The door of the room was opened from the inside, and the boys inside had already prepared their burdens and joined the army in an orderly manner.
Zheng Si'er led them to the main entrance.
I saw a string of thick and long chains hanging on the door, but it was only hung in vain, and it was not locked.
Li Bo really did what he said!
Zheng Si'er was overjoyed, and was about to reach out to relieve it, when she heard a playful female voice behind her.
"If you don't sleep so late, where are you going?"
Zhongzhou is famous
Extra Story of Zheng Sier ([-])
Hearing this familiar voice, Zheng Sirer felt that her hands and feet were cold, and her whole body felt like she had fallen into an ice cave, as if she had been splashed with cold water from head to toe in the cold December winter.
She turned her head extremely stiffly, and found that Aunt Wang, who was supposed to be asleep, was leaning on the pillar and looking at them sarcastically.
"Aunt Wang hasn't slept yet?"
Zheng Si'er forced a little smile.
Aunt Wang frowned impatiently and walked slowly toward the crowd.
"I'm asking you something, little sparrow! It's so late, where do you want to take them?"
Zheng Si'er didn't have the time to answer Aunt Wang's question at all.
Normally, she would still have a playful smile, but now she only cares about looking around in the crowd behind her.
who is it?
Who broke the news?
The only outsider who knows is probably Uncle Li, isn't it?
Uncle Li's kind and kind smile appeared in her mind, and when Zheng Si'er was thinking wildly, Xiao Zhizhi, who had been standing by the side, came out.
She lowered her head deeply and clenched her hands in front of her, like a child who has done something wrong.
"Brother Que, I'm sorry, it's better to stay than let everyone starve to death outside together. I...I have already persuaded you!"
"You little sesame!"
Zheng Si'er clenched her fists and glared at Xiao Zhizhi.
She never thought that the traitor would be among her own people.
Little Zhizhi didn't dare to face Zheng Si'er's burning eyes, so she lowered her head even lower.
All the children in the orphanage looked at Aunt Wang in great panic. After all, she was not a good person. What kind of punishment awaited them and others?
Aunt Wang slowly walked to the gate that was wrapped in iron chains.
Her fat and broad body blocked everyone's way, and then she put her hands on her hips and asked Zheng Si'er:
"Are you deaf? I ask you where you want to take everyone so late?"
Everyone took a few steps back in fear, but Zheng Sier stood up.
She used her small body to stand in front of everyone, raised her immature and unyielding face, and said angrily:
"Anyway, it's not going to be a brothel!"
Zheng Sier secretly tensed her body. Although she was discovered by Aunt Wang, she believed that with her ability, a mere woman could not block her way.
Aunt Wang snorted contemptuously.
"Do you know how chaotic the world is outside? You are penniless and carry so many burdens. You can't walk ten miles, and you are destined to starve to death on the way."
"That's better than being sold to a brothel!"
Zheng Si'er repeated firmly.
"Yo! You really have a backbone! I just wonder if you can stand up and say such things when you are hungry?"
Aunt Wang suddenly reached out to touch her back, and then threw a bundle wrapped in black cloth at them.
When the bundle fell to the ground, there was a clattering sound of metal crashing inside, which was crisp and pleasant.
"If you want to go, then go and take these things with you."
Zheng Si'er was taken aback for a moment, then squatted down and untied the rope on the burden.
She slowly unfolded the black cloth, and her pupils shrank instantly. Inside were four or five large silver ingots and seven or eight strings of copper coins.
Zheng Si'er stared at the silver coins in it for a long time, and couldn't believe her eyes.
"This is......"
She raised her head in puzzlement to look at Aunt Wang who was full of flesh and fierce.
"My old lady managed to get a job in the government by relying on her younger brother. Who would have thought that she would be used as a cow and a horse for someone else, and would do such a detrimental thing."
Aunt Wang waved impatiently.
"I don't want to do it anymore. You can leave if you want. These silver taels are my savings for more than ten years. My mother died, her husband died and my son died. I don't need these. When you leave the city and change places, this money Enough money for you to open a small shop."
Zheng Si'er looked at Aunt Wang speechless for a long time.
She never thought that Aunt Wang, who was usually violent and violent and reprimanded corporal punishment, had such a compassionate side.
"Why are you looking at me? Why don't you get out of here?"
"But... Aunt Wang, what will you do in the future?"
"What should I do in the future? I have a younger brother and a family, so I don't need you little orphans to worry about it."
"But won't the government make things difficult for you?"
"Why are you worrying about so many things, brat? I've already disliked you, so hurry up and get out!"
Aunt Wang turned around and pulled the iron chain on the door.
The chains fell to the ground in a heap, and the gate of the orphanage opened.
Zheng Si'er re-tied the burden on the ground and carried it on her back.
She led twenty or so orphans out of the courtyard gate, looking back, under the quiet moonlight, only the fat and bloated Aunt Wang stood alone in the gate.
Aunt Wang crossed her arms and looked at them with disgust.
Zheng Si'er only felt her nose sore, and her eye sockets became moist, as if something was about to come out of her sockets.
She knelt down towards Aunt Wang inside the door with a plop, then kowtowed three times on the ground, and the children behind her followed suit.
Aunt Wang seemed to snort coldly with great disdain, and then closed the door heavily.
Not to mention Zheng Si'er, even that little sesame was at a loss because of Aunt Wang's change.
She looked at Zheng Si'er helplessly, and said timidly:
"Brother Bird... I was wrong."
Zheng Si'er remained silent, she hated traitors the most, so she simply turned her head and ignored her.
Lian Er grabbed Zheng Sier's left hand in shock, and looked back at the silent orphanage under the moon with some reluctance. As the people gradually moved away, it became smaller and smaller.
She pursed her lips and said with a bit of aggrieved voice:
"It's hard to get a home, but now I'm going to be displaced again."
Zheng Si'er touched her petite head, and comforted her softly:
"It's okay. We'll find another place to settle down after we leave the city."
"But bro, where are we going now?"
Zheng Sirer looked at the endless dark streets at night and couldn't help but feel confused.
Yes, where should I go?
They don't even know where the nearest county seat is.
Just when Zheng Sirer was confused, a red light slowly lit up from the darkness, getting closer and closer.
She was startled at first, could it be that she ran into a watchman in charge of the curfew?
But the sound of the gong was not heard, and while Zheng Sirer was still confused, the figure holding the red lantern gradually became clearer.
It turned out that the man was Uncle Li, who was walking towards them with a stick in one hand and a lantern in the other.
"Little Queer, are you out?"
Uncle Li waved at them.
Zheng Si'er hurried up and waved to Uncle Li.
"That's right, Aunt Wang let us out and even gave us money for the journey. I never thought she was such a good person!"
Uncle Li nodded slightly with a smile, tapped the wooden stick in his hand to the ground, and murmured:
"I just knew it... I just knew it...."
Zheng Si'er bowed deeply to Uncle Li.
"Of course, I still have to thank Uncle Li,"
Li Bo smiled and waved his hands again and again.
"It's a small matter." Then he asked, "So where are you planning to go next?"
Zheng Si'er shook her head blankly.
Li Bo seemed to have expected this answer.
"It's okay. Since you haven't made any plans, just follow me and go to a safer place."
Zheng Si'er looked happy, nodded quickly, and called the brothers and sisters behind him to walk forward together.
A group of people arrived outside a tall courtyard. The tall stone wall made of bricks and stones was as high as two people.
Zheng Si'er couldn't help asking curiously: "Where is this place?"
Uncle Li bent down and walked in the front, and replied with a smile:
"Here, this is the kind-hearted family. They will take you in temporarily."
As Li Bo spoke, he walked to the gate.
He grabbed the pull ring held in the mouth of the copper animal head on the door, and knocked twice on the wooden door.
The door slowly opened inward, and it was pitch black inside, making it impossible to see clearly.
There was a person standing inside, and he asked Uncle Li in a low voice, "Did the person bring it?"
"I brought them all, not a lot."
The man turned and walked inside and waved his hand.
"Okay, then come in."
Zheng Si'er frowned slightly, only feeling that the voice was familiar.
But Uncle Li was here, she didn't think too much, and directly led the crowd across the calf-high gate, into the tall courtyard.
Walking into the courtyard, the floor was covered with blue bricks. Without taking a few steps forward, suddenly there were blazing torches on the left and right, and fourteen or fifteen people in police uniforms quickly surrounded them.
The leading man laughed loudly and patted Li Bo's shoulder beside him.
"That's right, thanks to your old bones, there is no good thing that has ruined the magistrate."
Under the light of the fire, Zheng Si'er could see the man's face clearly.
Isn't this the man in official clothes who appeared in Aunt Wang's room last night!
Li Bo had a flattering smile on his face, bowed his knees and said:
"The official is so complimentary."
