Xie Ling looked at the woman and said, "I will give you a task. I will give you some supplies. You will join the Qingshan Gang with the supplies and help me investigate the situation. But the prerequisite is that you have to leave your son as a hostage with me. Are you willing?"
This woman dared to come up and grab the food, which shows she is brave.
Being able to share food with strangers during a flood shows that you have a kind heart.
And by detaining her son here, there is no need to worry that she will betray him.
The woman answered almost without thinking, "I do!"
Xie Ling nodded, "Okay. From now on, you come to the back mountain and wait every three days. Someone from our side will take over from you."
The woman nodded vigorously, her eyes full of excitement.
"Don't worry! I will do my best! I will never betray you! By the way."
The woman's eyes were full of new expectations and hope. She curved her eyes at Xie Ling, and in an instant, she looked like a spring flower blooming. "My name is Qianniang. Thank you."
Xie Ling took out a few bags of rice from Jinguan and handed over a bottle of medicine.
"I wipe the wound once every night. Although it's not deep, it's easy to get infected because of the hot weather."
Qianniang took it, looked at her child deeply, and quietly disappeared into the forest.
The woman from the Bai family brought Qianniang's child over and wiped the dirt off his face without thinking it was dirty.
Ask: "What is your name?"
The little boy was a little scared and his legs were shaking.
But he still whispered: "My name is Mingchen."
The Bai family woman nodded and smiled gently, "Mingchen, it's a good name!"
Under the woman's gentle care, Xiao Mingchen's fear gradually faded away.
He apologized to the people around him, "I'm sorry."
Everyone sighed and said that it seemed that this mother and son were not bad people.
This child is also very sensible and polite.
Alas, it’s all because of this hateful natural disaster and chaotic times...I don’t know when it will end.
There was no time to eat, so Gu Wei took the men to drive piles.
Looks like we need to build the wall quickly!
Although these refugees are not very strong in combat, there are many of them and it would be quite troublesome if they rioted.
Pei was boiling water, planning to give the child a bath and change his clothes, as he was really dirty.
Little Mingchen was very scared at first, but he gradually calmed down under the gentleness of the female relatives.
Seeing that he had changed into clean clothes, Xie Ling went over to him and asked, "You and your mother depend on each other for survival, so where is your father?"
Now that the mother and daughter are considered part of her camp, of course she has to find out their backgrounds and identities.
It can't be unclear.
Xiao Mingchen's eyes were cold, "He's dead."
There was no sadness at all like a child facing the death of his father.
Xie Ling frowned, "How did he die?"
Little Mingchen tilted his head, "My mother killed him. My father was too hungry and wanted to cook me for his concubine, so my mother killed him."
The people around were shocked.
Xie Ling was also a little surprised, "What about the concubine?"
"The concubine ran away. I don't know where she went."
After that, Xiao Mingchen hurriedly explained, "Mom is not a bad person. Dad is really bad to us. He beats Mom and me every day. We were almost beaten to death. He deserves to die."
Xie Ling touched his head and said, "Yes. He deserves to die."
I sighed in my heart, Qianniang is such a cruel person.
But she likes this kind of person!
After asking clearly, Xie Ling turned her gaze to the woman from the Bai family whom she had rescued earlier.
The woman from the Bai family was very smart. When she saw that Xie Ling had something to say to her, she obediently stood up and walked to a tree in the distance.
"Girl, just speak your mind."
Xie Ling took out a jade pendant from the space and placed it in front of her.
"Do you recognize this jade pendant?"
Her eyes were broken and tears welled up in her eyes. The usually gentle and polite woman burst into tears and had no manners at all.
Hoarse voice.
"This is a token of love between me and my late husband."
Xie Ling sighed, "We found this at the Bai family shipyard when we went to Qing Town to search for supplies. By the way, I dragged his body back and buried it where I found you. Do you want to go and see it?"
The woman knelt down in front of Xie Ling and kowtowed repeatedly, "Thank you! Thank you for letting my late husband rest in peace! Maybe fate has its own plan. When he was alive, this mountain was his favorite..."
Xie Ling took the woman to the grave of her late husband.
Along the way, Xie Ling learned from the woman that her name was Jiang Wanyi and her late husband was Bai Qingzhou.
The two were childhood sweethearts and had a deep affection for each other.
On the day Leng Hu came to the Bai family, Bai Qingzhou hid Jiang Wanyi and the child in a hidden warehouse, and they escaped.
But in order to protect his mother and daughter, Bai Qingzhou didn't have time to hide in the warehouse and was killed by Leng Hu with a single knife.
Before he died, he held tightly onto their token of love.
The man comes riding on a bamboo horse and plays with green plums around the bed.
They had originally agreed to grow old together, but now Jiang Wanyi is the only one left.
The green grass is deep and is blown up and down by the wind.
It's a rare good day today, the sky is sunny and the blue sky is clear.
Jiang Wanyi lay on Bai Qingzhou's grave, crying heart-wrenchingly.
The wind blew across her cheeks, as if wiping her tears.
"Xie Ling, you may not believe this, but this is where we got engaged. Five years ago, this was a field of flourishing irises, and it looked extremely beautiful. He brought me here, gave me a jade pendant, and said he wanted to marry me.
I am just a humble concubine's daughter, and my elder sister is deeply in love with him. I have never dared to hope to be with him.
But he said that he only loved me, and would rather break up with his family and start his own business with nothing than to marry me as his legal wife. Why, why did it happen like this? He was so good, so kind, and would take home kittens on the street, how could he die so tragically…"
Xie Ling sighed, hugged Jiang Wanyi and patted her back.
"I have killed the man who killed him, so I have avenged him. He has only gone to the next world to set up your new home. Live well, and life must go on."
Jiang Wanyi cried and cried until her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
Xie Ling carried her back.
On the way back, Xie Ling discovered that the people in the cave to the left of her own cave were actually rescuing refugees.
Xie Ling had an impression of that family.
When she made spicy rabbit head before, the man of the house came to buy it, but she didn’t sell it.
The family's surname seemed to be Liu. Xie Ling had a good impression of them. They were quite kind people.
One time, Ru Jieer fell down while playing with a group of other kids, and it was the Liu family who helped to bring her back.
Xie Ling frowned and walked over to remind him, "The refugees are very dangerous. I suggest you don't get too close to them."
The old lady of the Liu family snorted, "We are a kind family. We are not like some families who beat people with a dozen whips just for eating! I am scared just by hearing that sound."
It seems that when Xie Ling was punishing Qianniang today, the Liu family was also watching the fun.
Xie Ling was not angry.
Now that I have said this, it doesn’t matter if others don’t believe it.
She just gave it a casual reminder out of gratitude for the time they saved Ru Jie'er.
Everyone has his own destiny.
She can't control it, and doesn't want to control it.
