There are not many shops, but they sell necessities for every household.

Grandpa bought a lot of cotton clothes and rice and noodles for the winter, and each child carried a lot of rich results in his hands.

When passing by a stall painting candy, the children stopped and looked curiously at the old man who was holding a spoon to paint.

The old man took the cooled sugar painting down from the table with a sharp shovel, and then put the sugar painting up and inserted it on a piece of soft and fluffy corn stalks beside him, and the sugar painting shimmered with a golden luster in the sunlight.

Seeing that the children liked this sugar painting very much, Yueyue proposed that everyone choose one to take away and eat while walking.

The children were very happy, so they got started one after another, to get their favorite candy man, rabbit, bird, mouse, flower, butterfly, dragonfly, one of the six children, pinched in the hand and reluctant to eat, obediently held, looking at such a delicate and beautiful sugar painting, happy chase and play.

Looking at the last two remaining sugar paintings with swallows, they were handed over to Yan Hong and Qing Tian respectively.

Yueyue smiled, pointed to the sugar painting in the hands of the two of them and said, "This can be eaten, but it is sweet!" ”

"What about you?" Sunny days and red ask the moon.

"I've eaten it!" Yueyue smiled, and then pushed the two sugar paintings.

After hearing Yueyue say that she had eaten it, both of them took it unceremoniously, and then stretched out the tip of their curious tongues and licked the sugar painting.

It was the best sweet food they had ever tasted, it had the fragrance of wheat and the sweetness of sugar cane.

Yan Hong didn't expect that there would be such a sweet taste.

"It's delicious...... Yueyue looked at Yan Hong and Qingtian's surprised expression, and smiled with satisfaction.

"Grandpa, you can take a bite too!"

Suddenly, Bai Duo walked up to his grandfather, raised the sugar painting in his hand that he was reluctant to eat, and wanted his grandfather to take a bite and taste it first, and then eat it himself.

"Grandpa is old and has bad teeth, so you can eat it yourself!"

Grandpa smiled, and then declined Bai Duo's kindness, Bai Duo saw that grandpa didn't eat, but fortunately picked it up and licked it himself.

After tasting the sweetness, everyone cherishes this sugar painting very much, and after tasting the delicious taste of the sugar painting, it will be remembered for a long time, until there is no longer the sweetness of the malt in the mouth, and then they are willing to lick it again.

Yan Hong and Sunny Day chewed the thin layer of sugar and held it in his mouth, picked up the goods attentively, and walked in the direction of his grandfather's house.

The children's faces were full of happy and excited smiles, and they smiled like New Year's dolls pasted on the New Year's wall, and they returned to their grandfather's house with a smile on their faces.

After everyone cleaned up some of the items they bought, they all found that the time had passed too quickly, and it had come to the afternoon.

Yueyue looked at the sun that was in the air, constantly setting towards the west, revealing a faint sadness.

"What's wrong?" Yan Hong suddenly walked to Yueyue's side, stood side by side with her, and looked at Yueyue, who was only two years older than herself, with some concern.

"It's nothing ......," Yueyue waved her hand.

Yan Hong: "Don't hide it from me, I remember what you said to them when I was unconscious...... They told you to go to the landlord of the king......"

Yueyue: "Now that you know everything, what else do I have to say?" ”

Yan Hong shook her head, "They forced you?" Isn't it? ”

Yueyue stretched out her hand and held Yan Hong's hand and said, "No, I volunteered!" ”

"Is it to save me, so you agreed to go to see the landlord?"

Yan Hong was a little excited when she said this, she regretted that she had offended that uncle at the beginning, so that so many things happened later, and she owed Yueyue too much.

Yueyue suddenly stopped talking, lowered her head, and didn't know how to answer.

It is true that she agreed to go to see the landlord Wang because of Yan Hong, but if she admits this matter, then Yan Hong will definitely blame herself.

So she thought about it again and again, so she said: "When I went to my uncle's house, I did go with the idea of saving you, but after talking with the uncle, I learned that there was a reason why the uncle wanted me to go to see the landlord Wang. The landlord likes beautiful women, I happen to be the type he likes, and I happen to be about to get married, isn't it a good result to be with the landlord? ”

"Last night I did spend the night with the landlord Wang, but the landlord was very good to me, I was taken care of by him a lot, this morning, after I talked to the landlord Wang, he generously took out a bag of copper coins, handed it to me, let me come back with copper coins, improve everyone's life."

"Now that everything has been bought, I will dare to return to the side of the king and landlord tonight. You have also seen that only by his side, the money comes so easily, as easy as being blown by the wind, as long as I am by his side, your life will be better and better, no need to be hungry, worry about this meal after the next meal, how good! ”

Yueyue said very easily, it seems that this matter is not a disgraceful thing, and the money she begged from the landlord with her ability is to benefit her younger brothers and sisters.

"Then do you really like the king landlord?" Yan Hong suddenly asked her, wanting to see Yueyue's reaction.

Sure enough, Yueyue's reaction was a little not good, "No young woman would really like an elderly uncle......" Yueyue opened her mouth honestly and continued: "But as long as what I do is worth it, as long as you are good......"

Yan Hong clenched Yueyue's hand and said, "Yueyue, if you don't like it, don't be reckless!" ”

"But now, I have no way out, Yan Hong......" Yueyue shook her head helplessly, "Think about it, if you offend your uncle, it will end up like that, not to mention that if I offend the king and landlord, then the end will be dead and dead!" ”

Yan Hong gritted her teeth and didn't say anything, it was really because of such a bloody reality, which made her feel wind behind her back, and when she thought that Yueyue was going to be bullied all the time, Yan Hong was a little angry, Yan Hong suddenly said: "Yueyue, you must survive this winter, after winter, we will leave this village immediately!" Hide where they can't find it anymore! ”

"Well......

Yueyue suddenly smiled, this is also what she thinks, as long as she survives this winter, she will come to her own day.

As long as you can leave this village, you will definitely never meet anyone like Uncle again.

After dinner, Yueyue really left, she used the reason that she wanted to make new clothes for the king and landlord, deceived everyone, and left with a smile.

But looking at the back of Yueyue leaving, Yan Hong felt that Yueyue's smile was not sincere.

When night came, when everyone was snoring loudly and falling asleep, Yan Hong stared at the roof in a daze with a pair of big eyes.

The picture of Yueyue leaving flashed in front of her eyes, her heart was very painful, she knew that Yueyue must be very tormented now, and every second was like a year.

But there was nothing she could do and nothing could be done.

Yueyue relied on herself to get back their current stable and comfortable life, which is really unfair, at least Yanhong can't sit idly by, she wants to rescue Yueyue.

But she doesn't have the strength, even the uncle can't beat it, not to mention the Wang landlord who is protected by many people, although the knife brought out from home has been hidden by her, but she has never let it exert its original power, it is a sharp knife, as long as it gently pierces the human body, it can make people leave this world!

As long as she gets stronger and stronger, she can ignore anyone so that she can protect everyone, and this is the way she is pursuing.

Yan Hong turned her head to look at the sunny sky beside her, and then suddenly shook him.

Qingtian was woken up by Yan Hong, with a pair of sleepy eyes, looking at Yan Hong's face at hand, and said a little embarrassed: "Yan Hong...... What do you call me for? ”

"You come with me to the yard!"

After Yan Hong finished speaking, she sat up expressionlessly, jumped out of bed lightly and flexibly, put on her shoes, and opened the door and walked towards the courtyard.

On sunny days, they also move quickly, they never take off their clothes to sleep, because there is only one bed here, there are men, women and children, so if you take off your own clothes, you will offend others.

Qingtian followed Yan Hong's footsteps and walked into the courtyard, looking at Yan Hong's clean and good-looking side face, she scratched the back of her head a little unnaturally, "What the hell is going to be said here?" ”

"It's about Yueyue!" Yan Hong's straight to the point.

"Yueyue? Didn't she go to make clothes? Qingtian was so cold by the sudden cold wind that he rubbed his arms and stomped his feet.

"Hmmm......"

Even if Yan Hong knew the truth, she was embarrassed to tell Qingtian, so she simply followed Yueyue's lie and said, "Don't you think it's too much for so many of us to rely on Yueyue to make money alone?" ”

"I also want to help Yueyue, but I don't know how ......to embroider at all," Qingtian lowered his head and sighed.

Yan Hong: "My embroidery level is not as good as Yueyue, so I was thinking about this matter just now, now that Yueyue is in the mansion of the landlord Wang, then we can also enter the mansion of the landlord Wang, even if it is just a handyman, it is better than sitting still and waiting to die!" ”

Qingtian: "Okay, if you make up your mind to go to the mansion of the king and landlord, I will accompany you!" ”

Yan Hong looked at Qingtian's determined expression and nodded firmly.

The next day, the two came to the outside of the mansion of the landlord.

The door to the mansion was closed, and Yan Hong and Qing Tian had to wait outside, both of them dressed in men's clothes.

Yan Hong was still young at this time and had not developed much, so her chest was flat, her cheeks were also delicate, and her eyebrows and eyes were a little sharp that did not belong to women, and she looked like a handsome teenager, so it was still a little difficult to be recognized by someone who was really gender.
