    Four years ago, winter.

    Bang!

    Half a basin of hot water that had just been heated was knocked to the ground along with the basin.

    Meng Yunxian covered her hand that was burned by the splash and stepped back, looking at her mother with fear in her eyes.

    On the bed, Mrs. Zheng supported her body with one hand and pointed at her with one hand: "Get out!"

    Meng Yunxian bit her lip, held back her tears and knelt down: "Don't be upset, mother. I shouldn't have asked my mother to buy candy for me. I asked thieves to steal the silver for the winter in the busy market. You are still sick. People are more important than money.  Can you recuperate first? I will never eat sweets againnever again."

    Instead of being comforted, Mrs. Zheng lifted the quilt and walked over barefoot on the muddy ground. She grabbed her by the collar and threw her towards the bedside, "Kneel down!"

    Meng Yunxian was so thin that she was easily pushed to the ground. Her knees went deep into the muddy water, which instantly turned ice cold.

    "Am I too protective of you, so you don't know how hard it is to make money? I get up early every day, travel long distances to collect herbs, sell them, write letters on behalf of others, and do all the work that can make money.  ! I almost died on the road just to earn food and clothing for you, an evil beast like you, do you know?"

    Meng Yunxian kept crying: "I know, I know."

    "Why do you have the face to cry!" Mrs. Zheng hit her: "You don't understand the hardships, you don't understand the hard-earned food, rice, oil and salt. How easy it is to say 'people are more important than money'. Is that the money you earned back?  The people in the Hou Mansion pretend to be tolerant and generous, but they do all kinds of bad things behind their backs. You are the same as them! Without this money, you can't even survive. How dare you say that others are better than money?  It¡¯s important, bastard¡­ bastard!¡±

    Mrs. Zheng was furious and hit her on the back while scolding her.

    But she was too ill and had no strength at all. In the end, she could only fall to the ground and cry with Meng Yunxian. She cried and laughed again with tears in her eyes: "It's unfair for God to take away my love and give me such a thing."  A lot of torture. But I won¡¯t be afraid, I won¡¯t just give in! Hahahahaha"

    She smiled so brightly that Meng Yunxian supported her worriedly: "Mom"

    Mrs. Zheng looked at Meng Yunxian coldly, and suddenly pinched her chin: "How could I forget, my dear Xian'er, I still have you."

    "They will regret it they will regret it"

    Meng Yunxian was still too young, and her mother was sick. She couldn't understand a word of these gibbering words. Mrs. Zheng fainted from illness while talking. Meng Yunxian used all her strength to drag her to the bed again.

    The north wind was howling outside, so she closed the doors and windows with her feet and went back to boiling hot water.

    As the New Year is approaching, people in the village are busy using the money earned during the year to buy new clothes and winter supplies. The happiest day for the children in the village is to get up early in the morning and go to the market with their parents.

    ¡°If it wasn¡¯t because she wanted to buy candy, my mother wouldn¡¯t have lost that important five taels of silver.

    Walking out of the house, Meng Yunxian was shrunk by the cold wind outside. Suddenly, her eyes lit up and she saw a copper plate falling not far away.

    Someone was walking towards this side. It was a villager returning with a child.

    Meng Yunxian's first reaction was to rush forward and step on the copper plate without moving, her heart beating like a drum.

    The children followed their parents, much more restrained than usual, but when they passed by Meng Yunxian, they pushed her when their parents were not prepared.

    "The strange thing is that usually this little bastard is very easy to bully and will fall down when pushed. Today, he stood up straight and didn't move at all. The child walked away unconvinced and turned around to make a face at Meng Yunxian.

    After making sure no one saw it, Meng Yunxian bent down to pick up the copper plate under her feet, protecting it in her hand like a treasure, and ran home with a guilty conscience, so she didn't notice the figure not far away who had been looking at her for a long time.

    A copper plate cannot solve the urgent need of five taels of silver.

    Meng Yunxian returned home, picked out some of the medicinal materials her mother had divided and boiled medicine for her.

    Fortunately, my mother understands medicine, and there is no need to spend money on the spring water. As long as my mother drinks medicine on time and no longer suffers from colds and injuries, she should get better soon.

    She prepared enough hot water, wiped her mother's body and changed her clothes. When she was tired and fell asleep, she just wrapped her coat and leaned against the bed to sleep.

    The next day, she woke up before dawn, washed herself up, and then went to make steamed buns.

    When Ms. Zheng woke up, she was holding the medicine and was too scared to come near: "Mother I, I boiled the herbs you picked privately. I know you worked hard to pick the herbs, so just drink this."p; Zhou Ke didn't give her time to hesitate. He stepped forward and hugged her body from behind. He grabbed her hand and stretched it into the frying pan: "What's wrong? Are you afraid too? It's not okay to show your timidity when you reach out."  "

    "What's there to be afraid of? Aren't you going to starve to death? Compared to death, what's one hand? Stretch it out!"

    Meng Yunxian was scared out of her mind. She desperately retracted her hand, turned to face him in Zhou Ke's arms, stretched out her arms to hug him tightly, and hid her hands behind his back, as if he could not reach her.

    The thin girl was trembling all over, her voice was hoarse from crying, and Zhou Ke felt heavy from crying.

    The hand that had grabbed her and put it into the oil pan a moment ago turned to caress the back of her head, and the harshness turned into a whisper: "Wipe your tears, and I will take you to a place."

    Meng Yunxian didn't move and didn't dare to move.

    After a moment of silence, he said: "If you stay here, continue to stretch the oil pan."

    Meng Yunxian followed him honestly.

    Zhou Ke took her to a execution platform in the market.

    The execution platform was set up by the government. In order to maintain public security in the county, city bailiffs would be set up on weekdays. If anyone found violating the law and discipline on the street, they would be immediately arrested and tortured in public.

    As the New Year is approaching, the government has doubled the number of city bailiffs to catch pickpockets. Although there are still pickpockets in the market, without the city bailiffs, the market will only be more chaotic.

    At this moment, a pickpocket who was caught was tied up on the execution platform. According to the law, the city bailiff whipped him thirty times and imprisoned him for half a month.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
