I work as a housekeeper in Guilou

Chapter 217 Zhang Ying’s Travels ()
Tick, tick, tick.

There was a sound like water dripping in his ears, but Xia Qimiao could not find the source.

She moved two steps, but the volume of the sound did not change, and it still sounded not far or near.

Maybe something was following her and keeping a certain distance from her; or maybe it was because she had a fever and was hallucinating.

Xia Qimiao looked at the bulging appearance of the woman's belly and couldn't help but think of the strange fetus in the copy of the family's funeral.

I always feel like there won't be anything good in it.

"Sanya, come here, mommy will put a scarf on you." The woman's tone was very gentle, but paired with her eyes that had almost no whites, they looked very scary.

Seeing that "Sanya" didn't move, she suddenly laughed and clapped her hands. The sound was not loud, but muffled.

"She's gone. It turns out she's gone. It's good to be gone. It's good to be dead."

"Kill Da Ya and Er Ya, and kill me too. How great, kill me too." She wanted to get up, but the thick chain around her neck pulled her back.

"Crazy woman." Erya gritted her teeth. Unlike her eldest sister, she still had memories of her mother's normal appearance.

And the only deep impression she had on her was that she was holding a kitchen knife to chop her.

If the knife wasn't blunt and she blocked it with a broom, she would be dead now.

"Erya!" Daya glared at her disapprovingly and twisted her slightly.

The latter curled his lips and stopped talking.

When Xia Qimiao heard her words, she didn't know whether she was recognized or whether the woman was simply crazy.

She wanted to take two steps closer and ask some questions, but her hand was held tightly by Da Ya and she couldn't pull it away.

This little girl loves her mother, but she is also wary of her. She is afraid that her mother will go crazy and hurt her sister, so her current action is to prevent her from passing.

It seems that when the mother was imprisoned and the father was unreliable, it was Da Ya who took on the role of mother and took care of the sisters.

So Erya was dissatisfied with her on the surface, but he still cared about her in his heart, so he just shut up after being called out.

The woman's hand stretched out as if she wanted to grab her, but there was a distance as close and far between them as life and death, and she couldn't touch it.

Erya was the first to be impatient, and she urged in a low voice: "Stop looking, let's go."

"If we don't leave, we won't be able to leave until that man sobers up."

Daya pursed her lips and glanced at the woman one last time: "Mom, don't be afraid, I will be back soon."

Hearing this sentence, the woman screamed "ahhh" and "ahhhh".

There was also the sound of things being thrown next door. Erya's face changed drastically, and he couldn't care less, so he helped Sanya and ran away.

Her body was the best among them, and she was also fast. She quickly led Sanya into the path.

The road was short and narrow, but it allowed them to take a short break.

"Where should we find the heroine in white, at El Chapo's house?"

"Better hurry or we'll be discovered soon."

Da Ya was a little nervous. The village was not big and there were no secrets at all. Both pairs of eyes were staring at each other and staring at each other.

"I was so dizzy that I fainted and didn't hear clearly." Under Erya's disbelieving gaze, Xia Qimiao said calmly, "Second sister, please tell me, who are those people?" How do you say Chaozi is dead?" Erya was wandering in that area and listened to the whole process.

"They said Chapo brought an out-of-town woman home, and she seemed to have a child. At first, everyone gathered around to watch the fun, but there was no movement in the house, so they dispersed."

The foreign woman is Lin Jiangdan and the child is Zhang Ying. It's impossible for the murderer to make no sound, the sound must have been blocked by some means.

"Later Yazi went to look for him in his house, only to find that his stomach had been cut open and he was hanging from the beam with his own intestines. When I arrived, he had already been put down."

"Yazi?"

"It's the gap-toothed man at the head of the village. The two of them are the remaining bachelors in the village, so they hang out together every day."

"How do you know so clearly?" Da Ya asked.

Erya's eyes flickered. She couldn't say that she thought anyone from the two families might force her sister, so she went to investigate the situation first. She couldn't say that she was thinking of ways to deal with the villagers.

"Shall we go to Chapo's house now?" Erya thought she had cleverly changed the subject. She felt that this was where the heroine appeared, and she might continue to stay there.

It's just that there are too many villagers gathered there. One person is okay, but three people are too conspicuous and will be considered to be "doing bad things".

If they are together, if they are not careful, they will be watched by someone with intentions, and they will be taken back home.

Xia Qimiao didn't think so. Lin Jiangdan was not as invisible as Li Mu, and there was no need for her to stay there: "Where is Yazi, is he still at Chaozhi's house?"

"No, he ran home after being frightened. He closed the door tightly and refused to go out. He only answered a few calls in the house."

The person who told this news also laughed at him for being timid, so Erya remembered it very clearly.

Keeping the door tightly closed means not going out, but also not letting people in. Being able to speak means that you are still alive.

"Go to Ya Zi's house." Xia Qimiao coughed several times under her throat. It would be better if she coughed it out, but she didn't want to cause too much noise.

"Why did you go to Yazi's house?" Erya immediately said, "I understand. It was because I reminded you that you remembered that the heroine told you his name."

"He won't be the next person that the female hero wants to kill, right?" Erya frowned. Although he was not a good person and liked to chase people away with a broom, he was not considered a bad person against the backdrop of the entire village.

"You'll know once you go there."

Daya gave them a break and came over to help them once they had set a goal.

Erya was very familiar with the terrain here, so she led them on the path and didn't meet anyone along the way.

That's right, most of the people had gone to the house of the dwarf at the end of the village to join in the fun. They were walking in the opposite direction, and they branched off.

As Xia Qimiao walked, she took note of the terrain. She noticed something strange: there was not a single cypress tree here.

If she remembered correctly, Erya seemed to have said before that there were many people here who believed in the god Bai Xian?

She thought about words that would not expose her, and pointed out an open space: "I remember there used to be cypress trees here, why are they gone?"

Erya followed her finger and looked over: "You must be confused because of the fever. Why are there cypress trees here? No one has died here."

"Even if it grows, it will be cut down to make a coffin the next day, otherwise it won't be buried." Da Ya added.

It's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. Xia Qimiao's plan to break a cypress branch to see if she could use her strength failed. She coughed twice and said, "Maybe I'm confused because of the fever."

The village is not big, so they reached their destination quickly.

Xia Qimiao found a hook on the ground.
