I subconsciously covered Ganlai's eyes, and I was already out of the sky. Then he calmed himself down, and asked in a trembling voice to the little guys who were huddled beside him: "What's the matter, how can this be—is there a doctor, Aunt Hua, and Ji Sarong!" ”

"Back to the girl's words - the young ones have brought you food and waited under the porch, after Uncle Fu came out, everyone went downstairs together, didn't take two steps, Uncle Fu... The uncle suddenly screamed, pinching his heart and vomiting blood, but after a while... It's already out of gas. The little girl stammered and replied, "In a few days, the peony champion in the south will come, and Aunt Hua will go to Liwudao Street to buy fabrics for the new girl's clothes." Sister Rong... Sister Rong was summoned in the afternoon, and now... I've gone to my grandfather's mansion! ”

"What did he say to you before he died?" I glanced down at the black-red blood oozing from the corners of Fu Lin's eyes again, frowned and asked, "Or- what did he eat or drink?" ”

"This... After the uncle came out of your room, he was not very happy, and seemed to say something..."The little guy looked frightened, "I said that the girl, you just rely on the favor of the master mother, and you don't give him a good face if you are powerful, and you will definitely do it in the future... I'm going to think of a way to deal with you with Sister Rong......"

"That's all? Nothing else! What had he eaten, or drank—"

"This ......"

"Say it!"

"Uncle took a few of us to the small kitchen before, and when he saw the freshly simmered puffer fish white seeds, he was very angry, he said... said that he had never tasted the taste of this Dongwei specialty for so many years in the Taopin Building, how could a slave doll, a poor sour boy and a yellow-haired girl who was a dog fighting with human power be worthy of eating..."The little guy was terrified and replied, "The uncle said that he raised his head and swallowed a bowl, only saying that he saw the kid leave the Taopin Building in the morning, and saw that he would not come back, so he simply ate his share for him, and others could not notice it." Uncle Fu also warned us that we must not say anything about this matter... Otherwise...... Girl, don't-"

"-Wreck! People are already dead, what are you afraid of! I reprimanded sharply, "Why don't you clean up this place quickly, when you were alive, you were bullied by him, why don't you dare to touch him now that you are dead!" ”

Listening to my orders, a few little guys pushed me and reluctantly stood up and dragged Fu Lin downstairs. I became more and more afraid, trembling, so I pulled Gan Lai back to the room and hugged him to the bed, squatted down and picked up his little face, and asked in horror: "Gan Lai, have you ever touched that bowl of white seeds?" ”

"No... I was about to move my chopsticks when I heard a voice outside and you ran out with your sister. Gan Laixian understood why I asked, and looked at me with a white face and said in shock, "Sister, is that thing poisonous, Mr. Fu was poisoned by that thing, is it - who, who poisoned, who wants to poison us!" ”

My heart suddenly tightened, and there was only the cold face of a person in my mind—

Ji Sarong.

It was as if the blood was boiling and evaporating in the veins in an instant, and I almost turned my back on it with hatred.

It had to be her.

It must be that she was not angry that she was almost slapped by me in front of a group of benefactors last night, and she was resentful, and she pretended to be kind and asked me to let down her guard with a gesture of kindness and peace, but behind her back, she poisoned the puffer fish white seed that was given to me, intending to eradicate me and Duan Ming and Ganlai in one fell swoop.

Maybe it's because it's too secretive and dangerous; Or maybe she was afraid that Fu Lin would not be able to succeed if he was ruthless enough, or that Diao slave accidentally ingested poison and died, I am afraid that he would not know why he died before he breathed. Fortunately, Fu Lin was dissatisfied with me, and this time he accidentally became a substitute for me and Ganlai.

Thinking about it like this, it is really clear that good and evil are rewarded.

It's just that, Ji Sarong... I didn't expect that woman to be so frustrated, she didn't even care to avoid suspicion, so she sent the poisoned food directly to my room. If Gan Lai and I were unfortunately killed today, wouldn't she be afraid that Aunt Hua would ask her for her life......

The joints of my hands clicked, and I thought that my expression was too terrifying, so he pulled at the corners of my clothes and gently called my name. I calmed down a little - yes, even now that I knew her crimes, I couldn't get her back for her current position in Taopinlou......

When I turned my head to look again, I saw Gan Lai's big frightened eyes staring straight at me, as if I could no longer settle down in this filthy place in this life.

Angry, unwilling, can only close his mouth and swallow into his stomach.

As the night deepened, a little starry snow slowly fell from the sky.

This is the first snow in Karju.

The guards on the tower of the gate shouted down the notice that the gate would be closed in a few moments. I picked up the burden in my arms, hesitated, and saw that I couldn't take one more step ahead, and finally reluctantly put it in Ganlai's hands.

"Ganlai, my sister can only send you here." I put down the curtain of the carriage, and finally tightened the ribbon of my cloak for Ganlai, "It's very cold at night, and there is no stove on this carriage, do you blame my sister for sending you out of the city at this hour?" ”

"Miss Sarong has already started to kill, and it will be more dangerous to stay in Taopinlou for a while, and Gan Lai understands it." Gan Lai shook his head and said sensibly, "It's just that Sister Lian, Gan Lai will be safe and sound when he returns to his mother in the countryside this time, but you still have to go back to the peach sales building, and live under the same roof with her every day in the future...... Ganlai is really worried about you! ”

"Don't worry, my sister has flowers and my mother will take care of it, and it will be fine. Na Ji Sarong failed to succeed this time, and forgive her for not daring to make any more moves in the future. I stroked Ganlai's little head and said gently, "It's just that we Ganlai are suffering, and in such a snowy night, we were forced to go on the road in a hurry......"

"It's okay, Sister Lian." Gan Lai gently took my hand and glanced at the large and small packages on the ground, "With so many snacks, clothes, silver and medicinal herbs, and such a good carriage, Gan Lai is already very satisfied." ”

"Silly boy, what are these things...", I said sadly, "Sister just wants to do more for you, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it in the future." When you go back, you have to serve your mother well, heal her of old diseases, and don't let her worry about you anymore, you know? ”

"Hmm!" Gan Lai nodded vigorously and said, "I will continue to learn Brother Duan's kung fu and Sister Lian's knowledge, and strive to become a person who can protect others like you!" ”

"Good boy, it's really the child that I and your brother Duan loved!" I approving, "In the future, we can't always protect Ganlai, Ganlai must also take good care of his mother, but we can't let us worry about you thousands of miles away!" ”

"No, Sister Lian." Gan Lai's clear eyes flickered slightly in the dark, and after a long time, he finally asked, "Sister, Brother Duan and you, are you really angry?" ”

I didn't expect Gan Lai to ask this question, so I was a little stunned for a while, and slowly responded: "Hmm..."

"Won't you reconcile again?"

"My sister doesn't know..."

"Sister, promise me," Gan Lai held my little hand and tightened his strength slightly, and said in a solemn tone, "-If Brother Duan doesn't go back to Taopinlou to look for you, you can go out and find him back, okay?" ”

"Ganlai, you-"

"-Girl, if you have anything to say, please tell me quickly!" Suddenly, the voice of the coachman came from outside, "The hour has passed, and the city gate is about to be keyed!" ”

This urging was caught off guard, and I couldn't hold back my tears anymore, trembling and holding Ganlai in my arms.

"Good boy, your sister understands your thoughts." I let my tears drip down Ganlai's warm neck, "When the day is free, my sister will definitely come to see you." ”

"Brother Duan is really good to his sister, and he can see it." Gan Lai hugged my waist tightly in my arms and sobbed, "Sister, you promise me that you must get Brother Duan back, Gan Lai is waiting for you to come to Yiyang together in the future!" ”

"Ganlai..."

"Sister!"

"Well... I promise you. I burst into tears in the dark, "Sister promised you, I will go to Brother Duan, apologize to him, reconcile with him as before, and then go to Yiyang to see you together!" ”

With such a promise, Gan Laifang gradually let go of the hand that was around me. I finally kissed him on the forehead, and I couldn't stop crying. In the dark, I staggered out of the car, Gan Lai lifted the window curtain, teary eyes stretched out a small hand to me, I subconsciously pulled, the car slowly walked up, I couldn't help trotting to follow all the way to catch up. Seeing that I was under the city gate, the guards stopped me, but Ganlai and I still held each other's hands and refused to let go, and the carriage was stuck between the two city gates that were three feet high, and we could not move forward.

"It's five o'clock now, who is messing around here!" The gatekeepers pushed me left and right, and shouted, "Hey! Either you will go out of the city with you, or you will let it go immediately, and if you continue to dwell on this, we will not blame me for obstructing official duties and immediately detain you—"

"-Official! Official, please be accommodating, this is my own brother..."I turned my head to look at Gan Lai, who was crying again, "Gan Lai! Remember my sister's words, Ganlai-"

"-Sister!"

Somebody's hand pushed hard, and I fell straight backwards and sat down on the cold, hard masonry avenue. I saw that the carriage didn't care how heartbreaking it was to cry and scream, so with a wave of its short whip, it drove away into the chaotic night fog in the distance.

I didn't bother to get up, I crawled on the ground and wept and stretched my hand in front of me to hold it in a circle of nothingness, but it was in vain, and I could no longer see the shadow of the carriage in the darkness.

"Why don't you hurry up and lie there and do something!" The gatekeeper shouted at me, "If you delay any longer and miss the time to close the city gate, can you afford to blame it?" ”

"—Two big men are embarrassed about a woman in the middle of the night, is this how your chief taught you to do things?"

I and the two gatekeepers were startled, and raised their hazy teary eyes, but it was a young man in white who leaned against the tall city gate and looked at us idly.
