It's almost summer and the yard is a bit stuffy. Mrs. Zeng took Shi Qingyi and sat on the steps to show her hands. The moonlight shone all over the floor, shining on the clear water of the lake in the backyard. Everything under the moonlight was extraordinarily beautiful. quiet.

Tong Shuangpin stood behind a clump of green bamboos, facing the lake, and beside her was a girl carrying a lamp. The lamp had already been extinguished, and she was gently swaying by the lake with the wind.

Through a clump of bamboo, I can see the side face of that person, thin but clean, wearing a bunt and coarse cloth clothes, the hair is soft and close to the ears, and the hands are high and swollen, which can be seen even from such a distance.

After applying the herbal medicine, Mrs. Zeng gave her a few careful instructions, nothing more than a few words not to get wet and not to press your hands at night. What can they do if they work in the mansion and are bullied by the master?

He could only grit his teeth and admit it for himself, originally he looked down on such a handsome boy, but he seemed to be willing to endure hardship and work hard this day, and being bullied by Young Master Biao, he felt a little more compassion.

Shi Qingyi withdrew her hand and covered it with her sleeve, and said sincerely, "Thank you sister-in-law."

"What are you thankful for? They are all poor people." Sister-in-law Zeng waved her hand and patted the herbal crumbs on her body, "It's getting late, you can go back and rest, I'll go see how the cooking for tomorrow is going. "

Although the two lived in the same courtyard, they were actually two firewood houses. Shi Qingyi bent over to enter her room, and looked back for some reason.

——Of course she didn't see anything. She paused and stood at the door for a while, looking a little depressed for no reason, and then closed the door.

When Shi Qingyi went in, the little girl next to Tong Shuangpin turned on the light. After a while, there was a rustling sound from the grass over there, and Mrs. Zeng came through the weeds behind.

There are a lot of rare gadgets worth thousands of dollars in stock in the mansion, and there is a night guard at night. Sister-in-law Zeng dare not go out alone at night, and walks together with others, and the sound of ouch can be heard from a distance.

"You don't know how cruel Master Biao is. The child's hands are so swollen that he can't even lift them up. I don't know if he can use them again in the future."

Sister-in-law Zeng compared her height with her hands: "It's blue and purple, I don't know if it hurts the bones, a child at such a young age, if his hands are useless in the future, how can he live..."

"Who says no, Young Master Biao is really arrogant. Let me tell you, I saw Young Master Biao and..."

Without further words, a lamp was lit in the bamboo forest, followed by a limping person. Because of his inconvenient legs, Tong Shuangpin's voice was a bit heavy when he walked, and he always dragged on the ground.

The two of them fell silent for a moment, and Tong Shuangpin let the other night watchman go first, leaving only Mrs. Zeng alone.

"How is she?" Tong Shuangpin stood by the pond, even in the night, he could vaguely see the power of the whole person, with a burst of fierceness.

She has been a housekeeper for several years, and those in the house and shop who relied on her for food did not accept her in the early years. They felt that it was unreasonable for her to be a woman who had not yet married and did not find a good marriage. I underestimated that she was too young to control things, and after being beaten by her ruthlessly, no one dared to speak out.

Sister-in-law Zeng didn't know if she heard what she just said to others, she thought about it and dared not lie, so she could only describe her injury in detail again.

What I said was really distressing and couldn't help sighing: "That child is really miserable. She had a high fever and probably burned her brain. I asked her where she was from in the past, and she said who else was in the family. I can't remember clearly, how can this helpless person go out with injuries..."

Sister-in-law Zeng took a careful look at Tong Shuangpin's expression, and gritted her teeth when she saw that she didn't seem angry, "We don't know what happened, but the child really didn't offend Master Biao, you see... can you stop kicking me?" she go?"

Tong Shuangpin lowered his eyes, and his voice could not discern his emotions: "When did I say I was going to drive her away?"

She paid a lot of money to hire someone to bring him back from the battlefield, and how could he get her back after going through a lot of relationships. She was afraid that this person would run away.

Sister-in-law Zeng suddenly felt that Boss Tong was a little strange because of so many years of experience.

Tong Shuangpin waited until Sister-in-law Zeng was gone, and Tong Shuangpin stood for a while before preparing to leave. The girl who came out with her at night was not Xiaoque, but bought from Yazi two years ago. She was loyal to her and endured halfway. He couldn't stop asking: "Miss, why did you tell Mrs. Zeng to stop talking without stopping the other, she said Young Master Biao..."

Who in the house doesn't know that Young Master Biao is not clean with others, but he has never grasped the reason, the lady doesn't care about Young Master Biao, but cares about such a pick-up in the backyard——

Although the young lady has some leg problems, she is one of the best in southern Sichuan in terms of character and appearance. There are too many men who are interested in the young lady, so why bother to hold on to such a vine as Young Master Biao?

Tong Shuangpin didn't even pause, and walked forward on his own, with no ups and downs in his mood: "What does he have to do with me?"

The voice was terribly cold, with a hint of sarcasm inexplicably, as if he didn't care at all.

The girl didn't understand why the lady didn't care about her fiancé-in-law making trouble outside at all, but she didn't dare to ask any more.

Perhaps because of the physical and mental energy consumed by the beating, Shi Qingyi slept for a longer period of time, and when she woke up, Zeng's sister-in-law had already returned, and brought her two steamed buns as usual.

When she was holding the gnaw, Mrs. Zeng leaned over mysteriously again.

"You don't know whether your luck is good or bad. You were beaten badly yesterday for no reason. Today, the steward said that you are pitiful. There happened to be some unnecessary plaster in the mansion that was about to wear out. Let me bring it for you to use."

Shi Qingyi washed her hands and put on the ointment. Sister-in-law Zeng didn't understand this, but she knew that this medicine was extremely expensive, and it was a top-notch medicine for wound healing.

That can only be someone specially brought it for her use.

"It seems that Ms. Tong still loves you, the host." The system lay on her shoulder like a transparent ball of light, looking at the steamed bun in her hand and sighing.

Where did I suffer from this before? The hosts of delicacies from mountains and seas brought it to eat all over the world, but now it's like this. It's really miserable.

Shi Qingyi breathed a sigh of relief and didn't bother to deal with the system.

"It's good to eat something."

"That's right, at least Miss Tong didn't want to starve you to death."

It really makes the listener sad and the hearer shed tears.

Shi Qingyi: "..."

She was so miserable yesterday, Tong Shuangpin didn't even look at her, she thought Tong Shuangpin really had a heart of stone.

Today, she has a handicap and can't do physical work. The steward of the backyard thought for a while and decided to arrange for her to guard the back door.

The back door of Tong's mansion is often visited by coolies, renters and food deliverers, etc. Outsiders are not familiar with Tong's mansion, so it is inevitable that they will make mistakes, so they always have to guard the back door to report.

Apart from running errands, there was nothing serious, there was a chair by the back door, she sat under a persimmon tree for a whole day, and after running back and forth for seven or eight days, she was finally able to rest.

The backyard of Tong Mansion is directly facing a mountain, although there is also a road passing through the back door, it is also a gravel road, after a hot day, there is only loneliness, the sunset silently falls into darkness, and the night spreads from the other side of the road.

"Small, why don't you go back and take a nap at this time? What are you waiting for?" A person passing by the back door called her loudly.

"What if someone else comes? I have nothing left and right, so wait."

The sisters-in-law and maids passing by made fun of her: "Look at this honest child, who else is there so late, miss, they all entered through the front door."

"Speaking of which, Miss, hasn't come back today?"

"I saw two new cars came to pick him up this morning. He is a very handsome man. I heard that he is the young owner of Changsong Silk and Satin Village. He just came back from overseas..."

All the girls who were her companions walked away, only the voice came from afar, and Shi Qingyi leaned against the wall and smiled lightly.

It was around midnight, she was drowsy, and suddenly heard the sound of brakes, Shi Qingyi suddenly opened her eyes, and saw a brand new car parked on the narrow road by the back door.

As soon as she stood up, a young man in his early twenties hurried down from the other side, and quickly opened the car door on the other side.

"Boss Tong, I'll support you."

As soon as the door was opened, there was a smell of alcohol, a little strong, like the smell of fine red wine. Tong Shuangpin was held by his arm and pressed his forehead with one hand, as if he was a little unsteady.

"It doesn't have to be..."

"You have inconvenient legs and feet, and you are drunk. How can you get in if no one is helping you? Let me help you go. Why do you have to go through the back door..."

After he said that his legs and feet were inconvenient, Tong Shuangpin's eyes turned cold, but no one noticed, just about to break free by himself, a person suddenly came over from the sideways and held her without flinching.

Shi Qingyi fended off the young man's supporting hand, neither humble nor overbearing: "The housekeeper asked me to come and pick up the young lady, please send the young lady back, I'll just take the young lady back."

The young man was stunned for a second, and before he could react, Qingyi had already said "excuse me", and then helped him into the back door.

The young man frowned, feeling that the gatekeeper was too short-sighted.

Tong Shuangpin was a little drunk, and almost leaned on Shi Qingyi's body. Her legs were really bad, and she was prone to crooked when she walked and stopped. Shi Qingyi carefully wrapped her arms around her waist, making it difficult to walk.

Suddenly stepping on a stone somewhere in the darkness, Tong Shuangpin tilted his whole body outwards, Shi Qingyi's hand couldn't use much strength, and she stepped back with a thump, the two of them leaned against each other for a while. on the wall.

Shi Qingyi didn't have any lighting around her, and she couldn't leave Tong Shuangpin to find someone, so she hugged her and said softly, "Miss Tong, don't come back so late..."

And it's a strange young man sending you home, what if I'm not here?

Tong Shuangpin leaned his head against her neck, and snorted lightly when he heard this.

Maybe it's because of drinking, maybe it's because her voice is already bad, and her voice is slightly hoarse, which makes her look extraordinarily attractive.

"You care about me?" The breath was hot on the neck, and the distance was too close, Tong Shuangpin could even see Shi Qingyi's furrowed brows, red ears, and extraordinarily violent heartbeat.

She gave a low laugh: "Are you sad?"

Shi Qingyi slightly turned her head away, it was too close, she wanted to back away, but Tong Shuangpin seemed to be really drunk and chased after her.

"That's right, I just want to see you sad, don't you have a confidante again after I leave?"

"I... I don't know what you're talking about..."
