Take your own vegetable shop and travel to the desert road

"I'm afraid it will taste bitter in your mouth just now, so I'm thinking of putting some sugar and salt in it to make it taste better in your mouth."

Chen Yu explained why she did what she did and handed the peeled potato to Zheng Xiang.

"Dad, you must be hungry. You can eat potatoes just now."

Zheng Xiang put down the water bag and took the potato, his eyes swept from Chen Yu to Xiaomi, thinking about how to tell them the fact that their mother was gone.

Xiaomi didn't understand Zheng Xiang's eyes and thought he thought the potatoes were not enough. Looking at the half-eaten potatoes in his hand, he started to get confused.

What should I do? Daddy doesn’t seem to have enough to eat. So Xiaomi should feed potatoes to daddy. Daddy needs to eat well to recover from illness.

Although he was very reluctant to leave, Xiaomi still handed the half-eaten potato to his father.

"Dad, I'll give you mine. Daddy will be full soon."

Zheng Xiang was first surprised by Xiaomi's ability to speak so fluently, and then because of Xiaomi's filial piety, he smiled and stroked Xiaomi's head.

"Daddy can eat enough. Xiaomi can eat it by himself. Dad thinks you have something to tell you and your sister. Be good and eat first."

Is that so? Xiaomi did not doubt her father's words and was very happy to be able to eat the remaining half of the potato.

Chen Yu, on the other hand, looked at the potato in her hand and felt that she suddenly lost her appetite. In fact, she didn't need her father to tell her what would happen to her stepmother after she was kidnapped.

Wei Zehan noticed Chen Yu's change and patted her hand as if to comfort her.

"Sister, you still have Xiaomi, we are here too."

Such comforting words were actually of little use, but Chen Yu was still very happy that he could say that.

"I know, I'm fine, it's just Xiaomi. I don't know if Xiaomi can bear it."

Chen Yu looked at Xiaomi, who was eating potatoes with a happy face, and wondered if she should dissuade her father. Maybe when Xiaomi is older, he will naturally not remember the existence of his stepmother, and there is no need to tell him the truth at this time.

Just when Chen Yu was struggling with his stomach, Xiaomi beside him had already finished eating the potatoes.

"Dad, where is mom? Dad didn't go to find mom, so why is he the only one who comes back? Is mom not willing to come back with dad?"

Xiaomi lay next to Zheng Xiang, wanting to know why her mother didn't come back. She said she would come back to find him, but where was she?

"Xiaomi, you also saw what happened that day. Your mother died."

Zheng Xiang kept staring at Xiaomi while he was talking, fearing that Xiaomi would be too excited.

Xiaomi looked at Zheng Xiang without saying a word, and they looked at each other. No one looked away, they just looked at each other so persistently.

Suddenly Xiaomi shouted loudly

"You lied, father lied, father lied, mother will not be absent, mother said, she will always be with me, will not be absent."

Xiaomi's loss of control was expected by everyone. The sleepy Guo Nian was awakened by Xiaomi's words. He was still holding a half-eaten potato in his hand. Looking at Xiaomi who was roaring with grievances, he subconsciously asked Chen Yu where he was. people

"What's wrong with Xiaomi? Which of you messed with him? This is the first time I've heard him speak so loudly."

Neither Chen Yu nor Wei Zehan spoke. Guo Nian, who didn't get an answer, looked at Zheng Xiang. Could it be that he said it? Could Uncle Xiang just tell Xiaomi that his mother was gone? No way!

"Uncle Xiang, what's wrong with your rice? Are you not full? If you're not full, I still have half a potato here. I'll give you some millet."

Xiaomi ignored Guo Nian's words and just stared at Zheng Xiang, ignoring the sounds around him.

"I didn't lie. If I lied to you, it would be a lie if your mother is still alive. Xiaomi, if your mother dies, she will die in the hands of some bandits."

Zheng Xiang ignored the pleading looks of Chen Yu and Wei Zehan. In his opinion, this matter had to be discussed, and it would be best for him to let him know as soon as possible.

These words made Xiaomi's tears flow down uncontrollably. While he was crying, he looked at Chen Yu

"Sister, my mother is still alive, right? My mother is still alive, right? She won't abandon me. No, I don't believe my mother will abandon me."

Chen Yu looked at Xiaomi who was crying inconsolably, and wanted to say a few words of comfort, but there were not a few comforting words in his mind.

With great difficulty, I managed to squeeze out a few comforting words.

"It's okay, don't worry, it's okay. Mom is gone and you still have me. I will take good care of you."

"Sister Xiaomi is right. My sister and I will take care of you together, as well as Uncle Xiang."

Wei Zehan echoed what Chen Yu said. Xiaomi cried even more when he heard this. He likes his sister, Ze, and his father. Well, he can barely win over Guo Nian.

"Xiaomi knows that her sister is good, Ze is good, her father is good, and Uncle Nian is also good to Xiaomi, but Xiaomi misses her mother."

When Xiaomi said this, he kept wiping his tears with his sleeves. He just missed his mother.

"I can miss your mother."

When Zheng Xiang said this, he put his hand into his clothes. Fortunately, he still had his jade pendant. There was iron ore in the village, which was a big deal. Who dared to mine iron ore secretly? It was just a few people around him. .

"Xiaomi, dad is right. You can miss your mother without crying. If you cry, people should think it's your sister who is bullying Xiaomi."

Chen Yu patted Xiaomi, hoping that Xiaomi could calm down.

Maybe Chen Yu's words would make others think that she was bullying him, so Xiaomi slowly stopped crying.

"Xiaomi is obedient. Dad, sister, and Ze can't do without Xiaomi."

It seemed that Xiaomi was crying so embarrassingly, not only because he was sad that his mother was dead, but he also thought that he would be abandoned.

"If you don't call me dad, how could I not want you? When we get home, I will make a tomb for your mother so that you can worship her in the future."

These words were beyond Chen Yu's expectation. She didn't expect her father to think so far.

"Thank you dad, Xiaomi, thank you dad quickly."

Chen Yu pushed Xiaomi gently, and Xiaomi nestled in Chen Yu's arms and followed the parrot.

"Thank you dad."

"Dad, three fish came to my door on the first day you left. This is what they left behind. Look at this seal. Is it a fake seal or an imitation of the original seal?

Most people can't do this. "

Wei Zehan took out the seal from his arms and placed it in his palm.

Zheng Xiang picked up the seal and started checking it. It was indeed a fake seal, but the seal-cutting technique probably came from the same place as the original.

Seals, iron ore, and weapon refining are all within the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Industry. No wonder the Lord's people have not been able to enter the Ministry of Industry in the past ten years.

It seems that the Ministry of Industry has been controlled for a long time. I am afraid it was like this ten years ago. Otherwise, Mr. Xing, the former Minister of the Ministry of Industry, would not have been unjustly imprisoned and died suddenly in prison. Now it seems that that person was not only It's as simple as silence.

Killing the chicken to scare the monkey, using this method to beat other people in the Ministry of Industry, is a good method, it is indeed a good method.

"Uncle Xiang, what are you thinking of? This is a private seal imitated by the official seal of the city gate captain. Those people are so brave."
