Chapter 42 Interrogation
  Aunt Zhao had a smile on her face just now, but now she became mean.

"Hey, what's going on with you, girl? Madam has given you a good future, why are you still holding back?"

Qianxue shook her head and said: "I don't dare, slave... I just can't bear to leave my wife. I want to stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion and serve my wife for the rest of my life."

Aunt Zhao pursed her lips, "Madam, you still need to serve me alone? Instead of talking about these useless things, it is better to listen to the eldest lady's words well and help the eldest lady consolidate her position in the Hou Mansion. This is the greatest thing for the madam." loyalty."

Qian Xue's hand slipped down weakly. She stood there and began to cry uncontrollably. The fatigue of the past few days and the grievances of the previous nights were all piled up together. At this moment, they finally broke out completely.

She sobbed softly, tears falling down like rolling beads, and her jade-white face was stained with tears.

It seemed that due to the presence of Aunt Zhao, she did not dare to cry loudly, so she could only bite her lips hard and try her best to stop crying.

The bright red lips were bitten until they turned white. In the sound of a suction, you could even see the blood flowing out from the bitten lip.

Aunt Zhao looked at her several times, and finally couldn't help but sigh. She took a few steps closer to Qianxue, patted Qianxue's back gently, and said: "What the masters have decided, we as servants are It can't be changed. Instead of crying here, it's better to take advantage of this time to visit your parents. I believe Madam will be right."

Aunt Zhao left after saying this. Qianxue's eyes were still filled with moisture, but the tears that were about to surge were stopped by what Aunt Zhao just said.

Since everything is a foregone conclusion, the most important thing is to take care of everything for your parents before leaving the Prime Minister's Mansion. My mother has been ill for a long time and has lost her labor force. She cannot stop taking medicine every month. My father is also old and can do less and less every year. If I don't take care of myself, I don't know what will happen to my parents in the future. So.

Qianxue wiped her tears while thinking about what to leave for her parents and who to ask to take care of her from time to time.

At the same time, I kept cheering myself up from the bottom of my heart. I went to the Marquis Mansion and listened carefully to the eldest lady's words. Maybe I could become an aunt, and then my family's life would be better.

Her heart had already become a sea of ​​sourness, but she still wanted to find some sweetness in this sea of ​​sourness. Otherwise, she would not know how to face a future master who was lecherous, had a bad temper, had countless women, and had internal diseases.

She smiled bitterly and was about to go back to the house to pack her luggage, but she was stopped by Nong Qin on the way back.

"Qianxue, you are here. My wife is calling you to go to the main courtyard."

Qianxue forced a smile and thanked Nongqin, but when she was about to leave, she was stopped by Nongqin.

"Why don't you tidy up a little bit? Madam doesn't look... well."

Qian Xue looked at Nong Qin for a moment, and then quickly thanked her. She understood that the other party meant to remind her, but since they were both servants, there was really nothing he could do to help her.

Qianxue took out her handkerchief and wiped her tears a little, then straightened her hair before walking towards Zhao's courtyard.

Even Qian Xue herself didn't notice that her back looked extremely weak and sad.

With just a casual glance, Jing Yu saw the thin back. In the blink of an eye, the man turned around the verandah and was out of sight.

Seeing that Jing Yu had stopped moving, Jingxuan leaned over and asked, "Brother, is something wrong?"

Jing Yu looked at the cheerfully smiling man in front of him and felt very uncomfortable, but he still pretended to reply: "It's nothing, I just saw a strange bird, and it has already flown away."

Jingxuan nodded and said with some regret, "It's a pity that we didn't get to meet him."

Jing Yu put on a fake smile, stopped talking to Jing Xuan, and walked forward.

The lonely figure just now flashed into Jing Yu's mind again. He wanted to ignore it at first, but he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, is this girl thinner than before? Zhao's yard won't just be about work, but not food for the servants, right? How long has it been since then? Why do I feel like my whole body has become smaller? There were many thoughts in his mind, but Jing Yu's face was calm, thinking that if he punished her for a few more days, she would learn to behave.

However, that thin, trembling figure kept flashing back and forth in his mind, a kind of helplessness that radiated from the inside out.

Jing Yu suddenly stopped and looked at Jing Xuan with a smile.

"Second brother, you've been back for a long time, haven't you gone to pay your respects to your mother?"

Jing Yu felt sick at the thought of calling Zhao's mother, but he still smiled and looked at Jing Xuan.

Jingxuan smiled and replied: "Brother, I think it's better to go and see my mother first."

Jingxuan said this and wanted to leave first, but Jingyu stopped him.

"I haven't gone to pay my respects to my mother for a long time. You happen to be here today. I'll go with you, okay?"

Jingxuan's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "Very good, very good. My mother must also want my brother to come with me to see him, so it would be best for us to go there together now, just in time for dinner."

Jing Yu smiled and nodded, and walked towards Zhao's yard with Jing Xuan, but he scolded Zhao a hundred and eighty times in his heart.

As soon as Qianxue arrived in front of the main room, she heard Zhao's voice coming from inside: "We're here, come in quickly."

Qian Xue glanced at the two broad-shouldered ladies guarding the door, and her bad premonition worsened. They were trying to block the door. I'm afraid she won't be able to do anything good today.

She calmed down, then opened the door and walked in.

The scene inside the door came into view instantly.

Mrs. Zhao was undoubtedly sitting on the main seat with a majestic aura. Aunt Zhao standing next to her also had a stern face, and even the crisscrossing ravines on her face showed an intimidating aura. The surroundings of the room There are still six strong women guarding them. They are tall and have amazing strength. It only takes one or two moves to take care of the servants.

In the middle of the room, a trembling figure was kneeling. She lowered her head and tightened her body, as if she wanted to bury herself in the ground.

Although she tried her best to reduce her presence, Qianxue still recognized the kneeling person - Jingyu.

Qianxue took a few steps inward and bowed politely, "My slave, I pay my respects to you, Madam."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud shout: "Kneel down!"

Without any hesitation, Qianxue landed on her knees with a thump. Although she tried her best to suppress it, she still couldn't stop her body from shaking.

"I didn't know that my courtyard could raise a shameless servant like you."

Qianxue was barely given any time to react before Zhao's angry curses came all over her face.

Qianxue's voice trembled, but she still whispered: "I only serve my wife wholeheartedly and never dare to have other thoughts."
