After raising a cub, I won by doing nothing

Chapter 682 If You Want to Hit Me, Hit Me

Mu Wanxi held Mu Xiaoqi in one hand and touched his waist with the other hand, and found that his purse was really missing!

When she turned around, she saw a half-grown child holding his purse and rushing out through the crowd. Mu Wanxi had never thought that a thief would dare to target her!
"Tangyuan, take good care of them. I'll be back soon." After handing Mu Xiaoqi to Tangyuan, Mu Wanxi quickened his pace and ran forward like flying. He quickly passed through the crowd and in an empty space, he grabbed the child by the collar of his clothes and lifted him up from the ground.

"Let me go!" The child struggled hard, scratching and making a fuss.

Mu Wanxi snorted softly, raised her hand and pressed an acupoint on the little boy.

Suddenly, the little boy couldn't move, his limbs were powerless, and only his eyes and mouth could move. He was held in Mu Wanxi's hand like a little chicken, and asked in panic, "What did you do to me?!"

"I just want you to be obedient." Mu Wanxi said, and looked at the little beggar carefully.

He was wearing very tattered clothes, with countless patches on the coarse linen clothes, which were dusty and looked like he hadn't taken a bath for at least a month or two. His arms and legs were skinny and bony, with wounds and bruises all over his body. His hair was dry and looked like yellow straw. It was obvious that he was a poor child who had been malnourished for years and had not had enough food or clothes to wear.

"Why did you steal my purse?" Mu Wanxi saw that the child was about the same age as her own child, and couldn't understand why such a young child would do such a sneaky thing.

"It's none of your business!" The little beggar stiffened his neck, raised his head and shouted, "If you want to hit me, go ahead. I'm not afraid of you!"

Seeing the little beggar staring at him with eyes wide open, his eyes were clearly full of fear, but his face was stubborn, Mu Wanxi became somewhat interested in him. This child's face did not show that he was a vicious person, but rather a person of wealth and honor. He just had a few great disasters when he was young, but as long as he could get through them, he would be smooth sailing in the future.

Smelling the scent of herbs on the little beggar, Mu Wanxi narrowed her eyes and said, "I won't beat you, nor will I ask others to teach you a lesson. But if you don't tell me the truth, I will send you to the government, and then I will put you in jail for two or three months to teach you a lesson."

"No...!" The little beggar who was not afraid of being beaten suddenly panicked, "I was wrong, I will return the purse to you, you can beat me and scold me, but please don't send me to the government, I can't be locked up."

"Why?" Mu Wanxi asked. Seeing that the little beggar lowered his head and refused to answer, he grabbed him and walked towards the yamen.

“I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you!” The little beggar’s eyes turned red, and tears rolled down his cheeks. “My sister is sick, and the doctor said it would cost twenty taels of silver to cure her. I, I don’t have that much money, so I can only steal. I don’t want this to happen. Before my parents died, they told me not to do bad things, but I can’t watch my sister die of illness, wuwuwu…”

At the end of his speech, the little beggar choked and cried.

Seeing this, Mu Wanxi pursed her lips and untied the little beggar's acupuncture points, and asked, "Then do you want to bring your sister to my house? I will treat your sister and pay you."

The little beggar was stunned. He looked up at Mu Wanxi and realized that the person standing in front of him was an extremely beautiful woman. "Big sister, who are you?"
