how to kill a dragon

Chapter 78 She Fell Into the Same River Twice
On a rainy day, the road was slippery, and the woman held the package in her arms tightly with one hand and the umbrella with the other, and walked with difficulty in the heavy rain, moving little by little in the direction of her daughter like an ant.

When passing a noodle stall, a yellow-haired dog suddenly yelled at her. The woman was startled, and the umbrella fell into the mud, and she fell into the river on one side.

Even in the river, she still hugged the package in her arms tightly, as if she was holding on to her only life-saving straw and refused to let go.

Axiu saw a tall gray figure jumping into the river under the dim light of the sky, and pulled the woman up.

That is Zheng Liu.

It turned out that he was right, he did not lie, the thief Zheng Liu really went to save people.

Zheng Liu struggled to pull the woman to the shore, and the owner of the booth next to him was also relieved, and kicked aside the dog in front of him, which had been barking at the woman and barking its teeth. Master, I don't understand why I was kicked.

The owner of the noodle stall didn't care about his puppy. He took a bowl of freshly boiled hot water from the pot and brought it over. All relieved.

After the woman woke up, she seemed to be in a daze, and without thanking them both, she stood up holding the wet package in her arms, and walked over to Ah Shau's small yard in a daze, muttering Mumbling to herself that she wanted to give her daughter her favorite hot white sugar cake, this time Auntie put a lot of sugar.

If you eat more sugar, you won't feel bitter, right?

Seeing that the woman didn't have an umbrella, she braved the wind and rain all the way to the gate of the small courtyard like a wet water ghost, and asked someone to say that she wanted to see herself.

What did you say to yourself at that time?

See you, let her die.

She looked at the woman's pale face, and she was not angry when she heard what Qingping told her. She just opened the corners of her mouth and gave a stiff and benevolent smile to ask Qingping to hand over the shattered white sugar cake in her arms.

She protected the package so carefully all the way, even if it fell into the water.

Then this bag of white sugar cakes, which had been soaked in rain and river water after being soaked in wind and rain, was stained with sweat, and was already soaked and cooled, was thrown away without hesitation.

The woman looked at the closed door in front of her for a long time, then turned around and limped away.

On her way home, the relief team sent by the government happened to come to the city to distribute food, and the hungry and red-eyed people rushed to get the relief porridge with the biggest bowls or pots at home.

Desperate, the woman was knocked into the river beside by the oncoming crowd.

After this exhausting night, she no longer had the strength to struggle, without any calls for help, without any thumping, and sank into this rushing river without any splash.

This is the second time she has fallen into the river.

Also the last time.

This time, there was no Zheng Liu, no noodle shop owner, no one even saw her fall into the water, and no one rescued her.

She was silently swallowed by the rushing river.

Axiu stood on the bank where the woman fell into the water, staring blankly at the river she had seen countless times. She subconsciously wanted to jump into the river to give her a hand, but there was a little coldness on her forehead again. Waking up from those past images.

A slight coolness came from his cheeks, and Ah Shu subconsciously touched her own face, which was wet and already covered with tears.

Wang Xiaotai poured her a glass of cold water.

"Ms. Fuyao, did she ask you to come to me?"

She asked the question, but she didn't seem to need the answer to the question anymore.

Axiu didn't drink any water, she looked at Wang Xiaotai, as if she was confiding in something, and also seemed to be in a deeper confusion, "I thought she didn't want me anymore."

"I really thought she didn't want me long ago."

"How could she... how could she do this!"

Axiu was crying unconsciously, and looked at Wang Xiaotai with wide eyes, hoping that she could give herself an answer, "Didn't she want me? For so many years, no one has come to find me, no one has come to save me... ··”

"Why is she doing this to me!"

"Aunt..."

"Aunt..."

Axiu lay on the table mourning and weeping, choked and unable to speak, she was born beautiful, even crying was sad and beautiful, lying on the table was like a white swan hanging its neck on the lake on a rainy day, facing the water And according to.

Wang Xiaotai just sat there, looking down at her crying, admiring her painful beauty.

In fact, it was Ah Shau's mother who sent Wang Xiaotai to Ah Shau's side in the dark, and she sacrificed her life.

Axiu slowly raised her head, "You know what? Actually, I don't like white sugar cakes."

Her voice was hoarse, "I really don't like white sugar cakes.

"When I was a child making white sugar cake at home, I could only get half a piece... I just wanted to be able to eat a whole piece of white sugar cake like everyone else.

"I don't like eating sugar cakes... I just... want to be like others...
"I really don't like sugar cakes.

"Why did she give me this kind of thing! I... I don't need it at all!

"I'm a person without a mother now, my mother, I don't have a mother anymore.

"Ma'am, why?"

She asked Wang Xiaotai painfully.

Wang Xiaotai sighed slightly, stretched out her left hand, placed it lightly on the top of Ah Shu's hair, and said softly: "Everyone must die."

"Ordinary people will take care of themselves..." Axiu murmured and took the sentence.

Mortals are mortal.

Everyone will take care of themselves.

"Think about what you want to change your name to.

"It's not a whore, Shame, or Lili. Let me start a new life with a new name."

Seeing that Axiu has slowed down a little, Wang Xiaotai rubbed the top of Axiu's hair, "Come and find me when you think about it..."

"I've made up my mind." With red and swollen eyes, Ah Xiu grabbed the sleeve of Wang Xiaotai's left hand, "Your Majesty, I've made up my mind."

"Little treasure."

"I want to be Xiaobao."

Xiaobao?

Wang Xiaotai frowned, "No surname, no first name, just Xiaobao?"

Shame nodded affirmatively, "Well, it's just Xiaobao.

"That's my favorite name.

"Since I was very young, I always hope that someone can call me Xiaobao, and I want to be Xiaobao too.

"It's not Lili, it's not Shame, it's just Xiaobao."

In Ah Shau’s former village, girls might be called Xiaohong, Xiaoli, Xiaomei, Xiaoyue, etc., while boys might be Dazhuang, Ah Yong, Ah Wei, A Kang, etc.

There are tens of thousands of names in this world, and Ah Shau has seen many other 'Little Treasures'.

But Axiu has never seen her parents call her Xiaobao affectionately.

Little treasure, little treasure, little treasure.

my little baby.

This name reveals an atmosphere of love and affection from the inside to the outside. This intimate title closely connects parents and children, but this intimate title is bestowed on the younger brother who is more favored.

It's as if only a younger brother can be a little treasure, but a sister can't be a little treasure, not even a big treasure.

Shame just wants to be that 'Little Treasure' that only belongs to her younger brother.

If it's Xiaobao, if it's Xiaobao's parents' favorite, many things will be different, right?
"Then Xiaobao."

Seeing Ah Shu's firm eyes, Wang Xiaotai knew that she had already made a decision, so she nodded, "From now on, you are Xiaobao."

"Little treasure."

Shame, no, it was Xiaobao who nodded vigorously.

Under the sky, the well-known Dingzhou oiran sat on the ground with loose hair, looking devoutly at the woman in white clothes in front of her, her eyes were red and swollen, and there were still tears on her face, her expression was sad and bewildered, and she was full of fear attachment.

"Xiaobao." Wang Xiaotai called again.

Xiaobao suddenly felt that the sadness and fear had faded for some reason. She seemed to have gained some strength from this name, and nodded vigorously.

Here I am.

Xiaobao is here.

　Alas, sometimes I always feel wronged, but I never thought that Lili could still get half a piece of white sugar cake, and my mother might not even have to eat it.But by nature, people always feel that they are more pitiful.
