Xiao Yue thought to herself, if something goes wrong along the way, there must always be someone responsible.

Otherwise, Xing Xiaoyu can obviously make his own decisions, but he wants to find himself to get an idea, most of which was ordered by Yuan Chenhao to let him listen to his own arrangements.

However, she wanted Xiao Yu to admit this matter in person, she didn't want to have any problems at that time, and she would take the blame in vain.

"The master said, if there is anything, you take the idea, and I will be responsible for protecting you. ”

"In that case, then you lead the horse to a place where there is a tree, and then get into the carriage yourself to take shelter from the rain, and make do with it tonight. "When she goes out, Xiao Yue would rather suffer a little by herself than get into any trouble.

"Childe, for your safety, I think I'd better go to that yard to find out what's going on. I'll go back as soon as I go, and you should be careful yourself. ”

"Hey, hey, little feather... Before Xiao Yue finished speaking, she heard a gust of wind whirring. She hurriedly pulled the curtain of the car and looked around, and found that Xing Xiaoyu had disappeared.

Her teeth itched with anger, this person didn't take herself seriously at all, she looked up at the sky again.

By this time, the rain had become lighter than before, and the sky was still dark, but the clouds had thinned.

She originally wanted to get out of the car to see the situation around her, but she was afraid that Xing Xiaoyu would not be able to find herself when she came back.

She was anxious and angry, so she had to hide back in the carriage, take out the water bag and drink water while scolding him in her heart.

However, as soon as she took a sip of water, Satsuki felt that something was wrong, and now she didn't even have a place convenient for her, and she had to control her diet.

So, she tied the water bag and put it back in the bag, quietly paying attention to the movement outside.

The rain was strange that night, it was getting lighter and lighter, but it showed no signs of stopping.

After a short while, Xing Xiaoyu returned quietly.

"Childe, there are people living in that house, and it is the grandfather and grandson. I just talked to them about spending the night and giving them some money. ”

Xiao Yue asked cautiously, "Are you sure it's a negotiation, not a threat?"

There was a sudden silence outside the car for a moment, and then Xing Xiaoyu said, "After a while, you will know when you see someone." ”

"Okay. Xiao Yue thought to herself, if he came nonsense, she would go back to the car to rest, and she wouldn't go with him.

When she got out of the car, the soles of her feet were not muddy as she imagined, but they were like stepping on soft cotton.

She looked down and vaguely felt that there was a yellowed lawn beneath her feet.

"You just walk on the dry grass so you don't slip, come with me. After Xing Xiaoyu threw down these words, he walked forward.

It rained for most of the day, and the sky was a little misty and shiny.

Xiao Yue walked a few steps, and she didn't know what was going on around her, so she didn't look around, just stared at Xing Xiaoyu's back and kept up with his pace.

Passing through a grove, a courtyard surrounded by mud walls appeared in front of them.

Xing Xiaoyu walked to a dilapidated wooden door, knocked lightly and said, "Miss Fang, I invited my son-in-law here." ”

Satsuki looked at the wooden door with trepidation, only to hear a creak, and the dilapidated door opened half from the inside.

A weak figure half-hid behind the wooden door, and said in a timid voice: "This son, the slave's home is very shabby, I hope the son will not dislike it." ”

"The main thing in the lower part is to avoid the rain, and it is excellent to have a place to cover your head, and you don't dare to expect too much. ”

"Alright, then boy, please come in. The wooden door was completely opened from the inside, and when Xiao Yue was hesitating to go in, Xing Xiaoyu had already raised her feet and stepped into the door.

"Xiao Yu... Xiao Yue originally wanted to say something, but he glared back, and swallowed the words again.

This courtyard is not big, and when Xiaoyue came in, it felt a little familiar.

It was so similar to the courtyard where she first came into this world.

adobe houses, mud walls and mud floors.

Before she had time to think about it, the woman stopped under the eaves, then pointed to a room and said, "This room was originally occupied by me and my mother-in-law, so let's rest the two sons tonight." ”

Xiao Yue found that the family was so poor that they couldn't even light an oil lamp, so she had to say to the vague figure: "This girl doesn't have to be polite, we can rest anywhere." ”

"Childe is polite, you gave so much money, my mother-in-law said that I must give you the best room. ”

As soon as the woman's voice fell, Xing Xiaoyu asked, "Where is the kitchen?"

"To the left of the gate, it's just... She was a little embarrassed and said, "There is nothing to eat at home." ”

"Oh, it's fine. Xing Xiaoyu looked at the sky, and then said: "Girl, I'm really bothering you tonight, you go and rest." He said to Xiao Yue again: "Childe, I'll go to the kitchen to make a fire and bake my clothes, you can rest first." ”

"Well, well, you go quickly, don't catch a cold. The dark coat he was wearing, I couldn't see anything, but Satsuki looked at the drops of water dripping from his head, and it was estimated that he was soaked all over at this time.

After Satsuki entered the house, she found that it was clean except for a little musty smell.

Perhaps because the family is relatively poor, the furniture in the house is also very simple, as if there is only one bed.

Satsuki touched the wall and slowly adapted to the darkness before walking to the bed.

She didn't dare to lie down and fall asleep, but sat down on the bed, leaned against the wall, and took a nap.

But maybe it was because she was too tired, and after a while, Satsuki couldn't resist her tiredness and fell asleep deeply.

It was a long night, but it was a very short night.

Xiaoyue probably slept for less than an hour, and Xing Xiaoyu woke her up.

"Childe, wake up, it's time for us to go. ”

Xiao Yue rubbed her eyes, and when she opened her eyes, the sky was already much grayer.

"What hour?" she sat up and surveyed the empty room.

"Towards midnight, the rain had stopped for half an hour. Perhaps because of his youth, Xiao Yu didn't sleep much all night, and his face didn't look tired, and he looked at Xiao Yue with a pair of small eyes.

"The road hasn't dried up yet, aren't you afraid that the wheels will get stuck in the mud?" asked Satsuki worriedly.

Xing Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment and said: "This way, let's eat something first, this family is quite kind, before dawn, that girl went to the village to find someone to borrow food, and prepared to make breakfast for us." ”

He looked back at the door, and then said, "I'll go outside to see the situation, and you take care of your own safety." ”

"Okay. The cold wind blowing in at the door made Xiao Yue wake up at once.

After Xing Xiaoyu went out, Xiaoyue tidied up her clothes and headdress, and walked out.

Just when she was feeling that this courtyard was inexplicably similar to the place where she appeared in Dongshan, she looked to the right as if she realized something, and found an old woman under the eaves over there, looking at herself with cloudy eyes.
