I brought five birds to eat and drink with my girlfriends in ancient times

More than half an hour later, Shangnan arrived at the clinic in a horse-drawn carriage filled with small radishes of all sizes.

Li Si went over and replaced Shangnan. Shangnan picked up Xiaozhu and put her on the carriage, followed by Datou Chong and the other three.

Bai Zhi gave the silver, took the medicine bag and got on the carriage with Shangguan Yue.

When she arrived at Zhang Shurou's private residence, Shangguan Yue learned that the name of the house was Jiazi Lane because the lane was as narrow as a clamp.

The door was locked. Shangguan Yue was about to say that she didn't bring the key and asked Shangnan to remove the lock.

Shangnan pulled out an iron needle from his waist belt, poked the lock core a few times, and the lock opened with a click.

Shangguan Yue stared at Shangnan with eyes wide open, what a talented and versatile person!

Shangnan turned around and saw Shangguan Yue's expression. He nodded awkwardly and smiled.

This is just the result of being locked up so many times as a child, so he can't tell it out loud.

The house hadn't been cleaned for some time, and there were a lot of fallen leaves on the ground. The house that Xiao San moved into could easily accommodate dozens of children.

There is a well, a washing area, a kitchen and a firewood room in the yard. Zhang Shurou knows how to enjoy herself.

It looks inconspicuous from the outside, but everything is complete and meticulous inside.

There are fourteen children in total, the oldest is only eleven years old and the youngest is only five years old.

Ten men and four women, why are there more men than women? In ancient times, men were supposed to carry on the family line and inherit the incense.

But it’s a different story if you give birth to five or six boys, because the boys will bankrupt your parents and you will have to abandon them if you can’t raise them.

Although women had a low status in ancient times, they ate less and worked more, and were easier to sell.

She can be sold as a maid, a concubine, or even to a brothel.

Xiaozhu was one of them, but she was a lucky person in misfortune. Both her parents died, she had no property, and only a shabby house was left.

So her uncle either beat or scolded her, and finally sold her to a brothel. She escaped on the way and hid in a stinky ditch for a whole day and night, not daring to come out.

It was Datou Chong, Erbai, Shanguang and the other two who discovered it and brought it back to the dilapidated house.

This time he got injured and had a fever because of Sugimitsu's birthday. Thinking of the birthday rice cake his mother had made for him before she passed away, he cried secretly.

Xiaozhu was kicked when she wanted to beg for some money to buy rice cakes for Shanguang.

Seeing these children, Shangguan Yue felt very depressed. Even in modern times, there are still many poor children.

But modern poor children still have many opportunities and choices, but in ancient times they had no choice but to struggle for survival.

The men and women can live in separate rooms. Vegetables can be planted in one corner of the yard, and a martial arts training ground can be set up in the middle. There is already a stone table and stone benches under the big tree in the other corner, so there is no need to change it.

After giving Datou Chong twenty taels of silver, daily necessities could be purchased on the streets on both sides of the alley.

Tell them to take a bath every day and pay attention to hygiene, buy some cloth and needles and thread to make their own clothes, and if they don’t know how to do it, they can buy ready-made clothes later.

I'll find them a master and teacher in the future, and after a few years of learning, they can help her.

She is not a saint, and it is impossible for her to help others unconditionally. If you want to get something, you must give it.

After explaining everything, it was already getting late, so Shangguan Yue returned to the general's mansion.

When the children in the room saw Shangguan Yue leave, they all cheered loudly.

Look here, touch there, everything is so beautiful.

“Brothers and sisters, we are lucky to meet a master like the eldest lady today.

We must repay her in the future. If you don't want to stay here and don't want to repay the young lady after you have learned the skills, you can leave now.

I don’t want heartless and ungrateful people, or people who don’t remember or repay kindness.”

Although Datou Chong is only eleven years old, he is the oldest among the group of children and has always been like a big brother.

"Brother Chong, we are not that kind of villains. We still want to follow the eldest lady and enjoy the good life! No one can let us go."

"Yes, we won't leave unless the young lady doesn't want me."

"We are the same. I want to learn more and become the most useful person in the eyes of the young lady in the future."

Shangguan Yue had no idea what the children in Jiazi Lane were thinking. She was so hungry that her stomach was sticking to her back.

She left all the food and snacks packed by Juxing Tower to the group of children. They were all pale and thin, some were sick or injured, and she didn't need that meal.

When we returned to the General's Mansion, it was already getting dark.

Xiaoman waited in the Rose Courtyard until her neck grew several inches longer, and finally waited for Shangguan Yue to come back, and rushed over hurriedly.

"Oh! Miss, I've been waiting for you for a long time. The general and his wife are waiting for you to have dinner at Junlan Garden! Go quickly!

Li Si, don't go. Send the young lady to Junlan Garden first."

Xiaoman didn't want to run back because it was too late.

Shangguan Yue didn't want to walk another seven or eight minutes, so she got on the carriage with Xiaoman and Baizhi.

Junlan Garden and Rose Courtyard are closer, so Shangnan was not allowed to follow, and he was asked to go and eat and rest early.

Jin Feiyun dragged his limp body to the door, looking at Shangnan who came back with a smile on his face, and he really wanted to beat him up.

……

In the dining room, Chen Bianbian and Shangguan Yan sat together and whispered.

Seeing Shangguan Yue coming in, Chen Bianbian stood up happily.

"Xiaoyue, your father will return to the camp tomorrow morning, so let's have dinner together tonight." Chen Bianbian pulled Shangguan Yue to sit at the dining table.

"Oh! Dad, if you leave tomorrow, can you find me a master who can teach me martial arts?"

"Yue'er, do you want to learn martial arts?" Shangguan Yan asked. Chen Bianbian was also a little surprised. Xiaoyue had never told her that she wanted to learn martial arts!

"It's not that I want to learn, but I want to teach others." Shangguan Yue told Shangguan Yan and Chen Bianbian what happened today.

"For this small matter, I can arrange Yan Jiu to go. Yan Jiu, come out for a moment." Just as Shangguan Yan finished speaking, a person floated down from the beam, scaring Shangguan Yue and Chen Bianbian.

Could this be the legendary secret guard?

Yan Jiu, dressed in black, looked young, perhaps less than 20 years old. Were the people in ancient times so powerful?

Jin Feiyun could take her flying quickly, and Shangnan could kill three people in two or three moves. This person who floated down silently was as terrifying as a ghost.

"Yan Jiu, you are responsible for teaching the children martial arts in Jiazi Lane." Shangguan Yan said.

"Yes, General, but if I go, who will take over..."

"Yan Hong, come out." Shangguan Yan did not answer Yan Jiu.

A woman, about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a heroic look on her face, stood out from the shadow behind the big vase.

Shangguan Yue and Chen Bianbian looked at each other. When did so many people hide in this room? Are there other people hiding?

The two looked at the roof and the windowsill...it felt like there were people hiding in every dark place.

"Madam, Yan Hong will follow you from now on. She is quite skilled in martial arts. I'll feel more at ease with her when I'm not around." Shangguan Yan said, holding Chen Bianbian's hand.

Chen Bianbian nodded and shyly withdrew her hand. This guy doesn’t care about the occasion. Xiaoyue is still here!

"Dad, what about me? You won't give me one."
