returned to Du Mansion, and Ning Yunyao's performance really began.

She first walked in from the main entrance crying, no matter if the subordinates next to her called her, she shouldn't, just kept her head and walked to the room of Master Du and Mrs. Du.

Not to mention the purple cicada, she had already cried on the road.

In the room, only Master Du was silently watching the chess game.

Mrs. Du was in the kitchen directing her subordinates how to cook and cook, and she still remembered that Ning Yunyao said that she didn't eat garlic, so this time she personally urged the cooks to ensure that not a single garlic clove would be stained in every dish.

Ning Yunyao fell to her knees as soon as she came in.

Master Du was frightened when he saw this, and hurriedly came over to support Ning Yunyao.

He asked, "Son, what's wrong with you?" Who bullied you? You tell me, and I'll rule for you. ”

Master Du and Mrs. Du are both good people, where would they have thought that there is an idiom called "grace will take revenge". They were kind to Ning Yunyao in exchange for their son's whereabouts unknown.

Ning Yunyao pretended to have a grief-stricken expression, only shook her head silently, and didn't say a word.

This is a bad thing for Master Du, he has been valuing women over men, why have he been looking forward to having a daughter for many years. Now that she has been entrusted by the prince of Jingnan to adopt Ning Yunyao, it stands to reason that Ning Yunyao is her daughter. Seeing his daughter crying, he couldn't tell how uncomfortable he was as a father.

"Yun Yao, don't be like this, what the hell is going on?"

Master Du turned his face to look at the maid purple cicada again, and he also looked crying. I thought it was broken, could it be that something happened when I went to pick plum blossoms?

So he yelled: "Where is Du Hao?!" ”

He heard his wife say that his son Du Hao accompanied Ning Yunyao to the back mountain to pick plum blossoms, and now Ning Yunyao cried, I am afraid that it was caused by his son Du Hao arguing with her. So in his heart, he blamed all the faults on Du Hao, and it seemed that this time he had to teach Du Hao a good lesson in front of Ning Yunyao before he would give up.

But he shouted three times in a row, but his son Du Hao did not appear.

And the louder he shouted at his son, the more Ning Yunyao cried.

So I was even more angry.

"This rebel ......"

He muttered in his mouth, ready to go out to find Du Hao.

Unexpectedly, Ning Yunyao hugged Master Du's leg and cried and said, "Dad, it's all my fault, it's all my fault." Brother he ......"

Master Du's mood suddenly became very complicated. There are three emotions mixed with anger, joy, and worry. Angry because he thought Du Hao had bullied Ning Yunyao, happy because Ning Yunyao called her father for the first time, and worried because where did her son Du Hao go......

Ning Yunyao choked up and couldn't speak.

The maid Zicicada sobbed and said for her: "Master, please don't blame the second miss, the second miss is also innocent." Du Gongzi accidentally fell off the cliff on the way to climb the mountain with us, and I and the second lady were scared at that time, and immediately ran to find someone to save Du Gongzi, but who knew that after finding someone, I came back to see that Du Gongzi was gone. The second lady and I were afraid that something would happen to Du Gongzi, so we searched around the entire back mountain several times, but we couldn't find Du Gongzi. I really can't help it, so I'll come back and report to you. ”

"What?!"

Bang.

Mrs. Du, who was just about to bring the soup in, heard this, and the soup bowl in her hand fell to the ground.

Then immediately after that, the whole person fainted.

Seeing this, Master Du also panicked. I didn't know which end of the situation I should deal with first at the moment, so I could only quickly run forward and hug my wife and pinch her hard.

"Madam, wake up, don't scare me......"

A good Du family suddenly fell into a situation of family ruin.

But Ning Yunyao didn't care about this. She hastened that she had finished the play herself, and it was time to go back to her room and ponder the development of spices.

So he gave the maid Zicicada a look, and the master and servant took advantage of the chaos to retreat.

The other side.

Du Hao was indeed rescued.

He was rescued by a farmer who lived nearby.

The farmer Lao Niu is about 50 years old, and he is an honest farmer.

His wife died young, and there was only one teenage daughter at home.

Because it's winter, there's not much farm work to do in the fields. He went up to the back mountain every once in a while to catch a hare or gouge some wild vegetables to take home.

Today, Du Hao, who also fell on the cliff in the process of catching hares, carried Du Hao, who was already unconscious, back home.

The youngest daughter, Tian Hua, lit firewood in the house to make the house warmer.

Lao Niu carefully bandaged Du Hao's wounds, and then carried him to the bed to lie down and rest.

Tian Hua looked at Du Hao curiously and asked her father, "Dad, do you think he wants to be the son of a rich family?" ”

The old cow smoked a dry cigarette and nodded. "I guess so."

It is not difficult to see his approximate identity from Du Hao's dress, although his father is only an eight-rank official, and he is not a wealthy family, but in the eyes of farmers like Lao Niu and Niu Tianhua, he is already a very rich son.

Tian Hua sat on a small wooden bench and used a long wooden stick to pry the charcoal fire.

"Dad, why did you say that he was so careless that he could fall off a cliff. When I was three years old, I followed you up the mountain to catch rabbits, and I never fell. ”

The old cow exhaled a cloud of smoke and smiled. "I don't know, probably because his life is more squeamish, and our life is cheaper."

Lao Niu had never gone to school, and he was illiterate, so he couldn't speak very elegant words. But everything he said was very truthful and sincere, and there was never the slightest falsehood.

Tian Hua is also a child with solid eyes, she raised her face like a red persimmon blown by the cold wind, and said with a smile: "If that's the case, I'd rather my life be cheap, at least I can live a peaceful life." ”

"Yes......" Du Hao woke up and happened to hear the conversation between the father and daughter.

He was immediately filled with emotion.

"Little sister, you're right. Sometimes life is cheap, at least you can live a peaceful life. Don't worry about who will harm you, and don't worry about whether you are in the way of others' business and become a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh. ”

This fall did not make Du Hao lose his memory, nor did it break his brain.

However, his leg was broken.

And the old cow is just a farmer, and he doesn't know how to heal and bones.

It is estimated that Du Hao's leg is disabled.

"Oh, young man, are you awake?" The old cow immediately extinguished his dry smoke, afraid that it would choke him. "Why don't you lie down again, I'll let my daughter cook for you."

As he spoke, he glanced at Tian Hua and asked her to cook rice porridge.

"I'm an ordinary farmer here, there is no big fish and meat, I don't know if the coarse tea and light rice are suitable for your appetite. Why don't you tell me where your family lives? My daughter and I can send you home. ”

Du Hao shook his head, "I don't want to go home for the time being." Uncle, first of all, thank you for saving your life, and secondly, please take me in for a few days. Although I don't have any silver on me, the jade pendant on my waist is still worth a few dollars, so I'll give it to you. It is used as the money for food and lodging for these days. I don't dislike coarse tea and light rice, and I love to drink rice porridge on weekdays. ”

Du Hao said and untied the jade pendant on his waist and handed it to Lao Niu.

Lao Niu naturally didn't dare to accept such a valuable thing, "No need, young man, you keep this thing." If you feel embarrassed, teach my daughter a few words in the few days you stay at my old cow's house. Our family is poor, and we haven't sent her to school for a day since she was a child, and now she can't even write her own name. Hey, I don't want my daughter to be as illiterate as I am in the future. But I really can't make more money to support her education, and now that you're here, you can help me teach her. My old cow is here to thank you. ”

"No, no, Uncle Niu, it should be me who thank you." Du Hao was very moved, he couldn't imagine that there was a strong family affection in this small farmer's family. This old man and this little girl are so kind and warm, just like the charcoal fire that rises in this house, which makes people feel warm.
