Reborn Concubine's Wife

Chapter 83
The wheels creaked and rolled over the cobblestone road, and Zheng Yu fell asleep in the sway, with his little head leaning on her shoulder little by little, snoring slightly.Zheng Ruo smiled and moved her body to make her sleep more comfortably.

Not long after, the carriage stopped.

"Are you home so soon?" Liu Xu had already asked Zheng Ruo's doubts.

The carriage stopped for a while, creaked again, and continued to move forward.

Zheng Ruo lifted the curtain to look outside, frowned, and shouted loudly: "Where is this?"

The coachman was taken aback by her sudden anger, and said in a low voice, "Go back to Seventh Aunt, it's Xiaoxia Courtyard."

"Xiaoxia Courtyard?" Among the lush green trees, the upturned eaves were hidden.Like a place where immortals live, it seems that the people who own this yard are either rich or noble.

No matter whose yard it was, Zheng Ruo didn't want to go, and said loudly, "Go back! Go back to Zheng's mansion!" It was an unquestionable tone.

"But..." The coachman was a little embarrassed.

"No matter who ordered it, go back immediately!"

Zheng Yu was woken up by her, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and asked, "What happened, Seventh Sister?"

At this moment, someone outside lifted the curtain of the car, glanced at Zheng Ruo and the others, and said indifferently: "Please girls get out of the car, the fragrant soup is ready."

Zheng Ruo asked with a calm face, "Where is this place?"

The person who came was a maid in her teenage years, she was covered in silk, which was many times better than what Zheng Ruo and the others usually wore.Hearing her question, she glanced at Zheng Ruo lightly, and replied in a lukewarm way, "It's Xiaoxia Courtyard, the county guard's other courtyard."

With just one sentence, Zheng Ruo froze in place like a thunderbolt.Did she still fail to escape the fate of becoming a concubine in the sheriff's mansion after all her calculations?In her previous life, she never entered the Sheriff's Mansion at all. In this life, she changed some things, so even this has to be changed?

Suddenly, she finally understood why Yang Zhi always kindly wanted to eat her drugged meals, and why Xie Wanying gave her hairpins saying that she would be a "noble person" in the future.Suddenly, she remembered that the sheriff's current wife is a house-filler, and this house-filler happens to be Xie Wanying's elder sister.The beautiful woman next to Mrs. Li was very affectionate with Xie Wanying. Thinking about it, they looked a little similar...

Mrs. Liu gave her gorgeous clothes, Zheng Wan and Zheng Ru were uncharacteristically quiet today...

It turned out that this bureau had already been laid out when Xie Wanying was a guest at Zheng's residence.

"Sister Seven, why did we end up in the sheriff's other courtyard?" Zheng Yu asked timidly, his face turning pale.Apparently, she also knew the notoriety of the sheriff.Her hand involuntarily grasped Zheng Ruo's arm, revealing the panic in her heart.As a concubine, even if she was really given to the sheriff as a concubine by her aunt, apart from her biological mother crying bitterly, who else would say a word of justice for her?She was terrified when she thought of the inhuman life she would live after entering.

Her helpless appearance made Zheng Ruo feel distressed. This clan sister was the happiest person in her previous life, but now she followed her into the Sheriff's Mansion to suffer.

Mrs. Liu is really too hateful!
Zheng Ruo was annoyed.She hated that Mrs. Liu sent herself and Zheng Yu to the wolf's den for her own sake, regardless of the affection of her relatives. She hated herself even more, because she had lived a lifetime and was still set into a trap.However, it is useless to say these now.

How to do?
Zheng Ruo did not expect the current situation.She was on all possible precautions, but she couldn't escape, what should she do?
Her face turned blue and white, and she could see that she was very restless.Can't be calm.

Liu Xu also leaned over and said worriedly in a low voice, "Girl, what should I do now? Once you enter this door, you can't get out again. Girl, don't go in..."

Zheng Yu also had tears in his eyes, looking at her expectantly.

Zheng Ruo calmed down at this moment.There was not only one maid standing outside, but also several guards with simple knives pinned to their waists.The coachman would not listen to her either, and running away at this time would be a dead end.

After thinking about it, she stuffed a gold leaf and quietly handed it to the maid, and asked softly, "Dare to ask my sister, is the sheriff here today?"

The maid who accepted her benefits, her face softened, she smiled, and said: "I'm not here tonight, I'm going to dinner at General Zuo's mansion, I'm afraid I won't be back until tomorrow."

Fortunately, he is not here tonight.

"Thank you, sister." After saying that, Zheng Ruo lowered her head and thought for a moment, then helped her hand to get out of the carriage.Zheng Yu tugged at her sleeve with some fear, Zheng Ruo turned around and said to her with a smile, "Sister, don't be afraid, Elder Sister is here."

Zheng Yu's frightened little face immediately calmed down, and his eyebrows and eyes stretched.He followed Zheng Ruo and got off the car.

As soon as they got out of the car, four maids followed immediately. They were handsome and powerful, and there were six guards with knives.Zheng Ruo glanced at him and thought, fortunately, he didn't run away recklessly just now.In fact, she couldn't escape in this situation.What's more, this courtyard was built on the mountain, even if it escaped the pursuit of those guards, it would still get lost in the woods.

Zheng Yu and Liu Xu followed her step by step.

A branch of the Lanjiang River was opened up by the county guard and turned a corner, becoming the inland river of Xiaoxiayuan.The whole garden is built around the inland river, surrounded by green mountains and green waters, with pavilions, terraces and pavilions, rockery and flowing water, it is simply a fairyland in Penglai.

But it's a prison.

The maid brought them to a small two-story building, and two fifteen or sixteen-year-old maids came out of it, greeted them with expressionless faces.

After confessing a few words, the maid left.

This is already deep in the garden.

"Girl, the fragrant soup is ready, please wash up." A round-faced maid came up and said.

"No need, I just took a shower this morning when I was at home." Zheng Ruo flatly refused.

"Girl," another maid with small freckles came over and said, "The sheriff doesn't like the outer clothes the most. Every woman in the sheriff wears uniform clothes." Her tone was a little contemptuous and disdainful , more to look down upon.
