Chapter 1201: Counting the Count
"Sister Qiulan, I think you have been absent-minded, you must be bored in the room, aren't you?" Liu Xianxian came over early in the morning and said to Qiulan.

She has lived in Mu's house for more than half a month, and her body has almost recovered, but she can't do strenuous exercise yet.

Qiulan's heart moved, and she complained: "Muxi and my aunt don't allow me to go out."

"Madam Mu and Commander Mu don't allow it, we can still sneak out!" Liu Xianxian enthusiastically gave a suggestion.

Qiulan rested her head on her hands, her face full of doubts, "But, the front door and the back door are guarded by guards, and the walls of the courtyard are covered with barbed wire. I can't turn over, and I can't go through the front door and the back door. I can't get out at all!"

"It's easy to handle. I'll help Sister Qiulan lure those servants away! There are so many people at the front door that we can't move around, but the back door is very remote. There are only two servants on duty, so it's easy to lure people away!" Liu Patting her chest, Xianxian said, "Sister Qiulan, just leave the matter to me."

Half an hour later, the back door of Mu Mansion.

The girl's short scream suddenly rang out, piercing the silence of the early morning.

The servants on duty at the back door were two men in their 20s. When they heard the sound, they immediately became nervous and walked towards where the sound came from.

Behind a bush of low roses, Liu Xianxian sat slumped on the ground, covering her calf with one hand, pointed at the grass in front of her in horror, and said in a trembling voice: "Snake, there is a snake!"

A servant walked towards Liu Xianxian and asked with concern: "Miss Liu, how are you doing?"

Liu Xianxian said with a pale face, "I... seem to have been bitten, you guys hurry up and grab that snake..."

"Miss Liu, don't be afraid, I'll catch the snake out right away!" Another servant immediately went to the grass, sweeping the stick in his hand across the half-person-high weeds one by one, trying to scare the snake out.

The servant standing beside Liu Xianxian enthusiastically said: "Miss Liu, let me look at the wound for you! Don't worry, my family is a hunter and is good at dealing with snake wounds. However, you are really unlucky. After a while, realgar will be sprinkled to repel snakes, I have worked in the Mu family for several years, and this is the first time I have seen someone bitten by a snake!"

"Ah, good!" Hearing this, Liu Xianxian slowly let go of her hands covering her feet, lifted her skirt, and exposed her calves.

On the fair skin, a scratch was oozing blood. The wound was not deep, and the blood had almost stopped.

The servant was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Miss Liu, this is not a wound from a snake bite, but a sharp thorn. Are you mistaken?"

"So it wasn't bitten by a snake!" Liu Xianxian let out a long sigh of relief, "I was really scared to death. I was bitten by a snake before. Weeds are everywhere here. I only felt pain in my leg and thought I was bitten by a snake. The snake bit me, I'm really sorry, I'm sorry to trouble you!"

Seeing her like this, the servant was also embarrassed to be angry, scratched his head and said: "It's okay, Miss Liu's injury doesn't matter, as long as it doesn't get wet, a little golden sore medicine will heal. Miss Liu, we brothers still have to be on duty here, It's inconvenient to leave, can you go back by yourself now?"

Liu Xianxian stood up slowly, and understood: "I'm fine, I can just go back by myself, you guys go to be on duty. I'm sorry to delay your work."

Seeing this, the two servants gave a few words of comfort, and then returned to the back door to be on duty.

Liu Xianxian walked back along the way she came from, and seeing that Qiulan who had been hiding in the woodshed had disappeared, she knew her plan had succeeded, and Qiulan must have sneaked out just now.

She went straight back to her room, sprinkled some gold sore medicine on the wound, changed another dress, and went to the front door of Mu Mansion.

Of course, there were guards at the front door, but these people did not receive the order not to let Liu Xianxian go out. Liu Qianxian made up a few words and left the Mu's house smoothly.

She walked dozens of steps along the street and turned into an alley.

A beggar-like man wearing a straw hat was dozing off against the wall, with a broken bowl and a bamboo pole in front of him.

Liu Xianxian stopped in front of him, and threw a piece of silver peanut into the broken bowl with a clang. It was a gift from Mrs. Mu before.

The beggar immediately opened his eyes, took off his straw hat, grabbed the silver peanut, put it in his mouth and bit it, and said with fiery eyes, "Xianxian, is it today?"

Liu Xianxian nodded in disgust, and said in a low voice, "That's right, it's today. I will find a way to lure her to the place we agreed on. If you work hard, your benefits will be indispensable in the future."

The beggar laughed smugly: "Why do you have any worries about my work? Don't worry, the custody will make you the young lady of the Mu family!"

Liu Xianxian nodded sullenly, turned around and left.

Turning around this alley is the back street of Mu Mansion, and turning another intersection, I saw Qiulan standing under a sycamore tree looking around, saw Liu Xianxian, and waved at her from afar.

"Sister Qiulan, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting!" Liu Xianxian stepped forward quickly, panting slightly and clutching her chest.

Her body is still too weak, and she can't stand it after only walking such a small distance.

Qiu Lan said proudly, "It's okay, you came just in time! Well, before Mu Xi and Aunt find out that we sneaked out, I'll take you around the capital!"

"Thank you sister Qiulan. I heard that the snacks on Changqing Street are very famous. Let's go there first, shall we?" Liu Qianxian took her hand and begged.

Changqing Street is very close to Lu’er Street. It’s a place full of good and bad people. There are a lot of foreigners here. It’s a popular place for ordinary people. There are many stalls selling snacks from all over the world. The taste is authentic and the price is not expensive. Qiulan likes that too. place.

Qiu Lan frowned, nodded and said: "Okay, but, the place is a bit chaotic, mixed with fish and dragons, Miss Liu must follow me closely, and don't get separated."

Although it's not very reasonable to drag Liu Xianxian into the matter of Xue Chenxiang, but who let her come to the door by herself?

What's more, this Liu Xianxian took her out on purpose, with bad intentions!
Liu Xianxian didn't know Qiulan's thoughts at all, suppressed the excitement in her heart forcefully, nodded and said: "Well, I remember, I will definitely not cause trouble for my sister."

"That's good. You are weak. It will take more than half an hour to walk from here to Changqing Street. Let's hire a carriage!"

"Thank you, sister, for your understanding!" Liu Xianxian said in her heart, fortunately she had chosen the place in advance instead of asking Shunzi to follow her all the way.

When the two walked out of the back street, they saw a green shed carriage parked at the intersection.

The driver of the car was also wearing a big straw hat, was dressed in green clothes, and was waving a horsewhip in his hand. Most of his face was covered by the straw hat, making it difficult for people to see clearly.
