Chapter 139: Haunted
Sighing softly, Concubine Liao opened her eyes: Time flies so fast, so many years have passed in the blink of an eye. If that child grows up, he should be as old as that cheap maid's daughter, no, more than the same size?
They both have the same birthday.
"Nie Zhan. If you survive, you will definitely be an enemy who came for revenge. Fortunately, you are dead. It would be better if you die. It will be over once and for all."
Concubine Liao murmured to herself. Since it was time to rest, there was only one lamp left in the room. The solitary candlelight swayed the large room into a somewhat eerie atmosphere.
Concubine Liao frowned and was about to curse. Where are all the people? Why don't you come to serve her? Then she remembered that she had just kicked the girl out, so she had to get up and go over to extinguish the candle, turned around and got into bed in the dark.
The quilt was already warmed by Mrs. Tang. Concubine Liao breathed out a sigh of contentment and closed her eyes.
Everything was quiet, but Mrs. Liao, who usually never suffered from insomnia, couldn't fall asleep at this moment. She tossed and turned for a while, and her mind was still in a mess.
Lu Ye's words are still in her ears: "My dearest concubine, the Sixth Young Master is already a little dazed. In a few days, even if he and the Fourth Miss do not become fools, they will definitely not be as smart as before. Speaking of which, I will serve the Sixth Young Master."
The young master and the fourth girl cannot bear to do anything these days, but the concubine, you are the master of this house and the real master of this servant. The result you want, I will go up to the mountain of swords and the sea of fire, and I will risk my life to achieve it.
.”
Concubine Liao opened her eyes and sat up irritably. She felt a faint pain in her temples on both sides. She rubbed them gently with her hands and said to herself: Don't blame me for being cruel. If you want to blame me, just blame you for not being able to reincarnate. Why did you choose to live in Xin's family?
In the belly? If you were Jiaru’s children, how could I, as a grandmother, instigate others to harm you before it was too late to hurt you?
Yin shied away for a while, comforted herself for a while, and then thought that after the matter was completed, Lu Ye would never leave her life, but she had to think of a way to make her accident disappear, in short, it would not arouse people's suspicion...
I don't know if she was so absorbed in thinking that she had hallucinations, but Concubine Liao suddenly heard a sound of "Card" laughter coming from outside the window.
"Who's there?"
She was startled, and suddenly turned her head to look at the window. She saw the moonlight was like water, and there was no one there?
Could it be that he was in a trance while sleeping?
Concubine Liao turned back in confusion, but at that moment, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a shadow on the window paper from the corner of her eye that had not yet been withdrawn.
"Who is it?"
Concubine Liao's heart was in her throat, she beat the bed and shouted loudly: "Come here, come here."
"Mother Dowager."
The two girls on night duty in the outer room, Qiuyue Qiuxiang, hurried in and saw their master pointing at the window and saying sternly: "Go and see, who is causing trouble outside?"
"Ah? Outside?"
Qiuyue Qiuxiang looked at each other: "Ms. Princess, there should be no one outside..."
Before she could finish speaking, Concubine Liao said angrily: "I asked you to go and have a look. Don't be lazy. Go and have a look."
"yes."
The two had no choice but to put on their clothes and go to the yard. They called the mother-in-law who was on night duty. The three of them walked around cautiously and found nothing. Then they breathed a sigh of relief and quickly went into the house to report to Concubine Liao.
"Well, maybe I'm dreaming."
Concubine Liao nodded and was about to let the girls go to sleep. Suddenly her heart moved and she changed her words to: "Qiuyue, you stay here, and Qiuxiang will come in later in the night."
"yes."
Qiuyue didn't know why, so she had to agree. She took a look and was about to put a mat on the floor beside the bed when she suddenly heard Mrs. Liao say: "That's it, I don't need you. It's just some pretense."
"Oh...okay."
Qiuyue Qiuxiang was simply baffled, but thinking that the master was probably having a nightmare, it made sense to be so capricious, so he helped Mrs. Liao lie down, checked the window again, blew out the candle, and then went back to the outer room to separate.
Rest.
Concubine Liao closed her eyes here and thought to herself: This is just the beginning, why can't you calm down? Changting is a smart man. If I make trouble here, there is no guarantee that he will not suspect me in the future. Once I am caught,
He learned that even if he, the son, could not do anything to me, there would definitely be a rift between mother and son by then. No, I have to calm down. In the backyard of this rich and wealthy family, who doesn't have a few unjust ghosts...
As soon as she thought of this, she heard another sound of laughter outside the window, and then the laughter started again. In this silent night, it sounded particularly eerie and terrifying.
Concubine Liao sat up suddenly. She didn't know if she felt guilty, but she felt she could hear a bit of resentment in the laughter.
"Who's pretending to be a fool?"
Concubine Liao gave a loud shout. Qiuyue was still asleep outside the house. After hearing this, she hurried in and lit the lamp while asking urgently: "Concubine, what's wrong?"
"Didn't you hear the sound just now? Quick, go to the window and see, someone is there."
Concubine Liao was sitting on the bed hugging the quilt with a stern look on her face. Qiuyue was shocked and confused, but she didn't dare to ask, so she had to go to the window, open it and look out.
"Kekekekeke..."
A string of weak laughter sounded, which seemed particularly terrifying in this silent night. They both heard goosebumps on the skin of Concubine Liao and Qiuyue. Concubine Liao shouted from the bed: "Look who is playing tricks there."
"It's...who is it?"
Qiuyue was so frightened that her legs were weak, but how could she dare not obey her master's orders? Because she had the courage to shout, she saw a small white shadow flash past among the flowers and trees, and then softly said: "Mother
, I’ll come back tomorrow night.”
Qiuyue was so frightened that she screamed "Oh my God" and stepped back a few steps before holding on to the piano table and standing still. She said in panic: "Mother, Princess, there is... someone, no... not a human, that... that
It’s obviously a… a…”
"What is it? Tell me quickly."
Qiuxiang also ran in from outside, Qiuyue's teeth were trembling, and she murmured: "It's a ghost, I can see it clearly, that...it's a ghost, a little ghost, a white ball, as big as a cat."
"Don't talk nonsense, what kind of kid is there?" Qiuxiang was frightened by what she said. She quickly stopped, then swallowed her saliva and asked in a low voice: "Then... can you see that thing clearly? What does it look like?"
Qiuyue shook her head: "I just saw a white shadow, but I couldn't see its face clearly, but the voice was really real. Qiuxiang, did you hear it?"
"I heard it, it's a little strange." Qiuxiang looked at Concubine Liao and said hesitantly: "I can hear the voice clearly, but... I also feel that the breath is a little lacking. Isn't it just a cat? Or maybe it's a night owl, that's what it sounds like.
Human voice."
