Chapter 124 Weird Mother and Daughter

"Xiao Li, is this your home?" Really?

An Joya looked up at the dangerous building in front of him in amazement. It's hard to imagine that this is a place where people live. It's so horrible.

Follow the little girl who pulled her clothes on the road and walked around several streets, and finally stopped at the end of a dark alley. There was a house that had obviously been abandoned for a long time. The surrounding walls had peeled off, and the red paint had completely faded and several broken wooden doors were barely closed together. As soon as the wind blows, it creaks. The grass by the door is almost taller than Molly, that is, the child who brought her here. It is hard to imagine that there are such dilapidated houses in the bustling capital.

But then again, there is a gap between the rich and the poor everywhere, isn't there?

"Yes." Xiao Moli turned a blind eye to An Qiaoya's shocked face, let go of holding An Qiaoya's hand, held the sugar-coated haws bought for her like a baby, jumped to open the door, and then rushed in like a mouse and shouted as she ran, "Mom, little brother, Xiao Li is back. Mother..."

An Qiaoya hesitated and finally made up her mind to keep up. After all, she had agreed to Xiaoli, and she was embarrassed to regret it. Although she really felt that this place was more suitable for ghosts to live in, it was better for strangers not to enter.

The probe took a step inside. Fortunately, there were not so many weeds in the yard. It should have been carefully cleaned by someone and looked neat. The well in the middle of the yard looked a little horrible. Even if there was such a big sun shining on her head, Anjoya still felt chills coming out of the mouth of the well.

Xiaoli has run away. An Qiaoya walked to the yard like a thief. When she looked outside the door, she only felt that the entrance of the door was very small, but when she came in, it turned out that there was still a universe behind the door, not to mention the strange ancient yard. It turned out that there was a door behind the yard, and there was a not short pebble behind the door. On the paved road, An Qiaoya took a few more steps and went straight through the door to the cobblestone path. It was another spacious yard, but this yard was much better than the one in front of it. At least there was no gloomy well, and there was a drying rack with five thin bamboo poles barely attached together. There were four pieces hanging on the shelf. Patched coarse cloth clothes, two large and two small, the two large, one is a light gray coat, and the other is a washed white yellow skirt. It seems that Xiaoli's mother and daughter do live here.

There are two houses behind the yard, both of which are closed. Because she doesn't know which one Xiaoli entered, and she is afraid of disturbing Xiaoli's mother, An Qiaoya can only whisper to the two houses, "Xiao Li, Xiao Li."

"Big brother," shouted a few words, and the door on the left opened a small crack. Xiaoli's still dirty little face poked out of it. Then she opened the door and waved to her, "Big brother, here."

hu——

Fortunately, she came out to respond to her, otherwise she didn't know whether to continue to wait or just turn around and leave, and come back to help after calling all the people.

With a sigh of relief, An Qiaoya hurriedly pulled up the hem of her long robe and walked to the room. Although she had asked Fuer to help her shorten a lot before going out, it was still too long for her height.

All the windows in the house are closed tightly, and I don't know if it is because there has been no ventilation for a long time. There is a faint musty smell in the house, which is estimated to be caused by the melting snow and the dampness of the beams at the beginning of the spring.

There is a simple wooden bed by the window in the southeast corner of the room, and ** there is a thin figure struggling to get up.

"Cough... Xiaoli..." The man called with difficulty, and the hoarse female voice was mixed with a long cough from time to time. "Please... cough... please brother... cough... sit down... sit down.

"I know, mother." Xiaoli struggled to close the door panel and heard her mother's call. She immediately turned to the corner of the wall and moved a small stool out and put it behind Angioya. "Big brother, sit down." She pulled Anjoa's cuffs and motioned her to sit down.

"Oh, okay, thank you, Xiaoli is so good." Anjoya, who came to her senses, hurriedly thanked, patted the little girl on the head and praised her, pulled the stool and sat down. Although the stool was old, it was particularly clean.

"Cough... My Xiaoli is ignorant, give... cough... I'm sorry for you... cough..." ** said, and coughed vigorously. Seeing this, Xiaoli quickly ran back to the bedside, cleverly stretched out his hand on her mother's back, and gently helped her breathe, "Mother, please speak slowly. Click to say."

"No trouble, no trouble." As he spoke, Anjoya also stood up nervously.

According to her coughing method, it is estimated that she will be able to report to heaven in a few hours, Anchoa thought in her heart.

looked left and right and found that there was a teapot on the table by the door, with two cups next to it. An Qiaoya thought about it and walked forward, picked up the teapot and poured a glass of water, went straight to the bedside, and handed the cup of water to the ** woman's hand. "This big... madam, drink some water first."

"Cough, thank you...thank you." After taking the cup, the woman sips water along the small mouth of the cup.

And her eyes finally adapted to the darkness and finally saw ** Xiaoli's mother's appearance through the faint light of the window paper.

I don't know if her weak body looks particularly thin because of illness. Her neck, which is not covered with quilts, is slender and thin, as if it can be broken with one hand. It may be that she has been lying in bed for a long time. Her green silk looks a little messy, but even so, the hair has not been dry and damaged at all.

Her face is pale, and there are many more bubbles on her lips due to lack of water, but in addition to these conditions, she is a complete beauty. Under the curved willow eyebrows, there are black bright eyes with a little watery light because of a violent cough, thin and slender eyelashes like a small fan, a straight nose, small diamond-shaped lips, and The goose egg face, which includes all her facial features, shows the fact that she is a beauty - even if she can only be regarded as Sister Lin at best now.

When she saw Xiaoli before, she was guessing that Xiaoli's mother should be a beauty, but she didn't expect it to be so amazing. To be honest, she is the most beautiful person she has ever seen except for the second brother and third brother. Er, of course, it can also be regarded as the most beautiful woman. After all, the first two are with handlers and are not comparable. .

I don't know who has no conscience to throw such a weak beauty and his lovely daughter here. This kind of treacherous man should really be struck by thunder.

"Mom, how are you?" Just as An Qiaoya was angry in her heart, Xiaoli had already taken the empty cup and did not forget to continue to pat her mother on the back to make her feel more comfortable. "Xiao Li can pour another glass of water for her mother."

"Good." The loving beautiful mother helped Xiaoli tidy up her messy hair, and then lengthened her sleeves to help her wipe the stains on her face. She smiled and said, "Xiao Li is so good."

"You have to lie down obediently. Xiaoli will help you pour water." The soft child's voice responded, and Xiaoli climbed down from the half-high ** with a teacup in her hand, and An Qiaoya realized that she was now a 'man' and 'men and women are not close to women', so she quickly stepped back a few steps and walked back to the stool and sat down.

"Madam, can you take the liberty to ask how long you have been sick and how did you choose to live in this place?" After thinking about it, An Qiaoya asked thoughtfully, but immediately thought that this might cause people's disgust, so she quickly added, "Of course, I'm just curious to ask. If it's not convenient for you to say anything, you don't have to answer. You can talk to the doctor later. Don't worry, there is no malice here.

** The beauty saw that An Qiaoya was eager to explain, and suddenly smiled and finally found a little angry. "Concubine... cough... I don't think the prince is a bad person, cough... And, prince, oh, no, maybe I should call you a girl. My concubine's surname is Du... cough cough... single name... cough, cough, single The name is Xiang, older than the girl... and married. If you don't mind, you can call your concubine Sister Du.

"Sister Du..."

An Qiaoya pondered and thought to himself, it seems that this beautiful woman named Du Xiang must have come from a scholarly family and speaks in a literary manner. In addition, "Well, can I ask how can you tell that I am a woman?" This is the point, and she clearly thinks that she is well disguised.

"Ha," maybe the tutoring habit is good. Even if she was sick and weak, Du Xiang still covered her mouth with the back of her hand and smiled. "Girl, don't forget that my concubine is already from a husband's family. For the characteristics of men, my concubine still knows it. Cough..." There was another long cough, and Du Xiang hurried to pick up. After holding the cup and carefully approaching the teacup in his hand by the bed, he took a sip of water and then continued, "I saw that although the girl was wearing a man's clothing, there was no man's throat knot on her neck. When I looked closely, I found that the girl had ear holes in her ears, which was only for women. Cough... So, my concubine Thinking that the girl must be dressed as a man.

"Awesome!" Anchoa gave a hearty thumbs up.

"Actually, Xiaoli also knows that the eldest brother is a woman." Xiaoli, who obediently put the cup and crawled back to his mother's side, blinked his always beautiful black eyes and suddenly said. Otherwise, Xiaoli won't ask his sister for your help.

"What?" Anchoa almost vomited to death. How can such a little P child see that she is a Xibei product? Oh, my God, let a lightning hit her tofu to death. She won't live. What kind of world is this?

"Why..." Anjoa's lips moved, as if she had suffered a big blow, and she was very depressed.

"Am I really in a bad disguise?" It's impossible. Even Fuer can't recognize her dress.

"In fact, it's not that the girl's disguise is not good, but that Xiaoli has a fragrant nose inherited from her ancestors. I think the girl may not have noticed that you use powder that only women use, right?"

"Fmented powder?" Hearing this, Anjoya immediately subconsciously raised her sleeves and smelled it vigorously, "Nothing special." Even if there is fragrant powder, it will be washed off during her shower. How can it still be smelled?

"There are men and women's incense powder. Men generally don't use incense powder, unless they are palace nobles, and women generally like to use incense powder. Xiaoli's talent is to distinguish all kinds of incense powder. Even if there is only a very light taste, Xiaoli can smell whether it is male incense powder or female incense powder."

"So that's..."

An Qiaoya suddenly realized that it was none of her disguise skills? Well, when she pretends to be a man in the future, she will remember to go to the second brother's room to order a little male powder - the second brother often has a good smell. He should use powder, right?

(Wow, I'm so tired, but yesterday I suddenly found that I was close to the recommendation list... It's really unexpected~ But of course I'm still very happy!)
