Chapter 677: The Foot-Washing Maid Wants to Get to the Top (20)
"Madam, it's bad, Master... Master..."
Li Muting turned back to look at Lianlian and said in a heavy voice, "Speak slowly, what happened to Master?"
"Master is coming." Lianlian patted her chest and looked at Shi Yi's back in horror. The sharp knife was so long that it almost pierced into Shi Yi's body.
"Put it away." Li Muting raised her voice a little, and the sharp knife disappeared quietly. The little maid standing next to her also disappeared. She looked at Shi Yi and smiled silently, "Some words should be said, and some words should not be said. You know it in your heart, right?"
A man of insight is a hero. Shi Yi swallowed and nodded.
Li Muting waved for her to come over. She hesitated for a moment and moved her feet.
When Zong Ying and Wu'er rushed over, they saw the scene where the eldest wife Li Muting was holding Shi Yi and crying softly. Zong Ying frowned and was about to ask, but Lianlian knelt on the ground and choked, "The eldest wife has been sad for the young master these days, but she was afraid that you would know, so she cried secretly. Today, when she saw Shi Yi coming to find her, the eldest wife was sad again and cried for a while."
"Muting," Zong Ying called her name softly, his eyes were so deep, "you have worked hard these days."
"Master." Li Muting crawled into his arms, hugged his waist tightly, and wet his robe with hot tears, "Master, these are what Muting should do, but Muting really regrets it, too much regret for not taking good care of Bao..."
Everyone present knew who she didn't say it was, and Zong Ying also knew it. He put his hands on her shoulders and said in a low voice, "It's all over, Bao... Let him rest in peace as soon as possible."
When the eldest wife and Zong Ying were talking, Lianlian's eyes were fixed on Shi Yi. Shi Yi wanted to convey a little information to Wu'er with his eyes.
Shi Yi knew that the eldest wife would not let him go back easily. When he was thinking about how to get out of it, Li Muting really spoke.
"Master, I brought Shi Yi into the mansion that day. She is smart and lively. If you hadn't wanted to leave her at the beginning, I would definitely not want her to leave. These days, I really miss Shi Yi very much. Can you lend her to me for some days?"
Since she had spoken, there was no reason for Zong Ying to refuse. Although Wu'er disagreed in her heart, she was powerless because of her status as a servant.
This time, she was really in a tiger's mouth. Shi Yi lowered her head deeply.
Seeing her resigned look, Li Muting relaxed her vigilance and didn't need to look at her out of the corner of her eye when talking to Zong Ying.
Zong Ying helped her walk into the house. Wu'er took a deep look at Shi Yi and hurriedly followed. Lianlian took Shi Yi's hand and went to the kitchen to help.
Tomorrow is the auspicious day for the funeral calculated by the Taoist priest. So, tonight, the servants of the Zong family are preparing for it.
Xia Garden's second wife, Lan Maner, is waiting for an important guest tonight.
In the middle of the night, her door was finally pushed open. Seeing the familiar person, she trotted a few steps and rushed over, and was hugged by the woman.
"I've been waiting for you for so long, and now you're here. You look like a dead person. " "What
are you talking about? You haven't written to me for so many days, how can I dare to act rashly?"
"Humph, it's obvious that you don't have me in your heart. If you do, you would have found out about me a long time ago.
" "Find out about you? What happened to you?"
As they were talking, the candles in the room were blown out, and the two of them moved to the bed.
"You really don't have me in your heart."
"My darling, please tell me quickly, what happened to you!"
"You don't even know about such a big thing in this city, where have you been fooling around these days?"
"My ancestors, don't keep me in suspense." The clothes were thrown off the bed and scattered all over the floor.
"Ah..."
"Don't... don't... don't..."
"Slow down... slow down... slow down...
" "I... can't stand it..."
The woman's voice came from the tent, and at the same time, her outstretched fingers were also pressed down by thin white hands.
"If you keep me in suspense, I will make you look bad at the funeral tomorrow."
"You are my ancestor."
The two of them were still in the deep night, unaware that the noise they had just made had woken up the eldest daughter Yuanyuan who was sleeping in the next room.
Yuanyuan shook Aunt Zhang's arm, but she didn't wake up. Hearing the strange noise coming from her mother's room, she was worried that her mother had met a bad guy, so she didn't even bother to put on her shoes and trotted over.
"It's so comfortable... I feel like a cloud in the sky..."
Yuanyuan heard her mother's voice and withdrew her hand from the door.
If her mother was bullied, she would definitely not say such a thing, so who was the person in her mother's room?
"It must be comfortable, you and I are old partners."
"Dead face, disgusting."
"Old partner?" Yuanyuan said to herself. Why has she never seen her mother's old partner before?
"Okay, pack up and go, or someone will bump into us."
"You little thing who's going to burn bridges after crossing them. You just used me and you can't even be gentle with me."
"It's not that I can't, it's that I put a sedative in the water that I gave to Madam Zhang, but I didn't pay attention to the dosage. What if she wakes up and runs into you, then our relationship will be..." "
I know, I know... Anyway, everyone knows that Mr. Zong's second wife has become a good woman... How can
she associate with someone like me..." "Lansheng, stop saying such sarcastic things. Leave early. I'll take you out." "
I know... I know... If I had known I would only stay with you for a short time... I wouldn't have come..."
"Don't be angry, I'll wait for you at the old place during the temple fair next month. It's up to you..."
Yuanyuan wanted to listen more, but the footsteps of the two people had already reached her. She didn't care about anything else and ran into her room, covering her head tightly with the quilt, and didn't even notice that the door of the room was not closed.
The person who came out of the second wife's room was more feminine than the other women. She was wearing a light blue dress, which made her look extremely gentle. She pinched her orchid finger and gently wiped Lan Man'er's face, and then said, "No need to send me off, just remember that you really miss me."
"Since you said so, how dare I not miss you." Lan Man'er held her thin wrist and put on a powder blue jade bracelet. "I know you've been short of money these days, this is a little token of my appreciation."
"Man'er treats me the best." The woman leaned on her shoulder and sobbed softly, but her eyes were extremely shrewd as they patrolled the yard, and finally fell on the room that was clearly illuminated by the moonlight and had a large gap. She gently pushed her shoulder, and her voice was filled with unforeseen malice and joy, "It seems that someone has seen us doing this."
