Chapter 1252: Meet You Again When Flowers Fall (Extra 1)
The bond in this life has a reason (I)
Six-year-old Huo Xiaoye has been begging for half a month. His father was seriously injured half a month ago and died the next day after being carried home.
His mother only told Huo Xiaoye to wait at home for someone to pick him up.
He hanged himself at night.
Huo Xiaoye lost his parents overnight.
There was food at home and a small amount of money left by his mother, so Huo Xiaoye should have no problem living here alone for a short period of time.
but
"Is this the unlucky person who brought misfortune to his parents?" Three days after his mother and father were buried, a few strange people appeared in his family.
Although Huo Xiaoye was precocious, he was still a six-year-old child after all. Especially when someone said this to him, he became extremely angry.
However, before he could pounce on the other party and fight with them, he was pinned to the ground by those people.
First, they searched all the silver and money on him, and then forcibly handed his head to Huo Xiaoye, saying that this could atone for his sins.
Being young, Huo Xiaoye was no match for them, so he could only grit his teeth and endure, but these people didn't just want the money in his hands.
Seeing that Huo Xiaoye did not resist, the leader kicked him and threatened: "Hey! Go and tell us yourself that you don't want this house anymore and you are willing to transfer it to us."
Huo Xiaoye's father was a military household, and this house was originally allocated to him. Since it was free to live in, even though Huo's father became rich later, he never thought about getting the title deed for the house.
This has left Huo Xiaoye with a big problem - Huo Xiaoye's mother is a good citizen, so he is not registered as a military household. Therefore, in principle, the house can now be redistributed.
But many people wouldn't really kick a child out.
The key point is that there were rumors that Huo Xiaoye's mother had a good status, so no one wanted to cause trouble for no reason.
But there were these few troublemakers who, seeing that no one came to pick up Huo Xiao from his ancestral home in the wild, started to set their sights on this house.
"Give me back the money, and I'll go talk to you!" Huo Xiaoye wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. "I can give you this house, but you have to pay me extra money."
The scoundrels laughed heartily upon hearing this: "Little bastard, you still think this is the time when your father is still alive! We are not afraid of a little brat like you. If you don't say anything, we have plenty of means and strength."
The final result was that Huo Xiaoye didn't take anything and was taken to the place where housing was allocated.
Knowing that he could not keep the house, Huo Xiaoye happily "handed over" it.
But he was not someone to be trifled with. When he saw these people moving into his original home at night, he set the house on fire in the middle of the night.
In addition, they took away their not-so-much money.
Although I don’t know whether the other person was burned to death, the house is uninhabitable anyway.
Huo Xiaoye boarded an ox cart in the town heading to another place, hoping to find a place to avoid the limelight.
Fortunately, the coachman and Huo Xiaoye knew each other, otherwise he might have sold the child.
After walking for several days, they finally got away from the original place, but Huo Xiaoye was almost out of money.
These days you have to pay to enter the city, so Huo Xiaoye can only squat by the city gate and beg for food.
A carriage passed by behind him and stopped after going some distance.
Soon, a girl who looked about eleven or twelve years old got off the carriage. She ran in front of Huo Xiaoye, squatted down, and looked at him for a long time. Almost getting tired of being stared at, the girl said, "Little brother, are you from the Xianbei tribe?"
Huo Xiaoye's parents both have Xianbei ancestry, so although he is also mixed-race, he can be seen with obvious Xianbei features. Because of this appearance, his face was dirty throughout the journey.
It’s conceivable that even in this situation, there are still people who can recognize me.
He looked at the girl warily.
Behind her were two young boys and girls wearing Taoist robes.
After seeing his expression, the young man quickly stepped forward and said gently: "Little brother, don't be afraid, we are not good people!"
"Brother!" The girl stomped her feet in anger at the boy's slip of the tongue, but she herself was not much better. "Little brother, don't worry, we really don't intend to treat you well!"
Huo Xiaoye could feel that these three people probably had no ill intentions, but what they said really sounded a bit speechless.
In the end, it was the girl who recognized her Xianbei features and explained helplessly: "Little brother, our two followers grew up in the Taoist temple. They have always seen more trees than people.
What they want to say is, we are not bad people, we just want to help you! They are actually mixed-blooded Xianbei people, but their genetic characteristics are not obvious.
