"Wow, what a cute little friend, what's your name? How old are you? Xu Da pulled Xiao Wanli's arm, squatted down and pinched his little tender face excitedly.

"Flash aside, look at the scared children, won't you lower your voice?" Ai Jia pushed Xu Da aside, and then looked at the little guy who was cowering and hiding behind Ruan Jingshu. Uh-huh, he looks really handsome and cute.

"Xiaojing, where did you get the child, it's so beautiful." He Miao also bent down, gently touched Xiao Wanli's head, and turned to ask Ruan Jingshu.

"It's on the city wall over there, at that time," she briefly told everyone about her acquaintance with Xiao Wanli, and urged the sisters to set off to Xiao Wanli's home. On the way, they bought some rice and noodles, eggs, meat and vegetables to prepare a hearty meal in the evening.

Looking at the coveted gaze in the little guy's big eyes, the sisters all laughed softly.

By the time they arrived at the little one's house, it was completely dark.

It's an unusually remote alley, and Xiao Wanli's house is located at the end of the alley. His house is a typical blue brick and gray tile style ancient house, with two quaint wooden gates on the stairs, and a lion auxiliary knocker on each of them. The crowd passed through a narrow, dimly lit corridor and entered the vestibule.

In the center of the vestibule was a large water tank, which contained some unknown flowers and plants and two goldfish. There is a wing room on the left and right sides of the vestibule, a hall in the middle, and a small backyard and kitchen in the back. Xiao Wanli usually lives in the west wing with his grandfather, and the better room in the east is rented to tourists as a homestay.

Ruan Jingshu and the others put their things in the hall first, and followed Xiao Wanli to the west wing where he and his grandfather lived. Pushing the door in, several people felt a damp mildew coming to their faces, mixed with a very strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine.

The interior is dimly lit, like a candle fire. Several people could faintly hear the intermittent coughing sound from the bed in the back room. Xiao Wanli hurriedly ran to the bed and asked with concern: "Grandpa, how are you?" Did you take your medicine today? With that, he looked hurriedly over the low cabinet beside the bed. Fortunately, there was only an empty bowl on it, which proved that grandpa had already taken medicine, and Xiao Wanli breathed a sigh of relief.

Yu Zihan took the lead in walking to the bed and introduced them to Grandpa Hu: "Old man, we are here to visit the ancient city, and we want to stay with you tonight, and you can collect the accommodation fee normally." ”

Hearing this, Uncle Hu opened his cloudy eyes and looked at the few people in front of him. I saw that my little grandson brought back a group of girls who were unusually young and faced. He was just about to ask a few words, but was interrupted by a sudden cough: "Ahem...... Ahem...... Cough...... Ahem......"

Xiao Wanli was very sensible, and he moved neatly to the old man's back and patted him gently. When the old man finally stopped coughing, he stopped his movements. Uncle Hu was relieved, and then said slowly and weakly: "Girl...... It's not easy for you guys to go out and ...... It's only for one night, not to mention the cost...... Rest assured to stay here! ”

Yu Zihan and several sisters glanced at each other, and suddenly had an idea in their hearts, she said to Uncle Hu gently: "Uncle, anyway, I and a few sisters haven't visited the whole city today, so it's better to stay here for a few more days." How about we visit the ancient city during the day and come back to you for accommodation and dinner in the evening? We will give you the normal fee, do you always say yes? ”

Uncle Hu lowered his head and thought for a while, and finally nodded, so do it! But he apologized that he was not in good health and could not prepare dinner for them. Xu Da listened, patted her chest and said to the uncle: "Don't worry, I'm a chef, you don't have to worry about dinner, we can solve it ourselves!" ”

In this way, after the two sides agreed, Ruan Jingshu and the others withdrew from the West Wing and came to their resting place tonight.

The room on the east side is slightly better, and the musty smell is not so strong. The spacious room has a total of three large beds, and the furnishings are very simple, but the expensive thing is that they are clean and tidy, and the bed linen is also very dry. After the sisters took off their belongings, they rushed to the kitchen together to prepare the evening meal!

Everyone worked together for an hour, and finally made eight dishes and one soup. Xiao Wanli, a ghost, put out some of each dish early, added a bowl of rice, and sent it to Uncle Hu's room. What a good boy with filial piety! Ruan Jingshu and the others cherished this child from the bottom of their hearts.

On the way here, Ruan Jingshu told her sisters about Xiao Wanli's family situation. Therefore, the sisters have a heart of love for this little person.

After a full meal, everyone went back to the east wing to rest. Xiao Wanli was very caring, and prepared hot water early for Ruan Jingshu and them to wash. Alas, this child's meticulous care, how can they make a few of them unhappy with him?

Ruan Jingshu grabbed Xiao Wanli, who was about to turn around and leave, stroked his head gently, and said, "You should be in the third grade, right?" Are you still in school? Hearing this, Xiao Wanli's little face darkened slightly, shook his head and said, "I haven't been to school since my family has no income." ”

Ruan Jingshu straightened his small body and said to him seriously: "No matter what, you must go to school, don't worry, my sister will definitely find a way to let you go back to school." ”

Xiao Wanli's eyes rekindled a look of hope, and finally nodded firmly to Ruan Jingshu.

After sending Xiao Wanli away, Ruan Jingshu lay on the bed and couldn't calm down for a long time. She wants to contact the local social welfare center as soon as possible to get funding for Xiao Wanli. In the long run, it will not be good for his healthy growth, especially since he is such a caring and sensitive child.

After making a decision in her heart, Ruan Jingshu relieved her heart and prepared to wash and rest. After a busy day's work today, she finally felt a little tired.

Well, after a good night's sleep, the sisters woke up early. This is a good habit developed in the army, and when the time comes, it will automatically wake up. Xu Da wanted to make a simple breakfast for everyone, but when she entered the kitchen, she saw that a pot of white porridge had already been cooked in the pot, accompanied by a few dishes unique to the ancient city, and fried a few poached eggs, the breakfast was simple and nutritious.

No need to ask, it must be Xiao Wanli's masterpiece. This breakfast really warmed the hearts of Ruan Jingshu and the others, and they were once again impressed by the thoughtfulness of this child.

Hey, from getting up to now, why haven't you seen this little guy? A few people asked Uncle Hu to find out that he had gone into the ancient city early to peddle small commodities, hoping to supplement some household expenses. Speaking of this, the old man's face was full of shame, and he secretly sighed that his body had dragged down his little grandson.

Ruan Jingshu and the others hurriedly comforted the old man a few words, and saw the food prepared by the little guy on the low cabinet for the old man, so they said goodbye to him and went in the direction of the ancient city.
