The wind stretched out his hand to block the child, and Qingmao saw the little girl, but he felt a little familiar.

"Little sister, why are you here?"

This little girl is the pair of dragon and phoenix twins born to Qingmao's adoptive father and second sister.

Qingmao's adoptive father's surname is Chang Mingde, she and her three sisters who are also adopted, and their adoptive father didn't give them names, so his adoptive father only called them the eldest child, the second child, the third child, and the fourth child. Later, the second sister gave birth to this pair of dragon and phoenix twins, although Changde is a person with no human affection, but he still named these two twins, the son is called Chang Xing, and the daughter is called Chang Mei, who is seven years old this year.

Chang Mei didn't recognize Qingmao, after all, she was only five years old when Qingmao left home. And Qingmao, who was in his adoptive father's house at the beginning, is similar to the current Chang Mei, with tattered clothes and unkempt hair.

"Miss, have mercy on me!"

Chang Mei held the bowl and begged in front of Qingmao.

"You know her?" The wind asked Qingmao.

"Hmm."

Qingmao hummed softly, then looked around. Based on her past experience, Changde should be nearby. But when I looked everywhere, I couldn't see my adoptive father.

"Are you here with your mother, or with your father?" Qingmao asked Chang Mei.

Chang Mei opened her big eyes and looked at the young lady in front of her. How did she know she wasn't coming alone? However, Chang Mei didn't speak, just looked at it for a while, and then continued to hold the bowl in front of Qingmao: "Miss, have mercy on me!" ”

"Who is she?" The wind asked Qingmao.

"My former adoptive father's daughter."

"She's your sister?"

"Hmm."

The wind touched his body and wanted to give the little girl some money, but after touching it, he remembered that the smallest denomination on his body was also a silver ticket of one hundred taels.

He thought about it, but still took out a hundred taels of silver ticket and wanted to hand it to the little girl.

"Don't give it to her!"

Qingmao snatched the silver ticket from the wind's hand.

Chang Mei had never seen a silver ticket, and she didn't know what the uncle in front of her handed over, she just thought it was a piece of paper, so she didn't feel anything, just stared at the wind.

Swift Wind said: "Since she is your sister, give her some!" ”

"Don't give." Qingmao said with a calm face: "She asked for it back to her father, and that kind of person is not worthy of sympathy." ”

After Qingmao finished speaking, he asked Chang Mei again, "Who are you here with?" ”

Chang Mei now feels that the young lady in front of her is a little familiar, but she can't imagine that the young lady in front of her is her former fourth sister. The fourth sister who tried to escape, was captured by her father, and was almost killed.

Seeing that Aomao always asks who the little girl came with, he asks, "How do you know that she didn't come alone?" ”

Qingmao said: "I used to be like her, begging on the street. The adoptive father won't let us come out alone, he will definitely follow, just around. He was afraid that we would run away. ”

Knowing that Qingmao was adopted, the wind began to practice at the age of four, and he was often beaten and scolded for his performances on the street. He didn't know that Qingmao had been begging on the streets before.

For that adoptive father, if he is in good health, he can be a street performer, just a street performer. If you are not in good health, such as being beaten badly, and you can't do those juggling moves, then go to the street and beg. It just so happens that the injuries on her body can also win some sympathy.

Qingmao's tolerance for pain was also cultivated at that time.

Once in a while, a person will feel a lot of pain when they are whipped occasionally. But if you smoke dozens of whips every day, you will gradually stop feeling pain.

When Chang Mei heard her say "adoptive father", she immediately looked at Qingmao carefully in disbelief, and the more she looked at it, the more she felt that the young lady in front of her seemed to be the fourth sister who had run away.

"You, are you the fourth sister?" Chang Mei asked tentatively and softly.

"Yes, it's me." Qingmao replied.

Chang Mei suddenly looked at Qingmao in surprise and disbelief, and asked, "How did you become like this?" Have you found a rich man? ”

Chang Mei said, looking at the wind beside Qingmao. She saw that these two people looked like rich people, so she stepped forward to beg. The fourth sister ran away from home, so there is no doubt that this man is rich.

"Ahem" Blizzle choked on saliva. He didn't expect a seven-year-old girl to say such a thing.

"No, he's my companion." Qingmao is not strange at all. With such an adoptive father and such a second sister, she didn't find it strange at all.

"How are you doing now?" Qingmao asked Chang Mei.

In that family, as long as you don't get beaten every day, it's a good life. What she asked was, in fact, have you been beaten often?

There was a trace of sadness on Chang Mei's little face, and she said, "It's not good." My mother is not good. Daddy said that if I couldn't make money, I would sell my mother. ”

Qingmao showed a hint of mockery on his face. said, "You came with your father?" ”

"No, I'm here with my mother." Chang Mei said and looked back, but didn't see her mother, and said, "My mother may have gone to business." ”

Qingmao understood what Chang Mei meant by "business".

But the wind didn't understand, and said, "Do business and let your daughter beg on the street? ”

Qingmao said coldly: "What she does is the kind of business that Sidao Street does. ”

Blasting Wind thought for a moment, Sidao Street? Then it dawned on me.

Qingmao took out fifty yuan and gave it to Chang Mei and said, "When your mother comes back, you can go back with her!" If your father tells you to come out and ask for money, you can go to the southernmost vacant lot in the south of the city to find me, and I will give it to you. If I'm not there, you look for him. As he spoke, he pointed to the wind and said, "His name is Second Master Feng, there are people building houses in the southernmost vacant land in Nancheng, you just ask the people who build houses there, and they will tell you where we are." ”

Chang Mei looked at Qingmao and said, "Fourth sister, you won't go back, will you?" ”

"Yes."

Chang Mei doesn't want to go back, but her parents are here, where can she go if she doesn't go back?

Chang Mei thought for a while and said, "Fourth sister, can you take me with you?" ”

Qingmao shook his head and said, "I can't." I'm just a slave in someone else's house, I have to listen to my master, I can't be the master. ”

Chang Mei sighed with some regret, that melancholy look did not match her seven-year-old age at all.

Qingmao looked at it, didn't see the figure of the second sister, and said to Chang Mei: "Okay, we still have something to go, you should be careful." If you have anything, go to the southernmost vacant lot in the south of the city and look for me. ”

Chang Mei looked at the fourth sister who had already lived a good life, and she wanted the fourth sister to take her away! But the fourth sister said that she was just a slave and couldn't be the master. However, the fourth sister said that she should go to the southernmost open space to find her. That is, there is still a chance to see the fourth sister again. Thinking of this, Chang Mei is not sad. Nodding his head and saying, "Okay, I remember." ”
