One touch and one silence

"Go teach them a lesson! If I see you bullying the weak again, I'll chop off your hands!"

"Come here, little brat!"

Fat Fu looked at the brutal man calling him and was a little scared, so he didn't dare to go over.

Seeing that he was not coming, Xinglong had no choice but to walk over by himself with impatience on his face.

"Little thing, why can't you understand what people say?"

"Didn't you hear me calling you over here?"

Fat Fu looked at the man with a ferocious look in his eyes timidly, and was so scared that he leaned against the wall and dared not move.

"Master...what do you want me to do?" The little girl said as she held the copper coin that the man had given her in both hands and placed it in front of Xinglong.

"All...all are yours, please don't kill me!"

Xinglong looked at his frightened expression, put the purse in his hand with a cold face.

"Go return this to that man, and then find a way to get him to take you in. Otherwise, I'll chop off your claws."

"Take good care of him. If you have any bad intentions, I'll make you experience what it means to be unable to live or die, just like that guy."

Xinglong pointed at the guy with a pointed chin and monkey face behind him who was being pinned to the ground and beaten.

The screams were particularly loud in this remote alley, until the person on the ground was beaten to the point of being unable to move, and was then dragged away.

Fat Fu knelt on the ground in fear, kowtowed and begged for mercy.

"Don't worry, sir. I will do as you say."

Xinglong glanced at him and asked with a fierce look on his face, "Will you know what to say later?"

Fat Fu nodded frantically and swallowed nervously, fearing that this man would be dissatisfied and beat him up.

"understand!"

"follow me!"

Following the man's order, Fat Fu had no choice but to follow him obediently.

Fat Fu, who is already seven years old, has experienced the fickleness of human nature in the past two years. His brothers and sisters sent him to his relatives, thinking that he would live a good life and that his grandparents would treat him well. However, who would have known that he would be sold after just over a month.

He finally escaped and followed his memory all the way back here, wanting to find the general who had been so kind to him, but he couldn't even get through the door.

Finally he was caught by this man and made to steal things.

If he failed to steal, he would be beaten and scolded, and even had no food to eat. Now he was caught and forced to serve others. Fat Fu's eyes gradually became misty.

He touched his face roughly, wiped away his tears, and followed the burly man obediently.

He had obviously gotten used to it, but sometimes he still felt aggrieved. The adult had treated him so well in the past, so why couldn't he see him now?

He didn't understand what the brothers and sisters were talking about. Everything was fine before.

Fat Fu is no longer fat now, and can be said to be very thin.

Xinglong moved very quickly. Before Nanzhi got home, the little guy had already arrived at Nanzhi's door. He stood there stupidly and dazedly, waiting for the owner of the yard to come back.

The owner of this yard had to walk and rest along the way. He had no money and could not even ride the most basic ox cart.

Even her stomach was growling with hunger. This was even more miserable than when she had first traveled through time.

It was not until the evening that Nanzhi returned to the door of her home. She felt that most of her life was gone. The road was so long that she thought she would die halfway. Just as she reached the door, she found a child at the door.

She walked forward and called softly.

"Little boy, why are you sleeping here?"

Even in spring, it is easy to catch a cold.

The little guy lying on the ground woke up almost instantly. He was so scared that he wanted to step back immediately and reflexively raised his hands to cover his head.

This series of reactions actually scared Nanzhi.

Nanzhi stepped back a bit, and the expression on her face softened a lot.

"I have no ill intentions, you are blocking my door!"

Nanzhi then realized that the child in front of him was dirty. The little guy glanced at Nanzhi secretly through his eyes.

"You... won't hit me?"

Nanzhi couldn't help but laugh at the child's words, "Why would I hit you?"

Only then did the little guy defensively put down his hands that were protecting his head.

A look at Nanzhi!

Good fellow! Isn't this the guy who stole her belongings at the market today?

Nanzhi's face immediately turned cold.

"Hey! It's you! Didn't you steal my money? Why are you sleeping at my doorstep?"

Nanzhi was stunned by what she said.

Yup!

How did this guy know her home?

Nanzhi did not miss the panic in the child's eyes.

"I...I saw you lying on the ground, I couldn't bear it, and when I saw your hair was all white, I knew you must be sick, so I came back!"

Nanzhi raised her eyebrows, her tone making it hard to tell whether she was happy or angry, "Where's the purse?"

The little guy immediately handed the purse to Nanzhi with both hands as if he was presenting a treasure.

Nanzhi was puzzled for a moment, reached out to take it, and they were all there!

That's even weirder!

Nanzhi reached out and pinched the little guy's wrist. Only then did she realize that the guy's hand was as thin as a straw. It seemed that she could break his hand with just a little force.

In a moment, Nanzhi also knew who this little guy was!

She never thought that she would meet him even though she had left Kyoto, such a remote place.

This fate is so fucking bloody.

Nanzhi couldn't help but take a second look at the child in front of her. To be honest, she was a head taller than this kid. In fact, she was already considered short. This kid was much shorter than she was at the beginning.

I'm afraid Concubine Liu never knew until her death that her precious son was living such a miserable life outside.

In the end, Nanzhi was moved with compassion.

"come in!"

Nanzhi didn't know the burly man and didn't understand why he sent this little guy to her. But was he such a young child? Was he really going to be allowed to continue stealing?

Sooner or later he will be beaten to death.

Forget it, she just happens to be short of a companion now, so just keep her by her side for now!

"Have you eaten yet?"

The little guy shook his head like a rattle.

Nanzhi picked up a bag of pastries helplessly, poured a glass of water for the little guy, and motioned for him to eat a little.

She was too tired today, her whole body ached, and she couldn't cook.

Nanzhi casually filled her stomach and fell asleep on the bed.

Before going to bed, he told him to sleep in the room in front of Erniu.

Let him take a shower, change into clean clothes and go to sleep. Nanzhi felt sleepy and fell into a deep sleep before he could finish his words.

The child seemed like a hungry wolf who had not eaten for more than ten days. Nanzhi quickly ate three pieces of the half pound of cakes, and the rest went into the little guy's stomach.

After he had eaten, he began to think about what the man had asked him to do.

He ran to the window curiously and looked at the white-haired boy, who looked particularly handsome while sleeping.

The best person he had ever met.

The little guy wanted to go forward and help him lift the quilt up, but when he looked at his dirty hands, he withdrew his action.
