There was a few sounds of rain outside the window, and soon the wind stopped again. A faint hazy moon hung in the air, and wisps of tulle-like clouds pierced in front of the moon.

In the dilapidated thatched house, under the dim candlelight, the haggard woman was squinting her eyes, carefully mending a piece of clothing in her hand, and on the side was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, she was lying on the table and drowsy, "Twilight, don't wait for my mother, you go to sleep first!" Qianshan Twilight rubbed her eyes and said strongly: "Mother, I'm not sleepy, Twilight will wait for you to sleep together!" The woman smiled lovingly: "Okay, you go outside to get some water first, and after a while, my mother is busy with her work, and then go and boil some hot water!" "Okay!" Chiyama stood up with a grin, finally having something to do.

The slightly chilly wind completely blew away her sleepiness, she carried the wooden barrel and came to a corner of the yard, where there was a well, and when she was about to put the wooden barrel, she suddenly heard a slight ** sound in her ears, she was shocked, with the faint moonlight, looking around, and finally in the flowers on the side of the courtyard gate, she saw a shrunken shadow.

She boldly picked up the stick and whispered: Who, who's there!

The dark shadow didn't squeak, just twitched and didn't move.

She snorted coldly: "This little thief's eyes are not good, do you also worry about our family being poor like this?"

She tiptoed over, gently pushed away the flowers, and swung the stick to hit it, but the stick stopped in mid-air, because the man in black fell out with the flowers she had opened, snorted, and fainted!

"Hey, I haven't made a move yet, I'm faint, you won't want to rely on me, alas, you can't see death without help!" Qianshan put down the wooden stick in his hand depressedly, grabbed one of the legs of the man in black, and dragged it into the house, fortunately the man in black was not too heavy, "Mother, mother, come quickly!" she shouted anxiously.

When the woman in the house heard the shout, she hurried out, and when she saw this, she came to help, and the two dragged the man in black into the bed in the house.

Under the dim candlelight, the black-clothed man's face was covered with dirt, and he couldn't tell whether it was blood or mud, and the woman hurriedly twisted the veil and wiped his face clean for him, "I don't know if it's a good person or a villain!"

The woman's face was calm: "The girl's family, you go out first." ”

Qianshan saw the dragon and phoenix jade pendant around the neck of the man in black, and exclaimed in a low voice: "Mother, look at this pendant, the texture is delicate, crystal clear, it is an extremely rare treasure, the identity of this man in black is not simple, it is either rich or expensive!" The woman said helplessly: "Mother saw it, you go outside first to wash the dirty cloth." ”

Qianshan Twilight originally wanted to ink for a while, but when she saw that her mother's face was not good-looking, she had to go out first. She was worried about things, and quickly washed the veil, and when she returned to the house, her mother had already taken off the bloody clothes of the man in black and changed into the homely clothes that her father wore when he was alive.

"He was not lightly wounded, but not fatal, and he looked like he was tired from all day of traveling!" said the woman.

"Do you want to get him a doctor tomorrow?" she asked worriedly.

His mother shook her head, "How can I afford to hire a doctor for him, seeing that he is quite strong, he should be able to survive." Wait and see. ”

Qianshan looked at the man's angular side face stupidly, thick black eyebrows, curved eyelashes, and skin as smooth and flawless as porcelain, she sighed secretly: It has been 14 years since she was sensible, this is the most handsome man she has ever seen, those men in the village are smelly and dirty, and they only take a bath once a year, and they are very sloppy.

Her father died of illness very early, leaving her and her mother to depend on each other, and her mother worked very well, so they relied on her mother to sew and mend people, slurry and laundry, fortunately there is such a dilapidated courtyard to accommodate it. Although life is poor, but with her mother, it is a home, even if the days are hard, she feels sweet!

very

Seeing that the man was sleeping very deeply, she boldly stepped forward and gently wiped his forehead, as if it was not burning. So he decided not to pay attention to him, and went to the back room to get ready for bed.

"Xiao Dui," the mother lay on the outside and whispered: "In the spring of next year, you will marry it, and you will have a long night and a lot of dreams when you drag it on!" In the past two years, the eldest son of the Zhang family has come here from time to time, often taking advantage of his mother's absence, touching her, kissing her, she is disgusted, and last time he directly copied the stick and beat him out, which only stopped for a few days, and now the mother has brought up the matter again.

"Mother, I don't want to marry that lewd man. She pleaded pitifully.

After hearing this, her mother let out a long sigh, "Xiaodui, why doesn't my mother want you to marry satisfactorily, but we owe so much silver to the Zhang family, we really can't afford to pay it back, mother, I can't live with you in this life, child!"

"Mother, don't cry", Qianshan Twilight reluctantly smiled, "It's time for Twilight to get married, Mother, don't be sad!" she turned around, tears sliding down her cheeks.

Suddenly remembered that when she was a child, she played with a few good sisters, and they took turns to say who they wanted to marry, and when it was her turn, she said loudly: I want to marry the emperor, I want to be the queen! Several of them laughed and rolled on the ground one by one, "Don't be funny, just you? A woman of unknown origin, still wants to be the queen? Only the high-ranking concubine of the Gaomen Mansion has such qualifications, you are not even worthy of being a maid for the queen, and you actually want to be the queen!" Everyone bared their teeth and grinned hideously.

Soon, the dream of Qianshan Twilight wanting to be the queen in the village was spread by those people, and she broke off contact with those people in a fit of anger!

The night was very late, and listening to her mother's steady breathing, she was even more upset and couldn't sleep. "Why can't I be a queen?" she thinks that her blood is purer than anyone else!" Quietly took out a small cloth bag from under her pillow, which was the silver taels she usually saved by frugality, "Alas, how can it be counted so little, it takes the year of the monkey to gather so much silver to redeem herself, it seems that the only way to marry is to get married." ”

The sound of frogs chirping outside the window was familiar.

In her previous life, she was trapped by love, and she couldn't think of committing suicide stupidly. Later, when she woke up in the middle of the night on the hillside, there was such a lively croaking of frogs in her ears, and she was frightened and frightened, and her mother happened to pass by and carried the young her back, and she had a home from then on.
