Chapter 458: I mistakenly took my sister-in-law’s handkerchief and used it as a token of connection
Feng was trimming the branches of the bonsai in the yard. She was very careful and attentive, trimming the holly and privet trees into round and fluffy shapes. She didn't notice that Ling Yin was already standing in front of the door.
Seeing her mother-in-law's peaceful face, Ling Yin suddenly couldn't bear to talk about this matter. Besides, it might not be true. Maybe those two people were mistaken.
If I tell her now, it will upset my mother-in-law.
She looked down at her belly. It was six months old, so it was a little big, but she was born with good physical strength, so she was not worried about not being able to walk to that place.
Ling Yin secretly retreated back into the house. She glanced at the window. The Qiao family had a large courtyard and large rooms, and each window was also built very large.
She found something to put her feet on, but she was very careful. First she found a mat, then a stool, then a chair, a table, and she also prepared something to turn over and use as a footstool.
After everything was done, Ling Yin slowly climbed up. She was very anxious, but she knew that she couldn't lose her composure, lest she hurt the child.
Outside, Song Daming and Song Xiaohua hid in the corner of the wall, quietly waiting for the prey to appear.
Song Xiaohua guessed that with Ling Yin's personality, she would not let her family worry until she was sure of the situation. Maybe she would go and see the situation first.
The Qiao family didn't allow her to go out, so naturally she had to climb through the window.
The Qiao family is like this. You think about me and I think about you. It's so hypocritical. If she were in the Qiao family, she would have secretly taken away all the gold, silver and jewelry and ran away.
Capital city, Pei family, at this moment.
Qiao Jianer and Qiao Zhizhi came out of shopping and were sorting the bags, big and small, on the table.
As for Qiao Dacheng, he was choosing weapons from the Pei family armory.
Goods from the capital, ranging from jewelry to spices, from cloth to ornaments, were bought for one thousand taels. Qiao Jianer said it was no problem and everyone in the family would have a share.
Pei Shijiu wanted to pay, but she stopped him firmly and even threatened to get angry with him before he gave up. However, he also bought a lot of things with his own money and secretly stuffed them into these bags.
There were several newly bought handkerchiefs with novel and vivid patterns. Qiao Jianer was about to replace the one he was using when Qiao Zhizhi took a look at it unintentionally.
"Jian'er, this handkerchief of yours belongs to Sister-in-law Ling Yin."
"No way, why would I take my sister-in-law's handkerchief?" Qiao Jianer looked at her.
She actually doesn't pay much attention to these things.
"It's Sister-in-law Ling Yin's. It has mandarin ducks embroidered on it. We're not married yet, so who would use something like this?" Qiao Zhizhi said affirmatively, "Sister-in-law must have forgotten to take it out when she went to your room to ask you to learn how to read."
Qiao Jian'er thought about it and realized that since she had taken the wrong one, she would just give two more to her sister-in-law.
Just as he was about to put the handkerchief away, he remembered that Ling Yin was pregnant and had been here for more than half a month. Since there was a connection, he might as well ask his sister-in-law about her situation.
Qiao Jianer took the handkerchief, went into the inner room, and put his hand on the handkerchief.
At this time, Ling Yin had just climbed onto the table with great effort. She leaned her head out and looked down, and her heart felt a little cold.
The outer circle of the Qiao family courtyard had a ditch dug along the wall for drainage, so it was much higher than the inner circle.
If she continues like this, something bad will probably happen.
Just put as much stuff as possible.
So she threw the futon down and went to look for new bedding.
Seeing a futon thrown into the ditch, Song Xiaohua and Song Daming looked at each other and smiled as if their evil plan was about to succeed. They knew that it was going to work.
The Qiao family's painful time is coming soon.
Small items tend to be unstable when stacked. Ling Yin looked at the quilt on the bed; it was folded neatly and fit perfectly.
She took two quick steps and felt a sharp pain in her abdomen. She couldn't help but hold her stomach, and her facial features were distorted.
After I calmed down a little, I was about to pick up the quilt.
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from my mind: "Sister-in-law."
Looks familiar, like Jian'er? Jian'er is back? Ling Yin looked around but didn't see Qiao Jian'er.
"Sister-in-law, did you hear that? Don't be surprised. I was in the capital and used a special method to talk to you." Qiao Lianer said again.
Ling Yin was still very surprised. Such a thing was too unbelievable. However, when she thought about Jian'er, there were so many inexplicable things on his body. The Qiao family all knew it tacitly.
She said tentatively: "Jia'er, is it really you? That's great, I can talk to you like this, are you doing well in the capital?"
As she spoke, she went to pick up the quilt. She was very happy to have this conversation with Jianer, but it was not the right time.
Qiao Jianer could hear that Ling Yin's voice was a little stiff and seemed to be trembling a little. Was she scared?
It's unlikely, Ling Yin wouldn't be so timid.
She keenly felt that something was not right.
"I'm fine, sister-in-law. Is there anything wrong?" Her tone was a little lower.
Sure enough, her reaction couldn't fool Jianer, although she had tried her best to restrain herself.
Ling Yin's tears suddenly flowed out. She was frightened and helpless just now, but now, she seemed to have found support.
She could choose not to mention this to the Qiao family for the time being, fearing that it would cause chaos, but it was different with Jianer. Jianer was a person with his own ideas and was able to solve problems.
"Jian'er, Jian'er, something happened, something happened to your brother Dayong." She said in a trembling voice with tears in her eyes.
"Sister-in-law, don't be anxious. Talk slowly." Qiao Jian'er said, "As long as the sky doesn't fall, I'll hold it up."
So Ling Yin told everything she had just heard.
"Your brother Dayong is in such a miserable state. He was stabbed so many times, even his intestines were..." She couldn't continue. She didn't even dare to imagine such a situation.
Qiao Jianer frowned: "Those two people passing by the side wall, are they from the village?"
"It should be. The voice sounds familiar, but I can't remember it right now."
"They left right after they finished talking, and I didn't see anyone."
"I didn't dare to tell my family. When I heard you talking, I was putting some things in my bag and preparing to climb out of the window to see what was going on. Those two people even told me the specific address. I can find your brother Dayong, but I don't know if he has been transferred to the base yet."
Qiao Jianer murmured, "Sister-in-law, maybe this is a trap."
"Trap?" Ling Yin was stunned.
"That's right. They described Dayong's miserable condition, gave his address, and happened to pass by your window. The elements are too complete. Is this such a coincidence?"
Qiao Jian'er sneered. She had just received a letter from the Guan family. The troops had already set off and she needed to go to the emperor.
Several members of the Qiao family came to the capital, and some of them were ready to make a move, either from the Shen family or the Song family.
My sister-in-law is pregnant. If she goes out alone, she will be like a fish at the mercy of others. At that time, her relatives will be sad and her enemies will be happy.
"Keep calm and do what I say. You'll soon know whether it's true or not."
"Well, Kama-er, you say, I'm ready."
