Chapter 90 Chapter 12 Meeting the old friend again

The heavy rain didn't stop until noon. The big ship had to be repaired for two hours to clean up the accumulated water. Only when the weather was fine did he dare to continue on the road. Chu Qiao returned to the cabin and started to sneeze, Liang Shaoqing started to mutter, but she kept preparing hot towels and ginger soup for her. When Zhan Ziyu heard that she was ill, he sent a doctor to treat her.After drinking several large bowls of black concoction, I still feel weak all over. In the afternoon, the sixth miss of the Zhan family came in person, busy serving Chu Qiao with tea and water.

After Zhan Ziyun left, Liang Shaoqing sighed for a long time. Seeing that Chu Qiao really didn't want to ask him why, she had to come up to him by herself. , Eighty percent of the time, I have secretly agreed to my heart, so what should I do?" Chu Qiao frowned, and said in a hoarse voice: "You think too much." "How could it be?" Liang Shaoqing argued: "Our current identity is just slaves, but she, a lady of the family, came to our room to serve tea and water regardless of her identity. Qian, you are a woman again, so there is only one reason left, that is, she has taken a fancy to me and wants to get close to me secretly."

Chu Qiao looked Liang Shaoqing up and down, and then thought about the lovely sixth lady of the Zhan family, frowned and said, "Her eyesight can't be so bad!" "Hey, what should I do?" Liang Shaoqing didn't pay attention to Chu Qiao's words at all, she was immersed in her own troubles, and wandered all over the floor with a lot of thoughts: "Father will drive me out of the house. You have to discuss it with your father first, and besides, Xiao Qiao should be at the top of the list, hey, I haven’t completed my studies, I haven’t built a career, how can I miss my lifelong official career because of my love for my son and daughter?”

Chu Qiao shook her head, she didn't sleep much last night, so she just took advantage of the medicine to catch up on sleep today. Thinking of this, he slowly fell asleep. When she woke up from this sleep, the sky had already darkened, Chu Qiao was hungry, her chest pressed against her back, but Liang Shaoqing was nowhere to be seen when she woke up. unstable. After finally getting dressed, he leaned on the wall and walked out, only to see that the deck was as clean as new, and there were busy servants everywhere, apparently preparing dinner for the evening. Being blown by the fresh wind, Chu Qiao regained consciousness instead.At this time, there was a sudden noise behind her, Chu Qiao turned around immediately, but saw a broken basket spinning around in place, she hurried over, and saw that there was no one behind the basket, not even a mouse.

Chu Qiao frowned slowly. Before the meal, Liang Shaoqing finally rushed back in time, and the two of them finished their dinner. Liang Shaoqing continued to think about how to go home and report the important events of his life to his father in the room.Chu Qiao went out alone and strolled on the deck. Not long after walking, there was another rustling sound behind her. Chu Qiao continued to walk as if she hadn't heard it. At this moment, after passing a corner, she stomped her feet away on purpose, and then ran back quietly. On the wall, waiting silently. After a while, a small voice approached slowly, a pale hand approached the corner, and then, a pair of pitch-black eyes approached gently.

It was too late and then quickly, Chu Qiao stretched out her hand. Although she was sick, how could Chu Qiao's strength be comparable to that of ordinary people, she saw her small grabbing hand, and her body suddenly jumped up like a leopard, Press the man firmly to the ground.The girl's face was gloomy, her eyes were sharp, and she shouted in a cold voice, "Who is it? Why are you following me? What are your plans?" "I didn't, I didn't!" A panicked voice suddenly sounded, Chu Qiao was stunned, and looked down, only to see a young woman in her twenties under her body, dressed in coarse linen clothes, obviously worn out, with her arms and neck exposed. , full of whips and bloodstains, her face was pale and bloodless, her eyes were round and big, but she was very thin, and her eye sockets were deeply sunken, her appearance was extremely beautiful, but she was emaciated, she looked like It was like having a serious illness.

Chu Qiao frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Who are you? Why are you following me? Tell me quickly! Otherwise, I will send you to see the young master!" "I don't, I don't," the woman trembled in fear, she quickly waved her hands and shouted, "I'm not a bad person, I'm not a bad person." "Not a bad guy? Then why follow me?" The woman was stunned for a moment, a tear suddenly fell, she looked at Chu Qiao, her eyes were clouded with tears, and without saying anything, she started to cry sadly. Chu Qiao was dumbfounded for a moment, thinking that she had hurt her, she frowned and let go of her hand, and said, "Why are you crying? It was you who sneaked after me first and refused to explain the reason. Crying here, it seems that I am bullying you."

"I'm not," the woman cried, shaking her head, "I'm not..." "Okay, okay," Chu Qiao stood up and said, "Don't cry, I don't want to pursue it, but I warn you, don't follow me anymore, I won't be so lucky next time, I will leave tomorrow Here it is, no matter who you are, there is no need to chase after me fiercely." After all, he turned around and left. At this moment, a trembling, weeping voice full of suspicion suddenly sounded, and it was like a thunderbolt, nailing Chu Qiao in place. "Yue'er?" The woman raised her head, wiped away her tears, and cried out uncertainly.

Chu Qiao was stunned for a moment, as if a cavity of hot blood rushed to her head, her whole body was like a rotten tree, and she froze in place. Seeing that she was not moving, the woman became bolder and called out a little louder: "Are you really Yue'er?" Chu Qiao turned around slowly, her brows were furrowed, she looked at the woman in disbelief, and said in a low voice, "Who are you?" The woman's tears rolled down suddenly, and she covered her mouth, for fear that she would scream out loud. She looked at Chu Qiao, and whispered like a nightmare: "Are you really Yue'er? Really? Is it Yue'er?"

"Who are you?" "I am your second sister!" The woman suddenly staggered forward, hugged Chu Qiao tightly in her arms, and cried loudly: "I finally found you, I finally found you!" Chu Qiao covered the woman's mouth and said hastily: "Keep your voice down, don't let others hear you." The woman nodded hastily, with tears falling down her cheeks, while smiling, she held Chu Qiao's hand tightly, with such force. "Yue'er, I knew I wouldn't admit my mistake. You have a red mole on the back of your neck. I always remember it. They all said you were a man, and only I could tell it at a glance."

Chu Qiao seemed to be dreaming, why would a sister suddenly appear, she frowned and asked, "What you said is true?" "You don't remember?" The woman's face suddenly became sad, and she was about to drop, but she held back immediately and said slowly: "Yue'er, how is Linxi? What about them? Are you still together?" Chu Qiao turned pale when she heard the words, she was silent for a while, and said in a low voice: "They are all dead, and I am the only one left." The woman was stunned for a moment, and after a long time, she smiled miserably, and said in a sad tone: "Yes, the life of a slave is as cheap as a dog. They are so young, how can they survive?" As she spoke, tears rolled down slowly. She held Chu Qiao's hand, which was bony and as cold as snow: "Yue'er, I am your sister Zisu, don't you remember me? No wonder, when our house was ransacked, you were only six years old. My eldest sister, my sister, and a few sisters from my uncle’s family were sold to the Flower Picking House, and later they were bought and sold. Liuxiu, Caizhen, Jinlian from the fourth uncle's family, and Mansheng from the aunt's family were sold to Zhan's house. Later, the eldest sister fell ill and died. Liuxiu and Mansheng made mistakes and were beaten to death by the eldest lady. There are three of us left. Unexpectedly, there will be a chance to meet you again in this life." Chu Qiao's heart was sore, she didn't know what to say for a while, she didn't have any feelings for these relatives of the Jing family.Lin Xi is dead, and Zhi Xiang and Xiao Ba are no longer alive, but these people are relatives of this body after all, and how can she feel at ease in their current situation? "Sister Zisu, don't cry, it's a good thing we can meet again, don't be sad." Jing Zisu reached out to touch Chu Qiao's small face, and pursed her lips tightly, fearing that she would cry, she said tremblingly, "Yue'er, you have suffered a lot these years, it's because my sister failed to take good care of you. " "I'm fine, you're the one who suffered a lot." Jing Zisu shook her head, put her arms around Chu Qiao's shoulders, sobbed softly, and said, "My good sister, it's too late today, if you are found out, you will be punished, you go back first, tomorrow morning, I will bring you and Jin Lian to see you, I know where you live." Chu Qiao nodded: "Then be careful." "En," Jing Zisu nodded and said, "You go first." Chu Qiao said: "I'll take you back." "No, no," Jing Zisu quickly refused: "I watched you go back, so I can feel at ease. Back then, Man Sheng was beaten to death because she was wandering around at night and was mistaken for running away. You don't go back , how can I rest assured." Chu Qiao frowned: "Isn't Bian Tang not allowed to kill slaves at will?" "Silly boy, a servant is a servant, and his life is not his own, so why are you so particular about it?" Jing Zisu smiled bitterly: "Go back quickly, see you tomorrow." Chu Qiao nodded and said, "Then I'll go first, be careful." After walking for a long way, looking back, I can still see the thin figure of Jing Zisu standing in the night, so young, but already half bent, bent carefully, when she saw her looking over, he smiled and waved. Back in the room, Chu Qiao was in a bad mood. She ignored Liang Shaoqing and lay on the bed, her thoughts were like a rainstorm in July, torrentially pouring down, causing chaos. Under such circumstances, would she be able to leave tomorrow?Can she let go of the poor sister she just found and leave alone?But she is too busy to take care of herself now, is she capable of taking care of them? However, in the early morning of the next day, when the boat arrived at the ferry in Wu Pengcheng, a sudden visit by a person immediately disrupted all her plans.Looking at this person, Chu Qiao knew that fate had involved her in Tang Jing's political turmoil in a bizarre way, and Tang Jing's good show had officially begun.
