As soon as Pei Yu'an came back, Li Sisi pulled him to their yard and said, "Brother Pei, come with me to see Xiaoying. When we were giving her a bath just now, we found that she had many wounds on her body."
Pei Yuan followed her, carrying a medicine box: "Xiaoying is the girl you bought today?"
"Yes, Nian Nian thought she was so small and pitiful, so she bought her."
While the two were talking, they had already arrived at Li Nian's room.
The little girl, who was dirty before, washed herself and changed into clean clothes, but her hair was still loose, but the blood clots stuck to her hair were almost cleaned off.
Pei Yu'an was slightly stunned when he saw the little girl. What could these two sisters do by buying such a little girl?
Li Sisi pulled up Xiaoying's sleeves, revealing the shocking scars.
"She has the same injury. Just prescribe medicine for her," Li Sisi said anxiously.
Li Sisi's bright eyes were filled with anger. She had previously thought that the little girl was too thin, but she didn't expect that such a tender body would be beaten so badly by that boy!
These people are simply insane. How could they have the heart to do such harm to such a young child!
Pei Yuan examined the little girl carefully, his frown gradually relaxing. "Fortunately, these are just superficial injuries, with no damage to the internal organs. I'll go back and prepare the medicine and bring it to you later."
Li Sisi thought about paying for the medicine and stood up quickly: "I'll go with you."
Pei Yu'an was naturally very happy to be able to stay with Li Sisi, and agreed with a gentle smile.
The two walked side by side through the front yard. Li Sisi accompanied Pei Yu'an to the room to get something, and then continued talking as they went out.
Pei Yanli looked at the intimacy between the two and felt inexplicably unhappy. He simply turned away and went back to his room to read.
He held the book in his hand, but he couldn't concentrate on reading it.
His mind was full of the image of Li Sisi and his younger brother, a perfect match.
"call."
With a slight sigh, Pei Yanli irritably threw the books he usually cherished onto the table, opened the door and went to the street to get some fresh air.
It happened that when I went out, I met two people walking back.
Li Sisi greeted with a smile: "Boss, are you going out for a walk?"
Pei Yanli said "hmm" with a cold face and passed by them without looking at them.
Li Sisi curled her lips and muttered softly, "Who made him angry again?"
Pei Yu'an looked sideways in confusion and asked, "How do you know my brother is angry?"
"That's what he looks like when he's angry!" Li Sisi looked puzzled. "Can't you feel it? It's obvious when he's angry!"
Pei Yuan remained silent. Feeling? Could he tell his brother was angry just by feeling? Was Sisi and his brother already so familiar with each other?
Even he, his younger brother, felt that his elder brother had a cold and serious personality, and often could not guess what his elder brother was thinking.
Maybe I'm overthinking it! Pei Yuan comforted himself.
After returning, Li Nian helped Xiaoying apply medicine and boil the medicine. Li Sisi and Pei Yu'an helped Xiaoying get a small bed in the vacant utility room.
There are limited houses in the Pei family's side yard, so Xiaoying can only live there temporarily. Later, when they move to a bigger house, they will arrange a room for her.
————
The autumn in the northwest is getting colder every night. The north wind is blowing so hard that it hurts my face, but Li Nian stands in the night wind with excitement on his face and knocks on the door of Li Sisi's room.
Li Sisi opened the door and saw that it was Li Nian. She quickly pulled her into the house and complained, "Why are you here so late at night? What if you get blown away by the wind?"
She was not talking nonsense. She didn't know why the northwest wind was so strong, especially the north wind at night, which could be fatal.
A few days ago, the government office received a case. It was said that a child went out at night and was blown away by the wind, and he has not been found yet!
Li Nian stared at Li Sisi as she closed the door, her fair face filled with excitement. "It's arrived! The system's fake body has arrived!"
Li Sisi's eyes lit up when she heard that, and she lowered her voice excitedly and asked, "How much banknotes did Xiao Yunyu give you?"
"See for yourself!" Li Nian said, and asked the system to put the fake body on the ground.
A dazzling light shot out from the open mouth of the fake body, causing the four eyes that were used to the darkness to squint uncomfortably.
Li Sisi whispered, "What the hell is this?"
After the two of them got used to it for a while, Li Sisi bravely squatted next to the fake body and reached out to pick out the thing in her mouth.
Li Nian asked uncertainly, "Could it be a night-shining pearl?"
Li Sisi exclaimed in surprise, "Huh?" and observed it carefully for a long time before saying, "I don't know. We haven't seen what a night-shining pearl looks like. In the past, Duoduo sold those pearls for 9.9 yuan with free shipping, and they also glowed at night."
Li Nian: …
"Then let's use it as a light bulb, so we can illuminate the fake body and other things." Li Nian said as his hand reached into the shroud.
When my fingers touched something that looked like a stack of paper, my breathing stopped and my heart started beating fast with nervousness.
After untying the shroud, Li Nian carefully took out the stack of banknotes.
Li Sisi excitedly held up the Night Pearl and approached, whispering, "Look at how much money there is!"
Li Nian carefully examined them in the light of the night pearl. They were all silver notes worth one hundred taels each. She counted them carefully, her eyes brightening more and more. "Fuck, forty-nine!"
Li Sisi asked in confusion: "Why forty-nine?"
"Maybe it's because of the 49 days? Maybe there's something special about that?" Li Nian answered uncertainly.
The doubt lasted only a moment, and then came surprise: "Four thousand nine hundred taels! My monthly salary is only two taels, which is 24 taels a year. I would have to work for 204 years to earn that much!"
"That's not all." Li Nian reminded: "The system said that as long as it doesn't belong to the system, we can take it away."
The two men simultaneously looked towards the fake body on the ground, took a deep breath, and only one thought came to their minds: "I'm going to get rich!"
As they dug up the burial objects from the fake body, they exclaimed, "We've made a fortune! We've made a fortune! Gold rings, gold hairpins, gold-inlaid jade earrings..."
Seeing that Li Sisi had almost been stripped, Li Nian said, "I think her burial clothes are quite valuable. They are finely crafted. And according to Xiao Yunyu's preferences, he likes clothes embroidered with gold or silver thread."
Li Sisi's eyes sparkled as she stared at the brocade embroidery on the shroud, which shone with a cold glow. She asked softly, "Then should we take off the shroud as well?"
Li Nian nodded and responded, "Strip it off. The system doesn't want it anyway."
"Okay!"
Only after the two stripped off their fake bodies did Li Nian let the system take them away.
The ground was littered with gold, silver, jewelry, and banknotes, as if someone had just returned from a tomb robbery and divided the loot.
Li Sisi said with great regret, "If I had known earlier, I would have left a message and asked for more burial objects!"
Li Nian, however, felt very satisfied: "These should be enough for us to use for a lifetime. This is the first time I think Xiao Yunyu is a really good person!"
