Chapter 427 Admit your mistake

"Spare your life?" Nanzhi raised his eyebrows slightly, with a slight arc at the corner of his mouth.

Since getting married, Nanzhi's already beautiful face has gained a touch of charm. Although her health has deteriorated a bit since she was pregnant, she has regained some health over the past few days and her face has gained some color.

Just looking at it like this makes people a little dazed.

He Xiang looked at her, and the jealousy in her heart grew more and more crazy.

She actually regretted it.

If she hadn't followed Qian Er, she would still be the little girl who lived easily every day.

Although their status may be inferior to others, they are all under the command of the city lord's wife.

Even when they reach the age of marriage, they are more popular than girls from ordinary people's families.

She heard about these things when she was selling vegetables in the market.

It was also at that time that she realized how many people in Yancheng wanted to work at Sanweiju and ice drink shops.

Even many domestic slaves bought back by wealthy families would not receive a single reward in their lifetime, but they had to make a fuss and leave without doing the errands that everyone envied.

Looking at the graceful woman in front of her, He Xiang clenched her fists, and there was a bit of gloom in her eyes.

But what if, what if she kept him one more time at that time?

Obviously, she was obviously the wife of the city lord. If she was unwilling to let her go, how could Qian Er succeed?

When a person intentionally deceives himself, all responsibilities will be subconsciously pushed to others.

She seemed to have forgotten that it was she who kept saying that she no longer wanted to be an inferior slave or work as an errand.

It was also her private exchange with Qian Er, and she gave herself away at will.

She and Qian Er even came up with the idea of ​​splashing blood to attract attention, and then took the opportunity to coerce her into letting her go.

"What is my relationship with you? Why should I spare your life?"

Nan Zhiyan smiled, looking at He Xiang, she felt like she had heard some big joke.

She thought she could change the current situation of this place, but later found that everything was in vain, so she gave what she could to these so-called "servants".

But what's the result?

The result was He Xiang's dissatisfaction and her repeated unwillingness to be a slave.

That's when she understood.

She couldn't change this world.

When she was poor, she had to take her three-year-old Zhiyu around to find food to fill her stomach. When she encountered natural or man-made disasters, she had to fight to the death with her family to survive.

But when she became the "rich and powerful" person, a human life seemed to become a thatch, insignificant.

Sometimes reality is that simple.

"Madam..." He Xiang mumbled, a look of embarrassment flashed across her face.

"You slander me behind your back, and you want me to spare your life in person, He Xiang, who do you think you are?"

Nanzhi didn't speak politely.

After all, she was greedy when she was good to Hexiang and the others. Now that she is in the position of superior and inferior, why should she retain that favor?

"Madam, we know that we were wrong. Please, madam, please be magnanimous and don't argue with us."

Hexiang knew that Nanzhi would no longer cherish the old master-servant relationship, so she simply pulled Qian Er and knelt down.

She didn't believe that Nanzhi would really kill these servants in front of them.

and……

I don't believe that she would commit murder regardless of the child in her belly.

"If Madam doesn't feel relieved, you can beat and scold us. Just please, just please, Madam, please don't hurt our lives."

He Xiang's words were pleasant, and she just wanted to make the servants around her feel a little moved.

After all, if the mistress of the house is so violent during pregnancy, then they will probably be dissatisfied.

But what was unexpected was that the servants all had normal expressions on their faces, only holding the sticks in their hands and staring at the two of them for a moment.

"No matter how much you talk, it's useless. He Xiang, now I am the wife of the city lord, and you are just a slave woman. If I want to kill you, it will be like crushing an ant.

At the beginning, you tried every means to make a loving couple with Qian Er, and I fulfilled your wish. Now that your wish has come true, why do you want to fall into my hands again? "

Nanzhi blocked everything He Xiang wanted to say, and just looked at the two people kneeling on the ground and sneered.

She thought she was made of tofu, did she really have no temper?

The first time, because he felt pity for her, he only held Qian Er responsible and did not make things difficult for her.

Unexpectedly, she was obviously a smart girl, but she would do such self-destructive things.

She also sent people to investigate the Qian family's affairs.

Lotus fragrance is not as pure and kind as it seems.

Qian Er's father had been kicked out of the house last month. It was Qian Er who kicked him out, but it was He Xiang who really came up with the idea.

The reason is not sufficient and even a bit absurd, but Qian Er himself is an extremely selfish person.

When He Xiang said that Qian Lao was at home for a day, he couldn't keep any of the money he earned. Even the two of them had to eat gruel every day to earn money to support Qian Lao. Qian Er just wanted to eat more bites of meat. , and kicked his father out of the house.

It is October now, and the cold wind is blowing in Yancheng all day long. Mr. Qian has not been seen since he was seen begging for food outside a food shop half a month ago.

Even so, Qian Er never asked again.

Even the time when Qian Er fell and became lame, it was also because of He Xiang.

She had means and was smart, but she just didn't use them in the right way.

Worried that Nanzhi would get angry, Mapo hurriedly patted her on the back.

Nanzhi calmed down and then smiled gratefully at Mapo.

Thinking of the things she had found out and what He Xiang had done before, she felt a little excited.

After all, He Xiang has now suffered retribution. No matter how good or bad her life is, it has nothing to do with her.

Seeing the trace of jealousy flashing in her eyes, Nanzhi slowly spoke.

"I don't understand why you hate me, He Xiang. When I was in the courtyard, I took care of your food and accommodation, taught you crafts, and even found a wife for you to teach you how to read and write.

You think you are a slave, but I said that as long as you work hard and save enough ten taels of silver, you can redeem yourself here.

But how did you do it?

The monthly payment I give you has never been less than one tael of silver, and this is when other rewards have never been taken into account.

Even if you spend some money, you still can’t save it in a year?

You want to be free, and you think I can't see it after co-writing Qian Er and acting in such a clumsy scene?

Now that our relationship between master and servant has long since disappeared, you can just live your own life, so there is no need to come to me. "

After thinking about it, Nanzhi no longer had any anger in his heart.

After all, he is just an insignificant person.

Hexiang only bit her lower lip after hearing her words.

Nanzhi's words tore apart the veil of self-deception.

She regretted it early.

But now she is still a slave, and she is married to Qian Er. How can she get ahead again?

"Madam, please save me for the sake of your old master-servant love."

Hexiang figured it out, looked at her rough palms, and kowtowed several times.

She stopped until she hit a dark mark on the bluestone.

She doesn't want to, nor does she want to stay with Qian Er for the rest of her life!
