Chapter 24: Purification

"Leave early in the morning." Of course, Liu Ping'an knew that there was something going on, and the woman's tone of questioning was too strange.

"Oh, then you guys should rest early." The woman used her body to block the milk dog behind her.

Liu Ping'an smiled and thanked him, and then returned to the room. As soon as she closed the door, the smirk on her face was gone, she recalled the performance of the family just now, sat on the chair, and when she looked up, she found that Xiao Manniang was looking at him with sympathy on her face.

"Huh?" Liu Ping'an was even more puzzled, "Is there something on my face?" ”

Xiao Manniang shook her head, "No, no, you should rest early." ”

Liu Ping'an didn't know that when she was watching the excitement outside, Xiao Manniang and Xiao Zhiqi had a conversation, which started like this.

"Engong, what is the relationship between you and Gongzi?" Xiao Manniang asked Xiao Zhiqi like this.

"I'm her father." Xiao Zhiqi said.

"But Gongzi has called you uncle several times."

Xiao Zhiqi quickly came up with an excuse, "She has a problem with her brain, sometimes clear and sometimes confused." ”

"I see that Gongzi speaks, and there is no difference between him and normal people, why does Engong always say that he has a problem with his brain?"

"I haven't forgotten what happened last night, she said to herself, you heard it." Xiao Zhiqi said, "She was hit by a door when she was a child, and it has been like this ever since. ”

"Oh." Xiao Manniang asked, "Didn't you take your son to see the doctor?" ”

"Uh...... I saw it, but the doctor said that there was no need to treat it. ”

Although he has not lived with Liu Ping'an for a long time, Xiao Zhiqi has learned Liu Ping'an's skills of making up nonsense.

This family thought that Liu Ping'an and his party were also a family, so they only gave them a room.

On this point, Liu Ping'an and Xiao Zhiqi deliberately did not explain.

"Xiaoman, you and your mother sleep in the bed, and my father and I can sleep on the bench." Liu Ping'an said.

"Brother, you can sleep next to me." Xiaoman said.

Liu Ping'an is set to be a man, as a thirteen-year-old man, naturally he can't do such unruly things, "Hurry up and sleep." She put the two benches together, lay down and fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, Liu Ping'an slept too deeply and forgot that he was sleeping on a stool, turned over, fell to the ground, and woke up.

Xiao Zhiqi, who was awake from sleep, opened his eyes, and just when he hesitated to let Liu Ping'an sleep on the ground, or went over to pull the person back to the stool, Liu Ping'an got up by himself.

After looking around the house, he finally walked up to Xiao Zhiqi and asked in a low voice, "Uncle, Youjun didn't come back." ”

"That thing isn't there?" Xiao Zhiqi can't see Youjun all the time, only when Youjun becomes a cyan body, he will be seen, but more often, Youjun is the appearance of the Weiting brothers.

Liu Ping'an nodded, "I saw him go with the sister-in-law of this family for a while, and I didn't see him come back." ”

Xiao Zhiqi glanced at the bed, saw that Xiaoman and his mother were still asleep, and whispered, "Wouldn't it be better if he didn't come back?" ”

Liu Ping'an clapped his hands, "Hearing you say this, it seems to be a good thing." ”

Although Liu Ping'an said this, he always thought about Youjun in his heart, after all, he had been following him on the road for a while, and the character of Youjun, after coming into contact with it, really couldn't forget it for a while.

In the second half of the night, Liu Ping'an was half-asleep and half-awake, Youjun came back, and he looked like the Weiting brothers, so Xiao Zhiqi didn't see him.

Youjun leaned into Liu Ping'an's ear, "Old girl, I have a gossip to share with you." ”

Liu Ping'an rolled down from the stool again, this time frightened.

"it!" She lowered her voice, but she couldn't suppress the anger in her heart, "Can your appearance be a little foreshadowing." ”

"Hey, why do you pay so much attention." Youjun waved his hand unwillingly.

Xiao Zhiqi, who was sleeping against the door, opened his eyes and looked in the direction of Liu Ping'an, although he couldn't see Youjun, but he heard Youjun's voice.

"Old girl, do you know what the woman's basket at the entrance of the village is in today?" Youjun asked.

"What?" Liu Ping'an is really not interested, what can an ordinary woman have in her basket, it's a big deal to be eggs and the like.

"Dog."

"What?" Liu Ping'an suspected that he had misheard, "A living dog?" ”

"Nonsense, it's not alive." Youjun added, "But it's not anymore. ”

Liu Ping'an frowned, "You mean that the woman in this family killed the dog?" But we didn't hear any movement at all, and if it was a living dog, it would bark. ”

"Oh, it's a milk dog, the kind that hasn't opened its eyes yet, bury it in the soil, what's it called."

"Why?" Liu Ping'an's puzzled mood rose to the peak, "Isn't this village a living by raising dogs?" Why kill dogs? ”

"I'll just say that you have shallow knowledge, since this village is called the Greyhound Village, you should know that this village must only raise the black dogs that Wenhua Palace wants, and when you came in, did you see dogs other than black dogs?"

Liu Ping'an thought about it seriously, there really wasn't, let alone dogs of other colors, those dogs seemed to be black all over, and there was no miscellaneous hair of other colors at all.

"Wait!" Liu Ping'an thought of what the family said at the door at night, and couldn't help repeating, "Sure enough, you put it." That means that the dog in the basket during the day was also kept by the woman. ”

"Hey, Youjun, you didn't make it clear about the key point, if there are other colors of dogs, will the dog keeper be punished?"

"Right! You're okay with your understanding! Youjun said, "I just went out to inquire about this matter, and if any family in the village has a variegated dog, that family will be fined." It is said that the fine is still a lot of money. ”

"But in the last few years, the rule has changed." Youjun propped up the table and said, "If the family is a boy's family, it will be fine as before, but if you have a daughter, you have to hand over your daughter to Wenhua Palace, saying that it is sent to purification." ”

"Purification?!" Liu Ping'an unconsciously raised his voice.

These two words are associated with Wenhua Palace, and they are only for girls, Liu Ping'an can't think of anything good.

Xiao Zhiqi reminded, "Be quiet." ”

"So the family that gave the dog out has a daughter at home?" Liu Ping'an asked Youjun.

"That's right." Youjun said, "According to the news I heard, that family had two daughters, and the dog in the family gave birth to a stray puppy two years ago, and the eldest daughter of the family was taken to purify by Wenhua Palace, and she has not returned home until now." This year, her dog gave birth to a dog with miscellaneous hair, and there was a little daughter at home, and they didn't want their little daughter to be taken away, so they thought of a way to throw the puppy to the family. ”

"There is a feud between these two families?"

"I haven't heard of that." Youjun said, "The reason I heard is that Murakami has no daughters in this family, and if he is left to his family, if it is discovered, the family will only be fined." ”
