Chapter 52: The Death of Bright Moon
After this incident, the Rongguo Mansion returned to its former peace, since Huo Qingshang was demoted to the Zen Xi Temple, the Qin family was ill and relied on decoction all day long.
Perhaps this is the reason, Huo Jiuge has had a good clean life for a few days, and even Huo Qingwu, who has always been troublesome, did not come to trouble her anymore, probably because she was scared after seeing her methods of dealing with the Qin family's mother and daughter.
But this does not mean that Huo Jiuge and Qin's accounts are cleared like this, both of them are not easy to mess with, one night, braving the heavy rain, Mingyue ran out of nowhere, she knelt at the door of the Lotus Courtyard and begged Huo Jiuge to save her.
"Please, young lady, save the slave! Madame wants to sell me to the kiln, and ask the lady to save the slave and maid in the old days! She regarded Huo Jiuge as her only life-saving straw, and kowtowed regardless of any dignity, even if her forehead was broken and bleeding, she didn't care.
The kiln in her mouth is the most inferior place for Fengyue, only for some low-level people to vent their desires, and the silver earned every day is enough for a hungry stomach, and even if you are not careful, you will get some dirty diseases.
It's a place that's even more terrifying than hell for a woman!
Thinking that he had done so many things for the Qin family, and finally ended up with such a result, not only Mingyue couldn't accept it, but even the maids around the Qin family had a cold war.
Mingyue took advantage of the gap between the guards and mother's rest and nap, and ran out of the dark room, she knew that the only person in the entire Rongguo Mansion who could compete with the Qin family was Huo Jiuge, so even if she risked being caught and killed, she had to run to the Hexiang Courtyard to beg her for help.
After a stick of incense, Huo Jiuge walked out surrounded by the maids.
Mingyue was surprised and delighted, and before she could speak, Dongmei on the side spat at her, and said as if she looked down on her: "Yo! Isn't this Miss Mingyue, I thought you were eating and drinking spicy food in the crape myrtle garden, and you couldn't miss it, why did you still think of looking for our young lady today? ”
In the face of her mean words, Mingyue didn't dare to refute in the slightest, she looked at Huo Jiuge, who was the most conspicuous in the middle, the rain was much lighter than before, like a silk thread, separating her from the person opposite, and the bright yellow lantern shone on Huo Jiuge's body, making her more bright and delicate, but those eyes were terribly cold.
Huo Jiuge glanced at the wound on Mingyue's forehead, and then spoke: "It seems that you have also suffered a lot from the Qin family, but why did you think of me now?" If I had fought hard in the past, I might have been able to save your life, but you only remembered to come to me after such a big disaster, and you said it yourself, will it be too late? ”
Mingyue was completely unable to raise her head by her words, and she muttered: "The second lady is ruthless, if the slave and maid don't agree, she will take the slave's family, and the slave and maid have to listen!" ”
She put all this fault on the Qin family, saying that she was threatened by her to do things for her, she thought that this would arouse Huo Jiuge's pity, but who knew that after listening to her words, the other party just chuckled, and then shook his head slightly.
"Then if according to your statement, all the people in my Hexiang Courtyard have been threatened by the Qin Clan? If that's the case, wouldn't it be a blessing for me Huo Jiuge to live to this day without incident? ”
Mingyue was stunned.
Qiu Cicada also packed up all her things, most of them were some benefits she took from the Qin family, Qiu Cicada threw these things in front of her eyes, and asked her to roll with her things, and don't come here to disturb her young lady's rest again.
Seeing that they turned around and were about to leave, Mingyue panicked all of a sudden, "The slave maid also made the second lady's actions public for the sake of Miss, can Miss bear to watch me being sold into the kiln?" ”
After listening to her words, Huo Jiuge paused, but there was no moved look on her face, she turned her back to Mingyue and said: "You took her most beloved daughter to the bitter cold Zen Temple, she can be considered extraordinarily generous to keep you alive, if you are a smart person, you should find a decent way to leave, instead of begging me to save you here." ”
After she said this, she left without looking away.
The girl who closed the door in the end also looked at her coldly, and then closed the door mercilessly.
Looking at the belongings and jewels scattered on the ground, Mingyue felt a deep despair in her heart.
Huo Jiuge, who returned to the house, took the hot tea handed over by Dongmei, she didn't rush to drink it immediately, but held it in her hand to warm her hands.
"In the face of that kind of treacherous villain, Miss just let people send it out, so why bother with her?" Qiu Cicada didn't understand, after hearing Mingyue's voice, her own young lady must insist on going out and see for herself.
It's obvious that she is the first to sell her lord to seek glory, but now that something has happened, she still licks her face and begs her own lady to save her, I really don't know where she came from!
Huo Jiuge took a sip of tea and said, "The worse her fate is now, the more serious the consequences of betraying me will be. ”
"The Qin clan will definitely make some moves in the future, after this incident, I want to see how many people will die for her!" Huo Jiuge's tone was neither salty nor light, but Qiu Cicada and Dong Mei felt extra weighty when they listened to it.
Since the second room moved into this Rongguo Mansion, the people in the original big house have walked and run, but now Huo Jiuge is only left with Qiu Chan and Dong Mei, the two loyal maids, and the others are all people who rushed over from various courtyards.
There must still be people like Mingyue, but after today's incident, if they want to do things for the Qin clan again, they will still consider what will happen after they are discovered.
Qin's methods are vicious, but his own young lady is not a soft persimmon to be bullied!
It rained heavily one night, and the next day, the sky cleared.
After the girl who kept vigil in Ziwei Garden woke up, she went to open the window in the room for the Qin family as usual, so that fresh air could come in, but the moment she pushed the window open, she saw a person hanging on the beam, and she was so frightened that she couldn't stabilize her body, and tripped over the threshold when she ran away in a panic, and then fainted.
Qin on the bed didn't know what was going on, and after she put on a piece of clothing, she got up and prepared to check the situation.
At this time, a gust of wind blew outside, and the people on the beams of the house just turned around and took a face with the Qin family.
Mingyue doesn't know when she hangs here, her death is very miserable, because of the rain, her face is pale, but blood continues to ooze out on her forehead, and the contrast between red and white is extremely obvious.
Her eyes didn't close, and now she was facing the Qin clan directly.
Even though the Qin clan had seen the world like this, she was still frightened and fainted when she saw this scene.
The maid outside heard the movement inside the house and hurriedly ran in, and after a period of scrambling, she woke up Qin, but as soon as she opened her mouth, someone wanted to harm her, and the whole person fell into a state of madness.
Before Old Man Huo learned about this, he just shook his head, looking regretful, seeing that the Qin family couldn't take care of the affairs of the mansion like this, he handed over the power of the housekeeper to the third aunt Lin Shu, and at the same time asked Huo Jiuge to help manage the finances of the mansion together.
