Chapter 5
Look at the time has come to Youzheng time, which is around 6 o'clock in the afternoon.If Shuanghan doesn't go home again, the gate of Chengtian Gate will be closed as soon as the street drum beats six hundred times.Not to mention where she will spend the night in exile, when she comes back the next day, she will definitely be indispensable to the Qiu family's family law, and she may even be sold out.

Qiu Mo was so anxious that she didn't even think about it, she stood up, grabbed a sash, put it on, and rushed out to find someone.Just when she was about to rush to the side door of Qiu's house, suddenly, she saw a piece of colorful skirt flashing across the shade of a tree not far away, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Qiu Mo was stunned for a moment, but then she came back to her senses and continued to run towards the side door.As the distance got closer, the sound of desperately knocking on the door became more and more clear!
When Qiu Mo rushed to the side door, the latch on the door had been lowered, and the door panel was firmly stuck.The two door panels were creaked by the outside slapping force, and at the same time, Shuanghan cried hoarsely: "Come here!! Woooooo... Open the door quickly!!! Open the door!!!"

Qiu Mo rushed up in twos, and threw the latch open.Shuanghan didn't stop, and fell to her knees in front of Qiu Mo with a plop. Her whole body was exhausted, her face was full of frightened tears and endless grievances.

"My lady...fortunately...you are here."

Shuang Han tried her best to kneel just now, but now her knees are so painful that she can hardly even straighten them.Qiu Mo had no choice but to support Shuanghan with her right hand, and her left hand to carry the big and small bags she bought from Xishi, and slowly moved back to the second room's yard step by step.

When they walked to the yard, the two of them were really exhausted.Qiu Mo helped Shuanghan to sit on the stone bench in the yard first, then poured a bucket of cold well water, wet the cloth towel, lifted up Shuanghan's skirt, frowned and helped Shuanghan carefully. Cleanse and cool.

"What's going on here?" Qiu Mo kept moving her hands and asked, "Why did you come back so late?"

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo".

After careful observation, Shuanghan's knee didn't hurt any bones. As long as twelve hours later, he would be cured soon after applying bruises and hot compresses.Qiu Mo is now relaxed.It's good that the person is back. When Shuanghan finishes crying and has the strength to speak, she will naturally know what happened just now.

Finally, when Shuanghan was free from crying, Qiu Mo sat on the stone stool next to her: "Tell me, what's going on?"

"It's the maidservant's fault. The maidservant is playful. It's indeed a bit late, but she must have been right!..." Shuanghan sniffled and said with a sob; "The maidservant knocked on the door full It's time for tea, but no one opens the door..."

While talking, Shuanghan seemed to think of something again, and couldn't help but burst into tears again.

"The servant girl clearly saw that there was a maidservant from the Qiu family, who was walking in front of the maidservant, only twenty or thirty paces away. The maidservant wanted to catch up with her and enter the door with her, who knew that she would make a whoosh." He turned into the courtyard, and when the servant girl walked to the side door, the door was tightly bolted."

Qiu Mo remembered the figure she saw at that time: "Have you seen who it is?"

Shuanghan sniffled and said, "No, the clothes of the maidservants in the Qiu Mansion are similar. The maidservants didn't expect to encounter such a thing, so they didn't look carefully at first."

Qiu Mo understood that Shuanghan felt wronged.She sighed and took Shuanghan into her arms, gently stroking her back.

No way, this is the situation.Unless she, Qiu Sanniang, has her own ability to give everyone around her a space and protect them from being bullied by villains, otherwise such things will happen again and again before her eyes.

She really has had enough.

After persuading for a long time, Shuanghan wiped away the tears on her cheeks until the stomachs of the two little girls started to growl simultaneously.

"The maidservant will go to the kitchen to bring food."

"Don't worry." Qiu Mo waved her hand, "What are you going to do with your legs now? Besides, the fire in the kitchen has long been shut down, so you want to be read by Aunt Sun again?"

"Then what should we do! Master Zhan and the servant have gone to Qian Juzi's house for a drink, and if they don't come back at this time, they must stay overnight at Qian Juzi's house." Shuanghan touched her stomach, she It’s not long since I ate cherry porridge, and I feel a little hungry now.Not to mention the three little ladies.

"Isn't there still the big and small bags you brought back? Show me what delicious food you brought back." Qiu Mo said to Shuanghan pretending to be expecting, her pair of bright eyes were shining, like a cat. Adorable little cat.

Qiu Mo hoped to distract Shuanghan's attention and make her forget the sad emotions just now.Moreover, she was not a delicate young lady. In the modern age, she often worked overtime and stayed up late and forgot to eat dinner. Now there are ready-made imported foods that can be eaten, which is very good.

Shuang Han wiped her face with her hands, and then put all the big and small bags that Qiu Mo brought in together on the stone table, and lifted the cloth towels that wrapped things layer by layer.

Qiu Mo just watched Shuanghan put them on the stone table one by one, including apricots, twisted seeds, peach cakes, glutinous rice cakes... When she had nothing to do, she picked up a piece of glutinous rice cakes and opened the package of oil paper , I picked up a small piece of cake with my fingers, put it in my mouth and squeezed it carefully...

"Ha! I thought of it!!"

Shuang Han was so shocked that her hands trembled, and she almost threw the whole box of candied fruit away...

"Shuanghan! I finally figured out a solution!" Qiu Mo hurriedly took the candied fruit from Shuanghan's hand and put it on the stone table, then grabbed her hands, shaking up and down excitedly.

Shuanghan was completely stunned, and she held both hands like this, up and down, until she accidentally pulled the injured knee, and couldn't help but let out a "squeak...!".

Qiu Mo also realized that she was too excited, so she quickly let go of Shuanghan's hand, apologized repeatedly and sat back at the table, happily picked up a piece of glutinous rice cake and chewed it with relish.Shuanghan didn't feel so hurt anymore, so she hurried over and asked curiously:
"Third little lady, you... what are you thinking of?"

Qiu Mo still had a mouthful of glutinous rice cakes in her mouth, with a smile on her face.After she completely swallowed this mouthful, she raised her face and said to Shuanghan, "Shuanghan, you have done a great job!"

Shuanghan fell into confusion in an instant, did the third lady lose her mind from starvation?

Seeing Shuanghan's blank look, Qiu Mo burst out laughing.Backhand stuffed a glutinous rice cake into her mouth, and continued to eat happily.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

After a few days, Shuanghan's knee improved a lot.In the early morning of one day, after the morning and evening meditation with Amu Aye, Qiu Mo took Shuang Han and ran towards the bubble house quickly.

Shuang Han asked Qiu Mo to wait outside the house, and walked into the bubble house by herself.After a while, he came out of the bubble house with a bulging cloth bag.She happily walked in front of Qiu Mo, shaking in front of her as if asking for credit.

Originally, everything was ready, only the east wind was owed!Now, the east wind is coming.

Qiu Mo went back to the inner room, opened the cloth bag, and dug out the contents with a ladle.A scoop of white, tender, round glutinous rice appeared in front of her eyes.

That's right, the idea she thought of was glutinous rice.
