Rebirth of the Merchant Girl

Chapter 154 Ecstatic
Aunt Zhang was terrified and struggled frequently, but was finally carried in and thrown on the ground roughly.

The mother-in-law tied her hands and feet tightly so that Aunt Zhang couldn't move, so Mammy Yu opened the brocade box, took out the silver needles, gestured on her body, and muttered: "Auntie, dear!" The skin is tender, I'm afraid I have spent a lot of thought on it. But the beautiful skin, what does the master want? The master is so kind to the aunt, I didn't expect that the aunt still hurt the master's heart. "

After thinking about it, she stuck the silver needle into Aunt Zhang's nail.

With ten fingers connected to the heart, Aunt Zhang was so painful that tears fell down, and she collapsed on the ground.

"This little pain, how can it compare to the pain in the master's heart?" Nanny Yu pierced the silver needles into her ten fingers one by one.This was not enough, so the old woman was asked to take off her shoes, not letting go of all ten toes.

Aunt Zhang was already groggy from the pain, her face was as white as paper, and she still couldn't figure out who found out what happened to her before.

It stands to reason that it happened 20 years ago, when the two met in private, they kept it secret, and no one knew about it for two full months.

Now who digs out the old things from that year, besides her, there is only that man!

Aunt Zhang was furious, if she died, she wouldn't be able to bypass him even if she turned into a ghost!

"Ah-"

Nanny Yu's father is a barefoot doctor, and he is very familiar with acupuncture points. He knows which places are not critical, but which can cause the most pain.

The number of silver needles in his hand became less and less, and the two women who had been holding Aunt Zhang around had already let go of their hands, making their backs sweat.

Aunt Zhang had hundreds of silver needles on her body. The pain caused her to faint. She was woken up again, but fainted again. The decent and coquettish come?
Nanny Yu took off the veil from her mouth, heard what Aunt Zhang was saying, and leaned over to listen.

"Who... who is..."

Hearing this, she couldn't help sneering: "If you want people to know, you have to do nothing. Do you think that what Auntie has done can be erased?"

Nanny Yu put away the silver needle and put it back into the brocade box: "That's all for today, no one brings in food, just pour her two bowls of cold water."

She got up and left, no longer interested in Aunt Zhang who was limp on the ground like a rag.

But when she came to the door, Nanny Yu stopped in her tracks and snorted coldly: "Aunt Zhang, the master doesn't care, but it doesn't mean that I, an old woman, don't care. Think about it tonight, what have you done to the master these years. If you If I don’t speak up when I come over tomorrow, how about punishing me for an extra quarter of an hour?”

Aunt Zhang was trembling all over, so she was punished for an extra quarter of an hour. Wouldn't that kill her?
No, Nanny Yu... will come again tomorrow?

Thinking of this, Aunt Zhang's eyes darkened and she passed out completely.

Xie Churou frowned when she heard that Aunt Zhang had a sudden illness and was sent to the west courtyard.

Others don't know, but she knows that the yard has been locked all year round, and the old people in the house are very jealous of it, and they will never set foot in it unless they pass by.

If Aunt Zhang is really ill, she should be raised in the Gulan Garden, how could she be sent to such a remote and deserted yard by her father?

There must be something inside this, but Xie Churou's eyelids are twitching, and there is always a bad premonition.

If she asked Mr. Xie specifically, she might anger her father.

But without Aunt Zhang, Xie Churou would undoubtedly have lost an arm, and was even more lonely. How could Xie Ruitong be compared?
"Go and inquire, be careful, don't let anyone find out." She ordered Zixi to do this matter, and only this confidant maid could reassure herself.

Zixi responded in a low voice, left the garden, turned a corner and went to the kitchen.

The woman in the kitchen doesn't often appear in front of the master, but she has the most contact with other maids and women, so it is undoubtedly a good place to inquire about news.

"Hey, Miss Zixi is here, what do you want to eat?" Every time Lai Lai in the kitchen sees her, she smiles to please her, but today she is still sitting on the small stool, holding a cup of tea in her hand, as if drinking Cozy, squinting his eyes and lazily glanced at the door, he was too lazy to even get up to meet Zixi.

Zixi sensed that something was wrong, these women were the most ruthless, could it be that Aunt Zhang was sent away for real?

"Girl wants to eat Baiyun Cake, I will send it to the yard later."

"Miss Zixi, I'm sorry, I'm busy in the kitchen, and I happen to be missing a taste. I'm afraid I can't make Baiyun Cake, so I have to go outside to buy it. My wife's legs are not as flexible as before, and I really can't walk here. Let's go." Mrs. Lai obviously doesn't want to curry favor with the second girl anymore, she didn't get any benefits, and now she is covered with fishy smell.

Zixi raised her eyebrows, and took out a purse from her bosom: "What did Mrs. Lai say, why would the girl let you go for nothing?"

Looking at the bulging purse, Mrs. Lai finally stood up: "It's easy to say, it's okay to run for the girl."

She moved her two fingers, obviously this little money was not enough to cover that greedy face.

Zixi's eyes sank, she didn't argue with Mrs. Lai after all.

Arguing in the kitchen with a woman who is making a fire doesn't cost her anything.

"Mr. Lai is here, and help the girl bring some things back." Zixi called Mrs. Lai outside the door, seeing no one around, and stuffed two purses into her hand: "Tell me, what is it? If you say Yes, I have another one here."

She was playing with the purse in her hand, but this purse was flat. Lai's eyes sparkled, knowing that the two purses in her hand were not as good as this one, so she hurriedly told Zi Xi everything she knew.

"Aunt Zhang is really messed up, she doesn't know anything about the men outside the house." Seeing that Zixi's expression was not good, she gloated a little and said, "Don't look at Madam Yu's stern face, she usually keeps quiet, But he's a tough character."

Mrs. Lai looked around to make sure there was no one, and said in a low voice: "Madam Yu was chosen by the old lady herself. She was very close to the master when she was young. Originally, the old lady appointed the second housekeeper to be his wife. The illness is gone, and there are no children under her knees, she loves the master as much as her own son, and anyone who is unfavorable to the master will not be soft in the slightest."

She didn't dare to mention that the old lady's concubine who died in the west yard at that time was more or less less than the mother's hand, and she was a cruel and merciless woman.

Zi Xi handed the purse to Granny Lai with a cold face, and the latter held the purse contentedly, and didn't mind saying a few more words: "Let the second girl be careful, don't mention my aunt in front of the master, I'm afraid it won't work if you enter that yard." Might come out alive again."

Hearing this, Zi Xi only felt a chill down her back, and hurried back to report to Xie Churou.

Xie Churou vaguely knew what Aunt Zhang had done, and she also acquiesced.Because the shops that Xie Yanniang got are all profitable, plus Zhuangzi, it is several times higher than the dowry of her concubine.

It's just a girl born to a little mother, how can she go past her, she will have to be laughed at by Xie Ruitong.

She was unwilling, so she waited for Aunt Zhang to take care of this girl.

Who knows, Xie Yanniang was fine in the end, but Aunt Zhang paid for herself.

Thinking of what Mrs. Lai said, Aunt Zhang is looking for her former lover, she is really clueless.

It's no wonder that Mr. Xie will spare her when the Dongchuang incident is revealed!
Xie Churou bit her finger, and seeing Zixi eagerly waiting for her to make up her mind, she sighed: "I'm soft-spoken, and Daddy is angry, how can he listen to me?"

Zixi thought of the gloomy courtyard, Lai's words were vague, she could also hear that the nanny was a ruthless character, and Aunt Zhang might end up in her hands.

In order to protect herself, Xie Churou was indifferent, even unwilling to beg for mercy, Zi Xi couldn't help but feel a little chilled.

If something happens to her in the future, will the girl push her out as a target in order to protect herself?
Zi Xi suddenly became a little trembling towards Xie Churou, for fear of becoming the scapegoat.

Xie Churou only thought about how to pick herself off, and didn't realize that the most loyal maid had other thoughts.

"Girl, the master is here." A servant girl raised the curtain, seeing Xie Churou's complexion a little bit, she stood at the door at a loss for what to do.

Xie Churou took a deep breath, and took Zixi to Master Xie's study.

What should come will always come, how can she keep avoiding it?

"Daddy," Master Xie turned his back to him, making Xie Churou a little uneasy, and called out timidly.

"You're here," Mr. Xie turned around, but with a slight smile on his face, as if Aunt Zhang's business didn't exist at all: "Sit down, we father and daughter don't chat alone like this."

A maid brought refreshments, Xie Churou sat on the chair, feeling uncomfortable all over.

"Before you know it, you've grown up too." Master Xie's eyes were in a trance, as if he was nostalgic for the past: "At that time, you were just born, a small ball, and now you are slim and tall. I am afraid that you will marry someone soon, and then have children. Daughter, husband and son, I'm afraid you will drift away from me."

"No matter what daddy said, no matter where the daughter goes, she's still daddy's little padded jacket." Xie Churou felt more uneasy in her heart, and forced a little smile.

"Rou'er's mouth is always very good at talking, like your aunt..." Mentioning Aunt Zhang, Mr. Xie's complexion darkened a little, and soon he recovered: "Your aunt is sick, and the doctor said that the disease will be transmitted to others. Don't go to see her, you're not too sick. If you're not sure about something, you can either find Yumao or come to me. "

"Yes, Daddy." Master Xie was obviously warning her not to have any more contact with Aunt Zhang.

Xie Churou originally had this plan, how could she not agree.

It's just that Master Xie called her here today, and Aunt Zhang's business is just an appetizer: "You are not too young, it's time to go out. Your aunt has already prepared the dowry, only inferior to Tong'er. If I add a little more, it can be considered rich."

After listening, Xie Churou's heart beat like a drum.

More than once, she heard servants mention that there will be a noble lady in the mansion soon.

Thinking about it carefully, who else could this nobleman be besides the fifteenth prince?
