"Good daughter, don't cry, my mother will find you something to eat!" Wang Jiuniang looked at her poor daughter, her heart ached, and she hurriedly went out wearing a thin dress to find food for Ling'er.

After half a cup of tea, Wang Jiuniang walked to the thatched hut with a bowl of cold rice and some pickles.

"Let's eat!"

Wang Jiuniang handed the cold rice to Lan Ling'er, her eyes were a little ruddy and said, she just went to the kitchen to eat early, but she found out that both of them would have no food to eat during this time, but Ling'er was so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back, Wang Jiuniang cried and begged for the fire in the kitchen, and gave out the few pennies she earned by sewing clothes for others, in exchange for a bowl of cold rice and cold dishes.

"Mother... It's cold!" Lan Ling'er took the small bowl and put it cold, raised her bruised little face and said pitifully.

"It's a sin!" Wang Jiuniang sighed, and could only pat her daughter's little shoulder and comforted: "Mother is useless, let you suffer!" said the turbulence in her eyes.

"Mother doesn't cry, Ling'er is full, mother won't cry!" The little girl seemed to see her mother crying, in her heart, only Mother is the best in this world, and the others are bad people. At this moment, the little girl seemed to be very sensible, and stretched out her little hand to help her mother wipe her tears.

The little girl secretly said in her heart, when she grows up, she must let her mother be well fed and dressed. I was thinking about not making my mother sad.

After wiping away her tears, she buried her head in eating the cold rice, her little eyebrows wrinkled slightly, the cold rice seemed to be a little hard, but she didn't make a sound and ate silently, and she would have strength when she was full.

Seeing his daughter so sensible, Wang Jiunian felt relieved and touched his daughter's hair: "Ling'er, when the day dawns, my mother will go to sew clothes for the neighborhood, and when she makes money, she will buy you hot meat buns." ”

Xiao Ling'er buried her head in eating, silently and didn't seem to hear her mother's words, and only raised her head after eating only half of the cold rice. asked a question she was most concerned about: "Mother, why don't my brothers and sisters like me and always beat me, today I was hungry, and after drinking a bowl of soup from my brother, my brother threw me out." ”

In the ignorant psychology of the little girl, she clearly knows that these brothers and sisters are born to the same father, and she also knows that they are her relatives, but she doesn't know that she will be scolded every time they meet.

"Good daughter, if they don't like it, forget it. How can I make a move on you, this is also a bastard!" Wang Jiuniang was already sad, although she saw the injuries on her daughter's body, she never asked, because she didn't dare to ask, she didn't want her little daughter to think that she was a sinful seed, and now Ling'er asked in person, and her heart was also a little flustered, as if she wanted to prevaricate in the past.

"Ling'er Monster. It's good when your father comes back!" Wang Jiuniang now puts all the pain in her heart.

"Dad!" Lan Ling'er looked at her mother in a daze, she had never seen what her father was like since she was born, and her father's status in her heart became great, and she could feel it from her mother's spoken words. As long as my father comes back, my mother and myself will not be bullied.

It was dawn in the morning, Xiao Ling'er had fallen asleep in the thin quilt, and Wang Jiuniang hadn't slept all night. stitch by stitch and thread, ready to buy meat buns for the little girl with the money she earned today.

While doing needlework in earnest, there was a sound of footsteps outside the house. A man who looked like a housekeeper tied up a kitchen fire and entered the backyard.

Behind him was a white-clothed young master of the Lan family, who stepped into the courtyard with a cloudy face.

"Little come out!" The leader of the family was about forty years old, although he was a subordinate in the Blue Mansion, and his status did not seem to be low, he led a few slaves in, stood in front of the hut and shouted.

The eldest young master of the Lan family stood in the courtyard with an interested expression of watching the play, and there was a maid beside him holding hot tea and serving at any time.

Wang Jiuniang heard this scolding, and she was a little helpless in her heart, although she gave birth to a daughter for the Lan family, but before she had any name, both the servants and the master in the Lan Mansion compound looked down on her, and she was always abused and bullied by Bai Yan.

This 40-year-old housekeeper, named Zhang Laosan, usually bullied the two of them, disheveled, and looked like he had just crawled out of the bed.

Wang Jiuniang put down the needle and thread in her hand, walked out slowly wearing a thin dress, glanced at the family and said, "Steward Zhang, is there anything wrong?"

"Slut, look at the good things you have done, the young master has long instructed, let that evil seed be locked in the firewood room and think about it, at a young age, he didn't learn anything, he had to learn to steal, and he dared to steal the young master's bird's nest porridge, so you let her out and do it!" The young master also commanded, you two have no food to eat in the past few days, this kid dares to secretly give you food, which angers the young master, and the family law is already serving!"

After saying this, the surname Zhang was in charge, and looked at Wang Jiuniang with a smile, with a sinister smile on his face, the meaning is obvious, since he has made a mistake, he must naturally be treated equally, this guy has been punished by the rod, and you slut can't escape the family law.

"Are you still human? Ling'er is so young, how can she endure these tortures, she is also the general's daughter, how dare you treat it like this!" Wang Jiuniang was extremely angry when she heard this, and repeatedly tolerated it, so that these servants were going to ride to the head and, if all the punishment came at her, she would continue to endure it, but the meaning of this punishment could not escape even her own little daughter, the mother's nature was stimulated, and she said without the slightest fear on her face.

Her eyes had already seen the eldest young master who came to the courtyard to watch the play, and thought in her heart that it seemed that today's events could not be escaped, but no matter what, she couldn't let her daughter be blamed, how could such a petite body be hurt by this.

"Small, this little sinister should not be born in this world, not even a concubine, you should know that you are just a maid, don't think that you gave birth to a girl for the master, you think that you can turn a black chicken into a phoenix." Even if it is the master, he has never taken you seriously, five or six years, how have you ever seen the master give you a name, it is really a toad who wants to eat swan meat!"

Wang Jiuniang was stunned on the spot by his scolding, her eyes were full of incredulity, although this steward has bullied the two of them, but she has never been so humiliated, because it is estimated that the face of the general, these stewards are also measured, and now that the eldest young master has the backing, it is natural to scold the well, whatever is insulting enough, scold.

"Don't scold my mother!

Just when Wang Jiuniang was stunned, the little girl ran out of the hut angrily, pointing her little finger at the steward and snorting softly.

"Yo he?" Steward Zhang was taken aback, looking at this little girl in disbelief, the people under the leadership of the eldest young master have beaten this little girl a lot, this girl has never known how to cry, and she doesn't know how to talk back, but sometimes she will refute sharply when she hears the insults.

"Little, you dare to scold Lao Tzu!" Steward Zhang was angry, took out a leather whip from his back, and with a 'swish' sound, his eyes were twitched without blinking.

'Smack!'

The whip was very heavy, and the body of the little girl who was pumping was rolling a few times, and the fine skin and tender flesh were peeling apart, and she howled in pain.

Wang Jiuniang saw this, she dared to hurt my daughter like this, she rushed at Steward Zhang like crazy, scratching and biting.

"Let go of me, you slut!" Steward Zhang slapped his backhand, making Wang Jiuniang dizzy.

touched the bleeding tooth marks on his face, and waved his leather whip in anger, beating Wang Jiuniang viciously.

Young Master Lan was watching the play on the side, extremely serious, touched his nose, picked up the teacup and tasted it carefully, watching his sister being bullied, he was not moved, but watched the play with interest, this guy is simply inferior to a beast.

After a few beatings, Steward Zhang suddenly came to his senses and glanced back at Young Master Lan, the other party just nodded from him, and his confidence rose again: "Come on, drag this girl out, just eat and drink for nothing, and steal!"

After a while, the two mothers were thrown out of the back door of the Lan family's compound by a wave of punches and kicks, and Steward Zhang snorted at them: "In the future, the Lan family will not have a place for you to live, and the firewood will not be able to be put down, so fend for yourself!"

After speaking, Steward Zhang closed the back door and disappeared.

Wang Jiuniang, who was scarred, burst into tears, holding Ling'er, who had passed out in pain, trembling for a while.

"It's evil!" Wang Jiuniang cried and asked Cang Tian why she was like this to the two of them.

At this time, an elderly man carrying a burden happened to pass by the street at the back door of the Blue Mansion, walked in slowly, glanced at the mother and daughter and said, "Madam, you are suffering, come with me!"

Wang Jiuniang was stunned, a little unclear, and looked at the visitor with great confusion and said, "May I ask who the old man is?"

"Under the surname Cheng, he was the adjutant general who followed General Lan ten years ago, and later quit the army because of internal injuries and lived a life of idle clouds and wild cranes!" The old man said plainly, looking at the mother and daughter who were full of scars, and couldn't help but sigh movingly: "Since the Lan Mansion can't stay, then follow me to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, which can be regarded as repaying General Lan for his kindness!"

"How can this be done!" Wang Jiuniang was a little wolf, and hurriedly shook her head and said.

"It's okay, if it wasn't for the general who saved my life back then, I'm afraid I wouldn't be alive now, now that the woman is in trouble, Cheng will naturally help you, just wait with me in the mountains and forests, General Lan will return, okay?"

Wang Jiuniang thought about it, and seemed to feel that what the other party said was extremely reasonable, now she must not be able to stay in the Blue Mansion, since she has to wait until the master comes back, she naturally can't let her daughter sleep in the open......, so she agreed!
