[Red House] No one knows that it is lychee

Zhao's mother didn't have any means of transportation when she went out, which caused Lizhi to walk behind her.Lizhi didn't feel that there was any hard work, but seemed very happy about shopping.

The happy mood was so obvious that even Zhao's mother couldn't help but look sideways at it: "You're just out for an errand, so you're so happy?"

"Mom doesn't know, it's the first time I've been outside," Li Zhi smiled, "I look around here, it's really novel."

Zhao's mother pursed her lips: "Today I'm out to do things for the old lady, so you just follow me."

Lizhi nodded, and obediently grabbed the corner of Zhao's mother's clothes - she still looks like a helpless little girl, if something happens, Lizhi doesn't think she has the ability to deal with it .

After all, how unfriendly this world is to women.

Zhao's mother seems to have a clear goal, and she never hesitates in her steps.Lizhi followed behind Zhao's mother, and seized all the time to look around.

There are some shops on both sides of the street, most of which are related to basic necessities of life. Lizhi can clearly smell the aroma of food entangled in the air, which makes her even more eager to try.

If I remember correctly, she also has a small pouch with a little bit of silver in it...

Zhao's mother glanced at Lizhi, and saw that the little girl was following her obediently, but her eyes were busy rolling, looking at all the scenes greedily.

Zhao's mother couldn't help feeling soft when she thought of Lizhi's "life experience".

"Are you tired?" Mother Zhao whispered, "Persist for a while, and we'll be there soon."

Lizhi nodded and smiled sweetly at Mother Zhao.

Turning another corner, Mother Zhao entered a small alley, and the walls on both sides of the alley were piled up high, so that the sunlight could only leak a little, illuminating only a small area of ​​the ground.

Moss grows from all directions, and there is moisture in the air.Li Zhi Jiang followed Mother Zhao into this small alley, and felt a little dark.

Mother Zhao took her to a house at the end of the alley. The wooden door in front of them seemed to be crumbling. Mother Zhao knocked on the door. After waiting for a long time, someone finally opened the door.

"...Who are you?" Behind the door, a woman stretched out half of her head, looking a little vigilant, "What's the matter?"

"This is the Liu family?" Zhao's mother showed a faint smile, "I'm a servant of the Jia family, and the old lady asked me to come."

The woman's complexion suddenly became ugly, and she wanted to close the door without saying a word, but Zhao's mother had quick eyesight and quick hands, and immediately blocked the door.

"What do you want!" The woman gritted her teeth, "I have nothing to do with the Jia family!"

Zhao's mother sighed softly: "Even if you hate Jia's house, you should think about your children."

The woman was stunned for a moment, and she subconsciously looked back, only to see a child with a sky braid standing behind her, sucking his thumb, and staring blankly.

"Maybe we go in?" Mother Zhao asked again.The woman looked at them with complicated eyes, and finally stepped out of the way: "Come in."

-

Lizhi sat on the earthen steps, looking at the child in front of her.

The child raised his head and stared blankly at Lizhi.

The two of them had been staring at each other for a while, but it was Lizhi who gave up first: "No, no, no, my eyes are sore!"

She rubbed her eyes, but as soon as she closed them, she felt the child in front of her gently hold her hand, and then said in a childish voice, "Hoo hoo! Hoo hoo! It's all good!"

Lizhi's heart melted instantly, and she subconsciously hugged the baby in front of her to prevent him from falling.

In the room, Mother Zhao and the woman were sitting opposite each other, neither of them spoke.They could vaguely hear the laughter coming from outside, the woman's expression was a little erratic, she seemed very absent-minded.

"Miss San, the old lady asked me to bring you something," Mother Zhao said anyway, "She just found out that your life is difficult, so she called me here."

The woman sneered: "I'm just a concubine, and it's really my fault that I can alarm my mother."

Mother Zhao took a deep look at the woman, her tone was still calm: "Miss San, you don't have to be so tough, you still have to live how you want to live."

The woman closed her mouth, no longer like a hedgehog covered in thorns, but remained silent.

"Miss San," Zhao's mother continued, "you still have Mrs. Liu's flesh and blood to support. The old lady sent me here secretly just because she knew what was in your heart."

A sneer appeared on the face of the third lady who had already aged early due to hard work: "I was in the house back then, and I was taken care of by the old lady. Now you want to simply coax me back?"

"Don't even think about it!" The woman's voice suddenly became louder, alarming Lizhi and the little milk baby who were playing outside.The little milkman looked at Lizhi with a confused face, and Lizhi quickly began to divert the little milkboy's attention: "Come on, guess the candy is in my hand?"

The little milk baby's attention was immediately attracted by the sugar.

In the house, Mother Zhao placed the small bundle she carried on the only table, and she slowly untied the bundle, revealing a few ingots of gold inside.Mother Zhao said softly: "Miss San, you don't have to have trouble with money."

The woman stared at Mother Zhao for a while, then stretched out her hand and accepted the gold on the table, but her attitude was still not very polite: "Since the things have been delivered, I will see them off."

Mother Zhao was not angry, she stood up and walked out of the house.Seeing that Lizhi was stuffing the sugar in her hand into the baby's mouth, Mother Zhao raised her eyebrows slightly: "Lichi, let's go."

Lizhi responded crisply, and secretly greeted the little Naiwa, before following Mother Zhao and leaving.With a piece of candy in his mouth, the little milkman stared blankly at the beautiful sister going out. He didn't raise his hand until the lychee was gone, and waved it lightly.

Along the way, Li Zhi was silent. She had heard the conversation in the room, but this kind of thing... the inside story must be complicated, she had better hear it and pretend she didn't hear it.

Going back all the way along the way in, the two of them walked to the street again after a while.It's getting late now, and the sky is gradually darkening.Lychee clung tightly to Mother Zhao, for fear that she would be placed on the order if she was not careful.

Zhao's mother looked down at Lizhi and said to her: "It's getting late today, you come home with me to stay overnight, and come back to the house when we get up tomorrow."

Lizhi nodded immediately, she naturally had no objection.

Mother Zhao's home is in the alley behind Jia's mansion. Unlike the alley where the third lady lived just now, the alley behind Jia's mansion is spacious and grand, quite a bit of the glamor of a wealthy family.As Lizhi walked, he couldn't help sighing in his heart-is this a different kind of person who ascends to heaven by himself?

"Here we are," Zhao's mother stopped in front of a door, "I have a son and a daughter in my family. The baby is still a baby, and the daughter is about the same size as you. You two must be compatible."

With that said, Mother Zhao took out the key and opened the door, and came in with the litchi.

This is a completely different house from Jia's Mansion. Compared with the magnificent Rongguo Mansion, this house looks small and cramped, and the utensils are just ordinary utensils, but in Lizhi's eyes, this house looks like But it is much more human than the Jia Mansion.

This is what a family in the market looks like. It is different from the third lady's family just now, and it is also different from Jia's house. This is an ordinary family, at most, the identity of the hostess is different.

Lizhi became excited for no reason, so that she stood blankly at the door, dazed for a long time.

And the people in the room had already heard the commotion, and came out to greet her: "Mother, I'm coming back late today."

While talking, the girl turned her head and saw Lizhi hiding behind Mother Zhao, she was slightly stunned, and then laughed again: "I see, this is the goddaughter of mother in the mansion, isn't it? "

Li Zhi looked at the little girl in the green shirt, and felt a little embarrassed.She greeted the other party flusteredly, and forgot to explain that she was not Mother Zhao's goddaughter: "Hi sister, I'm Lizhi, today...I'm bothering you today."

"What are you talking about?" Zhao's mother shook her head, "you can just stay here with peace of mind."

The little girl in the blue shirt laughed when she heard the words: "Does my god-sister want to stay for one night? That's great, she happens to live with me, and the bedding has just been dried today, so it's very soft."

As she said that, Mother Zhao's daughter came forward and grabbed Lizhi, took her into the house, and said as she walked, "My surname is Zhao, and my name is Jiaoniang. You can just call me sister Jiaoniang."

Lizhi called out very obediently: "Sister Jiao Niang." She just made Jiao Niang happy like something - the younger brother in the family is still young, and he can only lie there and spit bubbles, and now a powder carved jade has come. My sister, don't entertain me well.
