Traveling through the daily life of raising a family in ancient times

Chapter 99

Song Yeqing rubbed between her eyebrows with her fingers, feeling a little distressed, but she still pulled her up.

Why do people here kneel at every turn?

But even so, she still doesn't intend to change her decision: "I'm leaving."

If there are outsiders, many things in her space cannot be covered up.

does it worth?not worth it.

Staring closely at her leaving back, the girl turned her head to look at the group of people next to her.

She lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment, then picked up the clothes on the ground and chased them into the woods.

If he stays, that man will not let him go.

To live, to live.she told herself so.

She's not smart, but the other party finally said I'm leaving instead of following, maybe...

Take a gamble.

Song Yeqing heard the footsteps behind her, sighed silently, but said nothing, just walked back to the camp step by step.

"Why have you been here for so long?" He Yanxin had already finished his medicine, and was a little anxious waiting for her.

Now he especially misses modern communication technology, a problem that can be solved with a phone call.

"Something happened." Song Yeqing kept things simple.

"Who?" He Yanxin shouted vigilantly when he noticed the black figure coming out of the forest behind him.

The girl stopped, pinching the clothes in her hands, a little afraid to come over.

Song Yeqing went to play with the brothers on her own.

He Yanxin looked at her and then at the people over there.

No, if it was a bad person, Song Yeqing should have discovered him a long time ago, and she wouldn't say nothing at this time.

what is this?
Finally, several people sat down around the campfire.

The girl shrank beside Song Yeqing, unwilling to get close to He Yanxin.Maybe it was that man who cast a shadow over her.

"Uh... Don't worry, I won't do anything to you. Well, what's your name?"

He Yanxin had roughly understood what happened just now, seeing that Song Yeqing had no intention of asking, he still opened his mouth cautiously.

The girl didn't answer him, she huddled into a ball and stared timidly at Song Yeqing, feeling very uncertain.

Could she be wrong?The other party actually didn't want to follow him back.

He was speechless for a while, and the surrounding fell into silence.

And Song Yeqing was feeling annoyed right now.

Soft-hearted what really is!How can their unusual things be concealed?
Forget it, for a child who has just experienced that kind of shock, I shouldn't have treated her like this.

And if you keep people with that group of people, it won't end well.

He hurt the man himself, he didn't dare to take revenge, he would only pour his hatred on the girl.

"I'm asking about your name." Song Yeqing's tone was gentle, obviously he had already figured it out.

Don't care about her, hide it if you can.Even if the other party is suspicious, what else can a girl of eleven or twelve do?

"My name is Zhou Jichuan." Seeing her asking, the girl finally breathed a sigh of relief, and replied with a bit of joy in her tone.

"Which words, can you write?" Song Yeqing asked again.Why doesn't it sound like a girl's name?
The two brothers lay on her lap and looked at the newcomer curiously.

"I will." Zhou Jichuan picked up the branch and wrote it on the ground skillfully.

"The eyes are as far as thousands of miles away, and the mountains and rivers are so strong." Looking at the writing on the ground, Song Yeqing raised his eyebrows and read out a poem.

It seems that the person who named her is a cultured person, and has high hopes for her.

After Zhou Jichuan heard it, he raised his head suddenly, his eyes were slightly red.

"When my dad taught me how to write my name, he read this poem first."

Perhaps it was because he was eager to let the other party keep her, Zhou Jichuan began to tell his own experience.

Zhou's father was actually a scholar, but after failing several times, he gave up the imperial examination and found a clerical job in the county, writing pleadings for others.

The family of three also moved to the county seat. Although they hadn't completely separated from the Zhou family in the town, they had been separated without much involvement.

Only a few taels of silver are given to the family every year, and the family is exempted from land tax.

Unfortunately, when Zhou Jichuan was 11 years old, Zhou's father died of a sudden illness.

Fortunately, they have left a lot of property over the years, but the orphans and widows will only be bullied if they stay outside, so Zhou's mother took Zhou Jichuan back to Zhou's house.

Zhou's mother is not a weak and ignorant woman. She holds money tightly in her hands so that her children can continue to study.

But how can a woman and her youngest son overwhelm filial piety and family?
In less than a year, Grandma Zhou managed to take out the money in her hand, and Zhou Jichuan lost Shunian.

With no money and the restoration of land tax, the mother and son's life in Zhou's family became more and more difficult.

It is common for Zhou's mother to do laundry at home in the cold winter months, while Zhou Jichuan has learned to do housework such as farming, chopping firewood and feeding chickens in a short period of time.

Fortunately, Zhou's mother has the name of a talented lady, and he is the only heir of Zhou's father, so the family didn't do too much, and brought two people with them when they fled.

Mother Zhou died on the road.

When she gave birth, Ben fell to the root of the disease. Not only could she never conceive again, but her health was also very poor.

Perhaps this is why Grandma Zhou always dislikes her and often uses words to sarcasm her.

Her body took another blow when Zhou's father died.Zhou Jichuan could often see his mother crying in the middle of the night and coughing weakly on weekdays.

Before fleeing, she had already started coughing up blood, but she gritted her teeth and followed along on the road just for the sake of her son.

But after all, he still didn't make it through, and just buried it hastily halfway.

Hear this.

"Wait, you're a boy?" Song Yeqing was confused.

Zhou Jichuan grabbed the hem of his clothes, feeling a little embarrassed. "Yes... yes, I'm a boy." What's wrong?
Song Yeqing took a closer look at his face.It was found that although it was handsome, the skeletal outline was indeed that of a boy.

Well, it was her preconceived idea that the one being bullied should be a girl.The clothes on her body belonged to Mrs. Song again.

Who made the ancients have long hair regardless of men and women, plus the other party is handsome and at an age where men and women are indistinguishable.

No wonder I was so blind this time.

Zhou Jichuan also understood that she had misunderstood before.

So it was extremely difficult to say: "That man always leaned towards me before, I thought of my father but... didn't notice..."

That man's age was indeed about the same as the deceased Zhou's father.

"I don't know, we are all men, why is this..."

After all, he is still young and innocent, and he doesn't know that there is such a thing as the addiction to broken sleeves in the world.

Seeing a man who looked like an elder taking care of him, he just thought he was really pitiful for him.

It wasn't until he was called out from the crowd by the other party that he walked towards the haystack and felt that something was wrong, and he wanted to run but was held back.

He yelled a few times, hoping that his relatives over there could save him, but no one came, only Song Yeqing was called.

"This bastard!" He Yanxin cursed after hearing this. "Where is the person!?"

He stood up, with a hand hanging on his chest, but his face looked like he wanted to settle accounts.

"It's okay, his hand is useless." Song Yeqing said silently.

At that time, she was optimistic about the position before making the move.

If it is not treated in time, the opponent's right hand will be completely useless.
