Hearing the words of the old village chief, I was clever and immediately corroborated my body, and I waited for him to tell me about it.

"Xiaoyu is a good girl, she was very cute when she was young, and the whole village liked her very much."

As he spoke, the old village chief seemed to recall some painful past, and his face was full of sadness and sorrow.

"Since she was a child, Xiaoyu has liked to go to the hills behind her, and sometimes she will sit there until the afternoon and come back in the evening. At that time, I would always ask, 'Xiaoyu, why do you always go to the hills to play?' She'd grin, 'Because the sunset is the most beautiful there.' 'She's loved watching the sunset since she was a child, but it's not been long."

When he said this, the old village chief even touched a handful of tears, I don't know what the relationship between him and Xiaoyu is, why he is so sad when he talks about Xiaoyu, and he even sheds tears.

The three of us did not speak, but waited for the old village chief to continue.

"I remember that year Xiaoyu was only ten years old, and said that the palace came to arrest people, and they specially arrested the little girl. Only Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu went to the hills to play at that time, and we didn't find her, and when she came back, she happened to meet people in the palace, so it was inevitable that she would be taken away by the people in the palace. ”

"Xiaoyu was taken away, his parents were unwilling, so they went to look for her, pity her parents, in order to find Xiaoyu, crying and shouting all day long, knowing that they went out for the last time, and the two of them have never come back since then."

When he said this, the old village chief's expression was very serious, as if he was blaming himself, and he was also very sad.

"Old village chief, it's been so many years, I hope you can let it go!"

Hearing this, I probably understood, it seems that Xiaoyu was kidnapped when she entered the palace, as for whether those people were from the palace, it is unknown, but Xiaoyu did enter the palace, it may be that she was indeed taken by someone in the palace, or it may be that someone else pretended to be a person in the palace and bought her into the palace.

But no matter what, her parents are also the most serious victims, in order to find Xiaoyu, they have exhausted their lives, and they did not come back in the end, I don't believe they are still alive, it is very likely that they died on the way to find Xiaoyu.

"The palace never forcibly recruits palace maids, they are all ordered to recruit people, and those who go voluntarily will also give their families a compensation, this is not what the palace people say, those people back then were impersonated."

Ki-hee's words took me by surprise, my mouth opened wide and my eyes widened. But I believe his words, there are also rules in the palace, no matter which dynasty, no matter how corrupt it is, it is very strict about recruiting palace maids, and it is impossible to rob it forcibly.

And at this time, the Qing Dynasty was not a time of mediocrity and incompetence, they were Manchus, and the Later Jin Dynasty rose, in order to better rule the Han people, it was impossible to do such a thing, because it would arouse public anger and undermine their rule.

Whether from an institutional or political point of view, it is impossible for people in the palace to forcibly solicit it.

"For so many years, I have never been able to let go of this matter, but I didn't expect to meet you today, otherwise I am afraid that these words will be taken to the loess."

The old village chief shook his head, his face full of helplessness.

"Who are Xiaoyu and her parents?"

I was silent, not knowing how to comfort the old village chief, but at this time, Qixi's words not only shocked me and Aunt Wang, but even the old village chief trembled.

"Bang dang!"

At this moment, there was a noise in the kitchen of the side room, and I hurriedly turned my head to see that it was the old woman who had finished getting it to the ground. She hurriedly squatted on the ground and picked up the broken bowls, I don't know why, Qixi's words suddenly made the atmosphere in the whole room weird.

Each of us was very nervous, and he was staring at the old village chief, his eyes were very sharp, as if he could penetrate the old village chief and see his internal organs directly, and the old village chief only needed to tell a lie, and he would be able to distinguish it immediately.

"Who the hell are you guys, and what are you trying to do?"

The old village chief exhaled deeply, then looked at us and asked, it seems that he said this with a lot of courage.

It's like fighting tyranny.

"We are not evil people, if you are not someone from Xiaoyu, old village chief, why do you remember this matter so clearly, and you avoided us from the beginning, you also shed tears when you spoke just now, you showed too many expressions and actions that should not be shown by a person who has nothing to do with Xiaoyu, so I judge that you and Xiaoyu have a great relationship with his parents!"

I have to admire Qixi, I thought that all this that the old village chief and the old woman showed was just sympathy for Xiaoyu's family, but when I thought about it carefully, what Qixi said was indeed very reasonable.

"Old village chief, I have just explained to you the intention of a few of us, we really have no malicious intentions, we just want to find Xiaoyu's family, and bury her ashes, according to her instructions, we want to bury her ashes on the hills, which is also in line with what you said she likes to go to the hills to play since she was a child."

I think the two of them are still wary of us, and they are still very strong, but I really have no other way to make them believe, I can only say this, I hope it works.

"Well, are you really what you say?"

The old village chief was about to say this to us, and I nodded vigorously and looked at him very sincerely.

"Xiaoyu is my granddaughter, woo woo ~~~"

The old village chief's words were like a thunderbolt from the sky, and they immediately split on me, I never thought that things would develop like this, Xiaoyu turned out to be the granddaughter of the old village chief.

And at this moment, the old woman's cry came from the kitchen. The three of us were silent, the two of them have been old for so many years, how much pain they have endured, and how much grief they have endured that others dare not imagine, we don't know.

They are afraid that this matter has been pressed, just imagine, the beloved granddaughter was snatched away by a thief, and then their son and daughter-in-law did not know where to go, what a great grief this is, so many years, I am afraid that they have remembered Xiaoyu's granddaughter and their son and daughter-in-law countless times.

But there was no one to comfort them, only the two old men to comfort each other, and only they knew the pain.

"Grandfather? Grandmother? ”

It was at this time that Xiaoyu actually appeared in the house, she looked at the old village chief and the old woman, choked up, and when she called out her grandfather and grandmother, she seemed to have lost a lot of energy, and she couldn't open her mouth at all.

Maybe in her impression, the appearance of the old village chief and the old woman has long been blurred, whether she can remember it or not is still a matter, otherwise she would not have appeared at this time, she should have already found her way home.

"Xiaoyu will definitely be happy to have a grandfather and grandmother like you, she is very happy!"

I looked at Xiaoyu, and I could pass on to her something she wanted to say. I can't stop what happened, I can't keep this tragedy from happening, but I can help them as much as I can.

"Thank you, little girl, thank you very much. You and Xiaoyu are too similar, she also wanted you to be able to talk like this back then, and many people liked it. ”

The old village chief seemed to notice that there was something wrong with crying in front of us, and it was not appropriate for the occasion, so he immediately wiped away his tears.

"Thank you, old village chief!"

I'm glad I didn't come in vain. I also think of my grandfather, who also loved me like this.

Grandpa, I want to come back to see you!

Next, when we were eating, the old village chief and the old woman told us about Xiaoyu's childhood, although it was a memory, their faces were full of smiles, and they missed the life of a family of five very much.

And Xiaoyu sat on the side and listened to us quietly, no, she would also let out a few words of laughter because the old village chief said something about her childhood, a very happy laughter.

After dinner, after resting for a while, we went back to sleep according to the room assigned to us by the old woman, as for the burial of Xiaoyu's ashes, the old village chief said that he was going to go to the village chief to see which day was more suitable, and he would tell us tomorrow.

I also asked Aunt Wang to hand over Xiaoyu's ashes to the old village chief first, they held the ashes jar, although there was no crying, but the tears fell vigorously, and finally the old village chief took Xiaoyu's ashes to the incense at home to worship, and also lit three incense sticks in front.

I saw that there was a spiritual seat on Xiaoyu's ancestors, but I didn't see the spiritual position of Xiaoyu's parents, I asked why, and the old village chief and the old woman cried and said that they didn't believe that Xiaoyu's parents were dead, as long as they didn't see the bones, they wouldn't believe it.

Although this matter is very suspenseful, I also think they just don't want to accept this fact, but I didn't break it, this kind of sad thing, it's best not to break it.

When people die, it is better to stay in their hearts.

"Gege, thank you!"

As soon as I lay down, I heard Xiaoyu's voice, I looked up, Xiaoyu was kneeling in front of my window, she looked at me quietly, her small mouth narrowed into a slit, her face was full of happiness.

"Xiaoyu, what are you doing here? How did you kneel for me? Didn't I say that I don't allow you to kneel for me, and I don't allow anyone to kneel for me, although I am Gege, but we are all equal, you know? ”

I was startled, and immediately helped Xiaoyu up, I don't know why, as long as someone kneels for me, I will be very panicked.
