Mrs. Ru twirled her onion-like nails leisurely and said lightly: "Peel off your skin carefully."
The maid was so frightened that she trembled to pieces on the ground and did not dare to breathe.
"Don't be afraid, just tell me everything you know." Aunt Cai glanced at the people on the ground and spoke calmly.
"Say...what to say." The maid's teeth chattered, but she still didn't dare to raise her head.
She was sweeping the yard when she was called over by the maid next to the madam.
She thought that because she was diligent and neat in her work, she was chosen to be transferred to the madam's yard. Unexpectedly, as soon as she entered, she was about to be skinned by the madam, which frightened her to death.
"Let's talk about the lucky girl you know." Grandma Cai introduced the topic to little Fuyuan.
That’s what I was talking about.
Ru made the girl's hanging heart fall back, gritted her teeth, and said in a trembling voice: "Slave... I did say that there are lucky girls in the village... That day, Xiaoque said that there were many families who gave birth to girls. I was cheating under the guise of a lucky girl, so I said I knew a girl who was very lucky... That tiger would bite everyone except the people in her village. My father, my father was killed by a tiger, and she At that time, I was unwilling to say auspicious words for the people in our village."
Thinking of this, hatred flashed in the girl's eyes.
"What else?" Grandma Cai asked.
The girl's voice was flustered at first, but she became more and more steady as she spoke: "Funu's name is Xiao Yuanbao, and her surname is Bai. Servant, I have seen it with my own eyes. Last spring, I was abducted with her by kidnappers. The kidnappers were armed with knives." It was so vicious that they all died in the end.”
When Madam Ru heard this, her calm face moved slightly, and she asked calmly: "How did you die?"
The scene at that time flashed over and over in the rough girl's mind, without having to recall it, the words came directly to her mouth: "Back to Madam, I saw their death with my own eyes. The woman who caught Xiao Yuanbao and the man were chopping vegetables together. Her legs were cut off by a knife, one fell into a latrine and drowned, and there was a thin monkey-faced man who wanted to drag the people around her. She was frightened by a toad and stabbed herself to death because she failed to hold the knife in her hand. The kidnapper was... An Xiucai from our village was bitten to death by a poisonous snake..."
The more the girl recalled, the more frightened she became.
This was the first time Grandma Cai had heard about this, and she couldn't help but look at Mrs. Ru.
Madam Ru leaned on the chair and moved. Aunt Cai stuffed a brocade backrest for her, and Madam Ru leaned firmly against it.
It turns out that An Xiucai and his gang died in this way, which not only exposed the purpose of kidnapping the child, but also almost exposed Prince Kang and the young master. Fortunately, King Kang was able to escape the disaster because of his powerful tactics, but the young master stopped taking Jixue Pills from then on.
Aunt Cai's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that this lucky girl was more powerful than she thought.
Madam Ru stretched her brows and asked in a deep voice, "Raise your head."
Ru made the girl raise her head as if to make a sign.
"What's your name?" Mrs. Ru asked.
"My name is Chunya. The name is vulgar and may offend the lady's ears." said the rough girl.
Madam Ru suddenly chuckled, then pulled out the hairpin in her hand and poked it in Chun Ya's mouth without any warning: "Did you know that the house was planning a wedding for Young Master Zhang Luofu, and did you deliberately make it up?"
The corner of Chunya's mouth was bleeding from being poked, but she endured the pain and tears and shook her head without hesitation.
"Madam, I have never lied again. Even if I have a hundred courages, I would not dare to lie to you. You can find out these things by asking. Xiao Yuanbao's home is in Shenshu Village, and there is a big sycamore tree at the door. Her home She has five brothers. The eldest brother is farming at home, the second brother is a scholar, the third brother works as a clerk at Xu's shop in the town, the fourth brother is in a private school in the town, and the fifth brother is still young at home. She also has three nephews... "
Mrs. Ru threw the hairpin away and said, "I gave it to you! From now on, when you come to sweep my yard, I will call you Xiaoxi."
Chun Ya, who should be called Xiao Xi at this time, felt happy, picked up the hairpin, leaned down and said sincerely: "Thank you, madam."
His mouth, which was pricked by a hairpin, was in excruciating pain whenever he spoke.
Soon, Mrs. Ru and Aunt Cai were the only ones in the room.
"Give the news to King Kang." Mrs. Ru ordered.
"Yes, madam." Nanny Cai responded with a low eyebrow.
…
Shenshu Village, Lao Bai's house.
"Sister Yuan Bao, do you know that A Zhen is a prince?" Feng Zhiheng asked, holding Xiao Fu Yuan's hand.
Xiao Fuyuan nodded.
She had known before that he had a powerful family background, and rounding it off was equivalent to knowing that he was a prince.
Feng Zhiheng supported his forehead.
What's going on?
When her parents told her that the big house across the street was the eldest prince's house, and that the A Zhen she met when she was kidnapped last year was the eldest prince Xia Zhen, she almost lost her temper.
She had already been in trouble because of her engagement to the eldest prince, but now she knew that A Zhen was the eldest prince, she was even more reluctant.
First of all, A Zhen had seen her at her most embarrassed. Secondly, she felt that A Zhen was too cold and fierce. She didn't want to face a cold face all day long.
"Sister Xiao Yuanbao, do you still remember what I told you last time that I was engaged? It was with Xia Zhen, and the marriage was granted by the Queen Mother." A Heng said distressedly.
Xiao Fuyuan tilted her head and thought for a while, then asked, "Don't you like Brother A Zhen?"
Feng Zhiheng nodded, not liking it, not at all.
"If my grandmother hadn't stopped me, I would have resisted the order." Feng Zhiheng said distressedly.
Xiao Fuyuan thought to herself, it's over. Wouldn't A Zhen be sad if she knew that Sister A Heng didn't like her?
"I won't marry you." A Zhen suddenly appeared behind Xiao Fuyuan and said coldly to Feng Zhiheng.
Feng Zhiheng stomped his feet as if he had seen a ghost, and said angrily: "If you have the ability, you can ask the Queen Mother to take back her decree. Who would marry you? If you marry, your neck will be hanging on the edge of a knife. I don't want to marry you."
A Zhen's face turned dark.
Feng Zhiheng scolded the prince and felt a little scared. He quickly ran to hide behind Erlang in the yard.
Xiao Fuyuan looked at A Zhen helplessly, do you know that even if a girl doesn't want to marry you, you can't tell her not to marry her in front of her.
Feng Zhiheng is shameless?
"Brother A Zhen, why don't you want to marry sister A Heng?" Xiao Fuyuan asked in confusion.
A Heng is beautiful and has a great personality. More importantly, she is backed by the Zhongjing Hou Mansion and the Ming Ru Zhou Family. With the support of these two families, A Zhen's path to the top will not be that difficult.
Ah Zhen pursed his lips, his eyes dim and unclear.
"I don't like her, and she doesn't like me either." A Zhen said.
"Then find one you like." Xiao Fuyuan said.
But he also knew that a prince like him could only choose among various noble ladies, but who could help him more than Feng Zhiheng. Xiao Fuyuan is worried about A Zhen.
Ah Zhen's eyes darkened. His mother and father liked each other, but in the end they still ended up hating each other.
