Chapter Eighty-Three: There Is a Sister
When Ling Chen heard Mu Jiu say this to the little boy, he subconsciously thought that Mu Jiu was talking about her being divorced and expelled from the house, and he looked at this smiling girl with a somewhat complicated look in his eyes. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Not only Ling Chen, but even Su Jing felt the same way.
But this time they did guess wrong, Mu Jiu was talking about his own things in another world, when he was a child, he and his mother lived in the countryside, because his mother was alone, I don't know how many white eyes she and her mother suffered because of this, no child wants to play with her, and even often bullies herself together, no one helps her, and she has never told her mother, she feels that her mother has worked very hard and doesn't want to make trouble for her mother anymore.
So when Mu Jiu saw this little boy today, it was like seeing her former self, so she rescued the boy without thinking about it, and the boy's stubborn eyes really shocked her.
Mu Jiu looked at the boy with a smile and said, "By the way, you haven't told me what your name is!"
The little boy also laughed and said to Mu Jiu, "Sister, my name is Baiye."
Mu Jiu took Bai Ye's hand, Bai Ye stood next to Mu Jiu, this ten-year-old child standing next to Mu Jiu couldn't even reach Mu Jiu's shoulder, Bai Ye's hand on Mu Jiu's palm was a little awkward, Mu Jiu could feel his bones, how malnourished such a thin body was!
Mu Jiu actually wanted to ask Baiye, what about his family? But she didn't ask, she was afraid that she would inadvertently hurt the child.
Mu Jiu said to everyone: "I'll take Baiye out to play, you all eat first, and we'll set off tomorrow." Several people are not cold-blooded people, and they are a little distressed when they see such a child, and they have all checked that this Baiye is indeed not a monk, so there is no need to worry that he will hurt Mujiu.
Lan Yiyi winked at Mu Jiu and said coquettishly, "Lord, take me with you, you didn't take me yesterday." Mu Jiu looked at the coquettish Lan Yi and smiled: "Okay"
Xiao Niang naturally won't miss it, and then stood up and said very imposingly: "I'm going too!" Xiao Niang, who is so domineering and leaky, Mu Jiu can only say about it: "Okay, good"
Because they were all women and a child, the others were not embarrassed to go together, and then they all stayed in the inn.
Mu Jiu and a few others went to find a restaurant first, because everyone got up early and tossed for so long, so now eating is the most important thing, but I don't know much about this place, and I don't know what to eat.
So as soon as Mu Jiu entered, he said to the shopkeeper: "I want a private room, bring in all your best meals here, and don't want wine." As soon as the shopkeeper saw Mu Jiu's arrogant words, he responded again and again, and began to order the cooks to cook, and then asked the man to lead Mu Jiu and them to the private room.
After a while, the food was served, and Mu Jiu saw that Baiye was swallowing a little secretly, and smiled softly: "Baiye, eat quickly, these are all for you, we are not very hungry."
Xiao Niang and Lan Yiyi also nodded frequently, after Baiye heard it, he smiled a little embarrassedly, and then began to eat, seriously, he didn't remember the last time he had a good meal, and now that he saw so many delicacies, he naturally couldn't help it.
Regarding the speed at which Baiye eats, Mu Jiu and the others were stunned, but they were more distressed, how long had this Baiye been hungry!
After eating and drinking, several people went to the clothing shop where Mu Jiu and Xiao Niang went yesterday, and the person who entertained the guests in the clothes shop was still the woman from yesterday, and the woman obviously recognized Mu Jiu and Xiao Niang.
greeted him, smiled very decently, looked at Mujiu and said, "What else to buy today?" Mu Jiu smiled back, then pointed to Baiye and said, "You can help this kid choose some clothes!"
When the woman listened to the words of Mu Jiu, she looked at Baiye, because the woman's height was also very high, so the woman squatted directly in front of Baiye, without a little embarrassment, and said very gently: "What color does my brother like, what kind of clothes?" Tell my sister, and my sister will pick out clothes for you! ”
Baiye blinked, and then looked at Mujiu again, with some cowardice and discomfort in his eyes, Mujiu said with a smile: "Baiye just said what kind of clothes you like, it's okay."
After getting the words of Mu Jiu, Bai Ye said to the woman who had been squatting and waiting: "Sister, I like white, everything else is fine." The woman nodded slightly, then got up and went to the inner room, probably to find clothes.
Mu Jiu looked at the woman's back and nodded slightly, such a gentle and polite woman is really rare, she thought, it is this woman, I am afraid it has also attracted a lot of customers! If nothing else, it's very comfortable to buy things here.
Lan Yiyi didn't plan to let others choose for her, because Lan Yiyi always likes something different, let others help her choose, and others really can't choose, so Xiao Niang accompanied Lan Yiyi to pick things, while Mu Jiuza and Baiye sat at the table and waited for the woman to choose clothes.
When the two of them were sitting and drinking tea, four people walked in from outside, it should be a family of four, a middle-aged couple, an older girl and a younger boy, the boy saw a dress like a war robe, and then pulled his sister with one hand, and his mother with the other, and said that he wanted this dress, and the couple smiled dotingly, and then accompanied the boy to buy clothes.
This unintentional episode Mujiu didn't pay much attention to it, picked up the teacup and wanted to take a sip of tea to moisten his throat, but he saw Baiye lowering his head, his body trembling slightly, and Mujiu said softly: "Baiye?"
Then Mu Jiu saw a pair of eyes full of tears, Mu Jiu didn't know that it would be like this, but he was stunned, and it took a while to find his thinking, and he said with some hesitation: "Is Baiye homesick?"
Baiye raised his head, blinked his eyes a few times, let the tears disappear again, then lowered his head, and said in a very small voice: "I don't have a home anymore."
Mu Jiu's heart tightened slightly, he was really still coarse, and he even asked about Baiye's sadness, but he couldn't help but guess: Is Baiye an orphan?
Before Mujiu could speak, Baiye spoke in a low voice again: "Actually, I also have a sister." His voice trembled slightly, and his words were full of sadness.
When Mu Jiu heard this, his heart was a little lower, but he couldn't help but ask: "That?"
Baiye raised his head, looked at Mu Jiu, bit his lower lip lightly, put his hands together and kept wrapping around, and then said in a very soft voice: "I can't find my sister anymore." Then there were tears in my eyes again.
Mu Jiu's heart trembled, her parents were gone, and the only remaining sister could not be found, she really couldn't imagine what this child who was less than ten years old had experienced?
