Chapter 109 A Very Good Child

The winter is cold and everything is depressed.

Qin Hua didn't realize how beautiful Langya Mountain was, but she saw many villagers digging wild vegetables on the road.

There are not many greens in winter, and most of the edible plants are the roots left in the ground.

Several villagers were carrying baskets, in which were dark brown roots, like Pueraria lobata.

In bad harvest years, Pueraria mirifica can be regarded as a good food. It is dry and hard to swallow, but at least it is full.

This year, the grain harvest in the southeast is not good, and there are droughts and floods, but the court seems to have heard nothing. It is not difficult to imagine that those officials are afraid that they will collect all the taxes by squeezing the people again.

At noon, the team stopped in a small town to have a meal and rest.

Jing Zhe had something to report to the prince. Qin Wei went upstairs alone. It was rare to see some sunshine today. She lay on the second floor of the restaurant to bask in the sun.

"Xiaobao, you eat this piece."

"Well, it's so sweet, my sister eats it."

A sweet smell wafted into his nostrils, and two immature voices came. Qin Hua looked over and saw that two siblings, one big and one small, were sitting in a corner of the restaurant where no one was around, sharing a piece of roasted sweet potato.

The sweet potatoes were roasted until they were scorched black, and after peeling off, many places inside were carbonized, but the siblings ate them with gusto.

There are many new patches on the clothes of the two of them. They look like children from poor families, but the clothes are very clean and the patches are neat. It is obvious that they have a very caring mother.

Seeing the two children eating happily, Qin Hua's appetite was rarely aroused. When she rolled her eyes, she suddenly thought of something funny.

She untied the purse from her waist and deliberately threw it towards them.

Sure enough, the two children saw it. The older girl picked up the purse, looked up, and saw the smiling Qin Hua, surprised by her little face darkened by the roasted sweet potatoes, and said shyly: "Sister, Is this your purse?"

Qin Hua nodded: "It's mine. It fell down accidentally. Can I trouble my little sister to bring it up for me?"

The little girl looked at her brother hesitantly, walked over to hold his hand, and went up the stairs.

When I walked to the door and saw Yuzheng wearing high-quality clothes, I was a little cautious: "Sister, a sister lost her purse...let us bring it to her."

Yuzheng got the order to wait here, and opened the door with a smile: "Go in."

When they went to the house, they saw a woman dressed in brocade and wearing a golden hairpin, who was so beautiful that she was not like ordinary people. The two of them were so frightened that they didn't know where to put their hands and feet.

"Sister...your purse..."

The little girl handed over the purse, only to find that there were several black fingerprints on the gorgeous and beautiful purse, which were obviously made by her fingers.

She had never seen such a beautiful purse, and it was soiled by her. She couldn't afford to pay for it, so she burst into tears in fright.

"I'm sorry sister, I... my hands are dirty... dirty it..."

The little boy originally shrank behind the little girl, but when he saw his sister crying, he hurried forward and pulled her sleeves, trying to coax his sister with his feet.

Qin Hua held the purse and didn't dislike it: "Thank you for helping me pick it up, don't cry, just wash it when it's dirty, actually I have something else to trouble you."

Qin Hua wiped away the little girl's tears with a handkerchief: "The sweet potatoes you ate just now smell so delicious, did you bake them yourself?"

Xiao Bao hugged the little girl's arms, and looked at Qin Wei timidly, his eyes were full of vigilance and fear.

While crying, the little girl still did not forget to comfort her brother, and patted his head before replying: "We baked it ourselves. Daddy went to work, and mother went to help people wash clothes. We are hungry, but there is nothing else." For grain, I can only roast two sweet potatoes to eat."

Qin Hua liked this sensible little girl more and more: "Are there any sweet potatoes at home? I think it's delicious, and I want to buy some from you."

The little girl shook her head: "It can't be sold, we keep it for the Chinese New Year."

Yuzheng chuckled: "This little girl is really sincere."

Qin Hua just asked, without any reluctance, just when the waiter in the store brought up the food, Qin Hua pointed at the chicken and buns: "Yuzheng, wrap these two up."

A bag of chicken and a bag of buns, together with the purse, Qin Hua handed to the little girl.

"Little girl, I'm not a bad person, but don't trust others too easily in the future. Take this to eat, and keep your purse. If you like it, keep it. If you have a chance to meet again, use it as a token, and I can do you a favor. "

"Yuzheng, send them back."

The little girl was stunned, not understanding how such a good thing happened to her, but the next moment she firmly pushed the thing back.

"We can't take it, mother said we can't take other people's things."

The little girl is quite principled.

Qin Hua raised her eyebrows: "Really don't want it?"

Her status is inconspicuous in the gods, but it is more than enough to help such a little girl, and she is in a good mood today, so I didn't expect that she couldn't send it out?

The little girl's eyes were clear and sincere, and she shook her head firmly: "I can't take it, thank you sister, I'm sorry for making my purse dirty."

The little girl led her brother away without taking anything.

Yuzheng couldn't help shaking her head: "This girl doesn't even know what she missed."

Being the imperial concubine is probably the most noble person this little girl can meet in her life, and she doesn't even want the opportunity presented to her.

Qin Hua didn't think so, but said with emotion: "Her mother taught her very well."

Know how to take care of your younger brother, be kind, not cowardly or greedy.

Such a poor family cannot bloom rich and noble peonies, but she is like a stubborn grass, persevering, and will always bloom her own fragrance in spring.

Very good for a child.
-
When the prince went upstairs, Qin Wei had already started eating, and sat down with clean hands: "You seem to be in a good mood, what good thing happened?"

Qin Hua didn't hide it either: "I met an interesting little girl."

The prince raised his eyebrows: "If you like a little girl so much, why don't you give birth to one yourself."

The topic changed unexpectedly.

Qin Hua's expression froze, but she suddenly remembered that she had consummated the marriage with the prince, and she hadn't drank the Bizi soup, so she couldn't really be pregnant, right?

She doesn't want to be a mother so soon.

Seeing Qin Yu's expression was stiff and mechanically eating, the prince's expression also sank: "So unwilling to have an orphaned child?"

Qin Hua turned her head stiffly, a little confused in her head, but it didn't prevent her from replying: "I just never thought about being someone's mother."

When Lin Manyue was pregnant, she knew that she was going to be an aunt, and she was very happy at that time, but being an aunt and giving birth to herself were two different concepts.

She doesn't want to be a mother, and the identity of a mother is not a good person to her. She doesn't like a mother, and she doesn't want to be someone else's mother.

For children or something, she didn't feel that she had maternal love.

The prince is clear about Qin Hua's relationship with the Shangguan family, and can understand why she rejects her. Although he is still a little dissatisfied, he didn't mention it again. Let nature take its course, there will always be.
