This is your world

Li Beifeng stood outside the yard, looking quietly at the small farmhouse in front of him. read

М

This is an extremely simple thatched house courtyard, even more shabby than the house Li Beifeng lived in Lijiacun.

Li Beifeng still had a two-bedroom apartment at that time. Although it was a bit old, the house was still complete and clean.

But the small farmhouse in front of me looked dilapidated and desolate.

A small thatched cottage with a dilapidated door and an equally small and pitiful yard. In the backyard of the farmhouse, you can still vaguely see an open space.

There seemed to be some crops planted in the open space.

At this time, there was a peasant woman sitting at the door of the small courtyard, washing clothes.

The weather was cool and cool, and the peasant woman was wearing a thick cotton coat, and her hands were soaked in the cold water until they turned red.

However, she ignored it and washed her clothes very seriously.

The peasant woman was probably in her forties. Perhaps years of hard work had made her look haggard and her skin even older. But vaguely, it seems that a bit of youthful beauty can still be seen between her eyebrows.

This peasant woman is the person the shopkeeper mentioned as possibly being the maid of the Northern Qi royal family.

Originally, Li Beifeng just wanted to inquire, but what surprised him was the other party's attitude. The old peasant woman's attitude was obviously a little cold, and she was very indifferent to Li Beifeng's questions. From beginning to end, he didn't even raise his head to look at Li Beifeng.

"Auntie, don't worry, I don't mean any harm. I just heard others talk about it, so I'm just a little curious..."

Li Beifeng tried his best to keep his tone very kind, and showed an extremely kind smile on his face, trying to prove that he had no other purpose.

However...his plan failed.

The old peasant woman in the yard still didn't look at him.

His tone was still relatively cold, "I told you, you have found the wrong person. I really don't have any Northern Qi palace maids here. Others are just spreading rumors. I am just an ordinary peasant woman..."

Li Beifeng frowned slightly.

He always felt that the tone of the peasant woman in front of him was a bit deliberately cold... The more this happened, the more abnormal he felt.

To be honest, if someone comes to ask, this shouldn't be the attitude, right? Unless... there's something wrong in your heart?

Li Beifeng squinted his eyes slightly and stared at the old peasant woman.

Watching her hands and feet diligently finish washing the clothes, he waited until she stood up and raised her head.

At this time, Li Beifeng seemed to have discovered something.

This old peasant woman had empty eyes and no energy.

she……

Can't the eyes see?

Immediately afterwards, Li Beifeng saw the old peasant woman holding up the washing tub in front of her, groping step by step, and arrived at the entrance of the courtyard. After leaving the courtyard, I slowly and slowly groped my way to the river not far behind the courtyard.

She walked very slowly every step, and she needed to fumble for a moment to make sure there were no obstacles in front of her. When she reached the river, she relaxed slightly.

Seeing this scene, Li Beifeng frowned even deeper.

She is indeed blind!

This surprised Li Beifeng.

However, after hesitating for a moment, he still followed to the river.

As if she heard the footsteps behind her, the old peasant woman who was washing clothes by the river paused for a moment and then continued washing clothes.

Li Beifeng appeared not far from the river, looked at the old peasant woman, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke.

"Auntie, I don't know what difficulties you may have, maybe you want to hide your identity. But I assure you, I do not have any ill intentions... You also know that Northern Qi has been destroyed for almost twenty years, and all the grievances and grudges of that year have long since been wiped out. Return to dust, and dust to dust.”

"I came to see you today. I just want to inquire about some secrets about the past. I wonder if you can tell me? I will definitely be grateful..."

The peasant woman's hand movements paused again, this time, she paused for a moment.

After a while, she still spoke in a calm voice, a little cold: "Young Master, you really have the wrong person. I don't know what you are talking about..."

have to!

All your efforts are in vain!

She doesn't acknowledge her identity at all.

Seeing this, Li Beifeng had no choice.

He didn't want to admit it. No matter how much he asked, it would be useless. It seemed that he could only take a look and find someone else.

Li Beifeng didn't bother anymore, got up and left.

The old peasant woman was still squatting by the river, rinsing the clothes in her hands.

I don't know how long it took, but she suddenly stopped what she was doing. Looking ahead, the empty eyes were silent for a long time, and at some point, they seemed to have a sad look.

…

After leaving the river, Li Beifeng did not leave for the time being, but walked around the small village a few times.

The small village is not big, and it is only two or three miles away from the county seat. At a rough estimate, there are only forty or fifty households.

Compared to the prosperous Chaoyang County dozens of miles away, such a small village is indeed very inconspicuous.

The village was deserted, with few people seen. After walking around twice, Li Beifeng finally saw a figure in a piece of land outside the village.

An old man about forty or fifty years old, with dark skin, short but strong stature, he looked like a man who had been doing farm work all year round.

"Old man!"

Li Beifeng stood by the land and shouted.

The old man who was still doing farm work turned around and glanced at Li Beifeng on the roadside, with a look of surprise in his eyes.

Unfamiliar face?

He is fair and clean, and at first glance he is a scholar from the city. If these scholars don't stay in the city, why would they come to a remote country like them?

"What's the matter?" the old man asked.

"That's right, old man, I'm from the county. Are you from this village? I have something I want to ask you about..."

Li Beifeng said.

Unexpectedly, this old man just glanced sideways at Li Beifeng, his tone seemed a little impatient, and he waved his hand: "No time...don't you see I'm busy?"

After that, the old man turned around and continued his work.

He has no time to deal with such a scholar.

He probably didn't know what was wrong and came here to experience life. He seemed very retarded by asking questions... so he had no time to answer.

Li Beifeng was stunned for a moment, but he was a little surprised by the old man's attitude.

But after a moment, he reacted again. Then he reached into his arms and felt around, and took out something.

"Old man!"

"What are you doing...all you say is that I have no time to take care of you..."

The old man turned around impatiently and was about to scold the fair scholar. When he turned around and saw what Li Beifeng was holding, the words that were on his lips suddenly swallowed back.

He saw Li Beifeng stretch out a hand with something in it.

what is that?

That's...a piece of white silver!

When he saw the silver, the old man was stunned. The next second, his eyes suddenly lit up.

There was greed and desire that could not be concealed in his eyes. (audience)

The impact of this ingot of silver was really great. The old man had never had so much silver in his life.

At a rough glance, there are at least thirty or forty taels.

At this time, Li Beifeng looked at the old man with a smile: "Old man, answer me a few questions. This money is yours...how about it?"

The old man couldn't help but swallowed his saliva, his tone was trembling, and he said excitedly: "Really?"

"Of course, I never lie!"

Li Beifeng threw the silver in the air and landed it in his hand.

The old man's eyes followed Li Beifeng's hand to the air and back again.

The next second, he quickly arrived in front of Li Beifeng. With a face full of enthusiasm, he said attentively: "Young Master, what do you want to ask... Just ask, to be honest, I have lived in this village for decades, and no one knows this place better than me... "

"..."

As the saying goes, money can make the world go round.

The old man in front of him fully proved the authenticity of this sentence.

After seeing Yinzi, the old man's attitude suddenly changed 120 degrees. He groveled in front of Li Beifeng and talked about everything.

Li Beifeng nodded with satisfaction, glanced at the old man, pointed in a certain direction of the village behind him, and asked: "Let me ask you, do you know that the family at the end of your village is the blind old man? Do you know her well?"

The old man looked in the direction of Li Beifeng's finger and was stunned for a moment. Then he suddenly realized: "You are talking about the blind old woman? Of course I know about her..."

As soon as he mentioned this person, the old man suddenly became interested: "Let me tell you, that old woman has a very weird personality and can't get along with others... She has a very stubborn temper. She is really a weirdo..."

"How to say?"

Li Beifeng asked: "Do you know her origin?"

"Of course I know, she was not originally from our village..."

The old man thought about it and said: "Probably more than ten years ago, this old woman came to live with us from other places... No one knows her origins, and of course, no one cares. I have an impression of her. , just because this old woman has a very stubborn temper and acts very strangely..."

At this point, the old man lowered his voice and whispered: "I remember one time several years ago, I secretly went to her house and took a peek. Guess what, I was shocked...her house , there is actually a spiritual place..."

"It's not just me, other people have also seen it. I heard that the memorial tablet is that of the emperor and queen of the subjugated Northern Qi Dynasty... This news alarmed the people in the Yamen at that time, and the Yamen's police officers came. But the strange thing is that no evidence was found from her home...I suspect that she secretly hid it..."

"Later, some people began to spread the news, saying that this old woman was originally a maid of the Northern Qi royal family, a maid beside the empress. She fled here after the fall of the Northern Qi Dynasty..."

Hearing this, Li Beifeng raised his eyebrows: "Is this the reason?"

"Of course not. I once secretly watched her. That old woman's temperament is indeed different from ours... Young Master, you may not believe it. No one cares about rough people like us. However, Young Master, you have an outstanding temperament. People can tell at a glance that they are different from others, and that old woman is like this... Although she looks no different from us, I can still tell at a glance that she is indeed no ordinary person..."

The old man was so excited that he was foaming at the mouth.

Li Beifeng thought for a moment and then asked: "You just said... that she has a weird personality?"

"That's right, she has a bad temper. She has been in our village for more than ten years, but she still doesn't have a good relationship with the village. She doesn't interact with others at all on weekdays..."

At this point, the old man seemed to have thought of something, shook his head and sighed: "However, she is also a pitiful person...she has become blind in her old age, and she still has to raise a girl..."

"Baby girl?"

Li Beifeng keenly caught the words in the old man's tone: "Does she have a daughter?"

"That's right!"

The old man nodded and shook his head: "The girl is not her biological child, but the one she picked up. The girl is very cute, obedient and well-behaved. I just pity their mother and daughter. The baby has been very sensible since she was a child. , tsk tsk..."

It seemed that something had occurred to him, and the old man was also filled with regret.

Li Beifeng did not continue to ask. He knew what was going on without even thinking about it.

A blind peasant woman and a little girl, mother and daughter depend on each other... It is not easy to survive in such a backward village.

At this moment, an idea suddenly flashed in Li Beifeng's mind: "By the way, where is her daughter?"

The old man pointed in one direction, which was the village next door.

"There is a teacher in the village next door who has opened a private school to teach children like us from poor families who cannot afford to go to school for free. The girl is studying there..."

"That old gentleman is really the reincarnation of a saint, and he is highly respected..."

The old man was full of praise for the teacher. He obviously admired the teacher very much.

But at this time, the old man seemed to have thought of something again, and looked at Li Beifeng strangely: "Sir... why do you ask this?"

"It's nothing, I'm just curious."

Li Beifeng brushed it off gently.

"Then... Young Master..."

The old man looked greedily and carefully at Li Beifeng's hand, his eyes unable to conceal his desire for silver.

Li Beifeng then threw the money in his hand to him: "It's yours!"

The old man took the money and was so excited that he couldn't help himself. He thanked him repeatedly, bowed and bent down, and carefully collected the money like a treasure. He looked as if he was afraid that Li Beifeng would regret it and take it back.

Li Beifeng didn't pay much attention to the old man. Instead, he turned to look at the neighboring village not far away. After thinking for a moment, he turned and walked towards the neighboring village.

…

In a dilapidated school.

Dark environment, simple tables and chairs.

In the school, a dozen children were sitting neatly, reciting catchy texts in unison.

In front of the students stood an old man with white hair, who was obviously the teacher of this school.

Listening to the students' recitation, the teacher's face showed a satisfied smile.

Among the dozen or so students, there were both boys and girls. The younger ones were only four or five years old, while the older ones were already twelve or thirteen years old.

Li Beifeng stood not far away, watching this scene for a long time.

I don't know why, but my mood is a little complicated.

In this era, the gap between those who study and those who do not study is indeed quite big. Reading can help you get ahead, this is something that everyone firmly believes.

If he can pass the high school, he will be proud of his ancestors and completely turn over. Even if you don't pass the exam, but you pass the exam and become a scholar, you will definitely be the best among people.

The gap between scholars and ordinary people is also extremely large.

Therefore, whenever I have the opportunity, I naturally want to send my children to school.

However, what Li Beifeng didn't expect was that...in this era, the idea of ​​favoring boys over girls still existed. Even though the images of the eldest princess and Li Suyi influence the opinions of people all over the world, it is difficult to change the deep-rooted thoughts.

When ordinary people give birth to a girl, they want to raise her as soon as possible and then find a good natal family to marry and get rid of being a drag. As for allowing the girl's family to study, read and go to school, that is a treatment that only wealthy families can have. ˜”*°•.˜˜.•°*”˜

As for poor people, it is difficult for them to even have a bite of food, let alone read and write.

But at this moment, there were still four or five girls in the school in front of Li Beifeng.

The four or five girls were sitting upright in the school, with serious and focused expressions on their faces.

Li Beifeng's eyes swept over these four or five girls.

One of the girls caught his attention.

The girl was about ten years old. She was thin, perhaps due to malnutrition, and her skin was slightly yellow.

But the girl's eyes are very bright, and her appearance is even more exquisite, with some vague signs of beauty.

If she is nurtured well, in a few years she will probably become a rare beauty.

The girl had a bun, and although her clothes were shabby, they were clean.

At this moment, the teacher was looking at the teacher in front of him very seriously.

Teaching in the school still continues.

In such a dilapidated school, the students' enthusiasm for learning has not diminished at all.

Li Beifeng stood not far away, staring at all this quietly without disturbing.

I don’t know how long it took, but suddenly there was a burst of cheers in the school.

Immediately afterwards, the children in the school ran out of the school one by one and played around.

At this time, the old gentleman also walked out of the school. Soon, he noticed Li Beifeng not far away. He stopped and looked at Li Beifeng with a slight frown.

"Who are you?"

The old gentleman's tone was a little cautious.

He had never seen the young man in front of him before.

Although the clothes on this young man's body seemed not expensive, his aura was not something that a country man could possess.

One glance tells you that you are either rich or noble.

Li Beifeng looked the old gentleman over and said with a chuckle: "Hello, old gentleman, I'm here to find someone. Excuse me...is Xiaosi here?"

Xiaosi is the nickname of the blind old peasant woman.

The old gentleman looked at Li Beifeng with a slightly wary look, although he could not tell the origin of this young man.

But he felt no hostility from his opponent. The old man thought for a moment, turned around and shouted: "Xiao Si!"

At the same time, a little girl came out of the school and walked next to the old gentleman: "Sir, are you looking for me?"

The voice is soft and soft, and the voice is very light.

She also saw Li Beifeng not far away. He seemed a little afraid of strangers, his eyes were evasive and timid, and he hid behind the old gentleman, not daring to look at Li Beifeng.

This girl was exactly the girl Li Beifeng had noticed just now.

The old gentleman patted Xiaosi's head dotingly and said, "This young master is looking for you... Do you know him?"

Xiao Si blinked his eyes and quietly revealed his head from behind the old gentleman. He glanced at Li Beifeng timidly and then shook his head: "No, I don't know him..."

The old gentleman immediately squinted his eyes and looked at Li Beifeng: "This young master, Xiaosi said she doesn't know you. You are..."

Li Beifeng naturally knew that this old gentleman had begun to be wary of him.

However, these are also to be expected.

He looked at the little girl hiding behind the old gentleman, then looked at the old gentleman again, and said: "Old gentleman, can you... lend me a step to speak?"

The old gentleman stared at Li Beifeng for a long time, and finally nodded.

…

A small house not far from the school.

The cabin is small and can only accommodate one person.

This is where the old gentleman lives.

Seeing this scene, Li Beifeng was somewhat surprised.

He originally thought that this old gentleman should have a good family background. Otherwise, how could he afford to teach children for free.

However, when he saw the environment where the old gentleman lived, Li Beifeng denied this idea.

An old gentleman who lives in such a poor living environment does not look like he comes from a good family.

"How do you call this young master?"

The old gentleman poured Li Beifeng a cup of tea.

Tea is the most common and cheap broken tea. One sip will fill your mouth with tea leaves.

Li Beifeng put down his tea cup and said, "My name is Li Beifeng. I've met the old gentleman!"

The old gentleman looked at Li Beifeng and said, "I wonder if Mr. Li is here today for something important?"

"I heard about the old gentleman's deeds and came to visit him..."

Li Beifeng paused for a moment, then said in a serious tone: "The old gentleman teaches children for free. This move is really noble and selfless, really touching, and I really admire him..."

"Don't dare take it!"

The old gentleman shook his head: "I'm just trying my best!"

Li Beifeng shook his head and said: "Before I came, I originally thought that the old gentleman should have a good family background, so he would do good deeds and teach the children for free. But I didn't expect that the old gentleman would be willing to do such a good thing even though his life was so tight. I admire you, but I am really ashamed..."

"The old gentleman's ideological realm is difficult for me to reach no matter what..."

If nothing else, just asking this old gentleman to teach children for free is worthy of Li Beifeng's admiration.

There are really not many people in this world who are willing to be so selfless.

"Young Master Li is so ridiculous that I don't dare to take it seriously..."

The old gentleman shook his head repeatedly.

"I'm a little curious. With the old gentleman's ability, if he went to a county or other place to be a teacher, not to mention being rich, he would at least have enough food and clothing... Why would the old gentleman be willing to stay here and give free services to these children? Teaching?”

The old man sighed, and then spoke after a while: "If I don't teach these children, they won't have books to read... If they don't read, they will always have to live in this small mountain village. There's not much I can do. We can only try our best to change their destiny..."

The old man didn't say much about the specific reason, and Li Beifeng didn't continue to ask.

Everyone has their own choice. As for the reason, it is not convenient to tell outsiders...

Li Beifeng glanced at the school not far outside the window, and suddenly said: "Old sir, I looked at the school...it seems to be a few years old. I'm afraid there may be some hidden dangers for students studying here, right?"

In Li Beifeng's eyes, this school was already a dilapidated building.

Not to mention the leakage of wind and rain everywhere, the precarious beams and pillars are basically rotten, and I am afraid they may collapse one day...

Mentioning this matter, the old gentleman's eyes also showed a bit of worry, but his tone was very helpless: "There is no way...it is not easy to teach children, and there is no money left to repair the school. Over the years, thanks to the relief provided by some kind-hearted people, the school has been able to survive. But now, the school has become worse and worse, and there are fewer and fewer students. I’m afraid, I don’t know how long it can last... …”

It can be seen that the old gentleman still has great feelings for this school.

Also, I am willing to teach here for free without fear of poverty. I'm afraid you won't be able to persevere without firm love.

The old gentleman came back to his senses, with an apologetic look on his face: "I wonder what Mr. Li wants to say to me?"

Li Beifeng thought for a moment and suddenly said: "Old sir, I can help you resume school..."

Hearing these words, the old gentleman was stunned.

Then, he looked at Li Beifeng in disbelief, "You, what did you say?"

"Old sir, I can sponsor you with funds to help you rebuild this school!"

Li Beifeng looked at him and said seriously: "Not only will the school be repaired, I will also provide you with other teaching facilities so that every child here can study with peace of mind and afford food..."

Now that he's here, now that he's seen this, Li Beifeng naturally can't just sit idly by.

Even the old man with gray hair in front of him could still teach these children so selflessly. Of course, Li Beifeng couldn't remain indifferent, he had to do something.

For him, repairing a school is just a piece of cake. He couldn't help everyone in the world, but now that he saw it, he couldn't sit back and ignore it.

At this moment, the old gentleman became extremely excited after hearing Li Beifeng's words.

He opened his eyes wide and stared at Li Beifeng with an excited tone and a trembling voice: "Li, Mr. Li...are you telling the truth? But is it true?!"

"Of course, I'm not kidding!"

Li Beifeng said and took out another package from his arms.

Inside the package was some silver.

"Old sir, this is all the money I have today. You can take it for now to improve the lives of the children. When I get back, I will call someone to repair the school..."

He went out in a hurry today and didn't bring much money with him.

I just gave the old man another ingot of silver, and now I probably still have less than twenty or thirty taels of silver left in my body.

These twenty or thirty taels of silver are indeed not very much in the county.

But for such a mountain village and such an old gentleman, this is undoubtedly... a huge amount of money that he has never seen in his life.

Seeing the silver in front of him, the old gentleman was completely stunned.

This shock was no less than that of the old man before.

Such a lot of money... let alone repairing the school, there is no need for that much money.

This also made the old gentleman realize that the young man in front of him was a noble man!

After staring at the silver for a long time, the old man suddenly looked at Li Beifeng and was about to kneel down in the next second.

Li Beifeng had quick eyes and quick hands and quickly helped him up: "Old sir, what are you doing? You can't do it, you can't do it..."

The old man burst into tears with excitement: "Mr. Li, on behalf of all the children, thank you, you, you are really a kind person..."

For Li Beifeng, let alone twenty or thirty taels, even two or three hundred taels, for him now, he doesn't take it seriously.

Although he left Ping'an County, the pharmacy he stayed in Ping'an County was still making money.

Since suppressing Cao Yan's monopoly, and with the protection of the Su family and the Shen family, Li Beifeng's drug store has been in good order. Although it is not a fight for gold nowadays, for Li Beifeng today, money... he is really not short of it.

Not to mention, he is surrounded by rich women now.

It goes without saying that Shen Qingning, with the scale of her father's business, is not short of money at all.

Needless to say, the eldest princess, the royal princess, the whole world belongs to her family, will she be short of money?

Therefore, Li Beifeng really didn't take this money seriously.

But for the old gentleman, this money... is nothing but life-saving money!

These days, the school is actually almost unable to survive.

The school was getting worse and worse, and he was getting older and more and more unable to do his job. If he falls, what will these children do?

Well now, here comes the noble man!

There was hope for the school again, how could he not be excited and happy?

…

In the school, Li Beifeng walked around the school.

He had already informed people to go to the inn and contact the manager.

It's estimated that it won't take long for the shopkeeper to arrange all this.

After Li Beifeng walked around in a circle, he came to the grass outside the school.

On the grass, many children are playing there.

Li Beifeng came to the little girl named Xiao Si.

Xiaosi was obviously a little scared of strangers, and glanced at Li Beifeng timidly, his eyes a little evasive and afraid.

"Xiao Si, don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person!"

Li Beifeng tried his best to keep his smile friendly.

Xiao Si looked at Li Beifeng timidly, remembering her previous teacher's teachings in her mind.

The husband said that this elder brother was a benefactor and came to help them. He was not a bad person but a good person.

Thinking of this, Xiaosi nodded vigorously: "I, I'm not afraid. The husband said, brother, you are a good person..."

Seeing this scene, Li Beifeng felt a little distressed.

This little girl was obviously scared and nervous, but she pretended not to be scared.

Li Beifeng smiled and said: "Good person? Sir, did you tell me that I am a good person?"

"Um!"

Xiaosi nodded vigorously: "Sir, you said you are here to help us..."

Thinking of this, Xiao Si opened her eyes wide again, looked at Li Beifeng, hesitated for a moment, and asked cautiously in a low voice: "Sir said... we will have a new school soon, is it true?"

"it is true!"

Li Beifeng nodded and said: "In the future, you will have a new school to attend, and there will also be a new teacher to teach you how to read and write. In the future... you will not go hungry..."

"Very good!"

Xiaosi's eyes burst out with joy.

The skin that was originally slightly yellow seemed to have a new glow.

"Thank you brother..."

Xiao Si seemed to react, looking at Li Beifeng, and still spoke seriously.

His face was also full of gratitude and happiness. After all, he was still a child...although he looked very sensible.

Li Beifeng subconsciously reached out to touch her head, but Xiao Si also subconsciously avoided it, causing his hand to miss.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Si quickly showed a guilty look on his face: "Brother, I'm sorry..."

"fine!"

Li Beifeng waved his hand. The little girl was very vigilant, which was good.

He changed the subject: "Xiaosi, where do you live at home?"

"there……"

Xiao Si was confused and pointed in a direction.

It was in the direction of the blind old village woman.

"Who's at home?"

"Me and my mother!"

"Then did you listen to your mother at home?"

"have!"

"..."

While Li Beifeng was still exchanging friendly feelings with the little girl, a voice came from not far away.

"miss?"

Hearing this voice, Xiaosi's eyes suddenly lit up, and she immediately stood up and walked in one direction.

"Mother!"

Li Beifeng turned around and saw an old village woman with insomnia standing on the roadside not far away, leaning on a cane.

Xiaosi ran all the way and threw herself into her mother's arms.

The old village woman stroked her hair with a doting look on her face and asked, "Siannian, have you listened to your husband today?"

"have!"

Xiao Si nodded seriously.

Li Beifeng stood not far away, looking at the mother and daughter, a very warm scene.

The old man said that this old village woman had a cold personality and was inhumane... Maybe that was not the case.

At this time, Xiaosi seemed to have said something to her mother and pointed in the direction of Li Beifeng.

Then, under the leadership of Xiao Si, he walked away towards Li Beifeng.

"Brother, this is my mother..."

Xiaosi looked at Li Beifeng and introduced in a low voice.

Then he looked at my mother: "Mother, this is the big benefactor and elder brother I mentioned first..."

"Hello, benefactor!"

Although the old village woman could not see her eyes, she still said with excitement: "Thank you for taking care of Xiao Si, and thank you for everything you have done. I am a great benefactor..."

Li Beifeng looked at the old village woman, and then at Xiao Si who looked happy. After hesitating for a moment, he said softly: "It's okay, this is what I should do."

However, the moment the old village woman heard Li Beifeng's voice.

There was a sudden tremor all over her body.

His face suddenly changed.

The next second, she subconsciously protected Xiao Si behind her.

"You?! It's you?!"

The old village woman's voice suddenly changed.

She recognized Li Beifeng's voice.

Her expression was extremely vigilant, and she said with a fierce expression: "What do you want to do?!"

Li Beifeng sighed, he knew this would happen.

After a pause, he spoke softly: "Auntie, you misunderstood, I really didn't mean any harm..."

However, the old village woman didn't believe it at all.

She didn't know who the young man in front of her was, but his purpose... was too obvious!

He actually found his daughter? !

This made her feel frightened and extremely angry at the same time.

"You, if you dare to harm Missing, I will fight you to the death..."

She spoke angrily.

Such a style of painting made Xiao Si behind him confused!

She didn't know what happened, why... was her mother so angry suddenly?

Why was she angry at her eldest brother?

This, what's going on?

"mother……"

She carefully tugged on her mother's sleeve.

"Don't be afraid, Xiao Si. With your mother here, no one can bully you!"

The old village woman protected Xiao Si behind her and said in a sharp and angry tone: "What do you want to do? Just come at me, don't do anything to my daughter!"

"Let's talk!"

Li Beifeng looked at the village woman in front of him. Since he had been misunderstood, then... he might as well use the trick.

"I think you won't refuse!"

The old village woman was silent!

Obviously, Xiao Si is her lifeblood!

He didn't expect this young man to be so vicious. He couldn't find any clues from himself, but he found her daughter...

Fortunately she appeared in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous!

However, she understood... things were far from over.

After weighing her thoughts for a long time, she finally made a decision.

…

Among the huts.

Dim hut, simple room.

Xiaosi obediently poured a bowl of water for Li Beifeng.

The water was brought from the well, and the bowl was still partially broken.

Li Beifeng touched Xiaosi's hair.

This time, Xiao Si did not dodge.

But her little eyes were full of worry.

Looking at my mother and elder brother, I didn't know what was going on.

But she was obedient and didn't speak.

"Xiaosi, you go out to play first!"

The old village woman spoke.

Xiaosi looked at Li Beifeng worriedly, and Li Beifeng gave her a reassuring look.

Xiao Si then left the room.

After she left, only Li Beifeng and the blind old village woman sitting at the table opposite were left in the room.

The old village woman's tone was cold: "Tell me, what do you want to ask?"

"Whether you believe it or not, I did not have any ill intentions when I came here today...I came to you today just to ask you about a few things...other than that, I have no other meaning!"

Li Beifeng spoke.

The old village woman's tone was still cold: "Ask."

"Are you... the maid in the Northern Qi Palace back then?"

Li Beifeng asked directly.

The old village woman hesitated!

She was silent for a moment.

Finally, she said: "It's already a thing of the past, why bring it up?"

Admitted!

Li Beifeng already had a conclusion in his mind.

"Since you were a maid in the Northern Qi Palace back then...you should be very familiar with what happened in the palace when the Northern Qi Dynasty was destroyed, right?"

The old village woman's eyes gradually became alert: "What do you want to ask?"

"I heard that when the Northern Qi Dynasty fell, the Northern Qi royal family was slaughtered. But... there was still a child of the Northern Qi royal family who escaped and was sent out of the palace by the people in the palace at that time... This is the case Is it something?"

The old village woman's expression changed.

When she was about to speak, Li Beifeng said again: "You don't have to lie about this matter, everyone in the world has already known it!"

The old village woman said coldly: "Since you know, why are you still asking me?"

The old village woman's tone was still cold: "Ask."

"Are you... the maid in the Northern Qi Palace back then?"

Li Beifeng asked directly.

The old village woman hesitated!

She was silent for a moment.

Finally, she said: "It's already a thing of the past, why bring it up?"
