"Click".

Ning Xin's eyes froze, but Qin Ke's chopsticks had already fallen on the table.

"Mo Family...... The famine?" Qin Ke's voice trembled slightly, and those memories came back, filling his heart again at once, making him a little breathless.

"What's wrong with you?" Ning Xin looked at his dejected appearance, and reached out to wipe the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, "Is there something uncomfortable?"

Qin Ke looked at Ning Xin, with a little sadness in his eyes: "Sister Ning Xin, I am also a person who survived the famine. ”

"Huh?" Ning Xin wiped the stains on his chest and clothes, and said with a smile, "Childe, don't be kidding, you are from a noble background, and there is such a thing as a famine...... How could it be ......"

She seemed to be talking to herself.

"It's true. Qin Ke's eyes were complicated, "From Wulonggang, to Pulao Pass, and then to Hu Pengguan......"

He reported the names of the places one by one, and although these names were later told to him by the master, this was indeed the route that the victims of the disaster had fled all the way to the famine.

He followed his parents all the way to the southwest, in fact, he also hoped to go to the country of Wu back then, I heard that the country of Wu was rich, the rice produced every year was stuffed with granaries, and there would be fat big fish on the deck when the river passed by boat......

"Go to Wu Kingdom!" This is the hope in the hearts of almost all the victims.

It's just that there are only a few people who can really enter the territory of Wu.

Ning Xin was just a little strange at first, but listening to Qin Ke report the place names one by one, her eyes also changed from strange at the beginning to shock, and when she got to the back, she couldn't help but cover her mouth with her hand.

When Qin Ke finished speaking, she suppressed the voice in her throat and said with tears in her eyes: "You...... Did you really escape the famine?"

"My father and my mother took me to escape, I was still a young ...... at that time" Qin Ke slowly said those things, in fact, many people in Daoxiang Village were also survivors after the famine, they survived tenaciously in the mountains, and finally reopened the fields, established the village, and gradually lived their lives back to the original state.

It's just that Qin Ke never thought that he would meet someone in Jingwu who had also experienced the famine.

Back then, he had a master who saved him, but Ning Xin was sold to traffickers by his parents and transferred to the Qinglou. Now Ning Xin has indeed reached the realm of the "Wu Kingdom" back then, but no matter how she looks at her current situation, there is only helplessness and irony.

The two looked at each other, and there was a lot of emotion in their eyes.

And Ning Xin's eyes were even more shrouded in a layer of mist, looking at the young Qin Ke, she seemed to see the little brother who had been around her back then.

Maybe it was a floodgate in her heart that opened, she stretched out her hand and slowly hugged Qin Ke's shoulder, Qin Ke was a little uncomfortable at first, but slowly, he felt the strong family affection on Ning Xin's body, and also relaxed his body, leaning his head on her shoulder.

Gao Yishui was laughing and chatting with the girl in the goose yellow dress, the goose yellow girl was obviously a jumpy person, and in a few words, almost the whole person was glued to him. And Gao Yishui seemed to have a confused look, but his heart was very sober, and he glanced at Qin Ke from the corner of his eye, secretly speechless.

This kid, when he first came in, was so scared to death, so soon he hugged someone? The corners of his mouth rose, thinking that this kid was really a little "talented".

It's just that this feeling of closeness doesn't look like a love affair between men and women, but like a ...... How does it feel like for a prodigal son who has been away from home for many years to see his mother again?

Damn, this guy doesn't have any special hobbies, right?

Qin Ke and Ning Xin hugged each other for a short time, but it was not long, Ning Xin let go of her hand, her eyes were soft, her hair was slightly messy, and Qin Ke's face was a little red, the two hugged each other, and the plump on Ning Xin's chest naturally attached to his body, he didn't pay much attention to it at first, but when he noticed this later, his body suddenly stiffened and became uncomfortable.

Ning Xin looked at Qin Ke and said softly, "It's so good, my brother...... He's a little darker than you, but seeing you is like seeing him grow up......"

"Sister Ning Xin, your brother ......" Qin Ke wanted to speak and stopped, after so many years, Ning Xin moved to Jingwu, how could he know the current situation of his family, perhaps, knowing it, it would only increase his troubles and sorrows.

Ning Xin lowered her head, she couldn't draw more lines about her brother's appearance in her mind, so she could only sigh lightly: "It's all in the past...... Now, I only hope that he is still alive, and that it would be better if he could have no worries about food and clothing, and then I would not have come here in vain......"

Qin Ke sat quietly in place, feeling a little sympathetic to Ning Xin in front of him, he thought for a moment, and suddenly said, "Is it good for you to be my sister?"

Ning Xin raised her head sharply and looked at Qin Ke in a daze, today she was able to meet a person who was sympathetic to the same disease, which could be regarded as releasing her pent-up emotions for many years, and Qin Ke's words really surprised her: "What did you say?"

Qin Ke looked at himself and didn't feel that there was anything wrong.

Ning Xin looked at his confused appearance, and burst into laughter: "What kind of words is this? The identity of the son is noble, how can he recognize a dusty woman as his sister?" In fact, in this land of wind and moon, there may not be no people who call her sister, but most of those people are just for flirting, and Qin Ke's eyes are clear, and he has not seen the slightest lust on his face until now, she can see that Qin Ke is telling the truth.

Thinking of this, she was a little grateful and said: "Childe doesn't have to be like this, Ning Xin is very satisfied to meet Childe today." And recognize a ...... like me Sister, it's too ridiculous, I'm afraid that your family will also punish you for this, but it's Ning Xin's sin. ”

"I don't have any family. Qin Ke couldn't help but sigh when he thought of his situation as a lonely person, as well as the master who had been missing for many years.

Although Zhuge Wanling and Master are close brothers and can be regarded as his elders, he still resists the person who can't see through from the bottom of his heart.

In comparison, if you can really recognize a sister who has similar experience, it can be regarded as having one more relative in Jingwu.

"Sister Ning Xin, I'm serious. Qin Ke looked straight into her eyes, "I don't think it's ridiculous, I'm not a big person, a son or something, I can't afford it." ”

Ning Xin was silent, she didn't know how to answer for a while, she carefully observed Qin Ke's determined expression, and asked softly for a long time: "You, do you really think I'm inferior?"

Qin Ke shook his head and said, "Back then, I was hungry and fell on the side of the road, not even as good as a wild dog, if it wasn't for Master picking me up, I would have died a long time ago......"

Ning Xin bit her lip, her eyes kept changing, and finally she seemed to have secretly made up her mind, and nodded slightly towards Qin Ke.

"You agreed?" Qin Ke was overjoyed and called softly: "Sister?"

"Yes, brother. Ning Xin felt a surge of warmth, a few tears in her eyes, and slowly stroked Qin Ke's cheek, "I have a younger brother again." ”

At this time, Gao Yishui listened to the calls of the two, and suddenly laughed: "I still think that the two of you are about to dry firewood...... As a result, after such a while, my sister and brother were called, what kind of song is this?"

Ning Xin listened to Gao Yishui's words, lowered her head and said cowardly: "Let this son laugh, if the son thinks it's inappropriate, then I ......"

Qin Ke glared at Gao Yishui and said, "I recognize my sister and take care of your." ”

Gao Yishui patted Qin Ke's shoulder, looked at Ning Xin again, and said with a smile: "Girl, don't think too much, I'm not from this kid's family, and I can't care about his stinky problem of liking to recognize relatives everywhere." However, since this guy recognized his relatives in a few words...... It's just right, there should be a big gift later, and when the time comes, I will borrow flowers to offer Buddha, and the girl will be able to follow suit. ”

Qin Ke looked at him blankly, and said suspiciously: "What do you want to do, you quickly say." ”

"You'll find out in a moment. Gao Yishui sat back on the chair with a smile, the woman in the goose yellow shirt had obviously drunk a little too much, her face was flushed, her body was soft and boneless, and she was drowsy, and the other woman was not much better than her, the two were like two wilted flowers, almost collapsed together.

And Gao Yishui drank the two people, the expression on his face became serious, and he began to sit on the chair alone and pour himself a drink, he drank a lot of alcohol, and he didn't even see anything unusual when he drank three jars of wine, stretched out his chopsticks to pick up the vegetables as smoothly as ever, and spoke more and more clearly.

After a while, there was a knock at the door.

Gao Yishui glanced at Qin Ke and said softly, "Come in." ”

The door slowly opened, showing the figure of the old bustard, she had changed into that flattering smile again, and said in a soft tone: "Childe, is Lan Yuxuan's hospitality still satisfied?"

She squinted at the two women lying on the ground and fell asleep, and secretly cursed: "Useless things." ”

Qin Ke nodded and replied honestly: "It's good, it's all good." ”

The old bustard smiled sweetly, clapped his hands and said, "That's good." ”

With a shake of his body, the old bustard stood aside and let a man behind him into the room, who was holding a tray in his hand, covered with bright red satin, and also flattering, and his eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile.

"The two sons came to our Lan Yuxuan, in addition to this entertainment, our boss also specially prepared a thin gift for the two sons......" The old bustard covered the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, and unveiled the red satin with a smile.

Gao Yishui's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he had guessed what was under the red silk, but Qin Ke was ignorant, standing up and raising his eyes to look.

"Huh......" Qin Ke let out a low snort, subconsciously blocked his eyes with his hand, and under the red cloth, pieces of gold cakes were neatly stacked into a tower, shining dazzling in the candlelight.

Qin Ke never imagined that the small golden artifacts piled up together could radiate such a light that people dare not look at directly, like a round of scorching sun hanging high in the sky at noon.
