Fu Xinren took the three cents and went to the street to buy some food.

He originally wanted to buy three big steamed buns to fill his stomach first.

But then he thought again, Mrs. Fu would be back soon and she must have some money, so he might as well be nicer to himself.

So Fu Xinren took the three cents and went to buy a meat bun.

This meat bun can be said to be a great luxury considering his current situation.

Meat buns are delicious, but one meat bun is definitely not as filling as three big steamed buns.

After eating such a meat bun, Fu Xinren felt as if he had not eaten anything, let alone feeling full. His stomach was still filled with unbearable hunger.

He wanted to eat another one.

But he has no money now.

Fu Xinren stood at the door of the steamed bun shop, staring at the people coming and going.

He saw a maid go to the bun shop and buy a tray of buns.

Maybe because she tripped at the door, the maid's hand shook and she lost her grip, and a bun fell out of the steamer.

The bun rolled on the ground for several times and finally stopped in front of Fu Xinren's feet.

Fu Xinren looked at the buns in front of him, swallowed his saliva, and was in a dilemma.

Should he pick up the meat bun or not?

Even though the bun fell to the ground, it was only covered with a little dust and could be eaten after blowing away.

But if that's the case, where is his dignity?

Fu Xinren hesitated. Fortunately, he was the only one who noticed the bun at this moment, otherwise he would not have any time to worry about it.

Finally, Fu Xinren hardened his heart, squatted down and reached out to pick up the meat bun on the ground.

He didn't blow on it and eat it directly, but took the bun and walked towards the maid.

"Girl, wait, your bun fell off."

It was also thanks to the fact that when Fu Xinren accompanied Old Lady Fu to wash her face just now, he also washed his face and tidied himself up, otherwise he would have looked so unbearable.

When the maid heard someone talking to her, she stopped and turned to look at Fu Xinren.

Seeing that this man, although he was down and out, had a refined temperament and spoke in a refined manner, Xiuhua, a maid who had been an old maid all her life, couldn't help but feel some favor towards Xinren.

Xiuhua was the head maidservant serving Zhao Yuanyang, the concubine of the Bu family.

She is ugly but has wishful thinking. In private, she is as arrogant and domineering as Zhao Yuanyang, and she is also very proud. In addition, Zhao Yuanyang does not have many capable people around him, so it is natural that Xiuhua stays with Zhao Yuanyang.

If she stayed for a few more years, she would really be promoted to a nanny.

Sometimes Xiuhua really admires her master Zhao Yuanyang. Even though Mr. Bu looks like an old man, she still loves him madly. This is also a skill.

She couldn't do it anyway.

Of course, the main reason why Xiuhua could stay safely with Zhao Yuanyang for so many years was not because of this, but because her appearance made Zhao Yuanyang feel at ease.

However, these realities do not mean that Xiuhua does not have a spring heart.

She also longs for love and longs for affection.

Looking at the respectable Fu Xinren, Xiuhua fell in love with him at first sight.

Looking at the dirty meat bun in Fu Xinren's hand, Xiuhua's brows couldn't help but frown.

But after seeing Fu Xinren's bony fingers, embroidery suddenly became pleasing to the eye.

So she spoke to Xinren in a friendly manner.

"It's okay. If it falls off, just throw it away."

Fu Xinren was overjoyed when he heard this.

Isn't this what he was looking forward to?

That’s great! Now I can have one more meat bun to eat. It’s so delicious.

"Okay." Although Fu Xinren was ecstatic inside, he looked extremely calm.

He blew on the bun, put it away and was about to leave.

He planned to find a deserted place, eat it slowly, and savor the flavor of the meat.

He was so anxious when he ate the first meat bun that he didn't even know what it tasted like.

When Xiuhua saw Fu Xinren was about to leave, she immediately became anxious.

"Young master stay."

While shouting, she chased after Fu Xinren with the tray of buns in her arms.

Fu Xinren turned around and looked at her in confusion.

At the same time, my heart was lifted.

Could it be that she changed her mind and came here to ask for buns?

Thinking of this, Fu Xinren hid the hand holding the bun behind his back.

"Miss, is there anything else?" Fu Xinren smiled gently.

The embroidery girl's heart was almost confused by the laughter.

She just felt like there was a little deer running around in her chest.

Is this what heartbeat feels like?

It seems that her spring has arrived.

Xiuhua carefully looked at Fu Xinren from head to toe again. Based on her many years of experience, she thought that this young man should be a scholar.

But judging from his current appearance, he must be in a state of decline.

Realizing this, Xiuhua felt secretly delighted.

What do you call this? This is called taking advantage of the opportunity!

No, that's not how the word is used.

But she only knew a few words and hadn't read many books, so she didn't know how to use the phrase "take advantage of an opportunity", so she left it at that.

Anyway, this means that now is the best time for her to win this young man.

She doesn't dare to mess with men who are too young. This kind of man who is neither old nor young is the most suitable for her.

Thinking of this, Xiuhua curled the corners of her mouth proudly, then asked Fu Xinren in a hoarse voice.

"I see you are in some trouble, sir?"

When Fu Xinren saw the maid's appearance, he immediately understood something. He didn't expect that there would be a surprise today? Sure enough, his charm was still as good as before.

So he pretended to be embarrassed, hesitated for a long time before speaking slowly.

"To be honest, young lady, I did run into some trouble. Well, it's a long story..."

After hearing what he said, Xiuhua happily took two meat buns and gave them to Fu Xinren.

"Sir, I am just a little maid. I don't have much ability and can't help you. This is all I can do."

Fu Xinren was very happy to see that he had two more meat buns.

The ugly embroidery instantly became much more beautiful in his eyes.

"Thank you. I will definitely repay you in the future. By the way, I haven't asked for your name yet?"

"Oh my lord..."

Xiuhua looked at Fu Xinren shyly, then said angrily.

"How can you just tell someone a girl's name?"

The shrill sound of embroidery gave Fu Xinren goose bumps on his arms under his sleeves.

But he is also an actor with good acting skills. Even in this situation, he can still talk to Xiuhua with a normal expression.

"Since you are too embarrassed to talk, let me talk about myself first."

So, Fu Xinren made it short and told Xiuhua about his miserable experience.

First of all, he is a good man.

Secondly, he was harmed by two women.
