Chapter 181, the last resort
The carriage picked up Xiaochu from the Ministry of Criminal Justice and placed him in an alley. The car was driven by the family of the Chu family, and two women came out of the door. Everyone didn't look good to Xiaochu: "Come out!"
When I came down, I saw a small yard, three main rooms and two wing rooms. There was no one else in it, only the families of the two men and two women around me.
"Go to the room!" Women don't speak in a good tone. Xiaochu came in silently and saw the cold quilt in the room, the tentacles were slightly wet, and the room was slightly moldy. There was no one living here for a while.
There is no hot water or hot tea, and there is no dinner for Xiaochu who only had lunch. One of the women opened the door with rough hands and feet, and one pushed it on Xiaochu's back. Xiaochu staggered into the door. Behind them, the door was closed; and then there was a sound of copper locks.
This door is locked!
It was a cold moon at night. Xiaochu sat in the room with his arms in his arms, facing the winter moon, and was even more worried about Chu Huaixian. Prince, is he... okay? It was not until the next morning that Xiaochu fell asleep on the bed.
In my sleep, I heard a quarrel. Xiaochu opened his eyes from the couch, and Jin Xier was jumping outside: "Master let me look at her, but he didn't let her freeze to death!" If you get frozen, you will take responsibility."
The family outside speaks more unpleasantly: "If such a person dies, he will die." Xiaochu didn't say anything when he heard it. This is not like the environment encountered by some people who travel, which can build planes and cannons, which can overwhelm people. Lin Xiaochu tried his best to be smart and met a good family, but this ancient system could not be changed.
Jin Xier was so angry that she had nothing to say, so she had to say fiercely, "Okay, I'll go back to the master. If the master wants to freeze her to death, it's better to shut her in the yard!"
He said that when he heard Xiaochu shouting at him, there was a lock on the door, and Xiaochu spoke out of the door: "Where is my sister?" The family curled their lips and Jin Xi'er came over and said, "I've seen it. She's fine." Xiaochu's eyes turned red and said, "That's good." Then he said, "Where's the prince?"
The family heard it sneered, and Jin Xier whispered, "I haven't seen it yet." Xiaochu was gloomy. Jin Xier saw it and said sadly, "You are not a person who has no affection at all. Why bother to do this!" Jin Xier wants to scold Xiaochu.
Xiaochu was still gloomy. Jin Xier looked at this gly and said helplessly, "If you have a good birth, it's not good for you to come back and see you. You will be sad." Xiao Chuxin said sourly, "When will he come back?"
Jin Xier really didn't know. He scratched his head and changed the topic: "Mr. Gong is looking for you to settle accounts." Xiaochu raised his eyes and Jin Xier said, "What medicine did you give Xiaoyi? She has fascinated the peach girl and hasn't woken up yet.
Xiaochu said quietly, "That medicine is fine. I gave it to the prince's bird, and I woke up after sleeping for a long time." Jin Xier couldn't bear to scold, "You idiot! Fascinated by the prince's bird, you didn't find that he had known it for a long time!"
"You already knew it?" Xiaochu asked, Jin Xier made a posture to fall down, patted her forehead, and inhaled Xiaochu, "You are really stupid!"
Xiaochu lowered her head, walked away from behind the door, and returned to sit on the couch. It was her posture of holding her knees and looking out last night. Jin Xier sighed and said to the family in charge: "I went back and asked the master to come again. I don't believe that the master is going to starve her to death."
The family disdained: "Go and ask, anyway, the master only said to take care of it, not about food and drink, and still wants to set her on fire." Jin Xier ignored it and went out to go home.
Not long after, Jin Xier did not come. A stewman came to the house and set up a brazier in Xiaochu's room and arranged for her to eat. Xiaochu didn't take a few bites, thinking about Chu Huaixian, so he put down his chopsticks.
Three days later, Jin Xier brought back Chu Huaixian's sentence: "Think about it for Xiaoyi." Xiaochu heard that he was at a loss, and Jin Xier couldn't bear to say, "What you mean is that you don't want to die." Xiaochu whispered, "I know." He was at a loss and said, "Just this sentence?"
Jin Xi'er said, "That's the only sentence." Xiaochu took the belt in his hand, rubbed it over, and looked around for half a day. Jin Xier didn't know when he would leave.
Chu Huaixian came out of the palace three days later. Mrs. Chu and her family were waiting for him in the room. Chu Huaixian couldn't kneel down when he entered the door and understood Chu Shaofu one by one: "... Lord Huang came to tell me that I could have stopped him. For a moment of anger, he didn't stop him but followed. Now think about it, this is all someone else's trap.
"I really didn't expect to raise a son like you." Chu Shaofu said this, and Chu Huaixian kowtowed to Mrs. Chu again: "Let grandma worry that it's the grandson." Mrs. Chu asked him to come closer and hugged him sadly, "It's not my fault to give you anything since you were a child. If I gave her to you earlier, it wouldn't have been like this."
Mrs. Chu just sighed when she saw her son's face full of regret. Chu Shaofu thought carefully about his son's words, sighed goodbye and sighed, "Tell him that I don't want to talk to him."
"Your third aunt recognized Xiaochu as her niece. When you come out, she will send her to your third aunt's house. Grandma said that she would ask two more sisters in the palace who teach etiquette to teach her. What do you think?" Mrs. Chu said it, and Chu Huaixian burst into tears: "Thank you, grandmother, for your love. I was wrong about this. However, Xiaochu, I really like her, and she and Zheng Yi are really nothing.
Chu Shaofu said hatefully, "Don't mention her! I don't feel good about her!" Mrs. Chu also said angrily, "Marrying is married, it's a flat wife. After this storm, you have to marry whoever you should marry next year!"
Chu Huaixian agreed repeatedly: "Yes." After he hesitated and wanted to say something, Chu Shaofu shouted, "Go!" Chu Huaixian replied, "It's good to put Xiaochu in a separate place. This must be full of wind and rain in the city. It's not that the third aunt's family is not good, but that the third aunt's family talks a lot. Xiaochu's nature is a person who can't eat people's words..."
"Wo! You still have such a heart now!" Chu Shaofu was furious: "First think about what to do with our family, who is full of storms!" Chu Shaofu said angrily, "I don't think it's your marriage. No matter how many posts you go out, no one will come. If you don't post, it's not serious as if it's a marriage for you. You are pissing me off!"
Chu Huaixian said quickly, "My father is angry, but he is afraid of making his father angry. Please ask his parents to put Xiaochu alone. I go to see it from time to time and teach her myself." Chu Shaofu said angrily again, "You don't have to go! Let's figure out what's going on first. Chu Huaixian lowered his head silently and had nothing more to say.
Mrs. Chu sighed and said to Mrs. Chu, "This is a good teaching. Don't piss me off!" Chu Huaixian shut his mouth even more interestingly. Xiaochu made this come out, and everyone didn't like it at home. At this time, he regretted why he didn't stop her.
Half an hour later, Chu Shaofu and his son were still talking secretly in the room, and Mrs. Chu took several people out of the door. A big sedan chair sat on Mrs. Chu, followed by two carriages.
The sedan chair and carriage came to Guan Xiaochu's place. Mrs. Chu got off the sedan chair, looked at the small courtyard outside the door and said, "It's a little smaller." When she came in again, the family members were watching to greet her. Mrs. Chu said lightly, "Thank you for your hard work." Let someone open the lock on the door. Mrs. Chu walked in with a girl's hand.
Looking at the decorations in the house, Mrs. Chu frowned first: "You can't live in this place. Is this what the master ordered to treat her like this?" The family hurriedly smiled: "It's quite warm, and the brazier has also been sent, and there is no shortage of food and drink..." Speaking of this, Mrs. Chu's face darkened, and Xiao Chu, who knelt in front of her, said, "This man is still useful. He can't be sick or hurt."
This casual finger doesn't pay attention to Xiaochu, but only thinks she is a useful thing.
"Yes, yes," the family hurriedly laughed and sat in the middle with Mrs. Chu. Mrs. Chu asked them all to go out, and a pair of eyes containing world affairs was placed on Xiaochu: "Come here."
Xiaochu came over and knelt down and asked gently, "How's your son?" Mrs. Chu said lightly, "For good, your life has not been calculated by you." Xiaochu covered his face and cried, "I know it's my fault."
"It's not that you know it's your fault. This sentence can pass." Mrs. Chu didn't sound angry, but in fact, she was also angry. After getting old and going through the world, Mrs. Chu still spoke slowly: "The man who abducted you also told the truth, saying that he did not see the prince kill with his own eyes, but Mrs. Liu, who died, was a preacher. Blessed by the Bodhisattva, fortunately he is not a person who wants to harm others.
Xiaochu burst into tears: "I... didn't know it would be like this." Mrs. Chu said coldly, "I don't know it will be like this, and I don't know it will happen. Who knows if I don't break your leg."
The sobs of Xiaochu in the room, Mrs. Chu's cold eyes... Slowly, Mr. Chu said, "Let me tell you that next month's 16th will be a good day. The prince will marry you."
Xiaochu sat on the ground in shock and couldn't speak for a moment. Mrs. Chu was surprised to see that she was not happy, but that she couldn't suppress the fire in her heart: "What are you! Now I want to marry you in order to save my son! Who are you pretending to be innocent to? Let me tell you, don't tell me that you are not a picture! I also understand that you are a flat wife, and the prince will marry another high family in the future!"
A series of words overwhelmed Xiaochu. She only knew one thing in her heart that marrying herself could clear some of Chu Huaixian's suspicions.
The reputation of Prince Chu's obsession with the girl is solid...
Xiaochu replied with difficulty, "In order to save the prince, then I will agree." Mrs. Chu looked at her with hatred and gave a cold hum.
