"Mother, mother …"

The little girl jogged all the way back, not daring to stop for even a moment. By the time she returned to the broken surface, she was already exhausted to the point of sweating profusely. She carefully touched Qiao Niang's forehead. It was still frighteningly hot, and she had already passed out.

"Mother, you have to hold on for a bit …"

The little girl used both hands and feet to pull away the straw that covered her body. Then, she carefully poured out a bit of wine and carefully helped her heal her wounds …

"Hiss …"

The liquor burned her wound. Qiao Niang, who was in a deep sleep, couldn't help but frown. She didn't take in a deep breath; instead, she seemed to be in pain. However, not only did the little girl not stop, she even increased her speed.

"Huff … huff …" "Huu huu, I'm so tired …"

The little beggar followed the little girl the whole way. However, he did not expect the little girl to be so fast just by looking like she was. He almost could not find her.

"Hey, little girl, why are you running so fast? "If I say I'll give it to you, I'll give it to you. I won't fight over it with you." He sat down on the ground and complained. He was a man of his word, so he would give it to her as soon as he said it.

"Eh? Why are you here?"

The little girl's hand did not stop moving. She raised her head and looked at the little beggar with a puzzled expression.

"I, I can't come, I'm willing." The little beggar was stunned. He did not understand why he followed her, in any case, he only felt a little worried when he saw her, "Who is this person? Sick? That depends on the doctor! "

The little beggar's eyes fell on Qiao Niang, who was lying in the corner, and he frowned slightly. She seemed to be very ill, as her mother had been, and then … And then he never woke up again …

"I know... "But …" The little girl lowered her head in discomfort. Of course, she knew that the best thing to do was to find a doctor. But no doctor was willing to help...

"But it doesn't matter, with this... Mother will soon have a fever! " He took a deep breath and the corner of his mouth curled up into a brilliant smile. The little girl continued wiping Qiao Niang's body with wine …

"That thing... Would that work? It's very hard to drink! " The little beggar slightly frowned, disbelief written all over his face. He had seen those people drink it with his own eyes. Could it be that this thing turned out to be medicine?

"Un, it's useful!" The little girl nodded, she believed that it would definitely be useful. Although the concentration of this wine was far from being comparable to alcohol, it should still be useful in disinfection and cooling.

Furthermore … And it must be useful.

"Hey, what's your name?"

"I'm called Little Girl. "What about you?"

"I, I don't know my name either. Mom used to call me Little Bastard, but then Mom died and everyone called me Little Pauper."

"Is that so … "Then tell me your surname in the future, I'll give you one name, Yang Qingyun."

"Yeah, I like Yang Qingyun!"

Inside the dilapidated temple, Qiao Niang was sleeping soundly under the cover of straw. Two small heads were huddled together in the corner to keep warm for each other.

Deep mountains, thatched huts, wild flowers blooming under the fences.

This is a little beggar, eh... In other words, Yang Qingyun's home, rather than a home, was only a small hut that was about to collapse. But now, this place had become the only place the little girl and Qiao Niang could stay …

"Auntie, from now on, you can live here peacefully." Yang Qingyun patted his chest with a smug look on his face.

"Qing Yun, thank you."

Qiao Niang nodded her head gratefully. Even though it was a bit old and worn out, it was still better than walking on the streets.

Her illness had made her much more clear-headed. When he thought about how he was angered by her and wanted to bring her home, if he hadn't met this child, then his mother might not have been able to make it home.

"It's fine, it's fine."

Yang Qingyun felt a little embarrassed. His small face flushed red as he carefully looked at the little girl. Seeing her grinning, her black and white eyes shining, he was in a good mood.

"Mother, the little girl likes it here!"

The little girl held Qiao Niang's hand, jumping in excitement.

That's right, she really liked it here. Seeing this, she couldn't help but think: Under the fences of the chrysanthemums, we can leisurely see the south mountain.

It would be good if he could live in seclusion in this place his entire life. At the very least, he wouldn't have to face those filthy people like Yang Family.

"Mm, it's good that you like her, it's good that you like her."

It was rare for Qiao Niang to be in such a good mood. She looked at the little girl lovingly, one hand stroking the little girl's head. Seeing Qing Yun standing there with a face full of envy, she reached out her other hand to touch him.

"In the future, mother, little girl and Qing Yun will live here."

Ol 'Three didn't know when it would return, nor did it know if it would return. Now that he had been chased out of his home by Madam Ann, he definitely wouldn't be able to go back if Ol 'Three didn't come back.

This was half a day's journey away from the Yang Family Stronghold, and he could reach the city in two hours. If Ol 'Three came back, he would also be able to hear the news very quickly. Furthermore, this place was located deep in the mountains, and could be considered an exclusive residence. There was no need to worry about others gossiping about it …

Qiao Niang thought back and forth again. This place was indeed a good choice.

"You two can play for a while. Mom just saw quite a few wild vegetables in the cove over there. Mom went to pick some to cook them." Although they were all poor, there were quite a few wild herbs in the mountain and at least they wouldn't starve to death. Fortunately, during the Yang Family, Qiao Niang would follow the people from the village up the mountain to look for wild vegetables during the month of food shortage.

"Mm, okay. Mother, be careful. "

The girl nodded obediently and waved her hand. After Qiao Niang had left, she dragged Yang Qingyun to clean up the house …

"Sigh …"

The sun was shining brightly, warming her body. She sat on the doorstep with her hands on her face, looking at the misty mountains in the distance, and sighed deeply.

"Little girl, what's wrong?"

It was not easy to have a family now, and Yang Qingyun treasured them dearly. He went out early in the morning to pick up a lot of dried wood, and seeing that the girl seemed to be in a bad mood, he couldn't help but step forward.

"Nothing much …"

The girl shook her head and sighed again.

Sigh, it seems that I have really thought too well. The life under the fencing of the chrysanthemums is not that easy. Recently, she had been either cooking or stewing wild vegetables. If this carried on, she would soon become a wild vegetable.

"Brother, do you think there's any way to earn money?"

Ancient man: Warm and lustful.

He had solved the current problem of survival, but he couldn't just continue nibbling on wild herbs, right? What do we do when there are no more wild vegetables in winter?

Furthermore … Furthermore, she was unwilling, she was unwilling!

The more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became. Madam Ann chased them out like this, but no one even spoke a word for them …

"Earning money?" Qing Yun scratched his head in confusion. Earning money, he had never thought about it. In the past, his mother had always been living here with him, and it took him ten to fifteen days to go to the city to buy the things he needed. When his mother died and all the food in the house was finished, he went to the city by himself. He had no money left, so he could only beg …

"Sigh, forget it. Big Brother, take me around for a walk! "

The girl shook her head helplessly. That's right! Qing Yun was just a seven or eight-year-old child. If he knew how to earn money, would he still be a beggar?

Qiao Niang had been busy these past few days searching everywhere for food. She only warned her and Qing Yun not to go far. Now that she wasn't around, she decided to familiarize herself with the environment.

"Mm, okay. There are many flowers behind the mountain, I'll take you to see them. "

Qing Yun nodded his head and ran while pulling the girl with excitement all over his face. After passing through the dense forest, the little girl was stunned by the scene before her …

Flowers, flowers everywhere, a sea of flowers... Layers upon layers of flowers competed to bloom, never disturbing the serenity of the past …

"That's great! "Great!"

Looking at the endless sea of flowers, the little girl excitedly jumped up, her black and white clear eyes flashing with light …

There was a way. She knew how to transfer to the first pot of gold!

"Big brother, quick, help me pick the flowers!"

"En, alright!"

Qing Yun saw the excitement on the little girl's face and also became happy. Without caring what she did with the flowers, he started to take action without a second word.

He carefully plucked the petals off one by one, so as not to hurt the petals. Then rinse the petals with cool water, then spread the petals one by one in a cool place to dry the water.

After a series of preparations, it was finally possible to start...

Cut the petals into pieces and wrap them up in a clean cloth. It would be best to use a clean gauze cloth, but no gauze could be found. The girl could only use boiling water to burn a piece of cloth to replace it.

After wrapping it up, put it in a jar that was prepared beforehand. Then soak it in cold boiled water and leave it for the day...

"Sister, is that really okay?"

Qing Yun looked at the little girl with worry, seeing her in a fluster, he was puzzled. Could she really get some fragrant water like that?

"Un, don't worry, it won't be a problem!"

Actually, she wasn't completely sure either. She studied agriculture and had a certain understanding of all kinds of animals and plants. She had come across this method by chance, of course, if alcohol and distilled water were the best, but the current situation did not allow it, so she could only use cold water to replace it. Alcohol... "There was still a little bit of wine left in the porcelain bottle, so the girl decided to boil it to replace the alcohol …

"What's this for?"

Qing Yun was a little conflicted. He had thought that the little girl liked flowers, so he had picked a lot for her. But he didn't expect that the little girl would cut all the flowers and even soak them in water …

"We'll know tomorrow!"

The little girl smiled mysteriously. She had only seen this method by chance. As for what the result would be, it all depended on tomorrow.

"Come, let's go to the courtyard and take a look."

After finishing her work, although she did not know the result, she was still in a good mood. At least, it was a good start.

"En, alright!"

Qing Yun nodded and held the little girl's hand as they walked carefully into the yard.

The girl walked straight to the corner of the wall …

At the corner of the wall, there were weeds growing everywhere. A few days ago, Qing Shui and the little girl had pulled them out and dug a small piece out.

"Yi, it's sprouting, it's sprouting!"

Qing Yun's sharp eyes noticed a few tiny sprouts popping out of the ground, and he cheered in joy.

"Really! It really grew up! "

The little girl also noticed it and immediately jumped up in excitement.

Although the chili peppers were broken by the little girl, the little girl still secretly hid two chilies. After arriving at the Qing Yun residence, she had been trying to plant some seeds. She hadn't thought that they would actually sprout.

"I'll tell my aunt!"

Qing Yun ran to the back of the house excitedly. Qiao Niang had been busy these past few days collecting wild vegetables. Wild vegetables would have to take advantage of the season, and after a while, they would become inedible.

"No!"

The little girl pulled Qing Yun back, "Don't tell mother, this is our secret."
