Rebirth: Lie down with the system

The child was stunned for a while, remembering being held tightly by his mother in the early morning, and remembering that the house collapsed and they were buried.

He turned around and stumbled towards the ruins, but all he saw was the stiffened body of a woman lying in front of the ruins. Her hands were still in an encircling position. The child fell on the woman and hugged her tightly. The body burst out with tears and howls in an instant.

He already knew what death was when his father had an accident. He no longer had a father, and now his mother has left him forever...

The child cried heartbreakingly, and Shi Qing felt sad in his heart. Such a young child should have grown up safely under the protection of his parents, but now he is separated forever.

He stepped forward and squatted next to the child, gently patting his thin back.

Perhaps it was the warmth of Shi Qing's hands that warmed the child, and the crying child threw herself into his arms.

Shi Qing had to comfort him before he stopped crying.

On the other hand, Murong Li on the side was a little unhappy.

Ever since he understood his feelings for Shi Qing, he had intentionally or unintentionally cut off other people's physical contact with Shi Qing.

Now, without warning, this child broke through the defense line and threw himself into Shi Qing's arms. Murong Li looked at the child and felt a little unhappy.

But Shi Qing is right in front of him, and he can't do anything to this child!

He frowned and stepped forward, holding the child's collar with a big hand and pulling him out of Shi Qing's arms.

He put his hands on the child's thin shoulders and squeezed them hard, as if to give him strength.

The voice was serious and low.

"You are a boy and a man. You cannot shed tears easily. You must be strong, you know!"

One dared to say it and the other dared to believe it. The child was actually frightened by Murong Li to stop crying.

Wiping tears with her little hands, she spoke firmly with a crying tone.

"Yes! That's what mom said! I won't cry T﹏T I want to be strong!"

Shi Qing and Murong Li twitched their mouths at the same time, but they had different thoughts.

Murong Li: I am not your mother!

Shi Qing: Did Murong Li forget how clingy he was when he was a child? Educate children seriously!

The two were speechless, but it would be nice if the child stopped crying.

Asked about the child's name, Li Shaoshan, he was five years old. His father was a herb collector. When he was four years old, he fell off a cliff and died.

After his father died, his mother took him alone, relying on his mother's embroidery work to survive.

And because they live in a remote area, they are outsiders and do not have much contact with the villagers.

Shi Qing was still a little angry. Even though he didn't have much contact with the village, he was still registered with the village chief. How could he close the team without confirming it? It was so irresponsible!

The two took the child and buried his mother's body next to his father's grave. The child kowtowed three times in a dignified manner before being taken away by Shi Qing and the others.

Back at the city gate, there were already many less victims, and the remaining ones were still being arranged by the government officials to go to the temple in an orderly manner.

They could not find anyone from the same village as this child for a while.

Li Shaoshan held Shi Qing's hand obediently and followed the two of them quietly. Shi Qing asked Murong Li with his eyes.

"What should we do with this child? Should we take him back?"

Murong Li definitely didn't want to take the child back to disturb his and Shi Qing's relationship, but if the child wasn't settled properly, Shi Qing would definitely not feel relieved either.

"Let's go to the prefectural government office first. The victims haven't been evacuated yet. Qin Mingmo and the others must not have gone back yet. Let's go find the child's household registration information and see if he has any relatives!"

Shi Qing nodded, and the two took Li Shaoshan to the government office.

Due to the complicated arrangements, there were many things that needed to be registered. At this time, the government office was still brightly lit, and the chief historian, Sima and other people who could write were all registering the information of these victims in the government office.

The scene was very busy.

Murong Li led people to find Qin Mingmo who was resting aside.

At this time, Qin Mingmo looked very tired, but his expression was a bit more relaxed. At least Fenghe Prefecture was able to provide timely relief from the snowstorm, and the number of deaths was much less than he expected.

When he looked up and saw the fourth prince and the romantic young master, he quickly stood up, brushed off his somewhat wrinkled official uniform, clasped his fists and bowed to Murong Li in a salute.

Regardless of the relationship between the royal family and the six major families, at least the fourth prince Murong Li sincerely thinks about the people of Fenghe Prefecture. Hearing that he personally participated in the search and rescue work today, he is willing to treat him with courtesy, and this fourth prince The prince had a close relationship with Zhou Jikang, and for Zhou Jikang's sake he could no longer neglect him.

"I've met the fourth prince, I've met Mr. Shi! We've had a hard day today, let's sit down and talk!"

Murong Li did not refuse. Today, in order to search and rescue the buried victims, he and Shi Qing frequently used their spiritual senses. Their mental exertion was greater than their physical exertion, and they were also more tiring.

The two of them took Li Shaoshan and sat across from him.

Explain Li Shaoshan's situation clearly to Qin Mingmo.

Although Qin Mingmo is sometimes careless and a little greedy for pleasure, he still attaches great importance to Fenghe Prefecture, the Qin family's headquarters, and manages it very well.

In this disaster, he had already issued an order to ensure the safety of everyone in every village. He must be seen alive and his body must be seen dead!

Now, there are actually people who have violated the law, neglected their duties, and been caught by the royal family!

At this time, he wanted to kill those irresponsible things, but it would not help.

Qin Mingmo had so many thoughts in his mind at the moment. He had already thought of the emperor blaming the Qin family for this matter in the future, but he didn't know how to answer Murong Li's accusation.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Murong Li frowned.

"What? This matter is difficult to handle? I just want to know what relatives this child has, and how to arrange this child in the future?"

Qin Mingmo was awakened by his words and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It seemed that the fourth prince did not want to make a fuss about this matter.

Qin Mingmo pondered for a moment and signaled to the others to be calm. He called a person who registered in the front hall and asked about the village where Li Shaoshan lived.

"Go and find out the household registration information of Tian Bing Village, and also notify the government officials who went to Tian Bing Village for search and rescue today to come see me!"

Seeing that his face was not good-looking, the visitors did not dare to ask any more questions, so they bowed and went down to do their work.

The room suddenly became quiet.

Qin Mingmo said, "Wait a moment, the official will give an explanation to the child in a while!" After saying that, he summoned another maid and asked her to serve snacks and hot tea.

Seeing Li Shaoshan's eyes brightening and swallowing his saliva, Shi Qing took the plate, handed him the snacks, and motioned for him to eat.

After seeing Shi Qing's agreement, Li Shaoshan sat down with a plate and started eating in small bites.

Although he was very hungry, his actions were not rude. It could be seen that his mother had taught him well. I really felt sorry for that woman.

Before Li Shaoshan could finish his snack, the man just came in with a book of information.

Qin Mingmo took it and checked it.

Household registration information shows that Li Shaoshan's father, Li Kuida, moved here in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China just after the war. He later settled in Tian Bing Village and made a living by collecting herbs and hunting. Later, he married Tao Lian'er, the daughter of a down-and-out scholar. A few years after getting married, the old scholar died of illness, and the two gave birth to a son, Li Shaoshan.

The child's father fell to death the year before last, and his mother was left to live with the child in Tian Bing Village. Unexpectedly, during the snowstorm, his mother also died, leaving the child alone. If the fourth prince and Mr. Shi hadn't saved him, This kid, I'm afraid the whole family will have to reunite underground!

Qin Mingmo sympathized with the child, and was even more angry with those who searched and rescued him.
