Chapter 33 Bad intentions
The little girl quickly understood what Tangning meant, and without a word, she took out a few herbs that could be used and handed them to the second fool, "These are for treating cold and fever, and they can be used."

She spoke slowly, and the three of them finally understood.

It was only now that Tangning realized that the little girl's words were similar to theirs, but she had a strong local accent. As long as she spoke slowly, they could still communicate.

After giving the herbs, the little girl said: "You are hungry, wait a moment, I will cook for you."

"No, no, no." Tang Zheng resolutely rejected the little girl's offer, and pointed to the bamboo tube they brought with embarrassment, "If it's possible, can you help us get some water?"

This time the little girl was in a bit of trouble, she sat down and rubbed her hands and said sullenly: "The spring in the village stopped flowing two months ago, and now everyone has to go to the village head's house to buy water. My grandfather just passed away, and all the springs in the family All the money was used for the funeral, and I owed the aunt next door twenty cents, I am penniless, and the water left in the house is only half a bucket, which may not be enough for you."

Tangning's expression changed upon hearing this, and she asked worriedly, "You and your grandfather are the only ones in your house, are there no one else?"

The little girl looked sad, she pursed her lips and shook her head, choked with sobs and said: "My mother died early, my elder brother was forcibly taken away because of military service, originally he didn't have to go, but there are too many people who escaped. My eldest brother was forcibly dragged away when there were not enough people, and grandpa was bedridden because of this, and passed away in a few days."

Tangning and the others were so frightened that their expressions changed drastically. They looked at each other and were speechless for a while.

It took Tang Zheng a while to ask: "What is the girl's future plan?"

Such a half-old child is still a little girl, lonely and helpless, he really can't just sit idly by.

The little girl shook her head with a sad and bewildered expression, "I don't know, just take one step at a time."

Everyone was speechless for a while, just at this moment there were voices coming from outside the yard.

The little girl rushed out without waiting for anyone to enter the door, "Aunt Tao."

"Hey! You girl is at home! How is it? Is your grandfather's affairs settled? Let me tell you, everyone is in trouble now, and I know your situation, but I still have to lick my face and tell you something. Mention, I know you won't be able to get the twenty essays for a while, so I'll give you three days, will you pay me back after three days?
My aunt didn't mean to make things difficult for you, but after borrowing you twenty coins, your uncle saw that my nose is not a nose, and my eyes are not eyes. If I don't take the twenty coins back, I won't be able to stay in that house anymore!

If you really can't afford twenty Wen, you can go to the county town and tell you."

Tangning and the three of them didn't hear what the woman said, because the voice suddenly became quieter. After a while, the little girl entered the door again, her complexion as pale as paper, and tears still rolling in her eyes.

Tangning hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her, "What's going on? Just tell me if you have any troubles, and we'll help you find a solution."

The little girl burst into tears suddenly, and said intermittently: "Aunt Tao asked me for Wen, and she only gave me three days. My Wanhualou sells herself, I know she just wants to trick me into selling myself to make money, woo woo woo."

"It's unreasonable!" Tang Zheng was so angry that he patted the table heavily, his face full of anger.

Er Lengzi frowned and asked, "You know what she's thinking, why do you need to borrow twenty Wen from her?"

The little girl looked at Tang Zheng pitifully, "Because no one is willing to lend me money except her."

Tang Zheng realized later that there was only one little girl left in this family, and whoever dared to lend her money would most likely be a meat bun beating a dog without repaying the loan.

If Aunt Tao next door really wanted to help this girl, she would not let her bury Grandpa on the mountain alone. Since the next door has bad intentions, it would be troublesome for this little girl to be targeted.

Tang Zheng didn't need to tell everyone about this.

Tangning kept furrowing her brows in deep thought, before she said quietly, "I'm afraid there are a lot of people out there staring at a man like Big Brother, if he shows up, he might be arrested and sent to serve in the military.

If the eldest brother can trust me, I will take the herbs back to my father first. Nizi's situation can't be delayed, and the second fool is smaller. Let's see if I can change into a dress and dress up as a girl to go to the county with us.

Let's take the remaining herbs from this girl's family, maybe we can exchange them for some money. "

This time Tang Zheng didn't say anything to hesitate or stop him. Instead, he handed over the ten coins that he brought out of his arms to Tang Ning, "You are my own sister, I definitely believe in you, daddy will just give me these, there is only ten coins left , the rest is up to you, safety first, it doesn’t matter even if you can’t get the money, we’ll think of a way, if not, let this girl leave with us.”

Tangning nodded heavily and watched Tang Zheng leave before looking at the little girl, "What should I call you?"

Before the little girl recovered from the shock, she subconsciously replied, "My name is Du Chunyue."

"My name is Tang Ning. This is an idiot. The one who left just now is my elder brother named Tang Zheng. We know each other now. Let's go to the county seat and try to get something back." Tang Ning geared up, looking ready to do something big posture.

Perhaps influenced by her optimism, Du Chunyue suppressed her tears and made up her mind to turn around and go to the room to get a suit of clothes from the bottom of the box and give them to the second fool, "This is the wedding dress my mother made for me before she died of illness. Now I must be If you can’t wear it, it should be just right for you.”

"Marry, marry, marry?" Er Lengzi was terrified, and his whole body was full of resistance.

Tangning urged, "Hurry up, don't delay everyone's work, it's useless for you to wear such good clothes, you have to take it easy, don't get dirty."

"I, I, I..." The second fool was so angry that he couldn't speak for the first time.

After aggrievedly changing into his dress, Tangning quickly combed him into a double bun and smeared some dust on his face. It really looked like that. As long as the idiot stays silent, no one else will suspect him gender.

Tangning glanced at her "work" in satisfaction, then turned her head and said to Du Chunyue, "Pack up your things and we'll go out now. From now on, the second idiot will be a dumb girl. Let's call him second sister."

The idiot had given up struggling and let Tangning make arrangements.

It only took the group of people two quarters of an hour to reach the county seat. Only now did Tangning realize how close they were to the county seat. No wonder there were so many pedestrians on the official road.

Du Chunyue led them in through a remote gatehouse, and said to the two of them: "Now there are a lot more guards in the county, but they all keep an eye on men and horses and donkeys. Girls like us don't care much about it." .”
