Exquisite ingenuity

Chapter 307 Gold Bracelet

Like a bat in the dark night, Dafu quietly entered Yang's kitchen.

Wei Qi's eyes were heavy: "Play by ear, and save that woman."

Dafu took orders and was about to leave, but Wei Qi asked him again: "How is Commander Song?"

Zhao Jinyi was still asleep with his eyes closed, unaffected in the slightest.

Dafu reported: "Commander Song was stunned by Zhang Dalang's medicine, and I'm afraid he won't wake up until tomorrow."

Wei Qi gave a "tsk" sound: "Unexpectedly, the small village is also full of dangers."

His voice was extremely low, but anyone in the kitchen could hear him.

But the person he wanted to tell was soundly asleep.

Dafu was about to leave, but Wei Qi said: "Su Yi, you also go together."

Su Yi was stunned: "Master, who can protect you when the servant is gone?"

Wei Qi said: "There will be no more danger. Besides, those bad guys would never think that I would hide in the kitchen. Also, there is Er Fu guarding outside."

Su Yi had to be ordered to leave.

Calm was restored in the kitchen.

Wei Qi said: "Is the fourth girl not worried about Commander Song at all?"

In the dark night, there was a clear and cold voice: "There is someone praying for the Lord, and the women are not worried. The Lord will not just watch the court officials being murdered."

Wei Qi choked, but had nothing to say.People trust him so much, it seems that his situation is small.

However, although Song Jingxing wanted to be rescued, why not let him suffer?
Wei Qi glanced at Zhang's courtyard. Those people had all entered the house, and they couldn't see anything. He turned his head and insisted on talking to Zhao Jinyi: "Guess Si, guess what I saw just now?"

Zhao Jinyi closed his eyes: "Mr. Qi Lang saw several people entering Zhang's house, and one of them was a woman."

She guessed it right!But she was sleeping all the time, how did she save it? !

Before Wei Qi asked, Zhao Jinyi said in a low voice, "This village is so quiet, and the kitchen is next to the gate of the Zhang family. If you calm down and listen carefully, you can hear everything clearly."

Wei Qi felt ashamed for a moment.

He has forgotten that in the dark night, although the eyes cannot see, as long as he calms down and listens carefully, any small movement will be magnified a hundred times.

In Zhang's house, there was actually a simple secret room.It is not the same as the secret room, but the windows are extremely small and sealed.

Mrs. Zhang held up the torch, pushed open the heavy door, and lit the oil lamps inside with a blank expression.There is a simple wooden bed in the secret room, a wide and long wooden box is placed on a low table, and several two-foot-high clay pots are stacked on the wall.

In the simple house, there is a smell of tulips that is rarely seen in the countryside.

Mrs. Zhang stood for a while before she saw the woman with a blank face enter the secret room. When she saw Mrs. Zhang, her eyes were obviously a little dependent.

The woman's abdomen was still a little obvious under the loose clothes.This is a pregnant woman.

But she is extremely young, and her hair is still combed in a double bun. Her immature face and double buns both show that she is still a girl waiting to be married.

Mrs. Zhang lowered her eyelids.Another poor and hateful person.

The little girl's voice was obviously panicked: "Sister-in-law, what should I do?"

Mrs. Zhang opened the wooden box, took out a small porcelain bottle from inside, and handed it to the little girl with a blank expression: "Take this medicine, and there will be a reaction within half an hour."

The little girl took the porcelain bottle, with hesitation on her face, she asked, "Does it hurt?"

"It's not painful to have a baby." Mrs. Zhang replied coldly, sarcastically, "Since eating the forbidden fruit with others, I will think of this day."

The little girl didn't expect Mrs. Zhang to taunt her so mercilessly, and she immediately felt embarrassed.

"You take the medicine first, and I will come to see you later. You can sleep in this bed." As long as the little girl takes the medicine, her task is completed, and the next thing is Zhang Dalang's business.

"Wait!" Mrs. Zhang was about to leave when the little girl stopped her, "This medicine smells so bitter, can you...can you give me a bowl of water and a candied fruit?"

Zhang Dalang was standing outside.

Mrs. Zhang looked at Zhang Dalang, saw him nodding, and replied: "Yes."

She went out, closed the door by the way, and let out a bad breath.

Zhang Dalang looked at the clothes she was wearing, and said with a smile: "Seeing that summer is coming, the lady can make new clothes again. My father-in-law's money for medicine is also gone." The sound insulation of the secret room is not bad, so he Dare to speak without fear.

Mrs. Zhang looked at the other two people hiding in the darkness, she didn't make a sound, she just went to the main room to pour water.

After pouring the water, she remembered that there were still a few candied fruit in the cabinet in the main room, but she searched the drawer and only found a piece of malt candy.

When she came back with the tray, Zhang Dalang had a bad expression on his face: "Why did it take so long?" Originally, according to the plan, there was plenty of time, but how did he expect that there would be officers and soldiers staying overnight in the village, and Song Jingxing at home.After going back and forth, the time is a bit rushed.

Mrs. Zhang glared at him: "Why don't you come?"

Zhang Dalang stopped talking.

Mrs. Zhang opened the door and went in. The little girl was sitting on the bed, stroking her stomach. Seeing Mrs. Zhang coming in, a trace of nervousness flashed across her face.

Mrs. Zhang put the tray on the low table expressionlessly, and said coldly: "There is no candied fruit, only a piece of malt candy."

The little girl picked up the water, and suddenly asked her again: "Does sister-in-law have a child?"

A trace of pain flashed across Mrs. Zhang's face, and she said coldly: "So what if you have it, so what if you don't have it?" She will never have her own child again in this life.

The little girl stroked her belly again: "It would be great if my sister-in-law could adopt my child." She looked up at Mrs. Zhang, with hope shining in her eyes, "I can ask someone to give money to my sister-in-law quietly in the future, as long as my sister-in-law Don't treat my children poorly. I can assure you that my family is very rich and I have a lot of dowry. You see, the bracelet on my hand can be given to my sister-in-law at this time."

The bracelet on the little girl's hand was made of pure gold, shining brightly under the candlelight.

She actually had this in mind.But she will not save it, her child will not survive in this world, even she herself will become a beautiful corpse before the sun comes out tomorrow, and will be enshrined in the Buddhist pavilion on Mount Wutai soon, becoming a sacrifice.

But don't do it for nothing.

Mrs. Zhang finally had a smile on her face.Regardless of Zhang Dalang's warning outside the door, she said with a smile: "Sister, why not give the gold bracelet to sister-in-law at this time, and sister-in-law will go to the village to find a nurse."

The little girl really took off the two gold bracelets from her hands and stuffed them into Mrs. Zhang's hands, her eyes were full of gratitude: "Thank you, sister-in-law."

Hey, she is really innocent, a little girl with little experience in the world, no wonder she was coaxed to eat the forbidden fruit, and she also listened to the slander of strangers, thinking that the child would be born safely and smoothly.

Mrs. Zhang weighed the heavy bracelet, and her face was a little more sincere: "Sister, take the medicine quickly, sister-in-law will go find a nurse."

The door of the secret room was closed, Mrs. Zhang glanced at Zhang Dalang: "Because my sister gave me two gold bracelets, I should be gentle with her."

Zhang Dalang squinted his eyes: "My wife is still capable."

The little girl had a reaction within a quarter of an hour of the medicine she took.First, the abdominal pain was like colic, and the dead baby was born two hours later, and then Zhang Dalang and the others put the dead baby into clay pots.

After two quarters of an hour, Zhang Dalang couldn't wait to open the door and go in.
