Chapter 167 Professional Dog Hole Drilling
After running a few steps, she suddenly thought of something and stopped.
She originally wanted to escape from the Duke's Mansion as quickly as possible, but the main gate was definitely not an escape route.
Because the Duke's Mansion was so huge, by the time she ran to the door, the Duke's wife would have returned from the kitchen and ordered the entire Mansion to be sealed off.
Moreover, if the Duke's wife had been more cautious and had made arrangements with the gatekeeper in advance, then escaping towards the gate would undoubtedly have been a trap.
So she decided to go to the back door first, which was very close to here.
She also knew the gatekeeper at the back door. She and Mu Qing would sometimes go out from here in the past.
I carefully walked around to the back door and was about to run in, but unexpectedly, the person at the back door was not someone I knew!
She quickly stopped and hid herself. It turned out that someone was guarding the back door!
Hu Xiner could only follow the base of the wall to see if there was a place where she could climb over it and get out.
An idea suddenly popped up in my mind. Why not go find Xuanyuan Jing'an?
No, this idea was immediately rejected. Even if Xuanyuan Jing'an was found, he was just a child. What could he do?
Although it seemed that everyone in the mansion had to listen to Xuanyuan Jing'an, he was essentially just a spoiled child.
One is her daughter’s lifelong event, and the other is her grandson’s temper. Does the Duke’s wife still need to choose?
Now we can only pray that Xuanyuan Jing'an can disrupt the Duke's wife's plan to some extent, even if it is just to delay it for a while.
Fortunately, the Duke's Mansion was so refined that they planted a large number of trees at the base of the wall, which gave Hu Xiner enough hiding space so that she would not be discovered by outsiders.
The Duchess would not publicize such a despicable act, but would just let the servants guard the door.
Therefore, the servants did not regard it as a very important task and sat lazily at the back door chatting.
Despite this, she still carefully moved through the woods, trying not to make any noise, and finally saw some piles of dog shit in a remote corner.
Dog shit is something that everyone avoids, but she was delighted because dog shit meant there was a dog hole nearby!
Just then, a rustling noise was heard, and the grass at the base of the wall suddenly shook violently, and then a person's head popped out.
This head looked familiar no matter how she looked at it. Hu Xiner hid her body behind a tall pine tree and finally remembered who this person was.
She watched Feng Ge crawl out of the dog hole.
The two looked at each other. Hu Xin'er exclaimed in her heart, "What a great guy!" and gave Feng Ge a thumbs up: "You've been professionally drilling dog holes for 20 years. You're really worthy of it!"
Feng Ge didn't expect to be caught, and he became angry and asked, "Why are you here?"
"I have to ask you something!" Hu Xin'er lowered her voice and taunted, "Why, Master Liu can't afford to support you anymore, so you come here to steal things?"
Feng Ge's expression changed, and he suddenly showed an aggrieved look: "Sister, do you really not know why I came here?"
"Don't call me sister, it's disgusting." Hu Xiner almost burst out laughing.
Feng Ge insisted on pestering her: "Sister, why are you always so cold to me?"
Seeing Hu Xin'er didn't answer, his eyes lit up and he asked, "Why is Sister here? She must be trying to escape from the Duke's Mansion, right?"
He wiped the stains off his face and took a step forward with a concerned look on his face.
Hu Xin'er was extremely defensive: "Stay away from me!"
"Sister!" Feng Ge looked like he was about to cry, "I saw Lu Yunjue go to find Master Liu, so I came here to look for you."
"What do you want to see me for?" Hu Xin'er felt a little overwhelmed.
She is still nervous about escaping from the Duke's Mansion, but with Feng Ge as a time bomb, how could she dare to crawl through a dog hole?
What if Feng Ge secretly attacks her while she is crawling through the dog hole?
Speaking of the purpose of looking for Hu Xin'er, Feng Ge hesitated again, and just grabbed Hu Xin'er's sleeve, wanting to say something but not being able to: "Sister, please don't abandon me."
Hu Xin'er didn't know what was wrong with him. He kept pestering her for no reason: "Let me go!"
"I won't let go! Sister, please don't always be so repulsive..."
He started talking and babbling again.
"Bang!" A muffled sound.
Hu Xin'er was a ruthless person who spoke little. She took out her inkstone and knocked another person unconscious...
On the other side, in the kitchen, a man was lying on the ground, covered in stains, his life or death unknown, with a half-eaten steamed bun in his hand, and white foam coming out of his mouth.
The Duke's wife said in disgust, "Are you all dead? You watched him run towards you and didn't even try to stop him!"
The servants were scolded harshly and were so timid that they dared not say a word.
It was clearly the Duke's wife who asked them to satisfy the man's reasonable needs and pretend not to see the man coming in.
They didn't know what was going to happen, they just followed orders.
Who would have thought that this person ate so much and still looked so full.
"Madam, do you want to call a doctor?" Nanny Zhou asked in a low voice.
The Duke's wife waved her hands impatiently. In this situation, it was definitely too late to call a doctor.
She pointed at the man on the ground and said, "Kick him in the stomach!"
Kick in the stomach, what is this operation?
But no one dared to disobey Lady Guoguo's order. A servant stepped forward tremblingly and kicked the man in the stomach several times.
Although the man was unconscious, his eyes were rolling back, and he was obviously still in pain, foaming at the mouth even more.
The Duke's wife kicked him hard in the stomach, with such force that everyone who saw it was shocked: "Didn't you eat? Kick him with such force!"
The servant gritted his teeth and kicked the man in the stomach several times.
The man suddenly began to twitch violently. The Duke's wife ordered, "Help him up now!"
The man started vomiting as soon as he stood up. After vomiting for a while, he finally stopped rolling his eyes, but his legs were very weak and he was choked to the point of losing consciousness.
The Duke's wife was so irritated that she nearly vomited. She exclaimed, "Madam Zhou, who are these people you've found? They're worse than beggars on the street!"
She vented her anger on Nanny Zhou, who could only smile apologetically.
The Duke's wife asked someone to help the man back to the room from both sides.
Seeing from afar that the servant guarding the place was not there, her heart skipped a beat.
However, when he walked in, he found that the person lying on the bed in the room was covered with a quilt. He couldn't help but feel fortunate that he had given Hu Xin'er a very strong drug.
She pinched her nose. If it wasn't for her daughter, she, with her current noble status, would never do such a despicable thing herself!
She had the man put on the bed.
Now, all we have to do is wait for Lu Yunjue to come back...
