Since the last time the river god sacrificed goodbye, Luo Lian'er and Man Man haven't seen each other for half a month, it's rare to see each other, naturally there are many things to say, and Yu has no hope of persuading her, so Luo Lian'er stayed.

Manman took her hand and pulled her into his small room to speak.

"Lian'er, why haven't you told me about the National Teacher, I've been worried about you from beginning to end, for fear that you won't even have anyone to defect to after you arrive in Jiangcheng, and I've inquired with the villagers in the same village several times." That day, seeing Luo Lian'er talking to Yu Wuwang, Man Man was really frightened, she was an ordinary little girl, where would she have thought that she could have a relationship with the national teacher.

Luo Lian'er sat on the edge of the bed, talking to Manman, but her eyes involuntarily drifted outward: "I didn't expect him to come at the time, let alone that he would recognize me, obviously we have only met once or twice, and we are not even acquaintances." ”

When Luo Lian'er spoke, her mood was as low as if she had fallen into a trough, and she was also a woman, and Man Man could roughly guess the reason.

Her worried eyes swirled around Luo Lian'er, and finally she couldn't help but persuade her: "Lian'er, don't blame me for talking too much, the national teacher ........ with you."

"I know."

It's one thing to know in your heart, and it's another thing to hear from others, the former is a little sad at best, and the latter is a knife in the heart.

Luo Lian'er took Man Man's hand, half-lowered her eyes and said: "I know that I can't be with the national teacher, the first time I saw him before, when I was tempted by him, someone told me this more than once, and I knew it in my heart." It's just that this kind of thing is not like an object, and it can be corrected if it is bent, and it will take some time for me to completely let him go from the bottom of my heart. ”

Manman said with a look of pity: "Take your time, it will be fine." ”

This time, Luo Lian'er specially begged Yu to bring herself over, in addition to persuading Man Man to leave, one of the purposes of the order was to persuade Man Man to see a little, after all, it was her own grandmother, who had spoiled her since she was a child, and it was definitely not easy to persuade her to want to open, Luo Lian'er was ready to fight hard.

She coughed lightly and said, "Manman, you should already know about the announcement, right?" ”

The hand pouring the tea paused slightly, and the person being questioned raised his head and said with a complicated expression: "I know, the notice of the official government has been posted at the entrance of the village, and everyone knows that my grandmother will be ...... the day after tomorrow It was for this reason that my father and mother hurriedly chose to move out. ”

My grandmother has already been convicted by the government, and if the whole family continues to live in the village, they will definitely be criticized, and even worse, someone will poke them in the backbone and speak ill of them. Fortunately, adults have seen strong winds and waves, so naturally they will not be afraid of those gossips, just treat it as if they haven't heard anything. However, children are different from them, children are the most sensitive, and it is the time to cultivate the mind, if it becomes bad because of these gossips, it will be a big trouble.

My father and mother also chose to leave for the sake of their younger siblings, which Manman can naturally figure out, the only thing she can't understand is her grandmother's affairs: "That night, why did you promise your grandmother to be my stand-in?" My mother put medicine in my porridge to make me sleep, and if my brother hadn't woken me up from my sleep, I'm afraid I wouldn't have known about it. ”

Luo Lian'er smiled slightly: "Alas, don't mention this, this is all in the past." ”

Compared with the previous things, Luo Lian'er wanted to know more about the old woman's disposal, it is said that the person who is going to cut off his head will have a family member to send a severed head wine before leaving, and will also say two last words to his family, the family left in such a hurry, didn't they think about the old woman who was still in prison at this time? Luo Lian'er asked truthfully about the confusion in her heart, and finally said, "Why don't you wait until the punishment is over before going?" ”

Manman shook her head, her emotions visibly disappointed when she talked about it: "All this is my grandmother's own idea. ”

After the announcement of the government was posted that day, everyone in the family blew up their nests, and they were very nervous. Grandmother is a good person on weekdays, except for presiding over the river god sacrifice, no one can jump out of any mistakes, so Manman wanted to intercede for her and went to the yamen in person. However, she failed, but Lord Taishou, for the sake of their poor family, allowed her to visit the prison.

You must know that Meng Liguo's death row prisoners are not allowed to visit, Jiang Cheng is too gracious, and Man Man is already very grateful.

"As soon as my grandmother saw me and my father that day, she knew that we must have come to intercede, and she directly said that she was ....... It is more than innocent to die, and no one needs to intercede. Grandmother also said that she had been living in shame all these years, and this ending was the best she could have imagined. The grandmother also took the initiative to ask the family to move out as soon as possible, and she was afraid that her younger siblings would be affected......."

As soon as he said this, Manman felt the urge to cry: "Grandmother is really miserable. ”

Luo Lian'er couldn't help but sigh and said: "Mother-in-law can't help herself, and now she finally has her own choice, Manman, you should be happy for her." It was the result of her own begging. ”

"That's what my grandmother said......."

Man Man hugged Luo Lian'er, and tears fell down like pearls with broken threads.

The thatched hut was as dilapidated on the inside as it was on the outside, but someone had cleaned it up to make it look less dirty. The door here is also dilapidated, and the crack in the door is large enough to pass through the palm of a hand, and naturally it can't block the sound coming from the room, even if you sit in the hall, Yu Wuwang can also hear Manman's cry inside.

The young man had apparently heard it too, and his expression was restless, clearly worried.

However, he endured the urge to go in and have a look, turned his head and greeted Yu Wuwang and said: "The cold house is simple, only coarse tea can entertain the national teacher, and I hope you don't dislike it." "Let's read books

Jade Hopeless smiled and shook her head.

While the young man's mind was all in the room, Jade looked at him hopelessly.

I saw that this young man had a jade face and a tall posture, even if he was sitting upright, he also had his own bearing, which was the real reason why Yu had no hope of asserting that he would definitely do a lot in the future. Yu Wuwang was quite interested in him: "What's your name?" ”

The young man didn't expect that the dignified national teacher would take the initiative to talk to him, and he asked his name, and was flattered to report his name: "Caomin Jiang Ping'an." ”

"Do you have the heart to make a difference?"

Jiang Ping'an nodded vigorously: "The big husband has made a career, and the grass people naturally have a heart!" I once had the heart to join the army, but unfortunately it was not good to be small, and I was weak, so I dispelled the idea. ”

Indeed, if a figure like him goes to the battlefield, I am afraid that he will only be ravaged by the enemy.

But if you don't go to the battlefield, you don't have a chance?

Yu Wuwang narrowed his eyes slightly: "You don't necessarily have to go to the barracks, I think you are also a talented person, it is better to go to Jiangcheng to have a look, maybe the right person around Lord Taishou can give advice." ”

Jiang Ping'an's eyes widened, and his face turned red; "I'm afraid this is a little inappropriate, the grass people are just a rough man in the countryside, how dare they appear in front of Lord Taishou?"

"What about the rough people in the countryside? As long as you have enough talent, you can also enter the court, so you just have to rest assured. ”

Jiang Ping'an nodded apprehensively.

According to the words of the National Teacher, it seems that there is nothing wrong with going to Jiangcheng, I have a talent to learn, but I don't have the opportunity to show my ambitions, if I can really follow Lord Taishou, I will naturally have a good future in the future!

Thinking of this, Jiang Ping'an's gratitude to Yu Hopeless was a little more: "The grass people are willing to give it a try!" Thank you for showing the way to the grass people. ”

Yu Wuwang smiled and said, "I just don't want to bury talents." ”

While the people in the hut were talking, a man quietly poked his head out in a corner not far away, and his inquiring eyes swirled back and forth on the dilapidated door, as if he was puzzled about what was going on.

Xiao Hei coughed lightly: "What are you hiding here, what are you peeking at?" ”

The man was struggling, and he didn't even notice that someone appeared behind him quietly, and replied truthfully: "Of course I'm looking at the National Teacher!" It's really strange, why is an ordinary girl picked up on the side of the road actually familiar with the national teacher! The river god festival in our village has been going on for so many years, and it was okay in the past, but this year there was a big incident, this must be the personal vendetta of the National Teacher! ”

Xiao Hei sneered, "You also think too highly of yourself. ”

"Hmph, we, aren't you from our village? It's really telling! The man turned his head suddenly, and happened to meet Xiao Hei's smiling gaze: "I'm sorry, I'm really not from you here." ”

The man recognized Xiao Hei's face, when the river god sacrifice, Yu Wuwang and others confronted the villagers, Xiao Hei was the one who stood in front of Yu Wuwang, and he was very impressed.

"What do you see is that?" The man pointed behind Xiao Hei, and while Xiao Hei looked back, he pulled his legs and ran towards the village, but before he could run two steps, he tripped over the stone and let out an earth-shattering scream.

There was such a big commotion outside, which naturally attracted the attention of the people in the room, and Yu Wuwang was the first to walk out of the door, and it was this scene that he saw in front of him.

A villager dressed in coarse linen clothes sat on the ground, holding his left foot tightly with his hand, and screaming in pain from time to time, while Xiao Hei squatted beside him helplessly, with a little disdain in his eyebrows.

"It's a waste to even do something as simple as running away!"

The others also ran out of the door, unlike these outsiders, Jiang Ping'an and Man Man recognized this person's face almost immediately: "Why are you here?" ”

Xiao Heiyu reported: "This person has been peeking, I saw that he was an ordinary villager and didn't care, I never expected that he wanted to escape, he was tripped by a stone, and fell on his heels." ”
