Chunxi knew that these little beggars were the best at playing dumb and taking advantage of their young age to act pitiful and use many tricks to cheat people out of money.

The little beggar was stunned when he heard this, as if he didn't expect Su Rutang to say this.

He quickly wiped away his tears with his sleeves.

He kowtowed three times and said, "Thank you, Madam, for saving my life."

"Take us there."

"Second Grandma."

"Chunxi, I understand. With you and Xia An around, who would dare to bully you?" Su Rutang was full of curiosity about the little girl who looked a bit like him.

The little beggar took her to a dilapidated temple not far away.

Along the way, the little beggar talked about peach blossoms.

When Su Rutang heard that she was five years old, his heart ached like a needle.

My nose felt sore and my eyes were already wet.

Chunxi knew that Su Rutang was thinking of Yaoyao, and held her shaking arms tightly. "Second Madam, why don't you give the money? Let's not go there."

She was afraid that Su Rutang would not be able to bear it when seeing girls of the same age.

"No problem. I want to see what Yaoyao looks like at this age."

The master and his servants followed the little beggar around and around to the dilapidated temple. They heard that this was originally the family temple of a nearby family. Later, they committed a crime and the house was confiscated.

The owner of the next house left part of the ancestral temple outside the courtyard wall.

It’s been a long time.

It became a gathering place for little beggars.

The little beggar entered the dilapidated temple and ran towards a pile of straw, shouting several times:

"Peach Blossom."

"Peach Blossom."

The little girl lying in the thatch was very thin and looked to be only about three years old.

Su Rutang only took one look and felt a pain in his head that seemed to explode.

She squatted down and held Taohua tightly in her arms.

"Yaoyao, is that you?"

Tears poured down and landed on Taohua's face.

Su Rutang's hands trembled as she held Taohua, forbearing and restraining herself. But she couldn't restrain herself at all, she had a hunch that the little girl in her arms was Yaoyao.

Even if it isn't.

"Yaoyao. Mother will take you home."

The little beggar stood there dumbfounded, his lips moving:

"Ma'am. Is Taohua your daughter?"

"Yes."

"Taohua is a mute."

Chunxi wiped the tears from her face and choked up:

"Second Madam. It can't be the young lady. She was..."

Chunxi turned her head away. They had carried the two little people out of the fire that day with their own hands. They were burned to the point that only a skeleton was left, nothing else.

Xia An turned his head away.

The tears in my eyes fell like free money.

In their eyes, Su Rutang kept all the pain in his heart hidden deep in his heart.

"Second Madam, Taohua's face is too red. We need to find a doctor immediately."

Su Rutang brought Taohua's dirty little face close to his lips, and noticing her hot cheeks, he quickly held her up and stood up.

"Go to Baohetang."

Chunxi stretched out her hand, "Second Grandma, let me hold you."

"Do not."

No one can take the child away from my arms.

Su Rutang ran out holding Taohua, and the little beggar followed him out. When he got outside, he turned around and ran back.

He came to the corner of the ruined temple and dug the ground with a thin piece of stone.

A bowl with a broken mouth was dug out from the ground.

There were a few things inside, and he took out a peace locket and held it in his hand.

After some thought, he restored the land to its original state.

Then he got up and chased after him.

Su Rutang's words and deeds were always those of a lady from a noble family. The most embarrassing moment in her life was when her children died, and after that she completely shut herself off.

She hugged Taohua tightly.

There was only one voice in my heart telling me to go to Baohetang as soon as possible.

Arrived at the gate of Baohe Hall.

Su Rutang rushed in hastily, "Doctor."

Doctor Shen, the doctor in charge of Baohetang, is the apprentice of Doctor Ke and an old acquaintance of Su Rutang.

"Mrs. Zhou."

"Help me take care of this child."

Su Rutang held the child to show to Doctor Shen.

Doctor Shen first took Taohua's pulse, then took out a few silver needles and gave her acupuncture.

Until the acupuncture is finished.

Su Rutang held Taohua tightly, her posture motionless and her eyes dark. Is the child in her arms her Yaoyao?

If I hadn't met Yaoyao in my previous life, would she...

Su Rutang didn't dare to think about it, and at the same time he couldn't figure it out. If it was Yaoyao, then what about the two children's bodies at the fire scene?

Doctor Shen wrote a prescription and got some medicine.

"Mrs. Zhou, go back and boil the medicine. Three bowls of water and one bowl of medicine, twice a day." Doctor Shen looked at Su Rutang hesitantly.

"Doctor Shen, if you have anything to say, just say it."

"The little girl was traumatized and can't speak. She looks like she's been abused and may have many old injuries on her body." Doctor Shen paid attention to Su Rutang's expression while speaking.

Su Rutang's heart sank to the bottom and unspeakable pain came over him.

"Thank you, Doctor Shen."

Doctor Shen prescribed several bottles of medicine, including wound medicine, each of which was wrapped in a piece of paper with the symptoms and uses written on it.

Xia An took the medicine and paid the money.

Su Rutang was still holding Taohua, Chunxi and Xia An followed behind without daring to speak.

Out of Baohe Hall.

The little beggar waited aside.

He came to Su Rutang, his eyes clear and firm with a hint of arrogance. "Madam, are you going to take Taohua away?"

"Well, I'll take her away."

The little beggar looked at the peach blossoms reluctantly and forced himself to look away.

"Please treat Taohua well if you don't want her anymore. Please return her to me and I will take care of her."

Su Rutang burst into tears.

The little beggar who values ​​friendship and loyalty is more humane than those scumbags in Zhou's mansion.

"Are you willing to go back with me?" Su Rutang couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"Shall I go back with you?"

The little beggar seemed not to believe it and he opened his palms.

She revealed the peace locket, "This is what Taohua fought hard to protect when I met her. At that time, someone tried to snatch her peace locket, and I don't know where Taohua got so much strength."

"Put this peace lock in your mouth to prevent those guys from snatching it."

What he didn't say was that he was beaten half to death by those people that day in order to protect Taohua. If he hadn't hit a little beggar with a stone, the other party wouldn't have let it go.

Su Rutang stood there in a daze as if struck by lightning.

Chunxi picked up the peace locket with trembling hands, swallowed it in surprise, and cried in disbelief:

"It's Miss Yaoyao's peace locket."

Xia An hurriedly supported the staggering Su Rutang.

Su Rutang's mind was in a mess and she couldn't think of anything at the moment.

"Don't tell anyone about this. Just say that I've taken a fancy to a little girl and brought her back to keep by my side." Su Rutang looked at the little beggar with a sharp gaze, "What's your name? Are you willing to go back with me to protect Yaoyao?"

"Is Taohua's name Yaoyao?"

"Ah."

"My name is Rong Rui."

Chunxi saw that Su Rutang was unable to walk to the grain shop, so he asked Xia An to go and call Ma Liu over.

She took Su Rutang back to Baohetang to wait.

Su Rutang really couldn't walk, and all his strength was used on the little person in his arms.

She didn't expect that God would give her such a big surprise since her rebirth.

She carried Yaoyao back to Baohe Hall, and Doctor Shen took them to the backyard. He didn't ask much, just one question: "Shall I ask the servant to buy some clothes for the child?"

"Thank you, Doctor Shen." Chunxi wanted to go shopping for clothes by herself.

He was also afraid that something might happen to Su Rutang, so he always had to have someone by his side.

Doctor Shen said with relief:

"Everything will be fine after everything has gone wrong."
