When Meng Yuyun thought of the group of people in the beggar village again, it was already a month later, and the wind was gradually getting colder, so she carried the fifty taels of silver she got from solving the case and carrying the general burden.

When I came to the beggar village again, the white silk in my eyes wrapped around the small thatched house, and there was no one on the bare road, and this time I saw the beggar village, which seemed to be more and more lifeless than last time.

"Dead here?" Tang Nan frowned, obviously a little unhappy, "Why do you always encounter dead people?" ”

Meng Yuyun's eyelids jumped, and she said angrily: "You can't come!"

Don't look at Meng Yuyun's young age, she is still angry and presentable, she swept the whole village with her eyes, and shouted tentatively: "Is there anyone?" Is Qiao Niuer there? ”

She was answered by an endless silence.

Meng Yuyun sighed, took a deep look at the village, and turned around to leave.

"Sister Meng! Is that you? A cowardly voice came from the thatched hut.

Qiaoniu timidly poked out a head, and a white cloth was tied to her head, which was particularly conspicuous.

Meng Yuyun had more or less guessed in her heart, but her eyes fell on the corpse swept by the grass, and she was still shocked.

It was Xu Laogen who died, his cheeks sunken deeply, a rough straw mat wrapped around his corpse, and some dead grass fell on his face. Xu Laogen also had a deep wound on his neck, which had coagulated a bloody scab and was black and purple.

The corpse looked to have been sitting for a few days, and it was a little stinky, and there was a foul smell in the cramped thatched hut, and flies buzzed around the corpse.

"How so?" Seeing this scene in front of her, Meng Yuyun's eyes widened in shock, and the smell of corpses in the room really made her a little sick to her stomach.

She covered her mouth, and her eyes turned silently red.

Meng Yuyun really couldn't believe that the corpse on the ground was the old man who was still strong some time ago.

"Five days ago, a group of people in black broke into here, they took away the young brother and uncle, and the grandfather rushed up to protect the brother...... "Qiaoniu's expression was quite normal, but her voice was trembling, "was wiped with a knife." ”

At that time, she was hidden in a straw pile by her grandfather, and she hid in it tremblingly, revealing a pair of eyes, silently watching everything that happened in the outside world in her eyes and remembering it in her heart.

As soon as she closed her eyes, she could recall the appearance of her grandfather being killed in the thatched hut red with the rich blood.

"And how did you survive these days?" It was Tang Nan who asked this.

"I still have some wild vegetables at home, so I'll eat these." Qiao Niu'er said as she bent down to pick up the so-called wild vegetables that had already been left in the corner. There was not a hint of displeasure or sadness on her face.

The little grumpy girl seemed to have grown up overnight, her withered grass hair was hard and tangled, and there were more indescribable things in her clean eyes at this time.

Meng Yuyun was like a fish in her throat, she licked her dry lips with red eyes, and the heavy silver on her shoulders seemed to be laughing at her for being late.

Qiaoniu was younger than her, only seven or eight years old, and she was forced to accept all this.

Meng Yuyun reminded herself that she couldn't cry, she opened her arms and gently hugged Qiao Niu'er into her arms, the two little girls snuggled together, Meng Yuyun endured the sourness of her nose, and said softly: "In the future, my sister will raise you."

Just like in the past, Meng Yuhuan protected Meng Anan.

Meng Yuyun used a silver ingot to find two woodcutters to help bury Xu Laogen, and hastily erected a tombstone, which was placed in front of the thatched house.

Qiao Niu'er respectfully bowed to the bulging grave three times, she raised her hand and swore to the sky, "Grandpa, Qiao Niu'er will definitely find her brothers, and she will definitely help you take revenge!" ”

The hateful oath made Meng Yuyun stunned, she stared at the small figure kneeling on the ground in a complicated way, revenge should not be undertaken by a child.

But on second thought, I'm also a child.

Meng Yuyun pulled her lips and smiled silently, after going through so much, she almost forgot that she hadn't grown up yet.

Zhang Qizuo listened to Qiao Niu'er accompanying her grandfather's corpse alone for a few days, and became more and more dissatisfied with her arrival, anyway, there are still a few empty rooms, but it is just a matter of adding an extra pair of dishes and chopsticks.

Meng Yuyun poured hot water, took off her dirty clothes for Qiao Niu'er like a decent person, and she learned to wash Qiao Niu'er's hair gently like Sister Bathing for herself.

"Sister, you can change Qiao Niu'er's name!"

Qiao Niu'er's sudden words made Meng Yuyun startled, and the curling smoke made Meng Yuyun a little unable to see the expression on Qiao Niu'er's face, but Qiao Niu'er stared at Meng Yuyun with extraordinarily gentle eyes.

"I'll change your name for you? Isn't that okay? Meng Yuyun smiled and tried to perfunctory.

Qiao Niu'er nodded firmly, "Sister, you can change my name for me!" ”

Meng Yuyun stopped what she was doing, she was silent for a moment, and said, "Do you know what it means to change your name?"

"I know, sister! I do! ”

If it is not a relative, only the master can change the name of the maid.

Meng Yuyun wants to treat Qiao Niu'er as a younger sister, but she is also under the fence, and it is really not suitable to raise a little girl who does not do things. These Qiao Niu'er can see it, so after thinking about it for a long time, she brought up this matter.

"If you insist on it, then ...... Is it good to call it plain? Meng Yuyun looked at her with pity.

"Good!"

On this night, the moonlight was slightly cool.

The raging fire once again swept through Meng Yuyun's dreams, the scorching pain, the fallen relatives, and the collapsed houses......

She carried Sister A on her back, and she didn't have time to cry about the death of her family, and it was dark in front of her, but she desperately escaped by will.

The man in black who followed closely behind him, holding a cold light weapon in his hand, chased after her.

In the small room, the girl curled herself up tightly under the quilt, and she slept unsteadily, muttering and frowning together.

There was a man sitting in the tree outside the door, and he looked at the girl on the bed from a distance through the window, and the light in his eyes was blurred.

"You really like her!"

Tang Nan didn't know when he stood under the tree, he tilted his head and stared at the peerless man on the tree, and a trace of disgust quickly flashed in his eyes.

Qin Jing'an had a smile on his lips, he reached out and stroked his blown hair, and glanced at Tang Nanyu with a condescending gaze.

"Didn't you approach her just to force me out?"

"I'm so disgusted with the way you look like you're on top!" Tang Nan wanted to fly up and stood firmly beside the man, "It seems that no one can get into your eyes." ”

Qin Jing'an looked directly at Tang Nanyu very calmly, "You are Qingyou's younger brother, I won't hurt you by half a point, but you stay away from her!" This is my prey! ”

"Prey? She's in your eyes, sure enough, she's not even a person! For some reason, Tang Nanyu's gaze couldn't help but fall on the girl's face, and the pale face made his heart tighten.

"Don't talk about yourself so well, for you, she only has the value of use." Qin Jingan sneered.

Tang Nanyu didn't answer, he quietly looked at the girl who couldn't sleep well in the room, and denied Qin Jing'an's words in his heart.

For him, Meng Yuyun is not only the value of use.
