Queen of flowers - chapter 170
“You’re welcome.” Feng Liao asked Ah Lan very gently, “What’s your last name? What other family members do you have?”
“Min Nu* (My) surname is Ma, and I live in Majia Village, Zaojiapu, Wulin County,” her voice was a little trembling, but she could answer the questions fairly well.
Then she began to wipe her tears again, “Min Nu had a bitter life. I had no father since I was a child. I grew up with my mother and grandmother. Min Nu’s grandmother died two years ago, and now that the mother is gone, I’m left alone in this world. I am alone … “
“Do you have any relatives?”
“Min Nu had another uncle, who lives in Xiushan County. But … Mother and Uncle have never been close to each other since I was a kid. I had never met my uncle. I don’t even know if he would recognize me.”
When Ah Lan spoke, she humbly claimed to be the “Min Nu (woman from an ordinary family)” for a while, and seemed to forget humility after that by using “I” very smoothly.
She was like the ordinary civilian girl who wasn’t taught etiquette, and suddenly talked to a nobleman.
“Did you and your mother come out of the village to go to Xiushan County to find her family?”
Ah Lan nodded. Her expression was a little hesitant and dazed, “My mother said if it was really impossible to survive, she wouldn’t take me to look for him. Now that my mother is gone, I don’t know anyone. “
Feng Liao was silent, turned to look at Yong Ruo, and asked with lip movement: What should I do?
Yong Ruo looked at him with a smile and replied: You decide.
Feng Liao thought for a while, then turned to ask Ah Lan, “What are your plans for the future?”
“I …” Ah Lan hesitated, and tears fell again, “Min Nu want to take mother home and bury her in the ancestor’s grave …”
She hesitated a few times and cried again, saying, “Mother often said that she and father were close to each other, and she had been widowed for a few years. Now that mother went to father, I, as her daughter, must take her body home and bury her next to my father. Since their fate in this world wasn’t long, let them continue to be husband and wife in the underworld! Waah …”
She spoke in tears. Then fell to the ground and wept again.
Her remarks deeply touched the softest part of Feng Liao’s heart.
His face showed a very clear compassion. He patiently waited for her to stop crying before he asked softly, “How is the drought in your village?”
“It was terrifying!” Ah Lan wiped her tears off her dirty sleeves, “This year, there wasn’t much harvest. Many people’s seedlings died out. Farming had no hope at all.”
“The well water in the village is also dried. If we want to drink water, we have to go back to the cave far away.”
“Today, many people had left home. Others had no hope in farms, but had no patience and courage to escape. They were already living, eating the bark of the grass roots. It’s getting difficult day after day!”
Feng Liao groaned and asked about the location of Majia Village.
The village wasn’t far from there, and the transportation was convenient.
More than 200 years ago, when the Kings of various places seized the world, Emperor Lu cut many large trees from the nearby hills in order to repair the palace.
In order to transport the wood, Emperor Lu repaired the Lumu Road, making it accessible for two carriages.
Later, the Lumu Road had been used by local people and timber merchants. So the government and business people had been repairing it.
Therefore the Lumu Road was still good for vehicles, but unlike the original, two carriages could be ridden in parallel.
Lumu Road wasn’t far from Majia Village.
Stopping the carriage in a small hillside beside that road, and then walking or riding over mountain beams, one could reach Majia Village.
