Li Erjia was a little unhappy when he heard this: "It's about to get dark, where are you going?"

Li Er said impatiently: "I'll go to Yang Lao Liu to talk about something." ”

"Yang Lao Liu, oh! It's the ...... who works in the yamen" Li Erjia looked up and saw Li Er's gaze at Xiao Mu and finally understood, Li Er wanted to go to Yang Lao Liu to inquire about it, to see if he could find out the origin of Xiao Mu, Li Er's family didn't say anything more.

Xiao Mu's eyelashes twitched slightly when he heard the words "errand in the yamen", but he never raised his eyes, just sat there quietly eating with his head down.

Li Guo'er ate what was in her mouth, and suddenly thought of something: "Mother, I want to eat sugar gourd after eating." ”

Li Erjia responded casually: "I will collect it for you, and I will eat it tomorrow!"

Li Guo'er pouted and was unhappy, and when he stuffed the last piece of big fat in the bowl into his mouth, he climbed off the stool and wanted to go out.

Li Erjia hurriedly said, "Why are you going?"

Li Guo'er said as she ran out: "I'm full, go and see if the sugar gourd has been stolen by mice." ”

Li Erjia hurriedly said to Xiao Mu: "Go and watch him, don't let him climb the cupboard and fall." ”

Xiao Mutou obediently put down the general coarse steamed bun in his hand, and also got off the table to find Li Guo'er.

As soon as the two children left, Li Erjia asked in a low voice, "Can Yang Lao Liu inquire about it?"

Li Er drank all the wine in the cup, and motioned for Li Er's family to fill it again: "Although Yang Lao Liu is just a servant, he is well-informed." If there is no problem with this little cub, if there is a problem, he will definitely be able to inquire. ”

The Li family filled the wine glass for Li Er, and said worriedly: "What do you think the origin of the little wood can be?"

Li Er smacked his lips and thought for a while: "Look at him, he is definitely not an ordinary baby, he looks like a young master from a scholar's family." I heard that Yang Lao Liu said that a while ago, the imperial court had just dealt with a few high-ranking officials who collaborated with the enemy and treason, and many people were involved, and this little cub's family may have something to do with this matter. ”

Li Erjia was shocked: "Ah, we killed a lot of people in the first place! If this is the case, will we be implicated?"

Li Er smiled disapprenosingly: "If Xiao Mu is really a child of a criminal official who was hidden, we would have made a fortune." As long as you send people to the yamen, you can get at least twenty taels of silver. ”

Li Erjia's eyes immediately lit up after hearing this: "Twenty taels!" But after being happy, she was a little worried. "But if the guy who sent him here asks me for someone, how can we explain to him?"

Li Er sneered: "Confess? Lao Tzu sent him to the yamen to confess! Harboring the son of a criminal, he still wants to ask us to confess? It's really boring!"

Li Erjia thought about it and felt that it was too. If there's something really wrong with the little wood. Knowing that they sent the little wood to the official, the man would definitely not dare to come to trouble them again, Li Erjia said happily: "In this case, it would be better if he came, let's tie him up and send him to the official office, and it will be twenty taels of silver!"

Over there. Xiao Mu stopped Li Guo'er, who was about to climb up the cupboard: "Don't go up." The sugar gourd was not eaten by rats. ”

Li Guo'er looked at it on tiptoe. "But what if the rat sees it?" he said worriedly, "I'm going to hide it somewhere else." ”

Xiao Mu said: "Rats can be found hidden elsewhere, and if you guard here, rats will not dare to come." ”

Li Guoer's imagination makes sense. He obediently sat down on the small bench in the stove room, staring at the cupboard without blinking.

Little Wood stood in the stove room for a while, and then left quietly.

The Li family had dinner in the East Room in the summer, and Xiao Mu stopped in front of the door of the main room and stood quietly for a while, listened to the movement inside for a while, and then quietly entered the West House.

The west house is the bedroom of Li Er and his wife, Xiao Mu walked straight to the dresser and looked at it, and then took a box of rouge that Li Er's family just bought today. As soon as he had finished taking his things, the little wood withdrew from the Westroom.

The husband and wife who were discussing a plan to make a fortune with twenty taels of silver on the east side did not notice the movement here.

Xiao Mu returned to the stove room, and Li Guo'er was still sitting under the cupboard, staring at his sugar gourd seriously.

Xiao Mu walked over and said to Li Guo'er: "I found a big ant nest in the alley today, do you want to go and see it?"

Li Guo'er was immediately attracted to attention: "How big, I want to catch a bottle of ants and raise it, can they fill a wine jug?"

Xiao Mu shook his head: "I don't know, I haven't caught it." ”

Li Guo'er glanced at Xiao Mu with disgust: "You are so stupid, then let's go and take a look." But what about my sugar gourd?"

Xiao Mu said: "When the rat comes, it will eat the following things first, and your sugar gourd will be left for the last to eat." Little Wood pointed to the oil jar and a small bag of white rice on the lower floor of the cupboard.

So Li Guoer was persuaded and went out of the yard with Xiao Mu.

Li Guoer squatted at the mouth of the alley not far from her door to find an ant nest, while Xiao Mu stood in front of the door and watched Li Guoer from a distance, listening carefully to the movements in the yard.

It didn't take long for Li Er and his wife to finish eating, and Xiao Mu heard Li Er's family inside: "Go early and come back early! ”

Xiao Mu looked at Li Guo'er and found that he was lying at the mouth of the alley and poking the ant hole seriously, only revealing the tip of his small buttocks, and did not look this way. Xiao Mu ran to the house diagonally opposite the door and knocked on the door, and when he heard footsteps coming out, he put the box of rouge in his hand at the door, and then quickly ran to the mouth of the alley where Li Guoer was.

Li Guo'er turned around and saw Xiao Mu, and was about to speak, Xiao Mu made a silent gesture and whispered: "There is an ant king here, don't make a noise and be careful to scare it away." ”

Li Guo'er's eyes lit up, nodded, and carefully climbed over to look at the ant king that Xiao Mu said.

The door diagonally opposite the Li family squeaked open, and the pretty daughter-in-law walked out, seeing that no one outside the door thought that someone was teasing him and was about to cross his waist and curse, he saw the box of rouge on the ground in front of the door and picked it up happily.

At this time, the door of the Li family opened, and Li Er, who still had some alcohol on his body, walked out.

As soon as the pretty daughter-in-law saw Li Er, she flew over, raised the rouge in her hand towards him, licked her lips, and then twisted her waist into her yard, but the courtyard door was deliberately not closed.

Li Ergang drank some wine, the wine was not gone, and he was hooked by this pretty daughter-in-law, and when he looked back, he saw that his daughter-in-law had already packed up the dishes and chopsticks and entered the stove room, so he gently closed the door of his house, and then anxiously drilled into the pretty daughter-in-law's house diagonally opposite the door.

Li Guoer didn't find the ant king in Xiao Mutou's mouth everywhere, and was about to look up to ask, but happened to see his father Li Er enter the pretty daughter-in-law's house at the opposite door.

Li Guoer said curiously: "What is my father doing at the little widow's house?"

Xiao Mu said lightly: "Send rouge." ”

Li Guo'er let out a stupid "oh", and then asked, "What about the ant king you are talking about?" ”

Xiao Mu said, "Maybe I've got into an ant hole." ”

In the end, Li Guoer grabbed a small cloth bag of ants and went home with Xiao Mu satisfied.

Li Erjia washed Li Guo'er's face and hands, asked Xiao Mu to pour the water, and slapped a palm on Li Guo'er's head: "You debt collector! Look at your dirty body, look at other people! Go to sleep by yourself for a while, and then wet the bed and let your father beat you!" said and said to himself, "I don't know when your father will come back today......

Li Guo'er, who was playing with her fingers, replied casually: "Mother is so stupid! Shout in the yard and come back, he is at the little widow's house opposite the door." ”

Li Erjia's hand to undress Li Guo'er, the expression on his face instantly distorted: "What did you say, where is your father?"

Li Guo'er looked up and was startled, and immediately struggled out of his mother's arms and hid away.

Li Erjia pointed at Li Guo'er: "Say, where did your father go!"

Li Guo'er immediately said: "Dad went to send rouge to the little widow!"

Li Erjia stood up and ran out in a hurry, first went to the Westinghouse to take a look, and found that the rouge he bought today was really gone, and after scolding a dirty word, he rushed into the stove room with a distorted face, and after a while, he came out with a kitchen knife, and then ran out in a hurry.

The little wooden man, who was fetching water and washing his face by the well in the yard, looked up, and lowered his head to wash his face seriously. Li Guoer quietly poked her head out of the house and asked, "What did my mother do?"

Xiao Mu said, "You should go to bed, so that you can eat your sugar gourd when you wake up tomorrow morning." ”

Li Guo'er, who had no heart and no lungs, thought about it, and immediately ran back to her bed happily and closed her eyes, wanting to come quickly tomorrow.

At the same time, a woman's scream suddenly came from the opposite courtyard, followed by another woman's vicious curses, chasing, the sound of things being smashed, and the low scolding of a man. Many people around opened their doors and ran out to see the excitement when they heard the movement, and the whole alley was lively.

After washing his face and hands, Xiao Mu entered the house where Xiao Mu slept and lay down next to Li Guo'er, Li Guo'er opened her eyes and asked in a daze, "What's going on outside?"

Xiao Mu closed his eyes and ignored it, and Li Guo'er, who had been playing around for a day, fell asleep by herself not long after.

After Li Guo'er fell asleep, Xiao Mu broke open his eyes, he got out of bed quietly, turned out a coarse cloth from the cabinet, and then found the clothes he wore when he came to Li's house and was later put away by Li's family, and then ran to the stove room to find a few coarse noodles and steamed buns in the storage cupboard of Li Er's house that were left over from dinner and intended to be kept for tomorrow morning.

Xiao Mu wrapped the clothes and steamed buns in a coarse cloth, and after a long time of turning over and over again, he finally came up with a slightly more similar baggage.

With tears in his eyes, he continued to beg for votes...... T-T.
