The people of the barbarians outside the Saiwai began to invade the surrounding villages with their troops again, and Yan Changling went to the military camp to command.

An Nan was alone in the mansion, a little bored, so he got rid of the people in the mansion, disguised himself alone, and went out.

Yan Changling originally didn't have a few servants in Moyan City's mansion, probably because he lived in the military camp before and rarely came back, but since An Nan was redeemed and brought back by him, there have been a lot of them, all of which serve An Nan, so An Nan will be considered very lucky by the people of Mo Yan City, because this shows that Yan Changling loves her very much.

But...... An Nan has a keen sense of five senses, and she also found a lot of people staring at her in the dark, which is very intriguing, she is just an Oiran who came out of the flower building, and her identity is easy to check, why did Yan Changling send so many people to guard her?

Is it really that she is afraid that something will happen to her safety? Or are you suspecting that she is a spy for the barbarians?

An Nan didn't find anything wrong with her life experience from the memory of the original owner, so she didn't care much when she learned that someone was staring at her, even if she would be much more cautious when she went out in the future, but with her ability, it wasn't difficult.

This time, An Nan got rid of those people in the dark and went to the street, and the scene he saw was completely different from the last time he came out with Yan Changling, last time there were people coming and going on the street, shouting, shouting, noisy, and full of life, but this time, there were many fewer people on the street, all of them came and went in a hurry, there were fewer stalls and vendors, and the usual noise disappeared, and the atmosphere was tense and solemn, which made people can't help but worry.

An Nan heard the woman on the road whispering to her companion: "I heard that those Qiang soldiers ransacked several village chiefs in the north a few days ago, and none of them survived, I don't know if they will come to our side." ”

Her companion frowned, his face was full of wind and frost, and he shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be, General Yan is here, and the Qiang soldiers don't dare to come." ”

"I hope so......," replied the woman, absentmindedly, and the two walked away.

Another vendor selling wooden dolls on the side said to the stall owner selling snacks next to him while packing up the goods on his stall: "Why did you come out to sell food today?" Now that everyone has no heart to go shopping, few people will buy it, so you should quickly collect the stall and go back, and buy more rice and grain, in case the price of grain rises in the future, we can't afford it......"

The stall owner who sold food frowned and said, "Hey, I know what you said, but if I don't come out to sell some, isn't it worse for me to be bored at home and think nonsense?" ”

"Don't worry too much, General Yan won't let those barbarians break into the city anyway." The wooden doll vendor said.

"Although I know that General Yan will defend this place, those Qiang people are quite worried when they go to the city to show off their might...... said the stall owner who sells food.

"Alas, it would be nice if one day they could completely beat them so that they wouldn't even dare to get close to Moyan City! That way we can have peace of mind. ”

……

"Wow! Woo wow...... "An Nan was listening to the whispers of people coming and going, when suddenly a loud and piercing child's cry broke into her ears.

When she heard the sound, she saw that more than 100 meters away, in front of a closed shop, stood a ragged, yellow-skinned four or five-year-old child, she was crying in horror, but there were no adults around her, and even because of her crying, the others were farther away, as if they didn't want to get into trouble, and no one stopped to ask the child.

An Nan looked at it for a while, then walked up, bent down and asked the crying little girl, "Where is your father?" ”

When the little girl saw her, she did not answer, but took a few steps back in fear, and almost fell, and suddenly cried even more fiercely.

An Nan helplessly supported her, and with this help, you could feel how thin she was in the palm of her hand, there was no flesh on her body, and it was all bones.

"Alas, whose child doesn't want it?" An old voice sighed, an old woman with a hunched back, and she glanced at the little girl with pity as she passed by.

"Is this child a family member who deliberately doesn't want to be hungry?" An Nan asked the old woman in surprise.

The old woman nodded: "Probably from a remote village, their hometown was invaded by the Qiang people, and they finally escaped for their lives, but they couldn't support her, so they had to leave her here to see if there would be any kind people to take her in." ”

An Nan was taken aback: "Are there many such children?" ”

The old woman said: "Every time a village is invaded, there are many children who are discarded, we are quite rich in Moyan City, those villagers who escaped leave their children here, maybe they can save their lives, if they flee with their parents, then the whole family may die together...... Of course, more often than not, the whole village died under the hooves and bayonets of the Qiang people. ”

"Poor ......" the old woman sighed and said, glanced at An Nan, and saw that she was dressed quite neatly, so she said, "If you have the ability, take her in, otherwise if you are let be captured by the people in the flower building, you will enter the wolf's den, and life and death are not as good as it." ”

After speaking, without waiting for An Nan to answer, he shook his head and left tremblingly, presumably he had seen too much of this situation, and he was used to seeing it.

An Nan went to a nearby pastry shop to buy a few pieces of pastry and handed them to the little girl, who smelled the smell of the food, and immediately stopped crying, and quickly snatched the pastry, and devoured it, it seemed that she was hungry.

After just a few bites, she was choked and coughed because it was too dry, and An Nan hurriedly patted her on the back and made her choke on the pastry.

"Eat slowly, I'll buy you if you're not full." An Nan said to her.

The little girl ate four or five pieces of pastry, filled her stomach, and was not so hungry, so she slowed down her eating speed, and then took a pair of fawn-like eyes and peeked timidly at Annan with a pair of fawn-like eyes.

An Nan observed the people around her, but she didn't find anyone who seemed to be the little girl's family, it seemed that she was really abandoned.

Although he is a cold-hearted fox in his bones, the fox will also treat the cubs in the clan well, so when An Nan sees a little girl who is four or five years old, not as tall as her thighs, and abandoned by her family, she will not let her cry here alone, waiting for an unknown fate.

So when the little girl was no longer so afraid of her, she took the man back to the house.

The housekeeper was startled when he saw that she had actually come back from outside the house, and he didn't know when she went out, but he was a subordinate and was not qualified to ask about the master, so he didn't ask anything.

As for what those people in the dark will think of when they learn about it, An Nan doesn't care.

"Housekeeper, this child was picked up from the street by me, it should have been abandoned by my family, do we have an orphanage or something like that?" An Nan asked.

The housekeeper said embarrassedly: "No, Moyan City is a border pass, and I don't know when the war will be fought here, and the orphanage will not be opened here." ”
