Chapter 60 You scared my guards
Tianxuan said, a few guards came over early in the morning and played with them, asking all kinds of questions about where they were from and what their parents did, come out. Is it to visit relatives or something else.
Because their elder brother Tianshu reminded them from time to time, they smiled and did not answer these questions.
That is, Xiao Yaoguang responded aloud, but all they said was, "I don't know."
After listening to this, Hong Xiaoduo thought about the scene at that time and burst into laughter without holding back. Xiao Yaoguang did not lie, because the questions asked by the guards, they were originally have no idea.
In other words, a group of grown men have been busy coaxing their children all morning without getting any reliable information.
Seeing several children looking up at her, waiting for her to tell her something: "It doesn't matter, they are not bad people, they are just out of curiosity and there is no malice."
Also Yes, when you have a meal together at noon, you don’t have to worry about whether you can hold the chopsticks well, whether you are good at eating, or whether you will be teased by them. Just eat what you want.
That elder is a good man and a good official, and he takes good care of us. Just remember their kindness in your heart.
You should also remember it when you meet the real one in the future. If you are in need of help, and you have the ability, lend a hand if you can, but you must have a brain, and you must not do good deeds blindly, but do what you can. ”
"Mom, we remember it." Tianshu took the lead in responding, and the other six nodded to show that they had remembered it.
The post house was in the wilderness and there were no shops to visit, so Hong Xiaoduo took them back to Xiaotongpu to rest.
With nothing to do, I simply continued to tell the children about Journey to the West.
"My dear lady, I said you and Mr. Wei will have lunch together, and we will send all the food over to the kitchen later." Yi Cheng looked around and saw that it was dinner time. If you haven't gone there, come over and see what's going on.
As a result, standing at the door, I heard that she was telling a story to the children.
The story is very interesting. At his age, he heard it halfway and wanted to continue listening. However, he still did not forget the main thing and reminded him kindly.
"Okay, thank you, uncle." Hong Xiaoduo thanked him loudly in the room.
Then he took the children to Mr. Wei's place, and met the guards who were looking for them halfway.
Hong Xiaoduo thought they were eating together because the guards were also following her. After all, she saw that there were several large round tables in a hall. Unexpectedly, lunch was arranged in a small hall with a table inside.
"Sorry to keep you waiting." Hong Xiaoduo said apologetically to Mr. Wei as he saw several dishes already placed on the table.
It's not that she doesn't have a sense of time. One is that she is too involved in telling stories to the children. The other is that she is not very skilled in judging time in ancient times. This moment made her think of a watch.
Even if the old man from the Science and Technology Museum could give her a watch, it would be fine if she kept it in the space, but she would not dare to wear it outside.
Who knows if she can return to modern times? If not, when archaeologists dig her tomb and see this watch, they will be fooled!
"It's okay, I've just come here, sit down quickly." Mr. Wei greeted.
A large round table and nine chairs, two of which had thick cushions.
"You two little guys, sit here, otherwise you won't be able to reach the food." Master Wei called to Kaiyang and Yaoguang to sit on the chairs covered with thick cushions.
Hong Xiaoduo smiled and stepped forward, carrying Xiao Yaoguang to a chair and sitting down.
After Tianshu sat down, he looked at the old man and then at Hong Xiaoduo, his little face tightened unconsciously. "Come on, come on, eat it while it's hot. This dish looks good and tastes good." Seeing that no one was moving their chopsticks, Mr. Wei quickly picked up his chopsticks and greeted them.
The children all looked at Hong Xiaoduo, and when they saw her nodding, they all picked up the chopsticks in front of them.
Because I had already sat and eaten with Mr. Wei the day before, I wasn't so reserved now. In addition, the old man is approachable and has no official airs at all, so the atmosphere at the dinner table is quite good.
The old man sat next to Kaiyang, and Hong Xiaoduo sat next to Yaoguang. Seeing her removing the fishbones for Yaoguang, he also took another pair of chopsticks to pick up the fish meat for Kaiyang, and picked it carefully. Fish bones.
"I like children very much?" Hong Xiaoduo has no rule of keeping his word.
Master Wei nodded, stood up, picked up the stewed pork ribs that were far away from the two children, and placed them in the bowl in front of the two children.
Tianshu’s hand holding the chopsticks tightened.
"Well, I'll be honest with you, little lady, I have only a few heirs in my family, with only three generations passed down. However, my only grandson, a few years ago, hey, let's not talk about it, just eat vegetables." Old Man Wei flashed past with sadness. .
Hong Xiaoduo finally understood why he was so close to these children.
I want to express my condolences, but it seems inappropriate, so I might as well say nothing at all.
Tianquan and Tianji, who were closest to Tianshu, heard the crunching sound of the brittle bones in their elder brother's mouth and couldn't help but look at him secretly. Isn't there meat in this? Don't eat the hard and brittle bones. It feels weird to hear this sound.
"My dear lady, you scared my guards quite a bit." Mr. Wei picked up the wine cup, took a sip and smiled.
Hong Xiaoduo was a little confused. Why was he so frightened? Was it just because he was using a whip? It’s not such an exaggeration!
"The children say you are their mother, their biological mother." Mr. Wei looked at the children in a circle and smiled.
Ah, this is scary!
Hong Xiaoduo also smiled: "Then you don't believe it based on the old man's tone?"
Master Wei looked at her and shook his head: "They are all so naive that they even guessed whether you were Disguised.”
When Hong Xiaoduo heard this, he laughed so hard that his shoulders shook. He pinched his cheeks and said, "Then they didn't say that I have so many children, and I still pretend to be a young girl in disguise, so I'm shameless?"
< br>Old man Wei smiled and shook his head : "That's not the case. I know it's inappropriate to ask around when we meet by chance, but I still want to ask, who are they to you?"
Hong Xiaoduo thought about it and felt that it would be inappropriate to tell this old man the truth. Tighten up.
“I picked them up on the road. They are all homeless orphans.” When Hong Xiaoduo said this, he saw the children’s expressions were different and quickly added: “They call me mother. , we are a family now.”
Sure enough, after saying this, the children began to concentrate on cooking again.
When Mr. Wei heard that this was what happened, and then thought about the reason why the children shaved their heads, there was nothing else he didn't understand.
How could homeless orphans and neglected children picked up on the road not infest their bodies with lice?
Looking at Hong Xiaoduo next to him, he said with awe in his face: "I admire the little lady for her great righteousness and kindness. However, their words should not lead, right?"
As soon as this question was asked, several little guys who were eating raised their heads and looked towards Hong Xiaoduo...
