The man got the money, left the place happily, and walked happily to the gambling house, probably planning to continue gambling with the money from selling his daughter.
Seeing the situation in front of her, Gu Xiyue felt quite uncomfortable. This father was really cold-blooded and ruthless.
"Thank you, Miss, for saving me. I will be Miss's maid from now on." The little girl knelt down to Gu Xiyue with a grateful face.
"It doesn't matter, you follow me back. You will have a place to live in the future, and you will no longer be without food or clothing. Just leave your father alone. He is not a good person. If he sells you, you have already repaid him.
I don’t have to worry about the gift of childbirth in the future. I really don’t know how such a person can be a father. He doesn’t even ask where you were sold to. I’m afraid he no longer regards you as his daughter.” Gu Xiyue said coldly.
snort.
The little girl bit her lip, "Dad, he only likes his younger brother."
There were also a few people passing by. Seeing Gu Xiyue's actions just now, they all praised her.
It's really rare for someone to be able to spend at least five taels of silver to buy a girl. After all, she could buy it for only two taels of silver, so she actually still lost money.
The man just now must not have told the truth. In fact, what Wanhua Tower can give is only a mere two taels of silver.
In the carriage, Pei Yu asked Chaoli in a low voice.
"Miss, won't you say something to stop me? This kind of person of unknown origin should not be brought directly into the Hou Mansion." Pei Yu frowned.
No matter how miserable the little girl in front of her was, Pei Yu still retained a trace of uncertainty. She couldn't guarantee that there would be no problems with her.
Chaoli chuckled lightly, "It doesn't matter, just keep an eye on it later."
The reason why she didn't refuse Gu Xiyue's help was not because Chaoli wanted to teach Gu Xiyue a lesson, but because it was a good thing for her to simply express her likes and dislikes like this. At least she still had the right attitude.
kind.
Fortunately, Gu Xiyue has nothing to do with Shen Lianyi now, otherwise it would still be easy for things to happen.
Here Gu Xiyue had already finished talking to the little girl, and after learning that her name was Xiaolu, she led her directly into the carriage.
"Sister-in-law, this is Xiao Lu." Gu Xiyue looked at Xiao Lu again and said, "Xiao Lu, this is my sister-in-law. Just call her Madam."
"I've met Madam." Xiao Lu saluted immediately.
Chaoli looked indifferent, "No need to be polite, you are my sister, take good care of her."
"Yes, Xiao Lu understands." Xiao Lu replied.
Gu Xiyue thought she had solved a problem, but suddenly she felt that she was not useless, and there was some joy in her brows.
"Sister-in-law, let's rest for a while. We won't start the competition until half an hour later." Gu Xiyue suggested.
"Well, then let's take a rest." Chaoli still didn't refuse.
Pei Yu and Ruoruo got out of the carriage, taking Xiao Lu with them, leaving the space inside the carriage for the sisters-in-law Chaoli and Gu Xiyue.
Xiaolu huddled up timidly outside and did not speak to Pei Yu and Ruoruo.
About half an hour later, Pei Yu and Ruoruo were also sleeping against the carriage. At this moment, Xiao Lu, who originally seemed peaceful and peaceful, moved.
She carefully looked at Pei Yu and Ruoruo beside her, and seeing that they seemed to be asleep, she secretly took out something from her arms.
It was a paper bag, something that had probably been prepared in advance.
Finding that there was no movement inside the carriage, Xiao Lu slowly moved her hand and put the paper package in her hand into the carriage.
Xiao Lu also had a guilty conscience and was trembling all the time. She was not discovered by anyone, but when she saw that neither Pei Yu nor Ruoruo responded, she became a little bolder.
Perhaps they all wanted to be quieter, so the carriage stopped in a relatively remote location. There were a few people walking around just now, but now there was not even a single person in sight.
Fortunately, this also makes it easier for Xiaolu to do things.
Little Green tremblingly took out the fire folder, lifted up a little bit of the car curtain, and lit the paper package on fire.
The smoke after the powder was ignited was very light and had no smell. There was no movement inside or outside the carriage.
"Madam, Miss?"
Xiao Lu asked rather worriedly, but there was still no movement.
Seeing this, Xiaolu breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't expect that things would go so smoothly, and she was ready to jump off the carriage carefully.
But Pei Yu and Ruoruo, one is on her left and the other is on her right. If she moves too much, she might wake them up.
Now that she has done what she is doing, the next thing has nothing to do with her.
No matter what, it is still best to leave first, otherwise you will be unable to run away if you encounter others later, which will also leave others with clues.
Just when Xiao Lu was approaching Pei Yu and was about to get out of the carriage, suddenly, Pei Yu, whose eyes were closed, opened his eyes and stared at Xiao Lu coldly.
Xiao Lu was startled, but she still felt that Pei Yu and the others might not have seen it just now.
Therefore, try to ease your overly nervous mood.
"Sister, I want to go to the toilet."
Just now she was staring at Pei Yu and Ruoruo's quietly moving hands, and the two people in the carriage were also asleep, so it was impossible for anyone to notice.
Therefore, Pei Yu must not have seen it either.
A sneer appeared on Pei Yu's lips, "Did you really go to the toilet, or did you find an opportunity to run away? This is how your master treats you, does he treat you like an abandoned son?"
After hearing Pei Yu's words, Xiao Lu's face instantly became very ugly.
It was obvious that Pei Yu had discovered what she had just done.
"You, you know? Why don't you stop me?" Xiao Lu asked.
At this moment, Ruoruo also opened her eyes.
"It's just low-quality things. Do you still want to use these things to charm us?" Ruoruo said with disdain, "I can't even get rid of such things, because they are so inferior that it is too embarrassing."
"Are you all okay?" Xiao Lu was shocked.
After seeing that Pei Yu and Ruoruo hadn't fainted, Xiao Lu just wanted to run away.
If nothing else, after the powder is ignited, people will be infected whether inside or outside the carriage, but it has no smell and cannot detect anything.
But Xiao Lu never thought that she had prepared the antidote in advance and inhaled it herself, seeing that everyone inside and outside the carriage must have been infected.
Who would have thought that the two maids outside were both fine.
Ruoruo looked disdainful, "Of course it's okay. I didn't tell you that this little thing is nothing."
"Who's there?" Xiao Lu asked.
Ruoruo lifted the car curtain, revealing Chaoli and Gu Xiyue inside. Gu Xiyue closed her eyes, as if she had been drugged.
In other words, the medicine Xiao Lu just administered only made Gu Xiyue suffer in the end.
Speechless, extremely speechless.
Most of them have been punctured, and Xiao Lu also had some broken jars.
"I didn't expect you to be prepared for it. When did you realize something was wrong with me?"
