Chapter 258: Painting a Prison Camp

This night really responded to the phrase "eventful autumn"!

She got up and walked to the courtyard, sat on the stone bench, looked up at the bright moon, and mourned in her heart the sorrowful poems of the Mid-Autumn Festival that have always been passed through the ages, so as to entertain and relieve troubles, and more to quietly miss her father, mother, sister and brother. Now, at the best of times, it's the best time to do this. After sitting for a long time and feeling the coolness, I went back to the house.

The next morning.

After Zisu got up, she went to see Sanxi first, and saw that she was sleeping soundly, but she didn't wake her up. In the past, Zisu got up and went out to fetch water, so that she could serve Yu Qi to wash her face and make up.

After experiencing that incident the first night, Zisu felt a little reluctant to go, I don't know if Yu Qi was at peace for a while, so she tiptoed to Yu Qi's house, wanting to see, so relieved. When I got inside, I saw Yu Qi sitting in front of the dresser, motionless, presumably getting up early or not sleeping all night.

Zisu didn't go in to disturb, and gently withdrew and went outside to fetch water. The water had just come up, and before it had poured into the basin, there was a sudden knock outside the courtyard door. She put down the basin in panic, walked to the courtyard gate in confusion, did not ask silently, did not open the door, and carefully looked out through the crack in the door. At this time, the people who were most afraid of the first night suddenly woke up and settled the accounts after the autumn, after all, a series of things last night had not been solved positively.

Fortunately, the person outside the door was Zhu'er.

Seeing that it was Zhu'er, Zisu breathed a sigh of relief and opened the door with his hands and feet. As soon as the door opened, Zhu'er greeted her with a smile, glanced in, and whispered to Zisu: "The girl hasn't woken up yet, has she?" ”

Zisu turned his head to look inside worriedly, turned back again, smiled bitterly, answered the answer, and asked, "Sister has something to do so early?" We're going to wash our faces and then go over to say hello to the old lady! ”

Zhu'er waved his hand and said, "You don't have to get up early today to say goodbye." The old lady gave a special order, saying that Miss Qi was frightened last night and asked her to rest for a while. ”

Zisu was surprised: "All the people in the four mansions have come to ask for peace?" Why don't you let our girl go? ”

Zhu'er said: "How can it, originally they received the word and spread it out, and the four mansions don't have to come." Earlier, someone came to you and said, "I don't think the door of your courtyard is open, but I don't think you got up." I thought, in a while, you will get up and fetch water, and I will come and tell you all about it. That's it. ”

Zisu had a look of "I know", and he was a little happy in his heart: That's good, last night's incident is at the juncture, if people from several prefectures gather to ask for peace, I don't know how many tongues I have to chew. Yu Qi stood in the past, so as not to be questioned. It's nice not to have to go and say goodbye.

After Zhu'er finished speaking, she had no intention of leaving, and kept looking inside.

Zisu looked at her and was a little strange, so she smiled bitterly and stood with her for a while.

Zhu'er glanced at it twice and said, "Sanxi didn't go out with Mr., right?" ”

Zisu shook his head.

Zhu'er said again: "That's the truth, if you go out with Mr., what do you ask others to say!" In the end, it's not Sanxi that people are talking about, it's you girls. ”

Seeing Zhu'er's long and short questions for no reason, I always felt that she had something to say.

Zisu thought about it for a while, and finally asked, "Is there anything else my sister hasn't told?" ”

Yes, Zhu'er has always been in the mirror in the past, and his consistent style is to say something, and leave after speaking. This time, it's not like the usual bamboo.

Hearing Zisu's direct question, Zhu'er's face instantly dyed red, "hey" smiled, hooked his eyebrows, and said, "I still can't escape your eyes." I'm embarrassed if I ask you. But that's what the old lady meant, didn't she? ”

Zisu said: "If there is anything I need to do, please ask my sister to tell me as you like." ”

Zhu'er said: "The old lady didn't sleep well all night last night, got up early, sat alone on the kang outside, we served, she didn't want it, and drove us out." Earlier, he told me to go in and tell me that everyone should not come to say goodbye, and he told me to come to Jinghua to thank you for a while, and wanted to ask you girls for something. ”

Zisu was stunned and a little frightened.

Zhu'er pulled a handful of bamboo inside, and then looked back, as if he was afraid that the people outside would see it, so he said, "It's the pearl that was scattered on the ground last night." The old lady said, "Take two and take a look." The old lady also said that she originally wanted to ask for it last night, but she felt that it was something that the grandmother gave to the girl, and she didn't want it. That's why I quietly asked for one or two, saying that I wanted to use them for face rolling and maintenance. ”

Hearing this, Zisu relaxed a little, but when he thought about Yu Qi sitting inside, how could he go and get it? If you tell the old lady's words to Yu Qi, I'm afraid she will be too careful. After all, this pearl was not given by the grandmother, but by the ghost mother mother underground! I just heard that the old lady wanted pearls, Zi Su Huang thought, could it be that the old lady was suspicious and knew that the ghost mother's mother was dating them?

Fortunately, Zhu'er said that the old lady wanted to beg for a roll of face. And for good reason.

Zisu thought for a while, and said with a smile: "Please go back first, and I'll send it to my sister later." ”

Zhu'er urged: "Don't bother! Go in and get it, and I'll be waiting for you here." ”

Just when he couldn't find an excuse to shirk, he suddenly heard a voice from Yu Qi from the inside: "Sister Su, is the water ready?" ”

Zisu was suddenly shocked, and responded urgently: "Just come!" He turned his face to Zhu'er and said, "The girl is awake." Why don't I bring the water to the girl first? ”

Zhu'er was helpless, sighed, and said, "Nacheng, let's wait for the girl to freshen up first!" But don't delay, get it early. ”

Zisu nodded "um". Zhu'er hesitated to leave.

After seeing Zhu'er leave, Zisu regrouped his emotions and went to carry water inside. When I entered the house, I saw that Yu Qi had walked out of the bedroom, and now he was sitting on the kang in the inner room, facing out of the window, stunned.

Zisu smiled, slowly approached, put the basin on the low table, and said, "Freshen up here?" Glancing at Yu Qi, I saw that she looked tired, her eyes were slightly sunken, and there was a faint layer of dark clouds around her eyes. Zisu was distressed, her eyes were hot, she rolled down tears, grabbed her hand, and said, "Why waste yourself." ”

Yu Qi smiled faintly, stared at Zisu, and said, "The old lady sent Zhu'er to call us?" Do you want to ask about last night? ”

Zisu comforted: "No, don't worry about it." The old lady told Sister Zhu'er to come and tell us that we don't have to go over to say hello today. There is no need for people from the four mansions to go. Don't think about it. ”

Yu Qi pondered for a long time, shook his head and said, "That's because I thought too much. And use such despicable means to support you. But under this roof, where can you hide? ”

Zisu said: "It's all over." No one asked, and we didn't mention it. When nothing happens. After speaking, he went inside to get a hand towel, and after coming out, he put the hand towel into the basin, and after passing the water, he scooped it up and twisted it again, screwed it up, and handed it to Yu Qi.

Yu Qi took the hand towel, wiped his face, and said, "Washing your face with cold water is to be sober." Since you don't go to say goodbye, you won't make up. Wearing these jewelry, it is very heavy, and it gives me a headache every day. ”

Zi Su didn't say anything, and when Yu Qi finished wiping her face, she took the hand towel and took out the dirty water in the basin and poured it. When I came in again, I saw that Yu Qi had changed his face, and he was much more sober and cheered up.

Yu Qi said: "I just watched Sanxi, I didn't wake up, let her sleep a little longer!" ”

Zisu said: "Breakfast is not good yet, I'll make a pot of tea." ”

Yu Qi stopped and said, "Sister, don't be busy!" "Climb up to the kang and push the window open by the kang to make it wider. Then, retreat to the side of the kang, take Zisu's hand, and let her sit down.

Zisu sat down.

Yu Qi turned her head to look out of the window, the window was diagonally opposite the courtyard door, she stared at the door intently, and said: "There were many doubts last night, I blame that I was upset and didn't ask my sister at the time, and I only remembered later." I want to ask my sister again, but I'm afraid of annoying my sister. Endure it all night, and my sister asked me to ask for a good time. ”

Zi Su said: "I didn't go into detail when I came back last night, and I was afraid of disturbing your heart." You don't ask, and I know what you want to ask. ”

Yu Qi glanced sideways, glanced at Zisu, and looked out the window again.

Zisu said: "You want to ask me how I came back with the second wife, right?" ”

Yu Qian nodded.

Zisu let out a sullen breath and said, "After playing "Luo Shen Fu Song", the old lady called you and said that she would give you a big reward. It just so happens that everyone looks at your table and watches the old lady give a reward! I found an opportunity to go out, first to see if Mr. Yao had gone, and after a look, Mr. was gone, and I expected that Mr. had gone to save people. Then, taking advantage of the lack of attention, I walked out of Zhongfu, ran all the way to Xifu, quietly entered, and ran to Shizhai to take a look, where it was dark and very quiet. At that time, I thought, my husband took Sanxi and my mother out. When I came out of Shizhai and happened to see Yu Yan and Yu Yuan, they rushed to the back door, and I thought, this is not good. At that time, Mr. wanted to take Sanxi through the back door, and sure enough, Mr. and Sanxi met them before they went out the back door, and they didn't succeed, and they were charged with digging treasure and stealing. When the situation forced me, I came out to relieve the siege. To be honest, I shouldn't have gone out to solve the siege, it's really stupid, but you think, if I don't go out, Mr. and Sanxi can't talk clearly, and Sanxi has an extra treasure box in his hand. Later, I asked the doorkeeper to close the door and not let it out, and I was worried that she was messing around, so I thought that I would tear my face horizontally and vertically, so it was better to come to the banquet to see you together, so that you could find a good excuse to shirk it, but I really couldn't shirk it, so I shook out the dirty things in Beifu and showed it clean. Before she went outside the West Mansion, the second wife of the North Mansion brought a group of people to come, and she said a lot of things to Mr. Yin Fengyang, she didn't dare to do anything to Mr., Mr. saved her, she knew, so she let Mr. go. It is not difficult to see that the second wife rushed to Xifu when she heard the sound, not for anything else, but for Sanxi, she knew what she had done and wanted to cover it up! He wanted to detain Sanxi with a dead face, and said that he would take it to Beifu. At that time, if the second wife really took Sanxi away, I was afraid that we would never see her again. I have been taught the methods of this poisonous woman. So, I didn't even think about it, and brought Sanxi and Mr. to Zhongfu. ”

After hearing this, Yu Qi said calmly: "It's a little hasty and reckless, and there is room to see it, and you don't have to tear your face with the second wife!" He added, "But it can't be helped." ”

Zisu nodded and said, "Along the way, the people of Beifu did not forgive, and Guiyuan and Yuyuan wanted to drag Sanxi away many times. I didn't let go. They were helpless. When I arrived at the gate of Zhongfu, the second wife still didn't give up, avoided Mr. 's eyes and ears, coerced and lured me, and said that Sanxi had done something sorry for the girl, and she had done something sorry for Beifu, and she wanted to take it back to ask clearly. I said I don't believe Sanxi is such a person. I'm afraid that the second wife will come to Heng, so the voice is a little louder, and you think you heard it inside. ”

Yu Qi said: "No wonder I heard you making trouble outside. It turns out that the second wife doesn't give up! ”

Zi Su said: "The general situation is like this. As for the part where my husband went to pick up people, I didn't participate, so I don't know why the ghost mother didn't come out. ”

Yu Qi said: "Fortunately, my mother didn't come out." If she came out, the people of the Zhuang Mansion found out that she was alive, and they tried every means to harm her. Thinking of this, I couldn't close my eyes last night, and I couldn't help but think of the Xianyuan Nunnery again, Master Bojing was killed by me. ”

Zisu said: "As I said last night, the matter has come to this point, and it is useless to think about it." Let's see what others have to say. ”

Yu Qi said: "What else can you say? It doesn't make sense to say that you went to Xifu for no reason, you really want to investigate, think about it! As for deducting us from the charge of treasure digging and theft, I don't worry, this pearl was not from Xifu in the first place. If you are afraid, if someone investigates the origin of pearls, it will be difficult to do. ”

Zi Su said: "Didn't the one in Dongfu Rolling Garden say that she gave it to you?" Just now, the old lady was about to ask for two bamboos...... "swallowed it back again, and didn't finish it." Originally, I wanted to hide the matter of the old lady Yu Qi asking for pearls, but when I was moved, I quickly said half a section.

Yu Qi seemed to hear something, and asked, "What is the old lady asking for?" ”

Zisu was embarrassed, and after all, he couldn't bear to deceive her, so he told Zhu'er's intention again.

After hearing this, Yu Qi's face changed drastically, and he got up from the kang and said, "The old lady is suspicious." Nervously pacing back and forth, thinking for a moment, he said, "Sister, I will send the pearl over." You immediately go to the rolling garden to find your sister-in-law, and give her a message first. She doesn't need to come right away. When I went to see the old lady, I saw what the old lady had to say. ”

Zisu said uneasily: "You are blind and nervous, the old lady is really suspicious, just ask you directly." Why bother? ”

Yu Qi Zhengse said: "Sister, Master Bojing of Xianyuan Nunnery died because of me. I don't want my mom to be like that! Mother has a deep hatred with Zhuang Fu, Zhuang Fu imprisoned her underground for decades, if the old lady knew that she came back alive to take revenge, could she be spared? Coincidentally, the old lady came to ask for pearls, and she avoided people's eyes, she must have found something. Sister, I'd rather be more single-minded than deceive myself and neglect one God. That's it. You go to your sister-in-law and make sure that she bites this box of pearls to death. ”

Zisu couldn't help it, so he quietly went out and went to Dongfu Rolling Garden to find the eldest grandmother. Here, Yu Qi was restless, dressed up randomly, the old lady asked for two pearls, she didn't pick them out, but picked up the whole box, trembling and went to Shouzhongju.

All the way out, Yu Qi prayed to the sky: I hope I am too worried!
