There is a county lord staying in the official post, and the guards are more than double as before, and the garrison has sent 500 generals to guard here, and the officials of the government cannot get close, so they can only drive away the people who want to see the county lord's demeanor from a distance.

Shen Tong was the person next to the county lord, and the sergeant would not stop her, but Han Wuji, who was carrying A Shao on his back, was stopped.

Xu An was about to explain with a smile on his face, when he happened to see the grandmother next to the county lord of Yining coming over, that grandmother was full of martial arts and had followed Shen Tong from the secret passage to Fan's house.

Seeing the three children brought by Shen Tong, Mama asked, "Miss Shen, ...... they are?"

"They are the orphans of the fallen soldiers, the child has a fever, and the doctor prescribed a prescription to raise it for two days." not only said the identity of the children, but also said that the children did not have a serious disease, so there was no need to worry about passing the illness to the county lord.

Mama said: "Yesterday, the county lord also mentioned these orphans, I was very distressed, let them in, I asked people to arrange a room, let them live with the guards." ”

"Just let them live with us." Xu An said busily.

Mama knew Xu An and Lu You, and when they entered the secret passage that day, they also went together, and they were considered to have shared hardships with each other.

"That's fine, it's this little girl......" she looked at her little sister.

"No, I want to be with them, I can take care of Ah Shao." The little sister hurriedly said, clutching Han Wuji's sleeve tightly, for fear that someone would separate them.

Mama is a little embarrassed, this girl is seven or eight years old.

"It's okay, so be it, these days, the three of them depend on each other." Shen Tong said.

Mama looked at the three skinny children, her heart was sour, and she didn't say anything more.

The county lord of Yining had just sent away the ladies who had come to visit, and was lazily leaning on the Xiangfei chair, when he heard that Shen Tong was back, he hurriedly said to the maid: "Go and invite Tongtong over to see what she bought back from the street." ”

A girl is a girl, and she can't fit her things in ten cars, but she still has to worry about the things on the street.

Shen Tong came in empty-handed, and the county lord of Yining was very disappointed: "Didn't you bring anything back?" ”

"Bring back three children, one of them is still sick, Fang Fei has already gone to decoction medicine." Shen Tong sat down on the pestle opposite the county lord of Yining, and picked up the fan on the long table to play.

"This is a spring fan embroidered by the young lady of the county magistrate, there are twelve handles, you pick a few, and it looks good when you go to the banquet." Before the county lord of Yining finished speaking, she laughed out loud, she didn't remember that Shen Tong had used a fan, so this fan was given to Shen Tong, that is, to pretend to be a lady.

Shen Tong didn't smile, straightened his face, shook the small fan lightly, and asked stiffly, "Is that so?" ”

"Hahaha." The county lord of Yining shook her feet with a smile, she suddenly stopped laughing, and looked at Shen Tong with wide eyes.

"What does the county lord see me doing?" Shen Tong asked curiously.

"Tongtong, you are really beautiful like this, and you are also noble, you keep your hair long and comb a double screw, you are the most beautiful in Xi'an City." The county lord of Yining leaned over as he spoke, and tugged at Shen Tong's hair.

Shen Tong's hair hung down on her shoulders, and she still looked like a little girl.

After living for two lifetimes, no one has ever praised her like this, Shen Tong grinned, revealing a row of snow-white and neat teeth.

"Don't laugh, smile without showing teeth."

The county lord of Yining hurriedly corrected it, but it was too late, Shen Tong laughed, so the county lord of Yining also laughed together, and when the mother came back from outside, she heard the laughter in the house from a distance.

"Miss Shen, the child has already drunk the medicine, she is asleep at this time, the hot water is sent over on the stove, the big one is taking a bath, the girl took it to my house to wash, when she left, she was sad and panicked, and turned back three times in one step, for fear that she would not be able to see her brothers again this time." Mama said.

"They are young, and when they come to a strange place, they will inevitably be a little timid." Shen Tong said.

The county lord of Yining became interested and said to Shen Tong: "Yesterday, I took three thousand taels of silver to the magistrate and asked them to settle these children, I don't know if it is enough." ”

Three thousand taels, that's a drop in the bucket.

"If they only rely on handouts, they don't save themselves, and the amount of money they don't have is enough." Shen Tong thought of the children who were ordered by the yamen not to come out to beg, and sighed in his heart.

"Then what should I do, why don't I tell my father and see what he can do." The county lord of Yining has never experienced such a thing, and in the past, in disaster years, Mrs. Ding would give porridge to the victims in her name, but it was just a few days of porridge.

"You can send someone to take these children into one place, and if you are willing to go to a big family to be a small maid, you can teach them the rules; Those who are willing to join the army can also be sent to the barracks; If you are willing to learn the craft to be a buddy, you can let those shops pick people; You can also set up a good hall, so that the young and children who want to study can stay in the good hall, and ask the husband to teach them, even if they can't study, they will not go down the wrong path. ”

Shen Tong snapped her fingers as she spoke, looking very interesting, but no one paid attention to her small movements, and the county lord of Yining and the grandmother all opened their eyes wide and listened to her attentively.

"Yes, whether it is a large family or a small family, you have to buy a small maid and buy a maid, instead of buying it from the human teeth, it is better to choose from these orphans, the orphans have a place to live, have food to eat, and can support themselves."

"There are also those shops, you can also use them as apprentices as buddies, there are not enough shops in Xi'an City, and there are Yulin's."

"It's better to be a soldier, the third brother and the seventh brother were thrown into the barracks by their father as soldiers when they were their age, and the people in the barracks didn't know their identities and regarded them as ordinary soldiers, they could, and those children who wanted to be soldiers must be able to."

"Reading is the best, children who want to study after suffering so much are ambitious, even if they can't be a showman, they can write and draw is also a skill, and those who write letters on the street can also have three meals without worrying."

The county lord of Yining and the grandmother, you and I will say a word, this is something that the county lord of Yining has never paid attention to.

"If I do this, will those people say I'm a fool?" Although the county lord of Yining is young, the children who grew up in the palace see and hear things that ordinary girls can't compare.

"These are hundreds of children, hundreds of lives, and what are those who can only chew their tongues behind their backs compared to saving people?" Shen Tong said coldly, she thought of the children in the back alley who were so hungry that they couldn't stand up, and she also remembered herself in the dead camp in her previous life.

Will these children be brought into the camp of the dead and become the new dead soldiers?

She didn't want to.

She also didn't want these children to turn from beggars to thieves, to gangsters who robbed houses.

She didn't want them to become ownerless graves in mass graves.

They should live in the sun, not in the back alleys where they can't see the light.
