Li Yu stood with a tube of green bamboo, and the bamboo branches in front of him were sparse, and the moonlight was sprinkled and shining under a clump of bamboo. There was a young girl sitting on the ground under the bamboo, a green dress was a little dark in the night, similar to the color of the bamboo forest, so it was difficult for Li Yu to notice, but she was looking up on her face, the cold moonlight reflected on her face, her fair and pretty face, and the glittering tears, but Li Yu looked at it at a glance.

This girl is the girl who played Zhuo Wenjun in a wine shop when he first entered Lizhou City, she was pretending to be a young woman at that time, her hair and clothes were all dressed as women, looking mature and charming, but at this time she looked particularly immature.

Two lines of tears slid down her cheeks quietly, and her shoulders were still twitching, like a spring flower beaten by the rain, weak and delicate, delicate and pitiful.

Li Yu was afraid of scaring her, hesitated for a moment, and then gently knocked on the Xiuzhu beside her, and when the girl turned her head when she heard the sound, she coughed and said, "Auspicious girl? ”

The girl was really startled, but after all, she was first reminded by his knocking on the bamboo, and then heard him call her name, but she was not very afraid, she only curled her legs a little, and hurriedly wiped away her tears: "Who are you?" ”

Because Li Yu had his back to the moonlight in her direction, Miao Jixiang couldn't see his appearance.

Li Yu smiled and said, "I...... It's the landlord of your home! ”

Miao Jixiang's eyes widened slightly: "You are the eldest man of the Li family?" ”

Li Yu was a little surprised: "You know me? ”

Miao Jixiang said: "This evening, I heard Aunt Pan and my father talk about you. ”

Li Yu was stunned and said after a pause: "It's so late, what are you doing here?" ”

Miao Jixiang lowered his head slightly, and said softly: "Did the slave family make you sleep?" Sorry. ”

Li Yu hurriedly said: "No, no, I am ...... I went to the forest to take a walk and heard the sound of crying. Auspicious girl, come out quickly! ”

Miao Jixiang said: "I won't go out!" ”

Her original voice is very immature and crisp, because she cries with a little crying sound, she looks like a negative child. Li Yu couldn't help but laugh: "It's the middle of the night, what are you doing hiding there, come out quickly!" ”

"I don't!"

Li Yu asked tentatively, "Have you been wronged at home?" ”

Miao Jixiang glanced at Li Yu quickly, her eyes were clear, like a frightened quail, Li Yu noticed her shoulders and subconsciously shrunk: "The affairs of the slave family have nothing to do with the Li family, please don't ask again." ”

Li Yu took a look at the surrounding environment, although the place where Miao Jixiang was sitting was empty, but there were small bamboo branches around it, forming a natural small space, if he wanted to go in, he had to find a suitable position to bend down from the oblique branches and leaves, so Li Yu gave up this plan and scared her: "Although there are not necessarily wild beasts in this forest, it is difficult to guarantee that there are no bamboo rats and green snakes, biting your ass, and not coming out?" ”

Miao Jixiang was amused by him and laughed out loud, she seemed to feel a little embarrassed when she laughed, so she turned her head away from Li Yu, and said in a crisp and childish voice: "If you don't scare me, I'm not afraid." If you really want a bamboo rat and a green snake, I can still open the meat. ”

Li Yu sighed, neither soft nor hard can be done, if he says that he will leave, he really doesn't worry about a little girl being alone in the bamboo path of the secluded forest, so she just plays tricks. Li Yu sat down on the spot, learned to be auspicious, and hugged his knees with both hands.

Miao Jixiang heard the sound of Si Suo, turned his head to look at him, and a pair of apricot eyes couldn't help but widen: "What are you doing?" ”

Li Yu said: "If I leave you alone, I won't be enough friends, so I have to accompany you." ”

The corners of Miao Jixiang's lips twitched, and there was a kind of childish cuteness: "People are just tenants of your family, who is friends with you, the Li family is almost close!" ”

Li Yu touched it in his arms, took out the half of the Hu Cake, held it in his hand, lit it up in the moonlight, and smiled at Miao Jixiang: "Oh! You see! You only have a piece of bread, and you give me half of it, and I treat you as a friend! ”

"Yikes!"

Miao Jixiang's eyes widened, and a trace of surprise and disbelief appeared on his face: "You...... You are ......"

Li Yu smiled: "I am the one who was treated as a beggar by you in the afternoon and gave me half of the cake." ”

Miao Jixiang's lips moved a few times, but he didn't speak.

Li Yu restrained his smile and said seriously: "Half a piece of bread is not valuable, but it is the only thing that someone gave me when I came back from Chang'an all the way back from Chang'an, and someone gave it to me without me being shy and begging for it, thank you." ”

Miao Jixiang laughed silently, and Li Yu found that when she laughed was completely different from when she cried. She only smiled, and the edges of her lips were slightly upturned, revealing crescent-shaped snow-white teeth, and a pair of apricot eyes were also curved like a crescent moon, and the sweetness went straight to the bottom of people's hearts.

"It's just half a piece of cake, don't say that, it's embarrassing."

Li Yu interrupted her: "Li Yu! As for the fish, it is the fish that swims in the water with a large carp. My name, you can call me by my name, a mouthful of a big man, I am also uncomfortable! ”

Miao Jixiang was a little surprised: "The title of Dalang is normal, what's uncomfortable?" ”

The corners of Li Yu's mouth twitched a few times, in this world, it is indeed normal for the eldest son of a family to be called Da Lang, and until the Song and Yuan dynasties, there is nothing abnormal. But since the advent of "Golden Vase Plum", even if the title of Da Lang is ruined, it sounds weird, and being called Da Lang always has a feeling of green on his head.

Li Yu naturally didn't want to tell her about this reason, so he only said: "The title of Da Lang is nothing for others to use." It's just that I don't feel very comfortable listening to it, and the auspicious girl must remember that never to call me that. Just call me Brother Li. ”

Miao Jixiang looked at him, his black and white eyes were like a bird squinting at people, smart and cute: "What a weirdo!" ”

Miao Jixiang muttered and said, "Brother Li, I've heard about you, you avenged your father and killed a big official, it's amazing." Jixiang admires you very much. ”

Li Yu shook his head and smiled: "It's just a halberd chief, and it's not a big official." ”

Li Yu paused and said, "You are so young and diligent, I also admire you." ”

Miao Jixiang showed him a smile again, some sweet, some naïve, her real expression and demeanor, and her real age did seem to have a certain gap, often showing childish movements naturally.

Li Yu comforted: "I know, you have been wronged at home, don't be too sad." You are born so beautifully, you will definitely marry a good family in the future, and you will have a good husband who loves you, and then you will be out of the sea of suffering. ”

"Grievance? Nope! Miao Jixiang glanced at him in surprise, suddenly and suddenly, a pair of eyes smiled again, and shook his head cheerfully: "It's not easy for Daddy to feed the family, my mother is pregnant again, and my sister is still young, so it should be that the slave helps the family share more." ”

Li Yu saw that her expression did not look like a disguise, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Didn't you suffer a grievance at home?" That...... Why are you crying alone in the bamboo forest? ”

Miao Jixiang's smile dimmed, her legs curled up, her chin rested on her knees, and she said faintly: "Today is my mother's death day." ”

Li Yu sighed softly, and suddenly thought of his parents who were far away in a different time and space, although this memory became extremely vague and almost impossible to remember, but he could completely imagine that his parents would be very sad after losing him.

Li Yu suddenly felt sour, and his eyes didn't feel moist. He raised his head, looked up at the sky and understood, was silent for a long time, and suddenly said: "If your mother is watching you from the sky, you say, what does she want from you the most?" ”

Miao Jixiang straightened his spine, cheered up, looked at the bright moon in the sky, and a sweet smile appeared on his face: "Mother must hope that I am happy and happy!" ”

Li Yu was stunned for a moment, his next sentence was ready, just waiting for Miao Jixiang to speak, so as to continue to persuade, who expected that Miao Jixiang actually snatched the lines he had prepared.

Miao Jixiang glanced at Li Yu gratefully, stood up, and patted the soil behind his buttocks: "I have been working hard, trying to make myself happy and happy. I just miss my mother too much tonight...... Brother Li, thank you! ”

Miao Jixiang bent over and came out of the bamboo forest, as light as a deer. The two of them walked side by side under the moon in the bamboo room, thinking about each other along the way, and did not say a word, but the similar thoughts and emotions clearly made them feel that they were much closer to each other.

Li Yu and Miao Jixiang returned to the courtyard, Li Yu stopped, and Miao Jixiang gave him a light blessing: "Brother Li sleeps well!" ”

Li Yu nodded: "Good night!" ”

Li Yu stood at the door, watching Miao Jixiang walk in the frosty moonlight, she walked gracefully, she walked all the way to the landlord's head, stopped in front of the small warehouse where leather goods and miscellaneous items were originally stored, looked back at him again, and walked in. When she walked in, her waist was still very straight.

Li Yu sighed softly, and his sorrow suddenly eased a lot, but there was a faint sense of anger: Did she sleep in the barn? Even biological parents don't love their children so much! It's rare for her to be so optimistic, and her heart is always transparent and bright like the moon over there.

Li Yu thought of Pan who was sleeping in the room again, and a feeling of admiration arose, that was a respectable mother and the only blood relative in his life.

Li Yu subconsciously touched the neck pendant on his neck again, and suddenly became excited, there is still a day and a half, what surprise will this pendant-like gadget give him? Li Yu's heart is extremely looking forward to it!
