Wang Qiusheng was already worried about Xiao Li, so he hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and walked towards the back mountain with his sister in his arms.

...

back mountain,

It was quiet in the dense forest, and Wang Qiusheng walked forward panting with his sister on his back, coughing from time to time.

Jiaojiao was lying on the person's back, and the eldest brother coughed and his back was shaking. She said softly, "Brother, drink some water and rest."

Wang Qiusheng thought that the younger sister was thirsty, so he found a stone and put him down, panting heavily, pulled out the water bag and handed it to the younger sister, "Drink it, Jiaojiao."

Brother's mouth was dry and white, Jiaojiao shook her head and pushed the water bag over, "Drink, brother."

Wang Qiusheng's mouth was dry, so he took a sip without holding back, and then handed it to his younger sister to coax him, "Drink it, brother, Jiaojiao, drink it quickly, or your throat will hurt soon."

I heard that Jiaojiao just took a sip from the water bag, then returned the water bag to her brother, slipped off the stone, thumped her calf and said very seriously: "Well, my legs are numb, let's go for a walk It won't be numb anymore."

Wang Qiusheng saw the younger sister walking forward by herself, and hurriedly took the younger sister's hand and said: "Go slowly, and hold on to the elder brother's hand."

"it is good."

Two figures of different heights walked towards the back of the mountain.

Sudden,

A few white afterimages passed above them.

Ginseng essence is very sensitive to small sounds.

Jiaojiao stopped abruptly and looked up.

As soon as those figures above the head disappeared, only the treetops above the tree top trembled a few times, and the big delicate black eyes were full of surprise, "Wow."

"Jiaojiao, what's the matter?"

Wang Qiusheng saw the little girl looking up to the sky, and he also looked up, but saw nothing.

"Brother, there was someone just now." Jiaojiao looked away, and Bai Nuo's small face blinked with emotion, what a powerful human being, he was as brisk as a swallow.

When Wang Qiusheng heard that someone subconsciously protected his sister behind him, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous. He looked around warily, and shouted hesitantly, "Who, come out."

"Brother, they have already left." Jiaojiao tugged at the corner of the elder brother's clothes.

Her small face was a little emotional, she looked down at her little arms and legs, and really wanted to try to hurry like a swallow.

"Leaving?" Wang Qiusheng looked around, not even a sign of trouble, he didn't hear anyone from the beginning to the end, how could the younger sister even know that someone had left.

At this time, Jiaojiao's ears moved again, her eyes lit up, and it was Xiao Li's cry! She hurriedly pulled her eldest brother and said, "Brother, let's go find Xiao Li."

"En." Wang Qiusheng didn't think too much, and continued walking forward with his little sister.

Walking a little bit forward, Wang Qiusheng heard the voices of his younger brother and his mother. The younger brother seemed to be crying, so he suddenly became worried, picked up his younger sister and ran towards the place where the voice was.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."

The clothes on Xiao Li's body were covered with rubbed dirt and leaves, tears and snot flowed down his face, he rubbed his eyes and cried, "Wuuuu... Huzi let me go."

Liu Guihua took her youngest son's clothes by the back of the neck, and wiped his nose with a handkerchief. She was really angry and angry, sobbing and cursing: "You are worthless, Hu Zi, they let you drill in, so you can drill in." Ah! Your father has repeatedly warned you not to go anywhere, why do you listen to others, I will forget it if I am so angry!"

She almost didn't scare her to death just now, but fortunately she was entangled by the vines at the entrance of the cave, otherwise there would be no life in the bottomless abyss.

Wang Qiusheng walked over with Jiaojiao in his arms, put Jiaojiao down, stepped forward and pulled the younger brother from his mother's hand, coughed softly and said in a low voice: "Mother, my younger brother was afraid of falling into the tree hole, what did you call him?"

Xiao Li was aggrieved and hid in his elder brother's arms, his eyes were red and swollen, and his face was covered with tears.

"Qiusheng, what are you doing here? It's not to let you watch your sister stop running around. Oh, why is my baby so red?"

Seeing her daughter following behind, Liu Zhihua hurried forward, took Xinganbao to look around, and then heaved a sigh of relief, picked her up, and asked in a soft voice: "Jiaojiao, are you tired?"

Jiaojiao shook her head, "I'm not tired." As she said that, she took out a piece of malt candy from her pocket, and was about to give it to Xiao Li.

Liu Zhihua stopped him, and said helplessly: "Xiao Li did something wrong and didn't let him eat, so your father bought these for you, and they will be gone after eating."

Liu Zhihua patted her daughter's head, maltose was not cheap, and bought some for her because of illness, within two days of buying, the girl was almost gone.

Jiaojiao was taken aback, looked at her candy pocket, hesitated for a moment, saw that Xiao Li was staring greedily at the candy in her hand, her mouth was still moving, she stretched out her arm and handed it over, "Brother, eat."

Xiao Li's eyes lit up, a nasal bubble popped out of his nose, he happily got out of his elder brother's arms, picked up his mother's pants, picked up the maltose from his sister's hand on tiptoe, and put it in his mouth impatiently, gleeful Eat it up, "Hi sister~"

Liu Zhihua looked at her silly son, feeling suffocated, her family was poor, but her child was always being bullied like this, she felt uncomfortable and flustered.

Wang Qiusheng pulled the younger brother, patted the soil and leaves on his clothes, and asked with a frown, "Xiao Li, tell the elder brother how you fell into the tree hole?"

"I took out a lot of bird eggs, and the tiger bought them for a copper coin. Later, he insisted on taking me to drill a tree hole in the back mountain, and said that he would give me a lot of copper coins for the mud wall of our house. In the end, he didn't give it. He is a villain and a liar."

Xiao Li was happy after eating the candy, and said everything in one go.

After finishing speaking, he also took out a handful of stones from his pocket, and there was a dirty copper plate in it. The little black hand picked out the copper plate, handed it to his sister and said with a smirk, "My sister buys a headband."

When Liu Zhihua heard this, tears came out immediately, and she cried: "You bastard! Did you miss the money? I am short for you to eat or short for you to wear. We are poor, but your father can earn money. The money is for you to spend, stay away from them in the future."

Seeing his mother crying, Xiao Li hurriedly nodded in fright, and said obediently: "Mother~ Xiao Li is obedient, if you don't sell tiger cubs, their eggs won't make any money."

Wang Qiusheng curled his fingers hanging by his side, lowered his eyes and pursed his lips, and said with a bit of self-blame in his voice, "It's all my fault, I spent too much money."

In fact, the family didn't need much money, and all the money my father earned from selling wild goods was used to buy medicine for him and pay for his wife's tuition.

Liu Zhihua said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about, kid, you are our family's hope in the future, study hard and get fame and glory in the future, let those who look down on us see it, and give your parents a good reputation."

After finishing speaking, Liu Zhihua became happier again. The eldest son learned everything quickly, and the masters in the school said that he would be successful in the future. If he was successful in the future, he would be able to protect his younger siblings.

Wang Qiusheng's eyelids trembled slightly, he curled up his fingertips and held it, bowed his head and did not speak.

He didn't dare to tell his mother that he had dropped out of school from his master, and the tuition fee had increased by two taels of silver this year. The family was already struggling, so how could they save two taels of silver.

"Have Qiusheng heard that, you can study in the school with peace of mind, and you don't have to worry about the bank affairs." Liu Zhihua said.

Qiu Sheng replied in a low voice, "...um."

Jiaojiao lay on her mother's shoulder and listened to their talk, holding the dirty copper plate that Xiao Li gave her, blinking her black and white eyes, it turned out that the family was so poor.

Well, how do humans make money? She also wants to make money for her family.
