The two little guys nodded in response without any hesitation.

"I know, little fairy, there is an aunt who often secretly gives us food, and her family lives a very difficult life.

We know her mother is almost starving to death in order to save food for them, so we will take you there."

When Lan Ning heard this, his eyes lit up and he hurriedly followed the two little beggars to the place they mentioned.

After turning left and right, we soon arrived at a very desolate place.

If Lan Ning guessed correctly, this should be the slum area in the county town.

The houses here are all thatched huts, dilapidated and look like they will collapse at any time. I’m really afraid that the next heavy rain or strong wind will all collapse them.

After wandering around these houses, they finally stopped outside a house with a broken corner.

"Little fairy, this is it."

Lan Ning nodded and took out 10 buns from his arms.

The two little beggars were very surprised. How did the little god put so many buns in? And they didn't smell the fragrance of buns all the way. They were very sensitive to the smell of buns. Every time they saw the shopkeeper of the bun shop bring out a basket of steamed buns, they couldn't stop drooling.

"Here are the buns for you. Give them to them and say they are food given to you by others. They are a lot and you can't finish them all. So give them some. I'll wait for you over there."

The two little beggars took the buns with a confused look on their faces.

"Little fairy, aren't you going? Aren't you supposed to save all living beings? If you don't let your aunt see you, can you complete your mission?"

The two little beggars were very confused. After all, they were just two insignificant little beggars in this mortal world, so they had no idea what these gods were thinking.

Lanning shook his head.

“I won’t go, in case someone discovers my identity later.

You guys go ahead, all right, I'll go over there and wait for you."

After saying this, without waiting for the two little beggars to say anything else, she turned around and trotted away, hiding behind a corner. If you didn't pay attention, you wouldn't be able to spot her at all.

Seeing the little fairy running away, the two little beggars had no choice but to complete it. This was a task assigned by the fairy. Even though they didn’t understand it, they had to complete it.

"Dong dong dong."

The door of the house was knocked, and because it was too old, it made a creaking sound when it was knocked, as if it would fall down at any time.

After a while, someone came and opened the door. Lan Ning, who was hiding behind it, saw a thin and frail woman with gray hair, a haggard face, and empty clothes.

The woman looked gentle when she saw that the people knocking on the door were the two little beggars she always helped.

"It's you, are you hungry?"

After saying this, the woman looked depressed.

"Auntie, I don't have any food for you, but there is water at home. Do you want some water?"

The two little beggars quickly shook their heads and picked up the meat buns in their hands.

"Aunt, we are not here to ask you for food. Look, we have meat buns here. A kind person gave them to us today. She gave us a lot of food. Both of our stomachs are full."

After saying this, the little beggar was afraid that the women would not believe him, so he deliberately puffed up their stomachs and patted them.

As expected, unlike their usual shriveled appearance, their stomachs were now round and plump, and it could be seen that they were indeed full.

"We kept some for ourselves, but we were afraid these meat buns would go bad if we didn't eat them in time, so we brought some for you.

Those people will bully us, and it will be a pity if they snatch it away. Hurry up, aunt, go and give it to grandma, so that she won’t starve to death after eating it.”

The woman still couldn't believe that the two little guys suddenly gave her so much food. She looked at them with some worry.

"Tell your aunt the truth and don't do anything against your conscience."

Knowing what she was worried about and knowing that she had misunderstood, they both quickly shook their heads to indicate that they didn't.

"We won't, auntie, don't worry, this is really given to us by a kindhearted person. She felt sorry for us and saw that other beggars bullied us, so she only gave it to us and even beat up those beggars to prevent them from stealing our food."

The little beggars spoke with great confidence, and from their looks they did not look like they were lying.

The woman wanted to refuse and not want the food, and let the children keep it for themselves, but she couldn't bring herself to say it. Thinking of her mother-in-law who was lying on the bed dying of hunger, she gritted her teeth and took the meat buns.

"Good boy, when auntie has food in the future, she will definitely give it back to you."

As she spoke, the woman shed tears. She had never thought that one day she would be helped by a beggar and ask for food from a beggar.

But she really had no other choice. In order to save food, the mother-in-law wanted to starve herself to death so that the people at home could survive.

But she couldn't bear it. Her mother-in-law was so good to her, even better than her own mother. So she couldn't bear it. She couldn't bear to watch her aunt starve to death.

After taking the meat buns, the woman invited the two little beggars to come in and sit for a while, but they both refused.

"We still have some food hidden away, and we're afraid they'll steal it. We have to go back and guard it now."

One of the little beggars learned it by himself and even said something that made Lan Ning very satisfied.

After hearing what they said, the woman didn't try to keep them any longer. She now completely believed their excuse that they had too much food and were afraid it would go bad.

The little beggar turned and left. The woman did not go back to the house immediately. Instead, she waited until they were out of sight before going back into the house, closing the door, going to the kitchen to pour a bowl of hot water, and then taking the meat bun into her mother-in-law's house.

Another of the 10 mission objectives was completed. There were only 8 mission objectives left, and Lan Ning was very happy.

After meeting the two little beggars, Lan Ning did not leave immediately, but asked them if there were any other families like them.

This time the two little beggars did not answer immediately, but stood there thinking carefully.

They are beggars. They usually meet many different kinds of people and know many different things, but at this moment they really can't remember if there are any such people.

Lan Ning also saw their embarrassment and quickly spoke to comfort them:

"Don't worry, take your time to think about it. If you have an idea, go to Xianyue Tower and find the shopkeeper there. Tell them that you have thought about what I told you to do. Don't tell them what it is."

The two little beggars listened carefully. If they didn't know Lan Ning was a fairy before, they would have doubted her words. But now that they knew she was a fairy, every word she said was true. There was no way she could be false.

And every word must have its reason. They, the mortals, just need to follow it without asking too many questions.
