Chapter 132 Mysterious Woman
"I ask a question and you answer it. If it's yes, nod your head. If it's no, shake your head. If you dare to lie to me, I will leave a mark on your pretty little face." Of course, these words were meant to coax her, but the girl was still scared and nodded like a chicken.
I asked a few questions and got satisfactory answers, so I thought about how to deal with this person. I wanted to let her go, but then I saw her shaking her head frantically, and I knew in my heart that she would not have an easy time if she went back like this.
But I didn't know what to do. What if this person was a spy sent here? I called the secret guard out and briefly told him my needs. The secret guard understood and turned and left.
I'm really busy. It's time to go find the golden pig. I haven't seen the golden pig for a long time. I don't know if it was injured while helping me change my face. I returned to the room and saw that the translucent golden pig had turned back to its original shape.
A golden pig hand-held figurine, but he can still talk to me normally. After all, he has helped me so much, so I must thank him properly. The golden pig's tone is full of boasting.
Talking about my masterpiece, I said it was really good. I praised the golden pig to the sky, and the golden pig seemed to be floating. Looking at the golden pig, which was originally translucent, I was really afraid that the golden pig would really float up.
I took the golden pig, tapped its head and asked it how it became like this. The golden pig said nonchalantly that it had used some of its energy to exchange for my face and that it had come back after eating some good food.
I agreed immediately and said that I would buy Golden Pig whatever he wanted to eat. Golden Pig opened his mouth and asked for fifteen pork elbows, and they had to be stewed very tender.
I was a little confused. How could he finish 15 pork elbows? What was even more strange was that he ate the pig? Is it really okay to eat yourself? I also started to ask sincerely, and Jinzhu said nonchalantly, "It's okay."
Under Jinzhu's determined gaze and tone, I had people buy a lot of pork elbows and asked the kitchen to cook them. Anyway, in order to make people feel weird, my excuse was to reward the servants.
They happily ran all over the city to buy thirty of them, and used all the pots in the kitchen. They stewed them until the evening. I tricked everyone into the yard to drink, and put the golden pig in the kitchen, letting them eat slowly.
My Golden Pig didn't eat them. His method was a bit like Nannan's. In a blink of an eye, the fifteen pork elbows and the whole plate of chestnut cakes disappeared, but the Golden Pig remained the same, translucent. According to the Golden Pig, I would eat them slowly later.
I was thinking about some things on the way back. My mother is not here now, and I dare not go to Manxianglou. What if the guy behind her is more powerful than my mother? That person will be dead.
On my way back, I was thinking that it is better to rely on myself than on others. I thought of the Golden Pig's face-changing, and started to ask Golden Pig questions along the way. But you know, this is not a face-changing, it's just something like a sleight of hand.
I was able to become a human being in the eyes of the designated person, and I was convinced of this idea in my heart. For the whole next week, there were pork elbows until the 30th pork elbow was placed in front of the golden pig's ear.
I saw that his face was almost as pale as a pig's elbow. He was not a fool. He must have known that someone who showed kindness to others for no reason was either a traitor or a thief. He looked at me and knew what I wanted to do.
He was reluctant to take the ones in front of him, and I immediately beat him back. The reason was that he had already taken the first 29, and he didn't want the last one. What was he thinking?
In the end, Jinzhu accepted it rather unhappily. I was already making plans in my mind. The people at Manxianglou also came back and told me that after my mother returned to Manxianglou, she opened the door that very night.
I still admire this guy a lot. After staying in jail for so long, I thought he would take a break or something. Besides, after opening the door, the mother began to check on the customer intentionally or unintentionally.
It is said that those who are not regular customers are not allowed to enter for the time being. The excuse is that some girls have caught a cold. The number of customers has decreased a lot, but the charm of Manxianglou is still quite great. Even so, guests still come in an endless stream.
And there were more people than usual. Many men carrying large and small bags were rushing to wait patiently at the door of Manxianglou, as if there were some rare treasures inside Manxianglou waiting to be unveiled.
Now is definitely not a good time, I still have to wait, I thought about the teacup in my hand and pulled down the curtain in front of me. I was now in the tavern on the upper floor opposite Manxianglou.
This should be the time to check out the time. Looking at the three little ones who were eating like crazy at the table, it was Nannan who suddenly jumped out to eat, looked at me pitifully and said she was hungry. I wanted to ask her to make something for dinner, but Nannan refused and insisted on coming out to eat.
After thinking about it, I decided that the restaurant opposite Manxianglou is not bad and I could go there to check it out. Fortunately, it has a private room. If someone saw me, would I have the face to do that?
A girl ate three or four main dishes, a bucket of rice, and some vegetarian dishes. If I hadn't looked at these three like hungry wolves, I would have asked for clarification. What puzzled me the most was the golden pig.
Even though I gave him so much food, he was the one eating the most happily. I was afraid he might die of overeating. My chopsticks were intentionally or unintentionally stopping Golden Pig from eating.
He didn't care about that at all. Seeing that he couldn't eat the dishes far away, he ate up the dishes closest to him. I drank a belly full of tea and even drank enough water.
When there was nothing left on the table, Nannan disappeared all of a sudden. I wanted to ask the other two what happened, but Li Yu was still wiping the stains from the corners of his mouth with his gentle look.
They explained that they had something urgent to do and disappeared in a flash. I noticed that the Golden Pig also wanted to take the opportunity to escape, but this guy came back and turned into a lucky doll, moving quietly towards the window.
I grabbed him by the clothes on his back with one hand and looked at him with a smile, "They have something to do, and so do you!" This was definitely not a question but an affirmative sentence. If this guy had something to do, he would definitely not be available every day.
Thinking that Nuo Nuo would be here soon, it was just like going to work. He would come on time every day, and when he returned to his room, Nuo Nuo would already be practicing calligraphy. This guy's intelligence was really unmatched by anyone else.
He can now communicate with me very smoothly and has mastered the commonly used characters, but he still doesn't know idioms.
I stood behind Nuonuo and watched him write the homework I had left for him stroke by stroke. I guided him on the mistakes in the strokes. Another afternoon passed like this, watching Nuonuo's receding back and the sky getting dark.
I felt really bored, so I picked up the box at the door, took out the hairpin and threw it where it was before, then started writing letters to Zi Fu. I didn't know how many letters I had written, but Zi Fu never replied.
