Chapter 116: Refusal

Yao Changsheng looked at them and smiled slightly, "That's it for now, let's continue tomorrow." ”

"Alright then!" Tao 15 looked at them and said, "You sleep, I come to watch the night." ”

Tao Qini looked at them and said, "I'll go to the backyard to wash, it's dirty." ”

"I'll go with you." Hearing this, Shen immediately stood up and said.

The mother and daughter took the wooden basin and the bucket and went to the backyard together.

"It's pitch black, I knew we were still in the backyard." Shen helped her rub and move on the ground.

"Mother! Follow me, there are no stumbling blocks on the road, I remember the way. Tao Qini took her arm and said, "The backyard is too remote, and we can't see any movement." After a pause, he continued, "The yamen is different, it's empty, the vision is wide, the ventilation is cool, it's good." ”

"If you say that, it's better to be at the yamen." Shen nodded hurriedly when he heard this.

While talking, the two went to the backyard, fetched water, and poured it into the wooden basin.

"I want to take a bath." Tao Qini took the water scoop and said to her arm, the well water was cool, sweeping away the heat.

"No, the water is too cold." Shen Shi said without thinking, "There are people in the city, and there is no shelter here, in case someone rushes in, your life will be over." Softly persuaded again, "Bear with it!" ”

"No one can see this black light." Tao Qini said disapprovingly when she heard this.

"That's not going to work either." Shen said sharply with a dark face, "The innocence of my daughter's family is very important, and I am not allowed to be seen." ”

"Yes, yes." Tao Qini nodded when she heard this.

"If you want to wash, when we get on the road, I'll show you, drive your father and them away, and let you wash happily." Shen looked at this clean-loving girl and said, "I don't know who I learned from, I didn't take a bath before, and I didn't see you yelling." ”

"Then mother, is it comfortable to take a bath? Still not bathing comfortable. Tao Qini squatted in front of the wooden basin, holding water in both hands and splashing it on her face.

"Uh......" Shen Shi said for a long time when he heard this, "The bath is comfortable, as if a layer of skin has been withdrawn." ”

"That's not it." Tao Qini stood up straight and said, "Mother, you also wash." ”

"Hmm!" Shen squatted in front of the wooden basin and washed, fetched a bucket of water and carried it back to the yamen.

"Before we go on the road, wash this mat." Tao Qini pointed to the straw mat under her with her index finger.

"I'll wash it, it's simple, I'm not afraid of anything if I have water." Hearing this, Shen said lightly, "Hurry up and sleep, don't carve abacus beads." ”

"Hmm!" Tao Qini responded obediently and lay down with a knife.

Tao 15 added some firewood to the campfire, picked up the unfinished straw sandals and continued.

In the dead of night, only the crackling of the campfire rang out from time to time.

I wasn't going to leave today, so Tao Qini and the others slept until dawn.

Breakfast continued with grasshopper porridge, and after drinking, Tao Fifteen lay down to rest.

And Tao Qini continued to make calculations, and Tao Liuyi, Shen and Yao Changsheng prepared to set off.

Tao fifteen was awakened by the smell of barbecue, and as soon as he sat up, he saw Jiu Jiu eating roast chicken.

"Dad, why don't you sleep for a while." Tao Liuyi glanced up at him and continued to weave the straw sandals in his hand and said, "It's okay now." ”

"I don't sleep." Tao Fifteen looked at them and smiled.

"I think I'm almost rested, let's go tomorrow." Tao Qini carved the abacus beads and said, "Puff ......" blowing the fine wood chips on her hands.

"Mr. Yao can teach us ninety-nine watches!" Tao Fifteen's eyes turned to Yao Changsheng and said eagerly.

"Okay, you can tell me what you memorized yesterday first." Yao Changsheng shook his head and said with a smile when he heard this, no wonder he only slept for a while, and he was thinking about the ninety-nine table in his heart.

"I'll carry it first!" Tao Liuyi put down the straw sandals in his hand and said happily, "One by one, ...... the same"

"That one heard you were leaving." Uncle Zheng, their ancestors and grandchildren stood at the gate of the yamen, looked at Tao Fifteen, and asked.

The sudden voice interrupted Tao Liuyi's recitation, making Tao Qini and their eyes look at the three members of the Zheng family.

"Hmm!" Tao Fifteen looked at the three of them, eating grasshoppers in the past few days, both mentally and complexively improved.

"Then can you take my two children with you?" Uncle Zheng patted the two children on the shoulders and said.

"Grandpa, grandpa." Zheng Tong and Deng He looked at him together and said, "We're leaving, what should you do?" ”

"We're not leaving." The two said in unison.

"You follow them to get out, and I'm already halfway into the earth." Uncle Zheng looked at the two of them with clear and open-minded eyes and said, "I don't know how long this drought will last, this Central Plains is a place where soldiers must fight, and there are constant military disasters, what are you doing here?" ”

"Then we can't go." The two looked at Uncle Zheng resolutely.

"You two ......," Uncle Zheng looked at the two of them and said with a heartbeat, "If you don't leave, I'll die for you now." ”

"Grandpa, grandpa." The two looked at him anxiously and said.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute." Tao Qini looked at the three of them, "We didn't seem to say that we were going to take you away!" ”

They haven't agreed yet! but they were separated from life and death.

"Gah?" Uncle Zheng and the three looked at Tao Qini with a shocked expression.

Tao Qini looked at the three of them with the same expressions, shook her head and smiled, "Since they don't want to leave, why do you have to drive them." ”

"I ...... They stayed with me, a lonely old man, with no future. Uncle Zheng looked at them with red eyes and said.

"Don't, don't! Don't cry! Tao fifteen waved his hands in a panic and stood up and said, "It's not easy for us, we are also a thousand difficulties along the way, we don't know tomorrow today, I don't know where to go if we live every day?" ”

"You're not afraid of our bad intentions." Tao Qini looked at them with deep eyes and said slowly.

"This ......," Uncle Zheng looked at them hesitantly and said, "Impossible, you are not that kind of person." ”

"What kind of person?" Tao Qini looked at him funny and said, "People are in a desperate situation, they can do anything, I can't even believe it." You actually believe it. ”

"Uncle Zheng, it's better for you to think about it first, don't make a decision lightly." Tao Shifu looked at them with clear eyes and said.

"Grandpa, let's not leave, let's go back!" Zheng Tong glanced at Deng and the envoy, and the two of them carried Uncle Zheng away one on the left and one on the right.

&*&

"What are you watching me do?" Tao fifteen found that his daughter's eyes were looking straight at him, so he spoke.

"I thought my dad would say yes." Tao Qini looked at him with clear eyes and said.

"How is that possible? We don't know them well, we don't know how to behave? Tao 15 thought for a while and said, "If you really want to go with us, we will be responsible for them." With a wry smile, he said, "Although I have settled down somewhere, but this road is also full of difficulties and dangers, in case something happens, how to explain to others." Not only do we have to think about it, but we also have to think about it. ”
