The old lady is reborn

After thinking it over, Rong Yueqi said, "My mother's nose was broken, her forehead was bleeding, and her cheeks were horribly swollen. I beat her because of that.

But I hit him accidentally."

Wang Dongxi: "An accidental hit shouldn't have such power and accuracy, right?

It was like a deliberate shot with all my might.”

Rong Yueqi's mind raced: "When I said accidentally, I meant that I didn't know this was my mother.

I mistakenly thought there was a thief in the house, so I slammed the shovel hard. "

Wang Dongxi nodded and said deliberately: "That makes sense. Then tell us more about this thief. What happened at that time?"

Rong Yueqi began to fabricate this fictitious thief, but lies always have many loopholes, and he gradually fell into Wang Dongxi's interrogation trap.

..........

Ding Qing or Jingwei hasn't received any killing job for a long time. She is a killer. Why hasn't anyone wanted to kill anyone for so long?

Is the world at peace now, or are people just doing it themselves? How can a killer like her survive?

Forget it, making a living is important, so I might as well do something that is not worth the money.

Jingwei went to a villa in the suburbs that looked quite impressive.

While darting around on the beams of other people's houses like a secret guard, he was admiring the scenery and furnishings in the manor's villa.

It's mainly for ornaments, to see if there's anything valuable that can be stolen.

Jingwei looked at these things critically. Some of them were too big to hold in her hands, while others looked good but could not be sold at a high enough price.

Jingwei suspected that either she had not found the right place, or the family had an anti-theft strategy in place and the things displayed were not worth stealing or could not be stolen.

At this time she saw several people escorting a little girl.

Nizi's hands were tied behind her back and her mouth was blocked. She was coming towards this side.

Jingwei didn't intend to care.

She often thought of the fool who served as a bodyguard assassin for the Third Prince. He was a lowly person but he dared not forget his country's worries. He was also loyal to his heart. The Third Prince just wanted him to die...

Forget it, fools like this won't live long. I can live in peace as long as I don't mind my own business.

Although she thought so, she still followed these people and said to herself: Let's see if there are any valuable things in the place they are going.

The three men took the little girl with her hands tied behind her back to a big house.

Jingwei quietly looked at the furnishings in the room in the dark. Why were there so many torture instruments here?

Looking at the little girl, she suddenly understood what the things in this room were used for.

A bunch of damned people! Not human.

After the three men sent the girl into the room, they stepped out and stood guard outside the room.

The three people whispered to each other: "Has the guest invited by the master not arrived yet?"

"Our master is treating us to a meal with such a bland little girl?"

"You don't understand. What's so interesting about those lively banquets with many girls from brothels?

Why do those people have to come here to have fun with the girls in the brothels?

They really have fun here. Has any of the girls who provide them with pleasure ever been able to survive?

Using one's life to treat guests, is there anyone more generous than our master?"

After listening to this, Jingwei on the beam hesitated, and finally gritted her teeth. Who made her meet such a fool in her life?

This is just one time I will take care of such trivial matters. Just think of it as listening to that fool. Although I have become a killer out of necessity, I should always remember the little bit of kindness in my heart.

I hope I won’t be like that fool and risk my life for what I think is loyalty and kindness.

Jingwei returned to the room and climbed down from the beam lightly. The little girl looked at her in surprise.

Jingwei came to her and lowered her voice: "I want to save you, but I will just try.

If the situation is not right and you can't escape, I won't care about you. If I have to kill you to save myself, I will kill you.

But if you stay here, you will probably be tortured to death. If I have to kill you, I will do it quickly.

So you going or not?"

The girl nodded, paused, and nodded again.

Jingwei then reached out and tore off the cloth stuffed in her mouth, and took out a dagger to cut the rope that tied her.

She felt a little fond of the little girl's silent cooperation.

The three men were guarding the door outside the room, and there was a window on the other side of the room.

Although light can seep in, the window itself is nailed shut. The space between the beam and the roof can be used as an attic, or as a mezzanine, leading to the roof. Jingwei can use this as an entrance or exit, but for the little girl, there is only one exit, the door.

Jingwei thought quickly: Is it safer and faster to get rid of those three people, or is it safer and faster to break the window?

After taking another look at her own figure and that of the little girl, she decided to break the window.

He used the sharp dagger in his hand to cut off a horizontal beam nailed to the window, and then cut it twice more, leaving only a small piece of the nail head at both ends on the window frame.

She cut open the window screen, helped the little girl out first, and then she jumped out herself.

Now they have precious time to escape, which is as valuable as gold. Once those people find out that she has escaped, it is hard to say whether they can escape with her.

Hurry now! She pointed the direction to the girl.

After they ran for a while, Jingwei suddenly grabbed the girl and turned in another direction.

Jingwei is not a little girl. She came in through the door, so she naturally won’t go out through the door.

When Jingwei was thinking of stealing something, she walked along the wall. It didn't matter which section of the wall she walked along.

We chose this one because there is a tree next to this section of the wall, which can provide some support and cover.

Jingwei signaled the girl to climb the tree, and she threw the versatile rope hook onto the wall and hung it.

She doesn't use this, she only uses it when she encounters a higher wall or steals something big.

Thinking of this, she felt a little angry. The valuable items here were too big. How could she get them under the wall by herself?

Jingwei flew up the wall, sat on the top of the wall to watch the little girl, and also looked at the movements around from a distance.

This little girl is very nimble and has already climbed up. It is obvious that she is a naughty girl. Has she climbed up the tree to pick fruits many times?

Jingwei threw the end of the flexible rope to the girl, signaling her to keep a piece and hold on tightly with her hands clasped together, so that in case her hands slipped, there would still be a piece of rope for her hands to "slide".

After Nizi said that she had held on tight, Jingwei on the wall saw that there was chaos in the distance and seemed to have discovered that the little girl was missing.

Jingwei jumped out of the courtyard wall, like one end of a seesaw, she fell and Nizi rose.

The little girl was smart and clever. When she finally jumped over the wall, she used her hands and feet to support herself and step on the ground.

Seeing that she was hanging on the wall and didn't dare to come down, Jingwei said to her, "Come down quickly. The people inside have already discovered that you have escaped. If you don't jump down, you will be caught.

If you jump down I can catch you."

This statement was half a lie, as she did catch it, but immediately threw the person out after turning a little around.

If he caught it straight, his arms would probably be broken. The little girl is not a baby.

But if she hadn't been allowed to lose strength, the little girl wouldn't have been like this now, just falling on her butt.

The two successfully escaped. Jingwei led the little girl quickly through the streets and alleys. After making sure that no one was following them, she took her back to her home.

Or the home where her biological parents and older sisters and brothers lived before they died.

Jingwei saved people out of a moment of righteous indignation. Now she is in a bit of a dilemma.

If she were let go, she knew her abilities, which was not something Ding Qing should be able to do.

If you don't let her go back, why save her yourself?

The little girl didn't know that she was on the verge of life and death again. She just felt that this house was a mess, even messier than her brother's house.

The little girl, who couldn't stand it any longer, started to work, washing clothes, sweeping the floor, dusting, cleaning the kitchen, organizing firewood, and tidying up the yard and house.

Jingwei looked at the house and found it different: "You made it look like a new one." She looked quite disgusted.

I saw a pile of debris on the ground in the yard: "Why are these thrown here?"

The girl said, "Send these to the blacksmith shop and ask them to fix them, and then you can use them.

I will move these to the kitchen later and they will only be used as firewood."

Ding Qing smelled the fragrance again, the fragrance of cooking at home.

She looked at the girl, who was a little embarrassed: "I'm hungry, I cooked." Then she hesitated: "I'm working, can I eat now?"

Ding Qing was also hungry: "Just cooking?"

Little girl: "In the whole kitchen, besides rice, there is only a piece of bacon hanging on the beam, and some dried beans and radishes in the cupboard."

“Can’t these be used to cook?”

"No, I steamed some dried radish and bacon on top of the rice. I'll stir-fry some spicy dried beans later."

Jingwei went in and took a look: "How much meat is there? Cut half of it and fry it. I'm going to go to the blacksmith shop around the corner. Can we have dinner when I come back?"

“Yes.” The little girl’s eyes lit up when she heard about frying half a piece of meat.

Jingwei thought: If the food tastes good, I'll keep it, if it doesn't taste good, I'll kill it. Who asked her to clean the house? She almost lost her knife.

The two of them ate all the leftovers of steamed bacon with dried radish and fried bacon with dried beans, and mixed them with rice, making their bellies round.

Jingwei: "You can't go back."

"why?"

"I saved you, and you worked in my house doing laundry, cooking, and cleaning for three years."

"No wages?"

"You wish. Is paying wages considered repaying a favor? That's like hiring a long-term worker."

"It would be fine if I could provide you with meals like this every day."

"The remaining rice and meat will last for three days."

"what?!"

"Maybe five days."

"Then why did you eat half a piece of meat just now?!"

"I can eat whatever I want." If he went to another rich family, succeeded, sold the stolen goods, and received the money, it would take at least three to five days.

The little girl asked: "Is there no money at home?

Among the things you sent to the blacksmith shop for repair, there was a small cooking pot used on the small stove hole. There were two such small pots at home.

When they take those things, if they can't pay, just give them the pot, that's enough.

Among the remaining things are hoes, plowshares, and land at home? Where is the land? "

Jingwei: Is there any land at home?

Girl: "You can find out from the village head. People in Kyoto have land, most of which is in the suburbs of the capital, and they usually rent it out to others for farming.

The small family didn’t have much land, and they got along well with their tenants.

My family is like this. My parents are very frugal, but they have ten acres of land, so we can eat new rice every year.

During the busy farming season, my parents would go to the tenants’ houses to help out for a few days. The tenants also had their own land, but they just planted a bigger piece…

Can I go home to see him? Let him know I'm safe? I have a younger brother who is so clingy, it's annoying, but I miss him a little bit. "
