Chapter 144 The word refugee is very sensitive

"Get up!" Liu Cai'er was not stupid. She knew that the hardships this girl had suffered in the Meng family were beyond her imagination.

Before Ah Jiu could hit his knees, he grabbed him:

"You have a hard life too. I will go to the government office tomorrow to get a pass. The backyard of my medical clinic is vacant. I have room to live."

"Thank you, sister-in-law."

Ah Jiu smiled happily, her eyes seemed to be filled with stars.

This caused Liu Cai'er to twitch her lips in a rare gesture:

"When my sister-in-law first met you, you were locked up in the woodshed. It happened to be your eldest brother and I's big wedding day. I gave you a candy. I never saw you smiling like this at that time."

"At that time..." Ah Jiu lowered her eyes and pursed her lips: "The sweetest thing Jiu'er ate at that time was that candy. Jiu'er might not have learned to laugh at that time."

"Oh... that's all. In the future, you should smile as much as you do now. Don't be like your elder brother, who has a dull face all day long and dare not even fart when grandma scolds you."

Liu Cai'er sighed. It was only then that she learned that he had a poor sister when he got married.

"How did you come here? How about I arrange a carriage to take you out of the city to pick up your family?"

When talking about grandma, Liu Caier's face darkened.

Such a cunning and mean old lady, she wished she could be beaten with a stick and crippled in bed to see who she expected to take care of her.

"No, no, sister-in-law, I... I brought the carriage here myself. The carriage... the carriage is waiting at the entrance of the city."

Ah Jiu is not in trouble at all. She came here because of her fame. It is an unexpected thing that she can get help from her sister-in-law. How can she have the nerve to trouble her sister-in-law.

And Jiu'er felt guilty in his heart. His eldest brother was really too inhumane. After listening to grandma's words, he drove away such a good sister-in-law.

But now my grandma is doing much better than before, and I hope I can meet my sister-in-law one day.

"Need not?"

Ah Jiu waved her hand and stepped back: "I really don't need sister-in-law, I have a carriage."

They all retreated to the bluestone street outside the hospital. She walked backwards while laughing and waving her hands:

"Goodbye, sister-in-law."

After Ah Jiu said that, he turned around and ran away. With a whoosh, a black shadow passed before his eyes, almost grazing the bridge of Ah Jiu's nose.

"Ajiu, be careful..."

Ah Jiu suddenly took two steps back and stared blankly at the officers and soldiers galloping on their horses.

It scared her to death.

She turned around and smiled at her worried sister-in-law:

"Sister-in-law, I'm fine. I'll be careful."

"Yes." Liu Cai'er said hello, watching the little figure in obviously ill-fitting clothes jumping towards the south city gate.

The smile slowly faded from her face.

Meng Nanxing, why did you let me down so much? I wish you could die.

But I heard that you were infected with the plague, but I couldn't be happy. Why?

Liu Cai'er covered her face with tears streaming down her face. She suddenly lost the backrest of the two men, and her body was strained:

"Nan Xing, you must not die. Our child can speak. You haven't heard him call you daddy yet. When I find you, I will do everything possible to cure your disease."

Ah Jiu walked back to the city gate.

I found that there were more officers and soldiers than when I arrived, so I stopped them by the roadside.

"Huangfumen is handling the case, and everyone is retreating."

Then a group of cavalry rode in. Ah Jiu was pushed to the side of the road and stared blankly for a long time. The wave of talents disappeared in the direction of the city gate.

The street returned to its liveliness before Ah Jiu, carrying her long skirt, looked for someone to ask for the direction of the government office.

Standing outside the rivet-filled yamen gate in the high hall and wide courtyard, Ah Jiu raised his head and looked at the plaque hanging above: "Huangfu Gate."

The two stone lions at the door are majestic and domineering, making people feel a sense of pressure standing at the door.

Ah Jiu took a deep breath and stepped in.

"Little girl, what are your grievances?"

Ah Jiu was stopped, and Ah Jiu said nervously: "I came to see my parents. They were arrested and taken into the government office the day before yesterday. I... I want to see them."

"Are they the refugees making trouble? Or the criminals who killed and looted in Heba Village last night?"

The two officers on guard immediately became more vigilant.

In the current era, the word "refugee" has become as sensitive as the word "murder, arson, and plundering people's talents".
