Chapter 9: The Names of the Seven Babies

"Well, the eldest brother said that when a mother has a soft heart, she will not ignore her children. As long as we all call you mother, you won't ignore us. The little girl told with sparkling eyes.

Listening to this child's tone full of admiration for the eldest brother, Hong Xiaoduo can understand, a group of children who were abused by that wicked person have a big brother who can take care of them, and he is their backbone.

Whatever the eldest brother says, they are all convinced.

It's just that Hong Xiaoduo didn't expect that the answer he wanted would be like this, so simple.

The reason for calling her mother sounds very reasonable, many fathers in this world can be irresponsible and ruthless to drop their children, but mothers will not, it is the hard work that she gave birth to in October with full expectation, and it is the meat that fell from her body.

Of course, this is a bit one-sided, not all fathers are selfish, and it is not that mothers who are not ruthless and do not want children, that is a minority.

Hong Xiaoduo vaguely remembers what a celebrity said, mother is not a person to rely on, but a person who makes dependence unnecessary.

But the premise of all this is first and foremost biological, right?

For those who are not their own children and are completely unfamiliar, and there is no kinship to be involved, a woman in the face of such a thing is just a mother's sympathy, and will give some help within her ability.

Like these children in front of them, they regard her as the only lifeline they can grasp.

They put their hopes in a title, and it was the only thing they could think of, and anyone who heard it would be funny, but they thought it worked.

But from their point of view, there is no other way for them to do it.

Although Hong Xiaoduo's time here is very short, he feels that this dynasty does not seem to be very peaceful, and people's lives are not easy.

The big boy who was close to him noticed that Hong Xiaoduo's expression was a little wrong, dragged the little girl's hand to the side, and asked in a low voice, "Are you not well-behaved?" Upset your mother? ”

The little girl shook her head again and again, turned her head and looked at her mother, is her mother unhappy? It seems like yes!

I didn't know if it was because of what I said to my mother, and I was afraid of being blamed by my big brother, so I didn't dare to tell him with my mouth pursed.

The small actions of these two had already fallen into Hong Xiaoduo's sight, and she pretended not to see it and patted her face: "Everyone is here, let's set off when we are all together, and strive to get to that village before dark." ”

The children immediately looked at each other, nodded to each other, and seven of them were together.

As soon as the big boy squatted down to put the little girl on his back, Hong Xiaoduo stepped forward and put the child on his back with a quick move, and dragged away the cloth belt used by the big boy to carry the baby.

"Mother, I can do it." The eldest boy was still nervously guessing why this 'mother' was unhappy, but now seeing that she took the initiative to carry the youngest child, his heart suddenly became more steady.

No matter why this 'mother' was in a bad mood just now, but she didn't want to leave them, that's fine.

"You take care of the rest, hurry, don't be verbose." Hong Xiaoduo said while tying the little girl behind her with a cloth belt, but it was always not good to tie it up, and the big boy hurriedly stepped forward to help.

One big and seven small continued to hurry, although they were still afraid of being chased by the wicked, but they didn't seem to be as afraid as they were at the beginning.

Hong Xiaoduo is secretly glad that the weather is a little cool but not very cold in this season, and it is not raining.

Otherwise, it will be miserable.

Bored on the road, Hong Xiaoduo chatted with the children.

The seven children were all people who did not know where they were, and who was in the family, and they had been with the wicked man for as long as they could remember. He took them around begging, and he used the money he asked for to buy wine and food.

The children eat all the leftovers they begged for, because of the old wars, the people are not having a good time, and the leftovers are not available every day, or they will starve.

The most fearful thing is that they can't get money, and the wicked people will beat them to vent their anger when they have no wine and food, and he will not cripple them because he will be very afraid and hurt, and they will continue to beg without delay.

When she heard the children say this, Hong Xiaoduo suddenly didn't worry about whether she had killed that person by mistake, such a bad person deserved to die, and it was not a pity to die.

The names of the children, Hong Xiaoduo wanted to scold her mother even more when she heard it, because none of the seven children's names were normal.

Even if it's a small stone, the dog's egg can be said.

However, no, the biggest boy is called a piglet, and then down there are horses, cowboys, sheep, paparazzi, donkeys, and chickens.

It was all from livestock, and he didn't treat the seven poor children as human beings at all.

They didn't think anything at first, until they were laughed at and scolded by other beggars, saying that they were all little beasts, and they didn't know that they were not good, so they never shouted at each other.

Originally, I chatted with them because I was bored walking, but the more I listened to them, the heavier Hong Xiaoduo's mood became.

That wicked person, is he a psychopath, enslaving them to raise himself, and giving them such a name?

"Mother, why don't you name us again?" The older boy asked tentatively.

"Well, let me think about it." Hong Xiaoduo responded without thinking about it.

When the children heard that she had promised to name everyone, they were all very happy.

Hong Xiaoduo walked and thought, and felt that naming it was a very simple thing, boy, what kind of mountain is it, what is the peak, the girl is called a cloud, a show, a flower, it is all inspiration at all, isn't this just a matter of hands!

But when she looked back at the big eyes that were excited and full of pure expectation, she suddenly felt very guilty for such a casual perfunctory.

When the children saw that she didn't ask anything anymore, they didn't dare to talk to her rashly, for fear of disturbing her to give her a nice name.

Finally, when the sun was about to set, the eldest and seventh elementary saw a village.

But as soon as they stepped into the village, the people of the village stared at them with wary eyes.

Hong Xiaoduo was a little puzzled, and looked at a middle-aged man standing at the door of the house, so she stepped forward, and before she could speak, the other party first said in a bad tone: "Our family has nothing to eat, go farther." ”

Hong Xiaoduo wanted to say, not to ask for it, but to buy it with silver, but the other party quickly turned around and closed the courtyard door with a bang.

The same is true of several families one after another, Hong Xiaoduo was a little depressed, pointed to himself and asked the children who followed him: "Do I look like a villain?" ”

The children shook their heads in unison, but they didn't seem surprised.

"Mother, don't forget it, I've eaten meat today, and I'm not very hungry now." The big boy whispered.

"Well, mother, it's okay if we can stay up for a few days without eating this time." The other little one also hurriedly expressed his position, and the other children nodded their heads.

Hong Xiaoduo wants to say that I don't believe in this evil, and I can't buy it with money?

But looking at the children's very uneasy expressions, they couldn't bear it: "Okay, let's go far away and find a sheltered place to spend the night, and I'll hunt birds for you tomorrow morning." ”

In this way, Hong Xiaoduo led the children to the outside of the village, and when they reached the exit on the other side of the village, an old voice called out to her.

"Little lady, you don't have to blame the people in the village for being ruthless, you really don't dare to be a good person, half a month ago, a few flowers came to ask for rice, and the big cow family in the village kindly let them in, steamed a pot of dry food, and stewed a chowder.

But who would have thought that they returned in the middle of the night and jumped over the wall into the yard, robbed his family of savings for several years, not to mention, and tried in vain to violate Da Niu's daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law.

In this way, Da Niu was also seriously injured and had to be raised for a long time, and although the daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law kept their innocence, they had nightmares every night.

Hey, in this chaotic year, everyone has it, and the village is afraid of such a time!

I have a few nests here, you give the children a point, and they will be cushioned.

There is an empty house on the side of the road not far ahead, although the roof is half collapsed, and it is good to stay in it tonight to block the wind. ”

It turns out that this is the case, Hong Xiaoduo understood, motioned to the big boy to take the nest head given by the old man, and thanked the old man again.

After walking a few steps, he stopped and turned back: "Old man, please stay." ”

The old man stopped and turned to look at her.

"May I ask the old man, what happened to those evildoers called Hanako? Did you arrest and send it to the yamen? Hong Xiaoduo asked.

The old man shook his head and sighed: "Although those few are all asking for food, they have a lot of strength, and there are also those who know kung fu, where can the people in the village catch it, they have already run away." The yamen has reported to the official, but don't expect to be arrested. ”

"What does that mean?" Hong Xiaoduo was very puzzled.

"The little lady doesn't know, isn't this a dead person, not to mention that the bitter master is a villager in this small mountain village. The people in the government will not bother to investigate and arrest them, unless someone encounters them and recognizes them, and then report to the official. The old man sighed.

"Then what if they asked for Hanako to be killed? What will happen to the people of the Yamen? Hong Xiaoduo blurted out and asked......
