Chapter 406

Grandma Mu shook her head and said no. she also said, "our wood comes to your house all day to eat, which has caused trouble to your family."

Ye Xiaoxian hurriedly said, "I eat one or two pancakes every once in a while, but wood can help me a lot, isn't it wood?"

Wood is shy and doesn't talk.

Then the leaf asked, "by the way, grandma, where are wood's parents?"

Grandma Mu paused, and her face gradually showed sadness: "Mu's father was a soldier in the military camp. If he didn't come back all year round, his mother ran away with others, and his father..."

Ye Xiaoxian was very sorry and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, grandma. I didn't know it would be like this."

Grandma Mu suddenly scolded at this time: "Alas, it's all those people who pray."

"..." Ye Xiaoxian doesn't know what this is about?

Is wood's father in Mobei military camp?

Grandma Mu said, "two days ago, my family received a funeral report saying that Mu's father had died in the war. They were attacked. Almost all of their barracks were killed, leaving only a few hundred people."

Ye Xiaoxian didn't know about it. After listening to Mu's words, she was surprised and asked, "ah, is there such a thing?"

"That's more than 10000 people. They're all dead, and so is my son!" Grandma Mu wept and beat her thigh sadly: "I'm just such a son. I've been looking forward to his return. I didn't expect to never come back."

Ye Xiaoxian expressed her deep sympathy.

At the same time, thinking about the funeral report received a few days ago, did this war happen not long ago, and after her captivity?

Well, Xiao Baoshan must have started the war. Because he was angry, he wiped out Beiqing military camp in one fell swoop.

Ye Xiaoxian is in a complicated mood. On the one hand, she is happy for Xiao Baoshan and on the other hand, she feels pity for grandma mu.

Therefore, whether it is the victorious side or the defeated side, there are people who suffer, and no one is a winner.

Ye Xiaoxian comforted Mu's grandmother and said, "grandma, I'm sorry. By the way, Mu still has you. He is a happy child. The child's father has a spirit in heaven and will bless him to grow up healthily."

Grandma Mu sighed again, and then asked Ye Xiaoxian, "girl, what about you? How can you live here alone?"

Ye Xiaoxian thought for a moment and said, "me? My husband is gone and took refuge in a distant relative. Seeing that I have nowhere to go, the relative brought me here and let me live alone."

"That's also very poor. There used to be an old couple living in this house. After they left, no one lived here for a long time."

Ye Xiaoxian nodded and thought, no wonder it's so desolate here.

Grandma Mu asks Ye Xiaoxian to have a good rest, and she pulls the wood away.

Ye Xiaoxian sat blankly in the yard.

After a while, there was another movement outside the door.

She thought it was wood, but as soon as she turned around, she saw the obscene man at the entrance of the alley, who was also staring at her obscene.

Her heart trembled. She didn't dodge now, but looked at the man and looked at him.

Every time he avoids, he will think she is easy to bully.

The man stared outside for a while. Fortunately, he didn't take the next step and walked away unhappily soon.

……

Day after day, unconsciously, ye Xiaoxian has been in Beijing for a month.

Over the past month, she has been selling pancakes every day. Her business is getting better and better day by day. There are more and more repeat customers. By selling fried rice, she has also earned two or three Liang silver. In this way, she has four or five Liang silver on hand.

When she got the money, she went to the pawnshop and redeemed the golden hairpin.

It's a life-saving thing. Redeem it and wear it just in case.

On the way back, ye Xiaoxian bought herself two clothes, a quilt and a pair of shoes.

I also bought some other household items, which are commonly used at home. I have more household items and live a comfortable life.

The days seemed calm, but for her, every day was suffering.

She thinks about xiaobaoshan, Dongdong and Xiaoxia every day.

That day, while it was still early, she went out again.

When I got to the entrance of the alley, I saw the obscene man again. The man sat in front of his house, crossed his legs and chewed a radish in his mouth.

Ye Xiaoxian ignored him, but he stood up and asked Ye Xiaoxian for the first time: "little lady?"

Ye Xiaoxian thought, who is your mother.

She quickened her pace, but the man also followed up and cried again, "little lady, where are you going?"

Ye Xiaoxian still ignored him and ran away.

After running for a while, I looked back and no one followed.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

Is that man a brain problem? What will he do next?

Ye Xiaoxian thought that when she came back, she had to buy some big knives. She put one in every corner of the house. If the obscene man dared to enter her house, she would cut him to death!

……

She walked and looked all the way. Unconsciously, she came to the gate of the city.

Seeing the bustling crowd at the gate of the city, she was suddenly very excited and shook her fist.

She wants to go out. If she can get out of the gate, she doesn't know if she can return to Xiaobao mountain?

Her steps moved forward imperceptibly.

To get out of the city gate, she had to line up. She also walked into the line and followed the line.

Can you get out of town this time?

Will anyone follow?

Things can't go as smoothly as you think, can they?

Ye Xiaoxian thought and followed the team forward.

"Where is your identity document?"

Someone stopped her and asked her directly.

Ye Xiaoxian was stunned. Then she touched the bag around her waist and found another reason: "I didn't bring it."

"Don't go out of town without, next!" The soldier pushed her back rudely.

Ye Xiaoxian stumbled and almost didn't fall.

She walked back bitterly.

An ultimatum is needed for customs clearance.

Maybe you can buy it or fake it?

……

Back in the alley, the wretched man is gone.

Ye Xiaoxian ran to Mu Mu's house and saw Mu sitting alone in the yard eating steamed bread. She quickly said hello to Mu Mu.

When the wood saw her, he came and opened the door.

Ye Xiaoxian stuffed some sweets she bought on the way into Mu's hand and asked mu, "where's your grandmother?"

The wood pointed in the direction of the stove.

Grandma Mu kneaded the noodles on the stove and saw that it was Ye Xiaoxian. She kindly said hello and said, "have you had dinner? Today, Mu said he wanted to eat my dumplings, so I'm going to wrap him some vegetarian stuffing."

Ye Xiaoxian asked, "wood likes vegetarian stuffing?"

"Not at all. Isn't there no meat at home?" Granny wood smiled.

Ye Xiaoxian said, "then wait a minute. I'll go back and get some dried beef."

"No..." grandma Mu wanted to refuse, but ye Xiaoxian had already run out.

……

Ye Xiaoxian quickly took some dried beef and saw that grandma Mu had rolled noodles. She said to grandma Mu again, "I'll wrap it with you."

Grandma Mu knew she could cook food and was good at it, so she agreed.

Ye Xiaoxian quickly pinched the dumplings into several colors. The wood looked at them and clapped his hands. She looked like she couldn't wait to eat.

Grandma Mu wants to leave Ye Xiaoxian to eat here. Seeing that the dumplings are enough for three people, ye Xiaoxian agrees.

After cooking, grandma Mu took three bowls and filled three bowls, one for each person.

While eating dumplings, ye Xiaoxian began to ask grandma mu, "grandma, do you have an identity document in the city?"

"Yes." Grandma Mu said, "everyone has it, even wood."

Ye Xiaoxian thought that the management system of Beiqing was more standardized than Daqi.

Ye Xiaoxian pretended to be depressed and said, "I used to have it, but I couldn't find it after entering the city. I may have lost it. Today I want to walk outside the city, and the guard won't let me out."

"Well." Granny Mu said, "then you have to do another one, but it's very troublesome. You have to go to the Yamen and be accompanied by your family, otherwise you can't prove your identity. See if your relatives are free and let them go with you."

Ye Xiaoxian said, "my relatives... Alas, I may be bothered by myself and don't want to talk to me."

Granny Mu glanced at her and sympathized with her: "if they were willing to take care of you, they wouldn't put you in this old alley to live and die. You look pathetic as a woman."

Ye Xiaoxian took the opportunity to ask, "what if I ask you to prove it for you? Is that ok?"

Granny Mu shook her head. "I'm afraid it's not possible. I'm not related to you. Who will say you are mine then?"

"Daughter? Daughter-in-law, niece, such a relationship?" Asked Ye Xiaoxian.

Grandma Mu looked at Ye Xiaoxian again from top to bottom.

Ye Xiaoxian had a feeling that she was going to be seen through. She quickly smiled: "no, forget it. Anyway, I live well in the city and don't go out."

Grandma Mu didn't say anything, but said, "the dumplings are getting cold. Eat them quickly."

"OK." Ye Xiaoxian continued to eat dumplings.

At the same time, I thought, grandma Mu is not easy to fool, so I can't hurry about it.

Who knows, just after the dumplings, grandma Mu suddenly said, "in fact, I'll help you prove that it's not impossible, but when the government asks, you have to say, you're the mother of wood."

"..." Ye Xiaoxian was stunned.

At the same time, I was thinking about grandma Mu's words. Grandma wood wants her to be the mother of wood?

Is grandma Mu worried that if she suddenly dies, she will not be taken care of?

Ye Xiaoxian thought, it doesn't matter. Anyway, she can leave the customs with a customs clearance ultimatum. It's nothing to recognize a dry son. Besides, as long as she leaves the city, she has nothing to do with wood.

She simply nodded and said, "yes, anyway, our two families live close. Wood can be my dry son. Take care of each other in the future."

After listening, grandma Mu felt relieved and said, "OK, I'll accompany you to the government tomorrow to prove it."
