Chapter 218 The ancient version of the soft rice man 3
After having breakfast at her mother Zhao Qiaorou's place, Wanyang even took a wife back to her yard from Zhao Qiaorou's place.
The mother-in-law's surname is Ma, and everyone in the house calls her Mother-in-law Ma. She was one of the two maids Zhao Qiaorou married back then.
The old man who has been with the mistress of the house for many years is a powerful figure.
What kind of maid has not been trained in all these years? Wan Yang specifically asked Zhao Qiaorou to bring him over as a 'surprise' specially prepared for Cai Lian.
The first day Madam Ma arrived at her hospital, she achieved the results she wanted.
It was noon when she came back from a shop tour with the head shopkeeper of Buzhuang.
When entering the hospital, ask Caihe, who is cleaning outside, to go to the kitchen and bring the food box over.
Wanyang took the food box, lifted the bamboo curtain and entered the house.
As soon as she entered, Mrs. Ma, who was doing needlework, quickly put down her sewing basket, stood up, snatched the food box from her hand, and said loudly: "Oh, my lady! How can you do such menial work?"
"Can't you do it? But I'm used to it on weekdays!" Wanyang blinked her innocent eyes a few times.
A beautiful face was forced to be pretended to be a simple white rabbit by Wanyang.
"How can you get used to it? Your personal maid should do these things!" Mrs. Ma accurately grasped the key point: "Miss! Where is your maid? I must explain it carefully, how can I let the lady do it?"
You’re carrying your own food box!”
"I don't know! I just came back with the big shopkeeper of Buzhuang, and I don't know where Cai Lian is..." Wanyang whispered.
Mrs. Ma was shocked when she heard this: "What? She is not with the lady?"
"That's right! She left the yard with me this morning, and then she ran off to nowhere."
Madam Ma gave her a stern look, then changed her face and said with a smile on her face: "Miss, Madam, I'll wait for you to eat first."
Mrs. Ma put the food on the table and stood aside to serve Wanyang.
Two-quarters of an hour later, Mrs. Ma put away the dishes and chopsticks, took them up and left with Wanyang.
When Mrs. Ma came back, she had a long ruler in her hand and two strong boys with her, standing at the door of the yard waiting to pick lotuses.
Normally, Cai Lian didn't follow her original owner very much. She had a hobby, that is, she liked to bet small amounts of money with some bad servants in the house.
Whenever the original owner went to study with the gentlemen, she would go to those people.
When Cai Lian saw Mrs. Ma in the morning, she wanted to restrain herself.
But she was persuaded to give up by Wanyang's words of "deep sisterly love", and Wanyang repeatedly told her that she would definitely look for her first when she came back.
In the afternoon, there was a muffled sound coming from the yard.
Wanyang didn't hear anything going on outside the window. After all, at this hour, as a young lady, she was still taking a nap.
Until I got up in the evening and took a look at Cai Lian kneeling in the yard.
I saw her arms holding a wooden basin filled with water on top of her head.
My knees were shaking all over because I had been kneeling for too long. My frail body and pitiful appearance were really pitiful.
Tsk tsk~ Does she feel pain? But in the previous life, when the original owner lost his child, it was more painful than hers.
What a pity! It’s spring and summer now, if it were late winter, it would be even more exciting!
Wanyang pretended to be deaf and mute and did not ask Mrs. Ma about picking lotus.
She should eat and sleep when she should, but it didn't affect her mood at all. She even ate two extra bowls of food for dinner.
Late at night, Wanyang put on her clothes and came to the yard softly. Cai Lian had already collapsed on the ground due to exhaustion.
She pulled out a silver hairpin from Cai Lian's head and stabbed it into her thigh.
Cai Lian, who was unconscious on the ground, reacted because of the stinging pain in her thigh.
Wanyang, who had a cold face at first, suddenly turned into a sad look.
After a few moans, Cai Lian raised her eyelids and saw Wanyang squatting next to her in the moonlight.
"Miss……"
"Cailian, please stop talking. I'm sorry! It's all my fault that I forgot to look for you, so I let you suffer such physical pain." Wanyang spoke with a trembling voice, as if she wanted to cry.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...Miss, why don't you save me?" The pain in her body and the grievance she felt made her burst into tears.
It’s a joke! If Wanyang hadn’t been so good at acting, I would have laughed uncontrollably.
Save her? How did she do it and be able to speak so confidently? Was it based on her lifelong contract?
"Cailian, run away! Mrs. Ma has found out about your gambling today, and she has already reported it to your mother, I...I..." Wanyang pretended to swallow more.
The Lin family has rules for their servants. Anyone who gambles will be beaten with a stick and then sold to the land of Fireworks and Willow Alley.
Cai Lian knew this rule, and when she heard what Wanyang said, she could not help but tremble all over. She didn't want to bear the pain of being beaten with random sticks, and was very tempted by Wanyang's proposal, but...
"Miss! Where should I run? Besides! I don't have any money! I will starve to death if I run out!"
They are already in such a state of affairs, and they are still playing tricks, Wanyang thought disdainfully.
"It doesn't matter, I have it here, I'll get it for you!"
"Thank you, miss. I will repay you by picking lotus in the next life!"
Wanyang didn't reply to her anymore, she stood up and walked into the house with such a coy look, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to help but beat her!
Returning to the house, he collected the money and some valuable jewelry stored by the original owner into a bag, carried it out, and threw it into the arms of Cai Lian, who had already stood up from the ground.
Not only that, she also personally sent the lotus out of the Lin Mansion. After waiting for a cup of tea, she pretended to be flustered and anxious, and ran around the house while shouting: "There is a thief in the house! There is a thief in the house."
Got it!"
Wanyang shouted all the way outside Zhao Qiaorou's yard.
There were servants on her way here, so they got up and followed her to see what was going on!
When Zhao Qiaorou's courtyard heard Wanyang's shouting, the lights were already on. Zhao Qiaorou, with her long hair hanging loose, wearing a coat, opened the door of the courtyard with several women, and asked hurriedly.
"What's wrong? Yi'er! Where is the thief?"
Wanyang cried and ran into Zhao Qiaorou's arms, sobbing as if she was frightened: "When my daughter just got up for the night, she found that her room was turned into a mess! She was startled, and she waited until she calmed down a little.
From now on, when I check the valuable things in my room, they are all gone!”
Zhao Qiaorou saw that her daughter was very frightened, so she first ordered the mother-in-law behind her: "Take the young lady to my room to rest."
"Mr. Ma, follow me to the lady's yard to have a look."
Madam Ma: "Yes!"
Zhao Qiaorou saw that her daughter was being escorted back to the room, and then she took Mrs. Ma away!
Wanyang was served by several women, lay on Zhao Qiaorou's bed, and soon fell asleep.
As Wanyang expected, Zhao Qiaorou and Madam Ma quickly guessed Cai Lian.
Cai Lian carried a bag of money and dragged her seriously injured body.
Before he could run far, he was chased back by servants sent by Zhao Qiao.
