Don't panic, my mother and I are dressed as Houfu mother-in-law and daughter-in-law!

Chapter 170 Lock

Wiping the sweat on her palms, Cui Tao walked to the door, and looked back at her master whom she had served for several years for the last time, a trace of sadness flashed in her heart.

But soon, those erratic emotions were replaced by expectations for the future, rubbing the corners of her eyes red with a handkerchief, she ran out of the courtyard in a panic, and shouted: "Auntie is not well, go and ask for help!" doctor!"

Song Chengye was halfway through his meal when he heard the noise outside, and when he arrived at Ting Yuxuan, Xue Liner was already out of breath.

His whole body seemed to have fallen into an icehouse, and the distance from the door to the bed was only a dozen steps, and he was forced to go by his servants.

"How did this happen~ why did this happen?!"

He fell down on the edge of the bed, held Xue Liner's hand tightly, and called Xue Liner's name over and over again, but unfortunately, the person on the bed could no longer respond.

Cuitao cried bitterly, and lay on Xue Liner's body crying until she fainted, as if she couldn't accept the fact at all, she cried: "Auntie, why are you so stupid, even if you make a big mistake, the prince will forgive you, Why can't you think about it!"

"Your Madam and Mrs. Gu are living a good life, but you are obsessed with the past, and you can't let yourself go. You are so stupid~~"

Song Chengye was immersed in grief. He didn't hear these two words, but when he heard the sound, Xue Lan's heart moved. He stopped her crying and asked, "What do you mean by what you just said? What mistake did Aunt Lin make?" ?”

Cui Tao realized that she had said the wrong thing, her crying stopped abruptly, she hurriedly waved her hands and said: "No, this servant is just too sad and said the wrong thing, madam, don't take it seriously!"

Song Chengye said bitterly: "It's not about the pair of old dogs from the Xue family who betrayed the Duke's government in the first place. Now that they have left, Liner must feel guilty for what they did, so she can't think about it!"

Cui Tao hurriedly followed his words and said, "This is what I mean, my servant. These days, my aunt has been talking about atonement for her parents, but this servant never expected that she would choose such an extreme method~"

Now Song Chengye hated Xue Aokun and his wife even more, rushed to the study regardless, and wanted to hack them to death with a sword.

Xue Lan stood there, not looking at the person who died on the bed, but coldly looked at Cui Tao who was weeping beside the bed: "What do you mean by what you just said?"

A panic flashed across Cui Tao's face, and she hurriedly lowered her eyes and said, "Your servant~ I have just said that my aunt is because her parents betrayed the Duke's mansion..."

She kept her mouth covered, but in her heart she wanted Xue Lan to ask the truth, but after waiting for a long time, Xue Lan just hummed, told her to take care of Xue Lin'er's body, and left Tingyuxuan with others.

Suddenly there was only Cui Tao left in the room, the sky was getting dark, and next to him was a cold corpse, You Qi still died in his own hands, Cui Tao's tongue tensed up, and she slowly moved outside.

He was about to go out, but was stopped by the guard at the door: "Madam said, Miss Cui Tao has been with my aunt for many years, and before leaving, she must want to accompany her well, Miss Cui Tao, please come back."

"I, I remembered that some of my aunt's favorite clothes were confiscated. It's going to rain..."

The servant interrupted her directly, still speaking politely: "Miss Cui Tao doesn't need to bother with these, Madam has already arranged for other girls to go, you can talk to Auntie at ease, someone will deliver the dinner."

Cui Tao panicked immediately, but she didn't dare to go out by force, so she had to force a smile: "If that's the case, then I'll be in trouble."

As she spoke, she walked slowly inside, not daring to approach the inner room, so she sat lightly on the arhat bed in the outer room, thinking about how to find a way to get out.

The light in the room gradually dimmed, and the duck-egg blue curtains turned pale in the dimness, so dense that Cui Tao couldn't breathe.

Just as he was about to fumble to light a candle, the door behind him slammed shut, and then there was a click, and it was actually locked? !

"Open the door! What are you going to do? Why are you locking me up?!"

A servant's voice came from outside the door, but it was not the servant just now.

"Ah, the little one just came over from a shift change. I didn't know that Miss Cui Tao was still in the house, but she accidentally locked it. Miss, wait a moment, the little one is going to get the key right now!"

"You idiot! Even if there is no one else, the prince may come over at any time, so do you need to lock the door with all your hands and feet?"

Cui Tao cursed angrily, the footsteps outside the door faded away, and she didn't know where the servant had gone.

The familiar room in the past became unfamiliar in the great fear. After groping for a long time, Cui Tao finally lit a candle, her jacket was already wet, and it was icy cold against her back, stirring up rice millet all over her body.

"Auntie, don't hate me, I blame you for being too narrow-minded, and you can't tolerate sand in your eyes."

With the candlelight, Cui Tao gradually became more courageous, leaned on the Arhat bed, and talked to herself while looking in the direction of the inner room.

"Being a human being all my life, why do you have to be high above me and shout at me? If you are happy, you will reward me with a bone, and if you are unhappy, you will take it out on me. Look at my arm~"

As Cui Tao said, she gently rolled up her sleeves. Under the dim candlelight, the dense bruises on her face filled her with endless hatred, and she even forgot the last trace of fear.

"I'm only in my cardamom age, but you beat and scold at every turn. I can only wag my tail and beg for mercy at you like a dog. Why?!"

"Both were born by my parents. I've had enough of your domineering, but fortunately, God gave you a beautiful appearance, but didn't give you a brain. I let you plan to push your wife, and you are really stupid." I went~~=”

She put down her sleeves, with a look of pride in the corner of her eyes, she said regretfully: "It's a pity, after all, I just made a wedding dress for me. After just a few words, Madam has obviously become suspicious. I believe I will come to ask the truth soon. I will definitely Let me tell you the truth, and then I will repent for you, heh! Hehehe~~~"

The candlelight flickered for a moment, and Cui Tao shut up in fright. After all, she felt guilty and dared not continue to act presumptuously.

Waiting until the lights in the yard were turned on, the door finally heard the sound of unlocking the door. Cui Tao was about to yell at her, but she heard Song Chengye's angry voice: "Slave, who told you to lock Auntie herself inside?!"

"Returning to my son, a wild cat passed by in the yard just now, I was afraid of disturbing my aunt, so I locked the door."

The door was kicked open from the outside, and Song Chengye was obviously taken aback when he saw Cuitao. Before he could ask, Cuitao had already rushed forward: "My lord, you are finally here!"

Wen Xiangruanyu flung herself into her arms, but Song Chengye didn't want to feel it, and pushed her away from his side, asking, "Why are you in there?"

Cui Tao burst into tears, but she seemed petty in suing now, she just said: "Don't blame them, just now the servant was too sad and passed out in the room, and the outsiders locked the servant together in the room without notice .”
