As she was listening, she heard a knock at the door, and she asked, "Who?" ”

I heard Lu Shikang's voice: "I." ”

She wrapped herself in the quilt and got up, and went to open the door, and when she saw him standing in the doorway, his hands empty, she asked, "Where are the clothes?" ”

"It's not for sale." He said.

"What? Didn't sell? She was not depressed.

"Right now, only the shops that sell clothes for the elderly and the clothes for the young people are closed."

Actually, it's easy to understand, because most of the young people in the town have left, so the shops that sell young people's clothes are also closed.

But did she still have to wear the dirty clothes that had been patched up before?

Seeing the disappointed look on her face, he said, "Either I'll go and borrow you some of the clothes of the shopkeeper?" ”

Qingzhi nodded, "It's okay." ”

Lu Shikang then left her door again, because he had only gone downstairs, so she didn't bother to lie back on the bed, but stood at the window.

After a while there was a knock at the door, and she knew that it was him who had returned, so she turned to open the door, and saw him with a few neatly folded clothes. The thin clothes inside are gray, and the outer clothes are nude.

"This is the shopkeeper's, you try to see if it fits."

She just wanted to take the clothes from his hands, and it would be embarrassing to think that if she stretched out her two hands to pick up the clothes, she would inevitably let the quilt fall apart.

"Can you help me put my clothes on the bed?" She asked.

He nodded, went into her room, helped her put her clothes on the bed, and left her room.

She quickly put the quilt on the bed, and then began to put on the clothes of the shopkeeper, first wearing the inner clothes, judging from the inner clothes, this dress was a little loose, she had to pull up the trouser hem and then put on the outer one.

After putting on the outer clothes, she felt that the wide clothes were not warm at all.

But now, she has no other choice.

After getting dressed, he was sitting on the bed, thinking about whether he should go to the shopkeeper to serve him hot porridge, when he heard the voice of the shopkeeper outside: "Guest officer, are you there?" ”

When Lu Shikang went to borrow clothes from him just now, he guessed that the thief upstairs had already taken a bath, and it was the first time he had seen such a person who could take a bath.

After Qingzhi came out to open the door, the shopkeeper glanced at his own clothes on her and said, "Hey, you look better than me." Looking at her face again, I was shocked again, it turned out that the thief had washed his face and turned out to be a young man with fine skin and tender flesh and bright eyes and bright teeth.

Seeing the thief like this, he unconsciously boasted: "I didn't expect you to look quite decent." ”

"The little brother praised it falsely." Qingzhi Road.

"Can I help you warm up the porridge now?"

"It's okay now, bother the little brother."

"It's not troublesome, it's not troublesome, it's just that the porridge won't taste very good once it's hot, so don't be too bad to drink at that time."

The shopkeeper said and went downstairs.

After a short time, the shopkeeper came upstairs again, brought the porridge that had just been hot, and after bringing the porridge and placing it on the square table on the west side of the room, he took away the wooden barrel and other bathing things in the room by the way.

Qingzhi glanced at the bowl on the table, and saw that the porridge was a simple millet porridge, a blue and white porcelain spoon was placed in the bowl, she took the spoon and drank the porridge.

When she was drinking porridge, she felt a person standing in front of the door, and when she looked up, she saw that it was Lu Shikang.

He walked in without saying a word, and sat down next to her.

Sensing that he was watching her drink porridge, she glanced up at him and said, "What's so good about drinking porridge?" Are you hungry too? ”

"Not hungry, only sleepy."

She knew that he must not have had a good night's sleep in the past few days, so she said, "Then you don't go to sleep yet?" ”

"Don't dare to sleep, I'm afraid that when I open my eyes, you will disappear again."

She knew what he was worried about, and he must have felt that there was a lot of chaos at the moment, full of thieves, robbers, and it was really dangerous for her to stay in a room with a woman.

She said while drinking porridge: "Don't worry, Lu Gongzi, I'm a big living person, can I still be stolen?" Even if others rob the house, they will take some silver taels at most, but I don't have any silver taels in this room. ”

"It's hard to say, if this son breaks into the house and robs him, when he sees Dr. Kong, he won't think of robbing the silver taels, he will only think of robbing Dr. Kong."

"Those robbers will know after a long time, how much I am in the way. No robber would want to rob me. ”

"Doctor Kong, let's talk about it, what's in the way?" Lu Shikang said.

Qingzhi said: "I can't eat it, I can't sell it for money, and I have to take care of food and housing, isn't it a stumbling block?" ”

As she spoke, she had finished drinking the millet porridge, put the spoon in the empty bowl, and said, "I'm going down to put the bowl." ”

"I'll get it later."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the footsteps of the shopkeeper coming up, and the voice immediately came to the door of the room, and when he saw that the door was open, he looked inside, "Guest, have you finished drinking?" ”

"I'm done."

"Looks like I'm just in time. I'll help you take the bowl down. ”

The shopkeeper entered the room, took the bowl and walked out.

After the shopkeeper left, Lu Shikang said: "Tell me what happened to you in the past few days." ”

"Actually, there's nothing to say, it's just that Chen Zhuo has been running away with me, and he changed his clothes on the way to escape." After saying this, she described everything that happened in the past few days to Lu Shikang in detail.

"So, he didn't know you were a woman?"

"I don't know, he probably hasn't guessed about it all along." She replied.

He said: "He still has a little gratitude to you, otherwise maybe he wouldn't let you go easily." ”

She remembered that day he had put his dagger against her neck, and at last he had taken her away from her neck with a few words, and said, "Man has his own position, and from his standpoint, what he has done is reasonable." In such an era, everyone is pitiful. ”

Along the way, she met many lonely old people, many passers-by who did not have enough to eat, and many shopkeepers who had to close their doors because people had fled.

The cruelty of war is not only how many innocent soldiers it directly caused, but also that it changed the lives of countless people and made them suffer from being displaced from place to place.

"But it looks like the war is going to go on for a long time." He said.

"Why did Lu Gongzi say that?"

"Do you remember the soldiers who passed by this town today?"

"Of course I do." It's been less than an hour, and she certainly won't forget it.

"They are going to the cold mountains, and then there will be countless peasants who will rebel."

"Why did Lu Gongzi say that?"

"Do you remember the Battle of Mt. Rose?"

"Of course, I remember." Although it was a very small battle, it ended with a great victory on His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's side, but because it had just happened a few days ago, she was naturally impressed.

"That's the turning point."
