Escape from the desert with aura: I am the only native in the whole family

Chapter 145 Father has a secret to tell you

Ah Jiu was taken aback.

It turned out that people in Heba Village really died yesterday, and it was the refugees who did it.

Ah Jiu waved his hands again and again: "No, no, no, it's the couple who were arrested on the official road a hundred miles outside Nanming City a few days ago."

Fortunately, Ah Jiu quickly withdrew her mind and calmed down between words.

"It turned out to be the couple who robbed the money."

As they said that, the two officials actually smiled: "I'll take you to see your parents."

This smile Ah Jiu felt quite weird.

Does A Niang still know how to bribe officials to take out their savings and beg for favors?

If A Niang knew the ways of the world, she wouldn't be able to speak, and she would always be straightforward.

"Thank you, Brother Guan." Ah Jiu lifted her skirt up high, otherwise she would step on the stairs.

After entering the yard, Ah Jiu followed the side road, crossing the rockery and flowing water all the way, and at the end, there was the word "dungeon" written on it.

Ah Jiu finally couldn't bear it and stepped forward quickly.

They were obviously imprisoned, and Ah Jiu didn't bother to inquire about other news.

With a click, the big iron door was opened heavily, and a damp musty smell rushed towards him.

The dungeon was very dark, all lit with torches, and it was obvious that day and night could not be distinguished here.

On both sides are all kinds of prisoners, some of whom have obviously used criminal law.

Some reached out to eat, and Ah Jiu was almost caught by the corner of his clothes.

The elder brother of the officer knocked on the cell door a few times with a long knife: "Be honest with me."

It's finally quiet now.

"Meng Shaode, your daughter is here to see you."

The two officials stopped outside a prison door and stood still.

Ah Jiu saw Father in shackles and handcuffs at a glance, and was...

Huh?
Why does Dad look so relaxed, sitting on the haystack and picking his feet.

"Not too long, the time for half a stick of incense." After finishing speaking, the two officials left.

"Ah?" Meng Shaode was taken aback, and pulled his unkempt pile of hair from the middle of the bridge of his nose to look at Ah Jiu:

"Ah... my daughter, why are you here?"

"Father, I'm worried about you, I'll come and see you." Ah Jiu took out the only two pomegranates left in the frame of the carriage from his arms and stuffed them in:

"Daddy, how are you doing? This is the pomegranate I planted."

It's a pity that Grandma ate all the others.

"Hey, there are pomegranates, girl, this is a good thing."

As he spoke, the scars on his dirty face stretched out. He broke open a pomegranate and stuffed half of it into Ah Jiu. A few mischievous and red pomegranates fell to the ground:
"Yo Yo Yo, I lost it... This can't be wasted."

As he said that, Meng Shaode quickly bent down to pick it up and blew the dust on it and stuffed it into his mouth.

Ah Jiu felt sore, Dad didn't deliberately make such an unburdened appearance because he was afraid that she would worry.

Ah Jiu looked around: "Where is A Niang?"

"Your mother, enjoy the blessing." Meng Shaode said, picked a handful of pomegranates, shook his head and stuffed them into his mouth.

"Father, don't lie to me. You must have suffered here. Where is mother?"

The more Dad looked like this, the more Ah Jiu felt that he was afraid that he would be worried, so he must be hiding something.

"No, do you still remember the piece of bacon left over from our house?"

Seeing that his daughter was serious, Meng Shaode didn't play sloppy anymore.

"Ah, remember."

"Your mother has been hiding in her body all the time. She is afraid that she will have nothing to eat one day, and she will starve you thin. This time, she will take it out and give it to the jailers. They are so happy that they don't know who their parents are. Who is it?"

Ah Jiu was dumbfounded, but seeing the smug look on Dad's face, it seemed that he really enjoyed being in prison.

But why does Ah Jiu feel that this is not logical.

"Well...and then what?"

"And then, your mother showed off her culinary skills. She would come back to dad's place at night, and cook for the yamen master during the day."

"..." Ah Jiu was so frightened that she dropped the pomegranate in her hand, which was called a goddess scattering flowers.

"Oh, girl, don't waste it." Meng Shaode quickly squatted down and stretched out the handle of the prison door, picking up the grains and blowing them.

"There is another secret, Father, to tell you."
