Chapter Eighty-Three: The Story of Red Rose 1
"Actually, we are three people...... "Red Rose's eyes crossed with grief.
"Oh? I heard the prince say that you three children depend on each other, but he didn't say anything about your relationship. An Lan directly betrayed the male protagonist.
Hearing An Lan's words, Red Qiang seemed to be even more sad.
"The three of us are brother and sister, and the three of us are brother and sister." Hongqiang spit out this sentence, as if it didn't emphasize the point enough, and added another word to say this sentence again.
"The three of you are brother and sister, he is the elder brother and you are the younger sister, so what is the identity of the other person?" An Lan guessed what the identity of the other person in Hongqiang's mouth was?
Hongqiang hooked the corners of her mouth and smiled, and her smile covered too much helplessness: "The other person is our eldest brother." ”
"It's our biological eldest brother, a mother, who has been protecting us since our parents left."
"Then why didn't that big brother show up?" An Lan had a puzzle, since Hongqiang said that he had a big brother, why did he never appear.
What's wrong with your younger siblings? Shouldn't the saddest thing be the big brother?
Hearing An Lan say this, a touch of desolation crossed Hongqiang's eyes, and he spit out two words heavily: "Dead." ”
An Lan's heart suddenly swelled up, and he felt sorry for Hongqiang.
"I was supposed to be a damn person." As she spoke, Hongqiang didn't know what she remembered, and a kind of sadness suddenly swelled up in her body.
"Don't do that...... Even if you lose a big brother, you still have an older brother. An Lan patted Red Qiang on the back and said.
"He doesn't deserve to be my brother at all, and if I could, I'd rather be stillborn than meet him." Red Qiang's words can be described as extremely vicious.
An Lan gasped, what did Xiao Liu do wrong to make Red Qiang curse himself so much, he would rather die than meet him.
Red Rose's expression became excited.
"Our father died when we were young, and our mother took us to remarry, and another person added us, so we all changed our surnames." Red Rose's face slowly turned pale.
Changing the surname is still very common, and An Lan also knows a little about these things, but it is a family marrying another family, and then the woman has children, and some will change their surnames in order to promote family affection.
For example, there was a classmate in his former class, after his mother remarried, he changed his surname to the man, but he lived a happy life, but he just changed his surname, which was not a big problem.
In ancient times, it was also a very common thing, and many people would choose to do it.
"That family's surname is Wang, and they are not a good family, and our mother has no status in their family, but she is beaten and scolded all day long, and she has to serve the whole family's food, clothing, housing and transportation. The family originally had two sons, but because they were too poor, no one wanted to marry them. My mother was also unwilling, but she was a woman, how could she support our three children, my mother married him so that we could live. Red Rose burst into tears as she spoke.
An Lan stepped forward in distress and patted Hongqiang's back.
Sometimes some things are really forced to happen, he can think about it, if Red Qiang's mother doesn't marry that man, maybe all three of their children will starve to death.
"I was only three years old when my mother first got married, and although the family was not very good, it was able to support our three brothers and sisters, and my mother was satisfied. Red Qiang said, with a hint of longing in her eyes.
But then the expression became angry.
"Originally, my mother thought that this was the end of this matter, but I didn't expect those people to be so shameless, when I was six years old, there was a great famine in that place, and there was no food or anything, but it was just a small place, how could anyone notice? It's not a great famine, the family is already poor, and now they are even more out of food, and they actually want to sell my mother! Red Rose as she spoke, her expression becoming excited.
"And then what happened?" An Lan had some complications in his heart, he had heard of such a thing before he crossed over, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen to the people around him now.
"Of course my mother refused, so they threatened my mother that if my mother didn't listen to them, they would beat us to death. My mother was distressed, we had to agree, that day we went quietly where we went, but I don't want the wicked to have evil retribution, that day there happened to be bandits from the mountains to plunder, those people all died, the people in the village too, there is no one left, but it's a pity for my mother. Red Rose burst into tears as she spoke.
"The three of us brothers and sisters, because my mother went to look for wild vegetables, so they just escaped a catastrophe, the people in the village died, but the houses and everything were still there, I didn't say three children, and finally our eldest brother decided to stay in the village, and when the bandits came, they secretly ran away or hid in the cellar. Although the village has been looted by bandits, have you found some food, although it is small, but you can still survive. Red Rose suppressed her emotions.
"Why do you go outside when you have already decided to live in the village, and there is food in the village?" An Lan frowned, he really couldn't understand how many children were there, and they couldn't save their lives in the famine, after all, people's hearts were sinister, why did they decide to come out?
"We didn't want to go out, but at that time Xiaoliu was sick, very sick, and the eldest brother went to the mountains to look for medicine, but found nothing, because the bark on the mountain was even eaten by the hungry villagers, and there were any medicinal herbs there. Therefore, in order to save Xiaoliu, the eldest brother finally decided to use the grain to go to the city to exchange for some medicinal materials. Hongqiang wiped away her tears, she didn't want to cry in front of An Lan.
"So you've changed all the food you have, right?" An Lan handed over his handkerchief.
"That's right, we changed all the food we had for medicinal herbs, probably because Xiao Liu's life was good, he was so sick, and he finally came back to life." Red Rose smiled sarcastically.
"Without food, how can we stay in the village, there is nothing in the mountains, although we have a house to live in, but we can't stay in the village and starve to death, and those bandits, they eat human flesh...... When we went back that day, we found that there were many fewer bones, but there were more bones on the ground. If you are to be discovered...... In that case, we might as well go out. ”
