The boy is hard to handle

"Second Master, shall we go by car or on foot?"

"It's not far away, just walk, and I happen to be scattered too."

The two walked out of the mansion side by side. Although the weather was cold, the number of people on the street did not decrease at all. Maybe it was the Chinese New Year coming soon, but it looked more lively than usual——

Those who sell fireworks, those who sell couplets with blessings, those who sell sausages and bacon——

Those who set up stalls, those who push carts, those who carry shoulder poles - there are more people around than in that shop!

Adults bring their children, and when they are tired from shopping, they buy a bunch of candied haws, then drink a pot at the tea stand to rest their feet, and when the pot of tea is finished, their strength returns. All the small bags were full before heading back home.

"If you want to say that it's lively, it has to be the capital city, and the atmosphere outside the customs is not so strong—"

Xu Yu looked around, and when he met the juggler walking on stilts, he stretched his neck to take a look.

"Look at your appearance of a country bumpkin entering the city. It's a pity that Shi Chu didn't follow, otherwise I will laugh at you again."

Xu Yu smiled, didn't care, but said——

"Grandfather, when we return home later, let's walk through West Lane Alley, I heard that there is a little girl who can write books from the ground—"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and gestured, "The big wolf hair that is half the height of a person is held in a small hand. It is so domineering. Let's go over and have a look. I, I haven't seen it yet——"

Xu Yu smiled and scratched his head in embarrassment.

"There are a lot of books written from the ground, but I have never seen one written by a little girl."

Xue Yanrong nodded, "It's good to go and have a look. If it really catches your eye, then please come to the mansion and let mother have fun too."

After talking, the two continued to move forward until they reached the entrance of the next street——

"All right, sir, all right—"

The man who spoke was wrapped in a patched padded jacket, with his neck tucked in and his hands in his hands, and he kept selling himself——

"This girl can't support her anymore. If you give me some money, she will be your family!"

It was a very cold day, and the little girl didn't even have any thicker clothes on her body. She was wearing a single jacket and trousers, and the cloth shoes under her feet were also torn, and her messy hair was knotted. Numb, empty eyes unable to catch any focus.

Xu Yu stopped suddenly when he heard the words, and turned his head away, with an unbelievable expression on his face——

"At the feet of the emperor, he actually sells a child?!"

Then he pulled the straw off the little girl's head——

"How can you sell your child? No matter how poor you are, there is always a way. You sold her, but you can never get her back!"

The man didn't speak, but put his hands in his hands and looked Xu Yu up and down, maybe he saw that he was dressed in ordinary clothes, without gold and jade locks in front of him, and he didn't look like a dignitary at all, his face was dark. Immediately, he became disdainful, waved his hand, picked up the straw on the ground again, and inserted it back on the little girl's head——

"Whether you buy it or not, don't get in the way here!"

Xu Yu took out his purse from his sleeve, and poured out all the trivial money inside——

"I won't buy it, but I'll give you money, you get through the current difficulties first, don't sell your child anymore!"

The man looked at the money that Xu Yu could wrap with one hand, and immediately showed a contemptuous expression on his face, shaking his legs and feet, and said——

"You only have a few coins. If you don't care about the last meal, you will starve to death sooner or later. Either you can be generous and buy her, or don't stand in the way here!"

"I only have so much on me—" Xu Yu stood there, suddenly at a loss.

At this time, Xue Yanrong, who had been silent by the side, suddenly stood up, walked straight to the man who sold the child, and asked coldly——

"How much silver do you want?"

At this moment, the man's face suddenly changed, and after he changed his impatient appearance, he looked at Xue Yanrong's valuables from head to toe, and greedy eyes flickered in his eyes in an instant, and he shrank his neck, Flatteringly leaned over——

"Grandpa, you are also kind-hearted. I don't want much, just 20 taels."

Xue Yanrong suddenly laughed——

"Ten taels?"

Then he took a step back and looked down at the little girl in front of him——

"It's only five taels of silver to buy a seven or eight-year-old child. At your price, I can buy four."

When the man heard this, he was afraid that Xue Yanrong would leave, so he hurriedly grabbed her arm, but the next moment, he was frightened by Xue Yanrong's sharp gaze and let go of his hand in a hurry——

"Grandpa, don't look at her now. She will grow up after two years of raising her. This girl is easy to raise. Don't look at her thin body. She is full of strength. She can do anything, such as carrying water, chopping firewood, washing clothes and cooking. , but she still ate less—"

As he spoke, he tugged his sleeves again, and wiped the little girl's face vigorously, revealing a wretched look, "When you grow up, it's not all up to you to raise her in the house~~~"

"Are you her real father?! You actually said such things!"

Xu Yu stared and raised his fists. If Xue Yanrong hadn't stopped him, he would definitely have started fighting.

But the man not only didn't feel ashamed, on the contrary, he stretched his neck and raised his voice confidently——

"Little brother, you can't afford it. The old man can afford it. I sell my own child. It doesn't hurt the sky or the courtesy. Hit me? It's not worth it!"

"Shameless!"

"All right!"

Xue Yanrong shook his head at Xu Yu, pushed him aside, turned his head towards the man, and stretched out his hand——

"It's only five taels, sell it if you sell it, and pull it down if you don't sell it."

The man was stunned immediately, his eyes that were as big as sesame seeds and mung beans seemed to be closed even though they were wide open——

"You—are you kidding me?"

"How could it be a joke, I'm doing business with you." Xue Yanrong had a serious expression.

"But you have chopped too much! At least you can add some more, I will be a big girl who can give birth in the future!"

The man had just finished speaking, but the little girl beside him trembled twice for some reason. Seeing this, the man pressed her on her shoulder——

Afterwards, he and Xue Yanrong got into a bad relationship——

"Even if you don't pity me, you should pity this child. When her mother gave birth to her, her blood collapsed, and she went to see Lord Yan before she came up. If she knew underground, the child she gave birth to without her life is only worth five taels I'm afraid I won't be able to cast money on the Meng Po Bridge!"

After saying that, he even wiped away his tears, "Look at what you're wearing, either silk or jade, you can tell at a glance that you are the young master of a rich family, 20 taels of silver is nothing more than a pot of wine and a dish to you. For those of us poor families, it is possible to survive!"

Xue Yanrong lowered his head, the expression on his face didn't change at all because of what the man said, and he didn't even frown——

"Don't talk about life and death with me here, sir, I never believe in ghosts and gods, and - I have money, but I am not a fool who allows you to deceive me."

"How do you say that, I, I have never cheated you—"

Xue Yanrong touched the emerald finger on his thumb, and said in a cold voice——

"To be honest, I gave you five taels of silver—"

After saying that, he suddenly stretched out his hand and forcefully knocked off the man's hand that was pressing on the little girl's shoulder. The next moment the child couldn't help coughing, his eyes were so red that he shed tears. It must have been held back for a long time. Time, due to the man's coercion, did not dare to cough out.

"She has such a bad cough. When I buy it back, I don't know how much money it will cost to treat her illness. If she dies in the middle of the journey, where can I go to reason? Can you still wait for me here on North Third Street? Morning Run away and disappear!"

Xue Yanrong suddenly pursed his lips into a smile——

"Based on this, do you think I gave too much of the five taels of silver?"

Seeing that the man couldn't hide it, he turned his anger on the child and was about to hit him, but Xue Yanrong stopped him again——

"It's okay if I hit my own child?!"

"It's okay to beat your own child, but you haven't told me whether to sell it or not? If you don't sell it, you can beat it as you like. I don't care if you beat her to death. But if you sell her, then she is mine. Beating her is hitting me." , I will not let it go, you have to think clearly before you start."

The man choked on what Xue Yanrong said, and opened his mouth for a long time. Not only was he speechless, but he felt that what he said was very reasonable——

He looked at the child in front of him who was still coughing, and the raised hand finally landed on his lap——

Angrily said——

"Come on! Count me as unlucky!" Then he stretched out his hand to Xue Yanrong, "Give me five taels, and the person belongs to you."

"make a deal."

After speaking, Xue Yanrong took out five taels of silver from his sleeve——

When I was about to hand over the money and deliver the goods——

A clear voice suddenly sounded in the back of his head——

"I can't give it!"

The next moment, Xue Yanrong's arm and the money in his hand were pulled back.

Turning his head away, eyes full of surprise——

It was a girl!

The small face like a powder puff has a pair of willow-leaf curved eyebrows, and the big almond eyes are pure and innocent, but they hang up at the end of the eyes, inexplicably adding a kind of seductive meaning, but because of the age She is still young, and her face has not yet opened, so the taste is not obvious. With such a cold-eyed and terrifying look, it feels a little bit filled with smallness. The exquisite nose and small lips, the more serious they are Seriously, the more it makes people think it's a joke, all in all, it makes people less afraid——

Xue Yanrong was stunned for a moment, but before she could speak, the man who sold the child yelled angrily——

"Where did the girl's film come from! Get out of here!"

The woman wasn't afraid, but she didn't know where the courage came from. She stood there in a daze, but she didn't get discouraged by the harsh voice. She just stared at Xue Yanrong, and said anxiously——

"You can't give him money! He's a human tooth!"

After saying that, another girl with flower bud hair came running from behind, she looked about the same age as the one in front of her, but she looked like a maid again——

Sure enough, as soon as he arrived, he hurriedly tugged on the woman's sleeve and kept shaking his head——

"Miss, don't say it, don't say it—"

"Oops! Let go!"

The woman knocked off the little maid's hand, and immediately raised her neck towards the man who spoke so viciously——

"You, don't think you have a loud voice, I...I'm afraid of you! To tell you the truth! I've been staring at you for a long time, tell me! Was it you who sold children on East Fourth Street last month?! "

The man's expression suddenly became panicked——

"You, don't talk nonsense!"

"I'm not talking nonsense! I see it for real. At that time, you sold a boy, but this time it became a girl again? I dare you to raise a lot of wives and concubines, and you earn money by giving birth to children, right? ?!"

"You, you, you—how bad my child is!"

"There are a lot of children, right?" The woman stared, "Okay, let me ask you again—you said you were her biological father, so why did you wear a cotton jacket and cotton trousers, but she didn't?! If you are really her biological father Father, how can you let her be exposed to the cold in the cold wind?!"

The man was speechless after being refuted, his eyes were looking around——

At this moment, more and more people were watching, and many of them began to whisper and point.

"You have nothing to say?!"

"me--"

The man lowered his head, and before he could speak——

Pointing at him, the young woman suddenly raised her voice——

"He's running! Catch him!"

Sure enough, before the words fell, the man was about to run away, but because of the woman's preemptive strikes and Xu Yu's good skill, he didn't even lift his legs, and he was immediately pressed to the ground and rubbed.

"You are so powerful, how did you know he was going to run away?" Xu Yu looked at the woman in front of him and asked puzzledly, she didn't look like she knew kung fu.

The woman pursed her lips, with a look of seeing through everything——

"It's not easy. He held the child's shoulder with one hand, moved one leg back, and turned his body slightly to the side. What is it that he wants to run? When the time comes to push the person forward and block the way, no matter how fast his legs and feet are." Some, before they ran away without a trace."

As he spoke, he glanced at the man on the ground again, and couldn't help but spit——

"Bah! It's not a good thing, just wait for your prison meal!"

This move of hers startled the little maid who was following her, she immediately jumped out and covered her mouth——

"Hey! My lady, what are you doing?! It's still on the street, can you keep it up?"

When her maid said this, the woman who was still filled with righteous indignation just now was like a deflated ball, not only pursed the corners of her mouth, but kept shrinking her shoulders, frowning and muttering——

"I'm not mad at this bad guy yet."

Then he raised his eyes and looked at Xue Yanrong——

"Next time, you have to keep your eyes open. How many good people can sell children on this street? Those who say they are real fathers are definitely not!"

Xue Yanrong squinted his eyes. He has always been educating others by himself when he grew up. When did he be educated by others? Besides, she was such a yellow-haired girl. She moved her mouth and was about to say something, but was interrupted again——

"You don't have to thank me, just pay attention later."
