Chapter 156: First Meeting

Just across from them was a group of soldiers camping there, and it might be time for dinner, and the cooks were preparing a simple lunch with a few helpers.

The rice in the pot looks like it's almost ready, bursts of fragrant, there is flour next to it, and an uncle with a thick waist and a round waist is pinching the steamed buns, the flour doesn't seem to be very good, it looks even rough, and the color is dull, this may still be a gray steamed bun if it is steamed, but this is much better than the days when they lived with snakes and rats.

These are the things that people eat, in order to arouse people's real desire to be full, Luo Qingwen actually swallowed saliva from a distance, otherwise, he was afraid that he would be like a group of thin and sallow children in front of him, drooling.

Many people crossed the creek and walked towards the army, as if they were being controlled and cast spells, even if the other party had a sharp weapon in their hands, they did not feel fear, but they also felt a fear that was more tormenting than death, that is, hunger.

"Stop! Who told you to come over?! Go away for the laborers, a bunch of hungry dogs, and you won't be able to eat for a while! "It seems to understand the intentions of these refugees, and there are soldiers with knives to stop them dozens of paces away.

These refugees didn't dare to make a mistake, after all, the long spears and short knives that flashed with cold light all carried a heavy bloody aura, as if to tell them that if they dared to go further, they would also become the souls of the dead under this knife.

But everyone didn't leave, they all took a few steps back, sitting on the grass of the stream with a shriveled belly, someone looked at the big steamed bun, and unconsciously grabbed the weeds on the ground and sent it to his mouth, as if he was not eating grass, but the steamed buns in the soldier's pot, his eyes were blank, but he left muddy tears.

Luo Qingwen also stared at the place where the fragrance wafted out, at this moment, the desire in his eyes had never been so strong, and he even wanted him to do something about it, even if it would expose his identity and lose his life.

Everyone watched from afar, and they didn't dare to act rashly, but at this time, in their crowd, a little girl mustered up the courage to walk over, holding a green cabbage in her hand, and behind her was her father, but she only dared to watch her from a distance.

However, the little girl's hair had already been cut into a short hair on the top of her head, her face was dark, and her clothes couldn't see the original color, if Luo Qingwen hadn't been with her for so long, she might not have been able to tell that this was a girl's house, and she was a dirty boy at all.

"Official, although this little cabbage has lost some weight, it should be delicious, and we don't have any cooking tools, so it's a waste to hold it, so I'll give it to you."

Of course, the soldier didn't recognize that this was a little girl, after all, no girl would look like this, "Hey, stinky boy, what do you think?" Do you think we're going to give you dry food? If you want to be beautiful, you can keep it for yourself. After saying that, he began to drive people away.

This little girl can also speak, and she is not angry when she is pushed several times, and she is not afraid, she said: "Official, you wait, you wait, we don't mean this, the current situation, a little gray rice bran is comparable to silver, what are my small dishes?" I just wanted to ask the official to borrow something. ”

The man thought it was interesting, this kid didn't look very old, and he wasn't afraid of him: "Borrow something?" What do you want to borrow? ”

The little girl said, "I want to borrow your saber and cut down a few branches over there to make a self-defense device." ”

The soldier saw that he was indeed very young, and that it was indeed better to have a tool for self-defense in this refugee pile, so he looked at the rice that was about to be cooked in the pot, decisively put away the little cabbage, and then gave the knife to the little girl: "Okay, but I can tell you, don't play any tricks, if I find out, you don't have good fruit to eat, you know?" ”

"Absolutely no tricks! I'll just cut two of them from the crooked-necked tree by the bank of your river. ”

The little girl took the knife and immediately ran to that side, and at first the soldier returned to the supervisor, but when he saw that he did not move, she let down her guard again, and took out a pot from the salute and began to cook the cabbage soup.

Luo Qingwen couldn't help but be curious, what did this little girl want to do?

I saw that after the girl saw that those people did not look at her again, she casually cut off a few long and thin branches, ran back and returned the knife to the soldier, and the soldier waved his hand and let him go away, and the little girl hurriedly answered, with a snickering joy in her eyes, and was about to leave.

Luo Qingwen was attracted by the flickering brightness in her eyes, this must be a very smart and lovely girl, I don't know why, Luo Qingwen was amazed by the light in it, and suddenly couldn't take his eyes off.

However, this snickering was seen by the soldiers as an ulterior motive, and he immediately stopped the person: "Wait! Something is wrong with you. ”

The little girl seemed to be frightened when she heard this, and she said in disbelief, "Official, what do you say?" I've cut down the branches, thank you. ”

"The branch you used for self-defense didn't even cut out a sharp point, and it was full of green leaves, what are you defending yourself against? Is he a fool? ”

It's like a lie has been exposed, and the kid obviously can't even finish his words, which proves even more that the official thinks in his heart, this kid must be doing something!

"Why don't you say it soon? Is it really a knife for labor and management? Believe it or not, I took your leg off! ”

"Official, what's wrong with you? I didn't do anything bad, I just cut a branch, you can let me go! The kid was so frightened that he cowered in a crowd of soldiers, Luo Qingwen looked at it tightly, he was really worried that if this little girl really showed her stuff, she would definitely be beaten by these people, but what did she want to do? Luo Qingwen was worried and curious.

As soon as she heard that the official was going to move seriously, the little girl was so scared that she recruited everything: "Official! I'm wrong, can I explain everything? Don't kill me! ”

Thinking that this kid really didn't have a good heart, the soldier immediately burst into tears: "Then say it quickly!" ”

"Actually, we just came from the west, and everyone was resting, so I went through the woods to the stream to find water to drink, which was much deeper than this upstream, and I saw a dead man floating in it, and she had gold and silver on her head, and a burden on her back, and I knew that there must be something valuable in it without looking, but I couldn't reach it, so I came up with such a way."

As soon as Luo Qingwen heard it, he saw through her deception, everyone was indeed resting just now, but he was awake at that time, and this girl was obviously sitting there.

"Are you telling the truth?" As soon as they heard about the gold and silver treasures, several officials were moved.

The girl nodded hurriedly, her eyes full of fear: "It's true, the little one really doesn't plan to do anything unfavorable, official, let me go!" ”

At this time when he was a soldier, he didn't have the heart to care about this little fart kid anymore, what really made him excited was that the person who drowned in the lower reaches of the stream might have a lot of property on him, so how could he miss the pie in the sky?

He put a knife at the little girl's neck, and then snatched the stick she had chopped off from her hand: "Brothers, follow me to have a look, and I will eat this meal when I come back later." ”

"But there are so many refugees here..."

Leave a few people and carry the guys, are you afraid that they won't be able to rob them? The official who took the lead obviously didn't take these people seriously, and when the little girl heard this, she immediately had an idea: "I vaguely saw that it should be a rich lady, there are a lot of valuable things on her body, and there are two jade bracelets on her hands, official, if you want to go, can you take me with you, after all, I found it..."

So the remaining few soldiers who looked at the steamed buns were also moved, you said that if it was real money, it would be fine, and it would be nothing to bring back everyone to divide equally, but the gold and silver jewelry or something is also divided into color and condition, if the eldest brother takes someone to go first and take the good one, this is not reasonable, right?

Seeing that everyone has a lot of complaints about this, to be a team leader, the most important thing is to have a bowl of water, and not to be unfair for a lunch, "That's good, let's go, when the time comes, take what you like, no one will say who can do it?" ”

Of course, this is good, but it's just a meal, everyone is not angry, and there is money to take, who doesn't want to?

The little girl grabbed the official's thigh at the right time, and cried: "Official, I don't want much, you just look at it and give it a little, and all the rest of the filial piety to the uncle, okay?!" ”

"you, you want to be beautiful."

The little girl was forcibly dropped by a group of officials, and the ill-gotten gains that were finally discovered were occupied, she cried sadly, and the dozen soldiers smiled at her disdainfully, and then went to the bottom of the stream together, leaving the little girl alone in the same place and crying aggrievedly.

But the little girl was too young to hold her breath at all, and the official had just walked a few dozen feet away, and the little girl's cry weakened, obviously perfunctory to those soldiers, until she secretly took off her clothes and put those big steamed buns into her clothes one by one, under the temptation of food, the little girl had completely forgotten about fake crying, and her eyes were straight.

Luo Qingwen was frightened behind her, and wanted to tell her to stop and tell her that it was enough, but she couldn't shout, so she could only look at the officers and soldiers in the distance, and her heart was in her throat.

Sure enough, when I heard the voice behind me, it gradually disappeared, and one or two people looked back curiously, why didn't this stinky boy make trouble?

"You! Hold it! ”

The soldiers who saw that something was wrong immediately shouted, and soon everyone reacted, I'm afraid there is no corpse at all, it was completely this kid who came up with a plan to steal their dry food, and they were tricked!

"Dog Niang, see if I don't kill you!" The deceived eldest brother was furious, he was furious, his eyes were red with anger, and he looked like a soldier who had been killed on the battlefield, and the little girl only looked at it, and her legs were weak with fright.

But even in the face of this battle, the little girl still insisted, put the last steamed bun into the torn clothes and started to run, but the officer and soldier ran too fast, and the little girl couldn't outrun him at all, what should I do? Luo Qingwen saw the battle between heaven and man in front of him, he couldn't bear to watch the little girl being caught, once he was caught, what would happen to him, Luo Qingwen couldn't think about it!

No, he has to help her, he has long legs, he must be able to run faster than the little girl, Luo Qingwen rushed out at the last moment, he snatched the burden in the little girl's hand, the little girl first glared at him incredulously, her eyes were full of panic, and fear, the food she finally got was snatched away by someone halfway?

"Don't think about it, run!" Luo Qingwen didn't give her a chance to think, and pulled her to run forward.

There is only one thought in their hearts, and that is not to stop! Don't stop!

Luo Qingwen didn't expect that he hadn't eaten a meal of rat meat for five days that day, it was all fruits to satisfy his hunger, and he was able to take the girl from noon to sunset.

The moment they stopped, Luo Qingwen looked at the clouds in the sky, and thought that he had run to the ends of the earth.

The little girl gasped for breath and couldn't stand up straight, so she could only sit on her knees and couldn't speak.

Halfway through, the two met and laughed.

After that, I don't know what to say, Luo Qingwen finally followed the little girl home, not wandering, but really returning home.

The little girl's home later became their home.

She and his home.

To this day, Luo Qingwen can't forget the feeling that little girl brought him, so gentle and presumptuous, as if there is nothing in this world that can restrain them, they can go anywhere they want to go.

That girl and his first meeting, he will never forget, but when he held Miss Duan's hand that day, why did he still feel that day? He almost mistakenly thought that she was his relative.

That day, how could a little girl gather so many onlookers in the Hou Mansion of Qishan and block the Tang Hou Mansion?

After he talked to Miss Duan, he knew that Miss Duan was a smart person, so it was impossible for her to make trouble in the Hou Mansion at the beginning, she could have another simpler way to negotiate, let the Hou Mansion invite the imperial doctor, with the decisive ability of the Hong family, of course, she would not embarrass her, and she would definitely invite the imperial doctor as she wished.

And at the beginning, although he had already arrived at the Qishan Marquis Mansion, the reason why he had not appeared was because the scene that day was exactly the same as the day she met the little girl, he knew that Miss Duan did not tell the truth, and even made a fuss in the Qishan Marquis Mansion, just to seek justice, so he felt that she was so similar to the little girl.

can only be her daughter, Luo Qingwen can believe that Miss Duan will have similar feelings to her, but why is the surname Duan?

Such a self-directed and self-acting, concealing plan really resembled him, so he couldn't help but want to get close to her, until when he held that hand, he thought he was back to that day eighteen years ago!

But when the Hong clan forced the patrol to arrest Miss Duan, Luo Qingwen became nervous, and the tension was exactly the same as when he saw the little girl being discovered by the officers and soldiers before.

He began to suspect that the little girl was not just her child, but most likely his and the little girl's child.

That's right, not long after that, he married the little girl as his wife.

Luo Qingwen sat in place for almost an hour, and finally couldn't sit still, so he walked out together, if someone hadn't stopped him, he would probably have groped his way out.

"Master Hou, the county lord is making trouble again, don't you really want to take a look?"

Luo Qingwen paused, by the way, Yun An is still sick, but he is not a doctor, and because of this incident, the young master of Miss Duan's family is even more innocent, should he go to visit and apologize?

The words of the subordinate did not dispel his thoughts, but gave him a more legitimate reason to meet Luo Qinghe.

However, the news that he was going to leave the house quickly reached Hong's ears, and it turned out that she was asking her to pick up some things from the house, and the Hou Ye was going to visit the Mirror Garden in a while.

"Master Hou said he was going to Mirror Garden?"

The man gave Hong's affirmative answer again, and said that he should prepare more silk and satin, so that he could give gifts when the time comes, Hong wondered: "People are injured, what kind of silk should they give?" ”

"Madam, you can hurry up, Master Hou seems to be waiting, and he is in a hurry."

Mrs. Hou felt strange at first, but soon understood that Hou Ye was afraid that this was to save the reputation of the Hou Mansion, so she also made up her mind, and now she is going with Hou Ye, can everyone improve her behavior that day?

Thinking about it this way, the Hong family also felt that this was very good, so he asked someone to move out the few Yaluo horses that had just arrived at home, and installed some valuable gadgets, Ruyi copper bells or something, these things to say before, the Hong family was reluctant, but now, for the sake of her own face, she can also go out.

But when she got everything ready and changed her clothes, Luo Qingwen called her back directly in person: "You follow me, I'll go alone." ”

"However, I am the Marquis of Qi Shan, and I shouldn't give this matter with you-"

"Do you think that the emperor made the Fengfu only seal Yun'an? You can think about it at home, too. ”

On that day, the Hong family wanted to put Luo Qinghe in prison, and he had always been haunted by it, so he was even worse for the Hong family than before.
