Chapter 839

No matter what Lan Liu asked, He Youtian would use all kinds of excuses to prevaricate her. After a long time, Lan Liu began to wonder if something unexpected happened to her father.

Mei'er waited on Lan Liu to put on the clothes of a house slave, and said nervously: "Ma'am, if the master finds out, he will beat me to death."

"Don't worry, I won't hurt you, I just go home and have a look."

"But……"

Mel's eyes dodged.

Lan Liu didn't care, but just wanted to go home and see the situation while He Youtian was going to sacrifice to the rat pit. This was what she had been dreaming about every day for the past two months, and she had to go this time.

Masquerading as a servant beside Mei Er, Lan Liu lowered her head, holding a big basket in her hand.

"Where are you going, Miss Meier?"

"Oh, the second lady wants to eat buns, I'll take someone to buy some."

"Buns? But, Lan's bun shop has already..."

"cough."

Quickly interrupting the servant's words, Mei'er couldn't help but a layer of cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

"Why so much nonsense? Get out of the way, the second lady is unhappy after wasting time, I'm asking you!"

"Yes, yes, open the door."

After letting Meier out, seeing Meier and the strange-looking servant walking quickly towards the main street, the two housekeepers immediately sighed.

"The second lady doesn't know that old man Lan is dead?"

"How could it be possible to know, the master won't let anyone tell, and, have you forgotten what the master ordered? That matter will rot in your stomach!"

"Ah, blame me. If Miss Mei'er hadn't reminded me, I might have slipped up. I just feel sorry for the second lady."

"Also? Don't want to die?"

"Hey, don't talk, don't talk, just close the door."

Because these days are the days of offering sacrifices to the rat pit, there are not many people on the street, and even most of the shops are closed.

Pushing open the half-covered door suddenly, Lan Liu strode in. The dark room was quiet, even the table was covered with dust.

It seems that no one has lived in it for a long time.

"Father." Lan Liu clenched her teeth, "Where did He Youtian hide you? Even if you went to the imperial city to see a doctor, you should be back. You must be fine, you must be fine!"

Mei Er stood behind Lan Liu and looked at her weeping, her eyes were red.

Biting her lips tightly, Meier couldn't help sighing.

Perhaps it is best for the second wife not to know the truth, but if she can hide it for a while, she can't hide it forever. I can only hope that the second wife can accept the reality calmly after knowing the truth.

"Meier, you go out first, and let me be here alone for a while."

"Yes."

When Mei Er closed the door, Lan Liu finally couldn't help crying.

It seemed that he had cried out all the grievances and tears of the past two months, lying on the table, not caring that it was full of dust, and crying dimly.

Suffering from a sudden rustling sound coming from the inner room, Lan Liu quickly raised her head and stopped crying.

Wiping away her tears and walking towards the inner room, Lan Liu opened the curtain and was horrified to see a large group of mice gnawing around a person.

Terrified, Lan Liu hurriedly grabbed the broom behind the door and slammed it hard at the mice: "Go away, go away!"

The mice ran away in fright. Lan Liu looked at the scarred beggar lying on the ground, and hurried over: "Are you okay? Are you hurt?"

But the moment Lan Liu squatted down, the beggar suddenly raised his head and looked at the face full of eyes, which was terrifying and strange, and Lan Liu immediately sat down on the ground in fright.
