Ai Qiaoqiao grinded hard and hard, and finally persuaded the Lan family to follow her back to Huai'an City.

They were accompanied by Aunt Ji.

Ai Qiaoqiao has always felt that she can't understand Aunt Ji.

Even though Aunt Ji has a deep friendship with her father, every time she sees Aunt Ji, she feels that the other party's eyes are hiding something that others can never touch.

After getting into the carriage, Aunt Ji only said hello to the Lan family, and then sat silently in the carriage without making a sound.

The carriage drove out of Xiaofang Village, and not far from the entrance of the village, Lan suddenly became agitated.

"Stop!" She lifted the curtain as if she was about to get out of the car.

Ai Qiaoqiao was frightened and hurriedly supported the Lan family.

"Mother, what are you going to do?"

"Stop, I forgot to bring your father's knife out."

"Knives?" Ai Qiaoqiao then remembered that the set of chef's knives left by her father was still under Lan's bed.

It's just a set of knives, and even if the rebels enter the village, they won't necessarily be able to see those things.

Although the knives were extremely sharp, they were used for cooking, and there were no gold or silver inlays on them, so those people might not be interested.

The carriage stopped, and Lan jumped out of the carriage without saying a word, and hurried towards the village.

Ai Qiaoqiao reluctantly jumped out of the car and said to Ye Bing, "I'll chase my mother, please wait here." ”

Ye Bing didn't have any opinions with the guys in Yicaotang, and although Aunt Ji didn't speak, she didn't show any impatience.

Ai Qiaoqiao chased Lan into the village.

But when she chased her to the old mansion, there was no trace of the Lan family.

"Mother!" Ai Qiaoqiao panicked and shouted.

She looked around the main room and the side room, but only saw her father's set of knives on the bed, and the room was empty.

"Mother, don't scare me, where are you!" Ai Qiaoqiao was about to cry.

Seeing that she was about to leave the village, she lost her mother, how could this happen.

She turned to the back of the room, and at that moment she suddenly heard a low voice coming from the side of the courtyard wall.

Ai Qiaoqiao followed the sound to look for it, only to see Lan helping a man covered in blood to enter the courtyard through the back door.

“…… Mother, you ......" Ai Qiaoqiao was startled.

Lan also had a lot of blood on her body, but she didn't care, helped the person into the courtyard, and closed the door of the backyard with her backhand.

"Qiaoqiao, come over and help." Lan said calmly.

Ai Qiaoqiao walked over and waited for her to see the man's dress, and her heart chuckled.

The man was dressed as a soldier, with a large piece of leather armor shattered, one shoulder looked like he had been slashed with a sharp weapon, and half of his body was stained red with blood.

However, the man was conscious, and when he saw Ai Qiaoqiao, his eyes were shining, as if he had seen some rare treasure.

Ai Qiaoqiao walked to the backyard door and looked out, and saw that there was no one outside, so he asked Lan vigilantly, "Mother, who is this person." ”

Lan didn't answer her words, but helped the man to the house with difficulty.

"Mother!" Ai Qiao stomped his foot in a hurry.

She felt more and more that Lan was abnormal.

always said that she would wait for her dead father to come back, but now she suddenly got an unidentified man back, and looking at this dress, he was clearly a person in the army.

The rebellion is approaching, and it is difficult to say that this person is from the rebels......

Ai Qiaoqiao couldn't persuade the Lan family, so he could only go into the house to help the Lan family take care of the injured man.

Fortunately, there were still a lot of good medicines in the house where the night was gone, and Ai Qiaoqiao took them, and Lan gave the medicine to the man, and the blood on the man's body quickly stopped.

“…… The rebels are coming this way...... I'm worried about you...... So desperately escaped...... Do you really believe me? I'm ...... like this."

Ai Qiaoqiao stood outside the door with a basin of water and eavesdropped on the conversation between the man and the Lan family.

Intermittently, she couldn't really hear it.

Lan didn't say anything, but she could hear her mother's low sobs.

What's going on?

Ai Qiaoqiao had a question in his head.

Who is this person, as if the Lan clan trusts him very much.

She thought about it carefully, but she didn't find such a person in her memory.

Seeing that he is also much younger than the Lan family, he should not be her mother's family, she has not seen her mother's family for so many years.

She was thinking when there was the sound of hurried footsteps behind her.

"Madam, no, rebels have been found around here!" The guy from Yicaotang walked quickly into the courtyard, "Lady Lan, we have to leave quickly." ”

Ai Qiaoqiao exclaimed, "What about Sister Ye Bing?" ”

The guy from Yicaotang said, "She went to lure the rebels away, and we just drove the carriage into the village safely, so you can quickly call Mrs. Lan out." ”

Ai Qiaoqiao hurriedly pushed open the door.

In the room, Lan lowered his head and wiped his eyes.

The strange man was sitting in a chair, half of his body already wrapped in a white cloth, and he was holding her father's set of knives in his hand, rubbing the handle lightly.

Looking at the man's demeanor, Ai Qiaoqiao couldn't help but be in a trance.

The way he caressed the hilt of the knife with care and affection was very similar to that of her father.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Lan and the man all looked up.

Ai Qiaoqiao came back to her senses, "Mother, rebels have been found outside the village, I'm afraid it's not safe here, let's go quickly." ”

"Qiaoqiao." Lan Shi Zhengse said, "We're going to take him with us." ”

"He ......" Ai Qiaoqiao was a little speechless.

What's wrong with her mother, although the other party is injured, but in this case, she has to take him with her before she finds out the identity of the other party...... It's also too unsafe.

The guy from Yicaotang saw a scene in the house at the door, and whispered to Ai Qiaoqiao: "Madame, don't worry, with us, nothing will happen." ”

Ai Qiaoqiao thought about it and felt that what he said made sense.

Those people in Yicaotang are all kung fu, even if that person has any bad intentions, they can find out in time.

Ai Qiaoqiao helped Lan out of the door, time was pressing, and he didn't have time to change Lan's blood-stained clothes.

The guys in Yicaotang in the back helped the injured man.

Lan frequently looked back at the man.

Ai Qiaoqiao was irritable but couldn't speak, so she could only urge the Lan family to go faster.

When the two of them left the courtyard, they saw the carriage parked in the opposite path.

Ai Qiaoqiao didn't see the person driving the car in front of her, she helped Lan Shi to speed up her pace and walked towards the carriage.

"Madame, be careful!" Someone shouted behind him.

Don't think about it, it must be the guys from Yicaotang who found something wrong.

But how can Ai Qiaoqiao be just a fourteen or five-year-old child, and he is holding the Lan family, even if he hears the warning, he doesn't react.

The curtain of the carriage on the opposite side suddenly lifted, and more than a dozen soldiers in leather armor and holding blades jumped out of the carriage, slashing towards Ai Qiaoqiao and the Lan clan.

Ai Qiaoqiao's first reaction was to hug Lan tightly.

She's going to protect her mother!

This was what her father had entrusted to her on his deathbed, and when he was gone, her mother gave it to her.
