Chapter 172 186. Touching ([-])

Hearing what his father said touched the softest part of Mengyin's heart, his eyes were moist, yes, it's nothing more than a child from a poor family who has already become a family.

He never blamed or blamed his father, his life was miserable and his father was not easy enough, since he could remember, his father had given him enough goodness and enough love.

When he was ten years old, he was sensible and knew that eating a ration at home was a burden. At that time, it was just in time for the palace. There was a small famine a few years before the selection of servants, and the people in the city were naturally safe. Day, but like them, living in the suburbs is naturally a big fluctuation.

Although the imperial court also provided food and money for disaster relief, at that time, there were old, weak, sick, disabled men and children in poor health, and many of them died, especially children, many of whom died young.

Choosing servants in the palace is also an errand. One is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. Naturally, the family has a good life and will not send the children to suffer. They are usually born in poverty. There are too many children who cannot afford rations. , or the father did not love the mother and sold the child into the palace.

Kemeng was not one of these types, he was the one who learned the letter himself, and went to sign up secretly. Although he said that he had to be 18 years old, but in those two years, there were few children from poor families, so the recruitment After ten days in a daze, I couldn't make it all up. Of course, the aunt who was in charge was also anxious. If I couldn't handle this errand, I wouldn't be able to deal with my master when I went back.

So Mengyin can be regarded as blindfolded and blindly brought back together as a pretense. It looks smart and looks upright, all of which meet the requirements, except that this age is not enough, but age is not a deadlock. After being 18 years old, the masters will naturally not hold on to this kind of problem.

After pressing the fingerprints and signing a contract to enter the palace, you can only leave the palace after the age of 25. Although Mengyin was only 16 at that time, she was younger than the others, but she gritted her teeth and was cruel, and her courage was stronger than others. The people around him were ruthless, and the people around him might still wipe away their tears, but he rolled up his sleeves and pressed the red ink pad with his hand, pressing his handprint on the contract.

From the aunt who was recruiting at that time, she could see that he had a lot of courage, which also added a lot of color to his service for Xiao Yuying in the future.

Mengyin was busy helping his father boil the herbs.

"Daddy, this herbal medicine is on the stove. It will be ready in a while. Come down and drink it yourself. I have to go to the city before it is dark. I have to go to the pharmacy and apply the prescription prescribed by Langzhong Liu just now." All the medicines were taken back.”

"Looking at the sky, it's getting dark. It's still cold and dark now. When it gets dark, there will be no one on the road and it will be cold. Why don't you go tomorrow."

Meng Yin, he was not idle while talking just now, he carried the small back basket on his back, he was afraid that the herbal medicine that he would grab back in a while would be half a year's course of treatment, it would be piled up like a small mountain bag, and he was holding it in his hand, afraid that he would not be able to take it down , carrying a small back basket on the back.

If he could get them all at once, he would definitely bring them back this time. He didn't want his father to go to the city alone to get these medicines when he was not at home.

"It's okay Daddy, you'll have to take the medicine for the first meal tomorrow morning, no matter how early I get up, it's already noon when I get back, why don't I miss the morning meal, I have to get those medicines back now."

"Why are you so stubborn, kid? It's getting dark and it's so cold."

Parents are always worried about their children, but because of the tenacity and stubbornness in Mengyin, even eight cows can't pull her back.

"Daddy, you're right. I'm just stubborn. You know it. You can just lie down and rest assured. I'll be fine."

Mengyin pushed the door with the bamboo basket on her back and left.

On Xiao Yuying's side of Fenglang Palace, it was Mengyin who was not in the palace on the usual day of meeting, so the person who passed the note to him in the past yelled at the cuckoo and cuckoo for a long time outside the wall, but there was no response in the room.

"What, you said your letter didn't arrive yesterday."

Xiao Yuying's overwhelming momentum made the person kneeling below him very scared.

"Waste thing, what's going on? Why don't you hurry up and tell your mother clearly."

Beloved, pretending to be a fox and pretending to be a tiger, also scolded!

"The slave went to the usually agreed meeting place in the middle of the night last night, and also used the cuckoo's cry, but he didn't get a response. The slave didn't dare to leave. After waiting for a long time, it seemed that it would be four more days, and the sky was fast. It was bright, and the servant left in a hurry."

"You mean, there is no one in the palace to connect with you??"

"It's the imperial concubine. The slaves dare not talk nonsense. The imperial concubine is very careful."

"Go down first."

Xiao Yuying, sitting on the imperial concubine chair thoughtfully, logically speaking, there shouldn't be any problems. Mengyin is a meticulous work cultivated by him, and he has worked for him a lot in the past.

"Beloved, go check it out. I want to see people dead and corpses. I don't believe in quiet farts. It's weird."

Mengyin went to the pharmacy to grab medicine, and someone came to the house, "Boom, boom, boom!" !

The loud knock on the door was not so much a knock as a knock on the door. It was a knock on the door. The small broken wooden door of his house was already swaying in the wind.

"Come on, don't knock."

Mengyin's father struggled to get up quickly from the bed, for fear that if he slowed down for a while, the broken door of the house would really be knocked down.

As soon as the door opened, the faces of the three tall and thick women were not friendly.

"Old stuff!! Is this Mengyin's home?"

"No, no, you are looking for the wrong one."

The woman who was just about to raise her hand to close the door had sharp eyesight and quick hands, pushed him, and staggered and lay on the ground.

"I'm telling you, you old bastard, you don't want to lie to us. We are the imperial concubine and empress, you'd better tell me the truth, otherwise you won't know how you died.

You two, go in and search carefully to see if anyone is there."

After the leading woman pushed him down, she ordered the two women next to her to search the house.

"I'm an old man, why should I lie to you?"

The two women were not polite at all, they said they were rummaging, but they almost demolished the house, and the roof almost came off.

"Guys, you can search and search as often as you want, can you be more gentle, I, an old man, only have this thatched hut, if it breaks down, how can I live!!"

Looking at my old house, it really hurts me to be ruined like this.

"Okay, shut up, old man, or I'll send you to heaven right now!" !
