Ji Manli laughed breathlessly, and Mai Xiaoji rolled her eyes hard.

Playing tricks on himself three times and twice, that is, relying on the master's good temper. Mai Xiaoji was faintly worried, when the task was completed, the car should be sent for overhaul, no matter how good the car was, it couldn't withstand Ji Manli's toss.

What a crazy woman!

In the afternoon, a village appeared in front of him, and Mai Xiaoji asked Ji Manli to stop the car far away, and the two walked there.

As he was walking, he saw a couple in ragged clothes, carrying two children in a basket and staggering in front. Mai Xiaoji gave Ji Manli a look, and was about to step forward to ask for directions, but heard the man shouting weakly: "Is there anyone buying?

What to sell?

Mai Xiaoji scratched his head, and at this moment, the woman with a haggard look and red and swollen eyes pulled the man, and the man whispered with tears in his eyes: "If you don't sell them, you and I will starve to death!"

It's actually a child to sell?

A family with a seemingly large yard stared at the basket, and the couple seemed to see hope, so they hurriedly picked it up, bent down and asked, "Would you like to buy this child?"

"How much is the bid?" asked the seated man, his sleeves curled.

"The male baby will be rewarded with some silver taels at will, and the female baby will only ask for bags of food. The man sneered.

"The boy bought it with silver, and this girl also has to exchange it for a bag of grain, why don't you go and grab it?" The person who asked the price was dissatisfied, picked up his small wooden stool and entered the yard, and then closed the door, and complained that the couple was not really asking for too high a price.

The two children seemed to be used to it, they didn't cry or make trouble, and they looked at the adults in tears.

After asking around, no one wanted to buy it, and another family asked him if he would buy it, and there were many young daughters in the family who ate and drank for nothing. Hey, this situation and this scene made Mai Xiaoji deeply touched, as soon as he came here, he saw that poverty and backwardness, food and clothing can destroy a home, can make people hard-hearted, and then separate flesh and blood.

The couple couldn't sell it, so they had to carry the basket to the entrance of the village to see if they could try their luck elsewhere.

Mai Xiaoji chased a few steps, hugged his fists and said: "This big brother, I am from out of town, how can I live so depressed, to the point of selling my own flesh and blood?"

Hey, as the man spoke, he burst into tears, shook his head and said: "The war is in chaos, the family produces strong men, the family has no surplus food, and they can't support themselves, and if they are sold, they can still let their children have a way to live, otherwise wouldn't they starve to death together?"

As he spoke, the man's body shook and he almost fell, and he had been hungry for an unknown amount of time. Mai Xiaoji sighed, pretended to flip through the bag, took out two strips of meat from the storage, and handed over a few breads together.

The man was stunned for only two seconds, hurriedly wiped his hands with his clothes, took it, stuffed it into the woman, and desperately stuffed it into his mouth after saying thank you. The woman was too busy stuffing it into her mouth, but she chewed it up and fed it to the young girl.

I don't know what the bread is, but when they smell the aroma, the couple still put it away like babies.

If Nangong Yue sees this scene, she will definitely be moved to tears. At least women are not patriarchal and are willing to give the first bite to their younger daughters.

Mai Xiaoji took out another ingot of silver and put it in the man's hand, he was so excited that he was about to kneel down with a whimper in his mouth, Mai Xiaoji hurriedly helped him up, "Big brother, don't be polite." ”

"Nobleman, from now on, these two babies will make you cows and horses!" the man said with tears in his eyes.

The woman also bowed down with tears in her eyes to thank her, looking at Mai Xiaoji's fine skin and tender meat, and her hand was generous, and the two children would not suffer if they followed him. Mai Xiaoji is not here to do this kind of business, waving his hand and saying: "I am just passing by, and it is a burden to take the child with me." Take the money back, repair the house, do some small business or buy some land, and live a good life. ”

If they were shocked, the couple were stunned, and then they were about to kneel again, Mai Xiaoji supported one, and the other was already kneeling. Stop this, and the other one crawls at his feet.

"Manli!" Mai Xiaoji called, Ji Manli was reluctant to make a move, and the two of them were picked up with a whish, like a puppeteer, stunned and on tiptoe, knowing that they had met a master, they didn't dare to say a word.

"Lightly. Mai Xiaoji frowned, Ji Manli then let go, the couple rubbed their necks, their faces turned red, and the woman couldn't stop coughing.

"Big brother and sister-in-law, don't be afraid, this is my rough and clumsy. Mai Xiaoji introduced, Ji Manli snorted, and did not say anything.

"Where are you going, noble?" the man asked tentatively.

"Hey, life is not good, I have been separated from my family, I have been looking for several years, and I don't know what age it is. Mai Xiaoji said with a sigh.

"I heard that the era has changed again, it seems to be ......" The woman put up a finger to think, or her husband reacted quickly, "It's the first year of Shiguang!"

Mai Xiaoji immediately checked, it is now 424, the Northern Wei Dynasty!

"Noble, do you think you're going northwest?" the man asked.

"Yes, I heard that there are relatives there. McEgie explained.

"Don't do it! Right now, I'm fighting with Rouran, and I'm dying every day, and I can't live. The man kindly persuaded.

Who wants to come to this place, Mai Xiaoji was upset when he thought of the two boxes of cold capsules, but the task had to be completed, and the medicine was handed over to Mulan.

"And further on, where is the nearest big city?" asked McXiaoji.

The strange dialect made the couple a little confused, but knowing that Mai Xiaoji was a good person, they replied according to their understanding: "Fifty miles away from here, there is a city called Baicheng, where nobles can rest." ”

"Big brother, have you ever heard of a person named Mulan?"

After Mai Xiaoji asked, he knew that there was no play when he saw the blank eyes of the two, but he was unwilling to ask again: "It's just a girl, who joined the army for her father." ”

The man smiled innocently, shook his head and said, "How can a woman go to the battlefield, I have never heard of it." ”

"Exactly, let people know, pretending to be a man, you have to die. The woman added.

McEgie was depressed, and it seemed that this inspirational story had not yet been widely circulated during this period. Chirp and chirp, where is Mulan!

Bidding farewell to the couple, Mai Xiaoji and Ji Manli continued to walk, and at dusk, they reached a hill, and the two climbed to the top of the mountain in one go, seeing that the road down the mountain was not too far, and planned to rest after climbing the hill.

The sky began to darken, and when the two passed through a forest, Ji Manli suddenly stopped and said coldly: "Xiao Ji, there is an ambush here!"

Mai Xiaoji pricked up his ears to listen, only to hear the rustling sound from the grass, and frowned slightly. In the night scene, I saw seven or eight people dressed as soldiers lying in the grass, their eyes were all looking at this side, there was no doubt that they were their prey, and they whispered: "Let's go, let's rush over!"

The two quickened their pace and hurried down the hill, but the soldiers sprang out of the grass, each with a short knife in his hand, and looked at them with ill intent.

Fight, don't be afraid, I'm afraid that as soon as you shoot, you will open the killing ring!
