Qingyou looked at the purse in her hand, then raised her head to look at Ao Ran, suddenly felt extremely wronged, tears flowed down like a bank, and her whole body choked up, "Thank you...thank you, Mr. Ao."

Seeing her crying like this, Ao Ran didn't know what to do for a while, so she said softly: "It's okay, don't cry, it's getting late, I'll take you back to rest."

Qingyou wiped her tears and nodded, thanking again and again.

Now it's autumn, and it's getting dark quickly, the two of them were walking on the bluestone road, although Qingyou was still weeping slightly, but her mood was much better, and she tried her best to put on a smile on her face.

Ao Ran asked, "Do they often bully you?"

Qingyou hesitated for a while, and finally nodded, "They always ask me for money."

Although he knew that a weak woman with no power, no power, and no kung fu was powerless to resist in front of two big men, but Ao Ran still couldn't help asking: "You can find someone who has a good time with you to help you, or you can help me with the manager." Let’s talk about it, otherwise I will always bear with them, and they will make an inch of it.”

Qingyou didn't answer for a while, and after a long time, she murmured: "I have no friends, and no one will help me."

Ao Ran was surprised, although she didn't get along with this little girl for long, she could be seen to be a kind, obedient and helpful girl, how could she have no friends.

Although covered by the dim night, Qingyou seemed to be able to see the doubt on Ao Ran's face, and murmured for a while, "I'm from a bad background, and everyone looks down on me."

It's not easy for Ao Ran to ask about other people's privacy, so he just listened and didn't answer, but Qing You, after a long silence, said, "Most of the Jing family's servants are born at home, but sometimes they are bought from outsiders, and they will do some hard work. The job, my mother bought it here, and after she came in, she became a girl in the laundry room, and the girl she bought has no rights or background, and my mother is still very cowardly."

"So there are always other maids throwing clothes to her to wash, and they wash them until late at night. Once she was washing clothes by the river, she was... insulted." .

Ao Ran was startled.

"My mother didn't dare to say anything, so she could only bear it in silence. She thought it would be fine if nothing happened, but later she found out that she was pregnant with me."

Qingyou choked up again, "This matter was also discovered by the steward of the laundry room, not to mention that maids and servants are forbidden to have contact with each other in the village, even if it is elsewhere, it is also true that something like this happened to an unmarried woman of my mother to be cast aside."

Ao Ran is really a person without a handkerchief, so he had to wipe her tears with his sleeve, Qingyou smiled at him, tears in his eyes, "They want to beat my mother to death with sticks, my mother was forced to say Who is the person who bullied her, at least for the sake of having children, let her live."

"But the man didn't admit it, and he said that my mother wanted to climb high and frame him. He has a wife and son, and his wife is notoriously cruel, and she can't even tolerate concubines. What's more, mother, he bullied my mother. It's just because he was drunk at the time, if things were revealed now, it would be difficult for his wife to explain, so he would pour all the dirty water on my mother and demand that my mother be strangled to death right away."

"Fortunately, it was Chinese New Year at that time, and blood was not allowed in the village. This matter was also escalated, and the disturbance went to the owner of the village. The owner was kind, and said that no matter what the truth was, it was the fault of the adults, and the child was innocent. My mother gave birth to the child and promised that this matter will be investigated seriously, if my mother is innocent, she will definitely not let her die in vain."

Ao Ran thought to himself, it is indeed Jing Wenhe's style, the original book mentions that although this person is hypocritical and likes to engage in romantic and illusory things, he is indeed an upright person.

"Later——" Qingyou sneered suddenly, her voice mostly filled with sorrow, "Then this matter was settled, no one drove us out of the village, no one punished my mother, and no one came to return my mother's innocence. .”

Ao Ran knew it well, and didn't drive them away, thinking that Jing Wenhe did find out that Qingyou's mother was not lying, but he couldn't let the master admit his mistake because of a maid, so he could only pretend that nothing happened, turn a blind eye, and let them Fend for itself.

"So, they bully you without any scruples?"

Qingyou nodded, "My identity is really embarrassing. Everyone knows it well, but they pretend to be nonchalant. Being friends with me will definitely offend those who want me to disappear, but no one cares if they bully me. There will be people supporting me, so the kind people in the village will ignore me, and the bad people will be like Liu Erqi."

Ao Ran also couldn't help sighing, these years, it's not easy to survive such encounters, and this girl hasn't complained yet, she always smiles at people and things, it's really admirable.

"What about your mother?"

Qingyou's footsteps suddenly stopped.

"My mother died when I was eight years old. She fell into the river where I washed clothes and drowned." As he spoke, he covered his mouth and cried uncontrollably, "Then... I tried that river. The position is just over the head, I tried... when I tried, I was only 13 years old, my... my mother is about the same height as me now."

I don't know if Qingyou cried too sadly, or if things like sadness will spread, Ao Ran also felt a lot heavier, and coaxed with a smile: "Look, we are all the same, and I don't have any relatives anymore, now, I will be your family member from now on, and my senior brother, you have fetched water and clothes for him, he is very powerful, he will also be your family member from now on, I will let him protect you too."

Qingyou was crying so hard, she nodded again and again after listening to Ao Ran's words.

Ao Ran said again: "Cry hard today, and smile openly in the future. You are the continuation of your mother's life. If you live well, she will also be well."

Qingyou nodded vigorously, and said again and again: "I... I know, I have always tried my best not to cry, but...someone suddenly protects me, I really want to cry, and I won't cry in the future."

Seeing her strength, Ao Ran smiled and wiped her tears, "I'll talk to Jing Fan tomorrow, you can come to my place from now on."

Qingyou looked up at him in astonishment, her tearful eyes were wide open, Ao Ran was a little confused: "Don't you want to?"

Qingyou hurriedly nodded, then shook her head again, "Yes, yes, as long as you don't... don't dislike me."

Ao Ran smiled: "How could that be?"

"Gollum..."

Qingyou's face instantly flushed red: "..."

Ao Ran rubbed her belly: "Let's go, I happen to be hungry too, let's eat with us today."

The little maid hesitated, "No...it's not good."

Ao Ran smiled: "Okay, let's go."

Qingyou hurriedly followed him, secretly smiled for a long time, and couldn't help but said: "Mr. Ao's smile is very gentle, it feels like the sky is getting warmer."

Ao Ran said with a smile: "The sun has gone down, you can still see it."

Qingyou hurriedly nodded, very firm: "Yes, although I can't see it clearly, I remember it, so I can imagine it."

Ao Ran: "You have only met me a few times, can you remember it?"

Although Qingyou didn't say anything, she said in her heart that she remembered it when she first saw her. She had never seen such a heart-warming smile, and it felt like it would make people forget all their troubles.

Ao Ran: "Your young master's smile is also warm, and he looks much better than me." Although it has changed now, it should be very warm in the past.

Qingyou replied: "The young master's smile is beautiful and warm, but his smile makes people feel far away, even if he smiles at you, you will feel that he is smiling for others."

Ao Ran frightened her: "Be careful, I will sue your young master."

Qingyou was very happy: "Young Master, I don't know how to do it."

Ao Ran thought for a while and asked, "Do you want to recognize your father?" He didn't know if he could take care of this girl all the time, and he didn't even know how long he would live. Every child expects from their parents. Yes, after all, blood is thicker than water, and family love is the most inseparable. If Qingyou wanted to have this father in her heart, and wanted to be the lady of the Jing family, and she brought her by her side, would it be against her will?

Qingyou looked up at him, her gaze was firm, without the slightest hesitation: "No, I don't want to hate or complain, but I can't treat him as my father, so I would rather not have a father than recognize him. "

Ao Ran nodded: "If you have any thoughts, you can tell me frankly, don't have any scruples."

Qingyou nodded, "I will always be honest with you, and I will never hide anything from you."

Seeing her swearing appearance, Ao Ran couldn't help laughing: "It's okay to have some little secrets of your own, you don't have to tell me all of them."

Qingyou blushed and nodded.

"Last time you asked for clothes for my senior brother, didn't you also encounter a lot of obstacles?" She was not welcome, and she was not Ao Ran's girl, but she suddenly ran to get the clothes, how could those people give them to her?

Qingyou lowered her head: "I got the servant's clothes. I have wronged Mr. Ao's senior brother, but I am in the name of Mr. Ao, so they will still give it to me."

Ao Ran: "What else?"

Qingyou paused again: "I also secretly saved some money, and I gave some money to the steward."

Ao Ran sighed, "If you are successful, you will help the world, and if you are poor, you will be alone. If you have the ability to help others, you can help others more. But if you are in trouble, take care of yourself first. Others will always come in second." Behind you, understand?"

"Well, I understand." After finishing speaking, he said again, "Except Mr. Ao."

Ao Ran: "..." In vain.

When the two returned to the room, the food was already on the table. Yan Fengge sat in front of the table without moving, and sighed Ao Ran: "Brother, if I don't come back, you can eat first, don't wait for me."

Yan Fengge didn't say anything, just nodded, Ao Ran knew with the strands of her hair that this person definitely didn't listen.

Ao Ran sat on the chair, but saw Qingyou standing at the door in a daze, and said, "Stop standing there, sit down and eat together."

Yan Fengge turned to look at the person at the door, but didn't say anything, seeing Ao Ran took the chopsticks, he also started to eat silently.

Although Qingyou had already met Yan Fengge, she still couldn't resist the coldness exuding from this person, so she said timidly, "Mr. Yan." She carefully sat next to Aoran.

Yan Fengge also nodded slightly, as a response, that is, he didn't ask who Qingyou was, and he didn't ask how he had dinner with them, as if it was none of his business.

Ao Ran briefly introduced the two of them.
