Half way out of the courtyard door, he reacted like a blow to the head. He gripped the sides of the tray tightly with both hands and gritted his teeth angrily.
When he said get out, did she really get out?
Is this too cowardly?
Why didn't she be tougher just now? Didn't this make him look down on her even more?
Si Nannan stood still, hesitating whether to turn back or not. Over there, Ergou came over quickly: "Miss, the result is here..."
A few whispers.
Si Nannan narrowed his eyes slightly and put the tray into Ergou's hands, "I'm going out, you don't have to follow me, you will be conspicuous by the crowd."
Since he got the government seal, Si Nannan can enter and leave the palace of Zhan Wang freely. Although he is only allowed one hour a day, it is better than being detained in the palace every day.
The road after leaving the mansion became more and more eccentric. After leaving the center of the capital, there were fewer and fewer people wherever we went. Finally, we got into a short and dilapidated alley. From the blackened wall, we finally found our destination. : 37 households in Xishui Lane.
This is a dilapidated small house with dim lighting, firewood piled in the yard, weeds growing, black smoke floating in the kitchen, and violent choking sounds:
"Cough...cough cough cough!"
Si Nannan stepped forward and found that the door was ajar. A woman in her thirties was sitting in front of the stove holding firewood, her face blackened by the smoke.
She smiled: "When did Mrs. Wang fall into this situation?"
Hearing the voice, the woman looked up warily. When she saw the person coming, a strange color flashed through her eyes. She soon showed a charitable smile and walked over quickly and warmly:
"Miss Si? Why are you here?"
She took Si Nannan's hand in surprise and enthusiasm, as amiable as before:
"Quick, come and sit in the main room. The kitchen is dirty and messy. Don't get your skirt dirty."
After entering the main room, she wiped a stool clean with her sleeves. Si Nannan was not in a hurry to sit down, and walked around looking at the surrounding environment. Compared with Wang's house, it was dilapidated.
"Well, Wang's house doesn't wait, why are you here?" she asked quietly.
The woman, Mrs. Wang, Wang Xiangtian's wife, followed Si Nannan, bent slightly and replied:
"Miss Si doesn't know anything. Ever since something happened in the General's Mansion, my husband has been trapped in the military camp and has never been able to come back. In order to reduce the expenses of the Mansion, I moved here."
Si Nannan was amused by these words.
Reduce costs?
For such a poor reason, it seems that in Mrs. Wang's eyes, she is just a child who is easy to fool.
"Mrs. Wang is so diligent and thrifty in managing her family. Vice Admiral Wang will be very pleased to know that."
Si Nannan picked through the worn teacups on the table, the dusty curtains, and the dirty clothes piled on the bed. He curled his lips and smiled: "It's a pity that he has no chance to know."
Mrs. Wang was startled, something flashed in her eyes.
"By the way," Si Nannan suddenly turned around, "I went to Wang's Mansion to see the old housekeeper. The old housekeeper said that you took your slaves back to your parents' house to visit your parents. Why didn't you go back? Why are you the only one in this house?"
"I...I'm going to go back tomorrow..."
"Where is your slave?"
"They..." Mrs. Wang's words were slightly confused, as if she did not expect that Si Nannan would suddenly appear here, "They were all sent away by me. The master has not returned, and the family's money is limited, so they have to save money and food..."
"Haha! Hahahaha!" Si Nannan suddenly laughed loudly.
What about being thrifty and thrifty, what about being frugal in food and clothing, you are really deceiving children here.
"Since Mrs. Wang is going back to her parents' home tomorrow, then..." She narrowed her eyes sharply and pulled out a blue post from under the folded clothes:
"This martial arts examination test letter is obviously useless. Why don't I tear it up for you?"
"No!"
