Suddenly, there was a sound of metal hitting stones, from the feet of the big man, he looked down, it was indeed a small copper mirror, rolled down to the feet, bent down to pick up the copper mirror, take a closer look, the mirror is carved around a circle of flowers, the handle is tied to a colorful Hui, at a glance, it is a woman's thing.

The big man looked back suspiciously at the few people who had walked out of the city, and shouted, "You guys, wait a minute!" ”

"Uncle Lu, what's wrong again?" Seeing this, the little girl was anxious, snatched the bronze mirror in his hand, and said, "Ah, this bronze mirror is warm, just let Zhang Mazi carry it, why is he so careless!" ”

Seeing that her eyes were dodging and drifting, Dahan became even more suspicious, turned around and strode towards Xiaoguo and them.

"Who the hell are you?" By the light of the fire, Dahan carefully looked at the three newly recruited "bandits".

I saw that they were dressed in a low-key manner, but the fabrics were of high quality, obviously not because they were downtrodden and went up the mountain and fell into the grass, and they saw the small fruits with fine skin and tender meat, just like the appearance of a rich boy, and the young man and the old man next to her looked more like a scholar and housekeeper of a rich and noble family!

Sima Mingze had broken free from the shackles of the bandits, and hurriedly pointed to his throat, and then to the little girl, and kept gesturing.

"Uncle Lu, I forgot to tell you that a few of them can't speak, they're all dumb!" The little girl secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a dry smile.

"Dumb? How did Nuan'er know that they wanted to join the gang? Dahan had roughly guessed the reason, and smiled angrily.

"Well...... the little girl said, and countless reasons flashed through her thoughts.

If they said it and wrote it, Uncle Lu will definitely let them do it again in the same way, what should I do?

By the way, her eyes lit up.

"Nuan'er, I can read lip language!" The little girl said complacently in order to find a just right reason.

The big man stretched out his hand and put a little on the three of Xiaoguo.

Sima Mingze only felt that his throat was loose, and he rushed out of his mouth: "You are talking nonsense!" It's clear that you're just them, and they forcibly arrested us? ”

The big man was furious, and said sharply: "Nuan'er, what's going on?" Have you forgotten that the rules that your father set before his death are not true? ”

The little girl still wanted to argue, but seeing that he was really annoyed, she swallowed the words that came to her lips raw, her face flushed, and she lowered her head and said, "Nuan'er naturally won't forget!" ”

"And you!" The big man said angrily to the thieves who accompanied the little girl, "Each person will receive fifty boards!" If there is a next time, you will get out of the cottage, and you are not allowed to step into the cottage for half a step! ”

The bandits trembled and were ordered to retreat.

"A few frightened, please follow me to the guest room for a while, and you can leave by yourself as soon as it dawns tomorrow!" Dahan's face softened, and he hugged his fists and apologized to the three of Xiaoguo.

Xiaoguo sat in a warm and suitable room, holding a cup of tea, listening to the autumn breeze whining outside the window, feeling that what had happened in the past few hours was like a dream.

The three of them spoke in rare silence, each thinking about their own thoughts.

After a long time, Xiaoguo opened his mouth to break the silence.

"Guess what punishment the little girl will receive?"

"Master doesn't have to worry about her, she is to blame for all this!" Sima Mingze said this, but in his heart, he faintly sweated for the little girl.

That man is obviously not a master who will show favoritism, think about the group of thieves who were dragged back to the room after being beaten fifty boards, you can see that as the culprit, the punishment must not be light!

Jiang Shang said: "In the final analysis, that female doll didn't really hurt us at all, although these people are nominally thieves, they are polite and fair, more than a star and a half stronger than those sanctimonious gentlemen in the world!" Why don't we go over and plead for that kid and let Leader Lu spare Miss Nuan'er! ”

"Father, that's what I wanted, leave this matter to me! You and Mingze are waiting for my good news! Xiaoguo volunteered.

She saw that these bandits behaved in a bad way, and they had an appetite for themselves, so they had the heart to make friends early.

"Master, I'm going too!" Sima Mingze hurriedly got up and said.

Seeing Xiaoguo looking at him with a smile, he blushed and said stubbornly: "If I hadn't shown off Master's cooking skills in front of Miss Nuan'er, maybe she wouldn't have moved the idea of taking us up the mountain!" Actually, I can understand her feelings! ”

The little girl who caught them up the mountain, named Hu Nuan'er, was the orphan of the late old village owner Hu Ke.

Speaking of this Hu Ke, he can also be regarded as a generation of heroes, although he fell into the mountains, but he is extremely righteous and principled, as the so-called thief also has a way!

He set a rule, only rob money, not life, leave a line with others, do not forcibly take the food of people's lives, and save their lives! Therefore, although Zhanshan has been the king for so many years, he has never been involved in any official enemies, which is really a great miracle!

Just five years ago, Hu Ke died of illness, and entrusted his eight-year-old daughter Hu Nuan'er to his brother-in-law Lu Qiao to take care of him.

Hu Ke loved Hu Nuan'er very much before his death, and he responded to everything he wanted. But there is one exception, that is, no matter how coquettish Nuan'er is, she refuses to compromise and takes her to play outside the cottage!

Therefore, after Hu Ke passed away, although Lu Qiao didn't know the reason why his righteous brother imprisoned Nuan'er, he guessed that there were a lot of jackals in the mountains, and he was afraid that Nuan'er would be frightened and hurt, so he didn't allow Nuan'er to walk out of the cottage gate for a while!

When Nuan'er was older and had learned martial arts, he couldn't stop him anymore, so he had to let go and allow her to wander around, but before the sunset, he had to return to the cottage!

Besides, this Nuan'er is also a weirdo, although she grew up in this group of rough men since she was a child, and it is inevitable that she lacks some of her daughter's delicateness, but she has another surprising hobby, that is, she has been very interested in cooking on the stove since she was a child!

In addition to practicing, she spent the rest of her time in the kitchen, and by the age of six, she was able to stir-fry vegetables and make soups in a way that was surprisingly delicious.

The brothers in the village all know that the owner of the village loves, and if anyone goes out, they will bring some small snacks to eat outside and give them to her as gifts.

These foods that have never been seen before, for Nuan'er, are even happier than getting gold, silver, jewelry, rouge and gouache!

Whenever she was like a treasure, she tasted it carefully, and then she didn't leave the door, and spent ten days and a half in the kitchen tinkering until she made the same food again.

Let's say, Xiaoguo circled around the cottage for a while, held his forehead and sighed, and said: "I didn't expect that this village is so big, and I don't remember to walk for so long. Knowing this, I called my father-in-law and Mingze to come together! ”

She muttered to herself, as if she didn't realize that she was a road idiot!

Two patrolling bandits passed by the fork in the road ahead, and Xiaoguo hurriedly stopped them: "May I ask these brothers, where is the room of the owner of Nuan'er Village?" ”

"Little white face, what are you doing with our village master's room?" A thief asked, his voice like a broken gong, and his tone was very unfriendly!

"The dog is stunned," the companion on the side hurriedly pulled him and said in a low voice, "Don't make trouble, because of him, Lu Zhai has punished many brothers!" In my opinion, this kid looks like a dog, nine times out of ten, he was caught by the owner of the small village to be the husband of the village! ”

"Yo!" The dog was stunned and slapped his thigh, and suddenly realized, he mysteriously attached to his companion's ear, and replied in a still loud voice, "Stay two, what you said makes sense, so we have to be polite to him!" ”

"Dude, I can't see it, you're pretty open-minded! At this time, we help him, so that he and the owner of the small village smoothly private meeting, maybe in the future, he will remember the kindness of you and me, will share an extra piece of wine and meat, and eat with us! The dog was stunned, and he squeezed his eyebrows and said.

The dog listened and said yes.

Xiaoguo heard their "whispers" clearly, feeling both funny and helpless.

The two bandits on patrol have been discussed.

Gou Lengzi turned his gaze to Xiaoguo again, his expression was complicated, and he said in a strange tone: "Hey! Little white face, no, this one-"

He racked his brains to think about how to call Xiaoguo, stayed on the sidelines, and took it for him: "This son!" The owner's room is here, you go with us! ”

"There are two of you!" Xiao Guo couldn't help but laugh.

With the two of them, they passed by the guest room and moved to another separate courtyard.

"This is the residence of the owner of the small village!" The dog's stunned face was full of meat, and he squeezed out a smile with great difficulty, and said to Xiaoguo.

"Childe go in on his own! We're quitting first! Duer lowered his head and smiled, dragging the dog to the distance.

"Stay two, why are you in such a hurry?" The dog was forcibly pulled away, and said a little angrily.

"Fool, don't let the owner of the small village take a look, she is a girl's family in the end, beware of being seen and angry, doing bad things with good intentions, go away! Come on! The speed of the two feet did not decrease, and patiently explained.

"Yes, yes! Or do you think about it! The dog was stunned and turned from anger to joy, and said.

Seeing that the two of them were talking, Xiaoguo had disappeared into the night, shook his head and felt speechless, and walked into the courtyard.

There are three wings in the courtyard, and only the easternmost room is lit.

Before Xiaoguo approached, he heard someone inside suddenly complain.

"Uncle Lu doesn't care about Nuan'er anymore? He punished Nuan'er so ruthlessly! ”

Then I heard that the land bridge was cut to the ground.

"Nuan'er, as the owner of the village, you took the lead in breaking the rules of the village, and the brothers in the gang were all punished because of your willfulness! If you don't set an example for them in the form of self-punishment, how can you convince them in the future and how can you stand up for it?! ”

"Uncle Lu, Nuan'er is wrong! Be willing to accept the punishment! ”

"It's good that you know what you're wrong, come, stretch out your hand!"

Xiaoguo stood still in the courtyard, hesitating whether to intervene at this time, when he heard a crisp sound of heavy objects shattering from the house, followed by Ji Nuan'er's scream.

Xiaoguo's heart jumped, and he didn't want to think about it, so he pushed the door and broke in, and shouted urgently: "Lu Daxia, Nuan'er girl is still young, please be merciful!" ”

There were rows of wooden shelves in the room, and the shelves were filled with books, and it was clearly a study.

Ji Nuan'er sat next to the bookcase by the window, Lu Qiao stood beside her, a stack of white paper was spread on the desk, an inkstone was still flipped on the ground, and the ink was scattered from the desk to the ground.
