Chapter 384 (1/2)
When Zhao Yingqi was conscious again, she just felt shaky. She knew that she was in a carriage and it was dark around.
She got up bleary and looked around. Unexpectedly, she didn't see her servant girl. She opened the curtain and was surprised. What immortal place is this?
Her eyes widened.
I saw a piece of golden outside. There were withered and yellow weeds and wild flowers everywhere. There was an image of withered and glorious. There were old weeds on both sides. There were several maple trees in the distance, a fiery red. The wild flowers along the road came with the autumn wind, bringing bursts of fragrance.
Looking up, I saw the clouds thin and the sky high. Looking out, I saw the light far and bright.
Zhao Ying's prayer was so big that it was just a small-scale activity in the capital. The whole person was shocked to see such scenery.
Then the horse driver said, ”this little girl is so tender that she can sell at a good price.”
Zhao Yingqi pricked her ears and heard that she was going to be sold! Sold it! It's gone! It's over!
Thinking, Zhao Yingqi was excited and finally wanted to leave King Liang's house! Go to a place without a prince and live a happy life! Ha ha ha ha!
Happy Zhao Ying prayed, lying on the window, looking at the beautiful scenery outside, shaking her cerebellar bag.
Xu was too happy and tired. Zhao Yingqi soon fell asleep again. Vaguely, she seemed to be moved. Then she lay in a hard place. Finally, she was awakened by cold and pressing.
She opened her eyes and saw a beam of sunshine from the high window in front of her, surrounded by a place full of sundries and bursts of musty smell, which made her sneeze directly.
Her tender little body was hurt by being hurt. She hurriedly got up and saw that it was a small bed spread with a broken mat.
The small bed is really broken and small, but it is a few boards on two long benches. It is very simple. With her action of getting up, the small bed is shaking, which scared her to cry out and want to jump to the ground.
But when she looked at the ground, she was stunned. She saw that the ground was not clean marble, but black, smooth as mud, and her shoes were missing.
Zhao Yingqi couldn't get off her feet in an instant.
At this time, there was a loud bang, and the shaky wooden door was pushed open. Then, I saw a thin black faced woman in her seventies standing there and drinking coldly: ”what are you still doing here? Get out and work! ”
Zhao Yingqi was stunned. She stretched her calf under the bed and whispered, ”my shoes are missing.”
”Will you die if you don't wear it?” The black faced woman said coldly.
Zhao Yingqi opened her pink lips and put her white and tender feet on the ground. She only felt greasy and disgusting, cold and cold. She bit her teeth and put her other foot down.
”Come out with me!” Said the black faced woman viciously.
Zhao Yingqi had to step on the cold black mud and follow the black faced woman out of the house.
When I went out, I saw that it was a dilapidated small yard, composed of three huts. What I was just in was the smallest one on the far left.
The surrounding garden was surrounded by a fence. The black faced woman took her into the middle room. She saw that it was dirty and messy. An old man of nearly 60 was lying on a chair with a loose skin on his face and a blind eye. When she saw her, she swept over with silver desire and excitement.
”Hey, hey, ah GUI, look, this is your daughter-in-law.” The black faced woman in her seventies pushed Zhao Yingqi in.
Zhao Yingqi looked at the old man of nearly 60 lying on the chair. His small face turned white and he was shaking all over: ”I don't want... I'm not his daughter-in-law...”
”You cheap girl.” The black faced woman gave her a hard push“ We spent three liang of silver to buy you back! Don't you dare? Hum, it's not right! ”
”Niang, when can I get married?” Said the old man.
”No hurry, no hurry.” The black faced woman said, ”the cheap girl doesn't want to see it, and you can't move. After a while, I'll get the money to buy medicine, and let her take the initiative to marry you.”
Zhao Yingqi was so frightened that she trembled and tears fell down.
”How dare you cry! Go to work! ” The black faced woman said and kicked her.
”Mom, don't break it. That's my daughter-in-law.” The old man lay in his chair and said with his mouth askew.
”All right.” The black faced woman snorted coldly and pushed Zhao Yingqi, ”sweep the floor for me, cook and wash all my clothes.”
Then he instructed Zhao Yingqi to cook and wash clothes.
But she was pampered and grew up when she was young. Where did she do these jobs? Cooking was so hot that her hands were bubbling. When she had to wash clothes later, the bubbles broke and fell into the cold and biting water. It was very painful.
At noon, he gave her a cold and hard steamed bread.
Zhao Ying could hardly eat her prayers, but she was so hungry that she had to swallow it.
In the evening, he was driven to the small room to sleep.
Her good clothes had long been taken away by the black faced woman. She was wearing burlap, itching all over. She was lying in bed, and lice bit her.
But she was too tired and was about to go to bed. She didn't want to. The door was pushed open with a ”bang”. She saw the black faced woman coming with a small black bamboo basket full of silk thread.
”Give me all these silk threads.” The black faced woman drank coldly, ”eat and drink for nothing! If you can't finish it, you don't have to eat tomorrow. ”
Then he went out and stopped the door.
Zhao Yingqi had to pick up those silk threads to make contact, but she was so tired that she only got a few and went to sleep.
The next morning, the black faced woman came in and saw that she had only got three, so she drank coldly: ”you useless thing, you can't even beat a few complexes!”
Zhao Yingqi was so frightened that she got up. The black faced woman came with a small bamboo stalk and pulled her calf. Zhao Yingqi cried in pain: ”don't hit me, I'll do it.”
Then he sat on the bed and wanted to talk.
”You have an excuse to be lazy! Get up and do the housework. ” The black faced woman gave a cold drink“ I'll call you again in the evening. ”
Then he picked up Zhao Yingqi.
Zhao Yingqi had to repeat what happened yesterday. She washed and cooked, had to sweep the floor, and didn't wear her shoes. She stepped on the ground and was scratched by a small stone. It was very painful.
Not for her at noon.
In the evening, she stayed up late and played a full plate. Just after it was finished, it was dawn.
