Chapter 88: Goodbye Old Man
Qiao Mingyue squatted in front of him, shook the hare he had eaten before in front of his eyes, and said with an extremely sincere attitude: "If you tell your sister why you want to steal our hare, my sister will give this rabbit to you." ”
"Lady!" Qi Jingyun pursed his lips and shouted dissatisfiedly.
It's not that he feels sorry for the rabbit, it's just that this rabbit is pickled by the lady herself, and the taste is unique, and he hasn't eaten enough yet!
Qiao Mingyue glanced at her stingy husband, and said to him soothingly: "In the future, I will roast a few hundred for you, and you can eat slowly!" ”
The little radish head suddenly looked up at Qiao Mingyue, then stared at the rabbit again, and after swallowing a mouthful of saliva, he still asked in disbelief: "Really?" ”
Qi Jingyun was dissatisfied with his skeptical tone, and snorted, "What my lady said is naturally true, is it possible that she will lie to you?" There's nothing to cheat about you. ”
Qiao Mingyue also nodded, "Don't worry, you have to be true to your word, since I promised you, I won't regret it." ”
Xu is because Qi Jingyun told the truth; Or maybe it was because Qiao Mingyue's attitude was very good, so the little radish head finally nodded and agreed to the deal.
"Can you tell why you stole our stuff now?"
"I'm hungry!"
Chi Lianyi on the side frowned and continued to ask, "It's not a reason why you can steal things if you're hungry." ”
Qiao Mingyue nodded in agreement, one yard to one yard, such a half-grown child was considered to have no labor force in ancient times, and it was the norm for the children of ordinary people to not have enough to eat, but if they went to steal other people's things because they couldn't eat enough, wouldn't this country be chaotic?
The little radish head hugged the hare, and his saliva flowed down uncontrollably, and he didn't move his mouth to bite again.
Qiao Mingyue saw the mystery, first shook her head from Chi Lianyi, and then asked softly: "Since the rabbit has already arrived in your hands, you are hungry, so why don't you eat it?" ”
The little radish head seemed to be poked in the center, revealing a look of death, "A-Niang and my little sister are about to starve to death, I ...... I'm going to take this hare back and give it to them to eat. ”
As soon as she said this, Qiao Mingyue understood.
Especially Qi Jingyun, his attitude towards the little radish leader has made a 180-degree turn, "Little ghost, what about your father?" ”
Everyone in this family is going to starve to death, and his father, as the head of the family, does not go out to look for food, but lets such a small doll come out to steal something to eat?
This is also to meet them, if you meet someone else, I am afraid that it is not a corpse now.
The child naturally didn't understand the meaning of care in Qi Jingyun's words, and explained solemnly with a stiff neck: "I'm not called a little ghost, I have a name!" ”
It's not good to scream like such a little radish head, Qiao Mingyue asked softly: "Then you tell my sister, what is your name?" ”
"Balance."
Listening to the name, Qiao Mingyue had an inexplicable sense of familiarity, thinking that he had fallen to such a point now, and he didn't know what had happened to him.
"Are you a local?"
Wen Heng looked at Qiao Mingyue with a sincere face, her eyes were as bright as stars dotted in the sky, twinkling and twinkling.
She is so good-looking, Wen Heng has an inexplicable sense of closeness to her.
"We came from Yanzhou, after the city of Yanzhou was broken...... We fled with my mother," he said, and the more he spoke, the quieter his voice became, and at last he gritted his teeth and explained in a deep voice, "I didn't mean to steal your food, but I was so hungry that I couldn't help but smell the fragrance from afar." ”
Seeing his increasingly red eyes, where had Chi Lianyi seen such a battle? So I couldn't help but reassure: "Don't worry, haven't we already given you the roast rabbit, so your behavior is not stealing." ”
Speaking of Yanzhou, he has a deep relationship with the Qiao family, Yanzhou General Wen Lingyun is a general pulled out of the military camp by Qiao Mingyue's father, he grew up beside General Qiao since he was a child, and his relationship with Qiao Mingyue is also very close, so he naturally will not obey the orders of the three princes.
The three princes sent Xiongnu soldiers to besiege Yanzhou for seven days in the name of rebellion, but after all, they ran out of ammunition and food, Wen Lingyun was killed in battle, and then the city of Yanzhou was broken.
These days, the refugees who escaped from Yanzhou have been spreading the praises of Wen Lingyun's deeds, and it is difficult for Qiao Mingyue to think about it.
Wen Heng is also surnamed Wen, and he is from Yanzhou City, so Qi Jingyun also guessed that his father was Wen Lingyun, who died in battle.
is such a martyr of the country, but his children can't be taken care of as they deserve, which makes Qi Jingyun, the prince, ashamed, let alone Qiao Mingyue?
Qiao Mingyue suddenly grabbed Wen Heng's hand, rolled up her sleeves and saw a butterfly-shaped birthmark at a glance, she looked at the child in front of her in surprise, he turned out to be Wen Lingyun's son Wen Heng.
I saw Qiao Mingyue's uncontrollable red eyes, and asked in a trembling voice, "Can you take me to meet your mother and sister?" ”
When Wen Lingyun got married, his father and mother hugged her who was only five years old and came to Yanzhou to congratulate him on his birthday.
In terms of generation, she is Wen Heng's cousin.
Wen Heng wrinkled his eyebrows and stared at Qiao Mingyue for a while, and he didn't have any impression of her, so he didn't dare to rashly take these strangers to find A-Niang and Xiaomei.
But when he saw Qiao Mingyue so sad, he couldn't bear it, "Will you tell my mother what I did?" ”
She quickly shook her head, "No, I just want to know if she is my relative." ”
Compared with the confused Chi Lianyi, Qi Jingyun knew why Qiao Mingyue was so sad, and he knew everything about the relationship between the Qiao family and the Wen family before they got married.
When he and his wife were having dinner in Qiao's Mansion, occasionally Mrs. Qiao still mentioned her niece, and gave birth to a daughter for Wen Lingyun two years ago, so as to encourage Qiao Mingyue, who is a younger sister, not to fall behind.
But now, everything has turned into a bubble.
Wen Heng led the way in front, Qiao Mingyue remembered that she had just seen him when she was a child, and now she looked at his skinny back, she couldn't help crying all the time, Qi Jingyun looked at Qiao Mingyue distressedly, and she really didn't know what to say if she was comforting, so she could only take Qiao Mingyue into her arms and gently pat her back, so that she could cry more smoothly.
Qiao Mingyue suddenly choked up, and said in a low voice: "For example, if my cousin and Wen You really die, I must let the Huns in Yanzhou City die without a place to be buried." ”
Qi Jingyun was stunned for a moment, then nodded quickly, and said with a stern expression: "Don't worry, even if they don't die, I won't let Yanzhou, which General Wen guarded with his life, fall into the hands of the Huns like this." ”
