Wei Qijun calmly recounted his encounter, only occasionally letting out a slight sigh, as if he was just telling the story of others, and he was just a spectator.

Ye Yuning couldn't help but redden: "Don't you have relatives who you can take refuge into?" ”

Wei Qijun pulled the corners of his mouth, as if to keep himself smiling, and he lightly opened his lips:

"No one asks about the poor in the world, and the rich have distant relatives in the mountains, and that's probably it. In this troubled world, others are still too busy to take care of themselves, and how can they have the leisure to take care of other people's affairs.

"I once went to my uncle, but he said that he couldn't keep me, because it was a time of war, the family was short of money and food, and his family was still starving, so he really couldn't have another mouth to eat."

"How could your uncle say such a thing to you?" Ye Yuning, who was a bystander, couldn't help but be angry, how could Wei Qijun also be his nephew, how could he say such a thing?!

Father Ye didn't speak, just stared at the edge of the bed.

"Do you blame your uncle?"

"I used to blame him." Wei Qijun was silent for a while, and then slowly spoke, "Later, in the past few months of wandering, I have experienced hunger and near-death despair, and I am also relieved. Uncle is not only himself at home, he also has parents, wife and children to take care of, in this troubled world, he can only use limited energy to fight for his family, he is just selfish to love his family. ”

It seems that this is just a reason to convince himself, convince himself that his uncle is also in trouble, and Wei Qijun can no longer talk about it. At the end of the day, he was a man of less than twenty years old.

If there was no war, perhaps he would still be studying hard and gaining fame. Maybe his parents will go on a blind date for him and urge him to start a family as soon as possible.

But in the past few months since Nanjun was destroyed, he has experienced a life of outlaw, lost all his property, his parents and younger brothers were all killed, and his uncle was unwilling to take him in, and was forced to live in the rivers and lakes.

Constant wandering, starvation, sickness, loneliness, white-eyedness. Perhaps for a very good person, death is the best relief.

Isn't it also a kind of greatness to live strong when you need a reason to live?

"And what do you plan to do in the future?" Father Ye couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know." When you need a reason to live, what about the future. Wei Qijun really doesn't know what the future should be, he is just trying to convince himself that he wants to live, he must live, no matter what, he must live.

Father Ye couldn't help sighing, "Hard-working children, this world doesn't let people live." ”

The three of them didn't know how to speak, and there was a deathly silence in the air.

A thought suddenly flashed in Ye Yuning's mind, "That's ......"

She opened her mouth to break the ice, she wanted to say that it would be better to stay here, you don't have a place to go right now anyway. But when the words come to the mouth, they can't be spoken.

It's not because I'm a girl, it's not good to say this kind of thing, it's because my family is now facing the embarrassment of running out of food, and Father Ye and her eating by themselves are problems, so how can they keep him anymore.

Ye Yuning thought that he was still angry with Wei Qijun's uncle for being unkind just now, it turned out that no one could choose such a thing.

Some people can enjoy the prosperity of the world just by being born in a powerful family; Some people gritted their teeth and insisted, trying their best but could only crawl on the streets; What do people live for in their lives?

"Little sister, why don't you speak." Wei Qijun saw that Ye Yuning was about to speak, but he fell silent again, thinking that he wanted to ask himself something, but it was difficult to speak.

"Oh, I said it's not too early, you must be hungry, I'll cook."

Wei Qijun raised his eyes and looked out the window, the sun had already tilted westward, half of it was hidden in the clouds, leaving only half exposed, orange red, but dim, not dazzling at all, the sky was slightly blue but a little dark, and the red glow against the stars was particularly dazzling.

Night is about to fall, and it's time to leave.

"Dare to ask Uncle Zun's name?"

"The old man's surname is Ye, his name is Ye Ping, this is the only daughter of the old man called Ye Yuning."

"Thank you Uncle and Little Sister for saving your life." He was about to get out of bed as he spoke, "Great kindness, Wei Qi is unforgettable." ”

"It's not too early, I'm bothering my uncle and little sister today, Qi Jun has received this great favor, if he has a fate, he will repay his uncle and little sister as a cow and a horse, please accept Wei Qijun's worship." If you say that, you will bow down.

Father Ye hurriedly stopped him, "Child, it's getting dark, and your body is weak, how can Uncle let you leave like this, listen to Uncle, stay here tonight." ”

But ...... "Uncle and I just met in the water."

"But what, listen to Uncle, I live here today."

Ye Yuning was also busy staying with him, "You can stay here tonight, I'll cook, but don't leave." "I'm going to go to the kitchen to cook.

Both father and daughter really kept him, and Wei Qijun couldn't refuse anymore.

"Where's the kitchen, I'm going to cook." Wei Qijun has received the grace of saving his life from others, and it is not good to eat other people's food in vain.

"You just rest, how can there be a reason for guests to cook. But you can help me light the fire, I just don't need someone to help me. ”

"Okay."

Ye Yuning couldn't help but smile, "Let's go." ”
