sweet wife little confused

Chapter 136 The Light in the Darkness

In the desolate outskirts, in an unknown Zhuangzi, in an unknown yard.

An Xiu'er was also lying on the bed, from day to night, she repeated the same stories about Mammy over and over again, without any new tricks, she had already told that she had no more stories to tell, but still no one came in the courtyard.

An Xiu'er originally wanted to wait for someone to deliver the food, but at night, when she was extremely hungry, she realized that she had thought too much.

This strange place made her suffer a lot, but she still has a child, and she doesn't want to starve her child, but Wu Shi is really ruthless, she doesn't even prepare food for her, could it be that she really intends to starve her to death?
She thinks it shouldn't.

After lying on the bed for a long time, when she got up from the bed at this moment, An Xiu'er's mind was extremely clear.

"I'll go and see if there is anything to eat." An Xiu'er said, "They don't bring me food, maybe they want us to be self-reliant. I guess there might be a small kitchen here."

"You stay here, I'll go and see." Mammy said, she got up neatly, put on her shoes, and told Ban Xia, "Look at Madam, I'll go out and look for it."

"Hey, be careful." Ban Xia said to Nanny.

Momo went out in the dark, only An Xiu'er and her were left in the dark room, Ban Xia was younger than An Xiu'er, she was a little scared, and moved closer to An Xiu'er.

An Xiu'er comforted her, "Don't be afraid."

"I'm not afraid." Ban Xia replied, if her voice didn't tremble, these words might be more convincing.

"There's nothing to be afraid of. Nanny will be back later." An Xiu'er said, she reached out to touch her hand, intending to give her some strength, but just as her hand reached out, Ban Xia immediately retracted He shook his hand, his body trembled, and he said in a low voice, "What is it?"

An Xiu'er grasped her hand, "You little girl, you are so timid."

"When I was in the mansion, there were lanterns at night. Even if I slept with my wife in the outer room, there was always a candle outside. I have never stayed in such a dark environment before." Ban Xia shook her head. Holding An Xiu'er's hand, she asked, "How long are we going to stay here?"

"I don't know." An Xiu'er shook her head, if possible, she naturally didn't want to stay any longer.

"It's a pity that the Lord doesn't know we're here, but he should come back and look for us. If he can't find us, then we won't stay here forever, right?" Ban Xia was about to cry up.

"No, don't talk nonsense." An Xiu'er said, some people want her to stay here for the rest of her life, but if no one comes to save her, she will definitely find a way to escape.

"But..." Ban Xia hesitated to speak, seeing that the old god An Xiu'er was still there, she also settled down and said no more.

The two of them stayed quietly in this dark room, not saying a word, the wind whistling outside, like ghosts crying, it was very scary to cry like complaints, inside the room, it was so quiet that you could even hear yourself clearly breathing.

An Xiu'er is actually most afraid of the dark, she is not a very courageous girl, but she knows that fear is useless, and when she thinks of the child in her womb with her, she is not afraid anymore, she is going to be a mother soon, You have to set a good example for your children.

In fact, the reason why people fear the darkness is not the darkness itself, but the unknown things in the darkness, for example, the sound of footsteps in the darkness.

There was a soft voice, as if something was walking by with its heels on its heels. If it was daytime, it would not be scary, but because it was night, it would be a little intrusive.

Ban Xia, who just said that she was not afraid, hugged An Xiu'er's arm tightly. An Xiu'er also tensed up when she saw the light outside the house, and pricked up her ears.

The door was pushed open, and a familiar voice came, it was Mammy, holding a hemp stick in her hand, she walked towards An Xiu'er and the two of them, her tone was more relaxed, "There is a small kitchen behind, there are firewood and rice noodles in the kitchen .”

"Then we can cook and eat." Ban Xia said happily.

Nanny reprimanded her and said, "You know how to eat all day long. I asked you to find charcoal before, but you said no. Isn't this firewood just charcoal?"

"Don't blame Mama, I didn't think so much at the time, I didn't go to that room." Ban Xia whispered.

At that time, she only looked for the left and right main rooms and side rooms, and didn't even go to the back.

"Okay, now I don't have time to worry about you, I boiled water in the kitchen, let's all go to warm our bodies from the kitchen, where I lit a fire." Mammy said.

An Xiu'er got out of bed, and she put on her shoes and socks with a rustle. Seeing the indifferent Ban Xia, the mother at the side said again, "Ban Xia, your movements are slower than Ma'am. It's so unruly."

"Ma'am said, special circumstances, don't care about those rules." Ban Xia said playfully, and after putting on their shoes and socks, the three of them went to the small kitchen in the backyard together.

Nanny walked in front holding the hemp pole, Ban Xia helped An Xiu'er and walked behind, at first she still supported her, but when she went out, she hugged her arm tightly, she The force was a bit strong, and An Xiu'er felt a little pain. She turned her head to look at the owner of her arm, and seeing her frightened face, she didn't make a sound.

The yard is so big, and the small kitchen is just behind the main house. Even if you walked around the main house to get to the small kitchen, you only walked a few dozen steps.

In the kitchen, Mammy had already lit a fire in the stove, at this moment the kitchen was indeed warmer than other places.

"Ma'am, sit down." Mammy found a small stool in front of the stove and signaled An Xiu'er to sit down. She put a handful of firewood into the stove and said, "I'll find a basin, and I'll let you soak your feet later." It's warm and warm, although it's not as good as the hot spring at home, but now we can barely make it in this place."

"It's okay." An Xiu'er shook her head and said, "I can afford hardship."

"I've wronged you." The nanny told Ban Xia to take good care of An Xiu'er, and went out to find the wooden basin by herself.

When she came back after finding the wooden basin, the water was already quite hot. She served Anxiuer's feet with water, but she was busy with herself, planning to make a bowl of noodles.

"Ban Xia, Mammy is busy, go and help make the fire." An Xiu'er told Ban Xia beside her, she didn't need her to serve her right now.

Ban Xia heard the words and went to the stove, and the mother told her to make the fire bigger, she only added firewood to the stove, and in an instant, there was thick smoke in the room, and the mother quickly asked her to blow on it with the torch Well, she was fine and blew the ashes off her face.

Mammy couldn't laugh or cry, so she motioned for her to stand aside and save the fire by herself.

An Xiu'er looked at Ban Xia's big painted face and couldn't laugh or cry, "Ban Xia, have you never even started a fire?"

Ban Xia shook her head, "Never."

"Could it be that you haven't been in the kitchen before?" An Xiu'er said, "Have you ever done any housework?"

"Housework?" Ban Xia was a little puzzled by the word housework, and said, "What is housework? Do you mean rough work? I have been in the kitchen before, but I usually pass the dishes. By the way, doing it yourself is Never."

"Rough work." An Xiu'er chewed on these two words.

Ban Xia then said: "Yes, there are special maids who do all these sweeping tasks. As the big maid next to Madam, my main duty is to take care of Madam and make Madam happy. I don't have to do those rough jobs."

Seeing her natural appearance, An Xiu'er laughed at herself. It turns out that the Wu family doesn't like her. It seems to be true. She can't even compare to a slightly better maid in Zhang's family, and her maids don't even touch Yang Chun. water.

"It used to be in the past, but now we are not in Zhang's house, and there is no rough maid for you to order. You have to learn to do these jobs, otherwise, are you going to let Madam do it?" Mammy said displeased.

"I didn't say no, I'll learn." Ban Xia said, she was An Xiu'er's big maid after all, even in the Zhang family, this nanny was just on an equal footing with her, and she was not qualified to teach her a lesson, but Regardless of her age, Ban Xia would listen to her.

"Okay, don't talk about this, we don't know how long we will stay here, from now on, let's do these tasks together." An Xiu'er said: "If I can, I will help."

"How can you do it, we will at most do some cleaning and cooking, maybe they forgot about us today, and someone will come over tomorrow." Mammy said and put a handful of noodles in inside the pot.

After cooking for a while, she took out the noodles and found some miso in the cabinet. She directly mixed the miso on the noodles, put some salt, stirred it, and put a bowl of noodles on Anxiu In front of his son, "Madam must be very hungry, eat."

An Xiu'er took the bowl, frowned and said, "Nurse, why do you only make one bowl?"

"We'll cook it after you eat it," Mammy said.

She is a person who respects rules. She feels that although An Xiu'er is down and out, at this time, she must maintain a good moral character and not expose her true nature just because she has encountered bad things. The owner is disrespectful.

An Xiu'er knew what kind of person Nanny was, and after a few words of persuasion, she gave up and just stared at the noodles in her hand.

After mixing it twice, she ate it with big mouthfuls.

The strange thing is that there was a period of time when delicate dishes were tasteless, but this bowl of noodles actually awakened the long-lost feeling in her heart. She felt that this bowl of noodles was very delicious.

An Xiu'er ate big mouthfuls, her appearance was not very elegant, she almost gobbled it up. When she started, she was still chewing on the last two noodles that she didn't swallow, so she stretched her arms contentedly, and said: "Really! Delicious, as if my mother made it."

"It's just a simple preparation, it's not delicious." The nanny said modestly, "Ma'am, you are too hungry."

"Maybe it is." An Xiu'er said, before continuing to eat noodles.
