Chapter I
The Rongguo Mansion is especially quiet at night. The hustle and bustle of the winter day dissipated, and the huge mansion looked peaceful and peaceful at night.
In a remote courtyard, there is a simple firewood house. The cold night wind rustled, and the muttering of the night watchwoman not far away faintly reached the room.
ββ¦β¦ It's a cheap life! It's also thanks to the kindness of our wife that she let people take her back. If you want me to say, such a lowly girl who doesn't know the details, no matter whose child she is, she will be thrown out early and starve to death! β
"Not really. But you also know that Mrs. has not been born for many years, not to mention the young master, even a sister has not been born. Now that I took this fool back to the house, I also found out that it was the child born by the old man and someone outside, and he must have planned to raise it by his side. It's also a girl in the future, you and I don't care so much, just wait for it. β
The first mother-in-law took a sip: "Serve her? A girl who is cheaper than us, why! β
"Haven't you heard? Since she entered the house, everyone who treats her badly has physical problems and collapses on the bed and can't get up...... Do you still remember Mother Wang, who came into the house to give her a rancid meal the day before? I had diarrhea and collapsed, and I didn't eat dinner tonight and lay on the bed humming. Anyway, wouldn't it be good for us to take care of her? β
"That's also those people's lives, and it's not enough to say two words. Like me, I have been very healthy since I followed my wife into the house, there is no illness or disaster, how can they compare? Anyway, I've had some wine tonight, so I don't have to worry about her, so it's important to go to bed quickly. Yubi yawned and scolded and walked away.
The other woman sighed, pushed open the creaking door and walked into the house, looked at the little girl lying on the broken bed, sighed again, tucked the corner of the quilt for her, and turned out to go out.
When the door was closed again, the girl who had been on the bed with her eyes closed suddenly opened her eyes. Her eyes flashed red, and a black and gold glow dimmed, but in the blink of an eye, she was calm and normal.
Jia Xuan got up slowly, didn't look at the dilapidated place, and walked slowly to the door with his wet shoes. After listening carefully to make sure that there were no people around, he gently pushed the door open and walked out.
The cold wind howled.
She wrapped her old black cotton wool as a sandwich garment, dangled her legs in single pants, and walked leisurely towards the place where the servants lived not far away.
There was no one along the way.
The servants on night duty should stay by the master's side, even if they are lazy to eat, drink and gamble, most of them are in the inner courtyard, and no one will live in the corner of this remote courtyard. The placement of this place was originally a night rest place set up by Jiafu to show compassion and care, and it was not intended to be used. But there are always some creacherous and slippery people who don't serve well, and come here to sleep secretly at night - for example, the two mothers-in-law who take care of her.
Jia Xuan walked to the small courtyard against the wall, sent a few insects to find out the news, and when he learned that there was no awake person nearby, he walked to the room where the snoring was loud.
The weather was extremely cold, and the doors and windows were closed tightly. In the narrow window, a column of insects invisible to the naked eye penetrated in, silently, and even the passing cold wind could not detect their presence.
Jia Xuan stood in the corner of the house and sensed the whereabouts of the insects, pointing directly at the snoring drunkard, not allowing them to disturb the sleeping person next to him. After a while, the snoring gradually stopped, replaced by the uncomfortable humming of sleep.
When the training was over, Jia Xuan beckoned them back, and her little white hands reached out, allowing them to sneak back into her fingertips and disappear. Jia Xuan left the slowest runners to lead the way, looked back at the window where there was no more movement, and swayed back contentedly.
It's not that she has to hold on to these vicious people. It's that when she first came to this world, she had to practice her hands from time to time to maintain good communication with the insects, so as not to lose her skills.
She is reluctant to use ordinary people to practice her hands, and these vicious people have become the best starting material. And she didn't do it ruthlessly, just a little punishment. Why are these people in poor physical condition, and they can't get out of bed if she moves her hands casually, which is really a sin.
In the inner courtyard of such a deep house, it is annoying to remember the house going around. Jia Xuan has never been too lazy to remember the way, and leaves everything to the insects. The previous times went very well, and now it is naturally the same.
Who knew that something went wrong when I turned back this time.
Jia Xuan lifted his eyelids and looked at this strange place, wondering how this could be. Coldly smelling a corpse smell wafting from not far away, she couldn't help but curse angrily.
The insects felt her anger, and they lined up in a row and didn't dare to act recklessly. Rao was like this, Jia Xuan still glared at them coldly as a warning.
In her previous life, she cultivated into Gu Immortals, raised them with blood and qi, and devoted her efforts to live and grow together. I thought that I would break off my fate with them after death, but who knew that in this life, they actually traveled here with her, became a part of him again, and were stronger than before, the most spiritual and powerful Gu King group, and could be sent at will with her.
But they were all too powerful, and neither of them obeyed each other, and they often quarreled, and they often gave him a headacheβof course, since they could not be seen, they could not be heard.
She is now completely self-cultivating, and her body is so thin and weak that she can't cultivate for a while, so she simply continues to train and drive, so that they won't be too idle. It's just that I didn't expect them to be attracted by the corpse qi this time, and they came here on their own.
Jia Xuan's laziness to memorize the road does not mean that she has a bad memory, on the contrary, she has an excellent memory, but she is just impatient to spend time here. She looked around on tiptoe, and could discern the location of the broken woodhouse by the mere fact that the branches of some bare trees were high up. She was about to ignore the disobedient insects who wanted to burrow back into her fingertips, and she would punish them and choose her own way back. There was a voice from the gate of the cold courtyard, and it was approaching this way.
Looking around, there was not much to hide the figure, only the room where the corpse was placed could be hidden.
Jia Xuan didn't want to cause trouble at this time, so she quickly sent two insects into the house to investigate the situation, and she followed them and hid behind the cabinet on the left side according to the information they gave.
As soon as they were hidden, the two men who spoke entered the house:
"What should I do with this dead girl? It's weird to have corpses lying here, and I don't want to stay in this place any longer. β
"If it's for us to watch, we're for to watch. Just one or two nights of hard work, stay up and over, someone will handle it. β
"Who can guarantee that it's just a night or two? Who can guarantee that someone will come and help? It is said that Aunt Ming'er's Aunt Lin's girl will come to the house, and it is not appropriate to cause trouble, everything must be held down and wait for the girl to settle down. Who knows the day after tomorrow, will there be any more about the arrival of the wooden girl and the forest girl, and let people know that this girl is dead? Day after day, even in winter, corpses can stink, and if you really want to be blamed at that time, you and I can't escape it. β
A series of words were said quickly and urgently, Jia Xuan quietly went to look, and found that it was a maid wearing a peach embroidered peony silk jacket, still young with a double hairpin and a silver silk hydrangea, and a pair of jade pendants in her ears, which was a little more decent than ordinary girls.
The woman next to her was wearing a coarse cloth cotton jacket, looking at the wrinkles on her face in her twenties, and when she heard what she said, she pulled her nervously, and couldn't help persuading: "Charming girl, you are the person next to Bao Erye, and you are natural and generous in speaking and doing things." But this wall has ears, you still have to keep quiet, don't let anyone listen to it. β
The charming man raised his hand to slap the mother away, and said unhappily: "Knowing that I am next to the second master of Bao, you are not careful in doing things?" If I am implicated, I will inevitably be involved in the second master, but I will have your good fruit to eat! That being said, the voice is a little quieter.
Jia Xuan remembered that the second master in their mouths seemed to be the son of Jia Zheng in the second room, that is, her cousin who was now in the body, and was pampered by the family in the palm of her hand to take care of her eyes.
A good boy, raised like this, he is really not afraid of raising waste! Jia Xuan sneered, but couldn't help but look at the corpse a few more times.
