Chongzhen's open life

331 Mist
"Xiaozhu, come to parents soon, what are you all, what are you doing to my girl!"

Before Xu Guangqi could react, a middle-aged couple-like man and woman rushed over. The woman among the men and women hugged Xiao Zhu tightly in her arms, while the man had a look on his face. Facing Xu Guangqi and his party vigilantly, his eyes flickered fiercely, as if he was about to fight for his life with Xu Guangqi and his party in the next moment.

Seeing this situation, Xu Guangqi suddenly realized that these should be the parents of the little girl. Seeing them like this, the two of them should be regarded as kidnappers who kidnapped and sold children. Just as he was about to explain, Xiaozhu in the woman's arms raised his head and looked at his mother and said, : "Ah mother, ah father, grandpa is not a bad person.

There were bad guys trying to bully Xiaozhu just now, it was Grandpa who drove them away, and Grandpa gave Xiaozhu big white steamed buns to eat, parents, look!This is a big white steamed bun made of fine flour! "

As the little girl spoke, she raised up the two halves of steamed buns in her hand, and handed one of them to her mother, saying: "Oh mother, you are as hungry as Xiaozhu, Xiaozhu has heard that your stomach is like Xiaozhu's. My stomach is growling, this is a steamed bun given by my grandfather, mother, you eat it, it’s delicious, it’s delicious~”

The eyes of the woman turned red in an instant, and the tears kept falling like rain, her voice was choked and she hugged the little girl tightly, crying continuously: "Mother is not hungry, mother does not eat, mother only needs Xiaozhu to be healthy, mother will not eat again." I won't leave Xiao Zhu alone anymore, never again... woo woo woo..."

"Mother~"

The little girl looked at her mother's appearance in confusion, and didn't understand why she still cried when she had steamed buns to eat, but she stretched out her little hand and patted her mother's back and said: "Mother doesn't cry, mother said, Those who cry are not good children, they will be taken away by the tartars, mother does not cry, Xiaozhu does not want her mother to be taken away by the tartars, woo woo woo..."

After all, she was still a child, and the little girl was also brought into tears by the woman's crying as she spoke, and both mother and daughter were crying for a while.

Here, Xiaozhu's mother and daughter cried together, while Xiaozhu's father over there was taken aback after hearing what his daughter said, and then looked at Xu Guangqi and his party with ease, but a little vigilance still lingered in his eyes.

The man bowed to Xu Guangqi and his party with fists in both hands, and then said: "I heard from my girl that you saved my little girl's life just now, but I misunderstood that you are not good people, and I feel very guilty in my heart. If you need anything Those who help, please speak bluntly, although I am low-key, but I am a native of Xipingbao, and you should be outsiders, so maybe you can help me with some things."

When the misunderstanding was resolved, Xu Guangqi smiled. Hearing the man's words, his heart moved, and he cupped his hands in return:
"A strong man speaks seriously. When you go out and encounter injustice, you should reach out to help. A strong man doesn't have to do this. As for the misunderstanding, a strong man loves his daughter very much. The old man can understand, so the strong man doesn't have to feel guilty.

However, what the strong man said is not bad. The old man and his party are indeed foreigners and businessmen. Hearing that Xiping Fort was rebuilt, the family thought that there should be business, so I asked the old man to come and see. If the strong man has time, I wonder if I can bother the strong man and the old man. Explain the current situation in Xiping Fort, so that the old man can give the family an answer as soon as possible.

Of course, if it is really inconvenient to hear Ling Qianjin say that strong men buy soldiers in the army, that's fine. "

When the man heard Xu Guangqi's self-introduction as an out-of-town businessman, he showed a genuine look on his face, and when he heard Xu Guangqi say that the family sent him to explore the way, he even showed a sudden look. Unlike the appearance of carrying goods, it turned out that they came to explore the way.

Having figured out the doubts in his heart, the middle-aged man immediately cupped his hands and responded: "Old man, you are being polite. I just want to ask about some trivial matters. How can I refuse? Besides, the army of Xiping Fort now Zhong... Sigh! Don't talk about it, my home is not far away, if I believe it, I can go down to my house and sit down, and I will carefully tell the current situation in this castle to my old man."

"Okay, then bother the strong man."

"Old man, you are being polite, it should be."

……

After a while, inside a low bungalow in the south of Xiping City.

Xia Dayu brought Xu Guangqi and his party back home. Xia's house is not big, a dilapidated low bungalow, but it can shelter Xia's house from wind and rain.

After welcoming Xu Guangqi, the obvious mastermind, into the room and sitting down, Xia Dayu apologized and left for a while.

Taking his wife to the outside of the house, Xia Dayu took out a piece of broken silver and handed it to his wife, and whispered: "Mother, take the silver to buy some rice and meat and come back to cook. It’s not good to not repay our daughter for saving our daughter, although our family is poor, but at least we should treat him to a meal.”

When the woman saw the money, her eyes widened. She took the money into her hand, looked at her husband and asked eagerly, "Bosses, haven't you paid any money since you joined the army? Where did the money come from?"

Xia Dayu patted his wife's head comfortingly: "Don't worry, this money was just distributed today. It is said that the deputy guard saw that everyone's life is going to be difficult, so he paid it out of his own pocket for the brothers."

"Pay out of your own pocket?! Why pay out of your own pocket? Isn't today the day for payment of money? Didn't the court give it?" The woman asked puzzled.

Xia Dayu's face turned gloomy, and he clenched his fists tightly and said bitterly: "Pay from the court? Oh, the court did give the pay, but it didn't reach us."

"Why is this?"

Xia Dayu looked at the direction of the defense mansion and said angrily:

"It is said that our salaries were all deducted by that dog Zheng Fangping, not only that, but also all the relief supplies that the imperial court gave us to Xiping Fort were swallowed up by that dog, and now the tragic situation in Xiping Fort is all due to that dog Zheng Fangping Give!
So... so..."

Xia Dayu became more and more angry as he spoke, his fists creaking.

The woman held her husband's hand worriedly. She had never seen him like this before, and asked worriedly: "Although my family has never read a book, I still know some truths. There is no such thing in this world. The cheapness will fall from the sky, and the guard pays you money out of his own pocket, is he going to ask you to do something?"

Xia Dayu was silent, and after a while he said: "Don't worry about it so much, the outside world is up to the men, you are a woman, just take care of the house, go and buy rice and vegetables."

Seeing this, the woman sighed softly, knowing that she couldn't persuade him anymore, she could only tell him in the end: "My family is just an ordinary woman who only cares about her husband and daughter, as well as the daily necessities of the family. , I don't know what you are going to do outside the house?

But what I want to say is that no matter what you do as the head of the family, you have to think about your family. We don't want to be a good person, but we just want to have a clear conscience.

If... If there is really no other way, our mother and I will stand by your side no matter what, and our family will advance and retreat together! "

After speaking, the woman turned around and left.

However, Xia Dayu hugged his wife into his arms, stroked his wife's hair with trembling hands, and murmured in a low voice: "Don't worry...don't worry...we just want to live.

The rest of the money is enough for three days at most, but don't worry, after three days, I will let you and Xiaozhu live a good life, and our family will no longer be hungry.

He promises to live...they promise to live..."

The cold winter wind howled past, drowning the murmur of Xia Dayu in the cold wind, and a figure quietly left in the corner...
