Wu Zhen searched for two days but couldn't find Pei Jiya. He couldn't help but think, could this sick cousin, maybe he died quietly in some corner, right?

But thinking of his ability, Wu Zhen felt that he would not die so easily, so he could only try various ways to find people with Mei Zhuyu, and slowly search for him from the place where he had an accident.

Pei Jiya, who was remembered by others, was currently in Xiangshui City, further south of Tangshui City.

Because of its close proximity to the inner canal, it is much more prosperous than Tangshui City. The city is distinctive and the streets are crisscrossed, especially the houses in the southeast of the city, with magnificent buildings and towering eaves connected in pieces, which is where wealthy people in the city gather.

There is a pottery house, the owner is a wealthy middle-aged businessman who is engaged in a silk and cloth business and is one of the most popular figures in Xiangshui City. In the Tao family's courtyard, pavilions and towers are scattered, and the servants are wearing silk and satin, with a rosy complexion, and they are obviously doing well.

However, there are also dilapidated places in this gorgeous house. There is a small courtyard in the northwest corner, far away from the main house and rarely visited. Compared with the exquisiteness and beauty of other places, the small courtyard is covered with weeds, with green tiles on the roof being broken and no one cares about it, and grass growing on the eaves, which is like a ghost house.

A bunch of weeds under the wall of the yard was rustling, and then a slender shadow emerged from the grass. This was a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl. She was holding a food box in her hand, her hair was messy, and her face and skirt were covered with dirt.

Turning around and pulling the weeds to cover the hole in the corner of the wall, the little girl hugged the food box and ran into the house like a little bird, with a happy smile on her face.

"Master, Master! I've found something delicious!" She lowered her voice and shouted softly, ran to the edge of the couch in one breath, knelt on the varnished foot, and poked a head with a blade of grass into the tent.

A lazy male voice rang out from the tent, "What delicious food is worth so happy."

The male voice is gentle and pleasant, with a little carelessness, and very nice. However, the owner of this voice is not a handsome man, but a white mouse lying on the soft grass pillow...

The white mouse turned over gracefully and looked at the little girl who had her head in. The little girl was so embarrassed that she was so pitiful, with a pale face and thin skin, with only a pair of bright eyes.

"It's pastry, sweet. Master, you said that you can definitely get delicious food when you go to the small Buddhist temple in the west room today. As expected, I got it, but no one noticed it. Master is so amazing!" The little girl who was sitting by the bed with a happy face was covered in dust. She looked more like a dirty little mouse than the pure white and spotless white mouse on the drafting pillow.

As she said, she carefully took out the food box she was holding, opened the lid, and came to the white mouse like a treasure, swallowing her saliva and saying, "Master, please eat it."

The white mouse then got up, glanced in the food box, picked up the smallest flower-shaped pastry, and ate it.

"It's too sweet, greasy." He said a little disgusted.

The little girl blinked and took a piece, held it in her hand and squinted her eyes and gnawed it, looking very satisfied, "It's so delicious, so sweet! When my mother was still there, she seemed to have eaten such sweet pastries for me."

Seeing her mouth keep gnawing a few pieces of cake, the white mouse said, "I'm thirsty, pour a glass of water."

The little girl immediately got up, ran to the low table on the side and poured a cup of clear water for the white mouse. The white mouse took a sip and waved her paws to say she didn't want it anymore. So the little girl didn't dislike it, picked it up and finished drinking it herself, and continued to eat the pastry happily, looking greedy and hungry.

A small ball of food was buried in his head, looking at the pitiful tightness.

The white rat - Pei Jiya, has been here for two months. He was seriously injured when he encountered something and almost died on the mountain road. Fortunately, he encountered the Tao family's carriage. With the honor of the current white rat, he was picked up by Tao Afu, the eldest lady of the Tao family, and brought here.

Tao Afu is the girl who is sitting by the bed and eating cakes. She looks only 12 or 30 years old, but she is actually almost 16. She looks so thin just because she is not full or warm in food all year round.

The Tao family was rich, and there was a reason why Tao Afu, the biological daughter of Tao Langjun, was like this. Tao Langjun used to be just a small businessman, married a farmer's daughter, and lived a poor life. However, later he didn't know what luck he had, and his business was getting better and better. After a few years, he became a rich man.

When this man lived a wealthy life, he began to dislike his original wife's vulgar and ugly wife and had a bad background. So he abandoned his wife and daughter, and married a beautiful lady from a down-and-out official family, and gave birth to three daughters in a row. The new wife and three daughters are the ones Tao Langjun's heart. Tao Langjun was annoyed when he saw it. In addition, her stepmother was not a kind-hearted person, so Tao Afu's biological mother died early, and the little pitiful father didn't love her has been living a miserable life.

Tao Langjun has never seen this daughter several times. Seeing her stupidity, she can't do anything. Compared to her three spoiled sisters, she looks dull and feels like a fool, so she doesn't care about her even more.

It was not until more than two months ago that Tao Langjun took his family back to his hometown to worship his ancestors, and barely remembered Tao Afu, the eldest daughter who was also in his family genealogy, and took her with her, so he taught Tao Afu to save Pei Jiya, who turned into a white mouse by chance.

With Pei Jiya's mental methods, it is not easy to coax a little girl to be obedient. He was seriously injured and could hardly move. Tao Afu was taking care of him. He said he was a monster, Tao Afu was convinced, and later he said that he was actually an immortal. Tao Afu believed it stupidly. Pei Jiya said that he wanted to teach her the "immortal art" that can eat and wear warmly. Tao Afu happily called his master. Under his guidance, he had been much better than before. Tao Afu admired this master even more and obeyed his words.

Pei Jiya was not in a hurry and just stayed in this broken yard to recuperate, not caring about what might happen to the Pei family outside because of their disappearance.

Every day, she took the little girl's pillow to recover from her injuries and ate some food and water she offered. Although she lived a poor life, Pei Jiya was in a good mood. Tao Afu, the little girl, was stunned by him, looked really interesting.

Tao Afu was thrown into this yard and could not go out casually because Tao Langjun didn't want her to go out to embarrass herself, and her stepmother didn't want to see her, so there was an old woman outside the yard saying that she was responsible for taking care of her, but in fact she was guarding her and not letting her go out. She was not dedicated and often forgot to deliver food to Tao Afu.

Afu was small and couldn't run out, so he almost starved to death. The next day Pei Jiya was picked up by her, she summoned a black-armored animal in front of Afu, drilled out of the soil, and dug a hole in the inconspicuous corner of the wall, which just happened to allow Afu to get out.

From that day on, when Afu was hungry again, he could get out of the hole to find food. She told Pei Jiya about the locations in the house. Pei Jiya told her when to find food and how to avoid people. Tao Afu obediently listened to what he said, but no one was discovered. After eating well during this period, he finally grew a little meat.

After eating a box of pastries, Ah Fu was instructed by her White Mouse Master to go to the yard to wash the quilt and bed tent. Without dragon liver and phoenix gall to eat, nor good wine and tea, Pei Jiya endured it, but the place where she lay was not clean, so he could not tolerate it.

Fortunately, although Miss Tao Afu was a little stunned and slow to react, she was very obedient and did whatever she wanted to do. She never asked why and refused. This very satisfying little girl washed her bed with her quilt and tent, and invited Master Bai Laoma to bask outside to bask in the sun.

Her arms were thin and she had no strength, so she couldn't twist the quilt, and she hanged it on the tree branch, dripping water down. Fortunately, the sun was hot today and she could dry it.

The white mouse felt comfortable in the sun, so she changed her face to dry it. After a while, she felt that it was too sunny, so she knocked on the pillow. Ah Fu, who was washing his hair, ran over with his hair with his maximum hair, moved his uncle to the cool shade, and ran back to continue washing his hair.

After Pei Jiya came here, Tao Afu was much cleaner because her white mouse master couldn't see dirty things.

She was washed clean, but the clothes she changed were worn. She had very few clothes, only one set of them fit, and it was the one that Tao Langjun took them back to her hometown to worship her ancestors to make up for the scene. Her other dresses were washed white and had many holes. If she hadn't been short and slow, she would probably not be able to wear these torn dresses now.

Afu didn't care much about this himself. As long as she could eat enough, she would be happy. After washing, she squatted in front of the white mouse, held her chin and asked him: "Master, are you more comfortable now?"

Pei Jiya previously told her that she was beaten back to her true form when fighting with someone and was seriously injured. She had to take good care of her for several years before she could turn back to her human form. Ah Fu didn't know that men were all big pigs who could deceive people. She believed in her master wholeheartedly, cared about his injuries every day, and treated him as her own father.

Pei Jiya's injury is actually healing. When he recovered some of his abilities a month ago, he drove all kinds of kids to find medicinal materials for him. The reason why he is still here is because he is willful.

He watched the lonely and helpless girl slowly believe in himself, laughing more and more every day, feeling that he seemed to have a poor little mouse. Seeing her living so rustling and tenaciously every day was much more interesting than going back to the Pei family to mess with her elders and sisters.
