If he was really someone with malicious intentions, he might have opened the door and captured her when he found her alone.

"Brother benefactor? He told you that he lives in Huajia Village?" Qin Shu spoke.

"Yes." Hua'er nodded quickly. "The benefactor, the elder brother, saved us. He also said that if you want, you can come to Huajia Village to find him."

"Then where did you come from?"

"I came from the county seat and have been away for more than ten days. I... what I said is all the truth." Hua'er quickly glanced at the young man who spoke through the crack in the door, his face full of uneasiness.

"County town?" Qin Dagen exclaimed, looking at the little girl in tattered clothes outside the door with surprise in his eyes.

This kind of weather can be said to be quite severe even when walking from the county seat to Shanggu Town.

Qin Shu was a little curious about the big brother mentioned by the little girl, and even had some speculation in his mind.

For such a long time, except for seeing Hua Jin, no one else in Huajia Village came down the mountain.

But... could it be her?
  The county seat is hundreds of miles away from Shanggu Town. I don't understand why Miss Huajin would go to the county seat.

I immediately asked the little girl dressed as a shabby boy. If she didn't speak, I wouldn't be able to tell whether she was a boy or a girl at first glance.

"Do you know who the benefactor you talk about is?"

Hua'er carefully looked at the young man who was speaking through the crack in the door, "Is this Huajia Village?"

She asked Qin Shu the question she wanted to know most, but did not answer Qin Shu.

She came in with a very simple idea. She always wanted to know whether this was Huajia Village and whether they had found the wrong place.

This actually made Qin Shu's eyes flash with a strange look. She was a cautious little girl, which seemed normal these days.

"This... is indeed Huajia Village." Qin Shu gave her the answer she wanted to hear. It was obvious that the little girl's eyes lit up because of his words.

"I haven't said who your benefactor is yet. Maybe we even know each other?" As he spoke, Qin Shu opened the wooden door of his house before his father could react. This sudden scene scared the flowers outside, almost. He took several steps back in an instant.

Even Qin Dagen was frightened by his son and gave him a look of disapproval, but he followed his son's words since the door was already opened.

"Yes, little girl, maybe we really know the big brother you call your benefactor."

"Are you...really from Huajia Village?" Hua'er looked at the two people in front of him cautiously.

"Yes, if not, why would you live here?"

Hua'er frowned and looked at the two people in front of her carefully. Hua'er could still feel whether there was any malice in the many looks in front of her. Although the eyes of the two people in front of her were also wary, they didn't have the deep malice that she had experienced before. Because of this, she didn't run away the moment she opened the door. In addition, she really wanted to know if her benefactor lived here, so she nodded carefully after thinking about it.

"The eldest brother's name is Hua Jin."

"It's Miss Hua Jin," Qin Dagen couldn't help blurting out, and Hua'er's eyes lit up with the familiar tone.

"So we didn't make a mistake?" Hua'er looked at the two of them hopefully.

Qin Shu nodded and was sure that Hua Jin Qin Shu was also slightly looser on paper.

Thinking that Hua Jin does look like a young man to the outside world, and is rightly considered the eldest brother, it seems that what the little girl said is true.

I just don’t know when this girl went to the county seat?
  Qin Dagen was not so nervous when he knew that the little girl was really coming for Miss Hua Jin. Thinking of what she said, we couldn't help but ask: "How many other people are coming with you?"

Hua'er, who was immersed in joy, quickly raised his head and paused when he heard this, and said: "Nine people."

"There are still a lot of people? What do you mean..."

"...Big brother said we can come to Huajia Village to find him. I wonder if we can see her?" After saying this, Hua'er looked at the two adults in front of her carefully. Although she was not very old, she knew how to talk. Qin Shu couldn't help but take another look at the little girl.

"Probably not..."

Just when the little girl looked anxious, Qin Shu quickly said the second half of the sentence, "Because the big brother you mentioned is not here..."

"Aren't you here?" After all, she was a little girl. She was a little panicked when she heard that she was not there. She looked at the people in front of her helplessly and looked up at the sky from time to time.

"Yes." Qin Shu nodded. "Can you describe the appearance of your elder brother?"

He also wanted to confirm again, and this was related to the next decision to be made.

Hearing this, Hua'er quickly nodded. It was almost dawn, and she didn't have that much time. She thought she had to find a place to rest after she finished speaking. Then she described the appearance of her eldest brother. Although it was a bit dark, in short, he was just a person. Very good-looking brother.

Qin Shu also felt relieved after hearing this. Just make sure it is Hua Jin. It is indeed possible to save the little girl and her family with Hua Jin's kindness.

Isn't it because of Hua Jin's kindness that their family came to Huajia Village?
  In the mood of being connected with each other, Qin Shu's eyes towards the little girl became calmer again, at least a little less sharp.

"...If you want to see the big brother you call me, you can wait in the village."

Hua'er, who had given up all hope and was about to leave despite the absence of her eldest brother, suddenly burst into surprise when she turned around, and turned her head sharply: "Really? Can we come in?"

"Of course... you are not looking for big brother. This is where he lives. Since he has agreed, you can naturally live in temporarily."

"Thank you, thank you." Hua'er was so happy that she quickly thanked her.

"Don't be in a hurry to say thank you. You can come in but listen to me first."

Hearing this, Hua'er felt even more relieved. She was only worried when she let them in with just a few words.

Hua'er looked at him nervously.

"Little girl, you need to know that once you enter Huajia Village, you can't go out easily, and you have to help do whatever you can to live here. Do you see the wall in the village?" Qin Shu glanced at the wall in the distance.

Hua'er nodded. Of course he saw such a high wall. He was shocked when he came here. He even thought that Huajia Village had not suffered from the disaster.

"We will heighten the fence at night. If you want to live in Huajia Village, the condition is that the adults in your family will help."

Hua'er still nodded, but this time the speed of nodding was much slower than before, and she felt a little guilty in her eyes.

They didn't ask if there were any adults in the family. Brother Liu was considered an adult, so it wasn't a lie. Hua'er comforted herself like this.

"In that case, come in."

"What's wrong?" Seeing that the little girl didn't move, Qin Shu looked up.

"I can't move that... tree blocking the door." Hua'er said awkwardly.

"Then...how did you get in?" Qin Dagen asked. He really thought that the little girl's family had pushed away the trees at the entrance of the village.

"I... got in through the crack." At this point, Hua'er lowered her head. After all, she didn't get anyone else's permission to come in.

In fact, Qin Dagen had already reacted after asking this question, nodded and looked at his son.

The son had already agreed, so naturally he couldn't break his promise. Next, they had to help move the trees blocking the door.
