The Villain’s Memories Revealed Chapter 84: Candied haws are not just candied haws
Amidst the discussions from the surrounding crowd and Jiang Zhige's questioning eyes, the old woman finally couldn't bear the pressure and chose to confess.
She did steal the candied haws, but she was taken home long ago, and may have been eaten by her grandson.
The girl didn't scold the old woman, she just wanted to get her candied haws back.
So, knowing that it was unlikely, the girl followed the old woman to find her grandson.
Jiang Zhige hesitated for a moment, then followed.
He was not curious to watch the excitement, but this girl was the most talented child he had met since he went out.
If there is no problem with the girl's temperament and character, Jiang Zhige will bring her back to Tianyun Pavilion for training.
The two followed the old woman for about half an hour, until they reached a relatively desolate area in the city.
The houses are old and close together, the lanes are dilapidated and covered with moss, the air smells musty everywhere, and you can smell a strange stench every time you walk.
This place is very far from the city, and it takes at least half an hour to walk to the place where candied haws are sold.
Not long after, the old woman led the two into a small courtyard. There was only a narrow thatched hut inside, and the courtyard was covered with weeds. If you don't look carefully, you can't see that there are people living there.
A six or seven-year-old boy with a runny nose was squatting in the yard, happily playing with ants with a stick.
The old woman stood at the gate of the courtyard with a tangled face and did not make a sound for a long time.
The girl who was anxious to get the candied haws back was silent for some reason.
After a long silence, no one spoke, but the boy noticed that the old woman had returned home.
"Grandma, you are back! I'm so hungry, can we not have porridge tonight?"
The boy hurried to the old woman, totally oblivious to the solemn atmosphere.
The old woman wiped the boy's nose with her hand, and said with a forced smile, "Ah Liang, the bunch of candied haws that grandma gave you..."
When the candied haws were mentioned, the boy immediately became excited and shouted: "I still have the candied haws. I want to eat them together when grandma comes back!"
As he spoke, he ran into the thatched cottage and took out a bunch of candied haws that had already melted into sugar water.
"The sugar and candied haws are gone..."
The boy choked up in a low voice, and the snot that had just been wiped flowed out again.
The old woman was quite flustered when she saw this, and was about to explain to the girl, but she interrupted: "Grandma Wang, I don't want candied haws, Yaya, you can eat."
"Nizi, old lady, I stole your candied haws. I am guilty, but the candied haws can still be eaten. Later, later, I will pay you one more..."
The old woman said so, but she didn't have any confidence when it came to compensation.
The girl shook her head, smiled and said, "No need, it's just a candied haws..."
When the old woman heard the words, she blamed herself even more, with muddy tears overflowing from her eyes, she lowered her head and dared not look at the girl and Jiang Zhige.
For those who live at the bottom, candied haws are not just a candied haw?
Before, she saw the girl kneeling in front of the yamen, crying heartbroken.
The girl didn't speak any more, she turned and left the small yard silently.
Jiang Zhige didn't make a sound either, and quietly observed the girl's expression from the side.
The girl said it was just a candied haws, but now her eyes were red, and she looked like she was holding back tears.
Obviously, she didn't dislike the candied haws, which were only unpalatable when only the hawthorn was left.
Perhaps it was too sad, the girl didn't notice that Jiang Zhige was still by her side, she lowered her head and held back her tears as she walked home.
Not far away, the girl stopped in front of a dilapidated house, opened the door and walked in.
Jiang Zhige knew in his heart that the place where the girl lived was not far from that small courtyard, and in all likelihood, he and the old woman had known each other for a long time.
Following into the courtyard, Jiang Zhige found that there were actually more weeds in this courtyard, and the house lacked bricks and tiles and was dilapidated.
If you guessed right, the girl is not the original owner of the house, she just sneaked in after watching the house being abandoned.
When Jiang Zhige looked away, the girl was already squatting under the eaves, with her head buried as if crying.
Jiang Zhige quietly walked over and sat next to the girl, looking down at her face, he couldn't help being stunned.
At this time, the girl's tears were gushing like a bank bursting, and it was a bit inferior to describe it with tears all over her face. She was crying heartbroken, but she tried her best not to let herself cry.
It seems that even Jiang Zhige underestimated the importance of the bunch of candied haws to the girl.
The girl cried for an unknown amount of time, until she stopped crying, she was still sobbing non-stop.
As a result, the girl waited for a long time, and it was getting late before she made herself look normal.
The girl wiped her tears vigorously, got up and was about to walk into the house, when she suddenly found Jiang Zhige sitting beside her.
"You, you are..."
The girl stayed where she was, unable to react for a while.
She remembered that Jiang Zhige was the big brother who helped her in front of the Yamen, but she didn't realize that Jiang Zhige followed her all the way to the house.
Jiang Zhige sighed lightly, and instead of answering, asked, "Girl~IndoMTL.com~What's your name?"
Perhaps because of her shy personality, the girl replied timidly, "I, my name is Mo Yaya..."
………
"Mo Yaya? What kind of name is this?"
"When it comes to Mo, why do I feel that this little girl looks a little like deja vu?"
"Damn, her surname is Mo, she could be..."
The girl who heard the light and shadow picture claimed her surname was Mo, and many people in the hall all cast their eyes on Mo Ziyan.
At this moment, everyone discovered that Mo Ziyan had more sadness and memories in his eyes than before.
Reminiscent of the rumors about the Devil Emperor's acquaintance with Mo Ziyan in his early years, it is hard for everyone not to suspect that Mo Yaya in the light and shadow picture is Mo Ziyan.
However, in terms of appearance alone, there is a huge difference between Mo Yaya and Mo Ziyan in the light and shadow.
When I saw the young Nangongrou for the first time, the cute face of the young Nangongrou was somewhat similar to her today, but the Mo Yaya in the light and shadow has nothing to do with the words cute and beautiful, let alone the ten-year-old girl in today's world. Fairy Ziyan, one of the great beauties.
...........
Jiang Zhige didn't bother with the name, and then asked: "Yaya, to you, does that bunch of candied haws have special meaning?"
When the candied haws were mentioned, Mo Yaya's expression became aggrieved and sad again, as if she was about to cry again.
Jiang Zhige didn't intend to comfort him, but just watched Mo Yaya quietly.
Mo Yaya held back her tears for a while, but in the end she still didn't cry, and began to explain the candied haws to Jiang Zhige.
After listening to Mo Yaya's words, Jiang Zhige was speechless for a moment, with mixed emotions in his heart.
Mo Yaya didn't buy those bunches of candied haws for herself, and she didn't shed those tears for herself.
