Tofu Xishi: General Mo ran

Chapter 89

Five days later, in the main room of the Miao Mansion, Xiao Jiaozi was holding a bowl of chicken noodle soup with a worried face, and cautiously called her Miss.

"Miss, this noodle has been reheated three times. If you don't eat it again, it will turn into a bowl of noodle soup."

Miao Douer acted as if she had never heard of it, she just stared blankly at the lantern in her hand.

This is a lantern in the shape of a lotus flower. In the wick, half of the unburned candle is quietly sticking inside.

Underneath the candle was a small note sealed with wax.Miao Douer had already opened that little note.

On the note, there was a line of small characters written with style.

"Wish to marry Miao Dou'er."

Xiao Jiaozi saw that her young lady was still in a daze, she was anxious and angry, she simply put the noodles on the table, and snatched the note from Miao Douer's hand.

"Miss, don't worry about where my uncle has gone. If you continue not to eat, if you come back, you will blame us for not taking good care of you."

The note in Miao Douer's hand was taken away, and only then did she seem to come to her senses.

"I'm not too hungry."

"You have to eat even if you are not hungry! You have to be forced by your servants every day to be able to eat half a bowl of noodles, but today it is almost sunset and the rice water is still not in, what's wrong!"

Suddenly, Miao Douer turned to look out the window.

"It's almost sunset," Miao Dou'er said with some uncertainty in her voice, "Little Dumpling, do you think my uncle can go home tonight?"

Little Jiaozi's heart felt sour, and she saw tears were about to fall down.

After visiting the Lantern Festival that day, my uncle suddenly disappeared.The clothes in the house were still there, and there was no sign of him coming home.

It's just that people are missing.

That night, Miao Dou'er searched the city almost all over again, and then waited for three days with the lantern under the willow tree where the young master disappeared. It wasn't until yesterday that he was persuaded to go back by Mr. Hu, the county magistrate. Home.

But the lady returned home, but the soul has not returned yet.

Day by day, he was only in a daze, and he didn't even want to eat.

"Little Jiaozi, do you think my uncle will be in any danger? Before he disappeared, he told me to wait for him. I thought he was going to buy me something, but he never came back... "

Miao Dou'er looked up at Xiao Jiaozi, as if she wanted to find the answer from her: "Or, my uncle's old injury relapsed, and he fainted somewhere?"

Xiao Jiaozi was so questioned that she was speechless, she hardly dared to look down at her young lady's burning eyes.

Little Jiaozi gritted her teeth and held back her tears, stomped her foot hard, ignored her own lady, turned around and walked out of the main room.

Xiao Jiaozi walked quickly across the courtyard, reaching out to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Ah, the note is still in my hand." Only then did Xiao Jiaozi realize that the note she snatched from the lady's hand was still in her hand.

Just as she was about to turn around and return the note to Miao Douer, she was stopped by the old planer who had been nestling in the corner of the yard smoking a pipe.

"Little dumpling, come here."

Little Dumpling didn't know why, so she walked over.

The old planer reached out and asked Xiao Jiaozi to ask for the note, then squinted at the setting sun and looked at it from a distance, and then gently folded the note.

"I'm going to persuade Miss, this, I'll bring it to her."

Little Dumpling nodded with red eyes.

The old planer smoked the last puff of dry tobacco, knocked the cigarette pot on the bottom of his feet, knocked out the ash, and then pinned the cigarette rod to the waist rope, smashed it and smashed it in his mouth.

The old planer walked towards the main house and knocked on the door.

"Miss? I'm an old man, so I want to say a few words to you."
