The Empress Dowager

Chapter 40 Memories ([-])

"Nurse?" Murong Yu remembered that this mountain was inaccessible, and there were not many families, let alone those who could afford a nanny. Could it be that the little girl lost her way?

"Well, it's Grandma Sun in my grandma's room. She is an old man next to grandma. She knows a lot. Grandma Sun also taught me my books. Grandma said that she is a very powerful lady. "

"Why are you here?"

"Grandma's birthday is about to be celebrated. Today, my mother took my sister and me to the Biluo Temple on the mountain to burn incense and pray for blessings. I was just playful and got lost when I went to pick mushrooms with my sister Zhang."

"Don't worry, you are lost here, your mother will definitely ask your father to bring someone to find you, so you don't have to worry."

"My father? He's not here, grandma said, my father has gone to the capital to be an official, and he is a very big official."

Probably hearing Murong Yu's consolation, the little girl became emotional, and as if she suddenly thought of something, she took out a stack of pastries wrapped in greased paper from her bag, and placed it in front of him: "This It's Deqingfang's dim sum, which is very rare on weekdays, this time my mother went to the city to buy it for me, try it."

Murong Yu hesitated for a moment. He took the dim sum and saw the words printed on the oiled paper at a glance. The dim sum in Deqingfang was often bought by his grandmother's family. He remembered that the oiled paper would have an expiration date printed on it. Obviously, this The snacks have been out of date for two or three days. Is the little girl's mother really poor or does she have other intentions?
"Cough cough."

"What, you have a cold?" Murong Yu heard the little girl cough twice suddenly, and looked back. At some point, her face turned pale, her cheeks were flushed, her body was trembling constantly, and big drops appeared on her forehead. Drops of sweat, looks extremely painful!

"Hey... Hey, little girl, what's the matter with you?"

"I am cold……"

Murong Yu hastily stretched out his hand to pick up the little girl, and after a while, the little girl's clothes were soaked through, and she passed out, her lips were white and dry, but her little hands were tightly grasping the corners of his clothes.

"It'll be fine, little girl." Murong Yu didn't even think about it, so he took off his clothes and covered the little girl's barely warm body. He looked around and saw that there was nothing in the forest after the rain to burn The material for the fire, without saying a word, he took off his shirt again, piled up the dry wood he barely found, lit it with flint, and let the little girl lean on himself to warm the fire.

After tossing like this for half the night, the little girl fell asleep in his arms, but he didn't dare to sleep all night, and he fell asleep vaguely for a while until dawn.

"Master Nine! Master Nine!"

Murong Yu was woken up by his guards, and when he opened his eyes, his clothes had covered him again, but the mysterious little girl was nowhere to be seen.

"What about people?"

"Who?"

"Last night... no, a little girl, about seven or eight years old."

"Master Hui, when we come, you will be alone."

"have they gone?"

For some reason, he was a little disappointed, Murong Yu didn't doubt that he was there, so he followed the guards all the way to the outside of the mountain, unexpectedly, but heard the guards said that they picked up a pair of small embroidered shoes by the side of the suddenly rising stream, He was shocked immediately.The child didn't leave by herself, she should have fetched water for him!

"Go, along this stream, find it for me!" Murong Yu immediately sent his attendants to look for it, but unfortunately they found nothing in the end, but I heard that the child of Nangong's family was also lost in the mountain that day, and it was also in the stream. found it.Murong Yu couldn't believe it, thinking that his subordinates were being lazy, he spent a lot of effort to find the local roster, and found Nan Gongjian's name, only then did he know that the child was fine, so he was relieved.
