The carriage is getting faster and faster, and it really doesn't have as bumpy as yesterday! Lin Zhuyu was also happy in his heart, and at the same time pondered the problem of carriage transformation.

Mo Xiu found a few boring words from time to time to chat with Lin Zhiyu, and Nangu gradually got used to the way her young lady and Mo Xiu's son got along, and the trip along the way was quite pleasant.

Seeing that he was about to arrive in Jiangnan, he didn't rush to leave this evening, but found a hotel early, Lin Zhiyu also wanted to take a rest, after all, he would be able to see his father and brother tomorrow, and he couldn't still have a pair of panda eyes!

Here, Lin Yule leisurely thought that he could see his father and brother tomorrow, and the second aunt who was far away in the capital had been idle for half a month and stayed at home. Even the affairs of the butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion let go of Lin Fu to study, and he was like disappearing, saying to the outside world that in the early stages of pregnancy, because of the instability of the fetus, he stayed in the house all day long.

After dinner, Nangu was busy sorting out her luggage, and Lin Zhiyu was wandering around the house alone, and she couldn't be idle for a while. All I could do was find a way to have fun and spend the long night. I remembered that when I was eating in the restaurant just now, I heard the people at the next table talk that there was a full moon lantern festival in this waterfront city tonight.

Lin Zhuyu threw himself into the full moon lantern festival, thinking if he could go out for a walk. When I told Nangu, Nangu said that there were many people and mixed eyes, and I was afraid that there was an accident. Seeing Nangu's opposition, Lin Zhuyu went to Mo Xiu.

Mo Xiu agreed with great interest, so Nangu didn't want to say anything more, so Lin Zhiyu and Nangu, Mo Xiu took Mo Huai and the four of them out of the door.

Because the top hotel is in the middle of the city, it is not far from the market of the full moon lantern festival, and it is not a few steps away.

Because it was already dark, I saw red lanterns hanging on both sides of the main street near the water, bright and bright, accompanied by a hazy moonlight, decorating the entire market. And the citizens of the city also gathered in twos and threes, and some parents even took their children out to watch the lantern festival, which was a harmonious and happy scene.

Lin Zhiyu was also infected by this atmosphere, and consciously became a twelve-year-old girl who did not disgrace the world, running and jumping towards the stalls and shops in the market, which was also suitable for the occasion.

Mo Xiu only felt at first that the girl in front of him did not have the dignified and virtuous lady of a rich and noble disciple at all, and she was knowledgeable! Later, I thought about it after all, I have been in the Prime Minister's Mansion since I was a child, and I have probably never seen the street market outside, so I let go of my heart!

After a while, Nangu had a few more strings of sugar gourds in her hands, Lin Zhiyu still held a string of sugar man paintings in her hands, and saw that there were masks sold in front of her, so she ran forward happily, and fell in love with a tiger head mask at a glance, took it and put it on her face, leaned into Mo Xiu's chest and said, "Is it good-looking?" ”

Mo Xiu looked at the little girl in front of him dotingly: "It's good-looking!" "I just don't know if it's to say that the girl is good-looking or the mask is good-looking.

"Boss, I'm going to ask for this!" Lin Zhiyu casually took a few money from his purse and handed it to the boss, and then continued to walk forward with a mask.

At the beginning of the lanterns, the crowd was bustling, and gradually there were more people, and the small merchants and vendors began to shout.

Lin Zhuyu was a little tired from shopping, so he gradually walked towards the place where there were few people on the street. There were one or two screams of children in his ears, but they were very vaguely inaccurate, until a life-saving voice came, Lin Zhiyu knew that this was not his auditory hallucination, and followed the source of the sound and walked into a remote dark alley. Mo Xiu naturally heard it, and the three of them followed Lin Zhiyu in.

Sure enough, at the corner of the alley, a lone light was on, in stark contrast to the red lights and green water of the main street, and what was happening here seemed to be out of place with the lantern festival outside.

Two big men with wide heads and fat ears were beating a little boy with bamboo sticks, and there was already a lot of blood on the ground, and one of them was so angry that he got up on his feet. And what about the little boys? I didn't know how to resist, I just cared about holding my head, desperately trying to dodge the bamboo stick, rolling around on the ground, crying out for help in my mouth, but my heart was already lacking, and my voice was weak! However, the bamboo sticks that hit the little boy did not stop at all.

"Hey, what are you doing? How can you hit a child like this? Seeing this scene, Lin Zhiyu rushed forward without the slightest hesitation, and when he saw that the big man did not stop, he stretched out his hands to protect the little boy.

Nangu saw her young lady rushing forward and hurriedly followed. And Mo Xiu stayed where he was at this time and didn't move.

In a modern society governed by the rule of law, not to mention such violence on the street, even a fight is rare, seeing that this is about to kill people, Lin Zhuyu's natural reaction is to protect the little boy first, and he can't take care of himself so much.

The two big men saw that a little girl suddenly rushed out, and it was difficult to start for a while, so they stopped the bamboo stick and pestle in their hands, and the taller man said: "Little girl, don't be nosy!" ”

"What did he do, who is not a saint or a sage? How do you want to treat a child? Lin Zhiyu's innocent and lively appearance just now was completely absent at this time, and there was a terrifying aura on his body, as if these two big men dared to do it again, their sharp eyes and terrifying aura could kill people. The moment he protected the boy under him, Lin Zhuyu thought that he had just escaped death from his second aunt a few days ago.

The tall man seemed to be really inspired by Lin Zhuyu's breath, and another man replied and said to Lin Zhuyu: "Hmph, this white-eyed wolf who can't be raised is deserving to be killed!" After a pause, he said to the little boy curled up under Lin Zhiyu: "The master said, there are no guys stealing chickens and dogs in the store, if they are killed, forget it!" If God is virtuous, let him go where he does not die, and a slut is a slut after all! ”

The tall man took the bamboo stick and said to the other big man to leave.

Seeing that the two of them were far away, Lin Zhiyu put down the little boy in his arms, and the little boy was already dying at this time.

The two big men had already walked away, but Mo Xiu hadn't come back to his senses yet, and carefully recalled the young lady's sentence just now, "If a person is not a sage, who can do nothing", he was only surprised to find that although his young lady was young, her mind was enough to compare with Master Huizhi of Haifu Temple!

Mo Xiu is not the only one who has such feelings, only to see a black shadow reflected in the full moon light in the corner of the alley, at this time he is also savoring the "people are not sages, who can do nothing", with such insight, I think she is also a peerless woman who is a goddess, such a woman should be born as a concubine! I just don't know what kind of face is under the mask?

Mo Xiu hadn't come to his senses yet, but Lin Zhiyu couldn't wait, so he randomly found a few pills from his cuffs, and didn't know if it was right or not, so he fed the little boy first: "Mo Huai, take him to the hotel." ”

Because the boy was injured, Lin Zhiyu didn't dare to let him move too much, and the group walked very slowly, and when he returned to the hotel, the night was getting deeper.

Simply treated the boy's wound and placed him on the bed, while Nangu waited on the side.

The night is getting deeper...

Early the next morning, because she was worried about the little boy's injury, Lin Zhiyu got up early in the morning and saw that the child was still awake.

When the little boy saw Lin Yuyu coming in, he hurriedly got out of bed and prepared to kowtow. Lin Zhuyu looked at the little boy carefully.

With dark skin and slender limbs, he is not short, but he looks malnourished! The little boy's eyes revealed a sense of fortitude and strength, Lin Zhiyu did not see half of the impurities and evil thoughts from his eyes, but self-esteem and self-respect, neither humble nor arrogant!

"What happened yesterday that those two big men did this to you?" Lin Zhuyu was interested.

"Miss Hui, I was helping at the master's house yesterday and stole the pastries in the store." Speaking of stealing words, the little boy's face was flushed, but he didn't lie.

"Then why did you steal the pastries from the store?" Lin Zhuyu then asked.

"The new shopkeeper is always harsh on food, and I... I haven't eaten for 3 days..."Speaking of this, the little boy seemed very aggrieved, and his eyes were red.

Lin Zhuyu roughly understood the ins and outs of the matter, and he was a genuine child, but he was buried in the store.

"Do you have parents? Yesterday your lord's house quit you! ”

"I was an orphan and used to beg for a living. Later, when the lord saw that I was honest, he allowed me to come and help and take care of the day's food. Now the family doesn't want me, so I can only go back to the City God Temple. The little boy replied truthfully.

Lin Zhiyu saw that the little boy had a pitiful background, and thought that he was similar to himself, so he sympathized and had the idea of leaving the little boy behind. only asked: "If you are asked to follow me in the future, are you willing?" ”

The boy immediately kowtowed: "Miss, it was you who saved me, I am a cow and a horse in this life, and I wish to repay Miss with a grass title in the next life!" ”

"You get up and speak first, since you follow me, then you will be my family in the future, whether you are rich or poor, bear it together!"

What Lin Zhuyu thought in his heart was that this little boy was the first real family member he had crossed over.

"By the way, what's your name?" Lin Zhuyu thought of it and asked.

"In the past, the main family called me Heiwa, and I am 14 this year."

"This name is not good, you will use my surname if you follow, say goodbye to the past, and have a single name! Lin Bai, your new name. ”

"Well, good," the little boy naturally rejoiced.

In this way, Lin Zhiyu accepted her first little follower after the crossing, that is, her big assistant in business in the future!
