Chapter 18 Chunxiao was beaten

After serving Qixinlan to rest, Chunxiang returned to her own cabin. The general's mansion arranged for Chunxiang and Chunxiao to live in the same room. At this time, Chunxiao had fallen asleep because of the unbearable beating and running fatigue.

"Ah!" Chunxiao woke up from his sleep. My head was wet with tea.

"Dead girl, how dare you sleep?" Chunxiang held an empty tea bowl in her hand and said viciously.

"Spring... Sister Chunxiang, you're back." Chunxiao supported his weak body and made it. He wiped the tea on his face with the back of his hand and pinched off a few pieces of tea residue scattered on his cheeks.

Although Chunxiang and Chunxiao are both maids, Chunxiang suppresses Chunxiao everywhere. When the two are together, Chunxiao looks like a master.

"Go, go to the yard and chop the firewood first, and then boil a bucket of bath water for me. I'm going to take a bath soon. This sultry day is so hot. As Chunxiang spoke, she did her bedside and packed up her clothes and small jewelry.

Chunxiao has been running in the capital all day. He is tired and beaten back home. At this time, not to mention chop wood and boiling water, he has no strength to go out for a walk.

Chunxiang saw Chunxiao lying in a daze and had no intention of getting up to boil water. She immediately rushed to Chunxiao's bedside in three steps and two steps, pulled the thin quilt to the ground, and then pulled Chunxiao's hair and roared, "You have the ability, haven't you? How dare you not listen to me?"

"Sister Chunxiang, please, let me go. I was wrong. I didn't mean to be disobedient. I really can't move for a few days. Please." Chunxiao grabbed her painful hair and couldn't stop crying.

"Sister Chunxiang, please let me go, please." Chunxiao pleaded bitterly, but Chunxiang still did not let it go.

"Either, you go to chop wood and boil water now, or you will be beaten again. You can think about it yourself." After saying that, Chunxiao suddenly pushed Chunxiao, and Chunxiao lay on the ground in great pain.

"Okay, I... I'll boil water." Chunxiao got up with difficulty, dragged his weak body, and slowly walked out.

"Give me the action, or be careful not to suffer from that skin again." Chunxiang said proudly while shacking melon seeds. In front of Chunxiao, Chunxiang is her master.

Chunxiao's whole body was weak, and the place where he was beaten had been faintly painful.

Fortunately, she had split some more firewood two days ago. Just add a little more is enough to burn a wooden basin of water for spring incense. It took a lot of effort to chop up the firewood and found that the water tank was almost empty, so she had to get water by the well.

There is a well in the yard. Although it is not far away, it takes a lot of effort to lift the water. By the time the water was poured into the cauldron and burned, Chunxiao was about to collapse.

Chunxiao sat on the ground, watching the fire while taking the opportunity to rest for a while. She is really tired.

"Good damn girl, let you do something and sit here and be lazy." Chunxiang came over and picked up the broom on the ground to fight.

"Sister Chunxiang, I'm not lazy, I'm really not lazy. I've chop wood and watered, and now I'm just waiting for the water to open. Chunxiao was pitiful and begged for mercy.

Chunxiang refused to give in at all. She held Chunxiao's ear and shouted, "Are you still reasonable? Obviously, it's lazy. Since you are waiting for the water to open now, why not find something else to do? Have you swept the yard? Have you washed your clothes? Has the room been tidy? With so much work, are you waiting here?

"Sister Chunxiang, I'm afraid that the fire will be extinguished, and I'm also watching the fire. I didn't mean to be lazy. Chunxiao couldn't stop crying. If it goes on like this, she really can't live.

"Do you still dare to argue? How dare you talk back?" Chunxiang was angry and slapped Chunxiao heavily in the face. Chunxiao's cheek suddenly left a palm print, and the corners of her mouth were bloody.

"Go and pick some petals for me. I'm going to take a bath. Come back before the water boils. Remember to add firewood before you go. If the fire goes out, I will put you out. Spring fragrance is as powerful as a female tiger.

"Yes, I'm going." Chunxiao didn't dare to talk back. The more wrong she said, the more she would be beaten and scolded.

Chunxiao burned the fire and took the basket to the garden of the general's mansion.

This is the second time that Chunxiao has followed Qi Xinlan to the general's mansion. He also knows a little about the situation in the house and can find the garden smoothly. However, it is midsummer, and it is not the flowering season at all. Fortunately, the gardener in the general's mansion is so powerful that you can still see some flowers in the garden.

" Stop it!" As soon as Chunxiao was about to pick flowers, he was stopped by a voice.

"These flowers are the old lady's favorite. Now the weather is hot, and the gardener can't protect them. Where are you from? How dare you pick them without authorization?" It was Guo Qixuan, who was patrolling the general's mansion.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know this was the old lady's beloved flower. I didn't dare to touch it." Chunxiao is weak and looks down with shame.

"You're new here. Don't be so ignorant in the future." Guo Qixuan said. He is not an unreasonable person. Since the little maid admits his mistake, he naturally no longer pursues anything.

"I came from Tongcheng to the general's mansion to celebrate the old lady's birthday. When I first came here, I didn't understand the rules. I almost made a big mistake just now, thanks to this big brother's reminder. It's just that I need to pick some flowers now and bathe Sister Chunxiang. I hope you can give me some advice. Where can I pick some flowers in this house? Chunxiao said.

"It turned out to be from the Qi family. But I'm afraid it's a little difficult for you to pick flowers. There seems to be no flowers in our general's mansion in summer except for the lotus flowers in the pond. Guo Qixuan racked his brains and couldn't figure out where there were flowers.

"Brother, there are many gardenia, honeysuckle, and peonies in summer..." Chun Xiao said several kinds of flowers that bloom in summer. Although there are not as many as spring flowers, there are also several.

"It's too bad. The general's mansion just doesn't have these. The third master hates the fragrance of gardenia the most, and the old lady feels that the peony is tacky, so she doesn't have it. As for the honeysuckle, maybe you can consider letting the gardener get some in the future. Guo Qixuan said this, and Chunxiao's heart was cold.

Chunxiao knew that Chunxiang was allergic to lotus flowers, and other flowers could not be picked. He would inevitably be beaten by Chunxiang when he went back empty-handed. She remembered Qi Xinlan's warning that if she couldn't find that poison, she would starve to death. A wave of grief and indignation surged in his heart, and he squatted on the ground and cried.

"Ah, girl, don't cry, don't cry!" Guo Qixuan was a little at a loss.

"Isn't it just that you can't pick flowers? Is it so sad? Go back and tell her that there are no flowers to pick in the general's mansion. She will definitely not embarrass you. Guo Qixuan continued to comfort.

Chunxiao cried more and more. Guo Qixuan wanted to pull her up. As soon as his hand touched Chunxiao's arm, Chunxiao shouted in pain.

"You're hurt." Guo Qixuan was a practitioner with some kung fu and stayed in the barracks. Suddenly, he found that Chunxiao was injured.

"Brother, please, let me pick a few flowers, just a few, let me go back to pay, or I will be killed." Chunxiao begged bitterly.

Guo Qixuan was in a dilemma, and at this time, the savior appeared.

"Guo Qixuan, are you here?" Su Wanqing walked here with the old lady and just met her.

"Old lady, Aunt Su." Guo Qixuan lowered his head.

"What's the matter? Why did this girl squat on the ground and cry? Did you stinky boy bully others?" The old lady is like half a grandson to Guo Qixuan.

"No, old lady, this eldest brother didn't bully me." Chunxiao suddenly stood up and felt a little dizzy. Su Wanqing immediately supported Chunxiao.

"Ah, hiss!" Su Wanqing also encountered Chunxiao's wound.

Su Wanqing immediately pulled Chunxiao's wrist and swirled, "You are injured and have a fever. Moreover, he is too tired and extremely weak. He should stay in bed. Why is his body like this and still running outside? Don't you want to die?"

"I can't help it." Chunxiao bit his lips.

At this time, it was already late. The old lady wanted to go back to rest, but Su Wanqing couldn't let go of the patient. She was a very medical person and simply said to the old lady, "Grandma, this girl is too weak. Why don't we take her back and save people's lives than building a seven-level buoy. Grandma, people who burn incense and worship Buddha all day naturally have to accumulate this merit, right?

"Well, take it back. I also want to know that there are people in the general's mansion who dare to treat maids like this. I have already said that you are not allowed to beat and scold servants casually. Why is it still like this? The old lady agreed.

Chunxiao has been in Qi Mansion for many years and is also very eye-catching. He immediately knelt down tremblingly, "Thank you, old lady, thank you, Aunt Su."

At this time, Chunxiao has only one idea in her heart. She will do her best to stay with the old lady, never be scolded and beaten by Miss Qi again, and never be bullied by the maid Chunxiang again. She will jump out of the sea of suffering.

Guo Qixuan looked at Su Wanqing silently and felt very uncomfortable. He knew that he could not expect it, but he was still reluctant and couldn't let it go. He sent the old lady and his party to Songhezhai, and then watched Su Wanqing's back disappear.

"Oh, my God! Who did this? This poor child is really suffering. The old lady exclaimed and returned to Songhezhai. After holding the lamp, she found that the girl's face was blue and purple, which was very terrible.

"The maids you belong to in the general's mansion, I will take good care of these villains." The old lady patted the table.

"Mrs. Chunxiao is the maid of Qi Mansion, specializing in serving Miss Qi. She is not the maid of the general's mansion. However, Chunxiao still thanks the old lady for her pity. Chunxiao kowtowed quickly.

"Alas, she is a sensible girl, but my general's mansion is not easy to interfere in the affairs of Qi's house. I pity you." The old lady thought that the mother and daughter of Qifu would come to celebrate her birthday. If she went to the girl, she would hurt the face of the two families, which was not suitable. I can only feel sorry for this little pity.
