The old man obviously saw Xiao Shuyue's expression, and could see that although this child was smart, he was not one of those wolf-hearted things outside, and said with a light smile: "Don't sympathize with us! Compared to people who have already given birth to despair outside...... There is at least hope in our hearts!"

Xiao Shuyue was stunned, she obviously found that when the old man said this sentence again, there was a trace of pride in the people inside, which made Xiao Shuyue feel very shocked, the hope in the hearts of such a group of people?

Looking at Xiao Shuyue's shock, the old man smiled and said, "Little girl, now ...... Tell me why you're here!"

Xiao Shuyue turned around and sat down, widened her eyes and asked, "If I ask grandpa, will you answer me?"

The old man shook his head lightly and said, "No, I will make a request, you ask a question, I ask a question, you can choose to answer or not answer, I can choose to answer or not answer, but I guarantee that the number of answers between us is the same, that is...... If the other person doesn't want to answer the question, you can change the question!"

Xiao Shuyue was overjoyed in her heart, and hurriedly nodded, as if she was afraid that the old man would regret it!

Seeing Xiao Shuyue's chick pecking rice and nodding, the old man shook his head helplessly and said, "Now you ask!"

"What's the situation in Ningyang City!" Xiao Shuyue asked with almost no hesitation. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The old man was obviously stunned, and seemed to stare at Xiao Shuyue with some curiosity: "It's really strange! You are a little child, what's the use of asking about the situation in Ningyang City?"

"Grandpa, is that the first question you asked me?" the old man laughed and said, "No!"

Xiao Shuyue made a gesture of please, the big left of the old man was obviously a little surprised, while the middle-aged uncle on the right looked at Xiao Shuyue a little strangely, and it seemed to be no different from the old man's eyes.

The old man looked at Xiao Shuyue's gesture and was slightly surprised, it was the gesture of a scholar or a scholar, it was very standard! If Xiao Shuyue knew what the old man was thinking at this time, he would definitely roll his eyes, hadn't he eaten pork and never seen a pig run? Although she was an underworld lady, she still watched a lot of TV dramas...... Especially...... Costume TV series.

The old man said slowly: "There are four major families in Ningyang City, the Xiao family of the side branch of the Yongning Hou Mansion is mainly engaged in the rice and grain business, the Lin family of the branch of the Taichang History is mainly based on cloth and clothing, and there are also two unknown Xue families! The business of women's jewelry and rouge is mainly the and the safe money village of the Gongsun family all over the Dajing Dynasty! The local officials and official mansions are basically controlled by these big families, so to speak...... Say no!"

Xiao Shuyue smiled, not to mention the four major families, even the two families will definitely not let each other be higher than themselves, even if they try their best to make the other party unable to please them, but compared to the ordinary people living in Ningyang City, these four families are equivalent to the existence of the sky, and they can't afford to offend.

Looking at Xiao Shuyue's thoughtful eyes, the old man smiled lightly: "Now it's time for me to ask you questions!"

Xiao Shuyue came back to her senses, looked at the old man, and nodded calmly.

"Your identity?" The old man slowly spit out four words, but Xiao Shuyue fell into silence, as if he was thinking about whether he wanted to tell his life experience, whether these people in front of him could be trusted!

"I won't answer! Change the question!" After thinking for a long time, Xiao Shuyue said this sentence calmly, when you are away, it is better to be careful with this kind of question, the old man's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he didn't expect Xiao Shuyue to refuse to answer this question that seemed the simplest and actually exposed the most to herself, and couldn't help but raise a step up to the intelligence of this child.

Xiao Shuyue did not shy away from the old man's eyes, but looked at him head-on, which shocked the old man, sighed with emotion, and said softly: "Okay, then...... The second question: Which of the four major families in Ningyang City are you?"

Xiao Shuyue frowned, as if she was a little dissatisfied with the old man's question, but this time she did not refuse to answer this question: "It should belong to the Xiao family at present!"

The old man nodded with satisfaction, Xiao Shuyue pouted, and said dissatisfiedly: "Grandpa is really a bully, and now it's me asking the question again!

The same question as the old man asked Xiao Shuyue just now, the old man smiled, Da Zuo's expression was a little nervous to look at Xiao Shuyue, and the middle-aged uncle on the right looked at Xiao Shuyue with a strange face, and the rest of the four people who followed the old man felt that they would immediately get up and subdue Xiao Shuyue's feelings, but the old man waved his hand gently, the momentum of these people dissipated, Xiao Shuyue breathed a sigh of relief, but looking at the old man's expression was even more excited, this old man's identity is really not simple. This kind of thing of going out to pick up treasures can be encountered by yourself, is it the halo of the legendary protagonist?

"Another question!" After answering the same as Xiao Shuyue, Xiao Shuyue was a little disappointed! Thinking that for the time being, these people should not be able to move themselves, so she asked again: "The relationship between the four major families!"

Now the people sitting next to the old man breathed a sigh of relief!

The old man said with a smile: "The Xiao family is the first of the four major families because of the support of the Yongning Hou Mansion, followed by the Lin family, the Xue family and the Gongsun family, the Xue family seems to have always wanted to be the head of the four major families, so they are against the Xiao family everywhere, the Xiao family has a big business, but there is nothing to do about the Xue family's provocation, the Lin family can be regarded as the Xiao family's doglegs, and the Gongsun family is neutral, and they don't help each other!"

"So...... In fact, the most powerful is the Gongsun family!" Xiao Shuyue said softly, tilting her head, looking serious thinking.

"Why do you say that?" asked the old man.

Xiao Shuyue smiled weirdly: "Is this a problem?"

The old man was stunned, smiled helplessly and nodded, this girl really refused to eat at all.

"The leading family in Ningyang City, no matter what, will be involved in disputes, since the Xue family has moved, how can this Ningyang City be peaceful? But the Gongsun family is obviously in charge of the most important money, but it can stay out of the matter, if it is not for the Gongsun family to be willing to be small, and others control their own destiny, it is the Gongsun family's extraordinary strength and other dependence. Xiao Shuyue said with a light smile.

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a loud noise outside.

It is a group of men dressed up as Huazi, most of them are young adults, Qin Shifan did not despise it, in ancient times, it is not that he can not do it if he doesn't want to be called Huazi, because poverty will not let others give you a job!

About seven or eight people returned to the hut, glanced at Xiao Shuyue, was slightly stunned, and then respectfully blessed the old man, and shouted: "Sir!"

The leader called Hanako to take out the food in his rice bowl to the old man, and there are many of them complete, which is not bad, and the rest of the rice bowls called Hanako are not so many complete foods.

This world ...... In fact, it is not necessary to get only money, food...... It's the same for people in the ghetto.

The leader called Huazi also carried a small bag on his body, he turned sideways and handed the bag to Yun Niang, Yun Niang turned around and poured it into a big pot, that was some rice, very few! Xiao Shuyue could even see that about two handfuls were about the same with his hands, and the old man said softly: "That's our dinner tonight!"

Xiao Shuyue looked at it and was silent!

He got up and bowed to the old man and said, "It's not too early, I should go back! ”

The old man nodded.

Xiao Shuyue walked to the door and looked at the group of beggars who had just returned! and said softly: "Grandpa can let Yun Niang and the children go out to eat next time, and the man can follow Yun Niang and them not far away, it is convenient to protect, you can let you scatter in various places in the rich area, wash your body cleanly, don't be afraid of patched clothes, but don't be too dirty, your hands should be clean, this is the most important thing!" After speaking, Xiao Shuyue finished speaking, and left slowly.

The beggar who had just come back from outside was a little strange, was he still a beggar when he was clean? The old man was lost in thought, watching the little figure fade away, his eyes dim and inexplicable.
