"Doukou, leave the matter of the eighth girl to me, you can rest assured," Qi Tengmiao drove the carriage back in the early morning, and Doukou handed over the head of the mother's tragic death to Qi Tengmiao.

The weather was hot, and Mammy's body could not be left at home, so she went to find her mother.

"Mother, Qi Tengmiao and I went to bury the nanny," Dou Kou finished speaking, exited the room, glanced at her sister who fell asleep after crying, and said lightly, "The matter of letting Xiao Jiu drop out of school to study medicine with me Did you tell her?"

Osmanthus got up and straightened her sideburns, turned around and glanced at poor Xiaojiu, and said, "I said, although this child is young, he knows how to pretend in his heart. Go to the mother's side, so that your father can't keep up." ?”

After experiencing the events during the day, she was very anxious and uneasy, thinking that Lao Qi was really not dead, and she was always worried about Doukou and the others going out.

"Auntie, it's just me and Cardamom. The fewer people there, the better. But don't worry, I will definitely protect Cardamom and never let her get hurt," Qi Tengmiao said, grabbing Cardamom's hand.

Cardamom felt the strength coming from his palm, calmed down and said, "Mother, at dawn, put up a rest sign for Baiweitang. If we don't come back, don't open the door."

Osmanthus nodded, even if Cardamom didn't say anything, she would be found out that something was wrong when she opened the door in a state of anxiety, not to mention that Xiao Jiu's mood is unstable now, as a child, she might slip up one day.

"It's better to be stable for a while," Anping also got out of the house, squatting in the yard smoking a pipe.

Qi Tengmiao took Dou Kou out of the city overnight, and finally arrived at the mother's residence before dawn.

When they arrived, the golden sun had just risen from the vermilion outer wall, and Cardamom said, "Hurry up."

If it is late, it will be spotted by hunters around here.

They looked at each other, and Qi Tengmiao parked the carriage in a hidden place in the woods.

Cardamom came to the door, the door was ajar, she gently pushed it open, there was movement in the yard, Cardamom was stunned, it was the old grandfather who often hunted in this woods, the day that picked up Xiaojiu to leave, this grandfather still Give Xiao Jiu delicious fruit.

He was sweeping the fallen leaves in the yard, the firewood in the corner had been split, and the stove was still burning water.

Hearing the movement, the old man raised his head, saw it was cardamom, and said calmly, "You are late, your sister's nanny is gone."

Cardamom pursed her lips and nodded. Qi Tengmiao came in from the courtyard, holding the wooden box unloaded from the carriage in her arms, and inside was the head of Mammy.

"Grandpa, I'm here to see Mammy on her last journey. I'll give her a whole body." Cardamom walked out of the house. Just as she put her hand on the door, the old man sweeping the floor slowly straightened up. The agile old man hunting in the forest really Old, reminded cardamom not to go in with an old and feeble voice.

"You little girl, I will scare you, let me do it." The old man walked up to Qi Tengmiao tremblingly, took the box from his arms, walked to the door and turned to them and said, "Since you all Come, let's dig a hole beside the tomb of the old lady who she has served all her life, she has fulfilled the last wish of the old lady."

Originally, the family was well-off, but later they sold all their property just to find Miss Ba, and even sold their ancestral property, so they could only live in the old house here and wait for the children to come back. Now the seventh young master and eight misses have all returned.

"Let me ask you, have you seen the seventh son of this family?" On the morning the old woman died, he had just come to help chop firewood, and within a few hours, he heard the quarrel. When he came, he only saw this The seventh young master of the family cut off the head of the old woman and walked away.

Cardamom and Qi Tengmiao looked at each other, and with Qi Tengmiao's permission, Cardamom said calmly, "The Seventh Young Master is dead and has been burned to the mass grave."

The old man was relieved when he heard this, "Your hands are dirty, if my old bone can still be used, I will avenge her, thinking that I can finally have a companion when I am old, who knows that this is the only time Years, people are gone."

Cardamom didn't know what to say, so she cheered up and said, "Let's dig a place first."

The old man waved his hand to signal them to go, and he walked into the room tremblingly.

When Dou Kou and the others dug the hole and came back, they yelled in the yard and there was no answer. Qi Tengmiao stopped Dou Kou in his footsteps. He went to check the situation in the house by himself, and saw that the old man just now was lying peacefully beside the nanny and died. , the face is very serene.

"Dead, there is no pain to go."

After Qi Tengmiao finished speaking, Doukou shook her body, and he stretched out his hand to hold her in his arms, "Doukou, if you have an emergency in the future, I will definitely not live alone."

"Don't be silly, since everyone is gone, let's bury them together."

On the way back to Baiweitang, Dou Kou did not sit in the carriage, but insisted on sitting in front with him, watching Dou Kou staring at the roadside scenery without saying a word, Qi Tengmiao talked about other things to distract Dou Kou.

"What are you going to do with the eighth girl?"

Cardamom withdrew her distracted and unfocused eyes, and said lightly, "Kill, I can't keep it." After speaking, he turned his head to Qi Tengmiao, and when his eyes met, Cardamom smiled helplessly, "Do you think I'm a ruthless person?"

"No, if you say to save her life, I will also take her life before you know it. Anyone who can threaten you and your marriage will be spared."

Cardamom twitched the corners of his mouth weakly, and found that he couldn't smile at all, so he asked softly, "Why?"

"Because I'm not a god, I can't protect everyone you care about. In order not to make you cry, I will kill anyone who threatens the life of you and your family."

Cardamom raised her head and stared blankly at his sharp-edged side face, he turned her head slightly, their gazes were intertwined, Cardamom smiled knowingly, leaned on his shoulder, and walked back to Baiweitang without saying a word.

According to Cardamom, Osmanthus put up a rest sign before dawn. After the neighbors inquired, they knew that Xiaojiu was sick, so they didn't bother them.

On the contrary, there was a bald-headed young novice monk, wearing ordinary clothes, sitting in meditation at the entrance of Baiweitang.

Cardamom jumped out of the carriage and walked to the little monk.

Wu Jing heard the voice, looked up and saw Xiao Jiu's sister, got up in a panic, folded his hands together, and said hello.

"Wujing, the sun is so big, you won't be afraid of heat stroke while meditating here?" Doukou smiled slightly and asked, "Are you here to find Xiaojiu?"

"Xiao Jiu didn't go to the school. Some people said that she was sick, so I wanted to pray for Xiao Jiu here." Wu Jing is only six years old, but he has been with the master for many years. Ever since he can remember, the master has been like this Chanting and praying.

"Wujing, go back quickly, Xiao Jiu won't go to school anymore, you don't have to wait for her."
