Chapter 7: Trading
"Okay, I promise you!" It can be seen that Gao Mumu thought for a long time before finally making up his mind, at this time, Gao Mumu was afraid that he had been carried away by desire and lost his reason.
After hearing Gao Mumu's words, the old man's face was filled with a bright smile, "Okay, the old man just likes to cooperate with a cheerful person like the county lord, so let's talk about it, tonight, it's still this place, you come to get the poison." ”
"What?" Gao Mumu began to feel a little worried when she heard this, and couldn't help frowning.
"But, it's inconvenient for me to come out at the right time!" Gao Mumu said with some embarrassment.
I saw the white-bearded old man and said with a smile, "That's none of the old man's business, what the old man needs to do is to hand over the poison to the county lord at the time of the unitary, as for the county lord's own affairs, then the county lord will watch and handle it himself." ”
After speaking, the old man beckoned to Gao Mumu, returned to the seat he had just taken, picked up a burden, put it on his shoulder, and walked towards the outside of Taibai Ju.
During the whole process, Gao Mumu stood in place, looking at the old man a little blankly until the old man left.
When the old man left, Gao Mumu came back to his senses, should he also leave. Because Gao Mumu seemed to have noticed that there were many pairs of eyes around, which were mixed with many unkind eyes, which made Gao Mumu feel a little frightened in his heart again.
So, Gao Mumu also turned around and walked out of Taibaiju quickly, as if he was afraid that he would not be able to get out if he walked slowly.
On the street, it is bustling, and today seems to be a good day to catch the market. If it were usual, Gao Mumu would definitely have to happily play on the street before he would give up, but now, Gao Mumu didn't have the heart to think about anything else at all. All she could think about at this moment was the white-bearded old man and the poison she wanted.
In this way, Gao Mumu returned to the Taishou Mansion in a trance, and when she arrived at the back door of the Taishou Mansion, she realized that she had arrived home, and she looked left and right vigilantly, and when she found that no one saw her, Gao Mumu took a breath of relief and flashed into the Taishou Mansion with a smoke.
After returning to his boudoir, Gao Mumu began to turn over his wardrobe.
After seeing Gao Mumu's somewhat abnormal behavior, the maid next to her couldn't help but ask in wonder, "Miss, which son-in-law are you going to meet, I have never seen you rummage through the wardrobe on weekdays." ”
"Go, go, I'm looking for something. Gao Mumu pouted at her personal maid, Chunni, and then did not speak, and continued to turn over the wardrobe.
Finally, Gao Mumu found the clothes she was looking for, which was a set of black night clothes, which Gao Mumu had never worn before. But this time, Gao Mumu knew that she had to sneak out at night, and if she wore the current Luo gauze dress, she would definitely not be able to, so she had to have a dress to wear at night, so that she could sneak out without being noticed.
Gao Mumu glanced behind her, and when she saw Chunni busy cleaning up the room and didn't pay attention to herself, Gao Mumu took the night robe out of the closet and put it under the pillow at the head of her bed, then stroked the bed with her hand, and said to Chunni with a smile, "Chunni, I want to eat He Ji's pastries today, you can help me buy some." ”
As he spoke, Gao Mumu took out a few taels of silver from his pocket, and he didn't count them, so he threw them to Chunni.
In fact, Gao Mumu just wanted to break Chunni apart, because if Chunni was there, it would be very difficult for her to take action, and now Gao Mumu already had a night suit, and she still needed a pair of light shoes that could allow her to walk without making any sound.
Chunni didn't know Gao Mumu's plans, but happily took the silver and nodded in response, "Okay Miss, I'll go." Then he turned around and walked towards the outside of the Taishou Mansion
Time flies quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it's time to come.
At this time, Gao Mumu had already changed into his light straw sandals, put on his night clothes, and quietly sneaked out of the Taishou Mansion.
At night, the streets are dark, except for the occasional house where the light still shines, and the doors of the rich and noble houses are hung with bright lanterns.
But the location of Taibaiju is quite hidden and remote, and if you want to reach Taibaiju, it means that Gao Mumu will inevitably go through a long and tortuous path.
As a girl, Gao Mumu is still very afraid of walking at night, but Gao Mumu knows that she must go through this part of the road, because only by doing this can she get the poison she wants.
"I hope the Buddha can bless me!" Gao Mumu raised his head, looked at the bright moon in the sky, and prayed to himself, while walking forward slowly, for fear of stepping on some pit or something.
In this way, Gao Mumu didn't know how long he had walked, and he began to walk by touching the wall. Because the road here is too dark, Gao Mumu can't see the road in front of her clearly, only in this way can she move forward boldly with confidence.
When Gao Mumu arrived at Taibaiju, it was already past the end of the day.
The door of Taibai Ju was still the same as in the daytime, half-hidden, but inside, it was pitch black.
This made Gao Mumu retreat again, is there no one in this Taibai Ju? If there are people, why don't they light the lamp?
Moreover, if you go in and meet some bad people and want to mistreat yourself, what should you do? You know, once the door is closed, you will not be able to run out lightly.
Thinking of this, Gao Mumu's body couldn't help but give a cold shiver, "No, it's terrible, I don't want to go in." ”
Then, Gao Mumu turned around and wanted to go back the same way.
But at this moment, another voice sounded in Gao Mumu's heart.
"Do you really want to give up? You can think about it, this opportunity is only once, if you lose it, you won't come back, whether you can leave the bear behind, it's all up to your watch tonight." ”
Gao Mumu was stunned, and the whole person stood in place, as if he couldn't move his legs.
In the middle of the sound, Gao Mumu turned around, looked at the door of Taibaiju again, gritted his teeth and stepped in, "Is there anyone?" Gao Mumu's voice was very small, as if he was afraid of disturbing others to sleep.
But the room was quiet, and there seemed to be no one.
This made Gao Mumu a little angry, "Really, didn't you say that it's okay, this white-bearded old man can't help but take Miss Ben too seriously!"
However, after finishing speaking, Gao Mumu immediately realized the current situation in front of him, if he didn't continue to wait for the white-bearded old man, then he wouldn't be able to get the poison.
Therefore, Gao Mumu still endured it and stayed patiently in this dark room.
At this moment, there was a sound of messy footsteps at the door of Taibaiju, which made Gao Mumu a little excited, "Is he here?"
Gao Mumu looked at the door with expectant eyes, wanting to see the figure of the white-bearded old man.
But after those figures appeared at the door, Gao Mumu was a little scared.
