My filial piety has deteriorated, so I have no choice but to be a rebellious disciple

Although it is also possible to knock on the door and ask Li Bo to open the door, firstly, she is too embarrassed to disturb his old man's sleep because of her late return; Bloody head.

She looked up at the height of the wall and took a few steps back.

Then he came to the bottom of the wall with a sprint, jumped forward, tapped the wall with his toes, and turned over very lightly like a bird, even landing without making a sound.

Zheng Si'er secretly clenched her fists in joy.

perfect!

Just as she was about to sneak back to her room in the dark, a slender shadow came towards her.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

"Hush! Ah Huang, it's me! Don't bark!"

What rushed over was a skinny yellow dog with several bald patches of hair on its body. It barked twice as it rushed over, and when it got closer, it turned out to be an acquaintance.

Ah Huang spun around at Zheng Si'er's feet, his tail wagging almost out of sight.

"who is it?"

An old voice came, accompanied by a dim firelight gradually approaching in the darkness.

Uncle Li bowed his body, supported a wooden stick in one hand, and held a half candle in the other, and limped towards Zheng Si'er.

He raised the candle in his hand, his eyes blurred into a slit, and after seeing Zheng Si'er's appearance clearly, he suddenly said:

"It's Xiaoque, why are you back so late?"

Zheng Si'er squatted on the ground and stroked Ah Huang's hair, raised her head and smiled awkwardly at Uncle Li, her face was half bright and half dark under the light of the candle.

"I saw someone bullying a child outside. I couldn't help it, so I went to help, but I was knocked unconscious."

"Ouch! Are you okay then?"

Both of Li Bo's eyes were widened. He walked forward and looked at Zheng Sirer up and down to see if she was injured.

"It's okay, it's okay! Please don't worry!"

Zheng Sirer stood up from the ground, twisted her waist and arms in front of Uncle Li with a smile.

"Look, I'm fine!"

"It's fine..."

Uncle Li nodded lightly, and seemed to think of something again, and asked:

"Are you hungry? There are probably some leftovers in the kitchen. I knew you hadn't come back, so I didn't lock it."

"Thank you Uncle Li!"

Zheng Si'er originally planned to go to bed on an empty stomach, but after listening to Li Bo's words, a warm feeling surged in her heart.

"Go, go, don't be so late in the future."

"understood!"

The stick in Li Bo's hand picked Ah Huang, who was still wagging his tail, and he turned around and walked slowly back to the house with him.

After Uncle Li left, Zheng Si'er first ran to the kitchen in the dark.

She searched for a while on the stove, found a plain steamed stuffed bun that had been too cold for a long time, swallowed it in a few mouthfuls, and scooped a few scoops of clear water in the water tank next to it, gurgling fiercely. I took a few mouthfuls.

After eating and drinking, Zheng Si'er ran back to the dormitory familiarly, and opened the door. Inside was a simple Datong bunk, sleeping rows of orphans like Zheng Si'er.

But despite being poor, men and women still sleep in separate rooms.

Zheng Si'er fumbled for a while, and found the core position of her boss identity, lay down with her clothes on, and fell asleep directly.

The next morning.

After the cock crowed a few times, a very annoying and noisy female voice sounded.

boom! boom! boom!

The door was knocked loudly.

"Get up! Don't you want to see what time it is?"

The door opened, and a short, fat middle-aged woman walked in.

She was wearing a bright red and green dress, with stubby fingers and a completely invisible neck.

"Did you hear that! If you don't get up, you won't have any food!"

The orphans had long been accustomed to this, and one after another got up from their bunks on the ground amidst the rough noise, including Zheng Sier.

"Hey! Brother Bird? When did you come back?"

An orphan next to Zheng Si'er found her, so he asked curiously.

She replied smoothly while kneeling on the ground and folding the quilt.

"Come back last night."

"I thought you ran away! What did Brother Que do last night?"

The little girl on the other side got dressed and joined the conversation.

"Why did I run away? Yesterday I saw a little beggar being bullied, so I helped her."

"As expected of Brother Que! The leader of our hospital! Take action whenever there is injustice on the road!"

The girl next to her gave her a thumbs up. After all, Zheng Si'er is not very old, so she still enjoys this kind of compliment.

She smiled complacently.

"That's right! Don't even look at who I am!"

Amidst the chirping, the girls all got dressed, arranged their bedding, and went out together to the dining place.

The canteen is as simple as ever.

The tables and chairs inside are old, most of them have been used for who knows how many years. The four wooden legs are of different lengths, making it wobbly when you sit on them.

But it's been used wisely, and the food here is still good.

Each person has a bowl of thin porridge and even a steamed bun with plain filling.

"There are buns in the morning? Is it so good?"

Zheng Sirer looked at the food on the table with a surprised expression.

The little girl beside her nodded, with a bun stuffed in her mouth, she mumbled:

"Someone is going to leave recently, Brother Que, you probably will be soon."

"That's great! I want to be taken away too!"

The little girl's eyes were full of envy.

For everyone in the orphanage, it is the best thing to have a home.

But here people must be of a certain age to be allowed to be adopted

This rule is very strange, Zheng Si'er has never been able to understand, if he was taken away when he was young, wouldn't he still be able to save a few years of food?

"Brother Que, don't you eat buns?"

The sharp-eyed little girl noticed that Zheng Si'er was only focused on drinking the porridge, but didn't take a bite of the steamed stuffed bun next to her, so her eyes lit up, and she eagerly stretched out her hand.

"What a beautiful idea! I want to keep this and give it away!"

Zheng Si'er slapped the thief's hand lightly, and stuffed the buns on the table into her arms.

Extra Story of Zheng Sier ([-])

After breakfast, seeing that the mean Aunt Wang was not there, Zheng Si'er slipped out of the backyard directly.

Children in orphanages originally had things to do.

The men go to the fields, and the women weave clothes. Although they are a little younger, they can help anyway. There are no people who eat rice in the courtyard.

The main reason why Zheng Si'er was able to hang around outside at will and do some things of her own was because she was the leader of this group of children.

In the hands of outsiders, she has beaten away all kinds of ruffians more than once. She is not only loyal but also fair. When the children in the yard see her, they all call out "Brother Que" in admiration.

The children who were helped by her rushed to do the work that Zheng Sier should do, and she herself had nothing to do.

There were not many small rivers running through the city in the northern city, so she easily found the bridge where Lian'er took her last night.

Before she could walk in, she heard the sound of brushing and scratching coming from under the bridge hole.

A small figure was bending over and squatting by the small river, busy with something.

"Pity?"

Zheng Si'er called out suspiciously.

The ragged little person turned around immediately, she raised her arm to wipe the sweat from her head, and said in surprise:

"Sister, you are here!"

Zheng Si'er walked forward with a smile, took out the leftover plain steamed stuffed bun from her bosom, and asked:

"What are you doing so early in the morning?"

Lian'er looked at the white bread in Zheng Si'er's hand, her eyes twinkled.

But she didn't rush to get it, but pointed to a black rock in front of her, on which lay the sword that Zheng Si'er picked up yesterday.

"I'm helping my sister sharpen her sword!"

Zheng Si'er smiled dumbly, and handed the bun in front of Lian'er.

"What are you grinding this thing for? I was going to sell it. No! Baozi!"

Lian'er shook her head and said:

"What a pity to sell it to the scrap iron collector! If you can remove the rust on it and sell it directly as a new sword, then it will be worth a lot!"

While she was talking, her eyes never left the bun in Zheng Sirer's hand.

Lian'er put her dirty little hands on the clothes that were no different from rags and wiped them repeatedly, then reached out to take the buns from Zheng Si'er, and then yelled in a sweet voice:

"Thank you sister!"

Zheng Sirer waved her hand and walked to the sword bar and stone.

She bent down to pick up the sword blade on the stone, and found that the rust on the top had indeed been worn off a bit, revealing the silver fine iron blade underneath.

"It seems to make sense."

If he just took this sword blade to the blacksmith shop and sold it as scrap iron, it would still be a little short of the copper coins he needed to buy a crutch.

But if you sell it at the price of a new sword, not only will it be more than enough, but you can even have a lot of extra silver to buy some candied fruits for the brothers and sisters in the courtyard.

"Lian'er, you are so smart!"

Zheng Si'er touched Lian'er's little head beside her.

Lian Er laughed hey.

She carefully put the vegetarian steamed stuffed bun into her bosom, took out half of the white flour steamed bun from last night, and ate it with small mouthfuls of the river water.

And Zheng Si'er squatted by the river with her, sharpening the sword in her hand on the black rock.

"By the way, how did you think about what you said yesterday?"

Zheng Si'er asked casually.

And Lian'er beside her also fell into silence, and after a long while, she opened her mouth and said:

"Although grandpa didn't let me go there before...but if my sister is here, Lian'er can go with me."

"Great!"

Zheng Si'er cheered, and then patted Lian'er's thin shoulder generously.

"From then on, we will be brothers who worship the master. After entering the orphanage, we will be a family!"

"You can just call me Brother Que from now on. In the west of the city, I'll cover you!"

Lian Er tilted her head a little dazed.
