Chapter 31 The Big Mouse
Of course Jiang Liu was not hurt. She stretched out her hand to wrap her breastfeeding neck, "Thirsty."
"It's all my fault. I didn't hear the girl get up." Zhao Qingling blamed herself and shouted, "Shuqiu, go get water."
Shuqiu, who rolled up his sleeves and was washing clothes outside, responded quickly and ran out.
Seeing that the girl was not injured, Zhao Qingling put on her clothes and used a broom to clean the broken pottery on the ground. "The day after tomorrow, the old lady celebrated her birthday. There was no firewood and water in the kitchen in our courtyard today. Please bear it. Shuqiu ran quickly and would come back in a while."
The elders' birthday is a big deal at home. The Jiang family's shortage of people gathered in the north courtyard or kitchen to do things. Zhao Qingling was a clean person. The girl went up the mountain for three months. After she came back, she replaced the bedding curtains in the room and took advantage of the sun to clean and dry it.
Seeing the wet nurse rolling up her sleeves and a cloth towel tied around her head, Jiang Liu knew that she was busy in the yard, so how could she blame her?
After putting on the small embroidered shoes and going to the ground, Jiang Liu threw the small cloth tiger placed on the bedside while the wet nurse was not paying attention, and then kicked it under the bed.
Before she could call her nurse to help her find her, the cloth tiger actually rolled out from under the bed and returned to her feet. Jiang Liu stared at the cloth tiger at her feet and kicked it in again, and then the cloth tiger rolled out again!
There must be someone below! Jiang Liu slowly puffed up his cheeks. Not only were there people, but this person also treated her as a child!
Jiang Liu continued to play with the doll with her feet. When Shuqiu panted and brought a pot of hot water back, Jiang Liu took a few sips of warm water, looked at Shuqiu, and then said with his mouth: "Ya Yin."
After Jiang Liu returned to the mansion, Ya Yin was still left in the mansion by the second master to guard Jiang Liu. However, the place where he was working now was no longer at the door of Jiang Liu's room, but in the front yard.
Shuqiu thought the girl wanted Ya Yin to take them out for fun, so she ran out happily to find someone. Zhao Qingling was busy slapping the soil on the cloth tiger's body, not paying attention to their little movements.
Ya Yin was soon called by Shuqiu and bowed to the door of the boudoir, asking, "What are the instructions for the girl?"
When did the girl call him? Zhao Qingling turned to look at Xiao Jiangliu in surprise.
When Ya Yin came, Jiang Liu felt at ease. She raised the fat man's finger under the bed, "Old-Rat."
He asked him to catch the mouse? Ya Yin didn't know what to say for a moment, but he felt that his slaughter knife had been reduced several times and turned into a hammer.
There are rats in the room. If the girl is scared or bites the bedding, it is a big deal. Zhao Qingling immediately picked up Jiang Liu, "Shuqiu scouts you guys, help you Uncle Chou catch the mouse!"
Shuqiu immediately raised the broom, and Ya Yin rolled up his sleeves and walked in, threw a stone under the bed, preparing to catch a mouse.
Seeing that Ya Yin threw three stones without moving, Zhao Qingling breathed a sigh of relief, "Maybe he ran away."
There were no mice, but there was a big guy! Ya Yin stood far away and saw a corner of his clothes shrinking hard under the bed. He instantly changed from a stick to a slaughter! He gestured to Zhao Qingling with his eyes to see something under the bed, and asked her to hold Jiang Liu and retreat aside, but said casually, "Maybe he ran away. I'll go to the front yard to catch a cat, and keep it in this room for two days, right?"
"Hold me clean and honest, don't let the cat hurt the girl." Zhao Qingling alertly hugged Jiang Liu and walked behind Ya's invisibility, and even greeted her stupid daughter, "Shuqiu goes with your Uncle Ya."
Shuqiu was happy when she heard about raising a cat. "There is a mistress in the needle and thread room, which looks so beautiful!"
"Okay." Jiang Liu responded in her mouth and stared at the bed.
Ya Yin took the broom from Shuqiu's hand and walked to the point where he stabbed the broomstick hard. A "Oao" scream came from under the bed, which didn't sound like a human could make.
"Mom! This rat can still scream!" Shu Qiu jumped high in fear.
Zhao Qingling hugged Jiang Liu tightly and shouted loudly, "What's it?"
What can be found in the blue sky and the sun? Ya Yin knocked on the ground in front of the bed with a broom and threatened him sternly, "Get out! Otherwise-"
"Don't beat me, don't beat me, I'll come out, come out..." As the begging for mercy, a servant in a dark brown cloth skirt crawled out from under the bed.
Jiang Liu recognized at a glance that this man was the only remaining sturdy and solid woman in the West Courtyard.
Zhao Qingling lowered her face, "Wang Tian's family, have you gone to the North Courtyard to help? Why did you run to the girl's room and hide under the bed?"
Wang Tian's wife covered her waist with pain in her heart, bowed to Jiang Liu, and gestured, "I came back from chopping firewood in the North Courtyard. She saw such a big rat crawling into the girl's room. She came in to catch the rat because she was afraid of scaring her. Unexpectedly, she fell asleep under the bed because she was tired of chopping firewood. Please forgive me for your sins."
Do you think she is a fool? Jiang Liu held her little face tightly and hugged the wet nurse's neck, "Dad-Dad."
Zhao Qingling nodded and discussed with Ya Yin, "Tie her up and block her mouth, and wait for the second master to come back and leave her with her?"
Wang Tian’s wife kowtowed repeatedly, “It’s unfair, I really came in to catch mice, I’m wronged—”
Ya Yin stepped forward and raised her hand to remove her chin. Then he quickly tied the person up, and then asked Zhao Qingling, "Where are you escorting?"
Zhao Qingling had never seen such a straightforward work before, so she was stunned and said, "Let it be in the woodshed first, please guard the door, and don't let anyone in before the second master comes back."
Jaune grabbed the rope with one hand and took Wang Tian’s wife out like a chicken. Wang Tian’s wife, who was just noisy and troublesome, was now like a tied hairy crab.
The three people in the room were staring straight.
Such talents must be kept! Jiang Liu clenched his fists, "Miss-Mom!"
Zhao Qingling nodded immediately, "When the second master comes back, I will ask Ya Yin for rewards and ask the second master to increase his monthly money! The girl tells me how you discovered Wang Tian’s wife. Don’t worry, just talk slowly."
Jiang Liu didn't mention the money box, but just woke her up word by word and heard a noise under the bed. She was so scared that she touched the kettle. Then the little cloth tiger fell under the bed and the doll was pushed out twice.
Shuqiu widened her eyes, "She lied to others, she didn't fall asleep at all, and she dared to kick the cloth tiger sewn by her wife for the girl!"
Jiang Liu gently patted the soil on Bu Laohu's body. This was sewn by Xiaopangya's deceased mother, and it should be kept properly.
Zhao Qingling also nodded, hugged Jiang Liu and praised, "My girl is as smart as the second master!"
Jiang stopped. Was the wet nurse praising her or hurting her? Her father didn't see how smart her, but she was not at home. He went out yesterday afternoon and hasn't come back yet!
Regarding the money box under the bed, Jiang Liu thought that he should discuss it with his sister first before deciding whether to say it or not. So Jiang Liu pretended to be afraid, "I want to - sister - sister."
Wang Tian and his wife were the second wife's companion room, so they should really talk to the third girl first. Zhao Qingling ordered Shu Qiu, "Go to Dicui Hall to invite the third girl back, and then say... the sixth girl was scared."
Before Jiang Muyan came back, her wet nurse got the news and rushed back from the North Courtyard and asked Zhao Qingling why she wanted to arrest Wang Tian’s wife.
After hearing Zhao Qingling tell the story, Wang Xiangzhi was stunned, "It should be catching mice. If not, why did she run to the Sixth Girl's room?" The Sixth Girl's room is full of children's things. What benefits can she get when she comes in?
This is also something that Zhao Qingling is puzzled by, "so we have to wait for the second master to come back to interrogate clearly."
