Chapter Ninety-Nine: Picking Up a Son

What about Su Bangxiang? After she left that day, because she didn't have much money on her, because in this world, she only knew Qi Qiao, a friend, so she planned to go to Shuiyue Country to find Qi Qiao to help her.

She walked in men's clothes, and in order to reduce some unnecessary trouble for herself, she strangled her breasts flat. When she arrived at the bottom of the mountain, she just in time for an uncle who sold vegetables and his wife to drive a donkey cart to Shuiyue to see her married daughter.

Seeing that she was dumb and pitiful, the old couple let her hitchhike.

Su Wanxiang sat on the donkey cart and passed by several men who ran down to find her.

She followed the old couple to the Water Moon Country. But because she hadn't been to Qi Qiao's mansion, and she couldn't speak, she could only find a way to get paper and pen to write it down before she could ask passers-by.

She went to a place that sold pen, ink, paper, and inkstones, and bought the cheapest paper and pen.

I found an open space and wrote a few pieces of paper, which I planned to use when I asked for directions.

She took the paper and asked a few people, and those people showed her the way, and she walked in the direction they pointed like the mansion of the county lord of Qi.

She finally found the county lord's mansion before dark, but the guards at the door saw that she was mute and did not want to talk to her at all.

In order to keep herself from attracting attention, Su Wanxiang also made herself disgraced. The guards thought she was a beggar, so if they didn't go in to tell Qi Qiao, they would just blow her away.

Su Wanxiang was helpless, thinking that she would spend the night nearby, and when she saw Qi Qiao leave the house tomorrow, she would go to her again.

But they are also worried about her appearance, in case her husband Lin Muran knows, then Shangguan Ziyan and they will also know. Touching the burden on her body, let's find a job that can be done, she decided not to bother Qi Qiao.

It's better to wait for her to settle down and stabilize, and then find a way to meet her and let her keep it a secret for herself.

Su Wanxiang walked down the street with her baggage, because it was very dark, she was a little scared, and she was anxious to go to a place where there was light. I was also in a hurry, and I didn't pay attention to my feet, and I suddenly tripped at this time.

She seemed to hear something, and by the faint light she saw the little boy standing in front of her. The child is about five or six years old, and because it is dark, he can't see clearly, but he only speculates based on his height.

Su Wanxiang thought that she must have bumped into the child just now. I approached him apologetically, and saw that he was very calm.

No way, I can't speak, I can't explain and apologize to him.

She snapped twice, reminding him that she was mute. Let him not be afraid of her, just such a young child, how could he be here!

Qi Fan frowned and looked at the man in front of him, how could he be so unlucky that he actually met a mute.

He is the crown prince of Shuiyue Kingdom, but he was careless and was harmed like this by his own concubine. The concubine had an affair with his second brother Qi Hua, and the two conspired to give him the medicine that turned his body into a five- or six-year-old child, but fortunately he escaped, or he must have been killed by the two of them.

If he wants to recover, he can only wait for more than two years to go to Wanguo Mountain to buy that antidote. Although he is now a child, his mind is that of an eighteen-year-old adult man.

No matter, let this dumb man take him out of here first, and don't let Qi Hua find him.

"Brother, take me out of here, my parents were killed by bad guys, and they are also chasing me, please." Qi Fan said in his immature voice. Pulling Su Wanxiang's sleeve and pleading.

Su Wanxiang saw that this child was so pitiful, forget it, take it, she can be regarded as having a companion. Think of yourself as if you have picked up a son!

Su Wanxiang took his little hand, and the two walked forward.

Walking to the bright place, she saw the child's appearance clearly, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he was a beautiful little boy. It looks very clever, and it can just help yourself.

Qi Fan also looked at Su Wanxiang, a gray-haired boy, estimated to be eleven or twelve years old. He was really worried about his future life, and he didn't know if he could starve to death.

Hey, sigh in my heart!

Su Wanxiang wanted to find an inn to stay for one night, she was also hungry and planned to take the child to eat something more.

She took him to a small inn, because she didn't have much money on her, and she dared to spend it indiscriminately.

After entering, I found an empty table. She took out a paper and pen and wrote the words that she wanted to stay for one night, wanted a room, and asked for two dishes and two bowls of rice, and handed them to Xiao Er.

Xiao Er looked at the two of them, with some contempt in his eyes, "Do you want a good room, or a cheap room?" Said a little impatiently.

Of course, Su Wanxiang could see his contempt, but she could only turn a blind eye, she wrote, a cheap room is fine.

Xiao Er took her and Qi Fan to the backyard, a room closer to the firewood room.

Qi Fan looked at the small room, his brows furrowed, he had never lived in such a bad place. Look at the kid next to him, forget it, he doesn't have any money, so he will take care of it first.

Su Wanxiang took Qi Fan to the well to fetch some water and wash his face and hands. Xiao Er brought the meal into their room, and the two walked in after washing.

There was a small bed inside, barely enough to lay down the two of them.

Qi Fan looked at the kid beside him, but he didn't expect that he could still see it after it was cleaned. Fair little face, skin looks nice. Wouldn't he be the son of a rich family, just like him?

Su Wanxiang took out a paper and pen, she wasn't sure if the child could recognize words, so she wrote simply, "My name is Su Wanxiang, what's your name?" ”

Qi Fan looked at her, how could a man take such a woman's name.

Of course, he couldn't say his real name, and at this time he looked outside, "Xiaoxing." He came up with a random name.

Su Wanxiang knew that he knew how to read, which made her very happy, so that communication was convenient.

She wrote again, "Xiaoxing, how old are you? In the future, you will live with me, and if you have food from me, you will not be hungry. For the sake of convenience, how about we be commensurate with mother and child? ”

Qi Fan's brows furrowed even more, "Are you a woman?" How old are you, you want to be my mother, I'm six years old. ”

"I'm thirteen, I like you very much, you should be my son." After Su Wanxiang finished writing, she touched his head and felt that it was really good to have such a beautiful son.

Qi Fan looked at her a little helplessly, can Thirteen have a son as big as him! Who will believe it?

"No, call you sister, you're too young, no one will believe your mother." Qi Fan felt that calling her sister was already very face-saving for her.

Su Wanxiang thought about it, so she wrote, "Isn't it very early to get married here, it's okay." You should be my son, or I won't take you with me. Su Wanxiang felt that if she walked the rivers and lakes with a son, it should be safer, how to say that she is also a married woman, and no bad person will beat her idea.

Qi Fan saw that the woman was so persistent, there was no way, she had to bow her head under the eaves.

"Okay, I'll call you mother in front of outsiders, but when we're ourselves, I won't shout." Qi Fan said. This is his biggest concession.
