Lan'er said angrily while wiping her tears, "Yes, how can you bully people like this?"
"My condolences to you, old man. We must take good care of ourselves for Jiao'er's sake." Mu Qianyu comforted her.
"It's only because of this child that we two old bones can survive until now, but how long can we survive?" The old man shook his head and said: "Look at me, why are you talking so much? Guys, drink water.
Drink water."
Mu Qianyu picked up the thick bowl and took a sip, feeling extremely sad. She had never thought about doing anything for the people before, she only wanted to be promoted quickly and save her own life.
After coming here and listening to what the old man said, she realized that she was now responsible for the livelihood of the entire Anping Mansion and had to do far more than she had prepared in her heart.
When I was thinking about it, I heard footsteps, and the old woman and Jiaoer came in carrying dry food and side dishes.
"There is nothing delicious in the countryside. If you don't mind, let's eat some to fill our bellies." The old woman said and put a plate of black and yellow dry food on the table.
Jiao'er brought over two plates of stir-fried vegetables of unknown origin, which seemed to have almost no oil.
Mu Qianyu picked up the dry food and asked, "Is this a black-faced steamed bun? I've always wanted to try it. Thank you so much, aunt and sister."
Jiao'er smiled shyly when she heard this and stood aside with her head lowered.
Nannan had never seen this kind of food since she was a child, but she still ate it in order not to make the family think too much.
Then came Xiao Ruo and Lan'er.
The only one who remained motionless was Di Yin, who was standing behind Mu Qianyu.
"This little brother, please have one too." The old woman gave in and said, "The young man is so handsome. My old woman has never seen such a handsome child."
Di Yin still stood there with a sullen face, not looking at the old woman or speaking.
The old woman felt a little embarrassed for a moment.
"Auntie, don't be offended. This child is born not to talk. No matter how much discipline he has at home, it's useless. If he doesn't eat, you don't have to worry about him." Mu Qianyu quickly added.
The old woman nodded and said: "You are young, don't be talkative, talk more and laugh more, you will look good."
Di Yin still didn't answer.
"Auntie, you are absolutely right. I will enlighten him like this at home, and I will continue to enlighten him when I go back." Mu Qianyu nodded in agreement.
Di Yin looked at the woman in front of him with some doubts in his eyes. How could this woman lie as well as tell the truth?
While eating, Mu Qianyu observed that the little girl swallowed her saliva several times. Looking at her thin body and sallow complexion, she thought she was suffering from malnutrition caused by not having enough to eat all the time.
I guess I don’t have enough food rations at home, so I took out so much this time, and I don’t know how I will live in the future.
"We also brought some food, but it's cold. Let's eat it together." Mu Qianyu looked at Lan'er.
Among the group of people, only Lan'er had a small bundle. There were a lot of snacks and cakes in the bundle, and she took them out at this moment.
"I've almost eaten. You and your sister can eat some." Mu Qianyu said and stood up from the table.
Because this table is very small, it can only seat five people at most.
Lan'er and Xiao Ruohe gave up their seats very sensibly. Only Nannan still sat there and greeted: "Grandpa and grandma, I will eat with you."
When the old man and the old woman saw their daughter, their faces were full of love, and even Jiaoer looked at her a few more times.
"Jiao'er, you can eat." The old woman said to Mu Qianyu, "Girl, you girls can rest in Jiao'er's room. This young man will sleep with us."
Di Yin looked cold and still said nothing.
Before Mu Qianyu could figure out how to deal with this matter, he heard footsteps and laughter coming from outside.
"We must get the old Li family's granddaughter tonight. She is fifteen and not too young."
"Boss is right. Boss, you come first, and then we will come again. We will have a lot of fun tonight."
"Ha ha ha ha."
The sounds outside the hospital mixed with drunken voices were getting closer and closer.
The three old and weak members of the family all changed their expressions, and the old man immediately said: "We are here to find Jiao'er again. Jiao'er, run out of the back window and go up the mountain. I won't come back until I find you."
"Grandma." The little girl burst into tears.
"Let's go quickly." The old man took Jiaoer towards the back window.
Mu Qianyu had heard the sound in the backyard and said, "Don't be afraid, old man, we are here."
However, the old man was so frightened that he could not listen to Mu Qianyu's words. At this time, he had already opened the rear window.
But just as the little girl walked to the window, a young man rushed in through the window, and the grandfather and grandson screamed in fright.
"Hey, you guys ran away like this last time. Do you want to run away again this time?" The man said and approached the girl step by step.
Jiao'er was so frightened that she couldn't even cry. The old man stood in front of her and begged: "Please don't do this. Jiao'er is only fifteen years old, she is still a child."
"Fifteen is the age to be a mother, get out of here." The man stretched out his hand to pull the old man.
Mu Qianyu gave Xiao Ruo a wink.
Xiao Ruo also got angry. After receiving Mu Qianyu's order, he quickly flashed in front of the old man and grabbed the man's fallen wrist.
The man was drunk and hazy. He had not noticed that there were so many people in the room before. At this moment, he was also stunned from surprise: "You are a good-looking little girl. Let...ah..."
The next moment, the man screamed and flew out of the window.
The old man's family of three were even more frightened. This little girl looked to be about the same age as Jiao'er. How could she be so strong?
"Bang!"
The next moment, the door was kicked open, the door panel hit the ground, and the three people in the front yard stepped on the door panel and walked in.
The family of three was huddled in the back, too frightened to say a word.
"What's the matter, are you here to fight against injustice?" the young man at the head said coldly, looking at it a little stunned. It was not that he had never seen a monk who came to practice, but he had never seen such a good-looking one.
Mu Qianyu walked from the side to the center of the room and sat down, facing the three people, and said calmly: "Do you know what it is to break into a private house late at night?"
The three people looked at each other, and then they all laughed.
"The little girl actually talked to us about the King's Dharma. Tell you, we are the King's Dharma in this Anping Mansion." The leader said with confidence.
"I just like to deal with tough-talking people like you. Tell me, who are you?" Mu Qianyu smiled instead of angry, with a hint of joking in his eyes.
"I know you are monks, but no matter what you are capable of, there is really nothing you can do to us." The leader sneered and said: "We are the government servants of Anping Mansion. Does Mr. Tongzhi know? That is my uncle.
.”
"Yamen?" Mu Qianyu's eyes darkened slightly.
"Exactly, if you dare to touch us, you have violated the laws of the Daxuan Dynasty. No matter how powerful you are, how dare you trample on the laws?!"
