Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Wind and Rain

It rained heavily during the day, and the insects were noisy at night.

Recently, there has been frequent heavy rain, and the quilt has not been dried for a long time, and it is damp.

The weather is tidal, the quilt is tidal, and the shoulder blades of the quilt have suddenly hurt in recent days, and it hurts like a heart when I close my eyes.

She got up from the bed, picked up the teapot on the table and shook it twice, only to find it empty.

There were a few faint snoring sounds in the next room, Xu is Ye Zi, thinking that she was talking about the size of the orchid garden during the day, she was so tired that she couldn't bear to disturb, so she walked out with a teapot.

When she walked outside the firewood house, she looked back and saw a woman kneeling by the well, her wet hair mixed with the dirt on the ground, but she didn't care about the dirt and cold, she only cared about digging down, trying to scoop out a ladle of water to drink.

"What are you doing?"

The woman obviously didn't expect someone to suddenly appear behind her, and she was suddenly startled, and looked back at the person who came with trepidation, but she retreated again and again in a panic, shaking her head and muttering to herself, "Leave me alone, I just want to drink some water, please." ”

"Drink water?" Qi He looked at the woman suspiciously, took a few steps forward, and said in a gentle tone as much as possible, "If you want to drink water, take some wooden barrels and go to the firewood room to burn and drink, take a wooden scoop and drink it directly, it's not good to drink it directly, it's cold at night, I'm afraid that the well water is cold, and I'm not afraid of getting sick after drinking?"

"Head of the house...... Master of the house, I don't dare anymore, I must work hard, I just ...... It's just too tired and thirsty...... It's so late now, I ...... I didn't expect you to come back...... It's all my fault......" The woman was so frightened that she knelt on the ground with her head in her hands, and through the white gauze, she could faintly see the whip marks on her arms, and the new marks that had not yet scabbed were still oozing blood, and under the light of the moon, it was very terrifying.

His pupils shrank and he placed the teapot at his feet.

"Where are you a maid, and how did the wound on your hand come from?" she said as she walked over and grabbed the woman's arm, her tone much sharper.

"It's my fault, it's all my fault, I'm ...... I didn't wash my clothes on time, it's all my fault. The woman didn't dare to look at him directly, she just shook her head, and the words in her mouth were always these two words, and she let go of her hand, she hurriedly got up and ran away, the wooden water scoop fell to the ground with a clatter, and the remaining water in the scoop splashed on Yihe's clothes.

She reached out and touched it, it was indeed cold.

......

Boyan took Naning's hand and walked on the street.

Passers-by looked hurried, carrying a few suitcases with their heads down, all in a hurry.

Occasionally, someone would stop by because of their different appearance from the locals, but only for a moment.

"They're all on their way. Naning looked at all this in front of her, and only felt bored, it was better to be in their Western Regions, there were not so many passers-by who were rushing to survive, calm and serene, and this only made her feel endless sadness.

"They're trying to live in a different place. Boyan let go of his sister's hand, took out his waist bag and looked at the silver drift inside, his face sank, "Maybe we still have to find a way to earn some money, otherwise it will be difficult to live." ”

Nanin frowned, how can there be an opportunity to make money in a chaotic place.

"I heard that the town next door was slaughtered by those invaders before, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled have not been spared, a miserable scene, but a few days ago a big marshal came, with an iron cavalry force, and drove the invaders away, and the big marshal believes in the law, is looking for someone to tell the fortune of his new mansion. Boyan said meaningfully, this is a great opportunity, if you can gain the trust of the handsome, and then go to the Orchid Garden to find a peace, you can have a little more confidence.

"But brother, we are talismans, not Taoist priests, how can we look at feng shui and fortune-telling! Besides, even with the talismans of our three-legged cats, we can't fool it. Nanin said angrily, she regretted that she had refused to practice talismans properly when she was at Dahl's house, and when she really wanted to use them, she found that she didn't know anything.

"How do you know if you don't try. Boyan glanced at his sister steadily, and whispered his plan in her ear.

Naning almost laughed like a flower after hearing this, and didn't forget to praise her brother, "Brother, I never found you so smart before!"

"But the big handsome is the big handsome, our ultimate goal is to make peace, we must learn her Yin Blood Talisman, so that we can go back. Looking at her smiling sister, Boyan patted her head, and smiled dotingly, he is such a sister, now they have no relatives, only each other can rely on.

If her mother hadn't died, then Naning would still be the daughter of King Dahl, who was the envy of everyone in the Western Regions.

She was born beautiful, her family background is good, the strongest warrior in the Western Regions was taken under the command of King Dar, at that time, even the palace nobles from the capital had to give her three points, and everyone knew that she was the most noble woman in the Western Regions.

No one thought that she would end up where she is now.

Three years ago, my mother fell from a horse and was seriously injured, and it didn't take long for her to die, I thought that my mother and father had been kissing each other since childhood, and no matter how unkind my father was, he would not marry another woman as soon as he turned around after the matter.

Unbeknownst to them, their father told them that he had never loved their mother, but that he needed their grandfather's power to strengthen his position in the Western Regions, and that he would poison his own wife in order to get their mother.

When he married the third lady, he and Nanin knelt all night outside their cave room.

He still remembers that it snowed heavily that night, and Nanin was sent back to his room after being frozen and fainted.

The third lady is the same age as their eldest brother, and looks like a fox, which makes Naning even more unhappy, and from time to time she makes her angry with her subordinates, and every time the third lady sees it, she will stumble on her, and then go to her father to complain aggrievedly, and after several provocations, their brother and sister have become dispensable people in the family.

Even the Dahl family's talismans, his father was unwilling to teach them personally, and even issued a ban on foot.

Naning had no intention of being a talisman, she was used to being casual and didn't like to be restrained, so she just broke away from the people who guarded her and sneaked out, but accidentally bumped into the eldest brother and the third lady doing something unseemly.

When she fled in a hurry, the hairpin fell in the courtyard of the third lady.

Since then, her life has become more and more sad, her father did not even allow Boyan to come to see her, and often scolded and scolded that their brother and sister were wild seeds, and she didn't want to see them for a long time, she could only watch the third lady smile proudly, like a victor.

And their brother and sister have become complete losers.

Later, her father told them that the third lady was pregnant, and let them settle down and not have any crooked thoughts.

Although Naning hates her to the bone, she is still too kind, she never wants to hurt an innocent child, but whenever she sees her, she takes a detour, for fear of bumping into her body and causing trouble, but she didn't expect that it would be six or seven months later, and she still got into trouble.

She was kicked out like this, they had to run for a living from the fine clothes and food they used to have, but Nanin never complained.

As the saying goes, the eldest brother is like a father, and he will personally protect his younger sister.

"Brother, what do you want, so expressive," Naning pushed his brother's elbow, and stretched out her hand to shake it in front of him a few times, "Then let's clean up and set off for the town next door immediately, after all, some things have to be prepared in advance!"
