Flowers are expensive

Chapter 6
"Keep your voice down!" Aunt Xie stomped her feet and said softly, "If the steward hears this, I'll be in trouble!"

"Or," said Aunt Ding, who was less courageous, "or, tell the truth to the manager! Our son is hiding, it's okay, Sangu is right, if someone dies, there will be ghosts in the middle of the night." Knock on the door!"

"What's the rush!" Aunt Xie said calmly, "I still don't believe that Guanshi Wang dared to send them into the woods. I guess they were just going through the motions to scare us. You must be steady, otherwise If you don’t, you have to marry a dirty thing to enter the house, and you don’t know whose child you will give birth to! Will you still have the face to see your ancestors when you go to hell? Will you have face?”

The four women fell silent, as if acquiescing to Mrs. Xie's words just now.Aunt Xie said softly again: "Then Steward Wang is not stupid. He sent the girls to the woods and met a wolf or something. Can he afford it? Don't worry, hold on, hold on! ! Take care of yourself, don’t miss a word, otherwise all the previous work will be in vain!”

"En!" The four women nodded in unison.

Half an hour later, under the watchful eyes of the whole village holding torches, Steward Wang sent Lihua and other five new wives into the forest, and was escorted by Ma Liu and two other servants to the purple magpie fairy stone that the village has always admired. go there.

Seeing the flames getting farther and farther behind, Huang Ying tugged at the pear blossoms and asked, "Hey, will your method work? Don't wait until we all serve the mountain god as supper, those sparrows still refuse to hand over their son! Lihua glanced back at Ma Liu who was walking behind, and whispered to them: "I won't ask you to carry all the gold and silver with you before you leave? Who is waiting for their son so honestly? It's not the Liuhe lottery, Can you still send it if you get it? I think, while these three idiots are not paying attention, we will be knocked out and run away, can't we?"

"Damn girl!" Huang Ying almost cried out.

Hong Ling and the other two girls hurriedly covered her mouth and put her in the middle.Huang Ying said in a panic and anxiously: "It's fine if you want to escape, and you want to take us with you?"

Lihua rolled her eyes and said, "It's up to you whether you want to escape or not. It took so many tears anyway. If you don't escape, you're an idiot! If you want to stay, then stay! What about the rest?" They all nodded in unison, in favor of Pear Blossom's decision.Huang Ying asked again, "Where are you running to? Can you find the way?"

"Keep going south, you can always find your way! I'll look at the tree stumps to determine the direction, so don't worry if you follow me!" Lihua said confidently.

"Don't worry?" Huang Ying stuck out her tongue, shook her head and said, "Look at how many times you have escaped, and haven't you all been caught?"

"What do you know? Escaping also pays attention to the right time, place and people. Tonight is the perfect time, hehe..." "Hey!"

After walking for a short time, they came to a huge black rock, and there was no way to go further, it was a towering cliff.After Ma Liu told them to stop, he said, "Just wait here. Steward Wang has said it. Let's wait an hour." Then he ordered the two young men to light two piles of fire, and everyone sat down and waited quietly. caught.

After about half a stick of incense, Lihua gave Hongling a wink, leaned over and said softly: "It's getting late, let's do it, five of us will deal with the three of them..." Before he could finish speaking, there was a sudden sweep in the sky. A flash of lightning pierced the darkness above the forest in an instant, like a giant silver sword.Immediately afterwards, a deafening thunder sounded.The girls hugged each other in fright, staring blankly at the dark sky.

Ma Liu stood up and looked at the sky, and said to himself: "What's going on? Is it going to rain? Or a thunderstorm? It was a fine day just now!"

A boy next to him said with a terrified expression: "Is it true that I offended the mountain god? I heard from my grandma that when the Zique mountain god is angry, it is like lightning and thunder, and it will rain heavily. It's like scooping, no... maybe there will be floods!"
