Volume 2 Heroes Out of Boys Chapter 53 Ember Plays (3)

Gao Zihan is the only daughter of Master Gao.

Almost the entire Gao Mansion knew that she was the daughter of the eldest lady, but herself, under the care of everyone, thought that the kind-faced middle-aged woman in the family was her biological mother.

At least, for the past decade or so, she has behaved like that.

That was Master Gao's decision, and when Gao Zihan was born, the Shura Empire was in decline, and a new empire was about to rise. Shennong's admiration that all people are born equal, made him choose the latter in terms of the distinction between concubines and family integrity. And the difference between high and low brought by the daughter of the side room will eventually be smoothed out with the word "only daughter".

But the lies that everyone knows, how can they hide from Miss Gao, who is sharp-minded. What's more, there are many servants in the high mansion, and gossip is always unavoidable.

So Gao Zihan knew since she was a child that the woman in front of her was not her mother, so she was always hostile to this woman from the bottom of her heart.

Even if that woman wipes her tears now, she doesn't forget to add sweet soup to Gao Zihan's bowl.

Gao Zihan just looked at this woman blankly, and wanted to find a reason to blame her and blame her. But she couldn't figure out what all this could have to do with her. Gao Zihan felt that he could only blame himself, if he had grabbed his father at that time, didn't let him come forward, or walked quickly, none of this would have happened.

Regret is always useless, Gao Zihan loves to complain about the sky. So at this moment, she looked at the sweet soup in front of her, as if she had finally found some excuse, picked up the porcelain bowl and threw it at the woman in front of her: "My father is dead, are you still in the mood to drink sweet soup here?"

The middle-aged woman who was splashed with soup on her face looked at Gao Zihan in surprise, the soup flowed down her cheeks and flowed under the brocade clothes, she didn't wipe it, but suddenly stopped crying, and then laughed slowly.

"What a great little girl. Originally, on the face of Lao Gao's affection, I wanted you to die quietly and comfortably. But if you have to be so ignorant, then don't blame your mother for being ruthless. ”

She got up with a smile, smiling so cheerfully and sincerely, as if it wasn't her who had cried heartbroken a few breaths ago. waved his hand to rebuke the maid who came forward to wipe her, and calmly left the middle hall.

Gao Zihan was keenly aware of the word "death" in her words, the frustration and resentment of this day, and finally found a cathartic gap, scolded the departing middle-aged woman, got up and was about to chase, but was stopped by the maid who had low eyebrows and pleasing eyes in the past, and several people shot together and pressed her back to her seat.

Gao Zihan's face showed a vicious look, and he said fiercely: "Do you want to rebel?"

One of the maids, who was usually oppressed by Gao Zihan, immediately said loudly: "Miss, the affairs of the world, filial piety comes first, you are angry with the master, and you humiliated the lady, even if the little woman is from a humble background, she can't stand such a big rebellion." ”

Gao Zihan said disdainfully: "Heh, the little slut has a lot of skills, and he talks in one set." A slut who has never read a book dares to learn to speak the truth, which is really shameless. ”

The maid said: "I haven't read a book, but Miss has read a book, so Miss can't do something that makes me angry." ”

She repeatedly put the phrase "angry old man" on her lips, and it was really like a sharp knife stabbing Gao Zihan in the heart.

"Daddy was victimized by thieves, if you talk nonsense, I will cut out your tongue!"

"Now I know that it's not good to be wronged? You usually make something out of nothing, how can we have been wronged because of you? Moreover, the master was indeed angry with you. Everyone here today has seen it, and you have been crying and crying there, preventing us from treating the master. ”

Gao Zihan said confidently: "When I saw my father, my father was no longer good!"

"Still deceiving myself here, the lord was not out of breath at that time, and even had the strength to talk and laugh with the young lady, and finally we saw with our own eyes, the old man just heard that the young lady didn't know what to say, so he was angry and died on the spot. ”

"Slut, shut up!" the words fell, and with a "snap", the slap hit the maid in the face. Miss Gao shot out angrily, not only leaving a bright red palm print on her face, but also causing the corner of her mouth to bleed.

The maid held her face and didn't speak, just looked at Miss Gao and sneered.

At this moment, the middle-aged woman went back and forth, cleaned up herself, put on a black veil, and acted as a widow.

Behind her, there was also a child about ten years old, looking at Miss Gao with a cold face who looked like a trapped beast.

The middle-aged woman, as graceful and kind as ever, sat down in the main seat of the central hall and motioned for the child to sit beside her. These two positions have always been the exclusive seats of Master Gao and Miss Gao in the past. A few days ago, Miss Gao was still sitting here and coquettish with her father.

"This is your sister, call sister. The middle-aged woman spoke, her face full of color, as if she had survived a thousand years of frost and cold, and finally saw spring.

The young man just stared at Gao Zihan hatefully and didn't speak.

Miss Gao took a sip and said, "Where did the wild seed come from, and you deserve to call me sister?"

The middle-aged woman smiled and touched the child's head to show comfort, and then said to the maid, "Hit." ”

"Yes. With a promise, the maid raised her hand, and Gao Zihan said angrily: "You dare!"

"I dare. As she spoke, the slap was swung down, but it was harder than the slap she had received before. With a slap, Miss Gao's face visibly swelled.

Miss Gao only felt that this scene was so familiar, and this pain was like the next day. I vaguely remember that in that big dream, she seemed to have endured such beatings often.

Is she in a dream again?

Today's scene is still in the little brother's dream?

This thought was born, and the burning pain on his face seemed to dissipate.

It's a dream. This is still the dream of death. All the suffering is telling her to live well. This is the dream, once she wakes up, her father is still waiting for her at home, and he will complain that he is late to return.

If Daddy complains, let him complain, when he is old, he is always verbose, just listen to it yourself. As long as her father is still around, she is not afraid of those complaints.

Even, I'm looking forward to it.

Yes, this is the dream, she understands, she understands, and now, she wants to wake up.

She suddenly began to laugh, laughing and screaming, "I understand! I don't want to die!

Seeing her smile like this, the nameless fire burned in her chest, her face sank, and she said coldly: "If you don't want to die, can you not die?"

She has been waiting for this day for too long, and she often adds ingredients to Master Gao's meals on weekdays, or lights perfumes that are harmful to her body in the study. Those chronic poisons are too slow to act. She was ready to wait for a long time, but who knew that on this day, joy fell from the sky, and Master Gao was so understanding and sensible to return to the west, without bringing her a trace of suspicion and trouble, which really made her happy.

She was in such a good mood that she couldn't help but laugh happily before she said the fierce words.

So these two crazy women, at this moment, laughed together.

"Hahaha, hahaha, hahaha......"

"Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha......"

Their laughter was suddenly mixed with a weird dry laugh, one after another, like demons.

"It's so happy here, there is so much laughter, I like it so much, hahaha......" With a hoarse voice, a strange man wearing a smiley mask walked slowly from outside the gate.
