Farming Happiness: Husband, Come and Plough the Fields

At first, when Red Carp walked in, he felt that the room was dark and had a strange smell of decay.

"Forbidden place?"

Guren almost couldn't hold the teacup, she put the teacup heavily on the table.

When something happened, I had to find a way to remedy it, and reprimanding was useless.

"At that time, did anyone see you?"

When Li Haitang asked, judging by the red carp's expression, it was undoubtedly forbidden.

"No, that place is very remote, and if I'm found, I won't be able to get out alive."

Red Carp shook her head, her stomach was growling, and seeing a Buddha statue in the middle of the room with offerings placed on it, she wanted to take a piece of mung bean paste.

"The room is surrounded by small people made of stone, both men and women, it's scary to look at."

It was gloomy, with no light coming in, she was a little dazed, she couldn't find her way, and she just wanted to leave as soon as possible.

But before she could go out, there was a noise from the exit.

"In desperation, I hid behind the Buddha statue."

After Hong Li finished speaking, she wiped her tears with her hands. She had never seen such a big scene before, she was too scared to breathe, for fear of attracting attention.

Two people dressed as servants came in, carrying a door panel covered with white cloth.

When she heard the conversation between the two, she was frightened out of her wits.

"Today, the first day of October, the Cold Clothes Festival, is inherently cloudy, and the family is holding a birthday banquet, and let us come to an unlucky place!"

After the family finished speaking, they opened the curtain covered with white cloth, and there was a dead body lying on it.

The inner room is dark, she is a little far away, and she can't see it very clearly. It is really judged to be a seven or eight-year-old boy with no clothes on.

But the corpse was still a little different, it was dry, with a layer of oily wax on the surface.

"The birthday banquet has something to do with us? Hurry up and get the person into the stone, and we will complete the task."

Hearing this, the other servant shook his head, and the two of them worked together to bring down the stone man.

It turned out that there is another universe inside the stone man, which is hollow, and people are stuffed into it, and then sealed with soil and stones.

From the servant's few words, Red Carp knew that the stone figures in the entire hall were filled with corpses, and there were still hundreds of corpses underground.

Some were boys and girls, who were killed abruptly, dried by special techniques, and put into them.

These are all masterpieces of the old lady, and they are also the secrets of the City Lord's Mansion.

"These stone figures will be the old lady's funeral objects in the future."

The red carp didn't dare to think carefully anymore, the forbidden area in the City Lord's Mansion was not just one, there might be other more terrifying places.

Compared with being a concubine and making a fortune, the temptation to stay alive is greater.

She knew that she was short-sighted and could easily offend people with her words. If she offended the old lady, she would be turned into a stone figure, and she would stand upright after death, without even a coffin.

Red Carp only explained in a few words, which could not express her inner fear at all.

After the dancers heard this, their faces were full of horror. Seeing that the red carp was in a mess, with dilated pupils and shaking all over, they probably wouldn't be talking nonsense.

"It's almost time, haven't you changed your clothes yet?"

The door was pushed open, and the old mama walked in with her hands behind her back. She counted the number of people first, and felt relieved when she saw that there were not many people.

"Hurry up and don't delay, Maliuer! They are all noble people, so why wait for someone to change clothes?"

The old mammy's eyes were sharper than an eagle's. Looking at each of them, the hearts of the dancers almost jumped out.

"Nurse, we are all coming to the City Lord's Mansion for the first time, so we are inevitably a little nervous. The sisters were still discussing just now, so we must not embarrass ourselves in front of the City Lord and the old lady."

For this reason, Li Haitang smoothed things over, she just wanted to prevent these people from making mistakes and miss her original plan.

"It's only a quarter of an hour in total. After the dance, there will be a banquet, which is given to you by the old lady."

Mammy saw the dancers shrink back, thinking that they had never seen the world, so they didn't take it seriously.

As soon as the old mammy went out, the dancers all breathed a sigh of relief, and those who were timid had sweat dripping from their foreheads and had to keep wiping them with handkerchiefs.

"Hongtang, thank you."

Red carp thanked in a low voice, and thanked a group of people for helping her hide it, and did not complain to the old mother.

"It's all my fault for being small-minded. I'm really self-inflicted."

The red carp was used to being arrogant, and didn't know how to apologize, so he finally held back for a long time and said, "I'm sorry."

"For today's matter, we must be strict with our mouths, and we cannot say a single word."

It was a matter of secrecy, and rumors spread that Red Carp would not be dealt with alone, but everyone would be silenced accordingly.

Trespassing on forbidden places, seeing secrets, any of them are capital offenses.

Li Haitang told everyone that they can have their own little thoughts on small things, but they must be of the same mind when it comes to big things.

Perhaps there is a common secret, there is less friction between the dancers, and everyone wants to open up. It is better to find a big business family to enter the city lord's mansion.

"This City Lord's Mansion is a bit interesting."

Xiao Taohong's expression was unclear, he went to the small room inside to change clothes alone, and then told Li Haitang, "You and Liniang go first, I will send someone to meet you, I will stay here for the time being."

"Leave?"

Li Haitang frowned, Xiao Taohong always had ideas and plans, she said nothing else, so she could only say, "Be careful yourself."

"I can understand that, are you concerned about me?"

Xiao Taohong's heart warmed up. I don't know how many times I have heard such words, but it has never penetrated into my heart like this moment.

"up to you."

It's not wrong to pretend to be affectionate, to say that you care, but at least as a friend, she really doesn't want anything to happen to him.

Where did the thousands of boys and girls in the City Lord's Mansion come from? Red carp said that most of them are living children, and it costs a lot of money just to buy and sell.

Li Haitang couldn't bear to think too much, in the blink of an eye, the time had come.

The guests coming and going were invited to the main hall, and the sound of silk and bamboo orchestras came from inside.

The old lady of the city lord's mansion is about fifty years old, with black hair and almost no wrinkles at the corners of her eyes. It can be seen that she was a little bit of color when she was young. She is sitting in the main seat, wearing a scarlet jacket, looking dignified .

Liandong lowered her head, sitting behind her, and beside her were the city lord Yu Wenshou and his wife.

There is a young boy who specializes in delivering messages to announce the curtain, and the dancers line up and file in one by one.

"Among you, who is the heart?"

Before the petal dance started, Yu Wenshou got impatient and asked aloud.

The old lady next to her was surprised, and then looked at everyone.

Li Haitang lowered his head and hid in the corner, afraid that he would be recognized.

"Returning to the city lord, it is the slave."

Xiao Taohong took a step forward, suppressed the emotions in her eyes, her face was calm, neither sad nor happy.

If he guessed correctly, it must be Xiao Haitang who used him as an impostor. He is good-looking, but he has only seen the old lady, and the people in the house have no chance to speak in front of the city lord. Li Haitang used him as a top bag, Xiao Taohong was not annoyed, but thought in her heart that the woman she fancy is really different and attractive.
