107 Screams pierce the night sky(1/2)
"See a fact clearly?" Yuan Lang didn't know why, "What fact?"
Xue Chao picked up the corner of his mouth and sarcastically said, "You are still from Chengdesi. You can't even figure out this. It's strange that you're still a bad guy after so many days."
Yuan Lang's face turned dark, but he did not attack, and said, "I would like to ask Mr. Xue to give me some advice."
Xue Chao's face finally became more serious: "I ask you, do you know who led the Yingxi Rebellion?"
When Meng Jiusi asked, she looked at Xue Chao seriously.
Yuan Hen replied: "Of course it was caused by Li Yuantong's collusion with Douyun Village to resurrect the rebellion." He paused and said, "Also, if it weren't for the murderers who killed that day, which triggered the Imperial College tragedy, these rebels might not have found such an opportunity."
After hearing this, Xue Chao secretly twitched the corner of his mouth, avoiding the seriousness and said lightly: "The tragedy of Imperial College is just an introduction. Without this tragedy, they will also seek other opportunities to attack because..." He looked at Meng Jiusi, "Some people don't want General Meng to return to Changping."
"who?"
Meng Jiusi almost spoke in unison with Yuan Lang.
Xue Chao sneered, without saying anything, and wrote two words on the table with his index finger. Yuan Lang looked at it and showed an incredible expression and immediately said, "Impossible!"
Not only Yuan Lang, but also Meng Jiusi was shocked again. It was reasonable to think about it after being shocked.
But he... knows? Or is he already involved?
Just as he was thinking, Xue Chao sneered again: "You will know the truth soon."
Yuan Lang suddenly said with a blank expression: "Why do you want to tell me this? What is the purpose?"
Xue Chao said lightly: "I just want to find out the facts, and..." He felt a little unsustainable when he said this, and gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "Give General Meng a truth."
Meng Jiusi was shocked: "Why did you do this?"
In her memory, after she elopes in her previous life, the Xue Meng family had long lost contact. Because the elopement caused a lot of storm in the city, not only shy the Meng family, but also the Xue family's face was not good-looking. Dad wanted to explain, Duke Xue wanted to hear, and Princess Huayang didn't let him.
In this life, she retired from the Xue family and the two families have nothing to do with each other. What reason does Xue Chao have to give his father a truth?
Xue Chao looked at her, his eyes darkened. He wanted to make up a lie to lie to her. After thinking about it, he gave up and said, "I have my own reasons."
At this time, Yuan Lang took over and said, "Is it because General Meng saved your father? As a son, it is understandable to do this."
“…”
Xue Chao didn't know whether to laugh or what to do.
This Yuan Lang is really "concerned" and even found a reason for him.
Is he acknowledging or not?
Just as he was thinking, Yuan Lang changed his mind and said, "But you shouldn't involve Dai Dai, it's very dangerous."
“…”
OK, Yuan Lang is so considerate that he just said another sentence, and he didn't even have to worry about whether he recognized it or not.
He seemed to smile bitterly, looked at Meng Jiusi and said, "If she can't even withstand this danger, then what will she use to face the storm in the future?"
Yuan Lang wanted to say something else, but Xue Chao directly issued an order to expel guests: "You stay here for too long, it's time to leave!"
"Yes, Brother Yuan, this is easy to arouse doubts."
Yuan Lang thought for a moment and said, "Okay!"
After Yuan Lang left, the room became quiet again. Xue Chao looked at Meng Jiusi's swollen face, and without saying a word, he got up and returned to the bed, picked up the wine gourd and drank two sips of wine before going to bed.
After a while, Meng Jiusi heard his shallow and quiet breathing. She looked in his direction, sighed in her heart, walked over, picked up the brocade mattress and gently covered him, sat back on the table, and was stunned at the candle for a while. She stood up and walked outside the house in boredom.
There is no moon or a star in the dark night, so deep and sank, so deep that it makes people breathe. Only when they see big red lanterns floating in the wind like ghost fires in front of the houses.
Meng Jiusi looked at the second head of the house. Light in the room shone through the window, and she pricked up her ears and listened. She could not hear anything except the sound of the wind, and she didn't know how Tieniu was doing.
Thinking of it, she looked at Yingxi again, and was even more worried. She didn't know when she would see her father.
Suddenly, she heard a scream piercing through the sky in the night. She was shocked and screamed inwardly: "No, it's Tie Niu."
She didn't care about anything, and didn't even have time to go back to call Xue Chao. She ran towards the second head of the house in a frightened manner.
She saw that the two rooms were not far away, but when she ran, she seemed to be very far away. She was not familiar with the road here. She suddenly tripped under her feet and fell forward. She happened to run away from the corner of the road and ran into her arms.
Meng Jiusi was hit and took two steps back and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, at the last moment, she still stabilized herself and felt that her nose was hit hard.
Before she could speak, the man covered his forehead and squirted with alcohol. He said angrily: "Who is an immoral ghost, dare to hit you, Master Tie!"
When Meng Jiusi heard this voice, she was confused and happy. She was afraid that she would run away, so she walked over and grabbed her: "Tie Niu, it's me."
"Ah!" Tieniu heard Meng Jiusi's voice and realized that she had scolded the wrong person. She hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, Sister Meng, I don't know it's you."
As he said that, he opened his eyes wide in the dark night and looked at Meng Jiusi's face, his eyes flashed with bright water, "Sister Meng, where did you hit you? Did it hurt? I'll just touch you."
Meng Jiusi rubbed her painful nose and smelled strong alcohol everywhere in her mouth and body. He asked quickly: "I'm fine, what about you, are you okay?"
Tieniu rubbed her forehead and smiled: "I am a man who is not aware of anything. By the way, Sister Meng, why did you come here?"
Meng Jiusi remembered what had just heard the scream. She grabbed Tieniu's arm, looked up and down, left and right, and said, "I just heard you screaming, thinking that something had happened to you, so she ran out to find you."
Seeing that she cared about her so much, Tieniu ran out at night without regard for her own safety. A warm current suddenly surged in her heart. She grabbed Meng Jiusi's hand. When she spoke, her voice was slightly drunk and choked: "Sister Meng, I'm fine, I'm acting."
"acting?"
"Yeah, let's talk about it when you go back."
After a while, the two returned to the house. Seeing Xue Chao still sleeping, they were afraid of disturbing him, so they sat down to the west room together.
There are three rooms in total, each of which is not big, but it is clean and neatly packed. There is a bed, a table and two stools in the west room, and an exquisite dressing table. This was specially prepared by Fan Jianglong for Tie Niu.
Meng Jiusiyou was not relieved, so she lit a candle and took a photo at Tien Niu. Under the slight light, her face was filled with red clouds that were as beautiful as peach blossoms, and her red lips were like flowers blooming on the branches of the spring. She was so beautiful that she looked like a pair of apricot eyes, and the waves were flowing.
When she smiled, she looked like a bright crescent moon reflected in the water. In addition to being beautiful and agile, she added a different charm. She only knew that Tien Niusheng was so cute, but she did not expect that she could look so beautiful.
Suddenly, Tieniu looked at her and smiled: "Sister Meng, why are you staring at me and watching? Could it be that a flower blooms on my face?"
Meng Jiusi sighed helplessly: "I want to see if you are fine and if you are injured."
She laughed again: "Sister Meng, I have told you everything, I'm fine."
Seeing that she was really fine, Meng Jiusi felt relieved. She turned around and asked for a cup of tea and handed it to her: "Hurry up, drink some tea to relieve the wine."
She pouted her mouth and acted coquettishly in the alcoholic spirit, "No, Sister Meng feeds me, I will drink it."
"You girl."
Meng Jiusi looked at her pamperedly and helplessly, picked up the tea and fed it to her mouth. Tieniu opened her mouth and took a sip with a smile.
After drinking the water, Tieniu said again: "Not enough, I still want Sister Meng to feed me."
Meng Jiusi was very patient and poured tea, saying, "You are a girl's house. You should not take risks again in the future, and you should not drink so much wine."
Tieniu nodded well and said, "My sister Meng will do whatever she says."
Meng Jiusi held the tea and reached out and gently pinched her perky nose: "You said it nicely now, but you will be disobedient again. Do you know that I was so anxious that I was just waiting here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tieniu's face was like a child's face. Suddenly she started crying, stopped drinking tea, and lay on the table to continue crying.
Meng Jiusi quickly put down the tea, reached out and patted her shoulders that were trembling with tears, and asked anxiously: "Tie Niu, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying?"
She was indeed a little drunk, but she was still quite awake and suddenly became sad. Could it be that she was bullied at the second in commander?
Thinking of this, she suddenly felt shocked and in pain.
Tie Niu just cried but didn't speak.
Meng Jiusi became even more anxious: "Tie Niu, tell me if the damn second leader bullies you? Tell me, tell me quickly, I want to...I want to kill him!"
"Woo woo... Sister Meng..."
Tieniu suddenly threw herself into her arms, and hugged her tightly with her small bracelet.
"For so many years, I have never been so kind to me. Sister Meng, it would be great if you were really my own sister."
In an instant, something seemed to hit her heart. She was so painful and pitiful, and felt moved. She reached out and stroked her hair softly: "Silly sister, I only treat you as my own sister."
How lacking in love is this child! She didn't do anything, she just fed her a bowl of tea after drinking wine. She was so moved that she suddenly felt that she was so dereliction of duty.
"Really?" She raised her head and looked at her with tears in her eyes. "Sister Meng, are you saying true?"
"Yes." Meng Jiusi nodded solemnly and said, "But you have to promise me that you will not drink so much wine in the future, let alone have so much wine with a stranger."
"I promise, I promise you everything."
Tieniu burst into laughter, and a bubble popped out of her nose that made her laugh, and instantly it exploded. Meng Jiusi couldn't help laughing. Tieniu herself couldn't help laughing, and raised her hand to wipe it off with her sleeve. Meng Jiusi held her hand, took a handkerchief and wiped her nose. Then she turned around and made a basin of warm water to wash her face.
Just after washing his face, Tieniu suddenly took out a stack of silver notes from her chest and came out. She stood up and stuffed it into Meng Jiusi's hand generously: "Sister, you have collected the money for me."
Looking at the thick silver notes, I noticed that there were many, and I felt a little embarrassed: "This..."
"You think I am a real sister. Do you not even want to keep the money for me?"
"Then... OK!" Meng Jiusi stopped refusing and counted, and it was 500 taels. She looked at her in surprise, "Why did so much money come from?"
"I won the bet with that idiot." As she said that, she suddenly covered her mouth and chuckled, "Tomorrow morning, that idiot will definitely make a big embarrassment."
Meng Jiusi said curiously: "How can you make a fool of yourself?"
Tieniu smiled and leaned against her ear, and said this. Meng Jiusi also laughed and reached out to pinch the tip of her nose: "You are so arrogant, you can think of it." After a pause, he asked again, "Then why did you scream so badly just now?"
Tie Niu slapped her head suddenly and said, "I almost forgot about the serious business."
