Qing Yatou made the bed for Fang Yanqing, put the hot soup woman into the cover, helped Fang Yan warm the quilt in advance, and turned her head to see Fang Yanqing sitting on the stool in a daze, staring at the ground with blank eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Girl, Sister Min's matter, you have done your best. Qing girl said slowly, tears lingered, "It's just that we were sold by people to be girls, and our lives have long been out of our own way." ”

"Who said I... I can't protect others, but I can protect you. Fang Yan spoke in a hoarse voice, suddenly raised his head, and looked at Qing Yatou with burning eyes, "I want to escape." ”

The voice was very soft, and the Qing girl hurriedly looked outside, listening to the fact that it was still quiet outside, before she looked at Fang Yanqing, stepped forward, and asked, "Because of Sister Min's business?"

"It's just an introduction, I'm really angry in my heart," Fang Yanqing reached out and wiped the tears on the girl's face, "I just have this idea now, let's talk to you first, don't panic." ”

"I'm not afraid, I'm not panicking, it's just that the girl is going to pick me up, I'll follow the girl and serve the girl. Qing girl said.

"And what about your house?"

"I don't have a home, where the girl is, my home is. Qing girl said, helping Fang Yanqing up, "Girl, you better go to bed and think about things, otherwise you will get frostbite again." ”

Getting into the bedding nest, the girl compacted the gaps on both sides of Fang Yanqing's shoulders, and then went out with the oil lamp. Fang Yanqing stared at the head of the bed, couldn't sleep again, tossed and turned over several times, found a comfortable direction, nested on his side, and curled up into shrimp. In the past few days, the boundless sunshine on the Wei family's side, the boundless haze on the aunt's side, and the environment on both sides of the country have made me only sigh at this annoyance, and the annoyed people are uneasy.

What kind of world can there be no oppression, so that the so-called dignity and humility can dissipate, and I suddenly want to go to Lin'an to see, just like the idea of escaping, it comes inexplicably. I should have been as bright as them, but I pretended to be sad between my eyebrows, pretending to be obedient, and doing such a rule.

Today's aunt should be regarded as a warning to herself, the marriage is undecided, and she often goes out, presumably because she sees it in her heart, and her heart is not smooth, and her uncle often does not return home, and it makes sense to sprinkle his anger on himself, not to mention that he touched her moldy head.

It was another sunny day, and the sunny girl came back from outside, looking at Fang Yanqing, who was basking in the sun and embroidering flowers on the deck chair in the yard, she couldn't help but open her mouth, "The girl is not going out today?"

"Where's the Min girl?" Fang Yanqing held the gold thread in his hand, and was embroidering the golden longevity peach on the black cloth, and the tip of the needle was against the cotton cloth and picked it up, and finished it.

When the girl heard Fang Yanqing's question, she lowered her voice suddenly, and her expression became depressed, "It was locked in the firewood room, and the people were very quiet, and when I went, I heard the mother-in-law who unlocked the lock for me say that I screamed miserably last night, crying and howling, and now I may have no strength, so I calmed down." When I went into the house, Sister Min was sitting on the ground, and when she saw me coming, she just glanced at me lightly, her voice was very hoarse, and she smiled at me, "

Halfway through the conversation, she shed tears first, "I gave her what you gave me, girl, she only said that she didn't need it, and said, she wrote down the girl's kindness, the girl has always been a kind person, but her life is not good, and she can't complain about others, and then she got married, maybe she won't worry about food and clothing, these will not be used in the future, and let me help her return a thing, let me send this to her hometown, and say goodbye in the next life." ”

The needle in Fang Yanqing's hand suddenly pierced his hand, and red blood beads appeared, looking at the pierced hand, he said in a loud voice, "That's what she said?"

"Well, the thing was given back to me. Qing Yatou took out the brocade bag she was holding in her hand, "It's a wooden doll with Sister Min's small characters written on it." ”

Fang Yanqing suddenly felt a little dizzy in his head, and stood up on the small table next to him, the words were clearly said by the dying man, as if he was explaining the aftermath, I hope he thought too much.

Seeing Fang Yanqing get up, Qing Yatou hurriedly stretched out her hand to help, "Girl, what's wrong?"

"Go to the firewood room and see Min Yatou. Fang Yanqing put down the needle and thread in his hand, walked out of the courtyard door, and only walked a few steps to the firewood house when he heard an exclamation. The girl also understood at this moment, and stood still holding the dialect.

Min Yatou was knotted with her clothes, mated with firewood, and hung herself on the beams of the house, and the things behind this were handled quite quickly, and she hurriedly called the people from Min Yatou's hometown, and wrapped it in a straw mat, but she didn't lose Tang Yiyun's original words, and gave people dozens of taels of silver. That thing was given to Min Yatou by Qing Yatou, and I heard Qing Yatou say that they originally planned to get married as soon as Min Yatou's construction period arrived next year, but I didn't expect people to be as good as the sky.

It was a little colder this day, and most of the leaves on the tree were yellow, adding a lot of autumn breeze and gloom, and the day after Min Yatou died, Tang Yiyun quickly cut through the mess, and packed the late spring and sent it to the second uncle in order to prevent regeneration.

Fang Yanqing straightened up the armor on his body, nested at home for several days, and finally passed these days tightly, only after lunch, Fang Yanqing thought about going out, and called the girl to see a Ding Sanniang in the middle, it turned out that Ding Sanniang was not in good health these days, and he was accompanied by decoction every day, so he couldn't go out.

On the 27th of Yukang, Fang Yanqing looked at the somewhat dilapidated door in front of him that was eaten by ants, gently pinched the door buckle, and buckled the door three times.

The trees on the edge of the yard grow tall, and the branches are stretched out, this yard is not big, it is not small, it is really good to be able to say it in the middle, seeing that no one opened the door, the dialect was about to knock on the door three more times, and saw that the door was squeaked and opened.

Ding Sanniang was dressed plainly, a pale cyan cheongsam, no patterns, no hair, lightly draped behind her, looking at Fang Yanqing standing at the door, obviously a little surprised, it took a long time to find her voice, "Girl, why did you come here?"

"I haven't seen Sanniang for a long time, I was worried, and I brought some fruit to Sanniang, which I just bought at the stall outside, fresh. Fang Yanqing said with a soft smile.

Ding Sanniang opened the door and welcomed Fang Yanqing in, although Fang Yanqing was carrying fruit in his hand, he was not as much fruit as Qing Yatou was carrying. As soon as you enter the door, there is an empty courtyard, and a large house opposite is the main house, which is burning incense, and white turbidity gently floats in the air.

"I also said that I would clean up and go to the school to see the girl, but I didn't expect the girl to come first. Ding Sanniang said with a smile on her face.

"That's right, I'll go to the school with Sanniang later," put the fruit on the round table, only to see Sanniang boiling medicine next to it, and the charcoal fire was placed underneath, now it's okay, the heat lifted the lid, Ding Sanniang picked up the gauze handkerchief next to him and wrapped it in a small pot handle, and poured it into the medicine bowl, Fang Yanqing looked at the black medicinal juice, and couldn't help squinting a little, really looking at it and feeling very bitter.

The curtain on the side seems to be a big shelf, Fang Yanqing curiously stacked two steps to the side, and saw the Buddha statue hidden behind the curtain, with three plates of tribute in front of him, and incense. After looking at it, Ding Sanniang picked up an ebony hairpin and turned it around her hair a few times, then pulled her hair, picked up the Chinese medicine, and drank it one by one.

Ding Sanniang's traditional Chinese medicine should be drunk often, and he didn't even blink, and after drinking, Fang Yanqing hurriedly came over with a watery fragrant pear, sat on a chair on the side, looked at Ding Sanniang, and said with concern, "Eat a pear to relieve suffering." ”

Ding Sanniang took the pear and smiled, this pear should have been washed, and there were water droplets on the outside, he opened his mouth lightly and took a bite, and swallowed the flesh with the juice.

"The girl's owe is with me, knowing that I won't speak of you. Ding Sanniang looked at Fang Yanqing's movements and laughed.

Qing Yatou also sat next to Fang Yanqing, picked off a few grapes and ate them.

"What's the matter? But there's something on my mind that I want to talk to. Ding Sanniang also sat down, chewing the fruit in her mouth, and asked softly.

Fang Yanqing felt a little embarrassed at the moment, Ding Sanniang was still sick, and she still ran to say that she was unhappy, Ding Sanniang knew that Fang Yanqing was a little twisted now, so she spoke first.

"I also heard about the affairs of your house, and it is normal to send the girl to the second uncle over there, to sell face, and to cause less trouble," before he finished speaking, he saw Fang Yanqing raise his head and continue to speak, "I know that you feel uncomfortable, after all, it is a human life, but in the eyes of many people, a human life is not a life, and you should know it." ”

"I know, that's why it's unbearable. Fang Yanqing said in a panic, "I just didn't dare to think about it, I just didn't dare to think about it in the future, and I mediated between the affairs of my in-laws every day, I was very disgusted in my heart, and I felt very unbearable, I... I suddenly felt like a coward. ”

These words, Fang Yanqing even refused to say them to his mother, and now he said them to Ding Sanniang, completely because he trusted Ding Sanniang very much in his heart, so many people, he just dared to confide in Ding Sanniang.

After speaking, she gnawed a few mouthfuls of pears angrily, and there was only one kernel for the already small pear, Qing Yatou took the fruit plate next to her, took the kernel in Fang Yanqing's hand, and handed over the handkerchief that was put aside, Fang Yanqing said thank you softly, took the handkerchief and wiped her hands, and smiled, "Don't hide it from Sanniang, I didn't pretend to be so unbearable in the past two years, but after they came, I couldn't stand it anymore." ”

Ding Sanniang wiped her hands, grabbed Fang Yanqing's shoulder, patted Fang Yanqing's back, and said slowly, "I understand, I know, this person can bear it, but as long as she has seen the good, she knows how unbearable the bad is, and I don't blame you." After a moment of silence, Sanniang suddenly said, "You shouldn't stay here, you should go far." ”

Fang Yanqing looked at Ding Sanniang, Ding Sanniang's lips were still a little white, she looked very weak, she covered her mouth with a brocade and coughed a few times, and Zhengse said to Fang Yanqing, "Girl, I know what you want, but you have to leave here with dignity." ”
