The small cabin is filled with a strange fishy smell, and the four siblings can barely sleep on the narrow bed. In order to take care of the younger brothers, Sun Ziyun sleeps on the outermost side. She can fall off the bed with just a slight turn over. .
Sun Ziyun didn't feel sleepy at all. She lay on the bed, listening to the snoring and indistinct babbling of her younger siblings, her mind was empty, as if she was thinking about something, but she didn't seem to think about anything at all.
Staying in this terrible Huaijin, she even began to doubt whether her choice was right or not.
If that person can't find someone in Jizhou City, he will definitely return to Yuzhou City. If she is in Yuzhou City, she will be able to wait for that person's arrival sooner or later. If she stays there, she won't have to suffer as much as she does now It's bitter.
When Qi Feng and Qi Wang brothers and sisters were helping, Sun Ziyun felt that her life was not so hard, but suddenly lost their two helpers, and she had to go alone with her younger siblings, she realized that she Far less powerful than she thought.
It's just that the thought of slack had just arisen, but was suppressed by Sun Ziyun. She didn't allow herself to have such emotions.
Things that are easily obtained in this world are not so precious, only those that are obtained through hardships and dangers will be the treasure that everyone dreams of.
She must go to Jizhou City, and she will definitely take care of her brothers and sisters, she can...
For the rest of the journey, Sun Ziyun relied on this belief to persevere. Sun Ziyin is a little girl who can only move her mouth. The two younger brothers are also young. Although they are sensible and obedient, because of their young age, they always talk Do some uncomfortable things.
"Sister, do we really have no money? I see that there are steamed buns on the boat. Sister, can you buy me steamed stuffed buns?"
"Sister, these cakes are really unpalatable, or you can buy us a bowl of soup, I feel like my throat will be poked by these cakes."
"Sister, when will we get there? This boat is too uncomfortable to sit on. I want to get off the boat."
"elder sister… "
"elder sister… "
The younger brothers and sisters called for their elder sister one after another, as if only Sun Ziyun could solve their problems, but Sun Ziyun himself was just a fourteen-year-old girl, so how could he take care of them properly
Soon the other three siblings of the Sun family found that the originally gentle and amiable sister seemed to be a little different from the past.
"We have run out of money, can you be more sensible? Can't you eat cakes? As long as you can fill your stomach, why are your requirements so high?"
"Where do I get money for you, can you stop embarrassing me like this?"
"The only food we have is these breads. I can't control you if you like to eat them or not."
Sun Zixun and Sun Ziyu were frightened by Sun Ziyun's sudden violent temper, they grabbed Sun Ziyin's hand and asked what was wrong with her.
"Fourth Sister, what happened to Sister Yun? She was not like this in the past. At that time, she was gentle to us. Why is she not patient at all now?"
"Yeah, Sister Yun shouldn't be like this."
In the minds of the two young boys, their elder sister Yun was always gentle and lovely, she had never shown such a hideous appearance in front of them, and now they were a little afraid of Sun Ziyun, and dared not go to her at all. She leaned forward.
Sun Ziyin also felt that Sun Ziyun had become different. As a woman, she could clearly feel Sun Ziyun's emotional changes, but she couldn't say much in front of her two younger brothers, so she explained: "It can't be Sister Weiyun, we really don’t have much money, we need to save some money, we don’t know what it will be like after arriving in Jizhou City, if you are so disobedient, what will we do when we are at the end of our rope?”
It must be like this. In the past, they had money on hand, and Qi Feng and Qi Huang were working hard to make money to support them. Naturally, Sun Ziyun and the others didn't need to worry about money, but this time their money paid for the boat. There was nothing left after Fei, but the two younger brothers wanted things at this time, so it was no wonder that Sun Ziyun was angry.
However, Sun Ziyu, the youngest, said abruptly: "Fourth sister, how can you say that my sister has no money? I saw her sew a piece of jade pendant into her close-fitting clothes before. Isn't that another piece of jade pendant? How did it happen?" Is it time to run out of water?"
You must know that the jade pendant is of good quality, even if you get it at a pawn shop, it can be pawned for twenty or thirty taels of silver, which is enough for them to spend.
Sun Ziyin couldn't help being stunned when he heard the words: "What did you say? Sister Yun still has a jade pendant on her body? Are you sure? Did you read it wrong?"
Sun Ziyu shook her head and said, "I'm not mistaken. I saw it for real at the time. That jade pendant doesn't look like a cheap item. If we sell it, it will probably last us a long time."
After saying this, Sun Ziyin fell into silence. She casually comforted her two younger brothers, and then thought about the jade pendant again.
Sun Ziyu was still young, so she didn't know what Sun Ziyun's hiding a jade pendant meant, but Sun Ziyin was no longer a child, she knew very well what a jade pendant represented.
When the elder sister and the second sister were ill, if they had enough money to treat them, they probably would not have died.
Sun Ziyun has always said that they have no money, and the elder sister and the second sister also thought so at the beginning. In the beginning, the two of them were not seriously ill. If they could get treatment in time, their bodies would recover quickly.
However, who would have thought that the elder sister and the second younger sister became seriously ill from birth to death. At that time, the two elder sisters still wanted to let them keep the remaining money so that they could cope with their future lives. They would rather die than waste the money .
But if it was true what Sun Ziyu said, she hid a jade pendant, wouldn't it mean that she watched her eldest sister and second sister die because they had no money for medical treatment
No, Sun Ziyu is not like that...
Sun Ziyin told herself that, that night, her hands were groping on Sun Ziyun's body calmly, and indeed she touched a hard object near her heart. Judging from its texture and size, it really looked like a jade pendant. .
At this moment, Sun Ziyin felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, she stared blankly at Sun Ziyun, not knowing what she should be thinking about this matter.
There was no light in the room, and it could only be illuminated by the skylight shining in through the narrow window. After staying in the dark room for a long time, her eyes adapted to the darkness. Sun Ziyin raised her head slightly, and with the faint light, she saw Sun Ziyun's face .
That familiar face looked very strange at this moment. Sun Ziyin felt as if something was stuck in her throat. She gritted her teeth, organized her words secretly, and finally asked the question .
"Sister Yun, is there nothing on you? If the Qi family doesn't want to accept us after we arrive in Jizhou City, what should we do then?"
"Didn't you say that we have no money? The Qi family doesn't want us, so we can't go back to Yuzhou City... What should we do then?"
At this time, Sun Ziyun was in a bad mood, so naturally she didn't hear that Sun Ziyin's tone was wrong. She sighed, patted her on the shoulder, and said softly: "Don't worry, I will have other ways when the time comes, I always I will protect you well, with me here, you don’t have to worry about other things.”
However, Sun Ziyin felt chills all over her body. She put her hand on the jade pendant, and wanted to question Sun Ziyun about the jade pendant, but if they broke up with Sun Ziyun now, what should they do next
Sun Ziyin is only twelve years old this year. In the past, he was a savage and willful little girl. She had never experienced anything. Even after wandering and fleeing for more than a month, she didn't mature much. She knew about Yupei by chance. After that, she didn't dare to confront Sun Ziyun face to face.
She was afraid, Qi Duan and Qi Feng had left them and left, the only person they could rely on now was Sun Ziyun, if Sun Ziyun also gave up on them, then they really had nothing.
"Sister, we only have you...don't give up on us..."
Sun Ziyin suddenly said something, Sun Ziyun patted her on the back, and said softly: "You girl, what are you talking about? How could I give up on you? You are my younger brother and sister, the only ones I have in this world. The remaining relatives, no matter what, I will not abandon you."
Sun Ziyun thought that Sun Ziyin was afraid because of her bad attitude during the day, so she patiently apologized to Sun Ziyin and coaxed her.
Sun Ziyin's body slowly relaxed, and her hand on the jade pendant moved away.
She acted as if she didn't know about it... Maybe Sun Ziyu was wrong, maybe that jade pendant wasn't worth much, Sun Ziyun is such a good person, how could he be the kind of cruel and merciless person she thought
She was thinking too much.
Four days passed by in a flash, and when they got off the merchant ship, the four siblings seemed to have peeled off a layer of skin, and they almost couldn't stand still.
But fortunately, after going through all kinds of difficulties and dangers, they finally arrived in Jizhou City. Now as long as they go to Qi's house, they will not live the hard life before.
However, when they were looking around and wanted to ask passers-by how to get to Qi's mansion, a few people in coarse clothes suddenly appeared in front of them.
"Are you young masters and misses of the Sun family?"
The big man in the lead asked a question abruptly. Seeing this, Sun Ziyun's intuition was wrong, but before she could say anything, the youngest Sun Ziyu had already spoken first.
"Yeah, how do you know?"
After the leader heard this, he immediately said: "It's them, brothers, go."
As they said that, those strong men surrounded them.
Sun Ziyin and the others were terrified, Qi Qi hid behind Sun Ziyun, and Sun Ziyun was also terrified, but at this moment she insisted and said, "In broad daylight, what are you guys trying to do? Be careful, I will report to the government. You go."
There were people coming and going on the pier, and she couldn't believe that these people really dared to do something to them.
The head of the strong man said with a dull face: "Are you Miss Sun San? Our master said that after we found your traces, we will immediately send you back to Yuzhou City. This Jizhou City is not the place you should come to." .”
Sun Ziyun was stunned, and said sharply, "Who is your master?"
The strong man with the beard replied honestly: "Our master is Qi Shengkun, Mr. Qi, Miss Sun San, since you know the identity of our master, then you should also be very clear why our master sent you back. Yuzhou City, please leave as soon as possible, don't delay your time."
Sun Ziyun imagined countless possibilities, but the only thing she didn't think of was that their siblings would be sent back to Yuzhou City by these people just after they got off the boat. What has happened to them for more than a month
In desperation, Sun Ziyun suddenly shouted: "Everyone, come and see, come and see, the imperial merchant Qi's family in Jizhou City bullies people like this. Our siblings have encountered great disasters, and we have traveled all the way to join our uncle and aunt. Is it reasonable to drive us out without even seeing each other?"
Whether to lose face or not, the current Sun Ziyun doesn't care about that at all, she only has one thought now, and that is to stay in Jizhou City, no matter what method is used, she will stay here.
Although Sun Ziyin and the two younger brothers didn't know what happened, they soon started yelling. The strong men didn't expect these people to be so careless, and they yelled like this in public , They hurriedly wanted to stop people, but they were concerned about the difference between men and women, so how could they block people's mouths
There are guards patrolling the pier and ferry, and the movement here quickly attracted the guards. The strong men immediately raised their hands, indicating that they did not intend to take any violent action.
After seeing the yamen servants, Sun Ziyun's high hanging heart was finally relieved.
As long as there are yamen servants, these people will never dare to send them away.
