Xiao Tao had no choice but to shout in a low voice: "Mi Niang, open the door quickly, it's me." I know you haven't slept yet. Seeing that there was no movement in the house, he shouted, "I'm freezing to death." Open the door, don't open it again, I'll kick it. ”

The voice of the young lady came from the room: "Wait a minute. ”

After another half an hour, Xiao Tao rubbed her arms and shivered, and the mother finally opened the door. Xiao Tao jumped into the house and shouted, "Why did you open the door?" Slowly. ”

The house was dark and there was no light, and Xiao Tao found the fire fold familiarly, and there was nothing in the house that she didn't know. Little Peach lit the oil lamp, and there was a light in front of her. The girl's face was a little pale, and she walked inside and said, "It's a big night, what do you do with the lights." If you have something to say, just say it to the moon. ”

Xiao Tao pursed her lips and smiled: "Just the moon, I can only say black words." You'll have to open the skylight with me and talk to me. What did you do sneaking around just now? I heard a commotion. ”

The young lady sat on the edge of the bed, her expression a little jerky: "How can there be." I'm rolling over. ”

"You're a monkey, huh? Turning over so much. Xiao Tao swept around, and suddenly saw a thick white cloth four fingers wide next to the pillow, and Xiao Tao reached over. Looking at it repeatedly: "What is this?" ”

The young lady reluctantly bent her lips and smiled: "Didn't you see it, a white cloth." For the pads of clothing. ”

"Clothes?" Xiao Tao looked at her mother, a light blue coat was tightly wrapped, and her sideburns were a little sweaty. Xiao Tao smirked, "It's hot like this in winter." ”

Saying that, Xiao Tao also sat on the bed: "I won't go back tonight." Sleep with you. ”

"Huh?" The mother was stunned for a moment, and her voice stammered a little, "I'm cold, you better go back." ”

Xiao Tao took off her shoes and lay inside, rolled over twice, and said comfortably, "It's not cold." It's not cold when we're in one place. ”

"No—it's not very convenient." The mother said quietly, still sitting on the edge of the bed without moving.

"Alright. What's inconvenient. I don't care how long we've slept in the same bed before, and I don't care about your teeth grinding. It's not convenient yet. Xiao Tao said and stretched out her hand to wrap her arms around her mother's waist, "Quickly put out the lights, lie here and let's talk well." I'm worried about it—huh? Xiao Tao touched her waist again, and asked in surprise, "What's wrapped around your waist?" So hard. As he spoke, he touched it carefully.

The young lady moved out, looking slightly nervous: "It's nothing." After a pause, he added, "Practice dancing and girdle your waist." ”

"Girdle?" Xiao Tao came to be interested, she had only heard of someone who would use a cloth to make her waist slim, and she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she was even more curious when she said this, so she simply dragged her coat down from behind. "How?"

The girl was in a hurry to dodge, and the force was a little too strong, and she was pulled by Xiao Tao, and the outer cloak was torn open with a bang, revealing the middle coat inside. Xiao Tao's eyes widened, and the waist of the young lady was tightly strangled, and it was tightly strangled, which formed a sharp contrast with the top and bottom, and the waist was out of shape. There were still a few protruding places, Xiao Tao went up and touched it, it was very cold, and he couldn't help asking, "What else are you wrapped in the cloth?" ”

The young lady dodged her eyes and said, "Iron." ”

"Huh?" Xiao Tao jumped off the bed in surprise and pulled the cloth off her waist. The young lady stretched out her hand to block it, but she couldn't stop Xiao Tao's hands and feet, and she untied the tightly wrapped white cloth in a few clicks, and it was really iron. Do you want to tie your waist and wrap it with iron? Xiao Tao shook his head: "This piece of iron is cold, and it is uncomfortable to die when wrapped in the stomach." How afraid women are of the cold. Saying that, he reached out to pat his mother's stomach, "Quickly rub it and loosen it." ”

The girl dodged to the side, the expression on her face was extremely uncomfortable. Xiao Tao pouted: "You're really weird today." How like a changed person. ”

The mother sat on the edge of the bed in a daze, trying to squeeze out a smile, but she just pulled the corners of her mouth with a pale face, and after a long time, she still couldn't disguise it, covered her face with her hands, and sobbed silently.

Xiao Tao panicked, put her arm around her mother's shoulder and said, "What's wrong?" You say. What's going on? ”

The mother didn't speak, just sobbed. Xiao Tao was in a hurry and kept asking. The girl finally gritted her teeth and said, "I-I have it." ”

"Got it? What's up? Xiao Tao was puzzled. Seeing that the pale face of the young lady was full of tears, she pondered for a long time, and finally reacted, and jumped up, "Huh? Whose? ”

"I don't know." The girl raised her head, but tears still rolled down her cheeks. Xiao Tao was so anxious that she shook her mother: "Are you going to kill me in a hurry?" What the hell is going on? Tell me quickly. ”

The night was as silent as death, except for the sobbing of the young lady and the howl of the wind outside the house. After a long time, from the intermittent narration of the young lady, Xiao Tao heard a careful look.

That day, the palace banquet lasted until the evening, and in addition to the singers and dancers in the palace, there were also several singers and dancers raised by the minister's palace who were also performing. At night, they were all a little drunk. After the dance, she walked around the neighborhood. Originally, she watched the six princes pacing alone towards the lotus pond area, so she also followed. Then he couldn't see the six princes, but somehow stumbled into a pavilion near a rockery, where the seven princes were teasing a singer. Seeing her break in, the singer ran away with a red face. She was about to walk away, but was stopped by the Seventh Prince.

The Seventh Prince leaned into the ear of the young lady and blew the wine: "I know you, the one who dances the best." "The mother was ashamed and ashamed to struggle, but she didn't dare to offend the Seven Princes. After a few tugging back and forth, the Seventh Prince ordered her to drink two glasses of wine and let her go back. After the girl drank the wine in a hurry, she didn't know anything. When she woke up, she found herself lying in a deserted house not far from the rockery, with blood under her.

"I don't really know who it is." The mother leaned on the side of the bed in pain, her face was like ashes, "I really wanted to jump into the lake and die, but as soon as I walked to the lake, I ran into the steward and came over." I had to pretend that I was okay and come back with him. ”

Xiao Tao held her mother's hand tightly, and her hands and feet were cold. Beast! Xiao Tao scolded in her heart, but she didn't dare to say it to make her mother even more sad.

"At first, I really wanted to die, but when I came back, I didn't have the courage again. This life is over like this, I am not reconciled. There was a trace of crazy struggle in the girl's eyes, "I'm really unwilling." "Kisuke baba.

Xiao Tao's heart was sour, and she took her mother into her arms: "Don't mention the dead or alive, those beasts are free, how can you go first?" ”

Mi Niang sneered: "I thought that this matter was over, but I didn't expect Kwai Shui to come for two months." Just once, that's it. What iniquity have I created? Why did God do this to me? Why? "My mother's teeth rattled, almost crazy. Xiao Tao didn't have any strength except for hugging her mother tightly, and she was stunned.

After a long time, Xiao Tao gradually came back to her senses. The Seven Princes? She hadn't heard of it, Xiao Tao gritted her teeth and said, "Who else could it be?" Nine times out of ten, it's the Seven Princes. It's still the prince, it's really done, using this means. ”

"I don't know." The girl's tears fell, "Later, I secretly inquired, the Seven Princes are the worst among these princes, except for the concubines in the palace, he will tease one or two." The emperor also disliked him the most. But he's still the same. ”

"This kind of person, why doesn't God thunder and kill him!" Little Peach is almost on fire. Although as a maidservant, singer and dancer, they are all lowly. It is also a duty to accompany the dignitaries and dignitaries. But after all, Mi Niang is from Hefu, and it is not the turn of others to bully. Even the dragon son and grandson of the Ninety-Five Venerable can't treat people like this.

"People are princes, we are just slaves, what can we do? God was born from us, it is not fair. The mother said sadly, "I just want to get rid of the meat in my stomach as soon as possible." Otherwise, the He family wouldn't want me. What more face do I have to live? ”

"So you're girded?" Xiao Tao finally understood the reason why the girl tossed herself.

The mother nodded: "I can only try, I heard that if you strangle it so hard, you may be able to strangle it." As he spoke, he looked at Xiao Tao's eyes glowing, "Can you help me get it together?" The young lady stuffed the white cloth on the bed to Xiao Tao, "Xiao Tao, please, help me get it off, get it off, okay?" ”

Xiao Tao looked at the painful appearance of the young lady and was a little unbearable, and took the white cloth: "How to get it?" ”

The young lady got out of bed, pointed to the pillar in the room and said, "Tie one end of this cloth to the pillar, wrap it around my waist, and then you pull the other end hard, I don't believe that I can't get it." ”

Xiao Tao hesitated and followed her mother's instructions and prepared the white cloth: "Can this work?" It's going to hurt. ”

"I don't care. As long as you can get rid of this pile of meat. The girl's face was shiny again, "Only when it falls off, can I be a person again." ”

Xiao Tao's hands are a little shaky, but what Mi Niang said is right, if you don't get rid of the child, how can Mi Niang live? If something like this happened to the He family, it was naturally impossible to go to the Seven Princes for a theory. In order to keep the lintel clean, will you drive the young lady away? Xiao Tao didn't dare to think about it, gritted her teeth, and pulled the white cloth hard.

The girl was wrapped in a white cloth and twisted, Xiao Tao sweated profusely, the end of the pillar also collapsed several times, the sweat on the mother's face was also dripping, her face was twisted due to pain, but her stomach did not move at all.

After tossing for a long time, Xiao Tao stopped his hand, wiped his sweat and said, "This can't be done." You can't get rid of it. After a pause, he said, "Let's go grab a few pills and get rid of them." "When Xiao Tao was in Yunwan Village before, I heard that some people were poor and couldn't afford to raise their children, and they could only use medicine to beat them when they became pregnant.

"Hmm." The mother nodded weakly, "But the Yaotai Pavilion is strictly controlled, and it is inconvenient for me to go out." ”

"I'll go." Xiao Tao hurriedly said, "I sometimes help the eldest lady go out to buy some things, but it is more free to go in and out." Tomorrow morning, I'll go and help you get the medicine. ”

The girl grabbed Xiao Tao's hand tightly and sat down on the bed. Xiao Tao and her mother lay next to each other all night, Xiao Tao didn't say anything about her worries, her own little things, compared to her mother, it was really insignificant.

Sleepless all night, Xiao Tao and Mi Niang didn't feel sleepy. In the morning, Xiao Tao got up and served the eldest lady for a while, then found an excuse that the incense pieces were gone, and ran out on the reason that she borrowed them to buy the incense pieces.

As soon as he got out of the door of the Hefu Courtyard, Xiao Tao ran directly towards the "Hui'an Hall" outside the Nancheng River embankment-
