Sanzhi nervously pulled Liu Xiaohua, "Should she not be for ......"

"It's not." Liu Xiaohua looked at the girl and said to Sanzhi: "Since the sixth prince is willing to nod and help us, the Liu family will not have much trouble, and they can't offend the sixth prince for a monk." Let's go. "Turn around to the beauty" to lead the way. ”

The beauty obeyed her.

Sanzhi looked at the beauty's back, rubbed his shoulders and followed behind Liu Xiaohua.

Sanzhi and Liu Xiaohua were settled in the wing room on the west side.

There are three rooms on the west side.

The beauty stood on the cloister and hesitated, and led them to the first room. Although it is only a temporary stay, the interior is very luxuriously decorated. All kinds of treasures that Liu Xiaohua couldn't name were casually placed on the table by the window, and the bronze mirror surrounded by gems was obviously not a thing in the family temple.

The bed was covered with the fur of an unknown animal, and it was so soft to the touch that it made people tremble.

Sanzhi was completely stunned. She has lived so long, and she has never seen such a scene of poverty and luxury. How much does it cost? I'm afraid it's enough for the whole village to eat for a few lifetimes.

"This was where my sister and I lived." The beauty looked at the treasures in amazement and muttered, "He has treated us very well." He threw the treasures that others gave him into the water, just to make me laugh......... That slut bullied me, and he always soothed me so gently...... I know that he feels sorry for me only because Liki is so big...... Later he killed that slut for me......"

When Liu Xiaohua heard it, she felt a little sad for them. I can't bear to say anything.

Ji Liugongzi's thoughts, how can these people guess them thoroughly? This is the pain of being controlled by people -- life and death are up to people. One second, I was spoiled like a princess, but the next second, I was ......... When she didn't realize this, this beauty might still be happy in the illusion, but now, she has understood her own situation, and she is always afraid that the guillotine hanging above her head will fall, even if Ji Liu still loves her as before, but for her, the good old days are really gone.

The beauty came back to her senses. The voice was a little colder: "Please rest in peace, little lady." The little lady is the honored guest of the son, and the clothes and jewelry in the house can be enjoyed. ”

"Please also tell Ah Xin to let her move to the courtyard with our companions." Liu Xiaohua said.

The beauty looked at her, lowered her eyes and said, "Yes." ”

Slowly retreated.

Although Liu Xiaohua believes in Ah Xin's ability, she is still a little worried that Mazi will be detained.

But after a while, Ah Xin came over with pockmarks. Sanzhi hurriedly greeted him, "I'm still afraid that something will happen to you." ”

Ah Xin disagreed, "It's just Liu." ”

There are not many houses in the courtyard, and it is already their luck to be able to make room for them, and it is impossible to find another room to settle the pockmarks. It can only be squeezed on a kang as before.

Liu Xiaohua saw the wealth of the Ji family, and only then did she feel a little emotional, after all, people like Ah Xin have long been accustomed to the days of wealth and nobility with the Ji family, and last night she slept on a kang with them and a man without even frowning.

Ji Liu asked Ah Xin to come over to take care of her, and she really had a heart.

"Is the status of our Liu family very low?" Sanzhi asked in a low voice.

Ah Xin and Liu Xiaohua settled down the pockmarks together, and said, "It's not to be." It's been beautiful before. He smiled again, "I'm afraid it's going to be beautiful again." I just came in and saw someone leading Liu Ziling to see Gongzi. This Liu Ziling is the granddaughter of the seventh uncle, but she is not an ordinary person. You're of the same race, you should know her, right? ”

Liu Xiaohua thought that the Liu Ziling she said should be the girl in cuiyi, "We just came out of the mountains, and the people of the Liu family walking outside don't know each other very well." ”

To put it bluntly, Liu Xiaohua and Sanzhi belong to the bottom of the Liu family. For example, although they and Liu Ziling are from the same country, as ordinary wage earners of working people, how can they know those things in the real power family? How do you know who the next most beautiful person will be? In this era, there are no photos or news television, and even what people's parents look like, they only know by chance. Otherwise, if you see it, you won't know it.

"It is said that she is the closest to Lin Ajiao in terms of talent in the past thousand years." Ah Xin said with admiration on his face: "Even the Holy Emperor Xià is shocked. You may have the opportunity to see her more often in the future. Now that the Liu family is letting her go through the experience, many things are up to her. She still has some skills. Until now, there are a few things that even Childe says she did beautifully. She has never planted a heel, and her cultivation is also first-class. ”

Sanzhi immediately said, "Ah Hua is smarter than her, and she can also cultivate." Maybe it's better than her in the future. ”

"yes. People all depend on chance. How many days were born? But it was only a year or two of popularity, and then it disappeared without a trace, and it was someone else who came out in the end. Ah Xin said to Liu Xiaohua: "The most important thing is not to choose the wrong path." Look at me, when I was young, I was confused, except for the person I liked, I didn't pay attention to anything, but in the end, the person I liked married someone else, and I became a subordinate. A void. If I had been bent on becoming a monk at that time, I might have achieved it by now. You must seize the opportunity and don't go down the wrong path. ”

Ah Xin said, his tone was a little sincere, "You may think that I am a member of the Sixth Prince, and I was sent to you to persuade you." But what am I saying that is not the truth? This world is not fair to the poor or to women. And you are still young, for the sake of the future, when you should bow your head, you should bow your head, don't get along with yourself. It's not a shame for you to bow your head to your son, what kind of character is our son-in-law? Even the important ministers of the court had to salute him when they saw him. ”

Liu Xiaohua understood that Ah Xin knew what was happening in the yard, and deliberately comforted herself. In fact, she has bowed her head to Ji Liu, and Ah Xin's task can be regarded as over, but she is still willing to say this paragraph, this is her true intention. So Liu Xiaohua was a little grateful to her, "I know." Thank you, sister, for your enlightenment. ”

Ah Xin saw that Liu Xiaohua's mood seemed to have really eased, and she was a little surprised. Liu Xiaohua is only a few years old, a little girl with a bit of arrogance in her temperament, she was forced to kneel in public, and she was able to recover so quickly! In Liu Xiaohua's subtle expression, although it was revealed that she was unwilling, these unwillingness were very well concealed.

Ah Xin felt a little pity for her: "To be honest, our son's temper is a little weird. But he's not a bad guy. You'll find out later. ”

Liu Xiaohua slandered, he is still a good person, that is really a big joke in the world.

Sanzhi said: "Although I haven't met the sixth son, he is willing to help us save our lives." We can only be grateful to him, and we will never repay virtue with resentment. ”

Sanzhi could say such a thing, Liu Xiaohua was surprised. According to her previous temper, she would definitely be upset because the other party made her kneel. But then, Liu Xiaohua was relieved, who hasn't grown step by step, such as herself. After suffering hardship, you will naturally understand the truth. No matter what you think in your heart, at least taking this soft is already progress.

Ah Xin smiled and said: "The two little ladies are sensible people. I'm just talking about it for nothing. ”

Liu Xiaohua asked Ah Xin for medicine for the injury and helped Sanzhi to compress his legs. I rolled up my trouser leg and saw that her leg was almost broken in two and then reconnected by someone. Her left leg was a little shorter than her right, and her leg couldn't have been as good as it had been.

"The horse was startled, and threw me out and kicked me, and the leg bone was broken. Later, the people of the sixth son were kind and connected the leg to me, but unfortunately there was no way to give it up. Sanzhi said to Liu Xiaohua with a happy face: "Fortunately, Sister Ah Xin went in time, if Sister Ah Xin didn't come to me, I am afraid that people will not bother to help me treat this leg." You say it's not weird, it's just that you gave a talisman, so a sticker. Flesh and bone slowly come together. Look at ......," he said and let Liu Xiaohua see.

Sure enough, on the circle of wounds that were connected, there were faint runes with dark light flashing.

Liu Xiaohua was also very shocked. Runes turned out to be such a useful thing. It's one thing to hear about it, and it's another thing to see it.

Ah Xin smiled at Liu Xiaohua and said, "If it weren't for the little lady, you entrusted me, I wouldn't have been able to do such a good deed." "Immediately make it clear to whom the credit lies.

Liu Xiaohua said: "I still want to thank you." ”

When Sanzhi heard this, he immediately said seriously: "Ah Hua and I are sisters, so I don't need to say anything thank you or not." Besides, even if she remembers me in her heart, if my sister refuses to run errands for her, or is perfunctory, then my leg will be finished. "Saying that, I made a big one," Thank you, Sister Axin. ”

Ah Xin covered her mouth and smiled: "You two little girls, you are really polite." ”

But the mood is a lot better.

Who doesn't want others to remember themselves?

The three of them laughed, washed and slept, and talked a lot about their little daughter's family. I slowly fell asleep.

Sure enough, there was nothing to do overnight, and Ji Liu didn't call the two of them because of the Liu family. Liu Xiaohua slept until dawn, and felt in her heart that if Liu Ziling was really as shrewd as Ah Xin said, she might really not mention the monk's matter. Who is a fool in this world?

She rubbed her eyes, lifted off the three legs pressed against her, and turned over to find that Ah Xin had already gotten up. Only she and Sanzhi were still asleep. Even Mako's quilt was empty.

Liu Xiaohua listened quietly, and there were many footsteps outside. She hurriedly got up and put on her clothes, pushed open the door and saw that the people of the Ji family were already planning to go on the road.

The car went directly into the temple and stopped at the gate of the courtyard. Some of them are not from the original team, but they are also extremely wealthy. It must have been given to Ji Liu by the Liu family.

Ji Liu's servants are packing things and delivering them to the car. The guards were already in battle.

Seeing these people getting on the car and getting on the horse, they were going to leave like this, and no one cared about her, Liu Xiaohua was a little stunned in addition to being happy. What does Ji Roku mean by this?

The beauty who arranged for her yesterday came over in a hurry and said to her embarrassedly, "I'll pack my things." It's time to go on the road with Childe. Liu Xiaohua got out of the way, she hurriedly stuffed the things on the table into her bag, as if she didn't intend to ask: "Childe likes the little lady like that, doesn't the little lady follow, why don't you clean it up?" ”

"Childe has no orders." Liu Xiaohua said.

"Oh......" The beauty's expression faded a little, put away all the things, turned to look at Liu Xiaohua, with a fake smile on her face, and said: "What the little lady likes, just use it for herself, you don't have to return it to me." But he didn't move.

Liu Xiaohua laughed angrily: "I didn't take anything from you." ”

The beauty glanced at Liu Xiaohua suspiciously, but unfortunately she didn't have time and couldn't count it, so she said, "Say whatever you want." She would never believe that such a poor ghost, seeing so many good things, would not secretly take one or two inconspicuous items.

But because of yesterday's incident, I was not too much. Strode out with the package. almost crashed into Ah Xin, who was running back.

When Liu Xiaohua saw Ah Xin coming back, she thought that she was here to convey Ji Liu's order, and her heart tightened.

Ah Xin just said to her hurriedly: "I'm going to leave with my son." ”

Liu Xiaohua was stunned: "Sixth son...... Didn't say anything? ”

Ah Xin also frowned: "No." He muttered, "I thought ......," and smiled at Liu Xiaohua embarrassedly, "Our son-in-law is in a hurry." I think that after this incident, Childe will definitely think of you again. Even if you are at the ends of the earth, he can find you. In her opinion, Liu Xiaohua is too much pity, obviously she has already bowed to her son, endured her anger, and sees that she has a good future, and she is going to follow her son to enjoy happiness. But she didn't expect that this incident would happen all of a sudden, so that Gongzi even forgot about her.

"I'm here to help you ask...... But ......, "Since Gongzi didn't mention bringing Liu Xiaohua, then others would never have the courage to talk too much." She smiled in embarrassment.

"I understand." Liu Xiaohua was really relieved. She had thought that if Ji Liu asked her to be her own servant, then she would definitely strive for it, and she would never be the kind of branding! Because of this worry, she didn't sleep well the night before, afraid that she wouldn't be able to get out of it with her whole body, and the nightmares one after another were not a good sign. Unexpectedly, overnight, all the worries disappeared.

People didn't even think of her. And he went on the road with a large army.

Ah Xin nodded with satisfaction and said, "Don't worry, the people of the Liu family don't dare to embarrass you." Otherwise, if it spreads out in the future, it will hurt Ji's face. You must be cautious when you act outside in the future, and I hope that we will meet again one day in the future. "It's a little genuinely sentimental.

She has a good impression of Liu Xiaohua, and the two of them can also talk. Just formed a little friendship, and now it's time to separate. In a world where there is no mobile phone and no remote instant messaging system, sometimes two people can be separated for a lifetime.

"Yes. My sister also has to take care of herself. Liu Xiaohua is also very emotional.

Ah Xin looked left and right, and whispered to her, "Liu Yourong is in Tiancheng." "The sound is very quiet.

Liu Xiaohua was stunned for a moment, and immediately said, "I won't say that I heard it from my sister." ”

Liu Xiaohua understood that she had taken a risk by telling herself the news. Maybe that kind of person with status like Ji Liugongzi is very taboo about his whereabouts being spread everywhere. Ji Liugongzi is also disgusted with the people around him eavesdropping on leaked news. Ah Xin revealed it to her, which is also a kind of trust. I believe that she will not cause trouble to herself.

Ah Xin's smile was a little bigger: "I know that I am saying it in vain, and it is your luck to find him." You take care. He turned and ran towards the convoy, which had been slowly departing.

Watching the Ji family's convoy disappear like this, Liu Xiaohua felt like she had a big dream.

In the bottom of my heart, there is still some inexplicable loss.

He literally just walked away.

Mazi came out of Gong's room with his support for the wall, and when he saw Liu Xiaohua, he asked in wonder, "Why are you back again?" ”

Sanzhi heard the noise outside and had already gotten up. Seeing that the people of the Ji family were gone, he quickly put on his clothes, ran outside and rubbed his face vigorously with the snow, and said to Liu Xiaohua, "Let's go quickly." ”

Liu Xiaohua didn't want to stay here longer. Anyway, there was nothing to clean up, and the two of them planned to hit the road with their bare hands. If there is anything different compared to before, only Liu Xiaohua may earn a piece of clothing. Don't be afraid of the cold.

As soon as Mazi saw that they were going to leave like this, he immediately scolded loudly at the top of his voice: "Do you have a heart? I've made this happen for you, and you're just leaving? ”

"We saved your life. If it weren't for us, you would have died. Sanzhi showed no weakness.

"You deserve to save my life, if it weren't for you, how would I be dying?" Hemp limped into the house, grabbed his clothes and quickly put them on, limped out again, and chased after them.

Sanzhi was lame on his left foot, he was lame on his right foot, Sanzhi was so angry that he grabbed the snow and embarrassed him: "Why are you learning from me!" ”

Mazi was not to be outdone, and when she grabbed the snow, she threw it in her face, "All the lame people in the world are learning from you?" Are you a leper□□? Such a big breath! "The movement was too big, and it affected the wounds on the body that were not completely healed, and the pain was so painful that the mouth was cracked.

The three of you fight for me and go outside.

The people in the clan temple watched the three people leave, but they didn't say much. Maybe one or two of them were angry, but nothing came out.

There are two people, Mazi and Sanzhi, who are noisy all the way, and they have a brisk time along the way.

I walked like this for three days, and when it was dark, I entered the clan temple, and I began to hurry when the sky was bright. Unexpectedly smooth, I didn't encounter any other troubles.

When she finally saw the walls of Tiancheng, Liu Xiaohua breathed a long sigh of relief.

As if in a dream, Mieda said, "Is this really Tiancheng?" I felt like it had taken a lifetime to get here since I left the village. ”

Recalling the accident along the way, she really felt a lot of emotion. She has changed from a healthy mountain girl to a lame girl. But even so, she still felt glad in her heart, glad that she was still alive, and very proud of herself.

Asako squinted at the distant city. But suddenly, he crossed his waist and shouted, singing: "Bah! Look ahead~~Black Hole~ It must be the thief's lair, wait to catch up and kill him! Liu Xiaohua's heart moved, and she glanced at him more. Because what he sings is clearly Peking Opera.

When Sanzhi heard this, he gave Mazi a look: "What are you crazy about?" Tiancheng is the place of our Liu family. ”

Mazi sneered: "You regard yourself as the Liu family, do others regard you as the Liu family?" ”

Mieda was speechless by his question. But he didn't continue to scold him like he did in the past few days. It was just silent and silent.

"We'll go our separate ways here." Mazi arched his hand, like a chivalrous man, "There is a fate to meet again." If you break out of the world, don't forget the friendship of falling together. ”

Sanzhi muttered angrily, "Who fell with you?" We go through life and death, and you slump there and sleep like a dead pig. ”

Asako smiled brightly, showed a mouthful of white teeth, turned around and twisted her ass and limped her left leg and walked forward.

Sanzhi was so angry that he chased after him and hit him, "You're going to die!" Learn from me again! ”

Mazi laughed out loud and ran away after a while.

When he ran out of sight, Sanzhi didn't bother to scold anymore, and asked Liu Xiaohua: "What are you going to do?" Go to ethnography? ”

Liu Xiaohua touched the two coins in her pocket and said, "Let's go to Atai first." He must have been in a hurry. ”

Atay was working in a pharmacy.

When the two of them entered the city, they easily found the shop where Atai was doing. The store occupies a large storefront, with three floors and a courtyard inside. When you stand outside, you can see that the people inside are very busy. There were also a terrible number of guests, and some came directly with horse-drawn carriages. Guys live in bags and fight goods in people's cars.

Liu Xiaohua saw that there were zhuguo in the medicinal materials used for samples outside. But there were many other things she didn't recognize.

Sanzhi and Liu Xiaohua went into the store, and no buddy paid attention to them, Sanzhi found a buddy and asked, "May I ask if Atai is here?" ”

The guy was so busy that he didn't have the time to pay attention to her, "What Atai, I don't know." He turned around and greeted the guests with an earnest face. Sanzhi went to ask another.

This one is a little better-tempered. He said, "There are a lot of workers in the back, so I don't know if the Atai you asked is here." But I can go and ask you, who is looking for Atay? ”

Sanzhi thanked him and reported his name.

The fellow said, "Got it." Waving his hand: "You go out and wait." ”

Liu Xiaohua looked at herself and Sanzhi, only to find that it was really not very good-looking. Although the clothes on her body were good, they were dirty and torn along the way. It looks like two beggars. No wonder they don't want to stand in the store.

The two of them stood patiently outside the store for a while, and when they saw that it was getting dark, a dark and thin boy came out.

Liu Xiaohua had also met Atai a few times before. But at that time he was much fatter than he is now. And the face is always smiling with joy.

When Atai saw Liu Xiaohua and Sanzhi, he was not very happy, but said, "You are here." ”

Sanzhi didn't recognize him a little. I looked at him in a daze for a long time.

Atai wiped his face and said, "Let's go." I'll take you back to settle down first. I have to go quickly, I only asked the shopkeeper for a while" After speaking, he hurriedly took Sanzhi and Liu Xiaohua to her place. That is, there is no intimate greeting that I haven't seen for a long time, and I don't say anything else.

Sanzhi held back his stomach and wanted to tell Atai, but Atai looked tired in a hurry, as if he was not in the mood to listen. Sanzhi closed his mouth with a calm face. But his eyes kept wandering over the clothes that Atay was wearing.

The jacket that Atai wore was new, thick, and looked very warm. Although there is still a little hair peeking out from the collar opening. The people in the village can't afford to wear such good clothes. There is no fur to wear. Because there are no beasts in the mountains, if you want to wear furs, you have to go out and buy them. But the people in the mountains are poor, and they all have money to buy food, and they have no money to spend on it.

So she looked at Atai's clothes with envy.

Atai said, "This is from the store. and all the workmen. ”

Sanzhi nodded and said, "...... We had an accident on the way......"

Ah Tai immediately said, "What's so strange about that. When you go out, how can anyone not encounter something. I'll have a lot more to do in the future. ”

Sanzhi couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved. All of a sudden, his eyes turned red.

Maybe she was hoping to get some understanding and comfort here in Atai. I didn't expect such a response. This man, but her future reliance, is so cold.

Liu Xiaohua said: "Looking at Atai's appearance, he also suffered hardship. It's all thin like this. ”

Sanzhi turned his head and held back his tears. Atai didn't notice her strangeness at all, and said as he walked forward, "It's not strange to suffer a little outside. You'll find out later. ”

"We've just come to town, why don't you take us around?" Saneda couldn't help but look angry.

"No, I can't. I'm getting paid a lot now. There's a lot more money to be paid for when you're here. Atai frowned and said, "If you don't have a job, you will have to deduct a lot of money." The cost of Tiancheng is high. When he saw Sanzhi's feet limping, he immediately reached out to help her. Let her rely almost entirely on herself.

But Sanzhi still looked unhappy. felt that she had been neglected, and as her fiancé, Atai did not give her the enthusiasm and regret she imagined, let alone say half a nice word.

But Liu Xiaohua looked at the two of them like this, and she was actually very envious.

Sanzhi's temperament was so suffocated before, and he didn't get angry casually outside, but now that he really sees his relatives and feels that he is completely safe, he will be so casual and presumptuous.

But she herself, I'm afraid there is no such person who can completely let her down her guard. It's as if she's carrying a wax shell on her back, completely enclosing her true self in it. I really don't know if that real self will one day suffocate silently in it.

Atai took the two of them to turn east and west, and soon walked from the popular and bustling road into the dirty and messy side street.

The further you go inside, the more haphazard shacks there are. Many old and dilapidated small buildings, with many expanded huts on each floor, look crumbling, so that people walking on the street are always worried that the building above their heads will collapse.

When Atai finally arrived at the place where he landed with Liu Xiaohua and Sanzhi, Sanzhi was completely dumbfounded.

He lived in one of those superfluous huts. On the second floor, the inside is narrower than it looks from the outside.

And the floor was full of bunks, and a few people were sleeping.

Atai led them to the innermost bunk, "You sleep on this." "Take down a bag hanging on the wall and give it to Sanzhi," there is food here. There's still a little change, you can buy whatever you want" and specially advised, "You don't need to buy pancreas or anything." I have a piece, enough for the three of us. ”

Saneda came back to his senses at this time and said incredulously, "We're going to sleep here?" How many people sleep in this room? ”

Atay was puzzled and said, "Eleven." Plus what's wrong with the thirteen of you? That's still less. There are more people elsewhere. ”

"It's worse than a pig! In that case, what did you call me for? I might as well be in the village. Sanzhi was furious.

She has endured so much along the way, and all the motivation she can endure is Atai and the new life in the city. But I didn't expect that she would be greeted by such a situation.

Atai was not angry, and said in a good voice: "You are alone in the village, what should you do?" Who will take care of you? Besides, if there is no one in the house, can you go into the mountains to pick fruits? This fruit-picking thing has never been done only by a man. If you don't come out, you won't have anything to eat. It's not good to stay here for the time being, but it will always be good in the future. The two of us make a lot of money, so we can live better. Actually, if you don't come, I won't live outside. There are sleeping places in pharmacies. You can also save a little more money. ”

Sanzhi looked aggrieved, opened his mouth, and continued to say something.

A person who was sleeping in the house had already been woken up and said coldly: "When you go out, you are no better than at home." No one is here to be blessed. You can sleep, and if you don't, go home! ”

Sanzhi trembled with anger and looked at Atai, but Atai didn't help her speak. Just said to her, "I'm not coming back today." You can be a little more spacious. Then he said to the man who had taught Sanzhi coldly, "If they want to buy something in a while, please take them there." Familiarize yourself with your surroundings. ”

The man said "yes". didn't say hello to Sanzhi and Liu Xiaohua, retracted his head into the quilt and continued to sleep.

After Ah Tai finished speaking, he hurried away. He had to rush back to work.

Sanzhi almost cried, and as soon as Atai left, he sat on the quilt that belonged to her and Sanzhi, staring at the small gap in the wall in a daze. A look of discouragement.

"It's fine." Liu Xiaohua comforted her in a low voice, "I will slowly get better in the future." ”

She held back tears and said, "I thought it would be better here...... How much have we suffered along the way...... I endured it, and my legs became like this...... He didn't ask me ...... either."

"But he's holding you. I don't dislike you. ”

"If he had known that my leg wasn't getting better, he might have disliked me."

"You know again? Don't do that. Don't think of people as bad without a basis. There is no end to this thought, and there is no one in the world like a good person. Liu Xiaohua wiped away her tears, "What's more, he is still someone as close to you." Isn't he so tired to make a little more money for you to spend? It's always going to get better in the future. ”

Sanzhi wiped away his tears, and his expression became a little resolute, "Let's send you to the clan study first." Don't delay here. ”
