In this way, Ke'er rushed back to the backyard of Xianyun Building, pushed open the door, and closed it hard.
Then, she leaned her back against the door, panting.
"Huhuhu...I'm so exhausted, fufuhu..."
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Just as she was panting, there came one after another... a sound like chopping wood?
Ke'er pricked up his ears and looked around to follow the source of the sound, and found...it seemed to be coming from the woodshed behind the house!
Susu?!
Ke'er was startled and had a vague premonition in her heart. She had no time to think about anything and ran straight to the woodshed behind the house.
When she saw that Su Mei was wearing old clothes and was wielding an ax, chopping wood one by one. There were already some chopped wood at his feet, and more wood was piled on the other side.
chopped wood...
Look at him again, his face is covered with beads of sweat, his long snow-white hair is casually tied with a rag, and the hair on his temples is slightly soaked with sweat, but he is getting better.
The scars were slightly cracked, and blood came out!
Seeing him chopping wood silently, one after another, like a cow that just knew how to work without knowing anything, she felt depressed.
Unable to hold back her depression any longer, she rushed over and shouted - "Susu! Stop, who asked you to do this?!"
Hearing her voice, Su Mei suddenly raised his head and saw her standing in front of him, safe and sound. His usually indifferent eyes were filled with excitement. "Master, you are back." He put down the ax and tightened his eyes.
He followed her groundlessly, and although his voice was still very light, it had a few more ups and downs.
"Don't call me Master. From now on, call me Ke'er. Also, who asked you to do this? Look at your wound opening again. You're covered in sweat. You won't feel any pain even if the wound is soaked like this."
?"
Ke'er took out the handkerchief feeling distressed and angry, feeling frustrated that he didn't know how to protect himself.
However, the action of wiping him was very gentle.
Her voice was breathy, and hearing it in his ears made him feel an indescribable warmth in his heart.
Sumei just stood there quietly, her glazed light red eyes secretly filled with a trace of attachment.
No one has ever been so kind to him, so... gentle...
Yes, gentle...
He has never known what gentleness is, let alone experienced it.
Since he can remember, his life has been about the jungle, the tenderness, kindness, and innocence of human nature... He has always despised these. In the education he received, these so-called emotions will only make people vulnerable and become
Drag to victory.
Nowadays, it seems that is not the case...
Could it be that what he knew before was not always correct?
At this moment, he began to feel confused about everything in the past.
"...Look at you, this wound is obviously almost healed, but now that it's like this, it must be very painful..."
Ke'er was wiping him and murmuring distressedly.
For a while, she didn't hear a single reply from him. She turned to look at him in confusion, only to see that he was just looking at her, very focused, and a little lost in concentration.
Without any thought, she instinctively touched her face and asked puzzledly: "Susu, what are you looking at? Is there something on my face?"
Meeting her confused gaze, two faint blushes appeared on his beautiful and enchanting white face. For the first time, he actually felt that he did not dare to look directly into someone's eyes.
He shifted his gaze awkwardly, and his cold voice was uncomfortably hoarse: "Nothing."
Then, he continued: "She didn't lie to me. She said that as long as I chop all the firewood, you will come back safely. You really came back well."
Such a nonsensical explanation made Ke'er really confused.
"She (him)? Who told you that?"
Sumei answered honestly: "The person Aunt Tao calls mother."
"What?! Madam! She actually knows you are here?!" Ke'er screamed in shock.
Then, a fire lit up in her chest.
"She went too far! She actually tricked you into doing work like this!"
"Uh-huh! No matter how extreme I am, I will never hide people secretly in other people's houses, eat and drink from other people's houses, live in other people's houses, and say bad things about others behind their backs so shamelessly like you!"
The madam's sharp and harsh words came from behind her.
Ke'er suddenly turned around and saw the madam walking over with her waist twisted and swaying, with several thick thugs behind her, coming menacingly.
Walking in front of her, the madam first glanced at her with his eyes above the ground, and then shifted his gaze to Su Mei. When his eyes touched Su Mei's charming and beautiful face, his eyes were ambiguous and treacherous. .
Then, she looked at Ke'er with disdain and her attitude was very arrogant - "He is quite beautiful, but it's a pity that he is not a woman. Otherwise, I would not just let him chop wood here, hum! You poor scholar It's quite bold. You can just live and feed yourself, but you still bring a torrent, and you're a fool. I'm showing great tolerance if I don't kick you all out!"
Hearing her unpleasant and contemptuous words, Ke'er clenched her fingers in anger.
"Please speak with respect, Su Su is not a fool!"
Then, she took a deep breath, and then made a decision: "I will work hard in the future, and his room and board will be deducted from my wages, but you are not allowed to trick him into doing these menial jobs again. Didn't you see Is he injured? Does he have any conscience?"
"Conscience? Boy, wait until you can support yourself before you talk to me about your conscience!" The madam sneered contemptuously, looking like a ruthless businessman.
Ke'er pursed her lips tightly, feeling angry but also more aware of her current situation.
She didn't have much money on her, and Su Mei's injury hadn't healed yet, so she couldn't act on her own initiative.
Secretly gritting her teeth, she worked hard to bring out the spirit of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
Seeing that she dared to be angry but dared not speak, the old bustard sneered arrogantly again, and then turned to Sumei and said sternly: "Hurry up and chop the firewood. If you don't chop it well, you won't have to stay here any longer tonight!"
"You..." Ke'er was so angry that she wanted to go crazy.
But the madam interrupted angrily: "What am I? You provoked the rich daughter of Caizhou Mansion and caused such a big mistake. I haven't even settled the accounts with you yet!"
"Her? Caizhou Mansion? They can't protect themselves at the moment! I'm not afraid of them!" Ke'er blurted out since she was angry with the old madam's repeated contemptuous and arrogant attitude.
The madam's eyes flashed secretly.
When this boy was captured by Miss Cai before, he said that Miss Cai had offended King Tenglong. Is it true?
Is Tenglong King really here?
The eyes were shining brightly, and the madam paused secretly, thinking about how to continue to trick her.
Just when she thought she had concealed her scheming very well, she didn't see Sumei, who had been standing silently behind Ke'er, looking at her coldly. Under her indifferent eyes, there was clearly something elite.
For a moment, the madam continued to pretend to be disdainful on the surface: "Hey! You think you can scare Caizhou Mansion by fabricating a lie with just a few words. They eat more salt than you eat rice.
, after your lies are exposed, can you come back safely again?"
"I didn't lie, it was obviously..." Ke'er opened her mouth to defend herself, but Su Mei secretly grabbed the corner of her clothes.
"Don't say it, she is trying to find out what you are saying." Su Mei leaned slightly closer to her without leaving any trace, and conveyed a reminder in her ears.
What Ke'er didn't see was that Su Mei didn't speak at all. He used a whisper with advanced magic skills, so others didn't know that he had given her tips, let alone that he actually had special skills, and she herself
I just thought that Su Mei came closer to remind her in a low voice.
After Su Mei's reminder, Ke'er immediately woke up from being so angry that she was dizzy.
Her almond-shaped eyes narrowed, and she realized the urgency in the madam's eyes.
Huh! I really want to know if Tenglong King Ao Chenye is really here!
Do you want to go and flatter Aochen Ye?
She won't give this heartless old woman a chance!
Suddenly, an idea flashed in her mind, she smiled brightly, shrugged, and said with a sly smile - "Then wait until they expose my lie. Anyway, there is still the treasure of Xianyunlou, the store's treasure mother."
Are you holding on? Then Caizhou Mansion warned me and told me to stay here obediently. He would come to me after finding out the truth. He also said that if he couldn't catch me and bring me back to court, he would
Demolish the entire Xianyun Building!"
At this time, the madam's momentum was really choked.
She stared at Ke'er with wide eyes, gritted her teeth and said, "So, you...you really lied to them?"
"I don't know. That person said he was the Tenglong King. How dare I, a little commoner, dare to guess casually." Ke'er pretended to be humble in fear.
After working on it for a long time, it turns out that this brat is not even a fart!
The madam blushed with anger and swung her sleeves: "Huh! I know you are useless, you brat!"
"Why don't you chop wood for me!" She turned to Su Mei to vent her anger.
"Hey! Why are you like this!" Ke'er was so angry that she wanted to jump.
Seeing that she was anxious and charming, the madam had a sinister expression as if he had caught her weakness: "Huh! If you don't behave well in the future, I will have more work for him to do!"
"You..." Looking at her heartless face, Ke'er really wanted to slap her in the face, but she could only hold back.
Don't let her impulsive actions cause Sumei to suffer further.
The madam saw that neither of them dared to talk back, so he gave up and twisted his fat hips and led the two thugs away.
Before leaving, she scolded the thugs and said, "You have to brighten my eyes from now on. If someone comes here who is dishonest, I'll see if I don't kill you!"
When they walked away, they didn't realize that Su Mei was staring at them with a pair of unfathomable cold eyes, with a faint hint of bloodthirsty murderous intent in her eyes.
