Chapter 60: Return to normal master-servant relationship
"I only told Steward Chen during the day that someone stained my clothes with sludge and caused me to wash them again, and you have to use sludge to stain my clothes in the middle of the night, which is too much of a coincidence!"
Ah Yao deliberately hit the cherry during the day, just to provoke her and make her continue to attack herself.
After angering Cherry, Ah Yao found Steward Chen again and explained the situation to Steward Chen.
I thought that I would bother with Steward Chen, but I didn't think that Song Yi would help her a lot, and Steward Chen happily agreed to help her.
This is the scene where they catch cherries in the middle of the night.
At this time, the cherry seems to have understood.
"You did it on purpose, you deliberately left your clothes here to dry and let me come in the middle of the night to get dirty."
She was amused by Cherry's words, "You can really put anything on my head." β
Cherry hugged Steward Chen's leg and continued to accuse her, "Steward Chen, it's not me, it's her who framed me, it's her ......"
Steward Chen kicked the cherry away and patted his leg in disgust.
"Cherry, you have been in the palace for many years, and you should know how to punish others for maliciously framing others, right?"
"I, I ......"
"Someone! Pull the cherry down and beat him with thirty sticks, and then lock him up in the woodhouse and starve for a day. β
"Yes."
Several people immediately dragged the cherry away.
Steward Chen looked at Ah Yao with a smile, "Girl, Cherry is also fined, so can I go back?" β
"Thank you, Steward Chen."
"It's all as it should be."
Song Yidu went to find her in person, where did she dare not take care of A-Yao?
After Steward Chen left, Ah Yao also left the backyard.
After she left, Rong Qianhan came to the backyard.
He looked blankly at the clothes she had washed, and his heart was full of thoughts.
It's not that he didn't question what Su Yuyan said that day, but he was awakened by those words.
Ah Yao is indeed a person from the Prime Minister's Mansion, he should not be close to her, and he should not rely on her.
Sitting in his position, he has made countless enemies, and he can't have weaknesses, let alone trust anyone.
Therefore, he just took this opportunity to take her away, wanting to return to the simple master-servant relationship with her.
But tonight, he couldn't help but come to the backyard and see A-Yao.
Seeing that she is living well in the backyard, he is also relieved.
β¦β¦
The next day, the news of Cherry's punishment soon spread throughout the palace, and everyone didn't dare to provoke A-Yao anymore, and they all did their own thing.
Ah Yao also knew that Rong Qianhan had ordered that she was not allowed to meet with Rong Ziling, so she no longer passed by Rong Ziling's courtyard and deliberately kept her distance.
After being transferred back to the backyard, how to enter and exit the house freely became a problem.
If she still wants to find Zhao Huaizhi and her mother, she must go to Qianfu again.
But now that she has a bunch of unfinished work, how can she get out?
"A-Yao, can you do me a favor?"
The familiar voice made her quickly come back to her senses.
Xiao Cui, who was in the same room, covered her stomach and stood in front of her with an anxious face.
"What's wrong with you?" She looked Cui up and down.
"I, my stomach hurts so much that I can't straighten my waist, can you help me go to the ready-to-wear shop on West Street and get a dress for the side concubine?"
Actually West Street!
She was worried that she wouldn't have a chance to get out of the house, and now the opportunity came.
She nodded happily, "Okay! β
"Thank you."
She borrowed clothes and successfully left the Regent's Mansion and went straight to the Qian Mansion on West Street.
With the experience of the last time, she went directly to the back door of the Qian Mansion.
Zhao Xianglian had an iron chain tied around her neck, a child led her to crawl on the ground, and a child sat on her back.
The two children talked and laughed, and kept scolding Zhao Xianglian with unbearable swear words in their mouths.
A-Yao, who was standing outside the door, clenched her fists and resisted the idea of rushing in.
She looked around and found a rat under the wall.
She carried the mouse and threw it through the crack in the door to the two children.
Sure enough, when the two children saw the black mouse, they ran away in fright.
After making sure that they would not come back, Ah Yao entered through the back door and stood in front of Zhao Xianglian.
Zhao Xianglian raised her eyes and recognized her.
"Why are you here again?"
From the daughter of a wealthy businessman to the point where everyone in the Qian Mansion can be bullied.
She couldn't figure it out, what was Zhao Xianglian still doing in Qianfu?
She untied the iron chain around Zhao Xianglian's neck and helped Zhao Xianglian up, "Can I help you leave the Qian Mansion?" β
Zhao Xianglian smiled bitterly and shook her head.
"If you continue like this, you will be tortured to death by them sooner or later."
"I have already married into the Qian Mansion, even if I die, I can only die in the Qian Mansion."
I'd rather die than leave.
What is there in the Qian Mansion that is worthy of Zhao Xianglian's nostalgia?
She persuaded in a good voice: "If you die in the Qian Mansion and annoy them, they may even whip the corpse to relieve the anger, do you have to stay here and be angry?" β
probably has the experience of being bullied, and she especially wants to help Zhao Xianglian escape from the fire pit of Qianfu.
"Even then, I won't leave the Qian Mansion."
Zhao Xianglian's attitude was very resolute, so resolute that she became suspicious.
Zhao Xianglian has no heirs, the Qian family beats and scolds her at every turn, and the only reason for her to stay in the Qian Mansion is Zhao Huaizhi.
"Zhao Huaizhi came to look for you, right?" Yao asked.
Zhao Xianglian's eyes flickered, and she lowered her head, "I told you last time, I haven't seen him." β
"Impossible." Ah Yao calmly analyzed: "Qian Mansion treats you as a pig and a dog, you have no reason to stay at all, unless you are staying for Zhao Huaizhi." β
"I didn't."
"You look me in the eye and speak."
Zhao Xianglian didn't dare to raise her eyes, and always hung her head.
"You look up." Ah Yao shouted.
Zhao Xianglian did not react.
She grabbed Zhao Xianglian's shoulders and asked, "Where is Zhao Huaizhi?" Where the hell is he hiding? β
As if frightened by her excited appearance, Zhao Xianglian looked up at her timidly.
"Y-Why are you looking for Huaizhi?"
She gritted her teeth and replied, "Because he took my mother." β
"He took your mother? What's going on? Zhao Xianglian asked.
"You don't need to know the details, you just tell me, where is he?"
Zhao Xianglian saw that she hated Zhao Huaizhi, and shook her head again, "I really haven't seen him, and I don't know where he is." β
She could see that although the Zhao family did not interact with Zhao Xianglian, the status of the family in Zhao Xianglian's heart was still very important.
It is impossible to ask Zhao Huaizhi's whereabouts from Zhao Xianglian's mouth.
"I've sent a lot of people to look for him, and even if you don't tell me, I'll be able to find him soon, and when I find him, I'll definitely have him torn to pieces."
Her fierce gaze made Zhao Xianglian's heart tremble.
When Zhao Huaizhi was in Kyoto, he always caused trouble, and every time his family gave him money to clean up the aftermath.
Presumably this time it's causing trouble again.
Zhao Xianglian looked at her apologetically, "My brother is not a bad person, he is just young and ignorant, if he really does something, please don't hurt him, okay?" β
"He's not ignorant, he's just an out-and-out villain."
"No, I don't want you to say that about my brother."
She didn't bother to argue with Zhao Xianglian about anything, and finally reminded.
"Zhao Huaizhi can't escape."
After speaking, she turned around and walked out of the Qian Mansion.
After coming out, she has been standing at the back door of the Qian Mansion.
Catching a glimpse of a beggar sitting diagonally across from the back door of the Qian Mansion, she walked straight over.
When the beggar saw someone coming, he immediately cried out, "Madame, it's okay!" Give me something to eat! β
She took out some loose pieces of silver and threw them into a broken bowl in front of the beggar.
When the beggar saw the silver, his eyes lit up.
"Thank you, madam, thank you, madam, what a nice person!"
She crouched in front of the beggar, "Do you want more silver?" β
"Yes."
With the silver, there is no need to beg on the streets, of course he wants it.
She pointed to the back door of the Qian Mansion, "Did you see that door?" β
"Hmm."
"Come with me."
Ah Yao took the beggar to the back door of the Qian Mansion and saw Zhao Xianglian through the crack in the door.
"Remember what that person looks like, if you see her leaving the Qian Mansion, follow her, see where she goes, who she sees, and then go to the back door of the Regent's Mansion to find me, understand?"
The Regent's Palace?
The beggar was stunned.
"Remember?" Yao asked repeatedly.
"Okay, remember."
"As long as you help me do it, you will benefit from it afterwards."
"Yes."
Money can make ghosts grind, and silver is a good thing.
After instructing the beggars, Ah Yao helped Xiaocui get her clothes and went back to the palace.
In order not to miss the beggars coming to her, A-Yao spent the rest of her time in the backyard guarding in addition to eating and sleeping.
After waiting for two days, I finally waited for the beggar.
Seeing that there was no one around, she quietly went out the back door.
Seeing her, the beggar hurriedly reported, "Girl, I saw that the woman went to the entrance of Dongjiekou in the middle of the night, and saw a man there. β
"Do you see the man's face?"
The beggar shook his head, "The man was covered by the woman's face, I didn't see it clearly." β
"And what did you hear them say?"
The beggar thought about it seriously and said, "That man has been asking the woman for money, and asked her to bring it tonight." β
That man was most likely Zhao Huaizhi.
Tonight, it is to seize the opportunity of Zhao Huaizhi.
"I see, thank you."
After speaking, Ah Yao took out five taels of silver and handed it to the beggar.
The beggar happily took the money and thanked him several times before leaving.
After the beggar left, Ah Yao returned to the backyard and had been planning for tonight.
After rescuing her mother and settling her mother, she went to expose Su Yuyan to Rong Qianhan.
She wants to destroy the entire Prime Minister's Mansion and take a bad breath for her mother.
At night, Ah Yao continued to work in the backyard.
She counted the hours, and waited until the regent's palace was silent and everyone had rested, and then she slipped out of the palace through the back door and went straight to the entrance of East Street.
As soon as she arrived at the entrance of Dongjie, she saw several people pulling and pulling in front of her.
"What are you going to do? Let me go! β
"Help!"
It was Zhao Xianglian's voice.
She quickened her pace and stepped forward, but she did not immediately rescue Zhao Xianglian, but hid aside to figure out the situation in front of her first.
I saw two men grabbing Zhao Xianglian and trying to take her away from here.
"Lao Tzu spent a lot of money for you, if you make trouble again, don't blame Lao Tzu for being unkind to you."
Zhao Xianglian cried and shook her head, "What are you talking about?" I don't even recognize you, let me go, helpβ"
Syllable!
The man slapped Zhao Xianglian in the face, and warned viciously: "Stinky girl, dare to yell again, beware of Lao Tzu killing you." β
Zhao Xianglian didn't dare to shout anymore, glaring at the man, "You, who are you?" Where are you going to take me? β
