Pastoral lucky girl's counterattack

Chapter 4

The child was dirty all over, with a pair of round and big eyes under the disheveled hair, which were flooded with water.

There is a scar on his left cheek, which is straight and narrow, obviously a knife wound.From the point below the end of the eyebrow to the left corner of the mouth, I don't know if it hurts to see him eating so hard?

"Eat slowly, I've given it to you, and I won't take it back." Qiu Laifu couldn't bear to persuade.

The child finally slowed down after listening.Seeing that he was not feeling well, Qiu Laifu asked his own question again, "Is your adult?" The child shook his head.

"Then who did you come here with?" The child still shook his head.

"Then where is your home? I'll take you back." The child still shook his head.

Qiu Laifu was also dumbfounded, what's going on?Could it be that he did not understand. "can you understand what I am saying?"

This time the child nodded instead of shaking his head.It seems that there is nothing to ask.

Qiu Laifu put the bamboo raft back on the pier, went ashore, and walked towards the yamen servant who charged the management fee.

The yamen servant saw the child get on the bamboo raft.Qiu Laifu asked him, "Uncle, do you know this child's family?"

The yamen servant shook his head, "This kid has been wandering around here for a few days. When he first came here, his face was still bleeding, and he looked very scary. Every day, the master stutters and the west stutters.

It has been several days and no one has brought it back.Take it back if you want. "

Uh..., what's the situation, I didn't mean that, okay?
I am now a mud bodhisattva crossing the river and I cannot protect myself!Qiu Laifu returned to the bamboo raft sleepily.

"Can I follow you? I eat very little. I can also help you with work." The child looked at Qiu Laifu carefully and asked.

Looking at the little pitiful look, thinking that I am alone now, I feel a little sympathetic.

Why!Then accept him. "I want to leave here and go to a place far, far away, do you want to follow?"

The child nodded firmly.

"Okay, then you can follow me, first say yes, you are not allowed to cry when you are suffering."

The child nodded earnestly, "I'm not afraid of hardship." Qiu Laifu praised him in his heart for his small appearance.

Let's talk about the people Qiu Laifu met when he left the scene of the fire.When they put out the fire and searched for Qiu Laifu's body, they couldn't find it anywhere.

My heart skipped a beat, that's too bad!People ran away!Busy to report back to his master.

A mansion covering a large area, with a large plaque "Qiu Mansion" hanging in front of the door, the interior of the mansion is luxuriously decorated, with pavilions, towers, pavilions, rockery and flowing water, it is very grand.

In the flower hall of an exquisite courtyard, a woman with a head full of gold and jade sitting on the upper seat was furiously smashing the teacup at her side to one of the five kneeling people.

Hit a woman in a dark green dress.

The mother-in-law didn't dare to hide, and let the teacup hit her shoulder and then rolled to the ground, and the good official kiln porcelain was reimbursed in a blink of an eye.

The mother-in-law hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy, "Ma'am, please forgive me, we found the quilt soaked in water at the fire scene, and the left window was also open.

The window faced the lotus pond, and the eldest lady must have jumped into the lotus pond from that window to escape.

I have asked Liu Laoer to take someone to chase after her, but the eldest lady's foot was injured and she couldn't run fast.Will definitely catch up soon. "

This lady is Qiu Xiaofu's stepmother, and Qiu Xiaofu's mother was originally the mistress of the Qiu family.After his death, Qiu Xiaofu's father, Qiu Shunde, raised his favored concubine, his cousin, to be his second wife.

In the absence of a regular wife, Ping's wife became the head of the Qiu family.

The existence of the eldest lady is undoubtedly a constant reminder of the embarrassing status of this flat wife.

"It's best if you can get it back for me, or if you don't want to come back and kill it for me, it's fine. Make it clean." Mrs. Qiu, Mrs. Yan Qingping, said fiercely.

The five kneeling people hurriedly kowtowed, feeling relieved that their lives were saved.

However, Mrs. Qiu, who was seated in the seat, said again, "Today's affairs are messed up. Each person will be fined ten boards and three months of silver." The five people went down sadly to receive the punishment.

Qiu Laifu took the child to support the bamboo raft and went down the river. She didn't know that it wasn't long before she left the pier in He'an Town.There were a few people on the pier inquiring about her.

It's just that the inquiring person asked about the dumb little girl.But Qiu Laifu deliberately dressed himself up as a boy.Those who inquired about her naturally returned without success.

On the bamboo raft, the child sat quietly on the bundle of firewood, resting his chin on his hands and watching Qiu Laifu supporting the bamboo raft, staring at him without blinking.

Qiu Laifu looked at him a few times, and seeing him staring at him all the time, he didn't feel his eyes getting tired.Just joked, "Do you want to learn, kid?"

The kid nods. "Then I'll teach you in shallow water. How old are you? Do you have any relatives?"

"Six years old, mother died, the house and mother were burned." The child's eyes were full of tears but he couldn't let them flow out.

Seeing the child's stubborn appearance, Qiu Laifu's heart ached. "Your father?"

"I don't know. I haven't seen it before. Others call me a wild child." The child finally couldn't hold back and started crying.

Seeing him cry, Qiu Laifu wanted to cry too. He thought that the fate of his small body was the most pitiful.

But this child is even more pitiful.At any rate, the original owner of his body had enjoyed maternal love for a while.

Although he didn't enjoy the love of his father, he still had a father, a father who was a high official.

There was a father in the memory of the original owner, but he never hugged her, even if he saw her, he would just glance at her from a distance and then turn around and leave.

The original owner didn't understand why this father didn't like her?But Qiu Laifu could figure it out, it was just that she was a girl and couldn't speak, and she probably felt that having such a daughter was very embarrassing, so she was always reluctant to get close to her.These memories further prompted Qiu Laifu to leave.

Seeing that the child was almost crying, Qiu Laifu asked again, "Then what's your name?"

The child wiped away tears, "Wen Xiuze."

As he spoke, he took out a piece of jade pendant from his bosom. "Mother said that this jade pendant has my name on it."

Seeing the child's jade pendant, Qiu Laifu was stunned, wondering if jade is common in this world?Pick up any child who has a jade pendant on his body.

Qiu Laifu took the jade pendant and took a look. The jade was a high-quality mutton fat jade, which was cloud-shaped as a whole, with a tiger stepping on the cloud depicted on one side, and the carving was delicate and exquisite.On the other side, only "Xiuze" is written on the lower right corner.

According to the introduction of the classical novels that I occasionally read in my previous life, those who use jade to engrave their names to prove their identity have great family status.

Then this child's encounters may also be implicated by family status.

Qiu Laifu returned the jade pendant to the child, and told him carefully not to show the jade pendant to anyone, but to keep it carefully.This is something that proves his identity.It will be of great use in the future.

Qiu Laifu also gave a brief introduction to himself, and told him that he can just call himself big brother.

He also gave Wen Xiuze a common nickname, Huzi.Speaking of this, why does it feel a bit like the underworld gangster accepting younger brothers.

In the evening, the bamboo raft passed a small pier.In fact, it is not a pier, but a platform built with a few stones, and there is a path to walk up.

This pier is under a hill.There is a family on the mountainside, which is the reason why Qiu Laifu chose to stop. It was already dark in y day, and they couldn't sleep on the bamboo raft, so they wanted to resort to the farmer's house.

Along the way, only this family is located by the river.This pier may also be a few stones built by this family for their own convenience.

Qiu Laifu climbed up the mountainside with his tiger and came to this family.
