Five-year-old little girl: Mom has thousands of acres of material space
Chapter 93 Sharpening the knife in the middle of the night
Widow Xu suddenly remembered the carriage that came to the village ancestral hall a few days ago, and she became more and more certain that Mrs. Jiang was with a wealthy family. Otherwise, how could she suddenly have so much money to buy land and be willing to spend money to hire people to work at home?
I think back then, Ms. Jiang was just a widow who was kicked out by the Li family. She almost left the house and even the clothes she wore were in tatters. How could she earn so much with her shabby and poor appearance? Money?
Rascal Zhao was worried about Sister Chunmiao's wages, so he hurried home after having sex with Widow Xu.
At night, he called Sister Zhu Chunmiao, who had just returned home, to search carefully, but there was still not even half a copper penny.
Zhao Rascal did not embarrass Chun Miao this time and waved his hand to let the two sisters into the house. However, he secretly remembered that today was the first day the two sisters went to work at the Jiang family. After a while, he would go to the Jiang family to ask for wages!
He no longer hangs out with Widow Xu at night, but keeps an eye on the two sisters at home, fearing that they will take the money home and hide it without telling him.
However, at night, Rascal Zhao couldn't sleep.
Next door to the inner room was the kitchen, and his bed was next to the wall. Just as he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard the sound of sharpening a knife.
"Click - click -"
Especially in the dead of night, the sound is particularly clear and penetrating.
Zhao Laiyi suddenly got up from the bed with excitement.
There are two beds in the house. Mrs. Zhao sleeps in the other bed, and Chun Ya sleeps next to her, but Chun Miao is not in the house.
Zhao Lailai was worried. After hesitating for a moment, he got out of bed, took his straw sandals and went out to check.
The door of the kitchen was open. Zhao Laihai saw Chun Miao's thin and tall figure at a glance. He was about to scold the girl for not sleeping. Why did she come to the kitchen in the middle of the night?
However, before he could say anything, he saw Chun Miao standing in front of the stove, sharpening a kitchen knife. Water was boiling in the pot next to her, but nothing was boiling.
The moonlight shines into the kitchen through the window and falls on the thin figure. Most of Chun Miao's face is hidden in the shadow, and the expression on it cannot be seen.
Rascal Zhao shook his eyelids almost invisibly. He suddenly remembered that the old man in the village had said that some mountain spirits and wild ghosts often come down the mountain at night to eat people, and they only select men...
At this moment, as if she noticed something, Chunmiao, who was concentrating on sharpening her knife, suddenly turned her head and looked at him.
The moonlight cast a gloomy look on that gray face, and the kitchen knife in her hand shone coldly under the reflection of the moonlight...
Rascal Zhao let out a frightened "Ah" and ran back into the house.
He made such a big noise that Sister-in-law Zhao was awakened. When she turned around, she saw Rascal Zhao hiding in the bed, muttering something about eating human flesh alive...
Sister-in-law Zhao felt weird. She just thought he had a nightmare, turned over and fell asleep again.
However, Zhao Laiyi was so scared that he couldn't sleep. In his mind, scenes of Chun Miao's sinister appearance of sharpening a knife flashed through his mind, next to the boiling hot water, as if waiting for the raw meat to be put into the pot...
The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. He was so frightened that he didn't dare to close his eyes, for fear that as soon as his daughter fell asleep, he would sneak into the house and stab himself.
However, at dawn, what he worried about did not happen.
Chunmiao was still the same as usual, she would still lower her head in fear when she saw him. After finishing her homework at home, she took her sister and left the house.
Rascal Zhao couldn't help but start to wonder. Could it be that what he saw last night was all his imagination? Or are you having a dream or a nightmare?
After some self-comfort, Zhao Lailai completely calmed down.
When Chun Miao came back in the evening, he still grabbed her arm and searched her body, but still didn't find half a copper coin.
Zhao Lailai silently wrote down what day it was. In a blink of an eye, he saw Chun Miao's gloomy look squinting at him. The scene from last night could not help but reappear in his mind. Chun Miao's face was also the same as the one last night. The gray and white faces of sharpening knives overlapped.
Zhao Laiyi took a step back in fright and let go of Chun Miao's hand. Without even looking at him, Chunmiao went back to the house without saying a word, climbed into bed and started to catch up on her sleep.
Working at Jiang Xiaoxiao's house during the day, she only had time to brew medicine with sharpening water at night.
Moreover, Zhao Lailai was at home these days. She was afraid that the other party would steal the herbs she had finally obtained, so she could only go to the kitchen to cook the medicine while the other party was asleep.
She also specifically asked her mother not to tell anyone about this matter, and to try to avoid Rascal Zhao when taking medicine, lest he spoil the medicine.
Jiang Xiaoxiao specifically warned that the medicine must be boiled in sharpening water. Chunmiao could only sharpen the knife desperately. She probably made a lot of noise last night. She was so frightened that she turned pale when she found Zhao Lairai peeking outside the house. , but luckily the herbs hadn't been cooked yet and were hidden in her arms.
Presumably, Rascal Zhao didn't notice, but she had to be more careful tonight.
At night, Rascal Zhao heard the sound of sharpening a knife again.
"Click - click -"
Just as permeable as last night.
Zhao Laiyi quickly pulled the blanket over his head, comforting himself that it was a dream, but the sound of sharpening knives went straight into his ears, and he couldn't sleep at all.
He simply got up again and went to the kitchen to check.
Just like last night, Chunmiao was standing in front of the stove sharpening a knife, while water was boiling in the pot.
Rascal Zhao swallowed his saliva silently. Who in his right mind would sharpen a knife and boil water in the middle of the night when nothing was boiling in the pot...
After hesitating, Chunmiao, who noticed him, turned around and walked over. Her face was pale, her mouth opened and closed, but she made no sound.
Only the kitchen knife in his hand shone coldly in the moonlight.
Seeing Chun Miao walking towards him step by step with a gloomy face, Zhao Laigui finally couldn't help it and ran out of the yard screaming in fright.
When Chunmiao relayed this incident, Jiang Xiaoxiao held her stomach and laughed non-stop.
Haha, as expected, evil people are afraid of ruthless people, and ruthless people are afraid of risking their lives.
Zhao Laigui probably didn't dare to go home now, for fear that one day Chun Miao would stab him with a kitchen knife in the middle of the night.
Jiang Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes and lowered her voice: "...Sister Chunmiao, do you want your mother to live alone with Zhao Rascal?"
Chunmiao nodded vigorously: "I think so."
Thinking like crazy!
But her mother couldn't live without Zhao Bu Lai. No matter how Zhao Bu Lai treated her, she always had a trace of luck with Zhao Bu Lai. She thought it was because Zhao Bu Lai was dissatisfied that she didn't do well enough, so he beat her.
Jiang Xiaoxiao shook her head helplessly as she listened. These two people were really beaten by Zhou Yu. One was willing to be beaten and the other was willing to suffer.
If it weren't for the two sisters Chun Miao and Chun Ya, she wouldn't want to get involved in this matter.
There were many restrictions in ancient times, and it was difficult to reconcile, but the more important reason was Sister-in-law Zhao. As a native of ancient times, she had a deep-rooted feudal thought of treating her husband as heaven. Even if the opportunity for reconciliation was presented to her, she I'm afraid I will also hesitate.
For such a person, only a dose of strong medicine can completely wake her up.
