The First Killer: Concubine Against the Sky Sick Concubine

Chapter 69 One less villain (1)

"Sister, I will do the work for you in the afternoon. You are too weak to bear it." Xia Rou said again with concern.

"Xiaorou, you are tired enough, take a rest in the afternoon." Xia Xiang said.

Xia Rou smiled bitterly and said, "I'm used to it, so it's nothing, let's eat."

After finishing speaking, he picked up the chopsticks, poured half of the rice in her bowl into an empty bowl on the table, and handed it to Xia Xiang respectfully: "Sister, I know you haven't eaten, eat the half now." , or you will be exhausted."

Xia Xiang raised her head in astonishment, and said, "Xiaorou, I've already eaten!"

"Don't lie to me, you haven't eaten." Xia Rou said seriously.

When cooking in the kitchen at noon today, in order to be with her sister, she stood there and waited for a long time, until all the people who received the meal had left, and she didn't see half of her sister, knowing that she must have not finished. Live, dare not come to eat.

Originally, I wanted to get an extra meal to send back to Chunyuan for her, but Mother Gu had ordered the kitchen in advance in the morning, and Xia Rou could only get one meal today.

Thinking that her sister might be starving, Xia Rou returned to Guichun Garden with her own bowl of rice, planning to give half of it to her sister.

Looking at the poor and unpalatable food in the bowl, Xia Xiang really didn't have any appetite. She had a meal with the masked man Hai this morning. Her stomach was not so hungry, so she quickly pushed the bowl back , Said: "Xiaorou, you eat, I'm really not hungry."

In front of her older sister, Xia Rou was also stubborn. Seeing her sister's refusal, she pushed the bowl back, and immediately pushed the bowl back in front of Xia Xiang.

The two pushed and pushed like this, and no one was willing to eat the half bowl of rice.

Pushing and pushing like this can't solve the problem. When the half bowl of rice was pushed in front of Xia Rou again, Xia Rou stopped pushing, picked up her own half bowl, ate it silently, and then stood up , walked to the door, turned back and said to Xia Xiang: "Sister, eat that half bowl quickly, I'll go to work first."

Looking at the background of her sister's departure and the half bowl of rice on the table, Xia Xiang felt very strange. My sister only ate half a bowl of rice, can she last an afternoon?

Clenching his fist in his hand, Xia Xiang slammed his fist on the table fiercely, and shouted: "No matter how hard life is, we must first solve the problem of food and clothing, and we must never go hungry again!"

Since Gu's mother was very likely to be swallowed by a crocodile, no one would come to ask her to work for the time being. This afternoon, Xia Xiang stayed in Guichunyuan and never went out.

Originally, I wanted to go out secretly to inquire about the news, but a mother Gu is not worth her painstaking efforts.

Despite this, she still pays close attention to the movement outside the yard. If Mrs. Xia finds out that Gu's mother is missing, will she be the first to suspect her and bring someone to smash the house?
But one afternoon, there was no movement outside, and Xia Xiang felt a little relieved.

One afternoon passed without realizing it.

When the sky darkened again, and the willow branches were on the moon again, and the moonlight and the earth reflected each other, Xia Rou finally returned to Guichun Garden.

Today, her brows were tightly furrowed, and her expression seemed a little dignified.

Xia Xiang was a little puzzled, Gu's mother was gone, who else would instruct her to work?
"Xiaorou, is mother Gu still persecuting you this afternoon?" Xia Xiang asked in a low voice.
