Dressed as a vicious stepmother, the whole family is full of wealth

Chapter 367, Empty House

Come on, now the two of them can no longer have a deep friendship.

Xiao Qing felt that she would be completely shameless if she stayed any longer. The words of the county prince made her feel that she was sticking to Zhao Zhuoxiang and would not let go, but she couldn't say anything. After all, their family has been helping her family these years, otherwise Xiao Qing Xiao Qing's parents are long gone.

She could only hang her head.

Seeing Xiao Qing lower his head, Zhao Zhuoxiang was afraid that she would be hurt because of this. He walked up to Zhao Qi in a few steps and said in a low voice: "Father, how could you say that? Take back that sentence quickly, our two families have such a good relationship. Can you say that if you don’t have contact, you won’t have contact?”

Taking advantage of Zhao Zhuoxiang's speaking time, Xiao Qing quietly bowed to Xiao Rui and Zhao Qifu, silently exited the main room, and walked outside.

When Xiao Rui saw Xiao Qing leaving, she didn't stop her, but watched quietly. Zhao Qi just raised his eyelids, and his eyes turned to Zhao Zhuoxiang.

After Xiao Qing left for a while, Zhao Zhuoxiang urged Zhao Qi: "Father, go and tell Qingqing, you just said something wrong!"

Zhao Qi sighed and sneered!
Zhao Zhuoxiang looked at Xiao Rui again.

Xiao Rui gave him a wink and asked him to look behind him.

Zhao Zhuoxiang looked back at Xiao Qing, and there was nothing behind, Zhao Zhuoxiang asked in surprise: "Qingqing, Qingqing..."

Realizing that the person had left, he ran out immediately.

Seeing that Zhao Zhuoxiang was about to run out, Zhao Qi ordered: "Stop the little prince, and don't let him leave the palace!"

A few servants at the door agreed, and a few people suddenly stood up and blocked Zhao Zhuoxiang's way.

"Bastard, I want to go out, who dares to stop me, I don't want to live anymore!" Zhao Zhuoxiang cursed, pushing away a few obtrusive people in front, and was about to rush out.

But several people are like a wall, no matter how much Ren Zhao Zhuoxiang pushes, he can't push it away.

"Send the little county king back to his yard, and when I say I can release it, I will release it again!" Zhao Qi ordered.

"Yes!" Several people carried Zhao Zhuoxiang to his yard.

"Let go of me, I won't go, I'm going to find Qingqing, let me go!" No matter how Zhao Zhuoxiang yelled, all the servants in the house pretended not to hear them.

Xiao Rui saw that Zhao Qi was relieved, but her own was uneasy. The Prince's Mansion of Pingning County is now an empty shell. The eldest princess lives in the ear room of the back kitchen with a few wives, eats chaffy vegetables, and takes care of a madman. The rice in the sub-tank has bottomed out, so how can they live?
Xiao Qing is an unarmed and ignorant person. Although she knows the basics, she doesn't know anything. She has returned home, how should she live the next life?

No, she still has to find someone to deliver some things tomorrow, so that they can spend this winter safely.

……

Xiao Qing, who came out of the county palace, came to the door, and saw that there was only one pinzhu looking at several large bundles and cabinets, so she approached her with a smile.

"Master, just now the people from the Prince's Mansion said that their carriage will be used elsewhere, so they will move our things down and put them here!" Seeing Xiao Qing approaching, Pinzhu said hastily.

"It's okay, just put it here. I'll find a carriage later and take us to the Prince's Mansion of Pingning County. That's my home." Xiao Qing said with a gentle smile.

Pinzhu pursed his lips and smiled: "Okay, then I'll go over there to see if there is a carriage, I'll look for it."

"Don't walk around, I'll go, I'm not familiar with Shangjing, I'm worried that you're going the wrong way!" Xiao Qing pressed down her hand to unload the burden.

Pinzhu thought for a while, then nodded: "Alright, then master, be careful, I'll watch our belongings!"

Xiao Qing grinned.

Yong'an County Prince's Mansion and Ning County Prince's Mansion are two streets apart. It takes about an hour to walk back, and about half an hour by car.

An hour later, the two came to the gate of the Prince's Mansion in Pingning County. Xiao Qing asked the coachman to help move the things into the mansion, and wanted to give ten coins, but the coachman said that if he wanted him to move the things to the gate of the ghost house, he would give them ten coins. Twenty Wen, the meaning of breaking wealth and eliminating disasters.

Pin Zhu wanted to argue with the coachman, but Xiao Qing persuaded him to give him twenty Wen before the coachman was willing to leave.

The two stood at the gate, and there was no one here. This was completely different from the previous Pingning County Prince's Mansion.

The two large black doors were partially hidden, and a thick layer of dust had fallen on the door plaques. On the thick dust on the steps on both sides of the door, several faint yellow footprints could be seen, and layers of fallen leaves fell on the door. People cleaned it, and even withered grass grew on the fence. It was desolate and silent inside and outside the door, and no one could be seen.

Looking inside through the concealed door, there is no vitality or hope, like a ruined mansion in an endless wilderness, only the calm black paint door shows the former glory of this home.

"Master, is this your home? Why is there no one here? Standing here, I feel a dark wind blowing out. No wonder the coachman said this is a ghost house. It looks like it. It's even more desolate than our Yaoshan Village!" Pin Zhu wondered asked.

Xiao Qing was not angry, but gave her a reassuring look: "This place used to be very beautiful, and there were many servants at the door. It used to be the busiest mansion in Shangjing City, but the personnel changes, and the people in the mansion died. , Exile, exile, there are not many people left."

"Oh, master, after we move in, we can buy more people and repair the place. It's a pity that such a good mansion has become like this." Pinzhu said distressedly.

In Yaoshan Village, there are adobe and straw houses in every family. She has never lived in a big green brick house like this one. Such a good house should be cleaned and tidied up.

Xiao Qing nodded, pointed to the ashes under their feet and said, "Okay, let's go in first, and find a way to clean up the ashes later!"

"Okay!" Pinzhu followed Xiao Qing into the gate.

Relying on the path in memory, Xiao Qing went to find the yard of the eldest princess and Prince Ning.

After she bypassed the second gate, she entered the front garden. After passing through the front garden, one month after the cave gate, there was her mother's residence, Tranquility Courtyard, which was specially expanded by his father for his mother.

"Master, your house is really big, we've been running until dark, and we haven't reached your mother's place yet!" Pinzhu asked.

Xiao Qing curled up the corner of his mouth and smiled, and continued to walk forward. As it got dark, the house was completely dark, and after half a stick of incense, Xiao Qing stopped in front of a door.

She looked at the darkness inside, and tried to shout: "Dad, mother, Qingqing is back!"

For a long time, no one responded.

She tried calling again, but still no one answered.

"Master, why don't we go in and have a look?" Pinzhu said.

Xiao Qing hummed, and pushed the door first to enter. After pushing hard for a long time, it couldn't be opened.

Pinzhu fumbled for the iron ring on the nose of the door and found a lock on the nose of the door.

"Master, this door is locked, no one lives inside!"

When Xiao Qing heard that no one lived here, she panicked. This is Mother's favorite place. How could there be no one here? Where can father and mother go if they don't live here?

It's getting dark again, the house is so big, if they can't be found anymore, the two of them probably won't even have a place to rest tonight.
