Out the trail, on the dirt road.

The number of pedestrians gradually increased, the porters and traders carried the baskets and hawked their goods in the streets and alleys.

In the street stalls and shops, there are various voices of bargaining, you come and go, it is very lively.

In the restaurant,

"Little Er come with two bowls of noodles" and "Okay, please wait a moment", the shop assistants move between the lobby and the back kitchen neatly, passing dishes, drinking wine and attracting customers. They are always smiling and busy. Also happy.

Lou Zhao held his own baggage firmly in his hands, and carried peipei all the way to the small town. As the noon sun rose day by day, he thought that the little baby should be hungry, so he was going to find an inn to rest first.

PeiPei lying on Lou Zhao's thin back, she was a little drowsy, and didn't know how long he had been walking from the outskirts of the city.

"This guest officer, do you still live in the store?" Seeing the young man with a baby at the door of the store, the man greeted him enthusiastically and asked skillfully.

"Stay in the shop." Lou Zhao said gently.

In the past, if he was the only one alone, he would save as much as he could, and would be able to sleep in the suburbs for one night. But now that there is a child on his back, he can't be so sloppy, especially since the child's health is not very good. 

Lou Zhao randomly found an empty seat, turned his head slightly, and said softly, 

"I'm hungry, let's go first. Eat something."

Then he slowly squatted down and put down the doll on his back.

PeiPei did not speak and sat silently on the long bench of the inn, with two little feet dangling in the air; this bench was really not very friendly to her, it was obvious that he was bullying her small.

Lou Zhao asked the guy for two bowls of noodles, turned around, and sat next to peipei.

"We're going to stay here for a few days and prepare some herbs." He said to peipei gently.

"By the way, by the way, I still don't know what your name is."

Looking at the indifferent face of the little doll in front of him, Lou Zhao smiled brightly, and said softly, "Can you tell me?"

A moment of silence.

Lou Zhao was not in a hurry, still smiling gently, waiting patiently for her to speak.

"Accompany me." A childish voice rang in his ears.

Lou Zhao looked at those big clear and bright eyes seriously, and said solemnly, "PeiPei, hello. It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Lou Zhao."

This person is a little silly.

Pei Pei stared at Lou Zhao's smiling face and thought quietly.

The face is ready.

Lou Zhao took two bowls of noodles from the second shop assistant, took out a bowl and placed it in front of his companion. The fragrant scorpion was poured on the snow-white surface, and there was a big chicken thigh in the bowl.

"Hurry up and eat." Lou Zhao said softly.

Pei Pei looked at the clear soup noodles sprinkled with only a few chopped green onions in her bowl, her thick eyelashes drooped, didn't know what she was thinking.

"What's the matter?" 

Lou Zhao was a little puzzled when he saw the little doll not moving her chopsticks. Immediately showing a clear look,

"Is it still possible to make chopsticks?" A slightly smiling voice sounded.

Pei Pei glanced at him, but said nothing.

"That's it, I'll feed you."

Lou Zhao put down the chopsticks in his hand, picked up the bowl in front of peipei noodles, "Ah" coaxing the five-year-old baby in front of him like a one or two-year-old baby. don't know what to think of, but Peipei opened her mouth obediently, but did not refuse.

One bite of chicken thigh, one bite of noodles. Soon, Lou Zhao realized that something was wrong, and frowned slightly.

"You can't just eat meat and not vegetables. Children won't grow taller like this."

When he fed her the chicken in the bowl, she ate it obediently; when he fed the noodles, she also ate a few mouthfuls; however, When feeding her the green vegetables in the bowl, she refused to stick a bite.

"Children can't be picky eaters." 

Lou Zhao pretended to be serious.

As a doctor, he understands that children who are growing and developing need a variety of nutritional balances.

"No." 

Peipei turned her head and frowned, she hated eating vegetables.

Astringent and light taste, the color is like grass.

She is not vegetarian.

This is a matter of principle and must not be compromised.

No matter how Lou Zhao persuaded, she refused to take a bite, and pushed the big bowl in front of her aside.

Full of bear child appearance.

In the end, Lou Zhao could only sigh slightly, poured all the noodles and vegetables left in the peipei bowl into his own big bowl. He didn't mind and ate it cleanly.

Peipei blinked her bright big eyes and kept staring at Lou Zhao.

Aren't you angry?

After lunch, Lou Zhao settled down with her in the guest room upstairs. PeiPei stay in an empty room, looking at the environment in the room at will.

She lowered her head again and touched her chubby belly.

It's like this again, obviously still feel hungry in my heart, but my little body is full and can't continue to eat. 

But now she has learned.

Eat in moderation, as much as you should eat at each age.

Lying lazily on the small couch, after waiting for a while, Peipei opened a pair of big eyes. Amber pupils reflected the wood on the beams.

Is he not coming back? Do you think she is troublesome and unruly. So, leaving her alone and sneaking away, peipei on the couch turned over and looked indifferent.

It's better to leave, so you don't have to keep nagging and annoying.

The wooden door behind Squeak opened.

"Come back, peipei." 

Lou Zhao's clear voice sounded.

Not getting an echo, he looked up and looked around. Seeing the little figure lying on the couch, he walked over and said softly, "The doctor once said, lying down to sleep just after you're full is not good for your health. For the sake of your health, it's best."

After Lou Zhao finished speaking at length, the little body on the couch moved, peipei slowly turning around and sitting up.

Seeing this, Lou Zhao smiled. Walking to the table, "Look, what did I buy you?"

He took out a little girl's dress from a new bag.

"It's a new dress." He said with a smile. "There aren't any ready-to-wear shops around here, I ran several streets to buy them."

"I see that your clothes are also dirty. Change them and put them there. I'll wash them later. Now put the new clothes on. Put it on and try it out to see if it fits."

Lou Zhao compared the clothes in front of peipei, "I also thought that I might have bought it, but it might be a little bigger. The proprietress said it was fine. Children grow up fast"

"Do you like it?" 

He looked at the little doll in front of him and smiled softly. Pei Pei looked at Lou Zhao, blinked her eyes, said nothing. She silently took the little dress in his hand. 

The clothes are soft and made of fine cotton yarn.

"The proprietress said that this style is the most popular, so I bought it. If you don't like it, I'll take you to buy another one later." Lou Zhao smiled embarrassedly.

Just now, all the customers in the clothing store were women and women, he was the only big man. Although there was nothing to be embarrassed about, there were so many exploratory eyes and strange eyes in the shop looking at him from behind, making him wonder if there was something wrong with him. 

Knowing that he was going to buy a girl's ready-to-wear, the proprietress enthusiastically introduced it to him. 

Even the old lady who was cutting cloth in the shop had a smile on her face and came over to help him choose. While choosing clothes, the aunts inquired about his family background, and were excited to be a matchmaker for him when they learned that Lou Zhao was not married yet. 

Lou Zhao managed to escape from the encirclement of several aunts. He could n't help but sighed that the folk customs here are really simple and fast. 

she changed into a small blue dress, and when she came out of the inner room, Lou Zhao was no longer in the house. 

A familiar voice was faintly heard outside the window, and peipei go to the wooden paper window, opened the half-closed window, and looked down. 

"Wow!" The sound of water pouring into the tub sounded. 

This is the second floor, the window of the room is connected to the backyard of the inn, where the guys in the shop usually chop firewood and boil water. After Lou Zhao picked up a bucket of water from the well, he borrowed a wooden basin from the store, put peipei changed clothes in the basin, and washed it slowly with soap horns. 

Until now, Peipei has not opened her mouth to tell Lou Zhao her origin, who her parents are or where she lives.

Lou Zhao didn't ask any further questions. He thought that since the child didn't want to speak, there must be a reason why she didn't want to speak. Why bother to get to the bottom of it? 

The most important thing now is to solve the fetal poison in this child.

He checked the pulse, the toxins on her body should have been brought from her mother's womb.

This kind of toxicity is especially overbearing. Although it is not fatal now, it is especially painful to attack. How could such a young child endure such torture?

Lou Zhao is still not fully confident that he can be completely relieved of.

........

becoming the king 's mansion. After peipei jumped into the lake, the atmosphere in the mansion became very depressing and dull.

On that day, Ye Qingchen sent many guards who were good at swimming to dive into the lake and searched around along the river.

However, the tributaries of the river network are densely covered, and once you swim out of the lake, there will be more than a dozen forks, not to mention that there are countless undercurrents at the bottom of the river.

A large number of people have also been sent out, but so far no news has come back.

"Mother, Ali doesn't want us?" 

Han Jue asked with a choked cry. Han Yiyi hugged the child in her arms tightly and did not answer, but her eyes were full of tears.

She didn't know,

she didn't know anything ,

but Han Yiyi knew very well in her heart that she was not a good mother, it was she who killed her own children. It was her indecision and her cowardice that made Ah Li so decisively choose to leave her.

Is it really wrong?

Ye Qingchen is now full of guilt. 

He is really not a good husband and father.

The antidote left by Ah Li has been taken by Yin Zhi, and Yin Zhi is fine. And he and Yiyi lost their daughter forever. 

will Yiyi forgive him?

Will it be possible to come back to him again?

There is no answer.
