C22 Worry
At this time, Madam Xu, who had stayed up all night to embroider the colored sparrow, was about to blow the lamp to go to sleep when she heard a knock on the door.
In the past few days, when the Madam Xu wanted to be quiet, she had already chased away Hai Tang, who was living in the side room. At night, there was no one to help her, but when she heard someone knocking on the door, she walked over and asked: "Who is it?"
"Mother, it's me!" Song Rong's voice came from outside the door.
Madam Xu immediately opened the door. When she opened the door, she saw that Song Rong was not wearing any shoes, and only had on a piece of clothing. The buttons on the clothes were loose, so it could be seen that Song Rong had ran over here in a hurry.
"Lin Niang, what's wrong with you?" The Madam Xu was frightened and immediately asked.
Song Rong bit her lips. She wanted to say it out loud because she was worried about the Madam Xu, but when the words reached her mouth, it became: "Mother, I had a nightmare, I'm scared."
When Madam Xu heard this, she couldn't help but burst out laughing, "You child!"
As he spoke, he added anxiously, "Hurry up and get on the bed. Mother will wipe your feet. The air on the floor is very cold. If you step on it like this, what will happen to the wind chill?"
Listening to Madam Xu's concerned chatter, Song Rong walked over satisfied and sat down obediently.
Madam Xu took the handkerchief and wanted to wipe Song Rong's feet. However, Song Rong was a little nervous: "Mother, I'll do it myself."
If she really was a ten year old child, it would be normal for her mother to take care of her child. However, her age was quite high, how could she let her mother do such a thing for her!
Unexpectedly, Madam Xu was very stubborn and insisted on doing so.
Madam Xu grabbed onto Song Rong's ankle, and said to Song Rong: "Sit properly!"
When he spoke, his tone was already somewhat strict.
Although the Madam Xu was thin and weak, she was still an adult after all. Song Rong was only ten years old, how much strength could she have? Furthermore, Song Rong did not dare to struggle too hard.
If he accidentally hurt his mother because of such a small matter, it wouldn't be worth it!
Helpless, she could only allow Madam Xu to wipe her delicate feet clean.
Then, Madam Xu went to wash her hands. When she came back, he saw that Song Rong had already slipped away to the bed.
Madam Xu looked at Song Rong in amusement. She knew that this girl didn't want to leave tonight.
Thus, he undressed, laid beside Song Rong, and asked: "Lin Niang, what kind of dream did you have just now? So scared? "
Song Rong said in a hoarse voice, "Mother, I had a terrifying dream. I dreamt that my father was gone, and my mother had also left with father. My brother and I were bullied by others, and no one dotes on us ?."
Song Rong said in a half-truth half-lie. It was true that she had never had a dream, but she had truly experienced it in her entire life.
Hearing Song Rong's words, the Madam Xu was slightly stunned.
After that, Song Rong's small hands reached over. She moved closer to him, and like an even younger child, she cuddled up in Madam Xu's embrace and said in a muffled voice, "Mother, no matter what happens, you cannot leave my brother and me ?"
Madam Xu was silent for a moment, then said: "Mother knows, Mother will not."
Song Rong was worried that if she had been negligent, then Song Dai would really do something to his mother. At that time, even if she did not take her life, based on his mother's valiant nature, she could not say for sure ? She would really leave with her father!
The scene that happened in the mourning hall, just thinking about it made her terrified. If she was not there, what would Song Dai have done to her mother?
In his previous life, did Song Dai kill his mother or humiliate his mother, leaving her no choice but to hang herself?
No matter what, Song Rong felt that she had to let his mother know just how important she was. Even if something happened to make his mother not want to live, his mother had to think about the two of them and continue living on with determination.
Madam Xu's body had a nice smell of flowers and plants. Song Rong had slept soundly that night.
This was the most peaceful sleep she had ever had since she was reborn.
When she woke up, Madam Xu was already awake, she had already organized everything and was preparing for breakfast.
Song Rong followed and drank a bowl of congee with her silver ear, then ate some vegetables. At breakfast, she thought about what she should do next, she did not want to sit still and wait for death.
After dinner, she already had a plan.
Not to mention the distance, right now, there was one thing she needed to do.
It was time to deal with Hong Xing, the unloyal slave. Raising this kind of disaster in the courtyard might bring about some other trouble, but how should he deal with it?
If this was simply driving Hong Xing out, it would be hard for Song Dai to not be suspicious.
Furthermore, if Hong Xing left, there was a chance that a red date or something would appear in her next step ?
When she returned to the house, she saw Hong Xing working in the house, while Qing Tao was taking some dirty stuff out to wash.
She used to think that Hong Xing was diligent, but now that she thought about it, she realized that she was really too naive back then. She only saw the surface of the person, but this Hong Xing was fine.
As for Qing Tao? That was all the hard work, all the tiring work!
However, this kind of work, was not something that could be done in front of the owner. In the end, she felt that Qing Tao was lazy and stupid, but she was clever and hardworking!
It seems that Hong Xing was quite cunning, just that she did not use the Mind's Eye on the right path!
"Hong Xing." Song Rong unwittingly called out to her.
"Sigh!" Hong Xing replied with a smile.
Song Rong sized up Hong Xing. Hong Xing should be fifteen years old this year, only, she was well-developed, and looked a little older than her actual age.
It could be said that the front and the back were protruding, and the top were exquisite and exquisite. The ordinary maid's hair had been combed until it had a new design, and on her head was a yellow-colored silk flower.
For the past few days, the people inside the Penglai House had been wearing plain clothes, and it was impossible for Hong Xing to reveal it, but even the light color had let her wear a different kind of charm.
At this moment, she was smiling with a charming look on her face. It was obvious that her heart was moved.
It was all thanks to her understanding of the world. In her previous life, how could the ten years old her have been able to see through all of this?
As Song Rong watched, her heart sank. His mother's suffering this time was most likely due to Hong Xing informing her. This person could not be left alive.
Thinking about it this way, she smiled and said: "Hong Xing, I want to eat elm money."
"Miss, why do you suddenly want to eat that wild thing, Elm money?" Hong Xing laughed and teased, and maybe it was because Song Rong had allowed her to speak so freely, causing her to speak even more unbridled words. After listening carefully, she no longer had the appearance of a master or servant.
