"Squeak", Ruoyu came in with freshly boiled water, put it aside and was cold, and ran to the side of the bed to see Luo Ziqi's current situation, tears fell straight down, which made Luo Ziqi a little overwhelmed.

"What's wrong?"

Luo Ziqi's voice was a little weak and hoarse because of the medicine just now.

"Miss, Ruoyu is worried about you, look at you, you won't take care of yourself, Ruoyu is useless, just let Miss catch the wind and cold so uncomfortable, it's Ruoyu who didn't do her job well, Miss punished Ruoyu, it's Ruoyu who didn't take care of Miss..."

A series of apologies and self-blame smashed Luo Ziqi was a little confused, this little girl is all to blame herself? Luo Ziqi was actually a little angry and funny, Ruoyu just cared too much.

"Shut up! Don't cry! ”

Luo Ziqi's voice was a little stern, although it was a little weak, but the momentum in it still existed.

In an instant, Ruoyu seemed to be so frightened that she stopped crying, just sobbing and smoking.

"I don't blame you, it's none of your business, do you know?"

Luo Ziqi comforted a little helplessly for a moment, because he was not very good at comforting, and finally added a sentence "Don't cry, don't follow me if you cry again..."

Ruoyu choked up, and hurriedly shook her head and said, "Miss, Ruoyu doesn't cry, Miss, don't rush Ruoyu away..."

Luo Ziqi looked at Ruoyu who said with a serious face that she didn't cry don't want to drive her away, and then looked at A-Ning, who was standing next to her, who was obviously smiling, a little helpless, how could she never find out that Ruoyu was still a straightforward person who didn't have a city government at all.

The innocent Luo Ziqi felt that she shouldn't hide it from her.

Looking at such Ruoyu, Luo Ziqi couldn't help but think of when such Ruoyu finally grew into his own maid in the palace, and anything unsightly Ruoyu could be completed without emotion.

No, it's right to hide it from her, Luo Ziqi thought like this again, you protected me in the last life, let me protect you in this life, that = such a dirty thing must not let such a dirty thing defile such a rain

A-Ning finally held back a smile and said: "Ruoyu, when will Miss drive you away, stand up quickly and don't kneel, otherwise Miss will really be angry and don't want you." ”

"Really?"

Ruoyu looked dark after hearing this, and Ah Ning glanced at Luo Ziqi again, and saw that Luo Ziqi was indeed not angry, so he stood up with confidence.

"Miss, are you thirsty? Would you like to drink water? ”

Ruoyu asked when she stood up and saw that Luo Ziqi's face was getting worse and worse.

"Hmm."

Luo Ziqi had a weak voice.

"Come, Miss."

Ruoyu hurriedly picked up the water and fed it to Luo Ziqi little by little.

As soon as I drank the second spoonful, the lord and the lady came.

"The slave has seen the old lady."

"Well, how is Xiaoqi?" The master's focus was all on Luo Ziqi, and he waved them casually to ask them not to be polite.

"Doctor, how are you going to go and show the little girl?" Master Luo said to the doctor he brought behind him.

"Yes, sir."

When the doctor heard this, he took the medicine box and walked towards Luo Ziqi. Putting the medicine box aside, opening the compartment on the lowest floor, took out a silk handkerchief, and put it on Luo Ziqi's hand before starting to take her pulse.

Luo Ziqi glanced at A Ning, A Ning gave her a reassuring look, Luo Ziqi let the doctor give her pulse, and kept quiet, A Ning's medical skills could still be trusted.

"How's it going?"

Mrs. Luo asked anxiously.

"Back to Mrs., Miss is just infected with a cold, some fever, no big problem, wait for the old man to prescribe a pair of medicine to Miss three times a day, at most three days can be cured."

The doctor took the silk handkerchief and put it back in its place, and said to Mrs. Luo.

"That's good, that's good."

Mrs. Luo sat on the edge of the bed and took Luo Ziqi's hand, and looked at the pale Luo Ziqi with pity.

"Xiao Zhao, go and take the doctor to prescribe medicine and get the silver."

Luo Xiangguo was relieved when he heard that Luo Ziqi was fine, and ordered his subordinates to take the doctor to prescribe medicine.

"Yes, sir, doctor, please come with me here." Xiao Zhao withdrew from the door with the doctor.

"Mother, I'm fine, go back."

Luo Ziqi lay on the bed and looked at Mrs. Luo, who was still worried about her, and spoke. I don't want them to worry too much.

"My mother will accompany you for a while, when you were a child, you had to be accompanied by your mother when you were sick."

Mrs. Luo looked at Luo Ziqi with a loving face, raised her hand and touched Luo Ziqi's hair, as if she was a child, warm and familiar.

"Mother..."

Luo Ziqi's voice was a little hoarse, and his eyes were moist for a moment.

"Sleep, sleep, rest for a while, and when the medicine is decocted, my mother will call you to get up and drink the medicine."

Mrs. Luo tucked the corner of the quilt for Luo Ziqi and gently patted the position of her arm.

"Hmm."

Luo Ziqi closed his eyes obediently.

Luo Ziqi, who rarely slept so peacefully, actually fell asleep immediately, and when Mrs. Luo was called up again to take the medicine, Luo Ziqi was still a little surprised, she thought, maybe it was because of A-Ning's medicine.

Luo Ziqi ruthlessly smothered the bowl of black medicine, and handed over a candied fruit in front of him, Luo Ziqi opened his mouth and took it, thank you, Auntie

Mrs. Luo didn't say anything, touched Luo Ziqi's hair, and put Luo Ziqi down.

"Well, take a good rest, mother will wait for you to fall asleep before leaving."

"Hmm."

Luo Ziqi closed his eyes, felt the warmth from Mrs. Luo's hand, and unconsciously fell asleep again, which is really good.

I had no dreams all night, and I slept until dawn.

When Luo Ziqi opened his eyes, he was stabbed by the strong sunlight outside, squinted slightly, and got used to it for a while.

The September sun shouldn't be as scorching as it gets, and the weather must be fine today.

Because of Luo Ziqi's illness yesterday, Mrs. Luo reluctantly refused to let Luo Ziqi go to greet her in the morning, and Luo Ziqi was not in the mood to deal with the energetic old woman, which was the best.

After breakfast, Luo Ziqi sneaked out again, she wanted to go to the woman who was deliberately holding the doll to have a look.

I went to Zuixue Building to find Jiang Yichen first, and then we went to the place used to take in some poor people in the suburbs of Beijing.

The winding alleys, some crowded houses, although crowded, seem quite harmonious, in addition to individual quarrels, accompanied by the sound of cooking, the sound of children crying, and the sound of vendors can be heard in the distance

This homeless person was unexpectedly unexpected, and I thought it was not very good, but now it looks quite warm, a bit of a paradise, and it would be nice to plant some more flowers

Luo Ziqi glanced at Jiang Yichen with some appreciation.

Jiang Yichen pulled his sleeves a little embarrassed, and then said:

"In fact, these people are very kind-hearted, so a group of people can get along well, we find someone to teach them some weaving or something, they can make their own and sell it on the street, so that they can barely support their families, and we will help them get through if they are not enough."

"Hmm."

Luo Ziqi nodded and looked around quietly.

"Here we are."

Jiang Yichen stopped at the door of the last house on this street and said to Luo Ziqi.

The house in front of him was exactly the same as the layout in front of him, but it was a little unexpectedly desolate, Luo Ziqi stopped for a while, and then gently pushed the door open.

As soon as you open the door, what you see is not an empty courtyard, to be precise, it is indeed an empty courtyard, and there are many bamboo poles in the courtyard, and a layer of white cloth is placed on it, covering the entire courtyard, and you can't see where the owner is.

Luo Ziqi turned his head to look at Jiang Yichen and wanted to ask what was going on, but when he turned around, he found that Jiang Yichen, who was supposed to be standing behind him, was nowhere to be seen.

Luo Ziqi's eyebrows jumped, and he walked forward calmly, passing through layers of white cloth.

A black shadow swept behind Luo Ziqi, Luo Ziqi turned around suddenly, but there was nothing, and then the other side of the afterglow appeared again, Luo Ziqi quickly turned his head again but there was nothing, Luo Ziqi clenched the short blade hidden in the sleeve in his hand, and looked around vigilantly.

I don't know why that black shadow doesn't appear anymore.

Luo Ziqi was not careless, he was still nervous, until the last layer of white cloth, Luo Ziqi still saw a rickety figure over there, and it seemed that he was still holding something in his arms.

Luo Ziqi stood behind the white cloth and gently picked out a corner, and a woman in white clothes was leaning over, holding a mutilated doll in her arms, not knowing what to say in a low voice.

Luo Ziqi tried to make out what she was talking about, as if she was telling a story, and Luo Ziqi heard the woman say:

"Xiao'er, Xiao'er for the mother, the mother will tell you a bedtime story, you have to be obedient, don't make trouble for the mother anymore, be good..."

The woman patted the doll with the missing leg in her arms, and her movements were gentle.

"Once upon a time there was a small village, there were ten families living in it, they had a rule that the children born in this village whether they marry a wife and have children must be with the people who exist inside, and they can't be involved with the people outside, otherwise they will be punished, two of the families gave birth to a boy and a girl in the same year, naturally they set a baby for the two of them, the two grew up together, childhood sweethearts, and they are also satisfied with each other, the two should have been like this until they became adults and could get married and have children to spend this life in peace. But the night before the girl and her death, she was defiled by a group of robbers..."

The woman paused, trembling imperceptibly, then seemed to calm her mind before continuing

"The girl who lost her virginity was abused by the people of the village, saying that she was shameless and shameless, and she endured their abuse every day, until one day she found that her belly began to grow, and she was a little flustered and went to her future husband for help, she thought he would help her, but the man was very kind to her on the surface, and then settled her, saying that she was asking for a doctor, but she went to the village chief behind her back, and then she was asked to dip the pig cage, and to kill the girl and the evil seed in her belly, They thought that they would be able to protect their village's reputation, so the girl was immersed in the pig cage like this, Xiao'er, you also feel sorry for that girl, don't you? ”

The woman paused again, hugged the mutilated doll in her arms, as if drawing strength from it, and then continued in a suppressed voice:

"What do you think happened to that girl, whether she died, and what happened to that child?"

Luo Ziqi was a little speechless by the woman's low laughter, and then thought to herself, "The girl didn't die, the child didn't die, or died later..."

"That's right!"

Luo Ziqi actually said what he thought in his heart, and actually got a response from a person, Luo Ziqi turned his head suddenly, and the woman who was in front of him disappeared at some point, but appeared behind him at this time.
