Chapter 141: You can do good things, but you can’t be a pushover
The next day.
Zhang Hulan and the others went downstairs to have breakfast. When she asked Luo Changqi to deliver steamed buns to Liu Cong and the others, she found that he was not there.
The inn waiter said that they had left the inn before dawn.
They knew that if guests saw them, it would affect the inn's business.
The innkeeper let them stay for one night, and they had to be sensible.
Luo Changqi saw Liu Cong and the others outside the inn, gave them the steamed buns, and said, "You guys eat first, and Madam will come out after she finishes her meal."
Liu Cong took the steamed bun and said, "Thank you!"
When Zhang Hulan came out after dinner, Liu Cong came forward with a group of children and said, "Madam, please accept us."
Zhang Hulan looked at the group of children. They all had pale faces and thin bodies, but their eyes were not as lifeless as those of other beggars.
Liu Cong and the others also looked at Zhang Hulan nervously. There was light and hope in the eyes of these children...
Zhang Hulan said, "Uncle Luo told me about your situation last night. You can all come with me, but you all need to understand that you will have to work once you get there. You will have to support yourselves with your own hands."
Liu Cong brought all the children to their knees and kowtow to Zhang Hulan, "Thank you, Madam, for taking us in!"
"You all get up."
Zhang Hulan was quite touched, but she did not show it on her face and even seemed a little cold.
She didn't want to influence Zhang Xinyao and Zhang Xinyi, and didn't want them to become people who were overly loving in the future, as that would easily put them at a disadvantage.
You can do good things, but you can't let your daughter become a nicety.
Later, she planned to let Luo Changqi pick any one of them and take back some of the sneaky people.
Later, let Zhang Xinyao and Zhang Xinyi see the bad side of those people, and then drive them away in front of them.
……
Not far away, Hu Sanlang watched Zhang Hulan come out, and then said to Ma Er and Huang San, "See? That's the woman and the two girls beside her."
The two nodded, "No problem, leave it to us brothers.
We will wait outside the city, and as soon as she leaves, we will follow her."
……
When we arrived at the place where Luo Changqi met the beggar last night, it was already crowded with beggars, with more than a hundred of them.
There must be more than just these beggars in the city. After discussing last night, a few beggars decided to spread the news, but not too many people.
If too few people came, it would seem they weren't doing their job with all their heart; if too many came, it would affect them personally. So they called in over a hundred people in total.
As soon as Luo Changqi arrived, the old beggar from last night came up and said, "Sir, most of the beggars nearby are here. We can't notify those who are too far away."
Luo Changqi nodded, "That's enough."
Then Luo Changqi began to select people.
His method was simple. He asked all the beggars and old beggars to stretch out their hands and open their palms.
Take away those with thick calluses on their hands, and discard those with thin calluses.
The little beggars were all taken away.
If an old person and a child are in danger at the same time, Zhang Hulan will definitely save the younger one.
The elderly have lived in this world for decades, while the children's life has just begun.
A total of one hundred and forty to fifty people came, young and old. In the end, Luo Changqi selected more than eighty old beggars, both men and women.
There were more than forty little beggars, and including Liu Cong and his friends, there were more than fifty of them.
Only twenty or thirty people didn't want them.
Luo Changqi could tell at a glance that those people were not good people.
Those who were not chosen knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Please, Madam, be kind and take us away with you..."
Zhang Xinyao and Zhang Xinyi watched those people kowtow continuously, and the two sisters looked up at Zhang Hulan.
Zhang Hulan just smiled at the two of them and remained unmoved.
With so many beggars surrounding here, it naturally attracted a lot of people's attention.
The onlookers saw that someone wanted to take in these beggars. Some people thought Zhang Hulan was a kind-hearted person, while others thought Zhang Hulan was a fool.
Someone felt sorry for the beggars who kept kowtowing, so he said, "Madam, since you are doing a good deed, don't be partial to some and take them all away."
Zhang Hulan looked at the person who was speaking. "Are you teaching me how to do things? If you feel sorry for them, then just take them back."
“You…” The man was extremely angry, “You, man, I was just making a suggestion, why should I take them back?”
Zhang Hulan retorted, "Isn't love something you spend money on? Is it something you give to others? If you don't have the ability to do good deeds, don't even talk."
The man was so angry that he turned away.
Some people also think that Zhang Hulan has ulterior motives and must be forcing these beggars to do hard labor. There are people like this.
Some cruel people would take the beggars back to do hard labor, without paying them, only giving them one meal a day, and when they died, they would drag them away and throw them into mass graves.
Most people think this way. How can there be fools in this world willing to support these people for free?
Then someone said to the beggars who were chosen: "I tell you to be careful, don't let others force you to do hard labor, or you'll lose your life..."
Many beggars were worried about this matter. When they heard someone say this and saw Zhang Hulan's cold face and unwillingness to speak, they became even more worried.
The beggars who were kowtowing stopped kowtowing and all looked at Zhang Hulan warily.
Zhang Hulan saw the hesitation of those people and said, "Think it over carefully. Those who are willing to go with me will follow me to Changning County in a while. Those who don't want to go with me, forget it. I won't force them."
Zhang Hulan then said, "Those who want to go with me should stand behind me, and those who don't want to go can leave on their own."
Many people were hesitating whether to follow Zhang Hulan.
Liu Cong and the others did not hesitate and stood directly behind Zhang Hulan.
The grandfather and grandson hesitated for a moment, then walked over.
When the forty or so little beggars saw Liu Cong and the others were about to follow Zhang Hulan, they hesitated for a moment and followed suit. All the children followed suit.
But the older beggar hesitated for a longer time, and after some hesitation, he finally walked towards Zhang Hulan.
But there were only about twenty people, and the rest were hesitant, while some simply said they would not go.
People are just like that. Zhang Hulan wasn't angry. It was her own choice. People without opinions of their own will rarely succeed in life.
Zhang Hulan said, "Okay, that's all. We don't need the rest."
After hearing Zhang Hulan say no, those who hesitated regretted their decision and quickly said, "Madam, I'll go too..."
"I, I'm going too..."
"Let's go too..."
Zhang Hulan said, "I said, no."
Zhang Hulan ignored those people and said to Dong Jianyong, "Uncle Dong, buy two steamed buns for the people who are leaving.
Dong Jianyong asked a few people to go with him to buy steamed buns. The steamed buns were bought back quickly and then distributed to everyone in public.
Those who hesitated and were rejected now regret it even more, white steamed buns...
Zhang Hulan ignored those people and said to Dong Jianyong, "Uncle Dong, take your people and wait for us outside the city. We'll come out after we finish buying the things. Please count the number of people and don't let anyone sneak in."
"it is good."
Dong Jianyong counted the number of people and then took them out of the city.
Zhang Hulan and Luo Changqi went to the brokerage firm.
