After crossing the mountains, Gu Liuxi and others came to a small village, which was already the border area of ​​the Cangyue Empire. Although the Cangyue Empire was an ally with its neighboring Sunset Empire, some unsatisfactory things often happened within the border.

Before entering the Sunset Empire, Gu Liuxi and others decided to stay in this small village for a few days and wait for good news before making their next plan.

Because of what happened that night, Gu Liuxi had ignored Xiaoran for several days. At this moment, Xiaoran seemed to have become an abandoned child, with a pitiful look on his face, and his watery eyes seemed to be filled with regret and hope.

Get her forgiveness.

Whenever faced with Xiaoran's pitiful gaze, Gu Liuxi always looked away ruthlessly, completely ignoring the pitiful gaze.

Xiao Ran was like a child who had done something wrong, following Gu Liuxi until Gu Liuxi returned to the room and closed the door. He stood alone in front of the door.

When Chi Heng walked in, he saw Xiaoran standing pitifully in front of the door alone, with his head lowered, looking pitiful.

Chi Heng glanced at Xiaoran and couldn't help but shake his head. He walked up to Xiaoran, stretched out his hand and touched his little head, pretending to be casual and said: "Why are you standing here and not going in?"

Xiaoran raised his eyes and glanced at Chi Heng with his water-clear eyes. Her pitiful eyes seemed to tell him that Mommy was still angry, and then she lowered her eyes silently.

These two people really have a stubborn temper.

Chi Heng knocked on the door, "Xiao Xi, are you asleep? If not, I'll go in."

"Come in!" Gu Liuxi responded from inside.

Chi Heng pushed the door open and walked in, but instead of closing the door, he deliberately left it open.

Gu Liuxi naturally saw it, but she just pretended not to see it. She didn't understand Chi Heng's behavior, but she was still struggling...

The events of that night were still vivid in her mind, which cast a shadow on her psychology.

In the past few days, she knew that Xiaoran was begging for her forgiveness. It was not that she didn't see it, but that she didn't know how to accept it.

He is hungry, but if he eats a tiger, what happens next? Will he eat all the people? Is it a right thing or a mistake for them to take him on the road like this?

In the past few days, she had been thinking about this matter very seriously, and had also thought about giving up on him and sending him back to Mao Lin and Mao You.

However, every time I came into contact with Xiaoran's child-like innocent eyes, I hesitated.

Chi Heng walked to Gu Liuxi. Outside the window was a vegetable garden, which was green at first glance. Because he was staying in a family's home in a small village. The house was an ordinary short bungalow, and he could see the outside at a glance outside the window.

"It's been so many days and I'm still angry! Children are not sensible and often make mistakes. You see, he has been very obedient and obedient these past few days. Just forgive him this time! After this incident

After the incident, he didn't dare to do that again. Yinci and I both educated him, and he promised us that he would never do this again. You see, he has sincerely admitted his mistakes in the past few days. You! Just

Pay attention to him! Otherwise he will probably stand at your door all night."

I don't know whose temper this child has. He is as stubborn as a cow. If he hadn't known that there was no blood relationship between them, he would have thought that they were a family.

No matter how good Chi Heng said, Gu Liuxi remained unmoved. It wasn't that she was hard-hearted, but that Xiaoran's behavior made her unable to let go. It was unacceptable to normal humans.

Being with a little monster who can eat raw meat, her life is always worried, maybe one day he will eat her too.

Gu Liuxi finally let out a long sigh, turned around and went out and said to the little man standing outside the door: "Come in!"

Xiao Ran raised his head, his eyes showed an expression of surprise, and he stammered and shouted: "Ma... Ma..." This was when they were on the road together, and Gu Liuxi pretended to be his parents in order to deceive others and Yinci.

Gu Liuxi originally taught her to call her mother, but the little one called her mommy, and the pronunciation of the call was mommy... She was still madou!

"It's mom." Gu Liuxi corrected his pronunciation again.

The little guy looked at her with bulging eyes and weakly shouted: "Mom..."

Okay! Ma Ma is Ma Ma, at least better than Ma Ma!

Gu Liuxi first asked him to come in and sit down, and made a three-part agreement with him.

First: Do not harm humans at any time or anywhere.

Second: Don’t eat any raw meat without her.

Third: You must always listen to his words.

If you can't do it, send him back.

Xiaoran barely understood the three chapters of the agreement between Gu Liuxi and him. Anyway, he could not disobey whatever Mama said in the future.

After so many days of gloom, the weather finally cleared up and the atmosphere was so good.

The next day, Gu Liuxi got up early. The family that took them in was an old couple over fifty years old. The couple had no children in their lives and made a living by making wine. They packed the wine and delivered it to a nearby tavern early every morning.

We lived in poverty there, but the couple were very kind.

Not only do they not charge money to live here, they also provide them with three meals a day for free.

Gu Liuxi felt a little sorry for receiving such a favor for no reason, so early in the morning she roped in two grown men, Yinci and Chi Heng, to help the old man with the work.

The old man made a lot of wine, all kinds of wine, and some fruit wine suitable for children and women.

The fruit wine is very fragrant, and I don’t know how the old man made it. I smell it and I want to drink it. As if she knew what Gu Liuxi was thinking, the old woman opened a wine jar, took a big spoon and took out a spoonful, and said kindly

: "Daughter, come and have a drink and see how you like this wine! It has been stored for more than three months, and it is just right to drink it at this time..."

Gu Liuxi pressed her lips. She really wanted to drink. Seeing the old woman's enthusiasm, she couldn't refuse, so she took a small sip with a spoon.

This wine was not as spicy as the ones she usually drank. It was like fruit wine. It was sweet and had some alcoholic taste. It tasted very delicious. She couldn't help but take a few more sips before she praised: "Mother-in-law,

This wine is really delicious." It has the aroma of orange and strawberry, and it feels like many fruits are mixed together.

Seeing Gu Liuxi drinking happily, Xiaoran also joined in and said, "Mama...Wo, Yayaohe..."

"No, children can't drink."

Seeing this, the old woman said: "It's okay, it's okay. This wine is not intoxicating. You can smell some alcohol in it! There is no alcohol at all. It is pure natural fruit wine. Drinking it is good for your body and will not be harmful to your body."

Since Xiaoran likes it, let him try it!"

The old woman said so, and Gu Liuxi couldn't help but give him a small sip.

Seeing how cute the child was, the old woman secretly let Xiaoran take a few sips when Gu Liuxi wasn't paying attention. In fact, Gu Liuxi even saw it, and the young and old thought she didn't see it!

However, seeing that the old woman liked Xiaoran so much, she could only smile.

After a while, Yinci and Chi Heng helped the grandfather load all the wine into the human-pulled cart. Usually, the grandfather and the old woman pushed dozens of jars of wine to the market, but now Yinci

Two strong young men and Chi Heng helped, which reduced the time by half.

Gu Liuxi suddenly became excited and wanted to go to the market with the old man and the old woman. Anyway, they hadn't gone around to look around when they got here, so they might as well help the old man and the old woman deliver the wine to the market. Look at this

A cart full of wine, how hard it must be for the old man to pull the cart alone!

Gu Liuxi wanted to go to the market with him, and the old man and the old woman were naturally happy. Yinci even acted as a driver himself, pulling the cart for the old man. The old man and the old woman followed behind to help push the cart. In fact, Yinci even had this little strength.

It was trivial to say the least, but the old man often told him to stop and rest for a while before leaving. Yinci could not directly say that he was not tired at all, so he and Chi Heng could only take turns pulling the cart.

Xiaoran was put on top of the wine by Gu Liuxi. She was afraid that walking so much would tire him, so she put him directly in the car.

They arrived at the market happily like a family.

It was still early when they arrived at the market, several hours faster than the old man pulling the cart alone.

The so-called market is the transfer place between the Cangyue Empire and the Sunset Empire. People from all walks of life often pass by here, so the market is very lively, with all kinds of people coming and going.

In the past, because of Yinci, Chi Heng, and Xiaoran's identities, they always walked on mountain roads. Naturally, Xiaoran had never seen so many people before. He was very excited for a moment. This was the most people he had ever seen.

Seeing so many people, he sniffed hard, as if he smelled the aroma of meat, and rubbed his teeth quietly up and down. Looking at the various human beings walking by, his eyes showed hunger.

I'm thirsty, I'm so hungry, I really want to eat meat.

As if aware of Xiaoran's hungry eyes on others, Yinci calmly picked up Xiaoran and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "You are not allowed to think randomly, and you are not allowed to look at others, you know? You know?

If you do this again, your mother will be angry again."

When she thought that Mommy didn't like him like this, Xiaoran couldn't help but shrink back in Yinci's arms and cover her mouth with her two little hands: "Baba, Wozai Yebu is sick..."

Yinci touched his head kindly and said, "Be good now. Bear with me for a while. I'll buy some wine for the grandpa and old lady later. Dad will take you to eat good food, okay?"

"Yeah!" Xiaoran nodded obediently, and the boy was so drunk...

"What are you two doing behind me? Hurry up and catch up, otherwise you will get lost when there are too many people." Gu Liuxi, who was walking in front, waved in their direction.

"Okay, we'll come right away."
Chapter completed!
