The concubine will not accompany you: General, Madam ran away again

Chapter 295
"Is there such a thing?" Mu Shuyao frowned slightly. Flower pickers are the most feared existence for women in this era. Whether it is a woman or an unmarried girl, as long as there is a little bit about flower pickers, there is only a dead end.

"En, miss, it's true, this servant is not talking nonsense." Hong Dou nodded vigorously, afraid that the two of them might not believe it.

Then he went on to say: "It's been about ten days. The farmer in front had a pretty girl who was ruined to death by the flower pickers. She was ruined to death. Originally, the girl's father once cried to others, Later, when someone asked, I changed my words and said that my daughter is suffering from a sudden illness."

Hongdou was only ten years old, and she was still a naive little girl who didn't know much about the world. She still couldn't understand these things. She had a puzzled look in her eyes, "I heard that the flower pickers left money."

"It's just heard, so it may not be true, right?" Hua Rui was dubious.

Generally there are flower thieves, and the daughters will think that they are unlucky. If they say it, they will lose their reputation. Those with strong hearts will think about how to remedy it, but if they are not married, they will not be clean, and they will definitely not be able to marry a good family. of.

"Yes, Sister Huarui, I didn't believe it at first, but something happened later." Hongdou's big eyes flickered, she turned to Mu Shuyao, and hurriedly explained: "This is really not a slave girl's nonsense. , Many beautiful ladies in this area have suffered, and the flower pickers are all looking for outstanding looks, even the servants in the previous villages, some of them have suffered, thanks to the ugly appearance of the servants."

Mu Shuyao almost spit out a mouthful of tea, and she said that about herself, besides, Hongdou is only ten years old, how perverted would be to attack a little girl, that is simply not human, after being caught, the root of her descendants must be cut off, so that It is cheap for such a person to be a eunuch.

"I haven't heard about it, and it hasn't reached the capital yet." Mu Shuyao nodded in confidence.

In this day and age, there are flower pickers, and no one would say anything about it, they just cover it up, and the news spreads unhappily.

And I mean, this flower picker has money, and every time he spoils his daughter, he will leave a fortune. With this money, why don't he go to the brothel Chu Pavilion, and insist on looking for the daughter of a good family, the money is really blatant irony.

"Miss, this servant brought me dinner." While talking, Wang Momo came in with a food box.

Xiao Hongdou's face immediately changed, and she didn't dare to talk about the topic just now.

"Not bad, I just happened to be hungry." Mu Shuyao responded.

The style of the dinner is not particularly rich, because she doesn't eat much, so she specially asked the cook to cook less. There is a large bowl of boiled fish, dried beans, a cold tofu, and a bowl of seaweed and egg soup , this can be said to be simple among the ladies, even Liu Wutong's dinner is four dishes and one soup.

"Princess, why don't I sing a little tune for you to relieve boredom." Hong Dou really thought that the princess was very good, so she suggested.

Mu Shuyao didn't talk when eating, because Wang Momo was staring at her, so she nodded, and took a piece of fish, spicy and delicious, it was one of her favorite dishes in her previous life, of course she would cook it too , but Wang Momo didn't allow it, she insisted that real rich men and noble women don't touch the spring water with their fingers.

Hongdou's ditty is very good. It's not from the capital city, it's Wu Nong's soft language from Jiangnan. The Zhuangtou lady is from Jiangnan. She is petite, fair-skinned, and speaks softly, but Hongdou still prefers her Father more.

"Hongdou, this ditty is from Jiangnan, isn't it? It's really nice." Hua Rui applauded Mian Zi.

Mu Shuyao felt as if following the sound, she walked into the gloomy and rainy scene of the Jiangnan water town. A few boat maidens in flowered cloth clothes supported a boat on the river and sang ditties. There were low bungalows on both sides of the lake. Many women were washing clothes by the river, beating the clothes with wooden sticks, and laughing softly.

For a moment, I was a little dazed. Even in my last life, I had only seen such a scene on TV. I didn't expect a little song to have such a great charm.

Hongdou then sang a few ditties until the end of Mu Shuyao's meal. Although she couldn't speak during the meal, some entertainment items were really good. No wonder the ancients often listened to ditties or watched operas in the teahouse. boring time.

"Hua Rui, go find a purse and put two silver coins for the red beans." Now that Mu Shuyao is not short of money, she always brings some broken silver stamped into various auspicious patterns to reward people when she goes out.

"Thank you princess for the reward." Hongdou did not expect to be rewarded by Qingli after singing a few ditties. She danced happily and helped Wang Momo clean up the table with winks.

"Princess, you just had dinner, why don't you take a walk around the house, or go for a walk outside." After Hongdou left, Mother Wang began to speak again.

She was watching from the side just now, and her princess ate a lot. Although she only ate a bowl of rice, she basically used up all the soup and a few side dishes. This meal of the princess can beat other officials. Miss eats for a whole day, this kind of food, how did you grow up in the countryside.

"Let's go, go for a walk." Mu Shuyao nodded.

The moonlight at night is strong, and the moonlight shines through the gaps in the branches, leaving mottled shadows on the ground. Qingli thinks of a poem, "On the top of the willow on the moon, people make appointments after dusk."

The breeze blew gently, and the branches swayed slightly. When they stroked their cheeks, they felt very comfortable. Qingli squinted her eyes, raised her hands in a balanced posture, sniffed the fragrance of flowers in the air, and felt the tranquility. Early summer night.

"Princess, look at the moon, it looks like a big silver plate. I remember it was already past fifteen." Hua Rui said strangely.

"No, I've been so busy recently that I don't have time to admire the moon." Mu Shuyao turned sideways happily, talking to Huarui and Nanny Wang behind her while walking.

After enjoying the moon and walking for a while to eat and drink, Mu Shuyao washed and rested under the service of Huarui and Wang Momo.

But in the middle of the night, Mu Shuyao, who had always been a light sleeper, was awakened by a sharp cry. At the same time, Hua Rui slipped into the inner room with her clothes on.

"What's going on?" Mu Shuyao asked in a deep voice, looking at Wang Momo who stumbled and ran in.

"Back to the princess, the screaming maid is called Bilian, because the screaming sound spread far away in the middle of the night, the maids and women in the rooms on both sides got up to look, and happened to see a black shadow coming out of the room, and they all panicked." I'm stunned, why can't this Bilian wake up now." Nanny Wang was still in shock.

After hearing this, Mu Shuyao's expression suddenly became solemn, "Hua Rui, go and see Bilian, if she has been caught in the smoke, and ask her what she has seen."

"But you're here, princess?" Hua Rui also thought of a possibility and hesitated.
