Start into the abyss

Chapter 6 6. No Choice (Fourth)

County Northern Song family?

Baishan had heard the name before, and it seemed that the family moved here from the north at the beginning of this year. There were not many people when they came, but they were traveling in the snow with a lot of carriages.

At that time, the county magistrate went out to greet him in person, which is enough to show that the background of the Song family is not simple.

But what the Song family does, Bai Shan doesn't know, and he has nothing to do with this family, after all, one is a mud leg and the other is an old man.

The short-lived daughter of the head of the Song family?
Bai Shan thought for a while, but he had never heard of it, and had no impression of it.

He followed Bai Miaochan across the Green Willow Bridge, and suddenly thought of something, so he paused.

Bai Miaochan was like a roundworm in his heart, softly said: "Why, do you want to be the son-in-law too?"

Bai Shan said: "I want to go, but they still can't pick me.

But if it does happen, I'm willing too.

What the Song family wants is to find a husband for the girl, to accompany the girl on the last journey, and when the girl dies, it doesn't matter to me that she is not allowed to marry the second wife.

But if my siblings can live a good life, that's fine. "

At the same time, I also have the resources for cultivation.

He silently added another sentence in his heart.

Bai Miaochan patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said: "Don't underestimate yourself, although you look boring, you are very delicate, and if you squeeze your fists, you can bulge your muscles, some girls like you.

How about you try it?The girls might fall in love with you. "

Bai Shan smiled and said, "It's strange."

The conversation between the two is just a daily joke.

Between talking and laughing, the time seemed to be shortened, and soon, the siblings came to the front of Hongwa Lane in the west of the county.

Bai Miaochan looked at the first house at the entrance of the alley, it was still early, so the candles in the house were still on.

"You wait for me under this tree."

"Well, you go."

Bai Shan responded, leaning on the tree with his hands behind his back, facing the sky.

Bai Miaochan's voice suddenly came from not far away, "The tree is very damp, don't touch it."

Bai Shan smiled and straightened up again.

In the distance, Bai Miaochan stood under the moon and waved to him again, then turned around and ran happily to the old woman's house.

Bai Shan watched his elder sister being welcomed into the door by an old woman, so he looked away, and waited quietly.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Bai Shan couldn't help thinking: If Sister Miao Miao succeeds, the crisis will be resolved.

But what if it doesn't work?

He clenched his fists.

A speck of dust casually sprinkled by the powerful falls on ordinary people, and it is unbearable.

This is the way of the world.

After half an hour, the door in the distance seemed to open, Bai Miaochan supported the old woman's hand, the two of them walked out of the room while laughing and talking about something.

Bai Shan breathed a sigh of relief, judging by the atmosphere, it should be done, right?

He didn't come forward either, and continued to wait.

Bai Miaochan went out of the yard, and the old woman closed the door.

The girl walked quickly and came to the boy's side, showing a bit of dejection.

Bai Shan was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Didn't it work?"

Bai Miaochan loosened her five fingers, revealing the small gourd she was holding inside. Obviously the things hadn't been sent out, she pursed her lips and said, "It's not that it didn't work, it's just that the old lady said she would think about it."

Bai Shan asked: "How did you tell her?"

Bai Miaochan said: "We chatted very happily at the beginning, and then when we talked about adopting our stepmother, the old woman seemed to understand something and asked me what trouble I caused. I said that the Lu family wanted to buy me, and you and the servants of the Lu family had an affair. There was a little dispute, and they stopped them from coming in to snatch people.

The old lady understood what I said, but she said she had to think about it again and give me an answer in two days. "

Bai Shan was stunned for a moment, and said: "No, it will be too late in two days."

Bai Miaochan's pretty face showed anxiety, and she said: "Oh, I know, but I think the old lady doesn't want to hurt her son, or she wants to communicate with her son first, it's also possible Original."

Bai Shan said: "Bai Miaochan, I understand what you said. But we can't wait for two days. At the latest tomorrow morning, if the Lu family doesn't wait for the swordsman to return, they must come and make trouble. If we run into the Lu family Then, it's all over."

Bai Miaochan said: "Okay, okay, I'll go beg her."

Saying that, the girl thought about it again.

Who hasn't done this kind of thing in the beggar's den?Don't talk about begging, even begging, what's wrong?

It's just that she was afraid that the old woman would see something wrong and refuse directly, so she didn't ask anxiously, but just pretended to be worried.

The girl thought for a while, and then ran into the old woman's house with a smile on her face.

After a while, she returned again.

Bai Shan asked: "How is it?"

Bai Miaochan said: "The old woman is a good person, but she can't make her own decision. She will give us an answer tomorrow night at the earliest. I think she should have a special contact with Captain Zhao, such as Feige. But tomorrow night should have already It is the shortest time required for her to complete a communication with Captain Zhao."

Bai Shan fell silent.

Bai Miaochan also sighed.

Both of them hesitated.

But this matter has been filled with many uncertain factors.

For example, will Zhao Huaiyue promise his mother to adopt a foster daughter?

If they agree, then the two of them will work hard and find a way to get through the daytime tomorrow.

But if they don't agree, then by this time tomorrow night, it will be a dead end for the two of them, and there will be no turning point.

But if they leave Taohua County regardless of the old woman, the bandits and monsters along the way will make them almost die. Even if they do go to other counties, they will most likely face wanted arrest, and the rest of their lives will be restless.

This is a fork in the fog, and every road is a gamble, but if you lose the gamble, you have nothing.

Bai Shan suddenly said: "I'm going to the Song family."

Bai Miaochan raised her head in surprise: "Huh?"

Bai Shan said: "Didn't you say that I have hope?

If there is, then I have to try it.
As long as he is selected tonight, the crisis will be resolved, and the old lady here will not let go.

If not selected, we fled Taohua County overnight.

I will never place my hope on others. "

Bai Miaochan's pretty face was stunned when she heard the words, and then said softly: "Okay, okay, after all, you are the man of the family, this matter is up to you."

After saying that, she jumped away again, stood far away, looked at Baishan carefully, then moved closer, tiptoed to brush his hair, then put her elbow on her chin and said: "He is still quite handsome, but he lacks a suit of clothes.

uh. you wait. "

Saying that, she turned around again, ran into the old woman's house, and returned not long after. This time, she returned with a white-bottomed and deep-collared scholar's suit, a blue-and-black square scarf, and a pair of cyan boots. She handed it over and said: "Baishan, change it quickly. The old lady lent it to me. It was worn by her son in the past. You happen to be writing letters for others, and you have a delicate face. It's just right to wear a scholar's uniform."

Seeing that she really took out the clothes, Bai Shan knew in his heart that the old woman might treat Sister Miao Miao sincerely. If it was fine, but now, the old woman knew that Bai Miaochan had provoked the Lu family, but she was still willing to borrow the clothes. , instead of avoiding it for fear of being too late, this is already the truth.

Baishan didn't care too much, just undressed and changed.

The two have been together for a long time, so there is no need to avoid this suspicion.

After changing it, Bai Miaochan dressed him up for a while, combed his hair, and took out the scholar's scarf for him to put on.

After a while of fuss, it was finally all right.

Bai Miaochan looked at him with her chin up, nodded and said with a smile, "He really looks like a champion."

Bai Shan also laughed and said, "I'm afraid that girl may not recognize the champion."

The two talked and laughed, but their hearts were heavy.

They all know that if it fails, then there will be an endless journey of escape.
