v2 Chapter 249: Special Leah (2/2)
”Well, I ate two bites of apple pie casually on the road, but the taste was average.” Fortunately, Malcolm didn't look at this side, picked up the bottle, Leah hurried over, poured him a half glass of red wine, Mal Kom moistened his throat.
”I heard Wallace say you have a good relationship with Daisy.”
Leah was shocked at the words and thought Malcolm was suspicious of her. Then she listened to the latter and said, ”Do you know who she is walking closer to?”
”This ...” Leah hesitated.
”What's wrong, worry about telling me that you will be excluded from others in the future? But aren't you already excluded by others?”
Leah was a little surprised. She didn't expect Malcolm to know such things.
”Is it surprising that the preferential treatment I give you will naturally cause dissatisfaction among other people. They dare not hate me, so I have to pass this hatred to you who is closest to me, but then I can also know the manor. What are the unstable members, rest assured, I won't let them hurt you, haven't you found that the people who have had the worst relationship with you these years are gone? ”Malcolm drank the red wine in his glass. ”And I can rest assured if you work for me.”
Leah was not happy when she heard the words, but a bitter chill rose in her heart.
In fact, Laeri had let her peek into Malcolm ’s letter before. There was still a trace of guilt in her heart. No matter how other black slaves in the manor saw Malcolm, at least the latter was always good to her. Eyes dazzled by Malcolm. Although Leah still had black skin, her thinking was actually closer to the white people on the island.
This also made her a heterogeneous group. Leah sometimes felt that Malcolm understood her better than her compatriots, who played a role similar to father and mentor in her growth. Li Ya did feel a touch of tenderness in it.
However, it turned out that this turned out to be just her hallucination. Malcolm treated her differently, not really because she was special, but because she needed someone who looked a little ”special”.
”Okay, I'm hungry. Let's urge the kitchen to cook.” Malcolm paused. ”Yes, the weather has been relatively tide lately. Before leaving in the morning, I will let people take out all the letters in the study. Just bask in it, you can take it back at sunset. ”
”Okay.” Leah nodded, UU read the bookexited the study.
…………
Tonight, it is destined to be a sleepless night.
When the clock in the living room points to 12 o'clock, Rolla wakes up another maid in the next bed and tells the latter about their plans to escape. At the same time, the same thing happened in another room, and eventually there were more than twenty The black maids meet in Leah's room.
This is also almost half of the black maids in the manor. Except for the Laeri tribe, the remaining female blacks who are willing to escape are basically concentrated, and those who are worried about being arrested and fleeing are taken away by Lola. Tied up, gagged, to prevent them from telling the secret, and secondly, it was also for their benefit, or they would be punished if Lia and others escaped.
As for the male slaves, they do not live here, and other people organize and lead.
Leah's eyes glanced across the faces of the room, and they saw crickets, fear, and ... the desire for freedom, so the next moment there was no hesitation in her heart, she said, ”Let Let's break the yoke around our necks, sisters. ”8)
