Mianmian immediately took out two pills from her sleeve, one for herself, and one for Qing'er, and gestured to him: "This can detoxify."

Qing'er took the pill and swallowed it in one gulp, and the two slowly let go of the hand covering their noses.

The two moved quickly to hide on either side of the door.

The bandits in the house heard that there was no movement inside, looked at each other, and then slowly pushed the door open.

After the group entered the door, they set their target on the bed, and then rushed over together, who knew that the bed was empty.

"Second brother, there's no one here.

"There's no girl here!" The

blindfolded man was startled, and quickly turned his head to look at the door, only to see that the door was closed.

After they entered the house, Mianmian and Qing'er secretly went out, closed the door, and put up a big lock.

"Second brother, look

, the door is locked!" The blindfolded man heard the call, and immediately rushed to the door, kicked hard, and found that the door was indeed locked.

Mianmian heard the movement inside, and asked Qing'er, "Qing'er, what about these people

?" Qing'er stretched out her hand to her, "Do you have a medicinal powder on your body that can draw out poisonous insects?"

Mianmian nodded after listening, "Yes."

Qing'er said, "Give it to me."

Mianmian took out the medicinal powder and handed it to Qing'er's hand.

Qing'er sprinkled the powder in the crack of the door.

Mianmian asked, "Qing'er, who are you?"

Qing'er said slowly: "I don't know how many lives these mountain bandits have killed here, it's time to clean up."

Mianmian listened and immediately helped him pour the medicine powder together.

After the powder was poured, the two immediately left the place.

As soon as they left, a group of poisonous insects slowly crawled into the house smelling the smell of the medicinal powder.

The blindfolded man kicked the door and scolded, "Wait until I catch that little lady and see what I do with her! A

crowd rushed forward to bang on the door.

Who knew that as soon as he arrived at the door, a poisonous scorpion happened to fall on one of the eyes of the blindfolded man.

"Second brother, your eyes!" The

blindfolded man took down the poisonous scorpion with his hand, and when he saw what it was, he jumped up in fright, and said while shaking his hand: "This! Where is this poisonous scorpion!"

However, before anyone could reply to him, everyone else was full of poisonous scorpions.

Soon there were screams in the house.

By this time, the night was dark, and they had not yet found a new carriage.

In desperation, they had to go to a nearby farmhouse to borrow a place to live.

After walking for a mile, I found a house.

The family looked at the old house that looked a little like the Zhou family's dilapidated old mansion in the past, a mud-built house, covered with thick thatch, and that house Mianmian and Qing'er had never seen it.

Mianmian and Qing'er knocked on the door together.

It didn't take long for an old man to slowly walk inside.

The old man was full of gray hair, and when he saw Qing'er the moment he opened the door, he suddenly called: "Yuan'er, Juan'er, you are back!"

Mianmian hurriedly said: "Mama, you recognize the wrong person, we are a merchant passing by here, and I would like to ask you to stay in your house for one night." The

old lady came back to her senses slightly, she rubbed her eyes and looked again, and found that she really recognized the wrong person.

When she saw that it was two young people, she enthusiastically welcomed them into the house, "Quick, come in, it's easy to make bandits around here, and if they touch it, it's not good."

Mianmian smiled at her and thanked, "Thank you, Mama." The

old lady took them into her dilapidated house with an oil lamp.

She took two steps, hung up the oil lamp, and asked them, "Where are you two going, why are you on the road in the middle of the night?"

"Mama, we're not..."

Qing'er took over and said, "We are going back to the capital, and when we are on the way, the horse is injured, so we can only settle here first." When

the old lady heard him come home like this, she tacitly assumed that the two of them were newlyweds.

So of course, the only guest room in the house was reserved for the two of them.

And also cooked them a bowl of egg soup.

The old woman lives here alone, and the family lives on an old hen and a small plot.

The two eggs for Mianmian were the last two in her chicken coop.

Mianmian didn't know that after eating, she asked the old woman about her.

Only then did I know that this grandmother was a lonely old man in the village, with a poor family, and she had a son and daughter earlier, and then her son went to join the army, her daughter got married, and her wife died, so she was the only one left.

She hadn't seen her child for more than a decade, that's why she did.

Mianmian felt a little guilty when she thought of her eating Mama's last two eggs, and after thinking about it, she smiled and said, "Mama, don't worry, maybe in a few days, they will be able to come back." The

old lady was a very cheerful person, and when she heard this, she laughed, "I hope so."

She turned her head sideways at Mianmian and them, "How many years have you been married?" Mianmian

was speechless for a while.

Qing'er, who had been silent, said slowly: "We are childhood sweethearts, if we get married... It's been a year. "
