Chapter 390: Recruiting a large number of people 3

There were twenty-three people in total, seven boys and sixteen girls. It was really not easy for such a group of little beggars to stick together for warmth and survive until now.

The twenty-three little beggars, like a group of little soldiers who were teased by fate but remained indomitable, used their tender but strong shoulders to jointly support a small but warm sky.

Although the seven boys were dressed in rags, there was an unyielding light in their eyes. They were always the first to stand up and protect the sixteen weak but equally tough girls.

The girls, with their unique delicacy and tenderness, used woven rags to sew simple clothes for everyone, and used the leftovers they picked up to piece together meals that were not rich but full of love.

Liu Caiyun took them for a walk on the street. Liu's father asked her to take them to the clothing store to buy clothes, and then take them to fill their stomachs. After a while, they would go to the county town gate to take a ox cart back. Everyone looked dirty and went back to take a shower and clean up.

Liu's father went to three shops in the county town to check the situation.

Liu Hao was driving a donkey cart to deliver the goods, and the two of them were walking at this time.

Liu Caiyun was like a leader, with a group of little kids following behind her, which attracted the attention of all the people in the county. She didn't care at all and brought a group of people to a ready-made clothing store, which they had been patronizing for a long time. This store was run by a woman, who didn't look down on people like other stores, nor did she bully customers because of her size.

When the woman saw Liu Caiyun and her group, a warm smile immediately appeared on her face. That smile showed both her welcome to her regular customers and her love for the children. "Mrs. Liu, you're here! What are you doing?"

As she spoke, she came out from behind the counter and greeted them personally. But when she looked at the group of little beggars at the door, she still asked her what was going on?

Liu Caiyun smiled and nodded in response: "Yes, Shopkeeper Li, I brought the children here today to pick out some new clothes. They didn't come in because there were too many people and they didn't want to disturb other customers in the store and disrupt your business. But I want you to find someone to help them check the sizes. If there are ready-made clothes of suitable sizes, each person can take two. If there are not enough ready-made clothes, I will ask you to make them urgently. Do you think it's okay?"

Aunt Li was very familiar with Liu Caiyun. After all, the work clothes for their family's custom-made shop and the clothes and fabrics for everyone in the family were basically bought from her.

"Okay, I'll take a look at them myself. Don't worry, I can tell the right size for them just by looking at them. It doesn't matter if the clothes are a little bigger, these children will still grow."

"Then I'll trouble you, Shopkeeper Li."

Shopkeeper Li skillfully measured the size of each child, while Liu Caiyun helped to select fabrics and styles. Occasionally, she would chat with Shopkeeper Li about some recent news in the county, and the two of them had a very pleasant conversation.

Finally, everyone was given a set of ready-made clothes, which were not so fitted, and were mostly a little larger. Shopkeeper Li asked someone to collect the sewing for them, so that they could wear them for a long time.

Then, we made a set of spare clothes for each of them, which they could pick up three days later.

Liu Caiyun was walking home with a group of satisfied little kids. Their faces were filled with happy smiles. They imagined that they would never have to worry about going hungry again, never have to worry about the dilapidated temple leaking on rainy days, never have to worry about getting sick or catching a cold and not having money to go to the clinic, and never have to worry about watching someone who was fine yesterday die because they had no money to go to the clinic.

After coming out, Liu Caixia took a group of people to buy some buns and steamed buns.

"Yuanhua, share some with your brothers and sisters. After we finish eating, we will leave the city. By the way, I will tell you about our next plan."

"Okay, thank you Aunt Caixia!"

Aunt Caiyun was what Liu Caiyun asked them to call her. She really didn't know what to call her. She really couldn't accept the term "master" or "mistress".

When they arrived at the city gate, they discovered a serious problem: the ox cart back to the village might not be able to carry so many of them at once.

Yuen Wah was obviously aware of the problem and took the initiative to say, "Auntie Caiyun, let me take a few people back on foot! Let the younger ones take the bullock cart. I will take the rest back on foot."

Liu Caiyun thought that walking was fine. The ox cart was not fast anyway, it just made people less tired, and walking wouldn't make them much later.

"Okay, just follow the oxcart. The oxcart is not going very fast, so it doesn't matter if you can't keep up. We will be waiting for you at the entrance of the village. Just follow the pipeline outside the city, and you will arrive at the first village you see."

"Ok!"

Liu Caiyun herself did not ride on the ox cart because there were already many people sitting on Uncle Wan’s ox cart.

She directly called five little girls over and said, "You guys take a seat!"

Five little girls stood timidly in front of the ox cart, and Grandpa Wan said nothing. Some mean aunts in the village were not very popular and refused to do it.

"Aunt Liu, these little girls of yours are so dirty. It's obvious that they haven't taken a bath for a long time. Don't make us feel nauseous along the way!"

The little girl felt even more at a loss when she heard these words.

"Aunt, they can't bother you. You're sitting so far away, even a dog's nose can't smell the smell coming from so far away."

Liu Caiyun really didn't know how to argue, and this guy didn't seem to want to shut up with her. She almost wanted to show her fist.

Seeing that no one was talking, Liu Caiyun said to the aunt next to her, "Don't worry, aunt, they won't be close to you. These girls are too young and their bodies can't bear to walk back." After saying that, she secretly stuffed two maltose into her.

The aunt was also very considerate. She took the maltose and put it in her pocket.

"It's Aunt Liu. Don't worry, she'll sit next to me. She can't get close to anyone else because of her butt."

After seeing the five little girls sitting down, Uncle Wan picked up the bullwhip and said, "Hold on tight, we're off!"

The ox cart was moving slowly in front, and a group of people followed behind in a mighty and majestic manner, which was quite spectacular.

The sun gently sprinkled on the winding country road, adding a touch of warmth to the quiet scene. The old ox on the oxcart seemed to feel the tranquility and harmony, and it walked forward at a leisurely pace.

The group of people following the ox cart gradually relaxed, and occasionally one could hear them chattering in whispers. Everyone's face was filled with relaxation and joy.

Occasionally, there would be two lively boys, skipping and jumping in the middle of the team, laughing softly from time to time.

The scenery along the way is like a slowly unfolding painting. The emerald green rice fields sway gently in the wind, as if whispering; the mountains in the distance are layered and shrouded in clouds and mist, like a fairyland; the creek nearby gurgles by, clear to the bottom, and a few ducks swim leisurely in it, enjoying the gift of nature.

All of this makes people feel relaxed and happy, and forgets the troubles of this world.

He Yuanhua also felt that all this was so beautiful, so beautiful that he couldn't believe at this moment that all this was true.

They have new clothes and each of them just ate two meat buns.

Uh... they seemed a little anxious eating just now.

The way you eat doesn’t look very pretty!
