After the marriage was severed, I fled with my golden finger to protect my mother

"Mingyue, don't be rude."

The young lady's eyes were still red. She scolded the little girl Mingyue in a low voice, then glanced at Yuxiu, and a look of pity flashed across her eyes.

This girl is too thin. Her whole body is dry and there is less than 200 grams of flesh on her. The clothes she wears are old and pale from being washed so hard. She must be a little girl from a poor family.

In fact, the clothes Yuxiu was wearing today were not very old, but the cotton clothes did not look very bright. They were certainly not on the same level as the ladies who were used to wearing silk and brocade clothes. They were even incomparable to the clothes worn by the little girl Mingyue.

"These jewels were given to me by my mother on my birthday. You can't just give them away casually. If you really don't have money to eat, take these back..."

Although the young lady wanted to commit suicide, she still had some sense. She pulled out a purse from her waist and threw it towards Yuxiu despite Mingyue's attempts to stop her.

"Oh, Miss, this person came here for no apparent reason. I don't know what her intentions were. You really gave her money..."

Mingyue was so anxious that she kept muttering, but the young lady ignored her. After giving Yuxiu some money, she raised her hand to grab the rope on the branch and began to tie the noose clumsily.

Yuxiu looked at the purse that was thrown not far in front of her feet. It was made of pink silk and had very delicate patterns embroidered on it.

I picked it up and took a look. There were about ten golden peanuts and five or six small and cute gold and silver ingots inside. If all of these were exchanged for food, it would be enough for the family to eat for a long time.

Next, Yuxiu did not try to stop the young lady from committing suicide. Instead, she watched her break several branches in a short period of time. Each time, she just managed to get her neck into the noose, and the branch broke with a snap.

"Little system, this task is too easy, isn't it? There's no need to stop that girl. She can't reach the big trees in this area, and the small trees can't hold her either..."

For the sake of the purse in her hand, Yuxiu endured and finally forced the smile back on her face. She quickly lowered her head and called out the small system in her heart.

"Host, this young lady is the legitimate daughter of the Zhenbei General's Mansion. Her name is Wen Wanwan. Miss Wen's parents both fought hard on the battlefield. She is the only child left. She has lived with her grandmother and her second uncle and aunt for many years. She is also a pitiful child."

The small system told her about the general's mansion. Thinking of the stories she had seen on TV in her previous life, Yuxiu speculated before she could finish:

"If nothing unexpected happened, Miss Wen's parents must have died in the war, right? Did her second aunt's family occupy her home? Or did her second aunt's daughter steal her fiancé..."

If this small system was a person, it would roll its eyes at Yuxiu, but it was just a small system now, so it could only listen to Yuxiu obediently, and then continued:

"Neither. Her grandmother and second aunt's family wanted to do it but they didn't have the guts. Miss Wen's parents are still alive and well, and her fiancé is also fine. But the girl fell in love with another man, and that man didn't like her, so..."

Yuxiu was speechless. This relationship was too complicated. However, it was none of her business. She should just take the person away quickly and consider it as completing the mission.

After thinking about it, I realized that Miss Wen seemed to be quite kind-hearted, so I came up with a good idea.

"Wuwuwu...I don't want to live anymore..."

Yuxiu covered her face and cried softly for a few times, then ran to Miss Wen, stretched out her hand to pull the rope towards her, and without waiting for anyone to stop her, she was about to hang it around her neck.

"Don't...don't...don't..."

"Come down quickly, let's talk about it..."

Miss Wen and the maid Mingyue, who had just been crying, were both shocked. They opened their eyes wide in fear and hurriedly tried to comfort Yuxiu.

"Wuwuwu...what else is there to say? My father is missing, and my mother is pregnant with two unborn brothers and sisters. My grandmother and uncles don't like us. They despise us for eating too much and they want to beat me to death to exchange for food..."

Yuxiu didn't make up any lies and just told the original owner the miserable life story. There was no need to exaggerate as it was already tragic enough.

"We are an orphan and a widow, and we have been on this journey without enough food or sleep. If I were not strong, I would have been cooked and eaten by others... Wuwuwu... Living is too tiring, I might as well just die..."

Yuxiu cried mournfully twice, then put her head into the noose, and was quickly pulled down by two people.

"You don't have to commit suicide. Didn't they say your father was taken to the capital? It seems that your father is about to be found. If you die, what will happen to your mother?"

Miss Wen no longer cared about her own troubles. She quickly grabbed Yuxiu's arm and tried to persuade her kindly:

"Look at the city gate in front of you. If you go in from there, you can go and find out about your father's situation."

Yuxiu stopped talking, but just covered her face and cried softly. In fact, she was secretly observing the two of them through her fingers. She saw that Miss Wen's round face was full of concern and her tightly furrowed brows seemed like she was thinking about what to do, and she couldn't help wanting to laugh.

"Forget it. I will be a good person to the end. I will not seek death today. I will take you to the city to find my father... No, to find your father."

Seeing that the city gate would be closed if they delayed any longer, Miss Wen was very worried. She looked up at the noose hanging on the branch, sighed and said:

"Let's go down the mountain. Mingyue, quickly untie this rope and take it with you."

It seems that I can't find death today, so I might as well do a good deed and send this poor girl into the city.

After what just happened, she didn't dare to stay with the noose. What if after they left, someone else used the noose to hang himself, then the sin would probably be attributed to her.

This time Yuxiu didn't need to think of any solution. The two men grabbed her arms, one on each side, and carried her down the hillside. They said something to Cui, and Mingyue drove the carriage, and the group headed for the city gate of the capital.

The few people who were coming down the hillside at this time didn't know that after they walked for a while, a group of people came out from the depths of the forest, led by a young man dressed in brocade clothes.

He has delicate and handsome features, with long sword-like eyebrows slanting down. He looks to be only about ten years old, but he has a murderous aura.

Looking at the carriage heading towards the city gate in the distance, and thinking of the girl's every move just now, he couldn't help but curl his lips slightly.

"I didn't expect this girl to be so capable. She managed to get to the capital so quickly."
