Li Qingyi locked himself in the room and lay on the bed, and habitually covered his head with a quilt.

There was a rumbling sound in my ears, and even covering my ears would have no effect.

She knew clearly that this was just auditory hallucination, but whenever she fell asleep, this sound would sound in her ears. The sound of cannons from the British and French coalition forces siege the city seemed to be yesterday.

The French army captured the north of the city, the British army captured the south of the city, and the entire Sijiu city fell into the hands of foreign soldiers.

Five days later, the burning Old Summer Palace was shocked by the shock of China and the world.

In these five days, it would be a disaster for the people living in Sijiu City. These foreign soldiers were lawless and looted everywhere.

At that time, Li Qingyi was still young, and only remembered that she was hidden in the cabinet.

In the darkness, she suddenly heard her mother's cry, but the sound quickly stopped, as if her mother was covered by someone's mouth.

She saw a blond British soldier in red, white pants, blond hair and blue eyes pressing his mother to the corner of the kang, covering her mouth with one hand and tearing her clothes with the other.

At this moment, someone broke in. It was Li Qingyi's father.

Li Qingyi's father kicked the British soldier away, but was shot and killed by another British soldier coming in from behind. When her mother saw her husband die in front of her, she suddenly moved forward, allowing the bayonet from the rifle in the hand of the British soldier to penetrate her chest.

“Huhhhhhhh…”

Li Qingyi woke up from her dream and walked to the windowsill to take a look. It was already late at night.

As for Ning Xiu, he has long disappeared.

......

Under the dark night.

Ning Xiu returned to Shajia Inn from Yixiangyuan.

At this moment, a burst of crying suddenly came into his ears. He was about to enter the house, but when he turned around, he saw a little girl squatting outside his house and crying secretly.

The little girl Ning Xiu knew her and was a neighbor of their Shajia Inn. He had met her several times these days and seemed to be called Xiao Ran.

A little girl hid outside the house and cried in the middle of the night. Ning Xiu couldn't stand it and went up to ask.

When Xiao Ran saw someone coming, she didn't reply, but just cried even harder.

I cried so sadly and resolutely.

Ning Xiu got up and walked back to the inn. The little girl thought Ning Xiu had just left like this, but she didn't expect the other party to come out again.

When he came out again, Ning Xiu had already added a bowl of noodles in his hand, which was the bowl of noodles Sha Zilong left for him when he left during the day.

Including the bowl of noodles he ate at Li San's house, this is his second time eating today.

The same noodles, and the same mess.

Thinking of this, Ning Xiu couldn't help but sigh. Although he was never picky about food, the noodles were really not delicious.

The rain is still falling.

As he slammed the ground, water splashed everywhere, Ning Xiu walked to the threshold next to the little girl with a noodle bowl, half-squatted to look at the rain in front of him, and then began to lower his head to eat noodles.

I just ate quietly, as if there was no little girl beside me.

The little girl gradually forgot to cry and turned to look at Ning Xiu.

I saw that his clothes were completely wet, the color seemed a little dark, and his hair was covered with water droplets, which looked a little embarrassed, but the strange thing was that the man himself did not feel embarrassed at all.

Eat the noodles in the bowl with a calm expression.

It seems to be doing something extremely solemn and sacred.

After a long silence, the little girl found that the man suddenly looked down at her and said with a smile: "The face is very fragrant."

The little girl then noticed the sound of her stomach gushing.

A hint of blush appeared on her cheeks.

"No matter how desperate things happen, don't forget to eat."

The little girl looked at Ning Xiu tightly, hesitated for a moment, took the noodle bowl, and started to eat it in big mouthfuls. As she ate, tears flowed down her feet.

The already lumped noodles finally came alive.

......

After the little girl finished eating noodles and packed up her emotions, she explained the situation to Ning Xiu in detail.

It turned out that Xiao Ran's family owed Tianqiao's one-eyed five taels of silver three years ago because they wanted to treat her mother. Now the profit is more than the profit, and it turns over a year. Now three years have passed, and it has risen to an astronomical figure of forty taels.

Ning Xiu heard that Sijiu City specially used the seal money, and he had a lot of brothers under his command and also set up a dog fighting field.

He has a very poor reputation and has suffered several days of life. Xiao Ran’s parents actually asked him to borrow money from him, and he was really confused.

Xiao Ran’s parents were honest and loyal people, who made a living by growing vegetables and selling vegetables. After three years of hard work, they had to earn enough of the first five taels of silver.

Now that the one-eyed brothers under his hands are coming to collect the debt, they naturally cannot take it out, so Xiao Ran's father was beaten to death.

Later, the scumbags forced his father to make a document. The so-called document was Xiao Ran's contract to sell his body. If he couldn't pay back the money in five days, he would sell Xiao Ran to One-eyed Zhang as his little wife.

In fact, one-eyed Zhang Dao was the idea from the beginning.

Xiao Ran's father refused at first, and the gangsters threatened to beat him to death to pay off the debt if they didn't sign. Finally, Xiao Ran stood up, bit her lip with red eyes, held back her tears, and signed it down. Only then did her father escape.

Afterwards, Xiao Ran’s parents didn’t dare to face her, and the two 50-year-olds would just hug each other and cry.

Xiao Ran could not hold back the tears at that time, and at this late night, it was finally impossible to hold back.

It fell down aloud.

......

When Ning Xiu took away the Taotie pattern jade tripod, he also took away some silver notes on the table. This money would not be used after he left this world.

He reached out his hand and took out a silver note from his arms worth fifty taels, covered with the Datong Money Bank, and squatted down and placed it next to the little girl.

"This is fifty taels of silver. You go and give it to your father, and ask him to ask a few people to repay the debt together and get the document back. You family will live a good life with the remaining money, but don't borrow money from the seal."

Ning Xiu should have shot a bully like Tianqiao One-eyed Zhang, but he now has a task and has no time to settle accounts with him. Moreover, in such a world, there is no way to kill such people.

It would be better if it could be solved with money. Ning Xiu said and told the little girl a few more words. First, let her not tell others that the money was given by her, just pretending it was picked up.

The second is to ask her to tell her father that when she goes to pay off her debts, she must call her neighbors, and it is best to say something that can speak in the Guangqumen area, and it is okay to spend some money.

After explaining clearly, Ning Xiu reached out and touched the little girl's head, and said, "You must remember to live well."

If I hadn't met Ning Xiu, the little girl had indeed thought of silly.

She had planned everything that in order not to drag down her parents, she would find a way to kill the other person on the night she married One-eyed Zhang and then commit suicide.

And now, she wants to survive.
