Looking at the mother and daughter who were cleaning up the dishes and still playing around, Tao Qingyuan simply couldn't remain calm.

When he first accepted Luo Yi's entrustment to escort and protect this girl, although the person he had to deal with was a prince, he did not feel any pressure at all.

Later, when the mother and daughter were together, someone posted a flower list looking for Brother Hui. He still felt no pressure when he asked his friends in the underworld for help.

If you owe someone a favor like this, the worst that can happen is that you can just repay it in this way.

Everyone in the world has encountered difficulties and needed help.

But now it's different.

Brother Hui's true identity makes it impossible for him to handle the situation with just his martial arts skills and years of experience.

Therefore, even though he now knows that he is not capable of doing it, he dare not look for help from his acquaintances in the underworld.

Brother Hui's current identity is too tempting! So tempting that it can make some people who are unwilling to be mediocre and eager to try.

Tao Qingyuan was also skeptical about the Black Bat Gang and its young leader Kong who was following him secretly.

Late last night, Tao Qingyuan went out to investigate and found out that the other party's target was not Brother Hui, but this girl.

Tao Qingyuan wanted to take a gamble, betting that Gang Leader Kong's action was just for love.

Therefore, he did not tell Mu Yingbao.

In the next few days, during the day, the three of them went to the beach to catch mantis shrimps, pick up eggs, and dig oysters. Mu Yingbao also picked some fish and shrimps when the fishing boats docked.

Although the price given is not very high, it is definitely higher than the market price.

Although the fishermen in the village were curious about the origins of this family of three, they did not look like criminals hiding here, so they all reached a tacit consensus not to tell people outside the village about this family of three.

The children in the village came to play with Brother Hui every day. At the beginning, Brother Hui was not very relaxed.

After a few days, he would take the initiative to go out and play with others, but he would not go far, just near the yard, within the distance that Mu Yingbao could see him when he stood in the yard.

"You've gone a bit too far this time. Have you ever thought about what it will be like when you see that person again?" Tao Qingyuan asked as he stood in the yard and looked at the man who was skewering squid with bamboo sticks.

"I don't plan to see him again." Mu Yingbao responded indifferently, without any hesitation in his movements.

This is enough to prove that she had already thought about this problem and had already made plans to deal with it.

"What? Is it you?" Tao Qingyuan asked in disbelief.

He knew that Mu Yingbao would not influence Hui Ge's decision, and he also knew the child's final choice, but he didn't know that she did not plan to be with the child.

Seeing Tao Qingyuan's reaction, Mu Yingbao knew that he understood what she meant.

"Yes, Brother Hui's final destination will be the capital. Since he has chosen that path, he must have thought about what he will face and what he will lose in the future.

You know, I'm not scheming enough, and I don't like living in conspiracy all day. I'm reluctant to leave Brother Hui, but I won't go down that road with him.

I have done everything I can for him, and from now on it depends on him." Mu Yingbao said as he stood up and looked at Brother Hui who was not far away from the low stone wall.

Enjoy it, kid. This is what you should do at your age. These will be the happiest and most beautiful memories in your memory.

"Aren't you worried about him at all? If that succeeds, he will be the new monarch of Yan State. If it fails, you know the consequences." Tao Qingyuan reminded again.

He knew how important the child was to her, so he was even more worried about the bad outcome.

"How can I not be worried? However, I am not worried about the result, but the process. He is only nine years old, and it is unfair for him to bear such a heavy burden. However, he has no other choice.

Because I know this child, he has a strong sense of right and wrong. If he sits in that position, he will definitely be a wise ruler.

Although I don't know much about Shang Jia, I met the old man once and I think he is reliable.

There is also the handsome gentleman Luo Yi, and the man named Xue.

With these three people around him to assist him, it won't be difficult for him to accomplish anything. "Mu Yingbao turned to Tao Qingyuan and expressed his opinion.

Mu Yingbao had no doubt about Brother Hui's abilities.

"By the way, don't just talk about me. You have a special relationship with Luo Yi. After this incident, have you never thought about how to face him in the future? Also, I can say with certainty that Brother Hui will definitely be able to sit in that position, so shouldn't you consider helping him? Maybe you can be granted a title and become a prime minister in the future." Mu Yingbao asked with a smile.

"I have a good relationship with Luo Yi, but I never owe him anything. Instead, he owes me a favor. Although he asked me to protect you in the beginning, didn't I do it?

Besides, this matter was decided by you and has nothing to do with me.

I am standing in a neutral position in this matter. Putting aside all these, what is the relationship between us now? What about the granddaughter and the grandfather? I have no reason to go against my own granddaughter. "Tao Qingyuan was very confident and felt that what he said was justified and there was nothing wrong with it.

After hearing what the old man said, Mu Yingbao gave him a thumbs up and said with great satisfaction, "Sniff, just tell me, how could I have misjudged someone."

"Stop talking, Brother Hui is coming." Tao Qingyuan didn't have time to talk and quickly reminded.

"Mother, what are you talking about with great-grandfather?" Brother Hui came into the yard excitedly and asked.

"We're talking about you." Mu Yingbao responded with a smile.

Tao Qingyuan was nervous at first, but when he saw Mu Yingbao looking at him with a raised mouth, he knew he had been fooled. This girl was teasing him on purpose!

"That little girl's name is Haihua, right? She's pretty." Mu Yingbao shifted his gaze to Brother Hui and spoke to the children who were walking away outside.

Haihua is Haibei's cousin, she is six years old this year, a little beauty, and sticks to Brother Hui as soon as she arrives.

Originally, Mu Yingbao wanted to tease Brother Hui by saying that he wanted Haihua to grow up and become his wife.

But when Brother Hui heard his mother mention that little sister, his expression immediately became gloomy.

"What's wrong? Has the little girl already been engaged?" Mu Yingbao asked casually.

"Mother, Haibei told me that if his aunt can't pay off the debt by the end of this year, she might sell Haihua. Mother, can we help them?" Brother Hui asked sadly.

"How much foreign debt does Haihua's family owe?" Mu Yingbao was very curious. "The son knows. Haibei said that his uncle went to Haihua before she was born.

Some people said he was killed in battle, but the government did not receive any documents proving he was killed in battle, so his household registration was still there.

The government said that Haihua's father was still alive, but was hiding to avoid paying taxes. Not only did they deduct the years of military service, but they also asked their family to pay an additional 30 years of rent and taxes. If they didn't pay, their house would be confiscated and they would be thrown into jail.

So, they had no choice but to sell their house, and when the money they scraped together was still not enough, they borrowed some money at high interest rates to get by.

The family struggled to make ends meet and even Haibei's family helped to pay off the debt, but it was useless. The interest kept compounding and the debt grew. Now it was 120 taels. Haibei said that his aunt had led her family to jump into the sea, but fortunately they were discovered by the villagers in time. "Brother Hui quickly told Mu Yingbao what he knew.

Living with Mu Yingbao, Brother Hui also understands the daily expenses of food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Therefore, he was very clear about the significance of 120 taels to ordinary people. He also knew that even if he sold the sea flowers, he would only get 10 taels of silver at most, which could not solve the fundamental problem. Brother Hui felt that now only he and his mother could help the poor little sister.

"Okay, I got it. You and I will go find the old village chief later. It is safer to let him come forward to resolve this matter." Mu Yingbao agreed without saying a word.

Kouzi AP Zhi A Shou 0p continued to say that even if the sea flowers were sold, at most there would be ten taels of silver, which could not solve the fundamental problem at all.

Brother Hui felt that now only he and his mother could help the poor little sister.

"Okay, I got it. You and I will go find the old village chief later. It is safer to let him come forward to resolve this matter." Mu Yingbao agreed without saying a word.

Anything that can be solved with money is not a big deal!

Mu Yingbao knew that such things were very common in ancient times, and she couldn't help all those who were forced to sell their children to make a living, but when she saw such a thing happening, she would of course help if she had the ability.

An hour later, the matter was done.

However, Mu Yingbao noticed that Brother Hui's mood had been off since he came back from the moneylenders at Sanyang Wharf with the old village chief and Haihua's mother...
