Maid of a wealthy family

Chapter 50
During the day, in the torment of the chrysanthemum, it slowly passed.Throughout the day, Chrysanthemum didn't eat much.Now that night is coming, she is not in the mood to sleep.Facing the yellow tung oil lamp in the cave, I was stunned for a while, and then came to the entrance of the cave restlessly.She looked at the mountains under the night, so quiet and mysterious.Although it has entered winter, it has not snowed yet, and the climate is not so cold.Although the broad-leaved trees on the mountain have lost their leaves, there are still some grasses on the ground that have not died, and are still slightly green.There is another half moon hanging in the sky, and countless twinkling stars.They spread light peacefully over the land, making the mountains seem to be in a peaceful sleep, and covered with a silver veil.In such a quiet night, Chrysanthemum suddenly felt an impulse in her heart.She can now judge Ran Longgui's actions from the noise and silence in the shed above her head.If there is a lot of shouting and shouting, it proves that he has no "business" to do and is all in the shed.If they were so quiet that there was no sound at all, it must be that they had encountered a big "business" and they were dispatched in full force.If there are some voices, it must be that only some people have gone out, and what they are doing is only a small "business".Tonight, apart from the occasional mountain wind, there was a deathly silence around them. Could it be that they all went out because they encountered a big "business"?This thought flashed across Chrysanthemum's mind.Following this judgment, "it was she who suddenly had the idea of ​​going up to see the master. Yes, why not go and see? She thought, the master must be doomed this time, maybe tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, when they get it After taking money from the old man’s family, he will let the old man die tragically. These people are really vicious! She trembled in her heart, and she became more determined to take risks. In this life, maybe this is the last time. Anyway, he treats himself better, I gave him a child before! People can't be so heartless... Thinking, Chrysanthemum didn't think about her own life and death anymore. Like a big hand pushing her, she resolutely followed Ran Longgui to deliver meals every day. The path leading to the shed above.

This is her first time out of the cave.Because she is "confinement", according to the taboo, "mother and child" cannot walk around casually.Only then did she realize that the cave was so close to the top, and it took only a small turn and more than ten ladders to get there.

When she came to the dam above, as if she had lived in the cellar for a long time, she suddenly felt how big the dam was, which made her suddenly enlightened.She couldn't help but took a deep breath.

Then, she saw a row of rough, clumsy, low and low houses built of bamboo and whole fir trees in front of her.She understood that it was called "shed".It really lives up to the name, not fake at all.

Sure enough, the "shed" stood quietly under the moonlight, like several big tombs, without a sound.She thought: "It's really gone? Then, which room is the master locked in..." Just as she was thinking, Chrysanthemum suddenly saw a man wandering out from the corner of a shed.The man held a big knife in his hand, as if on patrol.

Chrysanthemum was at a loss as to what to do, when the man suddenly spotted her, immediately raised his sword high and shouted viciously, "Who is it?"

Chrysanthemum trembled for a while, but immediately calmed down as if a god was protecting her.She knew that at this moment, she couldn't feel guilty at all.Thinking about it, she boldly faced the man's big knife, walked over without fear, and replied, "It's me."

When the man saw a young and beautiful woman walking towards him, his bones immediately seemed to be crisp.He put down the knife involuntarily, and his eyes began to show surprise and hope.Looking at the chrysanthemum with longing and other complex expressions.After a while, he couldn't move his tongue and said: "You, you are the old wife of the fifth master, right?"

As he spoke, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty.

Chrysanthemum saw that the man was about forty years old, with a beard on his face. If it wasn't for his soft-boned appearance in front of her, Chrysanthemum would definitely regard him as an evil ghost in hell.She thought for a while and replied, "Exactly!"

Then, he asked back neither humble nor overbearing: "Are you Yao Qiye?"

When the man heard this, he was flattered and said, "Yes, yes! How do you know?"

Chrysanthemum said, "I heard Fifth Master talking about you."

Then Qiye's eyes wandered on the chrysanthemum, and gradually gathered a trace of evil fire, and said greedily: "Hello, Fifth Lord, good luck!" After finishing speaking, he asked without words: "It's so late, it's so late , What are you doing, what are you doing?"

Chrysanthemum was stunned.She wanted to say to come and see the master, but she was afraid that if the seventh master didn't agree, he would be paranoid.After thinking about it, I said, "I'm here to find Fifth Master..."

The evil fire in Yao Qiye's eyes became stronger, he looked at the chrysanthemum intently and said: "Fifth Master is not here! There is a big deal tonight, and the steering handle personally took people there. I am the only one in this house." !” He began to show a lewd smile, and said the last sentence with extra emphasis.After finishing speaking, he pouted meaningfully around the shed.

Chrysanthemum listened to Yao Qiye's words and confirmed her conjecture.Her heart couldn't help beating.She didn't know why her heart was beating, but she suppressed it as much as possible and asked, "Why didn't you go, Qi Ye?"

Yao Qiye's eyes sparkled and he said, "I'm guarding the 'fat pig'!" As he spoke, he pointed to the room behind him as if trying to curry favor with Chrysanthemum, and said in a lower voice, "He's your enemy!"

Chrysanthemum's heart seemed to jump out of her chest. It turned out that the master and herself were separated by a wall.But at this moment, she didn't know what happened to him at all?He must have suffered, and must have despaired!She really wanted to go in and see him at once, and say a word of comfort to him.But at this moment, how can she persuade this man to go in and have a look?She turned her head, and was about to say something to plead with Yao Qiye, but suddenly saw Yao Qiye's eyes fixed on her body as if they were about to burn.

Chrysanthemum couldn't help being surprised.This is a man's extremely thirsty and hungry gaze, a gaze that seems to burn himself and others as well.She has received this kind of man's fiery gaze from Ran Longgui and the master more than once.Now, seeing this kind of gaze, she is no longer as flustered and distraught as she was when she was a girl.After all, she was also a woman who had had a miscarriage.That's it? These two gazes of Master Qi are like two torches illuminating Chrysanthemum's heart.She suddenly recalled the daydream of that day.Lan Hongen yelled with blood all over his body: "Chrysanthemum, save me, save me quickly—"

At this time, Chrysanthemum's heart trembled suddenly.She thought, maybe this is a hint from the Bodhisattva!Yes, tonight is such a good opportunity, why can't he be rescued from the fate of being Ran Longgui's ghost?One must have a conscience, a conscience!A human heart is made of flesh, how can I just watch him die tragically... Thinking of this, I don't know where she got her intelligence and courage, so she smiled and said to Yao Qiye: "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

This nasty address and gentle greeting surprised even herself.But she didn't feel ashamed or shy.

Sure enough, when Qi Ye heard this call, he felt as if he had been struck by an electric current, and he couldn't help shaking. After a long time, he looked at the chrysanthemum and said vaguely: "I, I, I..." He didn't say a word for a long time. Let's talk.

When Chrysanthemum saw her, she took another step closer and asked softly, "Brother, why don't you go back to see sister-in-law?"

When Yao Qiye heard this, his expression darkened immediately, and he said dejectedly: "It would be nice to have a sister-in-law! I'm not afraid of your jokes, I'm over 40, and I still don't know what a woman is like."

What Yao Qiye said was completely true.To be a bandit, one is poor and unable to marry a woman.At that time, there was a popular saying: "For a man who is thirty and not yet established, it is better to go up the mountain and enter a shed." That is to say, when a man is 30 years old and is still a bachelor, he will never want to start a family in this life.In another situation, once you become a bandit, you are afraid of dragging your family and your wife and children down, so you don't want to marry a woman anymore.Therefore, no matter which mountain top or which shed, most of them are bachelors. Usually, the rules of the "shed" are strictly set, and "picking flowers and weighing flowers" is not allowed - ruining women.These people are all strong and strong, and they are at their peak.Therefore, once they meet a woman occasionally, they can't wait to eat each other immediately.

Seeing Yao Qiye's appearance, Chrysanthemum sighed on purpose, and said, "That's right, it's so pitiful..."

Before the words were finished, Yao Qiye suddenly dropped the big knife, rushed over, hugged the chrysanthemum tightly, and kept shouting: "Kiss, kiss, I can't help it, let me try it!" ..."

Although Chrysanthemum had long been mentally prepared for this, she still couldn't help but panic.But things had come to this, so she had no choice but to force herself to calm down, and then proceeded to take the risk.While deliberately pretending to be struggling, she said in fear: "Don't, don't do this, if the fifth master comes back and meets us, we won't be able to survive..."

After hearing this, Yao Qiye hurriedly panted and said, "I, my dear, dear, don't worry, they won't, won't come back until dawn..." Then, he hurriedly went to Clothes pulling Daisy.

When Chrysanthemum saw her, she didn't struggle on purpose, she just held down Yao Qiye's hand that was pulling her eyes, and said, "Brother, if you really want to, you won't be here. I, I'm afraid..."

Yao Qiye hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?"

Chrysanthemum said, "Let's go down to the cave, it's quiet there."

Yao Qiye only wanted to accomplish good things, didn't think deeply, and immediately said: "Okay, you can go wherever you say." After finishing speaking, he half pulled and half picked up the chrysanthemum, and walked down to the hole where the chrysanthemum lived.

Chrysanthemum glanced at Guan Lan Hongen's room, and deliberately said to Yao Qiye: "Brother, are... the higher-ups at ease?"

Yao Qiye said: "My dear, dear, don't worry! There is no, no one here, and the 'fat pig' is tied, tied, and can't run away." Saying that, he walked away holding the chrysanthemum.

When he came to the cave, Master Yao Qi couldn't wait to untie his pants, but Chrysanthemum said: "Brother, you are in a panic, what are you up to?" After finishing speaking, without waiting for Master Yao Qi to answer, he said again: "Master Qi, wait a moment. Wait, I'm going out to defecate, and I'll come when I'm done."

Yao Qiye was a little impatient when he heard this, but he had no choice but to lift up his trousers and say, "Go, I'll wait."

After hearing this, Chrysanthemum hurriedly walked out, then turned her head and said, "Don't come to see me, I'm sorry! If you want to come to see me, I won't promise you!"

Yao Qiye listened, and replied obediently: "I, my dear, dear, you go, I, I won't come to see you."

Chrysanthemum walked out of the cave and ran up desperately.While running, he silently prayed in his heart: "God, do your best, don't let Yao Qiye follow. If you follow, it will be over!"

After praying, he went to the shed out of breath.Without thinking too much, she pushed open the wooden door with a "wow".

Sure enough, Lan Hongen was bound tightly to the pillar in the middle of the room.

Under the not-so-bright oil lamp, Chrysanthemum first saw the bloodstains on Lan Hongen's body, as if seen in a dream.Perhaps, he has been exhausted from torture, or completely covered by the shadow of death. He heard the footsteps of Chrysanthemum, but he did not raise his eyelids to take a look.

At that moment, the tears of Chrysanthemum burst out immediately.She really felt sorry for the man in front of her eyes!She thought, where has he suffered such a crime?Why did he suffer such misfortune?Slowly, she transferred her hatred to people like Ran Longgui, feeling that they were too ruthless, too vicious and cruel, like a man-eating devil.No wonder they were hunted down by the government.She really wanted to rush over, hug Lan Hongen in her arms, hold him in her arms like a mother holds a baby, and comfort his hurt and suffering heart with her full of love.However, she didn't have time to do that because time was too limited.She just ran to Lan Hongen's side in a hurry, and called softly: "Master——"

Lan Hongen opened his eyes suddenly when he heard the cry, and looked at the chrysanthemum as if he didn't know him.After a while, I was excited and trembling and said, "Chrysanthemum, chrysanthemum, is that you?"

Chrysanthemum said: "Master, hurry up, I'll save you." Then she went to untie the rope on Lan Hongen's back.

But Chrysanthemum didn't expect that the rope was tied in a dead knot, and she was very nervous, so she couldn't untie it for a long time.Chrysanthemum became anxious and almost cried.In the end, she bit the dead knot with her teeth and dragged desperately to untie the knot.Then, he helped Lan Hongen take off all the ropes on his body, and said urgently: "Okay, master, let's go."

Lan Hongen looked at Chrysanthemum, and said like he was still in a dream: "Chrysanthemum, you..."

Chrysanthemum pushed him hard and said, "Leave me alone, go away! They want to kill you, master, if you don't run away, you will die, master."

Lan Hongen seemed to wake up from a dream, glanced at her, and rushed out the door in a panic.

Chrysanthemum looked at his back, and said with concern: "Master, be careful."I don't know if Lan Hongen heard it or not, but he stumbled and ran away.

Only then did Chrysanthemum breathe a sigh of relief, and touched her head, there was a layer of cold sweat everywhere.

She picked up her clothes and wiped them, and then resignedly walked towards the cave.At the entrance of the cave, Chrysanthemum calmed down and panted for a while, and then she shouted in a calm and somewhat sweet tone: "Brother..."

Hearing the shout, Yao Qiye rushed out and said, "What the hell is it taking so long?"

Chrysanthemum frowned deliberately and said: "I have diarrhea, I want to get it when I stand up, but I can't when I squat down, it's so uncomfortable."

Yao Qiye heard this, so he didn't blame anything, he just pulled the chrysanthemum with his hands anxiously and said: "Come on, my dear, dear, I can wait, hurry..."

Chrysanthemum shook off his hand, lowered her head, and said in embarrassment: "Brother, I'm really sorry, I, I forgot, I'm still in confinement, I can't do, do that thing, let's talk about it later."

Yao Qiye immediately widened his eyes and called out: "You, what are you talking about?"

Chrysanthemum said pitifully: "Brother, I won't lie to you. During these days, even Fifth Master hasn't touched me! As I said, I'll give it to you later..."

Yao Qiye showed a greedy look, reached out to hug the chrysanthemum, and said, "No, I want it! I want to..."

When Chrysanthemum saw her, she suddenly lowered her face and said, "If you really want to leave me with a whole body of illnesses like this, I'll tell Fifth Master to see if he doesn't kill you."

Yao Qiye squatted on the ground like a discouraged ball, covered his face and said in pain: "I, I'm a chicken mother who picks up the chaff, and I'm so happy.

When Chrysanthemum saw her, she really felt sympathetic to this man, walked over and said comfortingly, "Don't cry, brother, everything is guaranteed. Go back, don't think about anything else."

Yao Qiye squatted down for a while, got up and left resentfully.
