Chapter 2: Confiscation of the house and exile?

Jiang Zhimiao said a few words casually, but it was unclear whether he heard the words.

"Mom, isn't there no one here? I just woke up from a serious illness, so don't worry so much." Jiang Zhimiao hugged Xu Yourong's thin shoulders and smiled.

Seeing the girl's playful smile, Xu Yourong had no choice but to let her go. She sighed: "It's up to you this time. Be more careful next time and don't overstep the rules."

With a pair of clear watery eyes open, Jiang Zhimiao laughed a few times, and then started to sway with his arms around her shoulders.

We haven't seen each other for many years, and we miss each other so much. Now that we are back, we can't wait for a while. The two of them smiled at each other, their crescent-shaped eyes narrowed into thin slits.

The long corridor is silent, the bamboos are swaying green, and under the eaves of the corridor outside, a little person wearing a lotus-colored skirt is running under the eaves with a messy bun.

Behind the little man, a boy wearing bright blue floor-length deep clothes followed closely. He could see the heat rising up, his breathing was scorching, and his fair little face was flushed red by the heat and he didn't stop.

"Miss, Master, run slower, don't fall." Looking at the backs of the little people gradually disappearing from sight, Bai Lu, who was following behind, stopped breathing tiredly. She leaned on the pillar and panted.

The little lady and the others had been running around in the yard all morning, and now they were running with so much energy that she couldn't stand it anymore.

Cuteness is cute, and when it hurts, it also hurts. With a deep sigh, Bai Lu followed her resignedly.

A soft voice came from outside the house. Jiang Zhimiao heard the sound and turned his head.

"Sister! You're finally awake. Mingzhu misses you so much." Looking up, she saw a small figure carved in pink and jade rushing towards her like a firecracker and wrapping her left hand around her. leg.

The soft touch brought Jiang Zhimiao back to her senses. He suddenly looked down at her and smiled slowly, with ripples in his eyes: "Mingzhu, where did you go to play? Why are you back now?"

Mingzhu tilted her head and replied with a sweet voice: "I went next door to play with brother Jingming and the others. My brother and I ran back as soon as we heard that sister woke up."

"Sister, are you okay now? Will you fall asleep again?" Minghuai said uneasily, wrapping his arms around the girl's other leg.

He didn't know what kind of disease she had, but he only knew that when he woke up, his sister couldn't wake up from a long sleep. Even though many doctors came to see her, it was all to no avail. His mother's face was filled with sadness, and her sister couldn't wake up from her sleep. Unconsciously, her heart was rising. Get worried.

Unfortunately, he was still young and couldn't do anything. He could only stay with his mother to comfort her every day. Now that my sister finally woke up, he was really happy, especially happy.

"Of course, sister is completely healed and will never fall asleep again, so don't worry." Jiang Zhimiao smiled, her eyes curved into arcs: "Just stop frowning, I'm almost a little girl." Even though he is an old man, he still has a good-looking smile."

After listening to these words, Minghuai slowly raised his head, curved his lips and smiled, just like a boy descending from the Guanyin Seat, with red lips and white teeth, cute and tight.

"That's great. Sister is well now and can play with us. Sister has finally gotten up after sleeping for so long. Mingzhu is happy." The little man raised his head, hugged Jiang Zhimiao's leg and rubbed it hard Rubbing, his eyes were filled with light.

"Huhu~ We have caught up. The young lady and the young master are running so fast. I can't catch up." Bai Lu gasped while holding two nine-ring rings.

Jiang Zhimiao raised his eyes and took a look at Bai Lu's childish face, and said with a gentle smile: "Dolls are very energetic. Of course you are not as good as them with your small arms and legs."

Bai Lu was a maid Xu Yourong bought ten years ago. She was sold by her family when she was three years old. Xu Yourong saw how pitiful she was, so he bought her back. After getting along with each other for these years, although they were not sisters, they were better than sisters.

"Miss, you finally woke up, Bai Lu, Bai Lu has been worried about you to death. My aunt has been to many doctors these days but she can't cure me. I, I thought you would never wake up again." Bai Lu opened her mouth and was stunned. Looking at her with tears in his eyes.

It's one thing to know, and it's another to see her. Now she is so happy to see the young lady standing well in front of her.

Seeing her eyes filled with tears, Jiang Zhimiao comforted her with a mixture of laughter and tears: "Am I not standing in front of you alive? Just stop crying, it won't look good if your eyes are swollen from crying."

When the two little ones saw this, they comforted each other with words. Bai Lu's crying decreased and she slowly put away her tears, but her eyelids were red. When they saw this, they covered each other's mouths and laughed.

Bai Lu stomped her foot on the ground shamefully, her ears turning red. After laughing a few words, Xu Yourong pulled Mingzhu Minghuai to sit down: "You must be hungry after playing for so long. Eat quickly. Today, my aunt will let you The kitchen has prepared a lot of food, but we need to eat more."

Xu Yourong put a piece of white sugar oil cake into their bowls and said warmly: "Your sister has just woken up and needs to recuperate for a while. You can't mess around during this period. If you make trouble for your sister to recuperate, my aunt But it’s time to slap the hand." When Mingzhu Minghuai heard the handcuff, she couldn't help but tremble and nodded hurriedly.

Jiang Zhimiao acted coquettishly and changed the subject: "Mom, my body is fine. Didn't the doctor just say that? Don't worry."

"That's right, but, but, doesn't mother want you to raise her for a while longer?" Xu Yourong stopped what he was doing and looked at her with concern.

Strange to say, Miaomiao's illness only made people sleepy and had no other symptoms. Even the highly respected old doctor in the city didn't know why. Fortunately, she finally woke up and her body was fine. She was so worried that she finally woke up. You can let it go.

Xu Yourong felt happy in his heart and took a deep breath of relief: "Just wake up, just wake up, I can finally let go." The woman said with a smile.

After having enough water and food, Xu Yourong took out a dressing box beside Babu's bed in front of everyone. She put the box on the bed and waved her hand to signal a few people to come over.

Opening the lock, she raised her hand and took out a body deed, waved her hand to Bai Lu and said, "Bai Lu, I bought you when you were three years old. It has been more than ten years now. Today is your birthday. This body Consider this deed a birthday gift from your aunt."

Bai Lu took a deep breath, took the body deed, lowered her head and sobbed: "Auntie, I, I, thank you so much, auntie." After saying this, the girl knelt on the ground and kowtowed several times.

She knew that her aunt was good to her. Who among the servants who were sold to the house and signed a deed of sale did not want to redeem themselves. This gift from her aunt was really too great.

She knelt on the ground, her body trembling slightly and kowtowed a few more times, feeling very excited.

"Okay, stop kneeling, get up. You have been by my side since you were a child. I treat you as my child. Just keep this bond. Miaomiao woke up today, and it's... It's your birthday, so we have to celebrate it properly later." Xu Yourong coaxed warmly.

As soon as the words fell, everyone heard a burst of noise outside. In confusion, Jiang Zhimiao opened the door.

As far as the eye could see, there was chaos all around. Just when he was about to ask someone to ask, he heard a young man shouting at the top of his voice in the courtyard.

"It's not good, it's not good, the officials have surrounded the Jiang family and want to ransack the house. I heard that the old Marquis made a mistake. His Majesty Long Yan was furious and has issued an order to be exiled to the far north. Let's run away! "

"What? Conquer the house and exile them? Then, let's pack up quickly and leave through the back door. Let's escape quickly before they can react."

Jiang Zhimiao looked at the scene in front of him dumbfounded, and his heart was filled with turmoil. What?Confiscated and exiled?Is it a mistake? I ransacked my house as soon as I came back. Is there any humanity at all?

Cursing in her heart, she glared at God fiercely, and then quickly closed the door.

She turned around and saw several people with tears in their eyes, looking as if they had been struck by lightning.

Xu Yourong was unsteady and spoke with a choked voice: "Miaomiao, what should we do? Officers and soldiers have surrounded the Jiang family. I, what should we do now?"

As she finished speaking, she suddenly thought of something. She quickly ran to the box containing the money and took out all the money. She said in a panic: "Money, money, we have to take this money away. Since the officers and soldiers are already here, let's explain the matter." There is no room for change, the Far North is far away, and this money must be taken away."

The woman pretended to be calm and looked at the money in her hand, her voice trembling slightly.

Jiang Zhimiao was also panicked, but after all, she was a person who had experienced another world. She came back to her senses in an instant. She turned her gaze to the frightened Bai Lu: "Bai Lu, if you get rid of your lowly status, you will be a good citizen. You are not here." It's on the official slave register, so I guess the officials won't search you strictly. You can take the money away first, and then hand it over to us at the city gate on the day of your exile."

"Okay, I'll leave now. There are a lot of people enjoying the flowers at a banquet in the house today. I'll leave now. People are panicking now, so you can take advantage of the chaos to get out of the house." Bai Lu took the makeup box with trembling hands and hurriedly ran out of the house.

Jiang Zhimiao saw her looking back three times with tears in her eyes, and immediately waved her hand to signal her not to stop.

Xu Yourong stared blankly at Bai Lu leaving. It was at this moment that she suddenly realized that Bai Lu was a good citizen, not a registered pariah, and it was indeed the best choice to ask her to take him away.

Looking at Bai Lu's retreating back, she was extremely happy. She was glad that she had gotten rid of her low status early, which was really a good reward.
