Chapter 62: What Do I Want?

The steward stretched out his hand to open the box, and inside was a pigeon's egg-sized, gray bead: "This is the 'Night Charm Firefly' that Madame wants." ”

"Huh? I thought it was a beautiful thing when I heard the name, but why is it like this? Holding the box, Ling'er looked at the gray bead like a curious baby: "But my father said that there are many treasures in this world that look very ordinary, and only those who know it will become treasures." That's what happened to me. ”

The steward smiled: "Ling'er, touch this bead with your finger!" Seeing Ling'er's slightly frightened gaze, he smiled and comforted: "It's okay, you try!" ”

After listening to what the steward said, Ling'er carefully stretched out her finger and touched the beads lightly and quickly, and suddenly, colorful brilliance emanated from the beads, illuminating the entire room: "Wow, so beautiful!" ”

The steward smiled and reached out to close the box: "You come with me!" ”

To the disappointment of Madame Madame with the test results of the 'Night Charm Firefly', the gray beads did not shine with color. It stands to reason that this maid and the nursing home are going to be dragged out and beaten to death, but the third lady is begging bitterly, after all, she has grown up with her since she was a child, although she is just a maidservant, but she also has a few feelings, she can't bear to be killed like this.

The girl saw that the master pleaded for herself like this, and saw that she would kill her lover, but she stopped crying, and kowtowed to the third lady respectfully: "Miss, Qianqian can't accompany Miss for a lifetime!" Please take care of yourself! With that, she slammed headlong into the pillar, and if she did, she would surely die.

"Don't!" Faster than everyone else's voice, it was a figure.

Bang! The sound was followed by a person's cry of pain. Everyone looked at it, but it was Ling'er, who was standing not far from the pillar just now, and at this time she was sitting on the ground in pain with her chest covering: "Sister, Madame hasn't made a final decision yet, so you don't need to be like this!" Parents of the body's hair and skin, this is not right! ”

"But I ......"

Seeing Ling'er's pale face, she didn't have to think about it to know that she must have been injured just now, after all, it was someone else who hit her with a mortal heart. Mrs. said distressedly to the girl beside her: "What are you still doing, quickly help Ling'er up!" Also, call the doctor! ”

Ling'er was helped up, but knelt directly in front of Mrs.: "Madam, Ling'er knows that the rules in the building are strict, but this sister and the brother in the nursing home are happy with each other, can Mrs. spare their lives after heavy punishment?" ”

Madam looked at Ling'er and shook her head: "Ling'er, the family has family rules, if this matter is not handled well, I am afraid that there will be chaos in this family in the future." ”

"That's why Ling'er asked Mrs. to punish them heavily, after all, they violated the family rules and should not be spared. It's just that after the punishment, let them live, but also reflect the benevolence of the landlord and the wife, everyone knows that the landlord and the lady are the most amiable, but they will work harder to do their part and dare not mess around. Husband, God has the virtue of a good life, please spare them! ”

Seeing that Ling'er's face was already pale in pain but still pleading, and the three ladies were also crying on the side, the lady was also embarrassed, just when she didn't know what to do, Yiwei's voice suddenly came: "Steward, send these two people to the torture room, if they don't die, they will be driven out of Zhuangzi, and they will never come back!" As soon as this sentence came out, it was equivalent to sparing the death penalty of the two.

After hearing Yikuo's voice, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, Yi Wei had already walked into the house, and when he saw Ling'er's pale face, his brows furrowed, and he walked over and stretched out his hand to help Ling'er up: "Nonsense!" ”

"Yes, Ling'er knows her mistake!" Ling'er obediently admitted her mistake, but she didn't want a pain in her chest, and after coughing a few times, blood stained the veil red. Yi Kuo's face was even more displeased, and he reached out and took out a pill and handed it to Ling'er: "Eat it!" ”

Ling'er didn't think much about it, and swallowed the pill directly, but the pill was a little big, and she was choked at once. Seeing Ling'er's appearance, Mrs. couldn't cry or laugh, so she quickly asked the close maid to pour a glass of water for Ling'er to drink, so it would be better.

When the pill entered the abdomen, a warm feeling emanated from the stomach to the whole body, and the stuffy feeling in the chest turned out to be like this. Ling'er looked surprised: "Huh? It doesn't hurt anymore! Thank you for the medicine. Speaking of this, she smiled even more happily: "The landlord is so amazing!" ”

Na Yigu just snorted coldly: "Don't think that I won't be angry if I say this!" Go back and lie down for two days, and don't run around for these two days! Otherwise, I will, I will hand it over to Madame to punish you!" ”

Everyone knows that Mrs. loves Ling'er very much, and when Yi Wei said this, he was also admitting that he was reluctant to punish Ling'er, and the people in the room couldn't help but smile. Madame even covered her mouth with a handkerchief and sneered: "Husband! I can't bear to punish Ling'er! If you want to punish your husband, do it yourself! ”

was not annoyed by his wife's words, Yiwei just smiled, and then said to Ling'er: "There's nothing wrong here, you send the 'Night Ghost Firefly' back first." Then go and rest! ”

Ling'er obediently took the box back to the study, and only after putting away the 'Night Charm Firefly' did she go back to the room.

The collision just now, Ling'er did not use internal force to resist, so she suffered a lot of internal injuries, if it weren't for Yigu's medicine, I was afraid that she would faint over there, even now, she could only fall softly on the bed.

Now the goal is to find it, but all this is too smooth, thinking back to what Jin Qian told herself, the character of the four people who failed in front of her, Ling'er smiled bitterly: "Are all the smiles full of traps underneath?" Or maybe you're just putting on a show? Then you think too highly of me! ”

Whether it was a trap or not, Ling'er didn't plan to use the 'Night Ghost Firefly' now, she didn't want to take this risk.

In the blink of an eye, another half a month has passed, and the day is gradually getting colder, and the water in the pool is faintly showing signs of freezing. Ling'er's body slowly got better under the care of the doctor in the building, and her skin began to become fairer, but no matter how much she ate, she still couldn't gain weight. Looking at Ling'er's little face that was red from the cold, Mrs. often felt distressed and rewarded her with a lot of clothes. And Yi Wei also ordered someone to raise a charcoal fire for heating in the study early, and she was not allowed to touch those things that were going to get wet. If she hadn't known that four sisters had died in this house, Ling'er would have been really touched by them.

In the evening of that day, Yigu put down the book in his hand and said to Ling'er: "I'm going to go out these days, you ......" Seeing Ling'er's cold and shivering all over, he smiled bitterly: "Forget it, you look like this, it's better to stay at home!" After speaking, he put his cloak on Ling'er's body: "If you're afraid of the cold, wear more!" ”

"I've been wearing a lot, and the doctor said that I have some congenital deficiencies, so my qi and blood are stagnant, so I am so afraid of cold, and I have been taking medicine every day, saying that it will be much better to regulate a winter." After speaking, Ling'er sneezed even more.

Seeing this, Yiwei shook his head: "That's it, go down and rest, I'll go to the fourth lady for dinner, you don't have to follow." ”

This fourth lady is the concubine who has only been home for a few months, and she seems to be in very bad health, so she only stays in her own small courtyard and does not come out, even the lady has not seen much of them. I just heard that she is a beauty, but Ling'er has not seen it yet.

Returning to his room and lying down, Ling'er couldn't help but sigh when she saw the piano on the wall.

Sitting up gently, she took the piano from the wall and put it on the table, Ling'er's fingers gently plucked the strings, and a faint, sad song spread out from her fingers: "Heaven and earth are long, my heart is entangled." This life lasts, and there is nothing else to ask for. If you can't ask for it, you can't give it up. In the afterlife, there is no end. Those who know me say that I am worried. Those who do not know me say what I want. In the past, I went back, the willows are still thinking about the present, the rain and snow are falling, those who know me are worried, and those who don't know me are said to be what I want......"

What do I want?

Ling'er smiled bitterly, all her life, these two lives, all she wanted was to live a peaceful life with her family, but she didn't want to play tricks on her, always throwing her into the whirlpool of danger one after another, so that she couldn't extricate herself from it. I want to shout, I want to call for help, but I don't know who to ask for help if I want to ask for help.

Thinking of the sadness, Ling'er leaned on the piano and cried softly: "Daddy, mother, Brother Yan...... Where are you? Ling'er ...... I miss you guys so much! ”
