In front of an inn, a boy dressed in tatters waved a broom in the cold wind and swept the snow in front of the inn.

The broom stood taller than he was on the ground, so he wielded it with great difficulty, his face was red from the cold, and his forehead was covered with a fine layer of sweat.

"Whew...... Finally finished cleaning. ”

He let out a long sigh of relief, picked up his broom and went to the door of the inn, looked down at his dirty clothes, and knocked lightly three times.

The door opened a crack, and the shopkeeper showed his head and looked at him impatiently.

The boy handed the broom in both hands, with a warm smile on his face, "Big brother, the snow has been swept up." ”

"I saw it, I saw it. The shopkeeper took the broom, threw a few copper coins in his palm, and then slammed the door shut. He really couldn't figure out why his shopkeeper was so generous, every time the little beggar came, the shopkeeper would pay the little beggar to do some simple work.

When the boy saw that the door was closed, he bowed slightly and thanked him, and then he put away the copper plate and left the place.

......

In a remote alley, a little girl in tattered clothes sat on the cold stone steps with her knees crossed, curled up in her already petite shape, looking like a kitten shivering in the cold winter.

Afraid of the dark, she didn't like this dark and secluded alley, but she could only stay here, because the high walls on both sides of the alley could block the merciless cold wind.

The copper coins in her pocket were already hot in her pocket, and she closed her eyes and counted them over and over again by feeling, and it seemed to her that time would not seem so long anymore.

Suddenly, a light footstep came from the mouth of the alley, and the girl showed a smile, she didn't have to look to know who it was, the footsteps were all too familiar to her.

The person who came was the boy who had cleared the snow before, he walked up to the girl, spread out his palm to reveal a stack of copper coins, and said with a smile: "No, take it." ”

The girl opened her eyes and lifted her face, although the little face was stained with dust and was too black to see clearly, but her eyes were beautiful, the water was moving, and in this dim alley there was a faint glow like a jewel.

She looked at the copper coin in the palm of her hand in front of her, and instead of taking it, she asked, "Is yours enough?"

The boy didn't expect her to ask so suddenly, and a hint of unnaturalness flashed in his eyes, "The kind shopkeeper gave me a lot today, and I have enough." ”

The girl blinked and said, "Take out all your copper plates and let me take a look." ”

The boy lied just now, and at this moment he didn't dare to look her in the eyes, hesitated for a while, and sighed: "We have enough for one person, it is better than two people who are not enough, not to mention that you are weak, if you can't eat anymore, you will not be able to hold on." ”

"I'm fine, and if you don't make enough friends, they'll beat you!" said the girl stubbornly, a sad look in her big smart eyes.

Seeing that she refused to accept it, the boy was anxious, and the two were lonely and dependent on each other, in his eyes this girl was like his own sister, and he did not want to see her hurt in the slightest.

In that case, it can only be ......

After a long time, a voice full of helplessness sounded in the alley again, "Don't worry, we will be enough." ”

......

The main material for refining the Yuan Dragon Pill, Jing Yuan Cao, had been handed over to Qiu Meng to inquire, but there was still a lot of auxiliary medicinal materials, Ye Yinan went to the warehouse to take a turn, but did not find the medicinal materials he needed, so he planned to leave Ye Mansion and go to the pharmacy in the city to purchase.

The New Year is still a month away, and you can see that many people on the street are buying New Year's goods, and the smoke seems to be booming all of a sudden.

The snow on the ground gradually melted, and it was several times thinner than before, only half a little finger deep, and the surface was mixed with a layer of ice ballast and snow water, and you could feel your shoes wet after walking on it for a while.

Ye Yinan had more than 40,000 taels of silver tickets on his body, and his family was well-off, so he visited several pharmacies, not only bought all the auxiliary medicinal materials for refining Yuanlong Dan, but also bought some medicinal materials that he thought would be used in the future.

Even the package behind him was stuffed, he found a corner where no one was around, and hurriedly stuffed everything into the Sumeru ring.

When he passed by a stall selling hot handicrafts, the smell of hot red oil wafted by, and he sniffed it, only to feel that his gluttonous worm had been seduced.

"Man, bring me a bowl. ”

"Okay, guest officer, wait a minute!"

The stall man shouted, stirred the spoon in the pot, and threw the prepared hand into it.

Seeing that he was busy, Ye Yinan waited in front of the stall, but before he could wait long, he noticed that a boy who seemed to be a little beggar quietly leaned over and reached out into his pocket.

This little beggar has very little movement, if other people really have the Tao, but with his soul power cultivation, if he can be stolen, then there is no need to continue to practice.

He wanted to stop it, but suddenly he noticed a familiar shadow rushing over, so he stood still.

This shadow is Ye Qingyan, she has just returned from Su Mansion, recalling that she bathed and slept in the same pool and bed with Su Nianshuang last night, and an unnatural glow appeared on her face.

The Hundred Flowers Brew was so intoxicating that he had done such a shameful and ridiculous thing.

When the boy was about to get his hand, he suddenly felt a gaze staring at him, and a panic welled up in his heart, this was the first time he had done such a bad thing.

He turned his head slowly, and his heart was really discovered, and there was an extra sister around him at some point, and he swore that this was the most beautiful sister he had ever seen in his life, and she looked like a fairy.

However, this sister did not show the disgust when she saw the thief, nor did she shout to catch the thief, but just looked at herself quietly. He was a little embarrassed and silently withdrew his hand.

"You little thief, how dare you steal my guest's money here!"

Unfortunately, this scene was discovered by the stall guy, who shouted, walked out of the stall quickly, raised the soup spoon and wanted to fight.

At this moment, a thin girl rushed from the snow, stopped between the boy and the boy, opened her weak arms, and bravely protected the boy behind her, but her big lovely eyes were full of timidity.

The guy sighed, his face a little surprised, "And accomplices? ”

The girl hurriedly lowered her head and begged, "Please don't hit him, we haven't eaten for several days, and we really can't help it...... We were wrong, please let us go!"

Ye Yinan looked at her carefully, the depths of the girl's big eyes were very pure and beautiful, but at this time, there was helplessness and fear floating around, and he felt pity for this little sister.

Seeing that the stall guy was going to continue to have a seizure, he waved his hand to stop: "Okay, let me handle this matter." ”
