She first said hello to Father He, and then went back to her guest room next door to freshen up.

He's mother followed over, closed the doors and windows, and helped He Lian'er wash her long, silky hair.

The girl's beautiful body bloomed like a lotus in a pool of clear water, and her hair spread like a waterfall in the water. The water vapor in the room was steaming, and the faint fragrance of flowers filled the water.

Although the yard of her hometown was burned down and she now has no fixed place to live, the girl's mood is still optimistic and bright.

She poured a handful of water onto her arm, which was as smooth as a lotus root. She watched the crystal clear water drops rolling down, and the corners of her lips curved in pleasure.

He's mother was washing her daughter's hair with her hands, her eyes always paying attention to her daughter's smiling face. She knew her daughter Mo Ruomu. Maybe He Lian'er was still young and didn't really understand some things, but He's mother, as a person who had experienced it, could see through it at a glance and knew it in her heart.

Be aware.

She couldn't explain how she felt. She had high expectations for her daughter and was worried that she would be disappointed. It was a mixture of joy and sorrow, and it was very complicated.

But for some things, it seems a bit too early to wake up my daughter now.

Then, let's wait. At least we have to get through this difficulty first and the family can settle down.

When He Lian'er finished taking a bath, she suddenly realized a very serious problem.

That is, when they escaped, they could not take anything else with them, including a change of clothes, except for the last bit of money they had left at home.

"... If it doesn't work out, I'd better put on those dirty clothes again. We'll be fine when we get to Qing'an County tomorrow and the day after tomorrow..." He Lian'er said, wrapping herself in a big bath towel and getting up from the water.

Mother He sighed softly, "Hey, this is the only way..."

Before he finished speaking, there was a gentle knock on the door of the room.

The mother and daughter in the room suddenly became nervous. Mother He dared to ask: "Which one?"

"Guest, I am the waiter at the inn. The guest who came with you earlier sent a young man to bring a change of clothes for you two."

A change of clothes?

He's mother and He Lian'er looked at each other.

The tension in He Lian'er's eyes faded away, and surprise overflowed little by little.

"Put it at the door. I'll go and pick it up later." He's mother hurriedly said outside the house.

Listening to the sound of footsteps walking away from the house, Mother He carefully opened a crack in the door and took a look outside. Then she quickly grabbed a bundle rolled at the door and returned to the house.

…

"Mom, this dress fits me just right. It looks like it was cut according to my body."

He Lian'er put on clean clothes, stood in front of the bed and turned around, pulling at the hem of her clothes and saying excitedly.

Mother He was also looking at He Lian'er. She wore a light pink top and a sky-blue skirt, and wore a small green bikini and a belt to tie her waist. Not only did she look refreshing, but she also felt warm and comfortable to wear.

"I never thought that Xiao An, a boy, has such a good eye for choosing clothes. This dress, Lian'er, looks really good on you."

"Hee hee." He Lian'er was so happy that she pursed her lips and smiled. Her face was rosy, her eyes were watery, and her whole body was as beautiful as a peach blossom in March.

Mother He rubbed He Lian'er's hair, looked at her daughter as if she were admiring a piece of art that had been treasured for many years, and murmured: "My Lian'er is the most beautiful, no matter what clothes she wears."

"Mom, don't talk too much about me now. Your clothes are also very beautiful. They are generous and decent, and they fit very well!" He Lian'er gently stroked He's mother's shoulder. The material of the clothes felt good and very good.

Friendly ironing.

Obviously, Brother Xiaoan put a lot of thought into buying these clothes.

He wants me to dress like this, and he also thinks I look good dressed like this, right?

If this is the attitude I should have in his eyes, then from now on I will work hard to do this to cater to his likes and make him happy to see me.

When he is happy, I can also be happy.

When He Lian'er and He's mother arrived at Father He's room next door feeling refreshed, the waiter had already come over to ask for permission to deliver food.

He Lian'er thought for a moment and said to the waiter: "If it's a little later, we won't all be here..."

"I'm back, let the guys prepare the food!"

Xiao An's voice suddenly sounded from behind. He Lian'er turned her head in surprise and saw him coming up from the stairs.

His body was covered with dust and the sweat on his body made his temples and clothes wet again.

Doesn't this look like a visit to the Bao Zhang's house? It's almost as if he was chased for eighteen streets and had a fight with a bunch of people.

Could it be that brother Xiao An is in trouble?

Thinking of this, He Lian'er's beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly.

When the waiter went down to prepare the meal, He Lian'er quickly opened the door to let Xiao An enter the room, and then closed the door again.

Beside the bed, He's mother was feeding He's father water, and the atmosphere in the room was relatively relaxed.

But when he saw the solemn look on Xiao An's face, He's father waved his hand to signal He's mother not to give him water yet, and his concerned eyes fell on Xiao An's face: "What's going on? Is the Wang family coming after me?"

Mother He's hand holding the tea bowl couldn't help but tremble slightly.

He Lian'er, who was guarding the door, subconsciously tightened the hem of her clothes.

Xiao An glanced at the people in the room, considered the words, and said to them in a calm tone: "Don't panic, everyone. The Wang family probably hasn't chased them to Qingniu Town yet, but their actions are better than we imagined.

It’s much faster, and the force used exceeds our previous guesses.”

Father He struggled to sit up, his eyes became serious, "What do you say?"

Just as Xiao An was about to speak, there were footsteps outside the house. It was the waiter who had brought food.

"Just put it at the door." He Lian'er said quickly.

After the waiter left, He Lian'er quickly brought the food into the house and closed the door tightly again.

The food is very rich, including chicken, duck, fish, meat and vegetables. The white rice is evenly sprinkled with a few black sesame seeds, which is particularly tempting.

If it hadn't been for the bad news that Xiao An brought back, the four of them would be sitting around the table happily enjoying the food.

But at this moment, although the four of them were all hungry, no one had the intention to look at the food.

"Xiao An, what's going on? Tell your uncle, tell me from the beginning." Father He asked.

Mother He was so nervous that she swallowed her saliva and tried hard not to scare them by standing there because her legs and feet were weak and paralyzed.

Xiao An nodded and spoke in a deep voice about the whole story:

"I originally planned to go to the security chief of Qingniu Town, reveal my identity to him and explain the whole story to ask for help, but as soon as I walked past the corner of the market entrance in front, I saw an official from the Yamen going there.

That poster."

"I went over and took a look. The article on the list was about apprehending fugitives, and there was a portrait of the fugitive attached next to it..."

"Could it be my father?" He Lian'er asked in surprise.

The three people beside the bed all looked at her.

Facing her frightened eyes, Xiao An nodded slightly.
