Don't panic in a famine, I live in the mountains with my golden finger

Xu Yuan understood, pulled the corners of his mouth, touched Shuanzi's neck, and then heard a loud begging for mercy.

"Lady, lady, please forgive me. I know I was wrong. I will give this back to you."

"I have an 80-year-old grandmother and a three-year-old baby who needs to be fed. I cannot go to jail. I was bewitched for a while. I know I was wrong. Please spare my life, lady."

Shuanzi was free to speak and began to beg for mercy with his eyes wide open. He took out a purse that had not even been warmed up from his arms and presented it to Xuyuan with both hands.

Xu Yuan took a look at the pair of little hands with frostbite and was half-believing and half-doubting what the boy said, so he reached out and snatched the purse from his hand.

"Okay, seeing that your attitude is so sincere, I won't bother with you. Go away."

Since he knew he was wrong and got the purse back, Xuyuan certainly wouldn't make things difficult for a child.

"However, you met me this time. If you had met someone who is difficult to talk to, you would not be so lucky." Xu Yuan gave a rare reminder.

"I know, I won't do it next time." Shuanzi nodded desperately, huddled up, his eyes dim, his lips tightly pursed, looking down at his bare feet exposed in the snow, feeling helpless. What should he do? I'm afraid his family won't survive this winter. Unless it was absolutely necessary, even if he had ten times the courage, he would never do such a sneaky thing.

But his grandmother and younger brother were sick and were waiting for him to buy medicine. However, the money he brought with him was stolen by others. He wanted to report to the police, but those bad guys threatened him that they would kill his grandmother and younger brother if he told anyone.

How could someone be so bad? He really wanted to take his grandma and his little brother away from the county instead of coming here to live with some crappy relative. But in the end, he couldn't even get through the door.

The more Shuanzi thought about it, coupled with Xuyuan's rare kind reminder, the more his eyeballs shed. Then he sat down on the ground and began to cry. He was a man and couldn't cry casually. But he didn't get anything to eat to go home today, and he was caught. He was hungry and thirsty, and he really couldn't help it. At least if he cried, he could moisten his mouth with tears.

So Xu Yuan stopped before he could leave, and looked at the boy in front of him curiously. He was crying and catching his falling tears with his hands, then putting them on his lips, looking very pitiful.

"Have you cried enough, kid?" Xuyuan joked.

"Ah? Lady, why haven't you left yet?" Shuanzi suddenly paused, sobbed, and looked at Xuyuan with a pair of red eyes.

"Well, I haven't left yet. Get up. It's still cold sitting on the ground." Xu Yuan grabbed his shoulder and pulled him up without waiting for Shuanzi to react.

Shuanzi was a little flattered. He moved his body a little further away from Xuyuan and brushed off the non-existent dust on his body.

He is so dirty, how come the heroine doesn't dislike him at all?

Seeing the shock and confusion on Shuanzi's face, Xu Yuan curled his lips and said, "You call me a heroine, how could I really embarrass a child?"

"Oh." Shuanzi wiped his tears and nodded.

"The weather is cold, go home early." Xu Yuan patted Shuanzi's shoulder and turned to leave.

Shuanzi was about to say something, but when he looked down and saw something, his eyes suddenly widened. He quickly picked it up and shouted to Xuyuan, "Lady, your purse fell!"

"Whatever you pick up is yours, kid. The weather is getting cold. It's New Year's Day, so I'll buy you some thick clothes."

Xu Yuan curled the corners of his mouth and replied, then he tiptoed onto the eaves and disappeared from the sight of Shuanzi who was chasing him.

Shuanzi held the bulging purse in his hand, his eyes reddened again, "Thank you, lady! I, Shuanzi, will definitely remember your kindness."

After Shuanzi finished speaking, he rolled on the ground and kowtowed several times in the direction where Xuyuan had left, then put the purse into his arms and ran towards the bank. He didn't need so much money, he had to return it to the heroine, so that he would know the heroine's name.

Because he ran too fast, he fell to the ground, but this time Shuanzi did not cry out in pain, but burst into laughter.

It hurts, his body hurts, so he is not dreaming, hahaha, everything is real.

Shuanzi quickly got up, laughing as he ran, and ran to the crowded street, attracting the attention of several passers-by, "Where did this crazy boy come from?"

……

After Xu Yuan did a good deed, he turned and walked towards the clothing store.

As for why she suddenly helped the child, of course she searched the boy's memory and found that the boy was not a habitual offender. He was caught by her for the first time. It was just as he said, with an 80-year-old grandmother and a hungry three-year-old brother, and they escaped from the massacred Heping Village and came to Lin'an to seek refuge with their relatives.

It shouldn't be so difficult for a boy of eight or nine years old to have such strong willpower. Sometimes lending a hand unintentionally may save someone. Since you have the chance to come across such a thing and have the ability to help, why not do it?

Soon, Xu Yuan stopped in front of a shop. It was lunch time and there were not many people in the shop.

Just as she was about to go in, she saw a carriage stop nearby and a pretty girl stepped out of it. She was wearing a bright red cloak and had a free and graceful manner.

She is truly a girl raised in a wealthy family.

Xuyuan just took a glance and then looked away.

An Zeyun gathered her cloak, looked up at the plaque, curled her lips, and then walked inside.

In the shop, Xu Yuan declined the clerk's service and first selected several pieces of suitable cloth. Then he bought two sets of clothes for each of Xu Zhi and the others. Children eat well and grow faster, so the sizes they bought were slightly larger.

Hu Sanniang was taking a break in the back room at this time. When she heard the waiter come to report that Xu Yuan was coming, she quickly got up and went out to greet him.

"Xiao Xu."

Hu Sanniang walked to Xu Yuan with a smile and took the things from his hand. "Look at you, you didn't even tell me when you came. Come here, this is the new clothing in the store. It suits you very well. Are you interested in buying a set?"

"I just want to buy some cloth and will leave soon so as not to disturb Aunt Hu." Xu Yuan replied. Of course, Xu Yuan refused Hu Sanniang's sales pitch as it was not suitable for her at all.

"Then let me see it."

Hearing this, An Zeyun came over from the other side and took a look at the girl who was so warmly received by the shopkeeper and made a wish. There was nothing special about her. She was dressed like a peasant girl, but her face was quite pretty.
