In the space, Liu Ximing looked at the vegetables in his eyes and was a little worried, before he was under pressure, he just thought of the short growth cycle of vegetables, and Li Biao's experience, he hurriedly decided to grow vegetables, this decision is not wrong now, after all, he successfully solved his own debt crisis, but it is indeed not the best choice.

Liu Ximing had planted vegetables on the balcony before, how could he have thought that the effect of growing vegetables in the space was so good, these ten acres of land suddenly got more than 50,000 catties of vegetables, according to their current speed of selling vegetables, it would take half a year to sell out!

Hey, I have to think about what to do when I go back.

The next day, Liu Ximing and Li Biao went to Fucheng as usual, and after delivering the food to Zuixianju, the shopkeeper Zhao said to Liu Ximing: "Ximing, don't send it tomorrow, it's almost the New Year, and the store will be closed, so come back after the year." Liu Ximing naturally agreed.

How do you know that when he arrived at the county school, the house manager also told him to come back after the New Year after sending it today, Liu Ximing remembered that he didn't know much about the New Year's customs of the Meng Dynasty, and hurriedly asked Li Biao.

Li Biao said: "The twenty-fourth day of the lunar month is the sacrificial stove, and every household has to sacrifice to the god of the stove, and it is time to close down." ”

Liu Ximing couldn't cry or laugh, it is estimated that Liu Chen was so troubled by Zhang Yucheng yesterday that he forgot to remind himself.

Thinking that since the New Year was approaching, he should also buy some New Year's goods and go back, so he took Li Biao to walk around the city.

The New Year is coming, the atmosphere of this Shunqing Mansion has gradually begun to lively, people come and go on the street, children of all sizes are jumping up and down to look at the shops selling sugar and can't walk, even some poor and weak families are trying to squeeze out some loose money to buy some things for the New Year, the shops in the city suddenly have more people, and people are carrying large bags and small bags all of a smiling.

Liu Ximing and Li Biao walked all the way from the north of the city to the south of the city, passing by the market, a farmer carrying a litter of small milk dogs on his back was selling there, thinking that the family had just been robbed, it was better to raise a few dogs to take care of the home, Liu Ximing walked over and talked.

"Uncle, dare to ask you how to sell this dog?"

The peasant was an old man full of wrinkles, wearing a narrow-sleeved blue and black shirt, and grinned honestly: "Housheng, you have vision, my dog is a good breed, not expensive, fifty yuan a piece." ”

Li Biao pouted there and said, "Uncle, you are selling too expensive, and others will sell for thirty or forty wen at most!" ”

"How can you say that, my female dog is stronger than the average, and there are more people in the village who want it, that is, there is no money in your hand when the New Year is approaching, otherwise where would you buy it!"

Liu Ximing waved his hand at Li Biao, carefully observed the litter of puppies, and knew that the old man should not be lying, although it is just a rural dog, that is, the Chinese pastoral dog is often called, but it is really spiritual. One with black face and some white hair and one with a golden body made him look very liked, and when he reached out, the other puppies all hid back, but these two rubbed against his hands as if they had a heart.

Hehe, it seems that you have a relationship with the Sprinkle family!

Liu Ximing looked at Huanxi, and didn't bargain anymore, and bought them, these two puppies may have sensed that he was the future master, and stretched out their little tongues to Tian his palm.

In the past, I didn't dare to raise a dog for fear of trouble in modern times, but I didn't expect to become a shovel official in the Meng Dynasty, Liu Ximing was happy in his heart, and continued to pull Li Biao to wear it in various stores, and after a while, the back basket was full of large and small New Year's goods, thinking of the two small ones in the family, he also bought some caramel and pastries.

Seeing that he had unconsciously wandered to the south of the city, the two of them saw that they had almost bought things, and were about to go back, Liu Ximing had sharp eyes, and saw a group of little beggars running out of the city with something, and there was the little girl he saved in the silk shop last time.

Liu Ximing was curious, and silently followed them out of the city, and when they followed them all the way to a dilapidated house outside the city, the group of little beggars ran in with cheers, shouting at their companions inside.

Liu Ximing walked closer and looked in along the broken wall, only to see that the original owner of the house didn't know how long he had walked, several walls of the courtyard had begun to fall bricks, the yard was overgrown with weeds, and half of the house inside had collapsed.

More than a dozen children, large and small, sat around the yard, and a slightly older teenager stood in the middle who was distributing food to them one by one.

At this moment, several children saw someone outside the house, and immediately stood up alertly, and whispered a few words, and the boy and several older boys gathered a group of small ones in an arc.

When they saw that Liu Ximing was only about the same age as themselves, these children breathed a sigh of relief, but when they saw the tall Li Biao behind them, they became a little nervous. The young man who had just handed out the steamed buns asked with a vigilant face with a stick, "What do you want to do?" ”

Before Liu Ximing could speak, the little girl among the little beggars saw him last time, her eyes lit up, and she pulled the young man and whispered a few words.

The young man listened to the little girl's whisper, with a look of surprise on his face, looked at Liu Ximing, bowed and bowed: "It turns out that the son saved the sister last time, I am really grateful!" ”

Liu Ximing was surprised to see that he was quite polite in his speech and demeanor, but he didn't think that there were people who knew how to be polite among this group of beggars, and he should have read books, but he didn't know why he had fallen to such a point.

Liu Ximing has always been a man who respects me a foot and I am a foot, and he also bowed his hand at the moment: "It's just a gesture, the pair of men and women that day were too tyrannical, and they did it out of righteous indignation." ”

After another pause, he said: "Under Liu Ximing, this is my partner Li Biao, can we talk in detail in the hospital?" ”

The young man's face turned red, but he was rude, and hurriedly beckoned all the beggars to welcome Liu Ximing and the others in, and introduced them to Liu Ximing one by one.

Only then did Liu Ximing know that his name was Yu Yongkai, and the little girl was his sister Yu Qiaoman, as well as Mu Hong, Li Ze and more than a dozen other people.

When he entered the courtyard, he saw a few broken quilts in the corner of the broken house, a broken pot on the side of the eaves, and a dozen of their children unkempt, knowing that they were indeed in distress.

As a modern person, Liu Ximing has seen too many professional begging professionals who beg during the day and chic at night, and he has long been extremely disgusted with these people. Now that I have arrived in the Meng Dynasty, although I saw them really pitiful before, I still have some distrust in my heart, so I specially came over to verify and verify.

Now that the tragic situation of these children is confirmed, it is self-evident to see a few five or six-year-old children hiding behind the eldest and looking at themselves pitifully.

He thought about it and put the basket down, took out two boxes of pastries from it and handed them to the little girl next to the young man, while saying: "I came in a hurry today, there are only two boxes of pastries as a gift to the door, please accept them, and prepare a generous gift next time!" ”

The girl looked at the two boxes of pastries with a look of longing in her eyes, but still looked at the boy hesitantly.

The young man heard Liu Ximing say this, and when he saw that the sincerity on his face did not seem to be fake, and then looked at the longing in the eyes of his sister and a group of children, he nodded and motioned for his sister to accept it, and bowed deeply and said: "I am waiting for a beggar, and I am treated coldly on weekdays, but today Liu Gongzi does not think that we are lowly, and I really don't know how to repay him!" ”

Liu Ximing saw that he always looked like a little adult, and he was a little funny in his heart, but he also respected him for always being polite and polite even if he was poor, and this group of little beggars was obviously headed by him, and they were even more curious about him.

He and Li Biao also found a clean place to sit down, the two little milk dogs they bought just now came out of their clothes, and barked twice in a milky voice, and a group of children were all attracted to the past, Liu Ximing laughed, put the two little guys on the ground, and let them tease them, but he talked with Yu Yongkai.

After chatting for a while, Liu Ximing finally got a general idea of their situation, this Yu Yongkai is from Xuzhou Mansion, his family is also a scholar, and his father is a child, so he knows a little about etiquette and knows some words.

Who would have thought that a few years ago, the Tusi rebellion in the south of Sichuan, in order to suppress the rebellion, officers and soldiers from all over the country gathered in southern Sichuan, such as Xuzhou Mansion, these places are often today's officials and soldiers, tomorrow the thieves will come, and both sides will treat ordinary people as fat sheep. Yu Yongkai's family was ransacked by a group of defeated officers and soldiers, in order to hide people's eyes, this group of officers and soldiers slaughtered all his family, and only he ran out with his sister.

As soon as he talked about this, Yu Yongkai's eyes turned red again.

Liu Ximing was silent for a moment, could only comfort a few words, and then asked, "I see that this house is badly damaged, why don't you find a safer place?" ”

Yu Yongkai smiled bitterly: "It's not that I don't want to wait, there are several groups of beggars in this city, and most of us are children here, where can we fight for them!" ”

"Then why don't you join them?"

"Hehe, the son doesn't know, those beggars often maim and injure the young in order to ask for more money, or often look pitiful when they are hungry, how dare I join them."

Liu Ximing was helpless, he had just paid off his debts, and he wanted to help them but he was not enough, seeing that it was not early, he counted five hundred dollars and handed it to Yu Yongkai and said: "It's not early, today the two of us will say goodbye first, now it's almost the New Year, some money here should be regarded as New Year's money for them, you take good care of it, don't let outsiders see it!" ”

Yu Yongkai didn't know that this was taking care of their self-esteem, and he was very moved in his heart, and pulled more than a dozen children to thank them.

As a modern person, Liu Ximing is still deeply influenced by the idea of equality for everyone, but he didn't expect to let the other party have so many ideas, and he didn't say more, and the two hurried back to Zhangjiawan.
