So, at noon on the third day, Xiaocui came to deliver food again: "Miss, open the door quickly, I have food for you."
Qian Manman was practicing, but she didn't hear it because of the formation barrier. The formation was originally arranged by Qian Manman, but Tang Nanxi set up another formation outside after she practiced. Therefore, as soon as people arrived,
She found it at the door.
But this time, Tang Nanxi ignored her.
Xiaocui was afraid, wouldn't the eldest lady and Qian Yiniang starve to death? If they died, as their girl, she would definitely be beaten to death.
She opened her mouth and started crying: "Miss, are you dead?"
Tang Nanxi was angry: "Even if you die, I won't die!"
When Xiaocui heard Tang Nanxi's voice and knew that she was not dead, she immediately stopped crying. She put her rice at the door and left.
After that, Xiaocui brought food several times, but she just left it at the door. As a result, when she brought dinner, the food was still there.
For several days, neither mother nor daughter used the food Xiaocui sent.
Seeing that the food had not been eaten for five or six days, Xiaocui became afraid and ran to the mother in charge again: "Mother Zhang, Qian Yiniang and the eldest lady haven't eaten for several days."
Zhang’s mother was surprised: “Did they run away?”
"Is the door still closed?"
"The door is closed very well. Every time the slaves go to get food, they put the lock on the door so they can't get out," Xiao Cui said.
Tang Nanxi, who was watching Xiaocui from a distance, sneered in his heart: This Xiaocui belongs to Qian Manman and the eldest lady, but she calls herself me in front of Qian Manman and the eldest lady, but she calls herself a slave in front of a servant of Zhang's mother.
It can be seen that the eldest lady and her mother-in-law have never put their own position on the slave's side.
"You deliver meals every day, right?" Zhang's mother asked again.
"Yes, I deliver it every day." In fact, sometimes when there is no food, she is too lazy to deliver it.
"Have you taken good care of the yard these days? Has anyone brought food to them?"
Xiaocui shook his head: "No, I have been watching. I have never seen anyone delivering food to them. But -"
"But what?" Zhang's mother's eyes immediately gleamed, and she looked into Xiao Cui's eyes.
"However, I'm just guarding the front door, but if someone comes in through the back window, I can't see it."
Although the window at the back of the yard is small and no one can get out, it is still possible to pass things in.
Zhang's mother thought for a moment, and then she started to care about it, and said, "If you continue to deliver the food, if they don't eat it, just pour the food under the courtyard door. When they are hungry, they will naturally come out to pick up food. But, you
Keep an eye on them, especially the windows at the back."
Xiaocui was a little embarrassed. Although the yard was small, it was only compared to other yards, because it was originally a laundry room. No matter how small it was, it still had several rooms and a big yard. There were trees and wells in the yard. It was better than ordinary poor houses.
The yard is still much bigger.
If she goes to the front door, she can see the window at the back. If she goes to the back, she can't see the front door.
Zhang's mother also knew that she was in a bit of a dilemma, so she said, "Forget it, just guard the front door. I'll send someone else to guard the back."
"yes."
After Xiaocui left, Zhang's mother went to see Wu Qiaoqiao and told her about the incident in the small yard.
"You mean that bitch hooked up with a man and gave her food?"
Zhang's mother shook her head: "I'm just suspicious. Otherwise, why did Xiaocui not deliver food for three days? Then the eldest lady——"
