There's always someone who wants to break up with me

"30 taels?! An Xiren, are you crazy?! How much is your little food worth?" The voice of the bandit leader suddenly raised his voice, and Yuan Yao felt inexplicably familiar with it.

Yuan Yao and the three of them had their ears pressed against the door panel, and the door panel made a slight sound.

The bandit leader has a good ear, and this kid can be considered to have touched it. If they don't come to him, his old bones will probably be similar to this place.

An Xiren frowned, clenched his teeth, and looked as if he had some deep hatred. He was so present and saw the bandit leader opposite for a while.

"Then how much did you say?!" An Xiren said.

The bandit leader's voice was stern, with unquestionable determination: "50 taels of silver, you and I will get [-] cents, any more is impossible!"

An Xiren was still hesitating, and said, "Is it too little to give me [-]%?"

The bandit leader snorted coldly: "Seventy percent? Prefect An really believes in himself too much, right?! The three sevens I'm talking about are your threes and my sevens."

"You!" An Xiren panicked and patted the table in front of him that was about to fall apart, causing the three people outside the door to quickly retreat in fright.

An Xiren quarreled with the bandit leader, Xu Cen quickly fled with Yuan Yao and found a place to hide.When Yuan Yao regained consciousness, Yan Jiu disappeared.

"Where's Yan Jiu?" Although he didn't have any friendship with this girl, this is more or less a human life. If she saw an accident in front of his eyes, Yuan Yao would feel very sorry.

Apart from being treated as a thug by Yuan Yao in the ruined temple, Xu Cen basically watched the audience, and with years of martial arts training, Xu Cen's eyesight is much better than ordinary people, and this ordinary person naturally includes Yuan Yao and Yan Jiu .

Yuan Yao didn't see Yan Jiu's little moves, and Yan Jiu felt that no one could see her little moves.

In fact, Yan Jiu was not arrested, she came here voluntarily.In other words, those big men who brought them here were brought by Yan Jiu.

When the temple was broken down, Yan Jiu winked at those big men who thought they were perfect, but Xu Cen caught all of them.

Yuan Yao actually started to worry about an irrelevant stranger when the enemy was unclear, and he still worried about him when the stranger was likely to be an enemy.Xu Cen didn't know whether to say that the prince was kind or naive.

Yuan Yao waited for a long time but did not wait for Yan Jiu, the expression on his face became more and more anxious.

Seeing him so stupid, Xu Cen couldn't help reminding him: "That woman's life is probably more comfortable than yours now."

Unexpectedly, Yuan Yao was not surprised, but just looked down at the ground and said, "I know. She brought those people, so she can naturally retreat here unscathed."

This time it was Xu Cen's turn to be surprised: "How did you find out?"

Yuan Yao rolled his eyes indecently, and said helplessly, "I'm not blind, who can't see her movements so big?"

Xu Cen pulled out a teasing smile and said, "Then why do you still ask? Do you care about others?" Xu Cen felt a little abnormal when he said this, his heart was sour, and he was not very comfortable.

Yan Jiu did not return, and Yuan Yao was a little disappointed.He just stayed in the basement for a long time, and his body was still cold, but the sun was hitting his body, and his whole body was warmed up.

The view at the end of the stairs is good. When you come out, you have a wide view. There is smoke floating in the sky. A few big men in coarse clothes can come back from collecting firewood. They talk and laugh along the way. It doesn’t look like a bandit den, but it looks like a happy life small village.

But now that Yuan Yao is on the ground, it is difficult for people not to see them.

The man walking in front saw the expression of these two unfamiliar people suddenly changed, and took out a thick wooden stick from a large bundle of firewood on his body, as if the two of them were running.

His companion stopped him, and said in a low voice: "Just put on a show, don't really chase after him." Then he chinned at Yuan Yao and said, "This is said to be our elder brother's little nephew."

The man who wanted to hit someone was stunned for a moment: "If it's really the elder brother and nephew, why should we knock him out and resist? Are you free?"

The other man was really caught by his question, and he couldn't figure out the twists and turns, so he said helplessly: "Whatever, brother is from the city, let's just listen to him."

Seeing someone coming here, Xu Cen hurriedly dragged Yuan Yao to run away, the road down the mountain was not easy, when the two arrived at the foot of the mountain, it was already dark, Yuan Yao hadn't eaten all day, and his clothes were thin and cold Hungry again.

"Gulu." Xu Cen looked around for the source of the sound, and found that it was Yuan Yao's stomach growling. He sat on the ground and opened his bag.

"Eh?!! I remember I put two pancakes in the bag!" Xu Cen rummaged through the package but couldn't find his pancakes, so he was surprised.

Yuan Yao couldn't believe it when he heard it, and said, "Mr. Xu is actually putting food in the bag?"

Xu Cen was anxious when he couldn't find anything: "Don't say so many things that are useless, just say whether you can eat them or not."

Yuan Yao was so hungry that he swallowed the word "no" alive.

Xu Cen rummaged through the package three times but still couldn't find his pancakes. He sat down on the ground in the grove and lamented: "Hey, I really don't have anything to eat this time."

On the mountain, the bandit leader was biting Xu Cen's pancakes, and while eating, he complained, "How can these two little bastards eat it?" He said and took another bite of the pancakes.

Yuan Yao was so hungry that he didn't have the heart to think, and couldn't sleep, so he could only follow Xu Cen around.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, the two finally saw Renyan.

This is a small village, deep in the mountains, with inconvenient transportation, but it was not affected too much by the flood.

Yuan Yao was too hungry to walk, so Xu Cen dragged Yuan Yao to knock on the door.

It was an elderly woman who opened the door. She saw two young men in ragged clothes outside, and shut the door tightly with a bang.

Xu Cen was stunned, unable to advance or retreat.There are no other people around here, and Yuan Yao is weak and hasn't eaten for a day. If he stays outside for a night with his temperament, something will definitely happen.Yuan Yao is the crown prince, the confidant of Emperor Jing'an, he made a mistake, and Xu Cen could die.

Yuan Yao grabbed Xu Cen's wrist and pulled him out of this family's yard. Xu Cen shook his head, pushed away Yuan Yao's hand that was pulling him, and said softly: "No, we can't sleep outside today."

Yuan Yao is also a teenager at heart, he is very unwilling to admit defeat, he doesn't care about anything when his temper rises, and he will drag Xu Cen away without saying a word.

Xu Cen held Yuan Yao's wrists with his left hand. Yuan Yao's skin was pale, and he turned red from such a grip.

Xu Cen's right hand was not idle either, he knocked on the door again.

This time when the woman came out to open the door, her face was full of anger, and the flames of hatred seemed to be shining in her eyes.The two of Yuan Yao looked at each other, their hearts skipped a beat, there was something to do.

Before the woman opened her mouth to chase them away, Xu Cen said first, "Ma'am, my younger brother had eaten a day ago. He has been weak since he was a child. We just escaped from the bandit's den. Please take pity on us." Then he showed her Yuan Yao who was hanging on him.

Yuan Yao was originally born white, and after leaving Beijing, he traveled all the way, and he couldn't eat well or sleep well, so now his complexion is very ugly.

Xu Cen's words were [-]% true and [-]% false, it was the easiest lie to be believed, and both of them had good looks, which gained the favor of others.Now Yuan Yao's wrist is tightly gripped by Xu Cen, more than half of his whole body is hanging on Xu Cen's body, it really feels a little uncomfortable to watch.

The middle-aged woman hesitated for a long time before taking a step back, leaving a small gap in the door, and said, "Then come in."

The woman walked to the kitchen, and brought out a bowl of stewed wild vegetable soup and two hard cornmeal pancakes.

"Families in the mountains don't have anything to eat, so you just make do with it."

Xu Cen thanked him full of gratitude, and was about to eat the pancake after receiving it.Yuan Yao secretly pinched him, glared at him, and then quickly apologized to the woman: "Ma'am, you can't do it, you can't do it! It's very troublesome for us to stay overnight, how can we still eat your food?"

These days, a bite is more important than gold.Yuan Yao never dared to accept such a big favor from a stranger.

The woman waved her hand, and said with some displeasure: "You can eat it if you tell me, what are you doing? Look at your delicate skin and tender meat, don't you think that my food is not delicious?"

Yuan Yao said repeatedly that he didn't dare, and reached out to take the pancakes and began to bite.To be honest, this food is really unpalatable, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is hard to swallow, but the two of them still ate it clean with the wild vegetable soup.

There was no candle in the old woman's house, and as the sky darkened, she moved a wooden bench and sat on it, rubbing the crudely carved wooden hairpin in her hand.

Yuan Yao hastily swept through the decorations in the house, and the dishes and chopsticks in this room are all in pairs, but now there is only one owner in the house.

The old woman carefully traced every corner of the hairpin with her fingers.The light in the room was dim, and Yuan Yao saw two bright marks flickering on the old woman's cheek.Her cloudy eyes were full of tears, and tears were running down her face. Yuan Yao didn't know how to comfort her, and could only listen to the sobbing in the room.

Yuan Yao poked the soft flesh on Xu Cen's waist, motioning him to ask what's going on.Xu Cen walked up to the old woman and knelt down.

He asked softly, "Ma'am?"

When the woman came back to her senses, she realized that she had burst into tears, and hurriedly wiped the tears from her face with her hands, and the tears were all over her face.

She stroked the hairpin, her voice was calm, and her tears kept falling like broken beads.

"My poor girl!" A sigh revealed the woman's deep despair.

The hut was not big, and the two Yuan Yao who were in it for a while were surrounded by despair.
