I saw the little girl pull him to a dark corner, and with tears in her eyes, she pointed to an old woman lying in the dark. Shen Yu hurriedly stepped forward to see if the old grandmother was still alive, and probed her pulse, which was extremely weak, she should have fainted from hunger, and she was afraid that she would not survive.

Shen Yu picked up the old grandmother and asked the little girl to take care of her first, and hurriedly ran over to bring two bowls of porridge, one bowl to the little girl, and one bowl was blown cold and fed to the old grandmother one by one. After feeding a bowl of porridge, Shen Yu saw that the little girl still didn't drink a sip of white porridge, and couldn't help but ask softly, "Why don't you drink it?"

The little girl looked at the white porridge in her hand and swallowed a few saliva for a while, but she still didn't speak, just turned her head to look at the old grandmother, and then stretched the white porridge in her hand to the old grandmother's mouth, Shen Yu looked at it and immediately understood that she was not hungry but just wanted to leave it for the old grandmother to eat, and couldn't help but smile and touched her head, and said gently: "Your grandmother has already drunk it." You drink the porridge first. When I go get the doctor, your grandma will be fine. When she wakes up, I'll bring her porridge for her to drink. ”

Hearing this, the little girl looked up at Shen Yu's incomparably gentle smile, his smile slowly melted into her heart like a candle in the night, and the clear and clear heart lake was as beautiful as inadvertently reflecting a beautiful pink peach blossom. The little girl smiled too, innocently and lovely, nodded, and then drank the porridge with her head buried in her eyes. Shen Yu couldn't help but say loudly: "You drink slowly, there will be more over there after drinking." I'm going to go to the doctor. ”

Shen Yu asked Yang Qi to bring two more bowls of porridge to the little girl, and ran to the backyard of the mansion to pull Imperial Doctor Liu over in a hurry. When Imperial Doctor Liu saw that the general came in person and was leaving urgently, he was nervous and thought that something had happened to His Royal Highness the Prince, but who knew that he had asked the imperial doctor to treat an old woman in rags.

After seeing the doctor, Imperial Doctor Liu's face was a little solemn and said: "This old grandmother's body is too weak, she should have not eaten for several days, and she is too hungry." I will prescribe a few prescriptions for her body, but because the old man is older, it depends on whether she can survive tonight, and if she survives tonight, it will take several days to recover. ”

Hearing this, Shen Yu asked Yang Qi to help the old grandmother down and found a room for the little girl to live with her grandmother. Shen Yu looked at the little girl and looked back at him from time to time, and smiled gently at her, so that she could go with Yang Qi with peace of mind. After she left, Shen Yu's brows furrowed, thinking: The little girl can't speak, has no food, and is worried about being bullied every day, in such a difficult situation, how did an old man and a mute, two old, weak, sick and disabled survive.

This relief porridge was opened in the government office for three days and three nights in a row, so that the hungry people in the whole county could drink hot porridge. In the past few days, Shen Yu has been busy patrolling and strengthening his defense, and he has not yet found out the whereabouts of the remaining assassins, so he must strengthen his vigilance and protect the safety of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at any time. Sometimes Yang Qi saw that Shen Yu was too tired, so he urged him to go back and rest, and he and Yang Wenyu, the lord of the mansion, could inspect together, so that Shen Yu could rest for a few hours.

When his lieutenant Yang Qi and the mansion lord Yang Wenyu replaced him, Shen Yu first went to see the old grandmother and the little girl. When Shen Yu came in, the old grandmother had already woken up, but her body was relatively weak and she couldn't get out of bed, and the little girl ran to him with a smile when she saw him coming, and pulled him to the grandmother's bed. The old grandmother saw her granddaughter smile as bright as the sun when she saw Shen Yu come in, and guessed in her heart that he should have saved them.

The old grandmother struggled to get up and kowtow to her life-saving benefactor, but was held down by Shen Yu. Shen Yu smiled and said, "Old woman, your body is still very weak, you don't need to get up." The old grandmother said in a hoarse voice: "I am so grateful to the benefactor for saving our lives, my old woman is old and poor, and has nothing to repay the benefactor, so she can only kowtow twice to thank the benefactor for saving her life." Little girl, come over and kowtow to Engong three times. Shen Yu saw that the little girl really knelt down, and hurriedly wanted to pull her up, but she didn't want to get up anyway, and said to the old grandmother: "Old woman, no need, no need to kowtow, you can let this child get up quickly."

The old grandmother said gratefully: "Engong, just let her kowtow a few times, and we can't repay your great kindness." On weekdays, both of us are annoying beggars, and whoever sees them will kick and scold a few words, how can anyone treat us so well as you. The old grandmother wiped her tears while saying, and the little girl also looked at Shen Yu with tears in her eyes.

Shen Yu listened to her words, and felt uncomfortable and sad for a while, so he let go of the hand holding the little girl and made her kowtow three times sincerely. "Alright, get up." Shen Yu hurriedly pulled her up after she finished kowtowing, and saw that the little girl had already been washed, and the whole person was no longer unkempt and sloppy, so he looked at her carefully.

I saw the little girl's thin and pointed face, her complexion was dark yellow without a trace of blood, and only her cheekbones were left on her face, so her eyes were especially big and bright, although her clothes had been changed, but the little girl had no meat on her body because of long-term hunger, and the whole person was black, short and thin.

Shen Yu couldn't help but reach out and gently caress the little girl's thin little face, and asked with a smile: "Your name is Xiaoya" The little girl looked at him with a pair of pure and clear big eyes, and nodded vigorously. "How old is this year" Shen Yu forgot that the little girl couldn't speak, so she first raised one hand and spread five fingers, and then raised the other hand and stretched out four fingers, which means that she is nine years old this year.

At first, Shen Yu saw that she was so thin, he couldn't tell her age, and thought that she was just a six or seven-year-old child, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it seems that it was long-term malnutrition that made her so thin and small, this child is thinner than ordinary nine-year-old children. Shen Yu touched her head with a smile and said gently, "From today on, you can live here with your grandmother with peace of mind until your grandmother is completely well."

The old woman lying on the bed hurriedly said, "Thank you, General." He shouted to his granddaughter again, "Little girl, thank you soon, general." The little girl wanted to kneel down and kowtow again to thank her, but Shen Yu quickly stopped her and said, "No need." Don't let the old woman keep letting the child kneel, the child is still young. Xiaoya is a milk name. What's your granddaughter's last name? ”

I saw the old grandmother look sad and looked down and sighed for a while, and then looked up and said: "I picked up this child on the side of the road when she was three years old, and I carried a bundle of firewood to the market to sell at that time, and when I came back it was very late, I saw her crying pitifully on the side of the road, crying so that her eyes were red and swollen, but I didn't hear a sound." I walked up to her and asked her where her home was, where her family was, and she just shook her head and didn't speak, and immediately understood that this was a child who couldn't speak. Seeing that there was no one on the street, it was dark and brought her back. When she said this, the old grandmother looked at her granddaughter with pity, and the little girl obediently walked up to her and snuggled up to her.
