I'm hungry...

Mu Xiyao's stomach was empty, and every step forward would consume the little strength left in her body. Coupled with the cold wind, it made her feel hungry.

Sit... Sit down for a while...

She came to a street and alley, frowned, moved step by step, to the shadowy corner, and sat down. Frustrated, she clasped her knees tightly with her arms, buried her head in her chest, and curled up in a ball, trying to resist the whistling winter wind as much as possible.

Gollum~

Damn it... I'm hungry... I'm hungry... Don't think about it.... Don't think about it... But... I'm really hungry... My baggage...

The more Mu Xiyao thought about it, the more sad she felt, and the tears in the corners of her eyes gently slid down her cheeks.

Knock, knock, knock... Grunt...

Suddenly, a strange voice sounded in her ears. Mu Xiyao tilted her head and found that it was a boiled egg that came from nowhere, and for some reason, it fell to the ground and happened to roll to her side.

She was about to bend over to pick it up, when she heard the voice of a child, and quickly ducked back into the shadows.

"Mom, the egg you bought for me accidentally fell..."The child pointed to the boiled egg rolling down the alley, and was about to walk over to pick it up.

The mother grabbed him, looked at the deep and dark alley uneasily, and said, "Forget it, if you drop it, you will drop it." I'll go home and make you your favorite sugar bun, okay? ”

"Yes, yes! The steamed buns made of hemp are the most delicious! The child shouted for joy, forgetting the boiled egg that had rolled deep into the alley.

"Then let's go home!"

"Go home! Go home! ”

...

It wasn't until the footsteps of the two gradually faded away that Mu Xiyao dared to poke her head out of the shadows.

She pursed her lips tightly, looked enviously at the backs of the mother and son, and watched them go away. Before she knew it, she had retreated into the shadows.

Perhaps, I once had such a mother who loved me, but I forgot everything. I forgot my loved ones, I forgot my past, I forgot... That home...

Where is my home? Where do I come from? How should I live in the future?

I... I... My home... Where is it...

Mu Xiyao only felt that her mouth was salty. Unintentionally sucked, it was... The taste of missing. But where is my thoughts? [@#爱奇文学 &&&Free Reading]

...

Mutter~~

Her stomach rang again. Mu Xiyao then remembered the matter of the boiled egg.

When she was about to quietly pick up the boiled egg and be so hungry, the scene in front of her made her feel sorry for herself.

That egg... It has been given by people

The intention was shattered. The egg yolk protein was scattered all over the floor. The man complained not even far away.

"Who is so unhygienic to pull everywhere!"

Isn't it? What is the difference between the flat and flat appearance and the yellow and white thing?

Hearing this, Mu Xiyao's heart couldn't help but feel sick. She quickly covered her mouth, got up and ran to a corner, trying to vomit the disgusting thought out of her mouth.

Cough - cough cough... Ahem... Belch... Wow! Belch...

On the street, Ye Liangbei and Mu Xiyuan, who were following her, looked at each other a little puzzled. Spitting so fiercely, it can't be...

There were people coming and going on the street, and only the two of them stood so quietly, which seemed very abrupt.

The official who patrolled the streets noticed the two of them, coughed lightly, beat his palms with the short stick, walked over with his head held high, and asked, "You two..."

Mu Xiyuan's eyes lit up when she saw this person in an official uniform. Pulled Ye Liangbei's sleeve and whispered a few words in his ear.

Ye Liangbei frowned at first, then slowly stretched out, and even smiled a little, and nodded approvingly.

The official looked at him and felt a little nervous. This man... It can't be that there's something wrong there, right?

"Well, brother, come over here." Ye Liangbei beckoned to the official.

"Dry... Do? The official nervously held the short stick in his hand and waved it a few times in a demonstrative manner, "Look... See the stick in my hand?! Beat... It hurts to fight! You guys... What do you guys do! Be honest! ”

Is it a stammer?

Ye Liangbei blinked curiously. "This... Stammering brother, we do have something to do with you. Well, we're all good people, good people! ”

"You, you, you, you, you, you! I'm a normal person! After the official said this, he quickly shut up. Hey? Why did I stutter? Am I really stammering?

Mu Xi Yuan smiled, took out a token directly from Ye Liangbei's waist, and shook it in front of the official's eyes.

What is it? The official saw the token that was very familiar, but he couldn't remember what it was for a while. Suddenly, he was excited, and recalled that there seemed to be a national character written on the sign. Frightened, he knelt down directly: "Little.. The little one meets the National Teacher! Mrs. National Teacher! ”

"Please get up, please get up." Ye Liangbei pretended to be very generous and beckoned upward. "My wife and I are on a private visit to Weifu, remember not to disturb the people!"

"Little... The little one understands! The official knelt on the ground and kowtowed directly.

Mu Xiyuan glared at this unenlightened person angrily. It's said that it's a micro-service, and you're still kneeling on the ground, isn't this afraid of big things?

"That's... The National Division has given you a mission. Ye Liangbei pretended to ask for a while, "You."

... Go and bring the girl in the alley to the National Teacher's Mansion safe and sound. If she asks anything, you don't say anything. ”

The official scratched the back of his head in confusion. In the alley? Girl?

He looked at the deep alley, his heart full of doubt. Will there be anyone in there?

"What are you still doing on your knees! Get up! Mu Xiyuan was about to be angry with these two people. I just wanted to care about my sister's safety. It's good now, people can't care about it, and their identities have been exposed. I dangled it in front of his eyes, I just didn't want him to make a noise... Headache...

"Oh, yes!" The official ignored the strange glances cast at him by others, and calmly got up from the ground. There were also marks on those knees that were darker than elsewhere. After all, in the north, it snows from time to time, and the ground is often not dry, leaving standing water.

...

Seeing that the official cautiously walked into the alley, Ye Liangbei also grabbed Mu Xiyuan's waist naturally, and said in a low voice: "Let's go home first!" Waiting for your sister to come. ”

"Why don't you let that official take my sister back to the Prime Minister's Mansion?" She looked at him admonishingly, "What are you thinking again?" ”

"Heaven must not be divulged." Ye Liangbei smiled slightly and shook the fox fur on his body. The two disappeared in place, and no one was surprised. It's as if there's no one there.

...

Besides, the official was good at talking, so Mu Xiyao persuaded him suspiciously to the National Teacher's Mansion.

"This... Girl. The little one left first. After the official finished speaking, he smeared oil on the soles of his feet and quickly left the gate of the National Teacher's Mansion.

Mu Xiyao stood stupidly at the door of the National Teacher's Mansion, cautiously looking at everything that was even stranger around her.

Helplessly, she could only hold the knocker and knock three times.

"Who?" There was a question in the house.

"I am—" As soon as she spoke, Mu Xiyao paused. Who am I? What am I doing here? Wait, what about the guy in the official uniform?

She looked around, but saw no figure.

"Strange thing... Someone knocked on the door and no one answered... Hell in broad daylight..."

Mu Xiyao heard it very clearly, the people in the National Teacher's Mansion were babbling like this...

...

Funai.

"Huayang, what's going on outside? Is there a knock on the door? At this time, Mu Xiyuan was elegantly cocking her orchid fingers, pinching the blue and white spoon, and slowly stirring the bird's nest porridge in the bowl. It's too cold outside, and I can't stand it when I come back. Fortunately, I went home, there was a stove, and there was a special cook to make hot drinks. It's a pity that this bird's nest porridge is too hot and can't be eaten for a while.

Alas... I don't know how my sister is doing now? Is that official errand reliable?

She lifted the spoon and put it down for a while, and her heart was always in a mess.

"Madame Hui, it's nothing. It was as if something was knocking on the door

The slave went to the door to ask, but no one answered. It must have been blowing too much wind, right? That Hua Yang's eyes flickered a little and slurred.

"Huh?" Mu Xiyuan put down the spoon in her hand, gently leaned on her forehead, and asked, "Huayang... At the beginning, Mrs. Ben saw that you were careful in her work, so she asked you to stay and be a first-class maid. Don't you see that the sisters who came with you were assigned to do something else? ”

"Slave... The slave knows her mistake! Hua Yang was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, "Please... I beg the lady not to drive the slaves out..."

"Then you can talk about it well. Did anyone knock on the door? Mu Xiyuan got up and left the chair and looked at her condescendingly.

"Should... There should be... But... But the slave asked who the man was, and the man... The man replied with only two words, and there was no more. Hua Yang trembled, as if she was very frightened.

Call... Mu Xiyuan sighed. She helped Hua Yang up and said, "Now, Mrs. Ben will give you a chance to mend your ways." Then ask who that person is. Or, you can open a crack in the door, take a sneak peek at what that person looks like, and report back to me. Got it? ”

"Slave... The slave and maid know. Hua Yang knelt down and kowtowed three more times before getting up to say goodbye.

Has my sister forgotten her name? After that, how should she and Lord Ye Xiang's path go?

Mu Xiyuan was dressed in gorgeous clothes and looked into the distance, her eyes full of worry.

Outside the house...
