Daughter's Space: Yipin Pastoral Concubine

Chapter 4 004: The Rainy Night
Time flies by like running water, and in the blink of an eye, 18 years have passed.

The weather in early spring is warm and cold at the same time. One moment it was still sunny, but the next moment it changed its face.

In fact, there was an omen in the morning, and the cold air came rushing in when the window was opened, which made people tremble.

In the afternoon, the sky was covered with overcast clouds. Seeing that the sky was getting dark gradually, the raindrops fell in small bits and pieces at first, and then it turned into continuous drizzle like silk.

There are few people in the Qiuzhu courtyard, even the master and servants are no more than three or two.

It was raining and it was getting dark early. The little girl, Abi, lit the candles early. Su Xi, who was half lying on the bed, saw her and waved her hands: "Mother Lu, Abi, you have been busy all day, go down and rest." .”

Abi put down the lamp in her hand, and Lu's mother added another quilt for her, and said to be careful of catching a cold, and then retreated.

Turning over, Su Xi lay down on the bed.Her clear and bright phoenix eyes looked at the distant sky through the closed glass window.

The fine raindrops crackling on the glass windows, together with the sound of rain hitting plantains, is extremely bleak in the dark night.

It's been 18 years, it's been 18 years since she traveled here.How time flies, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

Her biological mother saved her with her remaining property and life. Since that day, their master and servant were driven to the remote autumn bamboo courtyard.

Those servants who followed the Su Lin family in the past scattered, and those who joined the Su Lu family took refuge in the Su Lu family.Up to now, only Mother Lu's family is left by her side.

For 18 years, it can be said that she has been locked up in the Qiuzhuyuan, and she has not had a single monthly payment.If she wants to survive, she has to rely on herself for everything.

Abi and Lu's mother embroidered handkerchiefs, and the purses were sold on behalf of others. Fortunately, she had the embroidery samples drawn by herself, so that they could maintain their lives.

In fact, from the bottom of her heart, she didn't want money from the Su family at all, she didn't even want this surname.

Her mother, Su Linshi, was innocent and she did not have to be tarnished by the filth of the Su family.

Su Xie and Su Lu thought she was still in the remote autumn bamboo courtyard.No matter what, let her fend for herself, she will not be able to survive.

For her to live well, it was tantamount to slapping the couple hard.

Angry about this, the pair of dogs and men became more and more shameless and shameless, calling people to run on them and bullying their master and servant.

Su Xie and Su Lu were afraid that she would avenge Su Lin and the Lin family, so they never asked her to appear in front of others.In the eyes of outsiders, the Su family has only one daughter, but they don't know that there is another Su Xi.

This pair of dogs and men planned to lock her up for the rest of their lives, and after seeing through their calculations, Su Xi did not reveal any intention of revenge.

She lacks the most important freedom, and the deed of sale of Lu's mother's family is not in her hands, but in the hands of Su Lu's.

How to escape from Su's house is what worries her the most.

Lying on the bed tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, she had no choice but to keep her eyes open and wait for the dawn.

After midnight, it rained harder.Su Xi simply got up from the bed, put on a padded jacket, leaned halfway on the bed and read a book of travel notes under the pillow.

Just after reading only three or two pages, the book in his hand was startled by the knock on the door.

"Mother Lu, Abi, hurry up and see, who is knocking on the door?" Walking out from the inside, she saw Mother Lu and Abi who were also alarmed.

Su Xi's face was strangely pale in the candlelight.When Lu's mother and Abi saw each other, they also became uneasy, and rushed out without delay.

It took a while before the sudden palpitations subsided.However, Su Xi's premonition of uneasiness became stronger and stronger.

Could it be that couple of dogs and men making trouble again? !

"Brother Liu, is that you?" Mother Lu and Abi supported each other, and stumbled to the corner gate.It was rainy and slippery at night, and I almost dropped the wind lantern in my hand.

"Mom, it's me." An anxious male voice came from outside the door: "Open the door!"

As soon as the corner door was opened, the tall Liu brother rushed in: "Mother, is the girl awake? Something happened, something happened!"

His whole body was drenched by the rain, and the rain kept dripping down his forehead and down his neck.

"What happened?!" Looking at Brother Liu who was like a soaked chicken, Mother Lu's heart trembled suddenly, and her legs went limp.

"Mother, I want to see the girl, wait until I see the girl." Brother Liu asked, and the flustered mother Lu and Abi hurriedly took him to the autumn bamboo courtyard.

"Girl, it's Brother Liu. He said something happened and he wanted to see the girl." Mother Lu opened the curtain and went in first.

Abi brought a clean cotton towel and asked Brother Liu to wipe it off anyway: "Second brother, could it be him?!"

"Brother Liu, come in." It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided.Su Xi didn't intend to be an ostrich, she also wanted to find out as soon as possible, what happened?

Brother Liu tidied up a bit, and he didn't look so embarrassed.After entering the outer room, he lowered his head and stood at the farthest place from Su Xi.

"Girl, my elder brother has been detained."

As soon as these words came out, Lu's mother shook, and the blood on her face faded away.

"Who held Brother Qiang?" Su Xi asked Abi to help Mother Lu sit down, she had completely calmed down.It doesn't matter if something goes wrong, the important thing is to solve it quickly.

"The shopkeeper asked Xiao and Brother Qiang to deliver the goods. We sent them there, only to find that we were led to the Lixiang Building and surrounded by people. Brother Qiang said that it was hard to get caught, and we desperately The little one was pushed out, but he was detained in the Lixiang Building. Talk about him, talk about him..."

Brother Liu was extremely angry when he said that, his fists were tightly clenched, and the rainwater flowed down from his trousers, forming a puddle after a while.

And there are some things he can't say, and he doesn't dare to dirty Su Xi's ears.

"Lixiang Building? What's that place? Why did you hold Brother Qiang?" Su Xi saw that Lu's mother's body was trembling violently, she was afraid and ashamed.

"Don't say it, Brother Liu, don't say anything." Mother Lu suddenly stood up straight with a burst of strength from nowhere, and ordered Lu Liu not to say anything.

"Brother Liu, tell me." Su Xi held Mama Lu's trembling hand and looked directly into her terrified and helpless eyes: "Mama Lu, it's useless to run away. There was an accident in Qiuzhuyuan, so it was convenient to deal with me!"

"Girl, that's..." Seeing Su Xi's insistence, Lu's mother had no choice but to lean into her ear and whispered a few words.Before she finished speaking, Mother Lu's face was already flushed, and she didn't dare to look directly at Su Xi.

"Brother Liu, tell me. How can I get Brother Qiang back?" Su Xi never thought that the first time he heard about the ancient brothel was on such an uneasy rainy night.

There was no surprise in the slightest, all she had in her heart was calculated anger and a hint of uneasiness.
