Dongling was afraid that the big lady would feel uncomfortable when she saw her appearance, so she wiped the wet corner of her eyes clean before lying beside the bed.
Lying in bed, Cao Xi's face is as pale as a ghost in the night. These days, she has been confused about who is in bed. If she doesn't wake up for so many hours every day, she may really think that she is in the palace of hell.
See Cao Xi wake up, Dongling can't help but red eyes: "big lady, what do you think?"
Cao Xi opened her heavy eyes and saw all the shabby things in front of her, which made her realize that Cao's family was broken. It was a fact, not a nightmare.
She's only alive now to save breath and meet her grandson, whom she never met.
If not for this belief, she would have gone to see Yuanning long ago.
The sight gradually clear, in front of that skinny person can't help but let Cao Xi heartache up, she actually want to say to Dongling, this period of time, she worked hard, she could have left her no matter, they now in this Yuzhou Marquis don't know what life, this day also don't know when can be a head!
There was anger and hatred in Cao Xi's eyes, as well as her hopelessness.
Dongling was really distressed to see her like this. She took out the steamed bread from her arms and cried: "madam, Dongling met a kind-hearted person outside just now. We can hold on for a few more days, and I also heard that Jingrong is coming back!"
"Mm-hmm..." hearing Fang Jingrong coming back, Cao Xi was sad and happy. Sad that she had to face the person who had done her such harm. Happy that maybe she could take this opportunity to leave Yuzhou Marquis's house?
Once upon a time, she thought that she would always be the hostess of the Yuzhou Marquis's mansion, and she would enjoy a lot of splendor and wealth in her life. But when did she start, her life fell into hell, making her life worse than death, and all this was given by Fang Jingrong.
"Madam, it's our last chance for young master Jingrong to come back this time. I know that you hate young master Jingrong, but now we're living in his hands. If we miss this chance, we're afraid we won't have another chance to leave the marquis." Dongling words fall, wipe the red and swollen corner of the eye.
As a matter of fact, Cao Xi knows Dongling's painstaking efforts. What can she find fault with now? It's not easy for her to pick up a life.
Cao Xi nodded. Because Fang Jingrong had cut off her tongue, she couldn't make any sound except Mm-hmm.
Dongling knew what she wanted to say, and also knew the grievance in the big lady's heart. She carefully wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with the place where her sleeves were still clean: "Madam FA, you are hungry. I'll give you a bubble of steamed bread."
Dongling words fall, turned to the kitchen.
When it snowed a few days ago, Dongling made snow in the VAT. Only in these days can they have hot water to drink.
The only two orifices they had in the kitchen were too wet to use. Fortunately, Dongling found several flints in the corner. Although the flints took much more effort to make a fire than the orifices, sometimes in order to drink hot water, Dongling even spent hours to light some damp firewood in the kitchen.
The firewood in the kitchen is accumulated bit by bit by Dongling. Some of them are dry branches, and some of them are dry leaves on the ground. Sometimes when she is very hungry, she will make some leaf soup to drink.
For fear of wasting firewood and water, I dare not burn more winter ice cream every time, and the water in the pot is only enough to fill more than half a bowl.
After the water is cooked, Dongling soaks half of the steamed bread into the water. The steamed bread absorbs water. In addition, the steamed bread that has not been put for a long time looks soft and delicious. Looking at the bowl of steamed bread, Dongling swallows a few mouthfuls of foam, and then carries the bowl into the room.
See Cao Xi don't eat, Dongling hastily opened a mouth: "big madam, you eat quickly, there is still in the kitchen, you finish eating I eat again."
When Dongling said that, Cao Xi opened his mouth.
It's ridiculous to say that Cao's family, once one of the best Marquises in Yuzhou, should have fallen to this point!
Miss Cao's family has been holding her in the palm of her hand since she was a child. I never thought that today's bowl of steamed bread made her taste delicious. I don't know whether it's sad or ridiculous.
Eating, Cao Xi's tears will stay down, Dongling know her grievance, comfort way: "big lady, wait for Jingrong childe, let's give that thing out, we will soon be out of this Yuzhou marquis."
Cao Xi swallows the things in her mouth and nods to Dongling. She seems to be telling Dongling that she is full.
Dongling took a bowl and went to the kitchen. This steamed bread was hard won. How could she be willing to eat it? She had to put the steamed bread soaked in the bowl in another bowl and drink some steamed bread water.
When Dongling finishes drinking the steamed bread, he hears the knock outside the door. Who will come at this time?
Could it be that the elder brother just now gave them something to eat again.
Dongling ran out of the kitchen with a happy face. When she came to the door, she saw that it was Liangyu waiting for her outside.
Needless to say, she came to find fault again. Dongling's heart thumped. In front of her, young master Jingrong was about to go back to his house. At this juncture, there must be no mistake.
Winter Ling thinks so, in the heart then make up one's mind, this time no matter how cool jade insults her, she won't have any refutation.
Liangyu coldly looked at Dongling, who was not a ghost in the crack of the door, and hummed coldly: "why, you two are really tough, not dead“
Dongling bit the corner of her lip and suddenly fell down on her knees to Liangyu: "Liangyu, I beg you, just let us go. The big lady is like this now. She doesn't have much time to live."
"Well, as like as two peas, I have not been able to spare two wives. I remember clearly, but the two ladies are here, two of them, but you have suffered a lot of grievances. We live in a lady who looks exactly the same as the two ladies. You must know that. Now I am waiting for her to see her. It reminds me of those unpleasant things in the past. I tell you that as long as I live for one day, it will never pass. This time, I'm here to tell you two that the marquis will come back in two days. I advise you not to do anything, or I'll make you two more miserable than you are now. " Liang Yu spat at the crack of the door.
The spit fell on Dongling's half face and was wronged. She had been used to it in the Houfu these days, but in order to vent her anger on Liangyu, she could endure it.
