Aunt Zhang left, and the room suddenly quieted down, and the original suffocating feeling in the room finally dissipated.

Xia Cao'er sent Aunt Zhang out of the 'door' for Duan Qingming, and turned back, she closed the 'door', walked to Duan Qingming, who was still drinking tea quietly, and said softly: "Miss, you should rest early!" ”

However, Duan Qingming let out a long sigh.

She put down the teacup in her hand, looked at Xia Cao'er, and said softly, "Xia Cao'er, you have a lot to ask, don't you?" Now, you ask! ”

Xia Cao'er lowered her eyes slightly, as if she was thinking about how to phrase it. And Duan Qingming seems to have no intention of drinking tea anymore. She threw the teacup on the table at hand, and her originally plain and unwavering expression finally showed a crack.

Xia Cao'er stood in front of Duan Qingming, she was silent quietly, just looking at Duan Qingming deeply with a pair of big eyes, but she still didn't speak.

Duan Qingming suddenly smiled bitterly.

She looked at Xia Cao'er and said softly, "Are you thinking, why did I lie to Aunt Zhang, but didn't tell her the truth?" ”

Xia Cao'er nodded.

Duan Qingming said: "Xia Cao'er, I don't know if you have noticed the girl who followed Aunt Zhang......

Xia Cao'er remembered that the girl who had been following Aunt Zhang had been quietly and fearing ugliness by Aunt Zhang's side, and she didn't speak all the time, without any expression. It seems that he is just a person who is too quiet to see his existence.

Xia Cao'er thought about it for a while, and asked with some doubts: "As soon as Miss said it, the slave maid remembered it, that girl seemed to have a very raw face, and the slave maid was still thinking, when did this Aunt Zhang buy a new girl, and she didn't even bring Dong'er with her!" ”

Duan Qingming smiled coldly: "It's not that Aunt Zhang doesn't bring it, but she can't bring ......."

When Xia Cao'er heard this, she was stunned for a moment. She couldn't help but say, "Why? Dong'er is Aunt Zhang's personal girl! ”

Duan Qingming took the handkerchief in her hand and gently brushed the dust that didn't exist at all on her body, it was extremely cold, but she also said very lightly: "Because, that girl was 'inserted' by someone else to Aunt Zhang's side, and she couldn't refuse." So, wherever you go, you can only take it with you. ”

When Xia Cao'er heard this, her eyes immediately widened: "Miss means ......"

Duan Qingming didn't seem to bother to explain. She glanced at Xia Cao'er, and seemed to be very dissatisfied with the other party's sluggishness.

And Xia Cao'er, after all, is the person who has been with Duan Qingming for the longest time, and there are some things that she may not be able to figure out at first, but as long as she thinks about it in detail, she quickly understands what Duan Qingming means.

Xia Cao'er suddenly opened her mouth and said, "Miss, the slave understands...... Aunt Zhang listened to other people's words, wanted to think about it with others, and came to deal with the young lady and the eldest young master. ”

As soon as she thought of this, Xia Cao'er's heart began to feel angry: "This Aunt Zhang is too ungrateful, she actually forgot, how did her child be known by the master?" Miss has helped her so much, and now she is fine, and she has to help others deal with Miss......"

Duan Qingming glanced at Xia Cao'er lightly, and said indifferently: "A good bird chooses a tree to perch on, if she thinks that it is reliable and wants to take refuge in that person, it is not impossible, I don't blame her for this." ”

Xia Cao'er immediately exclaimed: "But that, where can you be a partner?" Aunt Zhang is really stupid, isn't she really afraid that she and her children will be treated by that person so that there is not even a little scum left? ”

Duan Qingming showed sincere joy at Xia Cao'er's enlightenment, and she nodded appreciatively: "Xia Cao'er has become smarter. ”

Xia Cao'er was praised by Duan Qingming, and she was naturally happy in her heart, but when she thought of Aunt Zhang, she still felt that it was not worth it, and she couldn't help muttering: "It's true that the slave has become smarter, but Aunt Zhang has become stupid." ”

The smile on Duan Qingming's face disappeared suddenly, she smiled, but her eyes were so cold that they almost frozen: "Everyone has to pay for their choices, and Aunt Zhang is the same." ”

When Xia Cao'er heard Duan Qingming's words, she immediately understood in her heart that Duan Qingming was dead set on Aunt Zhang and didn't plan to help her anymore. So, he wisely shut up, but stepped forward considerately, and said to Duan Qingming: "Miss, don't be unhappy for those who don't deserve it, you better settle and rest early!" ”

Originally, Xia Cao'er thought that Duan Qingming was sitting still because Aunt Zhang was angry about it, so she wanted to persuade her to rest, but Duan Qingming listened to Xia Cao'er's words, but suddenly shook her head and said softly: "No, I don't rest, I want to wait for Yuejia ......to come back."

When Xia Cao'er heard it, she immediately didn't understand, waiting for Yuejia to come back?

So, what about Yuejia, where did she go? Who did you go to? Why, Duan Qingming had to wait until she came back?

However, Duan Qingming didn't speak anymore, she just looked out the dark window quietly, but her heart was completely twisted into a ball—why did this Yuejia come back now? Don't she know how anxious she is?

Yuejia, have you done anything? Where are you now?

There is also Duan Yu, he has been taken away for half a night + half a day, but I don't know what happened to him now?

Alas, Yu'er, you must not have an accident - if something really happens to you, how will my sister live?

Duan Qingming naturally couldn't imagine that when she was so anxious and worried about Duan Yu's affairs that she couldn't speak, the main person she was worried about was tied up like a zongzi and thrown in a dark house, her face was 'covered' with a black cloth, and she couldn't see her five fingers in front of her. All around, quietly, in his mouth, there was still stuffed with something like a hemp kernel, and his mouth was numb and swollen, and it was extremely uncomfortable.

Whether in his previous life or in this life, where did Duan Yu receive such treatment? At this time, although he couldn't see with his eyes and couldn't speak with his mouth, he was angry in his heart - hmph, who dares to tie up the master like this, and when the master comes out, he can't beat you all to death.

It's just that it seems to have happened after Duan Yu went out, and now he is thrown on a pile of firewood and grass, not moving, and the wind around him keeps coming out, and after a while, he is so cold that he can't say anything about his suffering.

I don't know how long it took for the 'door' to finally be opened. Immediately afterwards, Duan Yu's ears came with a soft voice: "Yo, third brother, you see that this baby doesn't speak or move, is it already warped...... You know, he's worth two hundred taels of silver, and if he dies, where can I find those two hundred taels of silver? ”

As soon as the man's words were finished, he heard the sound of popping chestnuts in the darkness, and then there was a scolding voice from a person: "I said bald, you kid can't grow longer...... What is warped, how old has it been tied for a while, as far as you can speak, as soon as you open your mouth, you are dead, I said you, for these two hundred taels of silver, next time, can you say something auspicious? ”

The bald man seemed to be very afraid of this third brother or something, and at this time, he was beaten on the head, but he had a bitter face and didn't dare to say anything. I had to look at Duan Yu who was thrown in a corner with great resentment, and thought to myself, it was all because of this kid, he was going to be beaten when he opened his mouth, it seems that after a while, he will beat this kid twice and ask for some interest to come back.

And Duan Yu listened to the words of these two people, and his lungs had already exploded - these two people, because of two hundred taels of silver, they did kidnapping and robbery, this is too embarrassing, right? Especially the loss of Duan Yu, who is also a person who makes money by taking people's lives. Duan Yu figured it out, if he could get out of trouble, he must teach these two unsuccessful boys what is kidnapping and what is profit......

What Duan Yu was thinking in his heart, naturally no one could know, in the small space, there was no lamp, only the one named Third Brother, while scolding the bald man, he took the fire fold to light the oil lamp.

The small space, with the sound of the fire fold, lit up in an instant. The room was full of things, and suddenly it was clearly illuminated.
