Xin'er leaned on the chair next to the old woman and sat down, looking up at Ruhua: "Actually, I want to temporarily store the two children here, please Sister Ruhua help me take care of them." Of course, I'll come to see them whenever I have time. The main thing is that I have important things to do now, and it's inconvenient to take them with me! ”

"Looking at my sister's haggard face, she must have encountered something difficult! Sister rest assured, as long as I am still there, I will take care of the two children! Ruhua said, stroking the cute appearance of the baby in her arms again.

The old woman raised her hand, touched the baby in Xin'er's arms, and hesitated, "Girl, your child seems to be less than a month." It's not that my old woman doesn't want to help her benefactor, it's just that our family is surrounded by walls, and I'm afraid that we will treat them badly! ”

"Oh, you don't have to worry about that!" Xin'er immediately took out all the silver she had brought with her when she went out from her arms, put it in the old woman's hand, and said with a smile, "Auntie, if you take this, it will be regarded as me asking you for help!" ”

"I can't do it, I can't help it!" The old woman touched the bag of silver and hurriedly withdrew her hand, "How can we take the benefactor's things?" ”

"Mother!" Ruhua said sincerely, "You just take it!" Our family is like this, and the girl will know it at a glance. Put these two lovely children here, naturally you can't treat them badly. ”

The old woman nodded, and finally accepted the bag of silver. Hurriedly said: "Ruhua, look at what else is at home, cook a light meal, and invite the benefactor to have a meal!" ”

"Okay!" Ruhua returned the baby in her arms to Xin'er, and went busy.

Xin'er raised her eyes and looked around at the simple thatched house. The light of the eye just saw the large pillar that had been standing in the doorway. His vigilant eyes looked at her, with obvious wariness in his eyes. When Xin'er looked at him, he immediately turned and walked to the side.

"Pillar, what are you doing? Go see if there is water in the tank, and if not, fetch water! "The old woman was blind, but her ears were very sensitive. It was as if he sensed what the pillar was doing.

"Mother......" Su Zige gently tugged at Xin'er's clothes, and he seemed to feel the strangeness of this family.

Xin'er gently patted Su Zige's hand and told him not to say anything. Raising her eyes to look at the old woman's closed eyes, she said casually: "Auntie, you can't see with these eyes all along." Or is it something that you can't see later? ”

"The benefactor doesn't know. I've only been blind for a few years, and I used to be able to see. The old woman raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, "Five years ago." We don't live here either. Live in the village below. That. I went into the kitchen to cook as usual. As soon as I opened the door, the entire kitchen was filled with choking smoke. I thought the kitchen was on fire, shouting. While running in to put out the fire. Luckily, it was a pile of freshly chopped wet wood, and the fire didn't ignite, but it filled the room with smoke. At this time, there was a sudden sound of panic and yelling from the pillar outside, as if it was fighting with someone! I think there must have been a bad guy who got into our house. Then, I heard the screams of the flowers! I knew something was wrong, and I turned around and tried to run out to help, but the smoke was so thick that I couldn't find my way! Also, it became more and more difficult for me to breathe, and then I passed out! ”

At this, tears welled up in the old woman's closed eyes. It seems that when I think of that moment, I still have palpitations. Is this why their family of three would rather live here in poverty?

"And then?" Su Zige asked curiously.

"Then I woke up, but I couldn't open my eyes again! I groped around looking for pillars and flowers, and found that I was not in the house at all, as if I had been thrown into the forest. I thought it must have been those bad people who thought I was dead and threw me out. I didn't expect my old wife to live with a big life! The old woman continued, "I thought something had happened to Zhuzi and Ruhua, and my old woman must find out what was going on. However, the pillar found me and said that he was only injured, but that the child ...... flower."

"What's wrong with Ruhua?" Su Zige continued to ask.

"Ruhua was kidnapped by the bad guys!" As she spoke, the old woman began to weep sadly.

"How did Ruhua come back?" Xin'er couldn't help but say, and glanced up in the direction of the kitchen.

The old woman sighed lightly again, and then, a happy smile appeared on her face: "I thought that Ruhua would not come back, and I couldn't help crying every day!" My eyes will never get better. However, more than a year later, the pillar brought Ruhua back. He said that Ruhua has lost his memory, and he wants me not to mention the past again, so as not to make Ruhua sad when she knows it! ”

"And then, did you move here from the village?" Xin'er asked.

"After that, we moved here! The pillar said that our house had been destroyed by that fire, but luckily he rescued me! We had been living here for over a year when we found Ruhua! The old woman explained carefully.

Listening to the old woman's story, Xin'er finally understood why this family always gave people strange feelings, especially the pillars. In fact, this is why Zhu Zi is always hateful of outsiders and does not like strangers to his house.

However, this seems to make sense on the surface, and she still feels that something is wrong. The old woman said that the kitchen was all wet wood, and it was not burning at all. Why did they burn down the house again? Could it be that after the old woman fainted, the fire burned again?

"Auntie, may I look at your eyes?" Xin'er said, already raising her hand to open one of the old woman's eyes, and examined it carefully, "Can you feel the light?" ”

"Yes!" The old woman replied, "Ever since my body was healed by my benefactor, my eyes have been able to feel light. However, my old wife doesn't expect to be able to see it, as long as the pillar and Ruhua can be around! ”

Xin'er took out a bottle of perfume with the effect of invigorating blood and brightening her eyes from her arms, dropped two drops and gently rubbed them on the acupuncture points on both sides of the old woman's eyes. smiled: "Auntie, how do you feel now?" ”

"It feels cool, and these eyes seem to be much lighter!" The old woman laughed and said, "Can the benefactor still cure my wife's eyes?" ”

With a "pop-" sound, something fell to the ground outside the house.

"Pillar, what are you doing if you don't go to fetch water?" It is said that the ears of the blind are particularly sensitive, and this is true. After the old woman shouted, the figure of the pillar shook and left again!

Xin'er frowned, hasn't this pillar already gone to fetch water? When are you standing outside again? Was he out of curiosity, or did he deliberately eavesdrop on her and the old woman's words. Su Zige's delicate brows were also twisted together, and he walked to the door and looked at the figure of the pillar leaving. Children are not like adults, when they have doubts in their hearts, they will show it very directly.

"Don't care, don't care, the pillar of our family is an honest person. Ever since that happened five years ago, he's been so alert that he doesn't even talk much! Even my mother, he is not very close! However, he is still a filial child, otherwise how could my old wife live to this day? Having said that, the loneliness on the old woman's face was still unusually obvious.

"Yes, the eldest mother's children are very filial!" Xin'er smiled and put the bottle of perfume in her hand in the old woman's hand, "Auntie, remember to use this to scrub your eyes every day, there is no other use, just to make your body better!" ”

The old woman took the fragrance and said very happily: "Thank you, thank you, thank you!" ”

"Huh! Auntie, don't call me from benefactors, just call me 'Xin'er'! In the future, I will often come to disturb the eldest mother! ”

"If you don't bother, just treat this as your own home! You're a lucky star for our family! Hehe......" said the old woman, laughing again.

Perhaps, the family has not entertained guests for a long time. Although the meals are simple, they are estimated to be the best things in the house. The old woman was the happiest of all, and often laughed so hard that she couldn't close her mouth. Ruhua was exactly the same as the smoke willow in her memory, and she was careful and thoughtful in everything, but she could see that she had a lot on her mind. And the pillar, completely with a straight face. He didn't speak, he just ate his own food.

Xin'er left with Su Zige, and Ruhua hugged the two babies to send them off. Looking at Ruhua and Yanliu's exact expressions, she not only asked, "Sister Ruhua, do you remember what happened four years ago?" ”

Ruhua shook her head: "I can't remember, a lot of it was from my mother and Brother Zhuzi." ”

"Is there no image at all?" Xin'er asked.

"Nope. However, I dream occasionally, and I always dream of something unrealistic! Everything in my dreams and everything in my reality are two worlds! Ruhua smiled bitterly, "Maybe I usually fantasize too much!" ”

"What do you dream about?" Xin'er grabbed her hand, looking a little eager.

Ruhua saw her eagerly grabbing her hand, and couldn't help but be a little stunned: "What's wrong with my sister?" ”

"Uh." Xin'er realized that she was out of shape, and hurriedly let go of her hand, chuckling, "Actually, Sister Ruhua is really too similar to a sister I knew before, the first time I saw you, I thought you were her." ”

Ruhua was silent for a moment, and then said, "How can I be a friend of my sister?" Perhaps, I really resemble that girl! It's not early, if the girl is in a hurry, don't delay! ”

Xin'er hugged the two lovely children again and kissed them reluctantly. However, when she handed over the child to Ruhua, she accidentally saw a dark blue glass pendant around her neck. The glass pendant was familiar to her, it was an ornament on the hilt of the sword of Ye Rumo, and it was the same as the dark blue glass beads inlaid on the scabbard.

"Sister Ruhua, where did you come from?" She grabbed the pendant around Ruhua's neck, but on the ordinary red rope, there was a rare glass pendant, which seemed to be very disproportionate. (To be continued.) )
