"Kill, kill?" Ning'er repeated, seemingly frightened by this sudden sentence.
"Well~kill people~" Wu Sheyue curled the hair on her chest with her fingers and waited patiently for her answer.
Wu Sheyue asked this question because everything that had happened since waking up until now had confirmed to her that her new life would be in a dangerous environment. Moreover, Wu Sheyue's many years of career as a killer gave her an idea that she kept thinking about. That is: all conflicts can be resolved by killing the other party.
Even though he is an unqualified killer, he is still a killer after all. If she were to lurk and kill people, she should be able to do it if she tried her best.
She could see that Ning'er was a carefree child, and sometimes even got startled. Such innocent children are rare in the prime minister's house. At least she has suffered with Miss Silly for so many years, so it is better to let her know some things and make her own choices.
Ning'er was surprised for a long time before she said, "Aunt Yin...she was killed by the Eighth Prince. Why can't we avoid being killed even though we stay here as we should?"
"so-"
Ning'er quickly continued, "If it weren't for my aunt's protection, we would have died long ago! Even though the young lady has forgotten so much, her feelings of hatred have not been forgotten! That's why I want to kill them."
Wu Sheyue looked at Ning'er without saying anything. Ning'er thought that although she had forgotten the past events, the hatred caused by those events appeared with a clear mind. She couldn't explain it.
Ning'er said firmly, "No matter what Miss wants to do, Ning'er will never betray Miss!"
Wu Sheyue nodded. It was a pity that the third lady didn't have the chance to treat Ning'er well, so let herself do it for her. She smiled at Ning'er, "Okay, then let's find a way to live well."
The panic in Ning'er's heart calmed down, Wu Sheyue always made her feel warm. Also, at worst it won't be any more difficult for them than before.
Wu Sheyue promised Ning'er, "I won't pretend to be crazy or swallow my anger in the future. Believe me, when my brain doesn't work, it doesn't matter if they do something. Now that my brain works better, no one can do anything." You want to ride on my head. We used to be humble and humble, but we will never do that again!"
"Yeah!" Ning'er nodded excitedly, and then asked, "Then... Miss, in addition to those aunts and ladies, do you also want to go against the master and his wife?"
"At most, I don't know what I'm doing~" Wu Sheyue rolled her eyes, "By the way, how is the housekeeper today?" Since Ning'er has joined the team, she won't hide so much from Ning'er.
Ning'er thought for a while, "I haven't been in contact with him... but I heard from other sisters that he is very nice. And he is very disciplined in doing things. He never seems to make mistakes!"
No mistakes? So powerful, Wu Sheyue smiled and asked, "Who do you think is smarter between him and Bai Lian?"
"Bai Lian... is there any point in comparing this? I've heard many boys say that Bai Lian is kind, simple, and delicate and beautiful. But Ning'er and the other sisters think that Bai Lian is just pretentious."
A white lotus is useless, and an old fried dough stick appears immediately. The characters in this prime minister's mansion are really diverse and non-repetitive~ And the old butler seems to be in charge of a lot of things and will definitely come in handy in the future.
"We won't be lonely anymore."
—
The days are longer in early summer, and the sky is still very bright after dinner, but Jiang Qingxue's house is dark and lightless.
Jiang Qingxue frowned and looked at Bai Lian in front of her with a sullen face.
"Did you see it this day? What's wrong with her?"
Bai Lian said aggrievedly, "As soon as you left, she immediately made things difficult for me and asked me to do dirty work, wipe the floor of the mourning hall, and -"
"Let's get to the point." Jiang Qingxue was a little impatient and even came to pretend to be pitiful to her. This girl is really brainless.
"Yes, I think the third lady is deliberately trying to mess with me. She wants to give me a blow! How can a person who has just been so smart do this? Madam, she must have a conspiracy!"
Jiang Qingxue did not speak, but began to think carefully.
After a long time, Bai Lian asked carefully, "Madam? What should I do next? Please give me some advice."
"Are you sure? Does Wu Sheyue have a conspiracy? It's not unintentional?"
"I..." Bai Lian hesitated. She knew the former Third Young Lady, and it was really difficult for her to make a conclusion now. And if she makes a mistake, Madam will punish her to death.
Jiang Qingxue lowered her head and sipped her tea and stopped looking at Bai Lian. "I'll investigate for a few more days. If anything is wrong, come and tell me."
"My slave, I understand." Bai Lian hesitated, "But the third lady seems to be on guard against me..."
"Is she guarding you, or do you feel she is guarding you? She was guarding you and asked you to come here to report the news? Or... she is so confident that she is sure you can't find anything?" Jiang Qingxue sneered, "Go back and tell her, The doctor has prescribed tonics, and you have to come to me every day to get them from now on. Don’t worry about having excuses today but no excuses tomorrow."
"Yes." Bai Lian quickly agreed, "I will test it out as soon as possible."
After Bai Lian left in a hurry, Jiang Qingxue sat on the chair alone, poured another cup of tea by herself, and drank it leisurely. She looked at the air in front of her with distant eyes, feeling uneasy in her heart.
She knew that what the old lady said was right, but she was Yin Qiuming's daughter after all, and there was something fishy about it, so she had to treat it with caution. As long as Wu Sheyue has no other thoughts, let her live peacefully in the future. If someone instigates her, or if she seeks death herself... then the old woman can't even think of intervening!
Bai Lian returned to the west courtyard with the tonic. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Wu Sheyue and Ning'er chatting, laughing and joking.
She put the tonic on the table and said respectfully, "Miss, this is the tonic prescribed by the doctor. You can drink it while it's hot. Madam explained that she would ask someone to clean up the yard early in the morning. Miss, you can go out for a walk tomorrow and come back in the evening." Stay. If you can’t finish cleaning up in one day, you can go to the madam’s place to sleep overnight.”
The medicine that night was pitch black and smelled bitter. Ning'er covered her nose with her hands, this...is she boiling a bowl of coptis
"Okay, I understand." Wu Sheyue drank the bowl of medicine without changing her expression. "Okay, let's go to my grandmother's place tomorrow to eat and drink for a day."
Bai Lian was stunned and couldn't believe it. The medicine was so powerful that she couldn't cover her nose with both hands while holding it, and she wished she had to breathe.
Wu Sheyue glanced at her, "Is there anything else?"
"No, no... I'm going down now, this slave." Bai Lian collected the bowl and hurried out. (To be continued)
