Chapter 5

Table tennis!

The porcelain bowl fell to the ground and blossomed. The landlady was so surprised that she hurried out to check it“ What happened? "

Ah Yao was stunned.

The tea drinkers in the box apologized to the landlady, put down the tea money and hurried away. Ah Yao couldn't hear or see it, and his mind only echoed what the farmers said.

People in Jiangliu county like children's meat best. They like children's meat best

The scenes flashed in a Yao's mind like watching flowers.

The little friend smiled and clapped his hands and laughed with her, but she was stunned;

When she was washing dishes in the kitchen, she hid a pair of flints on her body when adults were unprepared;

In the middle of the night, she slipped out of the house, found a sweet potato from the straw pile next to the chicken nest, crept out of the house, and ran along the road into the mountain;

Uncle took his neighbors to catch her

It turned out that all this was because her original uncle sold her to the family who ate children. In order not to be taken away, washed and slaughtered, she escaped!

A Yao seemed to hear the words of her little friends. They said, "Liu ya, I heard your uncle say he would send you to Jiangliu county to be a 'two legged sheep' for LV Yuanwai. Don't forget us when you enjoy happiness in the future!"

Little buddy doesn't know what "two legged sheep" is, but the original body must know.

"No wonder..." ah Yao murmured to herself, afraid to arise spontaneously. "No wonder she would have such a strong idea that she would rather die than fall into their hands. Life is better than death in their hands. What a special beast!" She cursed in a low voice. When she recovered, she found that the clothes on her back were wet with sweat. When the wind blew, it was chilly behind her.

"Ha sneeze!" A Yao rubbed her nose, followed by hopelessness and negativity.

This body is only 7 or 8 years old. It has long been malnourished and thin. It can't even compare with the 5 or 6-year-old children of a rich family.

It's not easy to escape here. You can't enter the city without a road guide, and you can't turn back to Jiangliu county. If Qingning nunnery doesn't take her in, where else can she go? Without food, how long can she last just by relying on the water of the nearby river? Is she really going to become a beggar and beg for kindness with a bowl all day?

A Yao became more and more pessimistic. After a long time, tears came up and fell down.

I'm really embarrassed to cry. I'm full of tears. Don't cry. After crying, I have to go some way to the river to boil water to make up for the loss of water. It's a loss, isn't it.

Rao comforted herself. She couldn't stop her tears for a moment and a half, and her nose was blocked.

It took a long time to smell the smell of wheat and bread. Her eyes were red and she looked up and saw the landlady.

She carried the lantern, the candle flickered, and the other hand held a bowl. The fragrance came from the bowl, which looked so dazzling at this time.

Without asking, the landlady squatted down and put the bowl in front of ah Yao: "you're going to finish eating, just put the bowl on the stove." After that, he got up and went back to the small hut of the tea stand, which was the home of their family, and closed the door and locked it.

Vaguely heard the bear child complaining discontentedly about why her mother gave her the remaining wheat cakes.

A Yao was also curious about the answer. Holding the bowl and taking a few steps closer, she heard it more clearly. The landlady's voice was not very gentle: "she's as old as you. I've seen her for a long time. She didn't steal the money of passing guests or rob them of the remaining tea and cakes. It's estimated that the family was lost or... In short, It's not a good thing to have fun with people. "

"But you haven't helped many people."

"Smelly boy, our family is poor, and wheat cakes can still help. Your father doesn't mind. What are you muttering about? Why don't you go to bed quickly?"

The voice gradually dropped. Ah Yao returned to the previous place and sat down. In the moonlight, she broke a small piece of wheat cake and chewed it. The wheat cake is very hard, with clear grains and bad taste. In her previous life, she won't try it anyway. Now she actually eats a trace of wheat sweetness from it. This is the most delicious food that ah Yao and his generation have ever eaten.

In Yinshi, the people in Nanxun town were still sleeping, and the breakfast shops opened quietly, and the tea stalls in the suburbs were no exception.

Before the city gate was opened, the fire on the stove of the tea stall was burning vigorously. The fire urged the expansion of wheat cakes and steamed cakes in the cage drawer, and the white fog with fragrance escaped from the gap of the cage drawer. The two couples of the tea stall began a busy day.

The movement of the tea stall awakened a Yao who was sleeping.

She sat up with a dazed little face. For a long time, she focused on the couple at the tea stall not far away. She still held the thick porcelain bowl of yesterday's landlady in her arms, and there was more than half a wheat cake in the bowl. She was telling her that what happened last night was true.

"Thank you." A Yao took advantage of the owner's absence and returned the bowl to the landlady, "thank you very much for your help."

The landlady said, "if you really can't live, go to Qingning nunnery... It's also a way to live, which is better than starving."

A Yao bowed to the landlady, "thank you."

At Mao, the dawn drove out the night. The gate of Nanxun County opened slowly. The guards came out of the city and divided them on both sides to check the people who had been waiting outside the county to enter the city.

On the mountain, the little nun opened the gate of Qingning nunnery, stepped out to sweep the fallen leaves, turned around and saw an unidentified object with a knee high beside the door. She was startled and looked at it carefully. She was a child!

She quickly went out and helped ah Yao up: "Amitabha, why are you the only one, benefactor? Where are your parents? "

In the wing room, a Yao made a little modification to her original life experience. She said that her family took her to travel around all kinds of diseases. When she arrived nearby, her family asked her to buy sugar gourd in the market at the foot of the mountain. They went to the nunnery for incense. She couldn't wait for them for a long time, so she came up and asked, "sister, have you seen my father, my mother and my brother?"

With tears in her eyes, the little nun recited amitabha in a low voice.

A Yao asked in a trembling voice, "don't they want me?"

"Don't think too much. I haven't seen you. I have to ask other people in the nunnery first. You can have a rest first." The little nun didn't know how to answer, so she had to persuade each other.

"I know... I dragged them down." Ah Yao, with tears in her eyes, fell down on her knees. "I heard that the nunnery accommodates widowed and orphaned old people and children. I am willing to exchange my labor for daily food and clothing. I can burn fire and wash clothes... Cutting firewood is OK. I beg my sister to take me in! When I grow up, I will leave! "

The little nun quickly picked her up and looked embarrassed. "I can't do this. I'll ask the master. Take a break first. I'll go back." He ran out.

A Yao sat on the stool quite skillfully and came to a place where there were all women, which was more reassuring than staying in the monk temple.

She looked at the wing room. The window was bright and clean. There was a basin of orchids on the high platform. There was a landscape picture on the wall. When she looked closer, she found that in the landscape picture, the stream flowed down along the mountains and stones. Near the stream waterfall on the hillside, there were monks lecturing. They looked peaceful. Just appreciating the picture was enough to calm down.

The little nun came back with an older bhikuni and found that ah Yao was missing. Before she frowned, the little nun pointed to the bed over there and lowered her voice: "she's asleep."

Bichuni walked quietly.

For the first time in days, a Yao slept soundly and was not awakened by the footsteps of bhikuni.

She stood beside ah Yao, looked at her sleeping face and nodded thoughtfully.

When ah Yao woke up, she got up and stretched. She suddenly felt that she was full of blood and resurrected. There was no one else in the room except her.
