Brave the world of self-cultivation with the aura of Jack Su

Chapter 97 - In the Illusion - The Initial Beauty

They are not sisters of the same father and mother, but vagrants living in Xiaoliu Village.

The grandfather in the village took in many children like her.

After her grandfather passed away, only sister Chu Jing lived with her.

In the morning, sister Chu Jing said she was going to sell eggs in the town, but she hasn't come back yet.

Seeing that it will rain heavily, the mountain road will become unsafe.

Liu Piaopiao, who looked like a child, looked up at the dark clouds in the sky, her eyes filled with worry.

Xiaoliu Village is located in a remote place, and it takes almost a whole day to go back and forth to the town.

No matter how fast my sister's footsteps are, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get home on time.

The house where the two sisters lived was almost impoverished, and the emptiness carried a sense of desolation.

Liu Piaopiao searched in the house for a long time, and found the worn coir raincoat left by the old man a long time ago.

Wearing a worn coir raincoat, she put a short fire bag into her bosom, and walked out of the dilapidated thatched cottage.

The clouds in the sky weighed lower, with a tendency to crush everything.

Occasionally there are two drops of water, unable to bear the pressure, choose to rush to the ground.

The water droplets hit the ground and made a "pop" sound.

Feiran had just finished work with his brothers and was about to go home when he saw little Liu Piaopiao, wearing a coir raincoat, about to go out.

"Piao Piao, it's going to rain heavily, where are you going?"

He is also a waif, and lived with a little girl for a while before.

Later, when I grew up, I left my grandfather's yard, went out to set up my own business, and lived by handicrafts.

Even though we are separated, the love we used to live together is still there.

They still contact each other occasionally, and he will also take care of the sisters Chu Jing and Liu Piaopiao.

Liu Piaopiao heard someone shouting and stopped.

Seeing Feiran, he said: "My sister went to the market this morning, and she hasn't come back yet. I'm a little worried and want to go find her."

She is really weak by herself, if she can ask Brother Fei for help, it should be better.

Feiran said a few words to the coworker beside him, then walked towards the little girl.

"Wait for me, you're too young, it's not safe to go by yourself, what if you meet a trafficker, I'll take you with me."

He took Liu Piaopiao's hand, frowned and said, "You are only wearing a coir raincoat, what will your sister do later, you and I can go get an umbrella again."

Liu Piaopiao felt that what he said made sense, so she went with him.

It's just that in this short period of time, the raindrops from the sky are falling more intensively, and the originally soft ground has become muddy.

Liu Piaopiao walked in the mud with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and soon began to pant and her legs were sore.

She looked at Fei Ran who was walking ahead, and tried her best to trot to catch up with him, trying to keep at the same speed as him.

It didn't take long before she was left behind again.

The rain was falling so fast that Liu Piaopiao didn't dare to raise his head, and he couldn't talk for fear that the rain would get into his mouth.

Fei Ran was careless and pulled people away, only to realize that children were even worse.

"Why don't you call me if you can't keep up? If I lose you, I won't be able to explain to your sister." He sighed and said, "Why don't I carry you? You are walking too slowly, what are we doing?" Only then can we welcome your sister."

Liu Piaopiao felt a little wronged in her heart, she didn't do it on purpose, and her legs weren't that long either.

But thinking that the young man in front of her had already helped a lot, she swallowed the grievance in her heart.

It's raining so much now, and the mountain roads are prone to landslides. It's not the time for her to feel wronged. It's more important to find her sister now.

Fei Ran finally carried the child on his back, letting her hold the umbrella in her hand.

One big and one small, one tall and one short, walked on the muddy and sticky mountain road.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, but in the afternoon, the sky was completely dark.

The rain curtain is like a thick bead curtain, hanging from the sky to the ground.

The colors of the mountains and trees were all covered, and everything became hazy and dim.

The rain beat hard on leaves, blades of grass, umbrellas, everything that kept it from running to the ground.

There was a loud crackling sound, as if soybeans were falling from the sky to the ground.

Liu Piaopiao lay on Feiran's back, staring at the umbrella tightly held in her hand, feeling a little worried in her heart.

The sound of the rain hitting the umbrella was so loud that she was really afraid that the umbrella would be broken suddenly.

Oil-paper umbrellas cost a lot of money, and it would be a pity if they broke.

She was lying on the young man's back, and she didn't take up any rain on her body.

With a flick of the foot, the mud on the sandals was thrown off.

"Don't move around, be careful not to fall to the ground, your butt will be covered with mud." Fei Ran lifted the little girl on his back up, warning her.

Some of the rain hit his arms, and because of the rush, he also sweated a lot, and now he was wet and slippery.

If one misses, the little girl behind will fall to the ground.

Liu Piaopiao was obedient, she stopped moving, and obediently lay on the young man's shoulder.

It was raining heavily, there was no one on the mountain, and there was only a single sound of rain around.

Bored, the child started talking to the young man who was carrying her on his back.

"Brother Fei, do you like my sister?" She asked aloud.

Every time she goes out with her sister, she always meets Brother Fei.

She felt that Brother Fei liked her sister.

Feiran's face flushed, and he said harshly to the child on his back: "You are a bigger kid, you know what you like."

Liu Piaopiao wrinkled her nose.

Others think she is small, but she feels that she is not small at all.

She understands all the things in ordinary life.

"I'm not young anymore, I can see many things at a glance." She said.

"Oh? What can you tell, tell me?" Fei Ran asked.

He didn't really want to ask anything, he just thought the child was fun and wanted to chat with her more.

Of course, it would be even better if I could ask something useful...

Thinking of Chu Jing, Fei Ran blushed again.

Liu Piaopiao glanced at the side face of the young man with her back turned away, and said faintly: "I can see that every time you go to and from work, you always pass by my door at some point, either when I go to school in the morning, or when I go to school in the evening. After school, I am so young, you must not be interested in me, then you must be interested in my sister."

Feiran's soles slipped, even Liu Piaopiao on his back was shocked.

The umbrella in her hand was not stable, and the wind blew it over and fell to the ground.

Fei Ran frantically picked up the umbrella, which was inevitably covered with mud.

A lot of water was blown on his body, especially on his trousers, but fortunately he was carrying Liu Piaopiao in a coir raincoat on his back, and the position of his back was protected from most of the rain.

"You're a child, what are you guessing? I go to and from work normally, it's just a coincidence." Feiran frowned and said to the child behind him: "It's fine to say this in front of me, but don't say it in front of others, you know? ? You will make others criticize your sister, and it will be bad for her reputation in the village."

Liu Piaopiao clenched the oil-paper umbrella again, stared at the mud on it, and sighed a little.

"This man, he's really a dead duck with a stubborn mouth. He's already like this, and he insists on duplicity."

Of course, this is not the only thing that can make her judge like this.

During the twelfth lunar month of winter, Feige would always support their family with some bacon and new cotton.

Her sister also cooked some food and gave it away in return. When the two of them talked face to face, they didn't dare to look at each other.

Everyone thinks she is small, and they don't shy away from her. She sees things clearly.

But among the same group of waifs, only Feige is the most nostalgic and humane.

So she felt that if it was Brother Fei, she would be very supportive.

Hearing the exclamation of the child behind him, Feiran only felt it was funny.

"Is this what your master entrusted to you? You can even talk like a dead duck, duplicity, such words?"

He does have a little liking for Xiao Jing, but he still doesn't know what he thinks about her.

If it becomes clearer in the future, he will also employ three media and six recruits, and propose marriage in the most formal way.

Xiaoliu Village is a big place with strict rules. Xiaojing and Piao Piao live together, which is very hard work in itself.

If there is any bad message, every family will know, and she will become a topic of conversation after dinner.

He won't let the girl he likes be ashamed because of him.

Liu Piaopiao looked at the mountain road ahead, and whispered: "Are these words difficult? Don't always treat me like a three-year-old child, okay? Saying an idiom will surprise you."

"Yes, yes, I can't treat you as a three-year-old child, because you are almost seven years old, and you are about to become a big child..."

Liu Piaopiao frowned and frowned again.

She felt like she was being made fun of.

One big and one small walked on the mountain for a long time, but they never met the person they wanted to meet.

Waves of worry arose in the hearts of both of them.

When it was completely dark, Feiran had to slow down his pace.

Liu Piaopiao also hugged the young man's neck tightly, worried that he would be thrown away.

The road on the mountain has become extremely difficult to walk, and landslides have even appeared in some places.

Just when the two were full of anxiety, they vaguely heard the woman's muttering.

Liu Piaopiao was the first to react, and tentatively called out: "Sister? Is that you?"

Hearing her voice, the person on the other side responded: "Piao Piao? Why are you out in this weather?"

Liu Piaopiao heard a familiar voice and twisted her body to jump off the young man.

"You little devil, don't move around, there is a puddle of mud on the ground, as soon as you go there, you should not be able to ask for straw sandals."

Feiran flicked left and right, stopping the restless little girl behind her.

Chu Jing was surprised to hear Fei Jian's voice.

"Brother Fei, did you accompany Piao Piao out?"

Because of the heavy rain, her journey was delayed for a while, but she didn't expect both of them to find this place.

Because Liu Piaopiao was very happy to find her sister, she wanted to get off the young man's back.

After being stopped, he was sobbing at his sister.

Chu Jing noticed and hugged her into his arms.

The little girl was almost seven years old, but because of her poor family, she was thin and small, and she didn't have any weight at all.

And because she has been doing farm work all year round, her arms are relatively strong.

It was easy to hug him into his arms and hold him with one hand.

Liu Piaopiao sat in her sister's arms, finally satisfied in her heart.

Although she is relatively poor in life, but because she is loved by others, her personality is a bit lively and innocent.

"Sister, didn't you buy rain gear when you came back? You were all soaked!"

Liu Piaopiao couldn't see her sister's appearance clearly, so she could only reach out and touch her body.

Sure enough, she touched water with one hand, and the woman didn't even wear the simplest bamboo hat.

There was an umbrella pinned to Feiran's waist, so he took off the umbrella from his waist and opened it.

"Hurry up and open the umbrella." His tone seemed a little eager.

Liu Piaopiao heard his voice and snorted.

She cared so much, but still refused to admit it.

"Brother Fei, I still have an umbrella in my hand, have you forgotten? I'll just open an umbrella for my sister."

She has always been serious about opening an umbrella, and just now she was serious about opening umbrellas for young men and women who were very close, but the umbrella in her hand was completely ignored.

This shows what?It shows that young people care about it and they are in chaos, ignoring this matter!

Hey, she is such a clever little ghost, and she can figure out such questions.

Liu Piaopiao, whose memory was sealed away in the illusion, began to be complacent because of the big sesame.

Feiran laughed twice.

"Go back quickly, it's late, it's not safe outside."

This torrential rain has been falling for a long time, and the mountain road must be more difficult to walk.

Landslides and mudslides are also more likely to occur and cannot stay for a long time.

Chu Jing hugged his younger sister in his arms, and gave a soft "hmm".

On the way back, the three of them were more silent than when Liu Piaopiao and Feiran were alone.

Feiran was embarrassed to speak, and Chu Jing didn't know what to say.

Liu Piaopiao was troubled by the atmosphere between the two of them, and she didn't speak for a long time.

After all, Chu Jing is only a 16-year-old woman, and she is still relatively immature, but she has always shouldered the responsibility of taking care of her younger sister, which makes her appear more mature. She walked for a while with Liu Piaopiao in her arms, and her breathing began to gradually become short of breath.

Although Feiran didn't speak, she kept paying attention to the people around her.

"Why don't you give me Piao Piao, I'll carry her on my back." He said.

"It's okay, I can still hold on."

Chu Jing, who has been taking care of his younger sister alone for a long time, has a somewhat strong personality.

Liu Piaopiao also didn't want to tire her sister.

"Let Brother Fei carry me, sister rest for a while."

She turned sideways, opening her arms.

Feiran understood, and immediately exposed his back.

Liu Piaopiao crawled over and was caught logically.

When Chu Jing relaxed his arms, he really felt a lot more relaxed, so he didn't say anything.

Liu Piaopiao handed her the umbrella in his hand.

"Sister, hold an umbrella, don't get caught in the rain again."

Shu Jing found the umbrella in her hand, with a smile on his face: "Okay."

It was too dark, Liu Piaopiao couldn't see the smile on her face, but she could hear it from the voice, she was happy in her heart.

The little girl lay on the young man's back. Because of what happened just now, she felt that the atmosphere was a little more relaxed, and she also opened up the chatterbox.

"Sister, if it rains so much tomorrow, can Master let us continue to rest and take a bath?"

"You think well, don't try to be lazy, you must study hard." Chu Jing followed her closely and said.
