Chapter 10 [Departure]
The few people in the yard were relatively speechless, thinking about their own thoughts, and there were only low cry of insects left around them.
Suddenly, everyone raised their heads and looked at each other, with a little confused in their eyes.
"Squeak~"
The gate of the courtyard was not locked and was gently pushed open by a small hand.
A small head quietly penetrated from outside the small crack in the door, and suddenly met a group of eyes, as if frightened, and suddenly shrank back.
Yun Bingqing had already recognized this time. The little head that was poking in seemed to be a little girl rescued during the day.
After a while, the little girl leaned in again, but this time she saw a few people, she seemed not as panicked as before. She quickly flashed in and closed the yard gate.
Yun Bingqing saw with sharp eyes that the girl was carrying a basket in her hand, with a few thick yams and radishes inside.
Huang Mengli jumped down from the roof of her room, jumped to the girl, and asked with a smile: "What's wrong with little sister?"
The little girl was startled by Huang Mengli, and her little feet took a few steps back, and her butt fell to the ground.
"What are you afraid of me? I won't eat you..." Huang Mengli said with some amusement.
"Sister...Sister, I...I want to get some...Thank you for food." The little girl replied stammeringly.
"Speaking of this, I'm really hungry. The owner of this family is also very stingy. When I moved away, I wish I could remove the door and walls!" Huang Mengli complained, then pulled up the little girl in front of me, took the yam from her hand, and looked her up and down.
The little girl had red lips and white teeth, a round face flushed, with a little cute baby fat. After Huang Mengli looked at her for a moment, her big eyes were full of shyness.
"ah!"
The little girl suddenly screamed. It turned out that Huang Mengli was not only satisfied with watching, but started to touch her. The little girl was so shocked that she suddenly took two steps back.
"What are you afraid of? I see your bones are so clear that I asked me to touch your bones. I can't say you are still a martial arts master." Huang Mengli teased and said, "How old are you?"
"My name is Huang Xiaoya. I'm eight years old. Miss. Can I really practice martial arts?" The little girl became a little excited when she heard Huang Mengli say this, and even started to speak a lot more quickly.
"Ha! Your surname is Huang? Are you so destined to do it? Don't move, let me touch it!" Huang Mengli threw the basket in her hand to Yun Bingqing, walked forward, and started to attack him again.
Yun Bingqing handed the basket in his hand to Mo Xiaoli on the side, pointed at the yam and asked, "How do you take this?"
"Eat raw and cooked foods. If there is firewood in the kitchen, you can roast it." Mo Xiaoli brought a bucket of water from the well, took out a radish, washed the soil on it, and did not even peel the skin. He shook the water and started gnawing it.
Yun Bingqing looked speechlessly at Mo Xiaoli, who was cold and expressionless, sitting on the steps, gnawing on the radish calmly, for some reason, without any incongruity.
"Is it so delicious?" Looking at Mo Xiaoli's eating with relish, Yun Bingqing inexplicably took the washed radish from Zhuang Yanqiao and ate it.
"Pooh!"
After chewing it in his mouth for a few times, it was spicy and spicy. The bright taste made Yun Bingqing's beautiful facial features wrinkle, and he immediately spit it out with a bitter face.
"Ph! Ph!"
"What does this taste like? Why is it different from the crystal cellar radish I used to eat?" At this time, listening to Mo Xiaoli's expressionless and constantly chewing crisp giggles, Yun Bingqing suddenly seemed to have seen a ghost.
"It's quite sweet?" Mo Xiaoli took Yun Bingqing's radish and ate it, and said casually.
"I……"
Yun Bingqing was speechless
"Hey??This little girl is really a genius!"
On the other hand, Huang Mengli, who had finished touching her bones, said in disbelief.
She was originally an unintentional act, but she just wanted to tease Huang Xiaoya in front of her, but she didn't expect that she would really find a rough jade. The girl in front of her seemed to be born for their Peach Blossom Island martial arts.
"oh?"
Zhuang Yanqiao also came here as he heard this, looking back and forth at the young girl in front of him, and then stroking her pulse again.
"I didn't see any strangeness? Wait... the breath is thick and straight, and there is a slight mania in the pulse?"
Zhuang Yanqiao lost another trace of internal strength and went in.
"The meridians are burning and the qi and blood are strong. As a daughter, I am actually born with yang meridians?" Even Zhuang Yanqiao was a little surprised this time.
Huang Mengli was immediately proud when she heard this: "Yes? Yes? This little girl really has a fate with me. Her life should not be lost, otherwise she would die prematurely because of the irregular yin and yang and excessive virtual fire."
When Huang Xiaoya heard Huang Mengli say this, her little face turned pale and her eyes suddenly turned red. She knelt down without saying a word, "bang bang bang bang" and kowtowed continuously.
"Please help me, please... please help me!"
"Hey? What are you doing? Get up quickly!" Huang Mengli was also startled, and hurriedly helped the little girl up, and looked at her carefully: "You are quite smart. Who are there in the family? Are you still literate?"
"Back... Go back... Go back to the master, Xiao Ya has been following her mother since she was a child and has learned to write. My father today... because of resisting the horse thief... I am now the only one left in the family. Because of today's affairs, my mother is still sick. These... these foods were also brought by my mother to Xiao Ya." Huang Xiao Ya wiped her tears and said choked: "Xiao Ya has been older than her usual age since she was a child. She can also do laundry and cook. I hope... I hope the master can take them in. Xiao Ya is willing to make a cow and a horse!"
Speaking of this, Huang Xiaoya burst into tears.
"These are all your mother asked you to say." Huang Mengli gently stroked Huang Xiaoya's head and asked with distress.
When Huang Xiaoya heard this, she felt like she was electrocuted. She suddenly knelt down again and she burst into tears. She kowtowed heavily, but she didn't say a word, but just bit her lips tightly and her body kept trembling.
"You see, I look no more than two years older than you, why do you want to worship me instead of them?" Huang Mengli stopped Huang Xiaoya and continued to kowtow. Looking at the traces of blood and tears on the ground, she suddenly said.
Huang Xiaoya did not answer, but just shook her head desperately.
When she thought of her mother's beating and scolding on the bed, Huang Xiaoya couldn't help but whimper.
"If you follow a few noble people, you will feel at ease in the village for your mother. When you return from school, you will be able to take you to enjoy your mother."
"Mom! Xiao Ya doesn't go anywhere. Xiao Ya wants to take care of her mother. Xiao Ya wants to stay by her side. Xiao Ya doesn't go anywhere. Mom, don't drive me away..." Huang Xiao Ya cried in front of the sickbed.
She was precocious and knew that her mother was greatly humiliated today, and her father was killed by the thief. With her mother's nature, if she left, her mother would definitely seek a short-sighted view.
"Bang!"
Huang Xiaoya was slapped hard.
"If you don't go today, I will die in front of you! Cough cough cough!"
"You are born with hidden diseases. Your father has been seeking medical treatment for you for many years. Now if you can get the kind-hearted nobles intake, you will have hope of living. For your mother, you are the only daughter. Do you still have to watch for your mother who is dragging her sickbed to seek medical treatment for you??"
Listening to her mother's crying at the top of her lungs, Huang Xiaoya pounced on her mother's quilt and cried bitterly!
"Mom!"
Huang Xiaoya cried so hard that she was about to fall into a coma.
"You answered whether you would agree!"
Huang Xiaoya looked at her mother taking out a pair of scissors from somewhere and pressing her throat, and she was so scared that she was so scared!
Tears as big as beans kept slipping from their eyes. Huang Xiaoya stood up and wiped away the tears from her face with her sleeves, but wiped them dry, and another piece of them was wet.
"Xiao Ya promised! Xiao Ya promised mother!"
She had been sensible since childhood and could only force herself to grit her teeth, choking the whimper in her throat, and twitching violently all over her body.
"Little girl promised her mother!"
