"Where is your father and mother?" Xue Qinglian asked when stepping into the yard and closing the yard door.
Qianyi downplayed, "I died early. Many sisters in the village and I were brought up by elders. I don't even know what my parents look like, so I don't feel anything when talking about them, so you don't have to shy away."
Xue Qinglian's mouth twitched again. Which eye did she see him avoiding
Going into the bamboo building one after another, putting the oil lamp on the table, the dizzy yellow light immediately filled the room, and Xue Qinglian also saw the layout of the room clearly.
The tables and chairs are made of bamboo, and there are bamboo cups for drinking water on the table. Even the decorative pendants hanging on the wall are bamboo carvings or bamboo paintings. There is nothing else.
It can be said to be simple to rudimentary.
"Um, I'll cook you something to eat, and boil water for you to bathe by the way, so you can sit down for a while." Qianyi quickly slipped out after speaking.
Seeing the woman running away, Xue Qinglian sneered, because she was afraid that he could ask why he could bring a black household into the village.
Since he is going to stay here for a while, can she run today and tomorrow
Enough to deceive yourself and others.
When I walked to the bamboo chair against the wall and lay down, I hooked a bamboo stool with my feet and put my legs on it. The whole person became lazy.
The man's eyes closed slightly, his expression inattentive, as if he was thinking about something, but also as if he was dozing off.
On the other hand, Xiang Qianyi shrank in the kitchen room, cooking and boiling water while scratching his head, chanting and praying that the man was forgetful, and it was best not to mention anything and ask nothing.
Then she doesn't need to answer.
Then there is no need to delay time here, racking your brains and waiting for what to say to fool the man.
Fortunately, after the meal was finally put on the table, the man patronized the meal, and he really didn't ask anything.
After the shower, Qian Yi took him to the guest room, the door was closed, and did not mention the previous topic again.
When she left the guest room, Qian Yi's footsteps were unusually brisk.
Regardless of whether the man is forgetful or not, she has escaped tonight, and will talk about tomorrow.
But before she went back to the room, there was a knock on the door outside the courtyard.
Qian Yi stood still for a while, then walked out of the bamboo building to open the door.
On the way to the elder's house, Qianyi had never heard of her mouth, and she kept trying to get some news from the woman who led the way.
"Sister Qianyu, isn't the elder particularly angry?"
"Is she furious? Or is she silent?"
"Just tell me, I'll prepare myself, Sister Qianyu..."
The woman who called Qianyu finally sighed helplessly, "Qianyi, you are too headstrong this time. You ran out of the stockade without talking, and brought a man back. How could the elder not be angry? In short, this time you tightened your skin. Up."
"..." Qian Yi's shoulder collapsed.
Even a little bit of luck can't hold it anymore, this time he will definitely be punished.
When he reached the bottom of the stockade, he stopped in front of a bamboo building and Qianyu signaled Qian Yi to enter.
"Sister Qianyu, I'm a bit anxious, why don't you let me go to the latrine first?" Qianyi was pitiful with her feet in her belly.
Without waiting for a thousand words to speak, an old and stern voice came from the room, "Now I know I'm afraid, it's late, come in!"
"..." Stepping on small steps and slowly moving into the yard, the little pigtails on the woman's head were lost, "Elder, Qian Yi has admitted her mistake."
"Do you still know what you did wrong? Humph!"
As the courtyard door closed, the sound inside became muffled.
Qianyu did not leave, but stood guard at the gate of the courtyard, thinking of the frustrated expression of the little girl when she entered just now, a helpless smile appeared on her face.
"Don't come in quickly yet, how long will it take?" In the bamboo building, watching the small body in the courtyard move here almost at the speed of a tortoise, the old woman was not angry.
You don't need to be punished if you walk slowly
Or will the punishment be lighter if you delay it
It makes people angry and funny.
"I'll be there soon, elder." The little girl answered in despair, biting her head and trotting into the living room.
In the hall, the old woman is sitting at a bamboo table, with gray hair, stern expression, and not angry but majestic eyes.
Anyway, when Qianyi saw the old woman like this, he was scared in his heart.
"Elder, I was wrong, don't be angry."
"What's wrong?"
"... Get out of the stockade without authorization."
"anything else?"
The little girl lowered her head, but she didn't answer.
The elder's face darkened with a brush, where he was sincerely admitting his mistake.
"Why don't you always tell me where I am wrong, can I admit it to you?" Qian Yi cautiously probed.
She knew that the elder wanted to hear her admit that she had done something wrong with bringing a guardian back, but she didn't think she was wrong.
She doesn't want to enter the palace, she finds a way to solve the problem, so that no one is embarrassed, what's wrong with her
"Then tell me, the man you brought back is really your guardian? You really like him, and he really likes you? Making a marriage contract is not a trifling matter. If you are trying to avoid the palace and pick someone to fool others, I tell You, no one can fool you in the end!" The elder trembled with anger.
This girl really thinks that everyone is as innocent as her, so cheating
Who are those in the palace? Those are people who have been wandering in the struggle for power all year round.
If she is found to be lying, she will not be able to bear the consequences alone!
Qian Yi bit her lip and whispered in the eyes of the old woman, "I don't have any tricks, he is really my guardian..."
"Then tell me, what is his name, where is he from, what does he do, and what is his family background?"
"..." Qianyi got stuck. She only asked the man's name, but she didn't inquire about the others. How should she answer? Even the name doesn’t know if it’s true. Even if it is true, she can't tell the truth, she is worried that the elder will treat people as a guilty man in the future and ask him to settle accounts.
She is kind to help, she can't be too cheating, isn't she
You have to think of a fake name, a fake name... There was a flash of light in his mind, Qian Yi said, "Xue Honglian! His name is Xue Honglian!"
clever! In the future, it turned out that Xue Honglian was a woman, so surely the elders could not provoke them.
Somewhere in the shadow on the top of the bamboo building, the man's low body almost fell, and the corners of his mouth twitched wildly.
Damn, she can really break.
Still crooked.
Isn't the other guy in his body Guren.
Is it really God's will? Nonsence!
Prick your ears and continue listening.
The woman had a beginning, and the following story was made up in one go. Xue Qinglian almost believed it when she heard it.
"...His life experience is actually quite pitiful. He has no father and no mother since he was a child, but he was born on his own, learned a martial arts, and his kung fu is amazing! And he has a good heart, and the road is not parallel and chivalrous. When I came out of the stockade this time Being bullied by a bad guy is the one who saved me. Elder, hero save the beauty! I just like him, of course, he also likes me! Although he has no family background, he is alone, but I know that the elders are not Snobbish people. As long as others are good, good to me, and good to our stockade, that's the best, right?" At the end, the woman added, "If I don't want such a good person, I will serve the old emperor. , I’m not in my head!"
"Presumptuous! The emperor, in fact, a little girl can speak nonsense! Next time you will not be able to stop talking, just slap your mouth!"
"Elder, I was wrong. I was so frank in front of you. I will definitely not say this when I go out!"
