Chapter 53: Min'er
In the swaying carriage, there were not only Yang Lin and Yang Xiao, but also one more, the little girl who had just lost her mother.
At this time, although the little girl no longer cried, no longer choked. But the whole person was curled up there, the whole body was filled with an aura of loneliness, and the delicate and small body seemed very abrupt.
Such a young body makes this breath seem so incompatible with her age, and it is very inconsistent; It makes the onlookers feel a sense of heartache, pity, and want to take this lonely little girl into their arms.
Perhaps, this young body has borne too many things that she should not have endured, so as to exude this breath from the inside out.
It was quiet in the carriage and no one disturbed the little girl. It was Yang Lin and Yang Xiao who wanted to comfort the little girl, but when they saw the implication on her little face that they didn't want to talk to people, they refused to talk to people thousands of miles away. The two of them resisted the urge and sat there quietly, glancing out of the corner of their eye.
Since Yang Lin ordered the little girl's mother to be buried hastily, it looks pitiful, and she is so young that no one takes care of her. I couldn't bear to leave the little girl there, so I took the little girl with me and went to Guangzhou to take up a post.
Although the carriage was still very quiet, the sadness exuded by the little girl made the atmosphere gradually become a little depressing, a little dull, and uncomfortable.
A few times, Yang Xiao wanted to open his mouth to break this status quo, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he felt a little powerless and didn't know what to say. How can words soothe the pain of losing a loved one? Only use time to fade and heal that kind of spiritual wound.
So Yang Lin stopped bothering the little girl, because he felt it deeply. When he is in heartache, Yang Lin just stays alone, or travels far away, or plays crazy games, putting himself in the realm of being alone, and letting time soothe his heartache.
The silence of all the voices, the birds and beasts return to the forest, the sunset curls, and the sunset shines in through the swinging carriage curtains from time to time, shining on Yang Lin's unfazed face, shining on the little girl's curled up body and the little head buried deep in her arms.
The group was so quiet that not a single person spoke, only the creaking sound of the car swaying.
In the end, the sun still sets in the west, and the sky is gloomy. At this time, a retinue shouted from outside the carriage.
"Young master, it's already dark, there are no inns or villages nearby, so we can only sleep in the wilderness tonight."
Yang Lin lifted the curtain out, bowed down and stood on the carriage, looked around, looked at the darkening sky, nodded and said, "Then camp on the spot and rest here." You send a few people to get some hay, fetch some water, and raise the stove to cook. ”
With Yang Lin's order, except for the six servants who were left behind with bird guns, the others went in twos and threes to find water sources or pick up dry firewood and dry grass. At this time, Yang Lin turned around and shouted into the carriage: "Min'er, come quickly, get out of the car to breathe, prepare to prepare, and you can finish eating in a while." ”
Min'er is that little girl, her full name is Zhao Min. Hearing Yang Lin's scream, she raised her head buried deep between her legs and looked over. Seeing Yang Lin's warm smile, his heart warmed, and he obediently walked out of the carriage, and under Yang Lin's embrace, he came to a solid and heavy land.
Since taking in Zhao Min, Yang Lin only knows her name, and the rest is unknown. Since the little girl was still sad, Yang Lin didn't want to ask much, just waiting for an appropriate time, Zhao Min's mood eased a little, and then asked one or two.
The breeze blew slowly, making Yang Lin so uncomfortable, he couldn't help but stretch his arms, facing the fierce breeze, and inhaling the breath that belonged to the earth and the wind. The spring breeze around the beginning of April can best reflect the gentleness and delicacy of the wind. The breeze slowly blows across the cheeks and flows on the surface of the skin, which is so comfortable and smooth.
However, the little girl Zhao Min on the side was trembling, and her body was shivering. Seeing this situation, Yang Lin immediately took off his coat, draped it on Zhao Min's body, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Min'er, forget that your body is thin and your clothes are a little unwarm." When you get to the city or the village, where there are people, I'll make you two sets of clothes that fit, and now you can make do with my clothes." ”
Zhao Min was a little shy, a little shy, and nodded shyly, his heart warm. The little girl felt that Yang Lin's clothes were so warm, but they still couldn't compare to the warmth and warmth that flowed in her heart when someone cared for her.
Afterwards, Yang Lin and the three of them sat quietly around a fire. Zhao Min clasped his hands around him, his chin rested on it, and looked at the firelight with his eyes lost, as if he was stunned, thinking about things. Sometimes there is a faint smile, and sometimes there is a sadness that is not easy to wipe.
Not long after, Yang Lin saw that the little girl's face was much better, and there was no such faint sadness, so he organized the language in his heart and asked, "Hey, Min'er, where are you from?" How did you end up here? ”
"I can't remember clearly, I only remember that it was from Zhaojia Village. I don't know why I ended up here. Originally, my mother and I lived well in the village, but suddenly one day a lot of people came to the village asking for food. Zhao Min woke up from his stunned state and replied childishly.
Then, I don't know what's going on, our village is in chaos all of a sudden, the grandparents, uncles and uncles in the village, all the people in the village packed up their things and left the village in a hurry, everyone walked and walked, and disappeared and scattered. In the end, it was just me and my mother. ”
"Oh, do you know why you people left the village?"
"I don't know, I also asked my mother on the way, and she just said that there was going to be a war and find a place to live."
Hearing Zhao Min's immature tone say "shelter", Yang Lin smiled slightly, but his heart was very heavy, how could such a young girl understand what shelter is? How will you know this word? It should have been said by her mother, and she learned the language.
Yang Lin didn't think about it so much, and asked subconsciously, "Min'er, why haven't I heard you talk about your father?" Didn't you all come out together? ”
In an instant, the little girl's expression froze, she sobbed and cried, and said in a choked voice: "En~En~, originally my mother and I were going to go to our father, but halfway through, my mother and I would have no news of our father, otherwise~~ Otherwise, my mother would not have died, and I would not have become an orphan~!" ”
Then, the youngest daughter Zhao Min couldn't stop crying, and returned to her previous state again. Yang Lin slowly hugged him in his arms, and said comfortably and gently: "Min'er doesn't cry, Min'er is not an orphan, Min'er still has a big brother~!" ”
Hearing Yang Lin's gentle words, the little girl hugged Yang Lin even tighter. Yang Xiao on the side has been standing left and right, watching this scene silently, with tears in the corners of his eyes, moved, sympathetic, and a trace of empathy.
Strictly speaking, Yang Xiao is also an orphan. He Yang Yao was adopted by the Yang Mansion since he was a child, served Yang Lin's left and right, played with Yang Lin, and grew up together. Unlike the little girl, Yang Xiao and Yang Yao have been in the Yang Mansion since they were conscious and have never suffered hardships.
Moreover, Yang Lin's mother and father treated him and Yang Yao as their own and never treated them as subordinates. Therefore, the sense of orphanhood of the two is much lighter and much luckier. Therefore, the two of them also regarded Yang Mansion as their home.
To be more precise, the current Yang Yao and Yang Xiao have regarded themselves as members of the Yang Mansion and are inseparable. For the sake of the Yang Mansion, they are willing to do anything. If someone dares to destroy their home, the Yang Mansion, the two of them will not hesitate to sacrifice their lives.
Stars climbed into the starry sky, dotted with the night, twinkling and twinkling.
