poisonous woman

Chapter 80
The silver mirror hangs in the black night sky, accompanied by Yun Han, and the moonlight sprinkles a boundless picture scroll of coolness, extending to a quiet hut in Ronghou Mansion, filtering the room through the screen window.

"Miss, let's eat." Qiu Shui brought the food with a bitter face, watching the lady kneeling in front of the Buddha, feeling bitter in his heart, both unwilling and distressed.

Rong Zhao watched indifferently as she took out one dish after another from the food box, but it was a pity that they were all vegetarian, and there was nothing she liked.I didn't feel hungry at all, and now I don't even have any appetite.

"Take it away, I won't eat it." She said stubbornly.

Qiu Shui paused, she also knew that these dishes were not to the young lady's taste, so she wanted to sneak in some meat, but unfortunately the two servants who were guarding outside took it away.

Sure enough, the wall fell and everyone pushed. When the young lady was in glory, which of the servants saw the young lady but nodded and bowed, and greeted her with a smile, wishing to be a horse for the young lady.Now that the young lady has only been locked up for a few days, they will talk about the rules.What did you say that Master Hou ordered the lady to come here to meditate on her past, and not to see meat in front of the Buddha.

Oh, isn't it just holding a chicken feather as an arrow!

She bit her lip, "Miss, you haven't eaten for a whole day, and if you don't eat any more, you will starve to death."

Rong Zhao stared straight at the Avalokitesvara enshrined in the altar, and slightly raised his lips, "Hunger can make people clear their minds, sober, I can understand some things."

It has been three days since I came to Jingxin Hall, and on the first day, Rong Zhao was full of anger. Being framed was not enough, and she was also grounded by her father.Blame him for not believing her, blame him for really punishing her.

On the second day, her anger slowly subsided, and she put the overturned table back to its original position. Looking at Avalokitesvara, she felt that it was not as disgusting as the previous day.But still dissatisfied, let her meditate on her own past, and she lay on the bed and slept.

On the third day, which is today, her heart gradually calmed down.For the first time, she knelt seriously in front of the Buddha and watched Guanyin quietly. Time stretched like silk, and she suddenly felt as if the hostility in her heart gradually dissipated.Questions that she hadn't thought of before will also inadvertently gather together, making her re-examine the matter.

Qiu Shui didn't know, so he poked his head and asked, "What do you want to understand, miss?"

Rong Zhao glanced at her and said, "I want to understand everything that happened recently, from when I was scratched by a cat until now. I always feel that there is an invisible thread between me and Aunt Rou." We, connect me and her tightly."

Qiu Shui's pupils shrank, and the air-conditioning penetrated the pores of his body, "Miss, you mean someone is provoking you? Actually, I always thought it was strange. It was clearly Aunt Rou who held Miss's hand and pushed herself on herself, but she was Lai Cheng. If she didn't intend to, because she was afraid of losing the child and angering the third master, Miss Lai could be justified. But the problem is that she committed suicide that day, and she slandered Miss when she had a miscarriage. Her servants also spoke in unison, as if it had been discussed before."

"That's right, it's because of these that I'm even more skeptical." Rong Zhao said firmly.

Qiu Shui's eyes lit up, "Could it be that she wanted to use a cruel trick to frame Miss, but she didn't expect the child to be lost?"

"Her womb is almost five months old. It's time to be careful. It's not worth taking such a big risk." After kneeling for a long time, her legs were already numb.Rong Zhao supported Qiu Shui's hand to get up, his knees softened, and he staggered.She beat her kneecaps and frowned, "It is said that a mother is more expensive than a child. If Aunt Rou wants to have a foothold in the deep house compound, she must have a child by her side. She has lived in the brothel for a long time, so she should be more thorough than us and know men. They are all people who like the new and dislike the old. Now the third uncle loves her a lot, but there is no guarantee that she will not fall out of favor in the future, so if she wants to settle down, she must have a child to rely on in the future."

The dancing candle flames reflected on her cheeks, which were glowing red, "If you say that my festivities with her are just that cat, she wouldn't be so stupid as to use a child to frame me in order to avenge the cat? The loss outweighs the gain."

Qiu Shui squatted at her feet, picked up her leg and put it on his own, massaging her, "Yes, Aunt Rou is not such a stupid person no matter how you look at it. Even if the lady did this, a child of Aunt Rou How can I compare with you? You can stay in the Buddhist hall for a few days at most, and you won't receive much punishment."

"I'm imprisoned for a child. This deal is not worthwhile." Rong Zhao followed Qiushui's train of thought, but after hearing her last sentence, he felt awkward no matter what he thought.Looking at her sideways, "It's not a big punishment. I've been locked up here for three days. It's no different from being in prison. I don't even see meat when I eat a meal. I don't think it's better to be in prison. Every ten or fifteen years in prison is fine." After a good meal, I will eat vegetables and tofu."

Qiu Shui giggled, and said: "Miss, please bear with me for now. When you go out, the servant will prepare a large table of delicious food for you."

Rong Zhao looked at Qiu Shui helplessly, how could she be in the mood to eat at this time, so she was just complaining.Her thoughts were still entangled with Aunt Rou, and she felt something was wrong no matter what she thought.I always felt that from the very beginning, she was the target of someone else's trap, and she was led by the neck, step by step into the trap.

But even if this is the case, what good is it for the person who set up the situation?

Between the flints, a flash of lightning flashed in his mind. Rong Zhao grabbed Qiu Shui's hand, and the flames of the candle reflected on her eyeballs, "After I come in, who will my father arrange for the management of the shop?"

The wrist hurts, Qiu Shui twisted his face, and said: "Of course I leave it to Madam."

There was sticky cold sweat on her palms, and the touch of her fingertips was icy cold. Rong Zhao slowly let go of Qiu Shui's wrist and leaned back on the chair.

She smiled and uttered cold words, as if going back from the spring to the twelfth lunar month, "I understand, it turns out that everything was done by Mrs. Gao, and she set a trap for me to regain the management right of the shop. Aunt Rou is just a pawn used by her."

"No way, Madam has not been involved in this matter from the beginning to the end." Qiu Shui asked in a daze, a little confused.

"Why not? In the end, both Aunt Rou and I were hurt, but she was able to benefit. And it's because she never participated, that's clever. Don't forget, who provoked the whole thing from the beginning." Rong Zhao's eyes narrowed slightly, with a hint of sharpness in his eyes, "If Rong Xi and Aunt Rou hadn't robbed the fabric, I wouldn't have been wading through the backwater, and what happened one after another wouldn't have happened. Wrong step, just like that, Gao and Rong Xi took him into the trap."
