Chapter 72 (2/2)
Changxing Hou frowned: ”you're a little girl. Do you want to chop firewood and boil water?”
Don't mention the girl in the Marquis house. Even the servant girl who serves the girl won't do these rough jobs. His legitimate daughters, the eldest and the fourth, have been served by a nurse, two first-class servant girls and four second-class servant girls since their birth. They are also accompanied by many attendants sent by their elders. It can be said that they can't leave people for a moment. Chu Jinmiao, the fourth girl, was pricked by a needle when she was learning needlework. She would be tossed by everyone. She applied medicine and asked the doctor. Chu Jinyao has to get up early in such a cold winter, pick up firewood on the road, chop firewood, boil water and clean the yard when she comes back. Chu Jinyao is his own daughter! The Marquis of Changxing knows what life the eldest girl and the fourth girl live. That's why it's very uncomfortable to hear Chu Jinyao say so. What's more irritating is that the peasant family deliberately changed their daughter during production and let their daughter Chu Jinmiao, who should have been a peasant woman, enter the Marquis house to enjoy glory and wealth. The real Marquis has thousands of gold. It's just that they don't have a good environment in their house, They even ordered me to work!
Changxing Hou was furious. At this time, he had made up his mind to take the little girl in front of him back to the house, keep her name and follow the generation of girls in the family to be called Jinyao. As for the surname Su, leave it to the farmers' own daughter.
Chu Jinyao didn't know what Changxing Hou was thinking at this time. She was still seriously answering Changxing Hou's question: ”yes, my sister got married. I'm the only girl in the family. Naturally, I should do all the housework. Ah, my mother got up, I have to go back...”
”Don't go back,” said Changxing Hou. ”You're not su. Come with me.”
What happened later was very vague for Chu Jinyao. Su Fu, who had always been shouting, beating and scolding at home, shrank aside and dared not speak. Su Fu was angry and came to scold Chu Jinyao. Su's mother screamed at the top of her voice. Her brother Su Sheng also seemed to have become a quail. When she heard the news, her eldest sister Su Hui, who rushed home, suddenly fell silent and quietly looked at Chu Jinyao.
Chu Jinyao was afraid of such eyes. Later, she was taken away. She sat in the only gorgeous carriage in her life and leaned out crying to see her home. None of the parents who had lived together for 13 years came out to see her off. Only the eldest sister ran all the way crying and just stuffed her with a cloth bag from the window.
In the cloth bag are two washed cotton jackets and skirts, which are rare decent clothes at home. Chu Jinyao knows that if her sister gives these to her, she will be scolded by Su's father and mother when she goes back. If Su's father is angry, it's not impossible to do it. And my sister's husband's family, I don't know what to say.
Chu Jinyao had a good cry. Until she got off the bus, her eyes were red.
The carriage stopped on a flat ground. Chu Jinyao looked up and saw the majestic Changxing marquis.
Only then did Zhao know what the Marquis of Changxing had done.
Chu Jinyao stood in front of Zhao, yearning and shy. For a time, she didn't even know how to put her hands and feet.
However, her real mother swept her up and down several times and waved in disgust: ”take her out. It smells like dirt. It's really choking.”
Chu Jinyao was immediately embarrassed. There were no conditions in the village. In addition, she was in a hurry. She really didn't take a good bath. When Chu Jinyao had cleaned up and changed into clean clothes, she happily went to see her legendary biological mother, but outside the partition covered with smoke gauze, she heard: ”madam, you don't seem to like... Miss Yao.”
”What kind of lady is she? I don't know who she is when she comes out of thin air. The Marquis is really. Listening to the wind is rain. I don't know what cat and dog she has picked up. It may be that someone deliberately set up a game to deceive him.”
”Madam...” mother Zhang sighed. Mammy Zhang knew something about that year. When she saw Chu Jinyao, she thought, I'm afraid this is it. But she, an outsider, can see clearly. However, Zhao has actually hurt Chu Jinmiao as a daughter for 13 years. Now a daughter suddenly appears. For a while and a half, no one can accept it.
”Send her out. I don't want to see her. I won't have a daughter like her. Where's miao'er? Go and call miao'er!”
Chu Jinyao was already in tears. She bit her lips and left quietly.
After returning to the house, Chu Jinyao threw herself on the quilt and cried. The jade pendant from the small belt to the big one fell out, and the red flocs in it disappeared imperceptibly.
Qin Yi immediately decided that Lin Xining had a problem, and his problem was still involved. Ignoring the people around him, Qin Yi whispered to Chu Jinyao, ”follow the Lin family. I have something to do.”
Chu Jinyao came out soon. She whispered, ”what's the matter?”
Qin Yi's tone is unprecedented solemn.
”I suspect the Lin family is playing tricks. Be careful and follow the boy far away. I'll see what the Lin family is going to do.”
Chu Jinyao heard that Qin Yi asked her to follow Lin Xining. She was helpless for a while. She followed her cousin. What's the matter... But Chu Jinyao still hung far behind Lin Xining according to Qin Yi's instructions.
Chu Jinyao followed Lin Xining stealthily. When he came to a corner, Lin Xining suddenly stopped and talked to the boy. Chu Jinyao was quick eyed and hid behind the corner. Her back was against the wall and her heart was pounding.
”Scared the hell out of me.”
”It's all right. He won't find you. Even if he does, the Lin family dare not take you.”
Chu Jinyao felt strange: ”why do you have a Lin family? They belong to the king's family of huailing county and are the king's residence!”
Qin Yi sniffed lightly: ”the royal residence... If they don't say they are kings with different surnames, they are the Lords of the Qin family. What can they do?”
If Qin Yi hadn't lost his shape, Chu Jinyao would want to put his hand to block his mouth: ”what are you talking about? Royal, you dare to talk nonsense!”
”He has gone far.” Qin Yi said coolly, ”if you don't go out again, you will come out in vain.”
Chu Jinyao was startled and stretched out her head. After confirming that there was no one, she trotted to keep up.
Finally, Chu Jinyao felt in front of a yard like a thief in her own house.
Chu Jinyao vaguely felt that this place was out of the backyard, because there were not only men in and out, but also soldiers patrolling outside the yard. Chu Jinyao quietly asked Qin Yi, ”where is this?”
Qin Yi said, ”you ask me?”
Chu Jinyao was asked in silence: ”this... Didn't you ask me to come here?”
”This is your home.” Qin Yi said boldly without introspection, ”I don't know.”
”Alas, you...”
”Bow your head and squat down.”
Although Chu Jinyao complains about Qin Yi, his body listens to him unexpectedly. Before Chu Jinyao reacts, he has squatted behind the grass.
Chu Jinyao is so big that he has never seen such a battle. To be honest, she doesn't really want to see it. Chu Jinyao lowered her voice and secretly asked Qin Yi, ”what can I do now?”
”It's all here. Sneak in.”
”...” Chu Jinyao stared and scolded in disbelief, ”you really think highly of me!”
”It's all right. I'm here,” Qin Yi said. ”Do you see these people on patrol? They are divided into two shifts and walk around in half an hour. When they hand over their shift, the side door at the southwest corner is a dead corner. Run faster and you can slip directly into the corner door and into the yard.”
Chu Jinyao visually measured the distance. After a long time, she couldn't help saying, ”I... can't run over.”
When Qin Yi was in Datong, there was an army man who trained himself. He had trained soldiers for a long time. It was unexpected that someone couldn't run over such a short distance. He was so helpless that he had to say, ”I'll think about it again.”
Chu Jinyao looked at it for a while, bowed her head and asked, ”do you have to enter through the door? Is there anything particular about it?”
”Not really. But how do you want to go if you don't enter through the door?”
”I think I can climb over the wall.” Chu Jinyao visually measured the height of the wall and said, ”I used to climb trees. This height should be no problem. It's just that I wear too much today.”
Qin Yi couldn't answer for a while. He couldn't help asking, ”how dare you climb walls and trees as a girl?”
