The night was dark, and there was no way forward.

A carriage was galloping on the official road, and it had been replaced by Zijin at the moment.

In the carriage, Jin Yan added a soft pillow behind Liu Yunxiang, and seeing that her face was getting worse and worse, she couldn't help but worry and asked, "Girl, do you want Zijin to stop the car and let you slow down for a while?"

Liu Yunxiang's stomach was tight, and he was nauseous for a while, and the bumpy car made it even more uncomfortable, but he still shook his head when he heard this, "No, let Zijin hurry up." ”

And Aunt Yan was sitting on the side, reciting Buddhist scriptures with her eyes closed. It seems that the four major are empty, and the things of the world have nothing to do with her.

When dawn was approaching, the carriage dared to stop in front of an ancestral hall in the mountains hidden among the layers of trees.

In her current situation, even if she really wants to go north to find someone, she has to give birth to the child before she can hurry. And as soon as she disappears, there must be a lot of people looking for her, and there are several forces in the palace, Dongchang, and the court, so she has to hide first.

And the main reason why she left with Aunt Yan is that here, out of the control of these people, life and death are up to herself, not anyone.

The ancestral hall that Aunt Zhang pointed out to them, the ancestral hall of the Zhang family, is still relatively secret because it is sparsely populated in the mountains and forests. And she can send some things up every once in a while, and when she is about to give birth, they also have a midwife in their village.

Liu Yunxiang got out of the carriage with the help of Jinyan, looked at the ancestral hall in front of him, and said that it was an ancestral hall, which was more like two thatched houses.

"Girl, you wait outside, I'll go inside and clean up. "Beware of the flue.

Remember https://m in a second.

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a bang inside.

The three masters and servants glanced at each other, and Zijin went in with his sword. After turning around inside, he nodded his head.

"Maybe it's a rat or something. ”

Liu Yunxiang couldn't help but get goosebumps, "Then you clean up." ”

Jin Yan smiled, "Yes, the slave knows." ”

This ancestral hall is not dirty and messy, it should be that the Zhang family occasionally comes up to the mountain to worship and clean. There are a lot of spirit cards in the open room at the entrance, and there is a room in the west, and there is a fire kang in it, and Aunt Zhang said that it was for the descendants of the Zhang family who went up to the mountain to hunt for the night.

She handed over the business of the grain shop to Zhang Qi, and many young adults in the village followed him to do it, so they no longer made a living from hunting, and everyone's life was getting better and better.

Zijin went to find dry firewood, burned the kang with smoke, and then cleaned the two rooms inside and outside, spread the bedding on the kang, and waited for the kang to warm up and the smoke dispersed, before letting Liu Yunxiang come in.

There is a shed outside the ancestral hall that is used for cooking.

I haven't been here for a long time, and I don't know if there are any cooking guys inside, so I don't have any hope, but when I went inside, I found that there were all of them, and they were still very ...... Clean.

Could it be that someone has come to the ancestral hall to cook in the past two days?

Without much thought, he took a bag of rice from the carriage and began to cook.

The lunch at noon was simple, a plate of greens, a plate of pastrami slices, and rice.

The west room is warm, and the dining table is placed there, which is also convenient for Liu Yunxiang to eat with them. Although it is shabby, it is much safer to eat here than at home, after all, there are not so many eyeliners outside to stare at their words and deeds.

A few people were eating, and suddenly they heard a cry, like a child's cry, but they couldn't hear it anymore.

"Could it be...... Mouse?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she burst into another cry, first sharp, then whining, as if she was crying so hard that her mouth was covered.

Zijin hurriedly got up and walked towards the place where the sound came, which was an eastern wall, hung with dusty coarse cloth. Zijin opened it with his sword, and there was a secret door behind it.

Zijin glanced back at Liu Yunxiang, and then knocked it with the hilt of his sword.

There was no movement inside, and there was no crying.

Liu Yunxiang coughed dryly, and Chong Zijin said: "Xu heard it wrong, come back." ”

Zijin answered, then turned and walked back, took a few steps, stopped, and continued to stare at the secret door.

After a while, the door slowly opened, and a woman ran out with a child in her arms. And Zijin jumped up and blocked the door.

The woman was panicked and hurriedly begged for mercy: "I beg you to have mercy, I am wandering with my child, and I have nowhere to live, so I have only lived in your ancestral hall for a few days." ”

The child in the woman's arms, no more than seven or eight months old, wept in her arms, as if she were very hungry.

The woman's hair was scattered, obscuring her face, but listening to her voice, it still sounded a little familiar. Liu Yunxiang looked at Jin Yan, who also noticed it, got up and walked towards the woman.

walked up to him, tilted his head to look, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Aunt Li!"

As soon as the woman was excited, she subconsciously wanted to flee, but was blocked by Zijin.

"Don't hide, we've all seen it. Jin Yan said helplessly.

On the same day, this Aunt Li killed Xie Zixuan and fled with the child, Liu Yunxiang did not fall into the well for the sake of the child.

In fact, the Hou Mansion did not report to the official, it was too ugly to spread the matter, and the Hou Mansion was then cut off the title and was in trouble, so he only let the family guard chase him for a few days, and he didn't find anyone.

But obviously, Aunt Li was afraid of being caught, so she fled and hid, and her life was really hard.

When Aunt Li heard this, she was stunned for a moment, then turned her head to look at the West House, and saw that Liu Yunxiang had no intention of pursuing it, so she breathed a sigh of relief, and then collapsed to the ground.

There was a narrow dark room behind the secret door, which was damp and cold with no sunlight inside.

Liniang spread a layer of hay on the ground, which was where she and her son lived.

Jin Yan went in and took a look, but it was really not a place where people lived.

At this time, Liniang sat at the dinner table with the child in her arms, she desperately stuffed rice into her mouth, whether to feed her son, both mother and son were hungry.

After eating, Jin Yan told Aunt Li about the fact that the Hou Mansion did not report to the official, and Aunt Li was first happy, and then cried again, holding her son and crying very sadly.

"I was confused, why did I kill him. ”

"I regret it, I really regret it. ”

"If he were still here, my son and I wouldn't be like this. ”

It's really not easy for a woman with a child, but it's a bit sad to still pin her hopes on a scumbag.

Of course, she didn't sympathize with Liniang's misery, but she just saw that Brother Dong was already seven or eight years old, but he was thin and weak, and he kept coughing, I was afraid that he would not be able to raise it.

She is also going to be a mother, and it is really uncomfortable to watch.

"Why don't you go back to your hometown?" asked Liu Yunxiang.

Li Niang wiped a handful of tears, "It's a long journey, and I'm penniless......"

Liu Yunxiang glanced at Brother Kang again, sighed, and said to Jin Yan: "Give her some coils." ”

"Girl!"

Liu Yunxiang stroked his belly, "It's time to accumulate blessings for this child." ”

Jin Yan turned around, took out a silver ticket from his inner pocket, and gave it to Li Niang with a black face.

"How did you treat my girl before, and how do my girl treat you now, if you have a conscience, go back to the temple and pray for my girl and the little master. ”

Li Niang took the silver ticket and knelt down for Liu Yunxiang with the child in her arms.

said words of gratitude, but Yu Guang caught a glimpse of the soft little jackets piled up in the burden of the kang head, and there were several of them.
