"And other people's nature is not bad," Bao Yuan's voice even had a little comforting gentleness, she whispered, "Except for good betting, there is nothing else......

“…… What about the injury on Niannian's hand, how did it come about? ”

The chopsticks in Bao Yuan's hand paused, and she raised her eyes to look at Bai Ling, "Life is like this, you ...... You can't hold on to one or two little things. ”

Bai Ling choked there for a moment, "Hitting people and gambling is a trivial matter, so what is a big thing?" ”

Bao Yuan sighed, "I shouldn't have told you that just now. ”

The air suddenly froze.

Nian Nian sensed the change in the atmosphere, but she was still too young to even understand what Heli meant, but she vaguely felt that the sister in front of her seemed to be saying that her father was not.

She wanted to speak, but she was afraid of provoking her mother's tears.

Bai Ling suddenly found that she had talked to death - but when facing Bao Yuan, she could not listen calmly.

"He doesn't always beat people," Bao Yuan put the bowl and said seriously, "He only does it when he drinks alcohol, and he doesn't have spare money every day......

Bai Ling only felt that a mouthful of old blood was stuck in his heart, and Bao Yuan's mouth seemed to be pleading, and every sentence in Bai Ling's ears was aggravating the man's guilt.

"On weekdays, he is also reasonable, and he also knows how to take care of Niannian. I said that the family couldn't open the pot, and asked him to take the money back, and he listened.

"And I went to the yamen to make trouble before, and asked him to receive the silver every day, but he didn't say anything, so I did it.

"No one is perfect. What's more, I'm not a good girl, I still have a child by my side, he is willing to tolerate me, and I am willing to wait......" Bao Yuan's eyes fell, "Today's gambling is angry, and I left, and I moved to a new house tomorrow, and my brother will come to the door to make trouble again, even if I have more silver, can I keep it?"

"You don't understand." Bao Yuan glanced at Bai Ling, and then wanted to say something, but endured it again.

For a while, only the sound of Bao Yuan and Nian Nian swallowing vegetable soup was left in the room.

"I'm full~!" Nian Nian picked up the empty bowl and showed it to Bao Yuan.

"One more point, can you eat it?"

"You can eat it!" Nian Nian nodded hurriedly, "I can eat another bowl." ”

Bao Yuan smiled, took the bowl to the back of the stove to add it, and when she came out again, Bai Ling was no longer there.

The door was open, Nian Nian stood at the door, and turned around when he heard the voice, "Mother, that sister is gone." ”

"Oh." Bao Yuan's expression was a little sad, but he quickly smiled slightly, "Have you said goodbye to your sister well?" ”

"That's it! My sister gave me one of these. ”

Nian Nian spread out his hand, and there was a small Lan token in his hand.

Bao Yuan was stunned for a moment, frowning slightly, she took the token and put it in her palm to look at it carefully, her expression was complicated for a while.

She has never been to Lanzihao to do things, but she has heard other aunts who work in Baihuaya say that just as the price of the gold department is higher than that of the water department, the price of the flower kiln with grass and wood characters is also higher, and the people there are generous and can get additional rewards from time to time for their hard work.

I just want to work there, I have to be introduced, and I can't get by without an acquaintance as a guarantee.

"The sister said that if the mother wants to go to her, she can use this card." Nian Nian said softly, "Mother, who is this sister?" ”

"Oh, it's my mother's former friend."

"Is it a good guy or a bad guy?"

Bao Yuan laughed and patted Nian Nian's head lightly, "...... Of course it's a good guy. ”

Bao Yuan put the token in his sleeve, but after thinking about it, he hid the token under the firewood in the stove.

When he came out again, Bao Yuan squatted down and said to his daughter seriously, "This thing has been put away by my mother, and I can't tell my father if I want to do it." ”

"Got it!" Nian Nian agreed loudly.

……

In the evening, Ai Songqing came back from the music workshop and saw Bai Ling leaning against the railing outside the house, half leaning outside, looking boredly at the dancing warbler song in the ring building below.

"Why are you sitting here alone at such a late hour?" Ai Songqing stepped forward, "It's not like you when you're alone blowing the wind." ”

Bai Ling laughed, and then turned around, "Why don't you look like me...... I feel like me. ”

Ai Songqing went back to the house and put the piano, and then moved a stool to sit next to Bai Ling, and looked down at her gaze, "What are you looking at?" ”

Below is the Lanzi flower kiln that is in business, but most of it is at the back of the house, and the windows are closed.

Occasionally, there are passing figures cast on it, and it doesn't seem to be the most lively time in Baihuaya.

"Just take a look." Bai Ling muttered in a low voice, and suddenly, she turned back as if she remembered something, "Songqing, if you want to appear with me at the end of the month, what are you going to do?" ”

“…… Huh. Ai Songqing stood up suddenly, and his face immediately turned much paler, "I...... I'm going to ...... too."

"No, no, no," Bai Ling hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand, "You don't need to, I'll just assume casually." ”

Ai Songqing sighed and sat down again.

“…… I don't know, either. Ai Songqing lowered his eyes and said, "I...... I probably still can't accept being ......."

"Well," Bai Ling nodded, "Me too." ”

Ai Songqing raised his eyes, "Has Bai Ling already thought about what to do then?" ”

Bai Ling nodded again, and said softly, "Then if there is a chance for you to leave here now, will you leave?" ”

Ai Songqing frowned slightly.

Bai Ling added, "You don't have to sell it to anyone like the last tooth shop business, you just have to go ordinarily, and you can even get a sum of money, enough to settle down outside." ”

Ai Songqing was stunned, she thought for a long time, couldn't help but clench her palms, and said with a little uncertainty, "Yes...... Yes. ”

"Why hesitate?" Bai Ling looked at her.

"Because ......" Ai Songqing looked at Bai Ling, "Bai Ling also said last time, the household registration can't be changed, everyone is the same here, go out...... It's tough. ”

"Then what if the household registration can also be changed, can you go?" Bai Ling asked.

This time, Ai Songqing still didn't answer immediately.

She was caught in some kind of dazed hesitation, and even she didn't know what she was hesitating about.

"Because of tattoos?" Bai Ling tentatively spoke.

But Ai Songqing shook his head.

"What's that worrying about?" Bai Ling was puzzled.

Ai Songqing was still silent, she heard the singing in the distance slowly and leisurely, and through the sound of rain, all the tones became a little unreal.

“…… If you go out, where can you go? ”

She tilted her head slightly, staring at this bustling alley, as if asking Bai Ling, and as if asking herself.

Bai Ling's gaze also sank.

She didn't know how to answer this question for a while.
