The hot weather gradually cools down as the sun goes down, but this night is not peaceful. The low crowing of wild animals makes everyone unable to sleep, and the gate will be patronized from time to time, more diligently than a rooster crowing.

The baby was crying, and the corpse puppets outside the courtyard were still playing rhythm with her. It was so annoying that it made people angry, but everyone just drank water and didn't eat. They didn't want to waste their energy on getting angry. Besides, the child was hungry , No one can stand drinking water alone.

Xia Ningle softly hummed a slow rocking song, paced back and forth at the door of the room, and kept comforting the child. She was actually anxious, but she couldn't be anxious. Tomorrow morning, she had to figure out a way to get food .

Xia Ningle's attention was all on this matter, she didn't notice the people around who were tired and couldn't fall asleep, and began to doze off after listening to the song she hummed, her voice didn't sound like that when she caught a cold Hoarseness is a very soft and transparent sound of nature that can hook people's hearts, making people feel as if they are the child in her arms, being cared for by their mother.

Si Qinglian leaned against the door and listened.

Xia Ningle's songs are just like her own, with bold and unrestrained freedom and joy, not the restraint that people who grew up here who have been restrained all year round should have. He was deeply attracted, that's why he asked her to teach piano singing, but unfortunately, Si Qinglian didn't have much time to learn.

In addition to Si Qinglian who was fascinated by listening, He Shikun also looked at Xia Ningle with obsessive eyes. Her singing voice is eternal in his heart and is irreplaceable number one. As long as he listens to her singing voice, he feels that he is redeemed.

Xia Ningle doesn't know that the songs she hums can bring so much favor to others. She just uses songs to coax her children, and also uses songs to remind herself that this is the world in books, and she must return to reality, no matter what it is She couldn't even forget about it.

The child fell asleep again. A child of this age needs a lot of sleep, not to mention hungry and crying for a long time. Si Qinglian came to Xia Ningle's side and said, "You should take a good rest first, I will take her Take him to sleep in your room."

After Xia Ningle gave the child to Si Qinglian, she had an inexplicable illusion in her heart, as if the child belonged to the two of them and had to be raised together, but she quickly got rid of this weird thought.

She went to the well to fetch water to drink. She has been drinking water all day today. In order to prevent stomach cramps caused by hunger, she drank a lot of water, which caused her to feel water shaking in her body after walking two steps , I feel a little uncomfortable, and I really want to pierce my stomach with a needle to let the water out.

She had asked before that the package that Four Seasons carried contained only daily necessities and no food, and these daily necessities were basically used by Si Qinglian, which naturally included menstrual cloths.

The menstrual cloth that Si Qinglian gave Xia Ningle was wet, so she let her cool it for a while in the morning, but it dried up later. Xia Ningle wrapped it in oiled paper and put it away. Her lower abdomen was aching. Have to be prepared in advance.

The menstruation cloth had to be filled with plant ash, but it was inconvenient to carry, so she wanted to decorate it with paper, which was hard to ask Song Yuhang, Xia Ningle could only go to the toilet to find some toilet paper, and then just carry some extra on her body.

But she endured the smell and wandered around in the latrine, but she couldn’t see where there was a place to put paper. After being reminded by the system, she realized that the latrine outside was for servants, and there would be no straw paper. Ordinary people couldn’t afford it. .

Xia Ningle was speechless. This world is an imaginary ancient times. Why is there such a setting that poor people can't afford toilet paper? In desperation, she simply went to the study, but on the way, Si Qinglian suddenly stopped her.

"Seeing that you wandered around for a long time looking for this?"

What Si Qinglian gave her was naturally straw paper, wrapped in oiled paper, clean and tidy, it solved Xia Ningle's urgent need, she took the straw paper and said: "Thank you, Your Highness."

Si Qinglian shook his head, and said: "No matter what happens in the future, you can talk to Ben Gong, and you don't have to sneak around to find... um... straw paper."

"Well, I will." Xia Ningle was a little puzzled that the other party deliberately lengthened the ending sound, did he care about what he was referring to?

"Also, in the future, Liang Yan..." Si Qinglian said with a slightly awkward expression, "Don't put the monthly affairs of Liang Yan in such a conspicuous place, do you understand?"

"It's my fault, there won't be a next time." Xia Ningle almost forgot that this month's newsletter is Si Qinglian's after all, she is a princess after all, and put such a private thing in public for men to watch It was true that she was lacking in consideration, but being reminded by the other party, she felt weird and ruthless in her heart.

Forget it, anyway, other people don't know about it, they all think it's Xia Ningle's menstrual news, as long as she doesn't say anything, Si Qinglian won't be too embarrassed.

"Well, that's fine." Si Qinglian breathed a sigh of relief. Although she had never used those menstrual schedules, they were her private items after all, so she just hung them outside to dry.

"Your Highness..." Xia Ningle struggled for a moment, "Actually, I've always wanted to ask... um... was that monthly newsletter used by His Highness?" As soon as she said it, she regretted it, but it was impossible to take it back any more. up.

Xia Ningle doesn't know why she cares so much, obviously she was able to ask Siji for money without any pressure before.

Si Qinglian saw that her complexion was reddish, which added a bit of flavoring to these days full of death and boring, she approached Xia Ningle, and whispered in his ear: "Miss Xia cares so much, could it be that she dislikes the ones I used? Menstrual cloth?"

"No...no." Xia Ning was tongue-tied.

Just when Xia Ningle didn't know what to do, the corpse puppet at the door suddenly rioted and let out a roar, which was vaguely mixed with the cry of a child for help. Si Qinglian was the first to hear it. In his eyes, Si Qinglian walked like flying, stepped on the tree trunk, and lightly jumped up the wall.

"So handsome!" It was the first time Xia Ningle saw a person flying directly onto the wall without using a wire. This was even more shocking than the special effects of a movie.

At this time, the sun was just setting, and Si Qinglian squinted his eyes and could barely see the figures of two children running fast in front of him, and a large group of corpse puppets followed closely behind the children. The corpse puppet was also attracted.

"Frank, take the rope!"

Xia Ning couldn't go up the wall, he didn't know what happened outside, he held the rope upright, and also used the tree trunk to climb up the wall, but his skills were not as smooth as Si Qinglian's.

When Geng Zhi saw the child running from a distance, he immediately understood what was happening. He quickly tied two knots to make a trap, and then cut open his palm with a dagger, letting the blood fall on the ground. A group of corpse puppets who were about to besiege the child Then he turned around and threw himself under Geng Zhi to lick the ground, or opened his mouth and waited for the blood to drip down.

Song Yuhang brought a ladder, and Xia Ningle climbed up to see that Si Qinglian and Geng Zhi had already thrown the ropes, and put them on the two children without any mistakes. The ropes were not very long, and the children were very close, so There is only one chance, and Geng Zhi yelled: "Grab it!"

The two pulled their hands hard, and the two children were pulled up at an incredible speed. They just flew from in front of Xia Ningle into Si Qinglian's arms. The two children were saved, but they were still crying. Putting the man on the ground, he tidied up his clothes.

Geng Zhi also put down the child and went to bandage the wound.

These were two boys, about six or seven years old, both of whom were crying. Xia Ning was happy to see this, touched their heads belatedly, and said softly: "It's okay, this place is safe, monsters outside can't get in." Come."

Her tenderness could not make the two children stop crying, Si Qinglian was upset, and ordered coldly: "Don't cry, or you will be thrown out."

As soon as the two children heard this, they stopped crying. Those two pairs of small red eyes stared at Si Qinglian, as if they were really afraid of being thrown out by her. Xia Ningle comforted him and said, "That's Sister Lian, your help Benefactor, she is hard-spoken and soft-hearted, and she will not throw you out."

"Ahem!" Si Qinglian wanted to remind Xia Ningle that she was not a soft-spoken person, so don't destroy her majesty.

Xia Ningle glanced at her and ignored her.

The two children didn't say a word, their small eyes looked at the clothes on the bodyguards. It was the people in this clothes who killed their mother with a knife. It was revenge.

Xia Ningle saw the fear in their eyes and said, "If my brothers and sisters are all bad people, I won't save you, right?"

The two children nodded hesitantly, then wiped away their tears, obediently bowed to Si Qinglian, and said in a sour tone, "Daddy said thank you for being helped by others, thank you sister Lian."

Si Qinglian fell silent when she called Sister Lian. Xia Ningle felt happy when she saw this. She found that Si Qinglian was actually a good talker, but she had a high shelf, so she had to be praised appropriately, otherwise the princess would lose face. Can't hold on.

"What's your name?"

"My name is Xiaoxi, and he is my brother Xiaodong."

"small thing?"

The two children nodded. They took out a small bag from their waists, looked back and forth between Si Qinglian and Xia Ningle, and finally handed the things to Xia Ningle, who looked very kind, and said, "Daddy said , Zhien wants to repay her kindness, but we only have a little rice on us, please don't dislike me, sister."

Xia Ningle was naturally embarrassed to accept the child's gift, but she still had a baby who needed to eat, so she took a bag and said, "Thank you, this is enough for me."

Even if this bag of rice is ground into flour to make rice milk, it is only enough for the child to eat for two days. Xia Ningle handed the rice bag to Song Yuhang to make rice milk, and then asked the little thing about the village.

In fact, half a month ago, many villagers in Yugang showed signs of being thin and coughing up blood, but the village chief was afraid of being isolated by He Shikun, so he kept this matter a secret, and secretly observed the villagers' conditions. In the end, He Shikun didn't care Indiscriminate indiscrimination is related to people's faults.

"Sister, Daddy wants us to wait for the village head. Can my sister send us there?" The child raised another bag of rice in his hand and gave it to the kind-hearted her. "We can pay my sister."

Xia Ning sighed happily. The two children were running alone at night. I'm afraid their father is in danger. She didn't know how to answer, so she could only smile conciliatingly.

Si Qinglian said coldly: "Your father will never come to you again, and there is no need for people in my palace to risk you to send you off."

In a word, the two children were so frightened that they started crying again. In their eyes, Si Qinglian was probably a super villain and a super liar, who lied to them that their father would not come back.

"Don't cry, Sister Lian lied to you. Your father will definitely come back to you. Now the sisters are tired and need to rest. Can we discuss it with the village chief?" Seeing this, Xia Ningle had to squat Bottom/body coaxing again.

The two children sobbed and nodded.

Xiaoxi sniffed, took Xia Ningle's hand, and whispered in her ear: "Sister, Dad said there is only one boat left in the sea. When the time comes, sister will go with us. Don't take that bad sister with you."

Xia Ningle was surprised, she didn't expect that there was only one boat left, she said yes with a smile, then asked Siji to take them to rest, then turned around and told Si Qinglian about the boat.
