After the vicious adoptive mother gave up, the scumbag children regretted it

Ma Jiacai was so scared that he jumped on Uncle Niu, hugged him tightly and trembled. Shen Nanzhi watched with amusement and speechlessness.

"Didn't you say that everyone in the house died? What are you afraid of?"

Ma Jiacai: “…”

Uncle Niu said, "This house can't be sold, let's go."

"No, don't miss such a good opportunity to find a bargain. I don't believe there are ghosts in broad daylight. Let's go and take a look."

The two grown men came back to their senses and said, "Yes, it's broad daylight, not night. What are you afraid of?"

Shen Nanzhi thought that this was probably a person, or perhaps someone's child who had run away. He shouldn't be scared away by a little cry.

Two grown men followed. Shen Nanzhi followed the sound of crying and arrived at the backyard, which was overgrown with weeds that were almost knee-high. Suddenly, something ran past in the grass, which made it even more bizarre.

The grass swayed with a whoosh sound, and Ma Jia suppressed a scream and said, "Look, there's something there. Let's go, or it will eat us all."

Shen Nanzhi: "Didn't you say that I am a righteous person and that even ghosts and gods cannot get close to me? Don't worry, if something really happens, I will be the first one to block it."

Shen Nanzhi was not sure either. What if it was a small animal?

He continued walking firmly step by step. The grass shook more violently, but Shen Nanzhi was not afraid at all. Instead, those things became more frightened and trembled.

"What is that? You're playing tricks on me, come out!"

Shen Nanzhi asked coldly. There was silence in the bush for a while, and then something gradually came out. Shen Nanzhi was stunned and speechless.

There were actually seven or eight children. One of them looked familiar. He was the little beggar she had seen in the restaurant. He was about five or six years old, and he stared at her with a pair of eyes full of vicissitudes.

It is difficult to see such complex emotions in a child's eyes. This child must have suffered a lot, which is inconsistent with his tender body.

There was a tiny girl behind him, the smallest of whom could only crawl, drooling and crying loudly.

Shen Nanzhi sighed, looked up at the sky, and suppressed the bitterness in his heart. He had seen many peaceful and prosperous times, so seeing such a miserable child, he felt indescribably sad.

"You, what are you going to do?"

The oldest beggar asked, as vigilant as a wolf cub, this was the shelter they had found with great difficulty, could they not live there anymore?

Uncle Niu also had an ugly expression on his face. They turned out to be a group of homeless children. He subconsciously glanced at Shen Nanzhi.

Shen Nanzhi found a step and sat down, looking at the child equally, "What's your name?"

"I forgot, everyone calls me San Gouzi."

"What's wrong with these kids?"

San Gouzi said, "We used to be with another group of beggars. We could always survive by begging, but they forced us to steal. I knew stealing was wrong, so I didn't want to steal, so they kicked us out."

"I see. What about this little baby?"

"I found her at the back door. She was thrown out of a carriage. She was not that big at that time and could not crawl. She was very fat. Later, she had no food and became thin due to hunger."

Ma Jiacai couldn't help but wipe his eyes. These children were so pitiful.

Uncle Niu wanted to say something, but he didn't say it in the end and just sighed silently.

Even if Nan Zhi didn't care, no one would say anything to her. After all, the child she adopted once hurt her.

Shen Nanzhi didn't care what they were thinking and said, "I'm going to buy this house."

San Gouzi lowered his head, looking depressed. Was he going to find a new place to live?

She raised her head again and said, "Can you keep the little girl? She is too young, she can't beg or walk. When the weather is cold, we don't have clothes for her to wear. She will freeze to death. Sister, I saw a three-year-old child freeze to death last year, and she was still smiling. I don't want the little girl to be like that."

Ma Jiacai's tears flowed even more violently. He couldn't help wanting to keep the child, but unfortunately he hadn't arranged a marriage yet. Which girl would be willing to marry him if he had a child?

Shen Nanzhi shook her head: "I don't want to help others raise children."

San Gouzi was disappointed and clenched his fists, but he did not blame Shen Nanzhi because it was not her responsibility.

"Well, let's go."

"Listen to what I have to say. Since you have taken them in and are raising them yourself, you and the children can continue to live here, but..."

Shen Nanzhi continued, "But you have to work hard. If nothing else, I promise to keep you well fed and warm, and you won't die."

"really?"

For San Gouzi, this was really great news. He smiled so hard that his mouth corners stretched wide, revealing his missing gums.

Shen Nanzhi deliberately kept a stern face, making herself look awkward, "Don't laugh, it's so ugly. I'll give you some money, use it to buy some buns and fill your stomach first."

"Just eat steamed buns, no need to eat dumplings."

"The buns are dry, the girl will choke. I told you to buy buns, so go buy them. Why don't you listen?"

"Okay, I'll buy it."

Shen Nanzhi threw him a handful of copper coins, which could buy more than ten big meat buns.

I don't know when the little girl crawled to her feet, grinning, showing her four upper and lower teeth, like a rabbit.

"It's so ugly."

Shen Nanzhi was disgusted, but she didn't abandon him.

Instead, he found a candy from the space and stuffed it into her mouth while covering it with his sleeve.

The little girl ate the soft and sweet candy obediently, and she snuggled up to her side quietly, so well-behaved that it made people feel distressed.

"Agent Ma, tell me, how much can this house be sold for? Tell me the real price, don't try to cheat me."

The word "broker" has existed since ancient times. It is a respectful title for practitioners in the brokerage industry.

"Girl, you are kind-hearted. I won't keep you in suspense. The lowest price you can ask is three hundred taels. This is the government's reserve price. It can't be any less."

It was two hundred taels less, which was really cheap. Shen Nanzhi did not continue to bargain. "This is three hundred taels, Uncle Niu, you can go with him to transfer the property. This is fifty taels, which is used to pay taxes and hire some workers to repair the house tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll go right away, you go home by yourself, don't stay too long."

"Yes, I know, don't worry, Uncle Niu."

Shen Nanzhi saw the little girl finish the candy and look at her eagerly. She was not afraid of the gloomy face, but grinned. She couldn't bear it in her heart, so she told the children: "Go pull weeds and eat buns later."

After sending them away, he took out a bowl of milk from the space, added some sugar, and fed it to the girl.

After drinking a bowl of milk, the girl showed a satisfied smile and fell asleep while hugging Shen Nanzhi.

"Little boy, you know who has milk to drink, so you will cling to that person."

Then he took out a small blanket and covered her with it, saying that it would be bad if she caught a cold and had a stomachache.

She didn't know that a pair of eyes in the distance showed horror. Is she a fairy? She can actually conjure things, but this fairy is a little fat.

It turned out to be San Gouzi. He suppressed his good mood, deliberately stomped his feet and ran back, holding a bag of meat buns, "I'm back."
