At night, in the city of Hangzhou, the lights are bright, and the singing and dancing are leveling.

In fact, there has been such a saying on the rivers and lakes.

The night of Hangzhou can turn the martial arts into a fight. The water of the West Lake can solve the grudges of the rivers and lakes.

The meaning of the words is very clear.

That is, if the people in the rivers and lakes go to Hangzhou City, if they see the water of the West Lake, they will linger and forget to return, and they will indulge in it.

Of course, the meaning of this passage is only a metaphor and cannot be taken seriously.

However, the night scene in Hangzhou can indeed make people forget their enmity and hatred, and they can't help themselves.

I remember a poet who once wrote such a poem.

"Outside the mountain, the Qingshan Building, the West Lake singing and dancing when to rest, the warm wind smokes the tourists drunk, and Hangzhou is Bianzhou."

The green mountains outside the mountains in the poem, the buildings outside the building in the poem, and the songs and dances that come to the West Lake, all of these are all describing the prosperity and extravagance of the city.

Thinking about back then, why did Nandu Junchen take it lightly? For the sake of it, isn't it the song and dance of the West Lake, as well as the beauties under the city?

And now, a hundred years have passed, and the atmosphere in Hangzhou is still the same, which can still make people intoxicated and sink people's hearts.

Actually, it's ironic.

Because, although the disaster in the south of the Yangtze River has arisen and the people have been displaced, the sound of orchestral chanting in Hangzhou is still coming and going.

In the shadows of the corner of the street, refugees who are unable to get up are hugging each other, trying to use each other's body temperature to dispel the cold of this winter day.

On the brightly lit streets, refugee children who have just eaten rice porridge are still demanding food and clothing from pedestrians on the street at the behest of their parents.

These children are pitiful, but also helpless.

Their parents had already given most of the things issued by the imperial court to their children to eat first, so that they could have the strength to beg for food from the nobles in the city.

It's just that children are still just children after all, and they don't know how to talk and how to beg for food.

They could only look at the pedestrians on the road with their pleading eyes. If pedestrians do not respond, they will follow in small steps and walk a short distance.

The children will only follow passers-by like this, never talking or disturbing.

If they are tired of walking, if they know that passers-by are really tired of following them, then they will stop and look for the next kind person.

So, after seeing a noble person go, after looking at the little friends who were traveling with him, they were already holding the items given by passers-by, and after going back to look for his father, he saw a little girl with unkempt hair and a thin gray dress, but she came alone outside the door of a tavern and looked at the door of the drinkers who came in and out.

She has been walking back and forth on this street for a long time.

Maybe it's the passers-by who think this little girl is too dirty, or maybe it's the beautiful scenery of the West Lake at night that makes the people of Hangzhou in the city lose their kindness during the day.

In short, her hands were already frozen and somewhat stiff, and they were still empty, and no one was willing to give her the slightest handout.

However, she knew she couldn't go back to her parents just yet.

Because, the parents have also been for a long, long time, and have not eaten.

So, she had to bring something back tonight, anything, anything.

However, the stain, and the dust, though they could fluff her cheeks, could not erase the purity in her eyes.

Her eyes are beautiful.

And to have such beautiful eyes at such a young age, she must be a beautiful person when she grows up.

Her eyes are also very clean.

Although the village was destroyed by the Japanese bandits, and although she was already out begging, her eyes did not lose hope in life, nor did she show a sense of inferiority.

Now, she's a little tired from walking.

That's why she stopped in front of this tavern to rest.

On the one hand, she wanted to wait until she regained her strength before going to beg.

On the other hand, she remembered her father telling her that drunken people were prone to squandering their possessions.

That's why she chose to rest in front of the tavern.

She also hoped that a drunken well-wisher could give her some food, or money.

However, things are always unsatisfactory, and life always tends to be helpless.

She had been standing in front of the tavern for a long time, and had sent away many drinkers.

But there is still no one who is willing to give her anything.

So, I saw her take a deep breath and lift her spirits.

She has discovered that there are some things that she still has to fight for on her own.

So, she cheered herself up, and then turned around, ready to look for the next kind person on this street again.

However, just as she regained her confidence, and as soon as she turned around, she saw two dark shadows standing in front of her, blocking her vision.

In fact, it is still very dark on this street at night.

So, after being blocked by the two figures, which was already a faint light, she raised her head and looked at the two of them.

Then, she found out that these two figures were actually two beautiful and moving big sisters.

An older sister is dressed in a white mink coat, with long hair reaching to her waist, and a light powder on her face, which sets off her beautiful face even more moving.

The other sister is also slim, in addition to the pink dress, although she is wearing a cotton jacket, she still can't hide her bumpy figure.

When the little girl saw these two beautiful big sisters appear in front of her eyes, she thought that she was blocking the way of others.

So, she hurriedly trotted two steps to make room for the two.

It's just that she didn't run far.

She just changed her position and came to the side of the two big sisters, wanting to follow them on a journey.

She doesn't want to get in the way of others, and she doesn't know how to ask for it.

She only knows how to follow others, hoping that others will follow her something.

However, just after she changed positions, the two big sisters also turned around and stood in front of her again.

Then, I saw that the woman in the white mink coat did not say anything, but directly took off the coat, squatted down, and draped the warm clothes on the little girl's body.

"Little sister, you're cold, aren't you?" The woman smiled and said.

She actually just made a simple smile.

And this kind of expression, every night, she smiles at the men who love her.

But tonight, her kind smile warmed the little girl's cold heart.

The little girl didn't speak, but looked at the big sister in a daze.

In fact, she had already seen from the smile of her eldest sister that the other party wanted to give her this valuable piece of clothing.

It's just that she doesn't understand why this big sister gave her this clothes that looks so expensive?

Then, when the woman who had taken off her clothes saw that the little girl did not speak, she laughed lightly.

Immediately afterwards, she took off the emerald green bracelet on the wrist of her left hand and stuffed it into the little girl's arms.

"After it, your family will be able to survive this winter."

The woman laughed again.

The little girl saw that the big sister not only gave her her clothes, but also stuffed such a valuable bracelet into her arms.

For a moment, she didn't know what to say.

So, she could only stare at her big clean eyes and look at this big sister.

When the woman saw that the little girl still didn't speak, she didn't pay much attention to it.

She just patted the girl's head lightly and smiled again, "Go ahead, go buy some food."

The little girl's heart was already very happy at this time.

Because, she finally had a harvest this night.

Because, she and her father will not go hungry again.

So, after seeing her hurriedly bow three times to the big sister, she said a word or two shyly, "Thank you~".

After finishing speaking, she smiled gratefully at the big sister.

Then she turned and trotted into a dark aisle facing the street.

………………

After watching the little girl leave, the kind-hearted woman got up.

The beautiful woman beside her, who had not spoken, whispered in puzzlement when she saw that she had given the mink coat to the little beggar.

"Why did my sister give her this coat?"

She didn't understand, in fact, just giving the other party some money was enough.

However, the sister she was talking about did not answer her question.

Maybe it was because there was no cover in thick clothes, which also made her feel a little cold. So, she said, "Go back."

After that, she took her sister's hand and walked into the distance.

………………………………..

……………..

In fact, these two beautiful women are from one of the most famous green buildings in Hangzhou.

Flowers are all over the building.

However, due to the full building of flowers tonight, a martial arts conference of the people of the rivers and lakes is about to be held.

Therefore, on weekdays, the Qinglou, which sings every night, stops all activities and makes room for these righteous people in the rivers and lakes.

And it is precisely because of this that these two top girls who came here in Huamanlou were able to play on the street at the busiest night.
