Zhou Xiaolian bit her lip and looked at Qin Yining, she could see Qin Yining's concern and sincerity towards her, and finally nodded, "I, I listen, what my sister said."
"Okay." Qin Yining said with a smile, "Then, you promise to obey your sister in the future, and you will follow me when you go out. I will teach you to read and teach you how to live in the outside world. You must also promise your sister, Don't leave your sister's side, okay?"
"Okay." Zhou Xiaolian nodded heavily.
Qin Yining thought about it and said, "Don't forget your roots, you will call Lian Xiaozhou in the future, okay?"
"Lian Xiaozhou?" Zhou Xiaolian widened her eyes, "lotus seed porridge."
Qin Yining said in disbelief: "It's the one named Lian. If anyone asks you in the future, you can say that your surname is Lian. Your father was a hunter in the mountains, and now he has passed away. I happened to meet you in the mountains and I'll take you out. .Your name is Xiao Zhou, which is your original surname Zhou. In fact, my sister just turned your name upside down."
"My surname is Lian, my surname is Lian. Daddy, I'm a hunter. My name is Xiao Porridge, Lotus Seed Porridge, Lotus Seed Porridge is delicious, and it is called Lotus Seed Porridge."
Qin Yining felt that he had lost to her.
This child has a deep obsession with lotus seed porridge.
But since she likes it, why not call it Lian Xiaozhu
Beiji has perished, then there will be no Princess Yongfu in the world, nor will there be Zhou Xiaolian, the tyrant's most beloved little princess.
Those heavy pasts are a shackle to this child.
Now that everything has been decided to start over, it may be a good thing for her to choose a name that has nothing to do with the past and let her forget which memories.
"Okay, then from now on, you will be called Lian Xiao Porridge, Lian Lian, and Lotus Seed Porridge."
Zhou Xiaolian, it was time to call Lian Xiaocong, she nodded heavily, her eyebrows curled with a smile.
Qin Yining smiled and said, "Okay, let's eat first. When we're full, my sister will boil some water for you to bathe." She found that there was a large wooden basin at the back of the house, which should have been specially prepared by "Uncle" before.
Lian Xiao porridge chewed on the moderately salty roasted sparrow, drank rabbit soup, and nodded again and again.
Qin Yining didn't know how the child had been through these years. Anyway, he had prepared the bath water. When the child took the water, the water was completely dark.
I only washed my hair and washed the water in the three large wooden tubs, and I don't need to elaborate on wiping my body.
Anyway, Qin Yining just kept adding firewood to the stove and fetching snow. The water in the wooden tub was dirty, so she let Lian Xiaozhu wrap her cloak and wait, and then continued to wash after the water was boiled.
After such a tossing to the afternoon, a white and tender beautiful child was already standing in front of her.
Because of malnutrition, the nine-year-old child looks like only seven or eight years old. The hair is a little yellow, but it is soft and smooth. The face is white and tender, and the round cat pupils are moist and bright. There is a pair of small pear vortexes on the pink cheeks, just like Qin Yining.
If you don't know, some people may believe that even Xiaozhu is Qin Yining's sister.
Qin Yining dug out a few pieces of "Uncle"'s single clothes from the bag, put them on Lian Xiaozhu for the time being, and wrapped her tightly with his own jacket, so she let her play in the house by herself. Afterwards, she washed the clothes she was originally wearing from the inside to the outside and dried them outside the house, so that she could also clean up for herself.
After all this was done, it was already dark.
Qin Yining warmed up the rabbit soup, and the two ate together. Qin Yining used five fingers as a comb to comb Lian Xiaozhu's hair.
The child's hair is soft and smooth and easy to manage. She put two braids on Lian Xiaozhu, removed the light blue ribbon that adorn her skirt, and tied two beautiful bows at the ends of the braids.
Lian Xiaozhu happily played with his hair and couldn't put it down.
When sleeping at night, Lian Xiaozhu got into Qin Yining's arms, hugged her and refused to let go, and kept saying, "Hello, sister, I like sister."
Qin Yining's heart softened when she heard it, and she made up her mind even more that she must hide her background and not allow anything that threatened her safety to happen!
Two days later, even Xiao Porridge's clothes were completely dry, so Qin Yining dressed her and wrapped it in clean animal skins. Not afraid of the cold, Lian Xiao Porridge took Qin Yining to hunt in the mountains.
During Qin Yining's activities with Lian Xiaocong, she kept observing the surrounding situation to check if anyone had left footprints, and to make sure that the pursuers had not chased the vicinity. The corpse was brought back and buried in the woods at the lee of the house.
"Little porridge, we should leave here."
This morning, Qin Yining solemnly said to Lian Xiaozhu, "Before I leave, I must burn everything here, including the secrets of your past, because I can't let anyone have the opportunity to probe into your past."
Lian Xiaozhu nodded, she had no objection, she was very happy with Qin Yining these days, and she knew that Qin Yining was really for her good.
Qin Yining and Lian Xiaozhu packed up.
In the end, Qin Yining burned the letter that the tyrant wrote to "Uncle", and used a machete to dig the frozen soil at the corner of the wooden house. , a fire set the cabin alight.
Lian Xiaozhu took Qin Yining's hand and pointed at the wooden house a little anxiously: "Sister, it's on fire."
"Yeah. Don't be afraid, now that the snow is heavy, although the fire will burn, it will not destroy the entire forest, and I have observed that the northwest wind is blowing recently. My sister has been in the mountains for so many days. Someone must be looking for me outside. Now the bad guys who want to capture me must have retreated. My sister's family will know that I am here when they see so much smoke. We just need to wait nearby. ."
Even Xiaozhu didn't understand, but he nodded obediently.
Qin Yining saw that the entire wooden house was set on fire, along with the forest where she buried the four bodies, and she could finally feel relieved.
Although it caused a mountain fire, I was very sorry for the small animals in the mountains.
But in order to save Lian Xiaozhu's life, all evidence that would reveal her past must be destroyed.
Including the uncle, including those three soldiers, including those uniforms, that letter, and that jade seal.
The jade seal could not be burned, and Qin Yining could not carry the jade seal with him.
If you don't need it in the future, then it's not a bad thing that the jade seal has been left in this mountain.
Once you need it in the future, it is not difficult to find the origin of this burning ground. You can get the jade seal by digging the location of the wooden house.
Qin Yining had planned everything properly and made sure that nothing was missed, so he hid with Lian Xiaozhu.
At the same time, Pang Xiao, who had been searching for five or six days in this rolling mountain, was finally able to show a relieved smile when he looked at the direction of the billowing black smoke.
"Huzi, sound the arrow, someone found it."
