天色已黑，月光淺淺的灑在車隊上，眾奴隸們打著盹，但搖晃總是使他們驚醒。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdCeCADnVM
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3nGeaRnFl
孟言猜測快到了，因為這種非法交易當然要趁晚將商品運送至屋裡，而現在還在趕路，代表目的地近了。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ks0lNju7U
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1oU99KXRS
透過少許火把上的焰光，他看著大家和坐在身邊的阿嬤。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NtephzoIG
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSc1cpRsiZZ
「阿嬤，撐得住嗎？」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYybEQETvXp
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreczT6t3H0
「可以啦……我還很健壯。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hw8GVVra2
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhtoxo3czL
「嗯……」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyfJy73uHZ
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTHplkweWc
在漫長的等待下，孟言看到了城鎮！沒多久，大家就被悄悄送進了一間大倉庫裡，各自找個位置，準備睡個好覺。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRahoylNV6
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqYq0BBxtI
「要睡就趕快睡吧！別太吵！還有一個時辰就要上工了。」部下說完便關上門，留下黑暗的空間。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iPWvTjJFA
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQhKbMAAgS
大家各自躺下，認命的睡了。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENtW6fQEQO
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikOb04qsUr
「這裡是哪裡呀……」孟言喃喃自語。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKfN1FrIIG
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVJCIyhavr
「不知道……」阿嬤有些擔心這都是一場騙局，會不會明天又要被賣到其他地方。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqhnRwjk8o
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1PPsgdX3N
「這裡是謝家的大宅……」角落裡傳來了一個聲音。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVn0XbNyGms
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasMfJM3V6Q
「誰啊……？」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqeuz57Psxo
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tiT3UnTw2
「你們的前輩，快睡吧……要聊明天有的是時間。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclgpxYpiTq
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxho5iRcY4
聽了這樣的建議，兩人就這樣睡了。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5Dt6DugyH
＊ ＊ ＊ ＊ ＊ ＊ ＊ ＊ ＊
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKku8POnT7
「起床啦！」一個魁武的男子闖了進來，踢醒每位奴隸，而老練的則俐落的閃過。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0YitVc0qZ
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fMMWqvP6Q
於是這樣開始工作了。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1doYLhGAL
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1brly4NBB
經過許多過程，孟言得知了工作內容，原來是要幫廣大的茶園抓蟲，山坡上都是無盡的茶樹，隨手一摘都是蟲，雖然勞累，不過聽說很賺，但賺的也是這宅子的主人，跟勞累的奴隸們完全沾不上邊。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrT0OsUfif
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AtHkav9H9
在許多工作交雜下，他經過了許多地方，全都不出這宅子，可見這戶人家有多麼的富有，而田裡的奴隸像螞蟻般穿梭抓著植物上頭的蟲，抓不盡。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4jEzwcx4X
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnkdZd1PDy
孟言找到了那位前輩「前輩，為何你們人這麼少？」放眼望去大部分都是剛上工的新奴隸。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp15Ac2KHbL
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YMYJxJ5SU
「因為前些陣子，一群奴隸集體自殺了。」簡短的回答。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIdcvIyqB4
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesoP612THM
他馬上瞭解到為何要買這麼多奴隸回來了。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRxkxi6QYo
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3T6luBAf0M
孟言望著彎著腰的阿嬤，有點後悔淌這個渾水。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAepIpF9i8W
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWnVo9c5Yi
「阿孟仔，沒有甚麼好後悔的，阿嬤很行的，而且你做得很好，救了一個無辜的生命。」阿嬤看出孫子心裡所想的事，經過身旁時摸了摸他的頭，笑著說著。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqXZVHrNNG
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXzCQpmmXy
這讓他心裡好受了些。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4MforTsEo
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJXoK1g7eY
這工作簡單，卻很勞累，每一天這樣持續下來，孟言看起來更消瘦了。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOJ05Tsxjg
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmphMRdblPX
忙碌之際，他向前輩請教了很多問題，整理出一些事情來。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiSt1lFPtj
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡympQg8gIdD
這宅子是謝家的，而陳二爺好像是跟謝大爺有什麼特殊的關係，並沒有血緣上的聯繫。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDmCzuCQYX
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9hoGmuT69
而謝家是這城鎮裡的大戶，許多方面的經濟都被他們佔有，總而言之就是地下界的王者。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicDXSuXMLo
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppqlRV1XRu
孟言他們這群人，就是這王國下的卑賤之物。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRlgLm9TrK
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCPOSLoZV0
新的生活就這樣展開了，不算好，但對他而言也不算太壞，每天三餐都有得吃，可以安心的睡覺，這樣的生活跟過去比起來好太多了。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxYU0qgNSb
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYWNISqyDD
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74zdoTq9Tu
有一天，在一個不太晴朗的下午，孟言被喚去提水，於是就提著三個水桶走向田地與宅子所分界的小溪邊，肩上扛著兩桶，手裡拿著一桶。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVmvq61mgx
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnq90BwZKfC
這不是他第一次做這工作，不算輕鬆，但也沒甚麼好抱怨的。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKIiLJuP7I
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybKlq3rkgO
這裡有許多花花草草，可以說是工作場所最漂亮的地方了，裝著裝著，不自覺的望著對岸的大宅子，想著裡頭的奢華生活到底可以多奢華？339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTmGg56l74
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSR6vi6DcxP
忽然，一顆球從宅子裡飛了出來，落到溪裡。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5XjxkVGz7
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmHQH96BDR
這溪流緩慢，球只是被卡在石頭上無法動彈，孟言靜靜看著，因為上頭有命令說：不准跨過河界！雖然這只是條小溪……339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqI0VugJQG
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9W2erJxzh
沒多久，一個小女孩有點喘的跑了出來，看了他一眼，逕自踩在石頭上，試著不弄濕鞋子去撿球。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKfAns3WeX
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFHgH4zXF9
大概她也有類似『不要跟奴隸講話』的制約吧？339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VtxTXAkYf
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFL8rjpnMrE
孟言有些擔心的看著這女孩，看起來跟自己差不多大，一身漂亮衣裳，看得出嬌生慣養的。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVRATq4jEo
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjgF9EHsCH
她緊張的一步一步朝球靠近，搖搖欲墜，看起來很危險。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaKGfMyXg9
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzwtPz7Je3
就在要碰到球的時候，不出所料，女孩跌倒了，正確來說是滑倒，栽落至水裡，水花濺起，而球也因此開始漂動。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXq0lnNHpX
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkjd2YSu89
原本不想多事，打算就這樣離開，但孟言發現了異樣。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHBxvMY81c
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyduw9i48U
也許是嗆到水，女孩拼命喘著氣，坐在水裡狼狽的不斷過度呼吸，一副快要死的樣子。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkXtQy6JJc
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUOadvdQ58
孟言知道這是什麼，以前的鄰居也有這症狀，這是『氣喘』！339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDRTg4IqkH
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfKSmN8dpN
「妳還可以嗎！？」他緊張了，忍不住問了一聲。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiNNbm6ONC
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLif75EcuQ
女孩只是難受的搖搖頭。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuZIQ1m8hk
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡediEAAI1si
想要幫忙，卻不能過河，於是孟言開始朝宅子裡呼救，但都沒什麼反應，最後，他顧不了那麼多了，迅速的踏過溪，身上的書掉了出來，但來不及管這個，他將快漂走的球撿了起來，隨手撿個尖銳的石子將它刺破，遞給這個女孩。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflUDmEkyA7
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwSfWbxSSM
她馬上知道這男孩的意思，於是接過這破掉的球，當作袋子般使用，用它罩住口鼻不斷的呼吸……深呼吸……339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMaVPRQxw4N
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatGwTdsjtc
孟言靜靜的看著渾身濕透的女孩，呼吸愈趨平緩他就愈放心，沒多久就有兩個侍女跑來了。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MoMI9uAAJ
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7SqjwKH4B
「小姐！有沒有怎樣？發生什麼事了！？」一名較有年紀的侍女緊張的問著。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwA2vNfw74y
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAp2mqka1r
看女孩沒什麼力氣回答，孟言就說了「她剛剛氣喘發作了……」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MLy8D4g3b
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFITHxeEaS4
「你這奴隸！還不快滾回去！一定是你嚇到她了！滾！」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2T9jIEDGT
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hclsMsST1
「……」這是他第一次討厭自己的身份，但也只能準備起身離開。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHq9H7RHB0H
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1uh1gIxB9
此時孟言感到有個微弱的力量拉住了他，是那女孩拉住了他衣服的下襬。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaY3in1Vuyv
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJjJAZpOxB
但兩名侍女並沒有注意到，只是自顧自的爭吵著。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHNsx03yVW
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMTRblKCxL
「妳怎麼沒有陪在小姐的身邊！？」年紀較大的侍女責備著另一位看起來較年輕的。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzoUJ2LvG0
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcx0tZByZe
「她……她不讓我陪……」面對這嚴厲的指責，她只是哀怨的反駁。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOLpXNtx6J
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡve6GHhl4Ud
「她不讓妳陪妳就不陪呀！？那她要妳吃大便妳要不要吃？這工作給妳是做什麼的？就是要妳隨時注意小姐的身體狀況呀！真是……」一直罵著。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1qztVrRDk
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaOI5JIHIF
罵著罵著，她們便準備要帶女孩離開。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvig5fwZPp
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6uhacAjbt
「好了，小姐趕快起來吧！去把自己弄乾換個衣服！」老侍女伸手去拉倒在水裡的小女孩。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGAkzxhxwN
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZ19AWqy2t
女孩將她的手揮開。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMp4PoevUoz
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzs7iSfNDqp
「妳！小姐！快起來呀！會感冒的！」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7Dzxb0ODb
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aFeFrCGO6
「我……我不要。」呼吸總算恢復順暢，斷斷續續的開口。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiyGzWrKJF
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtn5p7ozey
「小姐，算我求妳了，妳若感冒了我會很慘的呀……」年輕的侍女苦苦哀求。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdfVo8fxm5
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmCsRsYc8c
「我不要……我不要妳陪我。」女孩嬌聲的說著。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvn9FYJkP2
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatumzUd9vN
「好！好！我們等等馬上幫妳換個侍女！趕快起來吧！」老侍女緊張的說著。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcRi76JXXL
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNevDmP9JvV
「不是！我要他陪我！」抓著孟言的手晃呀晃的，讓這兩名侍女注意到了那衣服的下襬被女孩緊緊的抓著「如果你們不答應我就不起來！」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtakf79CEn4
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgP4YDUPta
面對這樣的威脅，她們傻眼了。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJBZxq5Vn8
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kIzH1BjZh
「怎、怎麼可以！小姐，他可是……可是低賤的奴隸呀！」老侍女已經急得跳腳了。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4SEoWpipl
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz32gQuMovn
「我不管！」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwX9Iffr2Q
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQONWbiyW5e
她們就這樣盧著，持續了好一段時間，孟言只是無言的看著，不太清楚發生了甚麼事，身為奴隸的自己又不太敢吭聲，只好任他們這樣吵，而好奇提個水怎麼這麼久的前輩前來觀看也被嚇了一大跳，只好默默的自己將那三桶水提回去。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6Iy7TSthK
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHH19usQKFh
「我就是要他陪我！他剛剛救了我！我要他陪我玩！我不要無聊的侍女！」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXpdXw9sZ5
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ906oQVHkuw
「小姐……」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0A8y11w4Fw
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgixYH2pxf
「小姐不要鬧好不好……？」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUm5mxfucg
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9XADD0C6J
「我不管！我不管！」鬧著脾氣，女孩不斷踢著水，濺了不少水花在侍女身上。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboH4feeYch
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYQG7UCClM
「好了！好了！我答應妳！好不好？趕快起來！」也許是坳不過了，老侍女總算答應。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIsGY4RZLYl
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3f1FmuNrsR
聽著，女孩開心的起身，抓著孟言準備上岸。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAh3DqjYoT
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1lq3QypAZ
「怎麼！？怎麼可以！那我怎麼辦？」年輕侍女也急了。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEHRb9N4qi
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfHHwJ8a7r
「放心，照顧小姐的事還是妳做，這小子只負責陪她，但不准進她的房間，而且你也要負責指導這小子一些事宜。」老侍女穩重的說著。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpynrcHXjNk
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9ETEGzhIs
另一位侍女聽了鬆一口氣。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TAltnKO0R
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFf667Hrkn
女孩被拉上岸後，孟言被抓著的衣角突然被扯下「小子，算你走運，不然你很可能要被打五十大板的！明天！你明天再來找我們，我們會安排你新的住所，回去打包打包吧！」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaRrS4IIER
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreLytwuBXE
還在驚嚇中的孟言，一回過神，便馬上拔腿奔回茶園去了。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEqA1bhs6k
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCMv5JBXaG
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPmwG5OpkT
『這是真的嗎？』這晚，孟言坐在自己的床褥上想著。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhkdpPCwu5
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMSktJLkwe
這消息已經傳開了，他的阿嬤並沒有因此難過，反而很開心，比平常多抓了三十隻蟲子。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHyThy9x6G
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNHNenxpzO
但想到阿嬤，孟言反而難過了，畢竟要把她一個人孤身的丟在這裡，很擔心那號稱健壯的身子能撐多久……339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElTmOD2oXr
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtR9o5Fsvyc
「小子，還沒睡？」前輩問著。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9e3yvPIOlF
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYKUV5hR1n
「睡不著。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVex5deFCja
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9Zz0fvUVU
「……小子，你知道嗎？我很羨慕你，為了沾你的運，我決定我要搶走妳照顧阿嬤的特權，現在你一無所有了，所以也沒甚麼好煩惱的，趕快睡吧！明天你的工作我也搶去了，放心的去吧！」說著，前輩便倒頭睡去。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCWGSMmiFF
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqd4Cpf2MO
孟言感動的看著他，不知道該謝什麼，所以也只好睡了……339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGUiKrZhKk
＊ ＊ ＊ ＊ ＊ ＊ ＊ ＊ ＊
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLmoSzlu3k
陽光普照，孟言將行李放在新的住處後便跟著那位侍女學著許多東西，不久便得知了自己的身分從『奴隸』躍升為『奴僕』，要學的東西不多，只是要會一些禮節，還要懂得把自己打扮的體面，除此之外沒什麼困難，只要小姐一發病就馬上通知他們並且進行急救。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXgQKG0pjs
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtZUjxn4Pq
今天的孟言，相當的不孟言！339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwEZEMgOzR
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdh2Fz8iBet
他坐在一個大庭院旁的小石階上，等著小姐，聽侍女說，下午小姐只要讀完該讀的書便會到這玩耍，到時只要乖乖陪她便是。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQZxe6LNzj
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYAnIsUsri
但這段時間若有什麼差錯，就是他的責任。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMaW75Dvtz
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzskL0YPVM
在等待期間有時會有其他侍女經過，看著他都會交頭接耳的不知道說著什麼，想必是貶低的話吧！339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyox0o2OIj
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPqk31yZWC
無聊！於是孟言拿出了書來讀……339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12ZWk6U53X
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMJ87DqJ0S
「咦！對吼！」他想起了那書早在昨天掉進水裡了，墨都糊掉了……反正也找不到。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW30djqudux
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRP5B4qzYb
所以他只能默默的看著在庭院裡跳來跳去的麻雀發呆。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmJhsE4nsP
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcngSVltQdG
『噠！噠！噠！噠！』腳步聲朝這走來。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTZ1wLDQo9
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm96BkOcDa9
孟言看去，是那個小女孩，她抱著新的球，有點害羞的從不知名的地方過來。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGreo8IKV0
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcT3NbmQcqo
「妳好。」孟言其實是第一次跟女孩子相處，有點緊張。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiMonvjVjb
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqifvMMEKO
『不知道把她當成男孩子來相處好不好？』想到這裡，又發現自己也沒交過什麼男性朋友，從小到大真正相處的只有阿嬤而已，因此，他又更緊張了。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PfC3FSpwQ
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcp4qdbzrS
「你是對面那邊的人嗎？」女孩突然提出這個問題。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXmAHzt8QI
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRoxEoWh4R
「嗯？」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTwD4gldcD
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtUKbqccga
「河對面……」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmYo1StGw5
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVfZphbMN3
「嗯、嗯，對呀。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPTHz1ktwX
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWUNJ7sjj6
「為什麼？」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BE7C5Hp6F
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtL0r7TdmIn
「啊？」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGb1l2Rfnxo
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchFYxeaejZ
「為什麼會在那裡？」沒想到這女孩沒有看起來的怕生。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdYre4Cr5t
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1avfxff2ue
「因為在那裡工作。」知道這一點後，回答起來就沒那麼緊繃了。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVuSt30p8z
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84FdzZM0ez
「為什麼大家都討厭你們？」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQgst9q8Yq
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPXE4yMY8h
「因為我們工作都會髒兮兮的，他們喜歡乾淨。」孟言有點尷尬。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFeRZGFv5B
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8V826OK2XY
「他們好無聊喔！」女孩在他身邊坐下。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjwwjcR5Rf
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzpKAyoAvF
「嗯……」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJ1lcvKyMD
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmCwIJbave
「你知道嗎！這裡全部都是大人耶！那個謝阿斗每次書都不認真讀，害我都要一個人來這裡玩！他超討厭的，我不喜歡跟他玩！」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1k39p0gSdT
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UMlzHZHZ1
「謝……阿斗？」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsZubbsYym
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRxJdxdQkm
「他並不是真的叫阿斗，但他真的好笨喔！比阿斗還笨！哈哈哈哈……」說著這個人的壞話，女孩開心的笑著，那是銀鈴般的笑聲，聽起來相當舒服。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAobGwgntT
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIGJ9NDNtQ
「嗯……」不知該回應什麼，所以隨便帶過。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXFnyvjtJd
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbZa2PtJka
「你多大呀？」那明眸的雙眼打量著。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1KdrAdkuJ
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPMVpZuaRC
「……十歲。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6l2PuNl6uO
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5gPuKft57
「大我兩歲！你看起來跟我差不多耶！」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFREKcUoH3
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZM6ILOLnm
也許是吃不好的關係，孟言的身形以他的年紀來說的確小了點。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKq8wacWCc
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSHdM7hm4l
「那你叫什麼名字？」雙手擺弄著球。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlZwGFewky
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77xzL6obpJ
「簡……我姓簡，名孟言。」如果陪這女孩只是要一直回答問題的話，孟言有點放心。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdB71M5Owf
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDXLWzHaqT
「我叫陳千惠。」女孩的禮數似乎比他還要糟糕。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZzNRTCMhS
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMFKwArDl4
陳千惠……姓陳？339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYKEZZNIYv
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJertS0VYVn
「妳不是這家的大小姐嗎？」他記得這宅子是謝家的，如果消息來源沒錯的話。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOtQIYFVB4

「不是呀！」回答得理所當然。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEfR2AY8H1
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqfAXhhVdW
「那妳是……嗯……？」孟言看著千惠身上華麗的服飾以及嬌滴滴的臉蛋。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXgJxH42Jn
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Q7xrspHf6
「嗯……我也不太清楚，我只知道有時大肥仔會稱我為『童養媳(註一)』。」面對這有點複雜的問題，以這年紀來說只能說到這樣了。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGy1nNJqaiU
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18QNxemAAT
『童養媳……好像聽過。』孟言在回憶裡搜尋著，過去某個鄰居裡好像也有這樣的小孩。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCWfJK4V3x
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3J4bYbY2t
「你剛剛在這都在做什麼？」女孩靠了過來，好奇的問著。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfi2jfOOkK
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxHJobf6J0
「嗯……沒做什麼。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjaPXw1M2g
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ToPiOC23f
「不會無聊嗎？」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6FwXdXMui
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCkY4tiaKZ
「會呀。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0r8ZB7pE8Q
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQWXOzTeRf
「那為什麼不找事情做？像我都會玩球！」說著說著，又繼續把玩著球。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixfLaiEwS7
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6shVqmwcbl
孟言看著，笑一笑「平常我無聊是會拿書出來讀，但我的書在昨天掉進水裡了。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUsKILO0xW
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpVuFmaKXv
「是喔！沒關係呀！我去拿一本給你！是什麼書啊？」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHmlnyaZCf
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmwoWd7W0p
「嗯……這樣好嗎？」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYjXHRwCRl
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8lpoHfiIW
「不要緊啦！家裡書多的像山一樣，如果少一本我也輕鬆，快說是哪一本！？」瞧她興奮的，讓孟言不自覺雀躍了起來。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbgq7LO5zP
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlX0IypT360
「好吧！我記得是……宋詞選的樣子。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5k4UxTYNS
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ruzvZQAsu
一說完，千惠便把球交給他，起身衝進宅子裡了。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJTw4KQfkM
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67jAvbGU4z
握著溫溫的皮球，想著昨天刺破了一顆，今天又有一顆，不愧是有錢人家。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡly1UhwON1k
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOVwGaH0Pv
接著他突然想起了童養媳是怎麼回事了！339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0NQsbQQFU
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1A8Uh9wkjj
這時女孩剛好回來。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsZ0ZiKtLZ
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHgLTGpFoF
「嗯！給你！」她雙手裡拿著一本嶄新的『宋詞選』。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblm8q51nLr
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7ZRyCipLF
「哇！好新喔！如果我唸完了我一定還妳！」孟言開心的接下，小心翼翼的翻著。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveA8ChBPJN
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoSRcnbznx
除了外表之外，書的內容完全一模一樣，使他相當的興奮，於是馬上想朗誦一首詞來，但突然忘記怎麼唸了！339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvxATZBqAv
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWkd4Wx7jJ
「怎麼了？」千惠嘟著嘴問著，深怕自己拿錯了書。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJsvzHvET5
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHN1Aj5x2T
「啊！？不是……沒事，只是……」孟言感到有點丟臉。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FRMkrF0bH
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalfdTdGZV7
「說呀！」性格爽闊的女孩突然一個伸手，捏了他的手皮！339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHesFtNCZzI
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNycIZHZhtH
「痛呀！」痛的他差點跳起來了。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpgC8awJTH
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SLhGeqD5a
「快說！」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94JxPRqIrN
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIgFVJHpgS
「好、好、好……就是……」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQ0P2z0my5
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjzp0czMx2
「嗯！？」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvn31KefLtH
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVt2XuWw0G
千惠好奇的雙眼逼著孟言脫口。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitq5CmHZbf
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiq4LymkPK
「我看不懂了……」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUuJD7PFJg
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1UMRMI7Hv
「啥！？」這對她來說大概有點難理解吧？339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUob4VPuJIU
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwngaaixmxq
「我……忘記這些字怎麼唸了。」說好聽點是這樣。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xfwxVL19u
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSjeDc5SRL
「為什麼？」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2ixCkFCoL
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRNk3jdNOL
「因為……最近都在工作，忘光光了……嘿嘿嘿……」說的非常心虛。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOcaWwe06F
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPR26SFq45
雙手撐著，千惠直直的望著他，眼珠沽溜溜的轉「好！」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3L1Pb4Wqnc
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvl2H5Cu41
「啊？」孟言完全搞不懂。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyhdy1G83R
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1ErcLVDm0
「我教你！我來教你唸書！」女孩的眼神相當堅定，嘴角微笑著，露出可人的酒窩。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvV3TzU2jx
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPx3gg7JgG8
「真的嗎！？」他受寵若驚，不可置信這是真的。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4xzCBL1SE
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd25mAMFiai
「嗯！打勾勾！」千惠笑容滿面的將孟言的手拿起，擅自打勾勾了。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqs51I9WIcz
