Chapter 3 It's a Good Guess
Li hesitated for a moment, "When Hou Pingxi died, your grandmother and your mother were also killed by a traitor. I was the eldest maid next to your mother at that time. I was afraid that something would happen to you, so I stole you with your father. We dared not stay in the capital, so we took you to hide incognito."
"Is my father the one who killed my mother?" As soon as Ye Anlan said this, the silent needle in the cave was heard.
Ye Anlan pressed his eyebrows and said, "This is easy to guess, but don't worry, I won't rush over to seek revenge immediately. Of course, if I have a chance in the future, I promise that I will let him pay his blood debts."
Li:...
Li was a little helpless. She wanted to say that she didn't mean that. She never thought of letting Ye Anlan kill her father. She stole Ye Anlan in order to save the last trace of blood left by her lady.
But before she could speak, Ye Anlan had already added with a calm expression, "There is also my grandmother's revenge, you can also help her remember it first."
Li:...
After a while of being stunned, Li could only attribute Ye Anlan's reaction to the only bloodline left by the old marquis in this world. Even if he was raised in the countryside, his decisive killing in his bones would still be unmatched by others.
In the afternoon, Ye Jinkui took Ye Anlan with a gray face on his face to the town. The two of them first went to the clinic and sold the herbs that Ye Anlan dug up to the doctor in the clinic, and then went to the market to sell the pheasant and hares that Ye Jinkui had hunted.
It took a lot of time to sell pheasants and hares. When the two came out of the market, the sun had already been covered by the distant mountains.
Ye Jinkui didn't dare to delay any more. He ran to the grain store to buy some rice and flour. The father and daughter walked out of the town with baskets on their backs and walked out of the sunset.
Not far from the two of them walked out of the town, seven tall and big young men chased them.
"father."
"Yeah, I know."
Ye Anlan and Ye Jinkui stopped, Ye Jinkui took out a hatchet from the basket, and Ye Anlan picked up a few stones.
The gangsters obviously didn't expect Ye Jinkui and Ye Anlan to resist. The leader's scarred face looked fierce, "You dare to show your grandfather, you can do it. Brothers, come on, give me an arm to let him teach you a lesson."
Ye Anlan frowned, and the stone in his hand smashed at the gangsters accurately.
"Ouch!" Several gangsters were hit on the forehead, teeth, temples, elbows, and knees one after another... Amid the sound of oh, Ye Jinkui holding the hatchet looked confused.
Who is he? Where is he? What is he going to do with his knife?
"Dad?" Ye Anlan kicked and struggled to come over, holding a knife to poke her scarred face, "Don't stand there, these people are not dead yet."
Other gangsters who were one step later than Scarface:...Diet?
He glanced at Ye Anlan's powerful little feet, then looked at his own boss who was lying on the ground and was ignorant of life and death. Several gangsters looked at each other, and then turned their feet honestly.
Turn around, speed up, lift up his boss, and sprinted directly without looking back.
Ye Anlan:...
Ye Anlan Erkang, "Hey—Don't run away—"
It would be fine if she didn't shout, but when she shouted, the gangsters immediately ran faster.
Ye Jinkui:...it's outrageous.
He asked Ye Anlan, "Yuanniang, you, call them..." He couldn't really want to kill all these gangsters, right?
Ye Anlan understood Ye Jinkui's desire to say something, "Don't worry, I just want to charge them some mental damages."
"What, what's the fee?"
"Scared compensation." Ye Anlan changed his statement, "We can't just rob them for nothing, right? The scarred face said that he wanted to remove one of your arms."
Ye Jinkui:...Is it "unloading"? How did he remember it is "borrowing"? Shouldn't "borrowing" mean discounts? He has a sense of picture when it comes to "unloading" and other things...
"Forget it, let them go this time."
Ye Anlan was afraid that they would go back too late and that Li and others would be in danger. You should know that their family is now living in the mountain.
Of course, the most important thing is that she just sold herbal medicines and was not very short of money. She robbed or something, so there is no need to be particularly anxious.
The father and daughter hurried home with the things they bought and carrying the remaining copper plates on their backs.
However, God seemed to deliberately delay their pace. After about two quarters of an hour, Ye Jinkui tripped under his feet and almost threw himself to the ground.
At this time, they were less than half a quarter of an hour away from the foot of the mountain. The two of them originally wanted to take a shortcut to the grove, but Ye Jinkui kicked out a corpse.
Taking advantage of Ye Anlan's pull, Ye Jinkui bent down and looked carefully at the corpse that was lying down in the woods.
"Oh, it's another refugee who starved to death."
"Do you want to bury him?"
"Buried it." Ye Jinkui handed the basket to Ye Anlan, "You go home first, dad dig a hole and bury him in."
Ye Anlan shook his head, "We can go home first, and then come and dig a hole together after we get the shovel."
Hats are not suitable for digging holes. Her father used a hatchet to dig, but he didn't know when he would go.
Ye Jinkui hesitated for a moment, "It's done too."
The father and daughter then bypassed the body and returned to the cave where their family temporarily settled.
"You are back." Li said he heard the news and greeted him, "Have you encountered any trouble? Have you bought the grain?"
"I didn't encounter any trouble." Ye Jinkui reported good news but bad news. "I bought back the grain, and I also bought a lot of it."
When Li heard this, a smile appeared on his face.
Their family has run out of food. If Ye Jinkui cannot bring back the food this time, she will have to drink wild vegetable soup for the children.
The wild vegetables in autumn are old and bitter. If it weren't for the fact that there was no way, Li wouldn't want to use this thing to distribute the children.
"Yuan Yuan is hungry, right? Isn't she going to cook for you now." Li touched Ye Anlan's little head, then carried the noodles bag and was about to leave.
Ye Anlan called her, "Mom, put more noodles and let your younger brothers and sisters have a good meal."
Li hesitated.
Ye Anlan said again: "I can make money now, and I will make money with my father in the future to support my family."
She handed Li the thirty-eight copper plates obtained from selling medicinal materials, "Here, this is the money I made today."
Li's eyes were hot, "Then, that mother will have another bowl of noodles."
At this moment, Li didn't want to tell Ye Anlan, "Winter is coming soon, and there is no house to live in at home, so food and cotton coats are also very problematic."
She wanted her children to have a decent meal than this.
A few little beads surrounded Li, their eyes were shining, their faces were smiling, and they were waiting for the dough with anticipation. Ye Jinkui and Ye Anlan quietly touched the forest with shovels.
