There was a pound of fresh meat and a small bag of sugar in the bundle.
The sugar was prepared for Yueyue.
In addition, there was a school uniform that she had worn for three years. It was washed very clean, and several worn places were mended with delicate Array Eyes, which could not be seen at first glance. In fact, the Fengming Academy would send students uniforms twice a year, but Lei Yinyin exchanged the uniforms for silver to subsidize her family. She had a school uniform for three years.
Her mother died a year ago, and the funeral cost a lot of money.
Now, the brother, sister, sister-in-law, and a three-year-old little boy depended on each other.
The elder brother, Tiger Lei, was an honest man. He had no skills and could only work hard. Lei Yinyin was a senior student of the Fengming Academy, and the elder brother and sister-in-law were also kind people. Therefore, the family was quite popular in this block.
Although the life was hard, it was much better than before, and the family was very satisfied.
Lei Yinyin's dream was to join an escort agency or a chamber of commerce after graduation. It was relatively easy for the graduates of Fengming Academy to find a job in Chang 'an City. The old dean also took good care of the graduates of each session.
However …
She lowered her head and stayed alone in the room for a moment.
Unconsciously, she could not help but feel sad, and her tears almost flowed out.
She never felt that she was weak.
She felt that she could always muster the courage to fight against any power and injustice.
Everything in this courtyard, everything in this family, and everything in Fengming Academy were cherished and protected by her. However, when the cruelty of life and the coldness of power attacked her, she realized what kind of sacrifice was needed to protect all these, which was more terrible than death.
She sighed again.
The number of sighs today was more than that of a year before.
Lei Yinyin tried to calm down, began to clean up the pots and bowls, and began to cook.
Her culinary skills were also very good.
Children from poor families all took charge of the household early.
About a quarter of an hour later, when Tiger Lei came back from work, the smell of meat permeated the kitchen. Little Yueyue drooled and stood at the door of the kitchen, looking at it eagerly. Behind him stood the big yellow dog and two little puppies …
They set the bowls and chopsticks and sat down.
Poor people didn't care so much.
The big yellow dog was lying on the edge of the dining table, chewing the bone loudly.
After dinner, Lei Yinyin wanted to clean up the dishes. Her brother, Tiger Lei, held his son and pulled her. He said with a smile, "Sister, you are 16 years old this year. Do you have a favorite family? I and your sister-in-law have saved some money and prepared a dowry for you."
Lei Yinyin pouted and said, "Brother, I'm still young …"
"Next door, Old Wang's family, fifteen year old Niu Niu, her son is already one year old." Tiger Lei said naively, "If our family wasn't too poor and I didn't marry my wife late, maybe Yueyue would be seven or eight years old now, haha."
Lei Yinyin was very tired of the usual nagging, but today, it was very warm for her.
She deliberately laughed and said, "Brother, didn't I say it before? My sweetheart must be like Young Master Li Mu, a young man with excellent literary talent and matchless martial arts. Do you know such a person? If you know him, then introduce him to me. I'm willing to marry him. "
"Sister, you fool. I'm afraid your brain is damaged. Young Master Li Mu is an immortal from heaven. You must be daydreaming." Tiger Lei burst into laughter and unceremoniously exposed the girl's unrealistic fantasy.
Lei Yinyin said, "Humph, I know Young Master Li."
The family was talking and laughing.
Tiger Lei looked at his young sister and felt a little guilty.
All these years, the main reason why the family was able to survive was because of his sister. As the elder brother, he was more like a burden. Apart from his stupid strength, he didn't have any other specialties. All these years, if it wasn't for the fact that his sister was more like the head of the family, managing everything inside and out like a pillar, he wouldn't have been able to survive.
Of course, he hoped that his sister could find a good family.
In Tiger Lei's eyes, his sister was the best, the most beautiful, the most beautiful, the kindest, and the best girl in the world.
However, Young Master Li Mu … was a legend.
It was difficult for his sister to find such a person, wasn't it?
After a while, Lei Yinyin and her sister-in-law took the bowls and chopsticks to wash.
Tiger Lei took out five coins from his pocket and lined them up in his palm.
This was his pay for unloading the goods today. He picked out three copper coins from the pile and put it back in his pocket. This was to be given to his wife to support the family. As for the remaining two copper coins, he put it in a wooden box next to the bed.
He gently shook the wooden box, heard the heavy sound coming from inside, and then weighed the wooden box. The simple and honest young man showed a satisfied smile on his face.
There were about 100 coins in the box.
He saved it for a year.
When he saved 200 coins, it was enough to make a new silk dress, and he would give it to his sister as her dowry.
He must let his sister get married in new clothes.
That was the most simple wish of the young man.
It was also something he could do.
After a while, Lei Yinyin's voice came from outside, "Brother, I'm going back to the academy … I have classes in the evening."
…
…
It was getting dark.
Thousands of meters up in the sky, the Samsara Knife flew like a bolt of lightning and broke the sound barrier. In the dark sky, it left a long crack that did not heal for a long time.
"The knife is wide and thick, so it's stable to stand."
Li Mu stood on the knife, as if he was skateboarding, and opened his arms to maintain his own balance.
Flying on the knife.
It was a cool thing.
He finally realized it.
The Samsara Knife was engraved with several kinds of Taoist magic arts and tactical deployments. When it was activated, its speed was comparable to that of the Flying Eagle Sword a few days ago, but it was more stable. At the top of the oblique knife tip, a dot of starlight flashed, and an arc-shaped cyan wind shield opened, blocking all the strong wind caused by the high-speed flight.
For Li Mu, some of his ideas were preliminarily realized.
Flying on the Samsara Knife, on the basis of maintaining the speed, was more stable. At least, there would be no "flying accident" like that day, and he didn't need to worry about falling from the sky thousands of meters high because of a mistake.
Flying was the eternal dream of human beings on Earth.
Li Mu was no exception.
He controlled the Samsara Knife to make all kinds of swoops, changes directions, accelerates, decelerates, and so on in the high sky. Like a child who had just learned to skate, he shouted excitedly.
With his current Natural Qi cultivation, he could maintain flying on the knife for 30 minutes with the help of the Samsara Knife.
For the speed of breaking the sound barrier, 30 minutes was enough to cover a distance of more than 600 kilometers, which was much faster than the high-speed rail on Earth. This would be one of Li Mu's trump cards — if he couldn't win, he could run away. This saying could be fully realized after Li Mu mastered flying on the knife.
In this world, even the experts in the Celestial Being Realm couldn't do that.
As time went by, Li Mu became more and more skillful in practicing.
His natural qi was about to run out. Li Mu swooped down from the barren mountain and dense forest in the west district, landed, and then adjusted his breathing. When it was completely dark, he went to the military cemetery, activated the Leaping Dragon Deployment, and continued to absorb the qi of the Earthveins.
General Flame and the other dead generals almost turned green.
At the same time, Lei Yinyin came to the entrance of the Pig-Herding Alley.
She was originally going to return to school, but for some reason, she ended up here while walking.
In her mind, this was the place where the most outstanding people of her age lived.
Since the battle in the Heaven Sword Martial Club, no, maybe even from the first time she heard about Li Mu's deeds, Lei Yinyin began to worship this young man. Li Mu's decisiveness to run away from home, his stubbornness after three strikes, and his return eight years later became a legend.
On that day, when she met him in the Heaven Sword Martial Club, Lei Yinyin really became Li Mu's die-hard fan.
The day before yesterday, Li Mu appeared at the gate of the Fengming Academy and killed He Yunxiang and others, which made her go further and further on the road of worshiping this person.
In Lei Yinyin's mind, the deeds of Li Mu and her were almost a kind of spiritual belief.
What she yearned for but couldn't realize was realized by Li Mu.
She came to the gate of the Shack more than once and looked at the courtyard covered with clouds and mist, which seemed to be a fairyland. It was close in front of her, but far away.
But this time, she was here to say goodbye.
She didn't walk into the Pig-Herding Alley, because she didn't come to ask for help from Li Mu.
The weight of the Red-hair Killing Invitation was too heavy. At present, Li Mu might not be able to solve it.
Moreover, Lei Yinyin didn't think that Li Mu was obliged to solve such a difficult problem for her.
She hoped that Li Mu's legend could be continued.
She didn't want his persistence to become vulnerable and stop abruptly in the face of a sudden disaster.
Looking at the courtyard of the Shack from a distance, Lei Yinyin showed a smile.
Then, she turned around and went inside.
After returning to the Fengming Academy, she went to see Dean Qu, who was seriously injured.
"Child, go away. Leave Chang 'an City and go as far as you can. I'll find an old friend to secretly send you out of the city," said Dean Qu.
Lei Yinyin shook her head and said, "If I leave, the Academy will be finished. This is the holy land for the poor young people in Chang 'an City to change their fate. I can't see it destroyed. And my family, my friends … Dean, you once encouraged us. If fate shows cruelty to us, the only way is to face it. If I'm really a natural top-grade stove as the Red-hair Killing Invitation said, I want to see what kind of road fate has arranged for me."
Dean Qu sighed.
Lei Yinyin was a student cultivated by him, just like his daughter.
He was distressed.
"Dean, after I leave, please take care of my brother and sister-in-law secretly." Lei Yinyin still cared about her family.
Dean Qu nodded.
