Chapter 124: Being disrupted
Chapter 124: Being disrupted
I was a little confused about the situation and wanted to ask Nuonuo to confirm what it meant.
Before I could even raise my head, a hand pressed it down, and before I could react, I was held in his arms.
My heart is pounding so hard at this moment. This embrace is so warm and dizzy.
Yes, I felt dizzy. I passed out while being held like that. I fainted more times here than in my previous two lives combined.
Isn't it illegal to sell drugs here? There are drugs everywhere. I started to think that if I go to modern times to sell drugs, maybe I can achieve some small goals.
When I woke up, no? I should have woken up from the cold. My neck was itchy. I reached out to scratch it, and it turned out to be ants. I stood up in shock and found that my body was almost invaded by ants.
I stamped my feet, trying to shake off all the ants on my body. I looked at the same corner of the wall, and the sun in the sky was beginning to brighten.
I stood up, the numbness in my feet rushed straight to my head, and I climbed up the wall with difficulty and looked at the empty space in the yard. I began to feel curious and looked at the wall where Nono was yesterday.
It was nowhere to be seen either. It must have fallen asleep at this time. I returned to the stable. The horse had rested well. I climbed on the horse and headed home.
I was absent-minded and confused along the way, and I almost fell into the ditch several times. Fortunately, the horse was very smart and did not foolishly run into the ditch.
When I returned to the gate, Hongdou was sitting on the gate railing and sleeping. It seemed that she had slept like this all night. I carefully led the horse to the stable in the backyard and covered Hongdou with my cloak.
Hongdou was sleeping very soundly and hadn't been woken up yet. I wanted to grab her by the waist and carry her into the room, but someone got there before me. I looked at the mountain in front of me and was stunned.
The dust on his body showed that he had come from a long journey. I followed Dashan into the room, looked at the sleeping Hongdou, and was interrupted by Dashan when I wanted to speak.
He didn't say anything, just put his finger to his mouth and told me not to wake Hongdou up. He looked at Hongdou deeply again, then rode straight to the horse at the door and rode away.
I wanted to call out to Dashan, but I didn't have the time to put my arm down. I sighed helplessly and looked at Hongdou. I was still thinking about whether I should tell Hongdou about this.
Finally I took a hot shower. The people Xiaobai sent were really useful. The hot shower was prepared in advance, and there were also clothes. When I finished showering and sat on the bed, there was a knock on the door.
After the people outside cleaned up everything, they even covered the windows with a piece of cloth. It was really meticulous. The cloth did not cover it completely, but just made the light in the room very warm, making it easy to sleep.
When I woke up again, I realized that my sleeping time had been a bit messy recently. I felt dizzy and a little nauseous. I drank the tasteless porridge and almost lay on the table to drink it. I felt completely dazed.
It was three days later when I recovered. After Hongdou woke up that day, she asked me what happened. I said that Dashan carried her in.
But Hongdou refused to believe it no matter how hard she tried, and insisted that the servant carried the baby in. I told her the truth but she still didn't believe it, so what could I do but follow her lead.
The silk shop was also put on hold temporarily. Although the shop was closed on the surface, most of the big customers would not come in person, and would have the goods delivered to their homes, so it did not have any impact.
In other words, there are fewer individual customers, which makes the guys more relaxed. They just find a place to rest when they have nothing to do. I pretend not to see it. The guys can't be too strict. If the string is too tight, it will eventually break.
I heard from the shopkeeper that they followed Miss Juan back to Manxianglou, but there was nothing strange. It seemed that Miss Juan was taken away, and they hadn't seen her come out to receive customers for several days.
I sneaked in several times but never saw Miss Juan show up. This is not surprising. Miss Juan is an old lady and she is very good at dealing with men. I remember this when I was in Manxianglou.
Miss Juan has always been in a state of being supported by someone. I was bored and just gnawed on the duck in my hand. I listened for a long time but didn't get any useful information. I think I should start with Miss Juan.
I threw a bag of silver from my pocket and said, "Find a few strangers to go and take a look." The shopkeeper took the money and left without saying anything else. After an incense stick of time, the shopkeeper brought in a row of people.
Just like choosing a concubine, I picked a few who looked a little wretched, and found a few who looked pretty, and there was always one type that Miss Juan liked.
I spent a lot of money this time, and the shopkeeper was efficient. He let people go out through the back door and entered Manxianglou in several batches. I couldn't see any problems at all.
I lay on the roof of Manxiang Tower, watching the people coming and going downstairs. If I hadn't asked Nannan, I would have known that this was the busiest time of the year and my mother would not have been in the mood to care about anything else.
Yes, the foundation of survival is to save money. It is not good to be distracted by other things when the business is at its best. I looked at the scene in front of me with a click of my tongue. There was nothing new about it.
I was hiding in a corner watching the couples doing bad things. Yes, several couples. I decided to go home and sleep. It was so boring. Nuo Nuo also started to come every other day.
He didn't say anything when asked, he just came earlier and left later. Seeing how enthusiastic he was about learning, I didn't ask him anything, but just taught him more attentively.
If I had half the brains of Nono, I could easily choose between Tsinghua University and Peking University. It has only been a short time, but Nono can already express what he thinks simply, though a little inverted.
I was wandering around the street with my veil on and started thinking about one thing: who was the person that night with ants on her body? My guess was pretty close. It should be Yaoyao. The sweet smell on her body would attract ants.
I skipped back to the room and looked at the empty yard. Well, it’s not empty, because the servants were staying in their resting place at this time.
Because there are so few people, they have a lot of rest time, so they are very meticulous in doing things. It's just that it's too quiet, so quiet that I feel a little uneasy when sleeping.
I lay on the swing, covered with a quilt, swaying and looking at the sky. The sky without air pollution is so different. The starry sky that I had hardly seen for a long time before has become a daily sight here.
I also called Nannan out, wanting to chat with her to pass the time. Why did you say it was quiet? It was because I really couldn't find anyone there.
I don't know what happened to those three little girls. It was pure luck that I met them.
