Chapter 0440: Ten Thousand Horse Heads
In the Longmen market, the rumors of those traffickers were deeply transmitted to their hearts, and it was even more that hunger and suffering hurt them for too long, and after they bought it back, they would lose money, and then they frightened the three children.
Zimo smiled slightly: "Let's eat! It's okay, let's have a chat while eating, okay?"
Before they were very hungry, the three children could still face the temptation of noodle soup, and keep the worries in their hearts, which shows that the three children have extremely high minds, and Zimo is very appreciative and happy.
The two boys finally couldn't stand the unbearable hunger, and when they saw that Zimo was really kind, they picked up the noodle bowl and snorted a few times, and they saw the bottom.
The two children put down the bowl, and some of them looked at Zimo with a little embarrassment about their extremely fast eating.
Zimo hurriedly diverted their thoughts and continued to ask: "Such a large area has been affected by disasters, and the county order, state order, and county guard don't care about them?"
Ma Tou immediately replied: "At first, the county sent people to put some porridge and rice, and then for some reason, they drove us to the state city, and the state city also released grain, but in winter, it was suddenly rumored that tens of thousands of refugees in the state city had eaten up the warehouse, and they did not release grain, and many people starved to death, and many people began to rob the residents of the city. During this period, there were many lives, and on the day of heavy snowfall, the state and county guards sent troops to drive all of us out of the city."
The girl took a bite of a snack and said slowly: "A few days later, there was a fight in the camp, my uncle, my father was killed in one night, and our family's clothes and bedding were snatched away by others, and then my mother, aunt and a few cousins and cousins took us east overnight, saying that it was to the royal capital, and that the king had grain distribution."
Zimo answered: "So you came all the way to the capital, but what about your aunt and cousin?"
"My aunt died, my cousin was sold by my aunt, and my cousin was taken by a gang of people to work as a coolie," Wan Matou said with a little cry of sadness.
Zimo sighed softly, got up and left, and walked to a little second brother in the store who looked relatively quick: "Little second brother, this is thirty taels of silver, your eyesight is sharp, the place here is more familiar, please open two upper rooms, go to buy a few clothes for each of the three children, let the room get some bath water, you look at the flowers, and the rest is the cost of your labor, trouble you"
The little second brother has sharp eyesight, two upper rooms, only a few hundred copper coins, you don't need a silver or two for eating and bathing, and the clothes don't cost a high ground, but this son lets himself look at the purchase, and also leaves a surplus for himself, but a few children, all of them have just been bought, so naturally you can get some ordinary clothes, nothing more than to buy a few more, which can earn you some silver, and it should be no problem to get three or five taels.
"Come on! You leave this matter to me, I'll do things, you can rest assured, there is a clothing shop not far in front, and we are acquaintances, I also went there a few days ago, and the shopkeeper dragged me to introduce him to business, this is good, it is sleepy and sent a pillow, hehe!"
The little second brother instantly calculated the accounts in his heart, feeling that a lot of income was about to fall into his pocket this time, and smirked flatteringly at Zimo.
Zimo arched his hand: "Thank you, thank you"
The little Erle greeted his companion, opened the room, instructed the room to prepare bathwater, and hurriedly went out to buy clothes for the three children.
Zimo suddenly felt a little hungry, as if he was influenced by the three children, so he ordered four bowls of noodle soup again.
Zimo returned to the table and sat down, and saw that the girl Jixiang had finished the second bowl, and her face returned to a touch of red.
People are iron, rice is steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry, not to mention that you will be hungry for almost a year.
A full meal can make the child recover quickly, it seems that the eyesight of the trafficker who walks the market all the year round is absolutely sophisticated, this child's physique and complexion are really much stronger than ordinary people, she must have something extraordinary.
Several children saw four more bowls of noodles coming up, and were surprised when they saw Zimo also pick up a bowl of snoring and eating, and the girl said, "Big, uncle, you, how can you ......"
Before the girl could finish speaking in horror, Zimo interrupted her words and said while burying her head in eating;
"Don't call me uncle, my name is Zimo, I'm eighteen, you will call me brother in the future. Eat, I know you haven't eaten yet, hehe, I'm hungry too, do it!" Zimo buried his head in eating noodles and said with a sullen head.
Tian Tou hurriedly said: "I twelve"
Ma Tou said: "The young master knows"
Tian Tou: "I know that the young master knows that we are twelve, but the young master just said that he is eighteen, and I am saying what echoes the young master!"
Ji Xiang said: "You two are mischievous, and you have to ask the young master if he wants you to call, then with you two as subordinates, we shouldn't eat with the young master at the same table, we must stand when the young master eats."
"Oh!"
When the two boys heard their sister's words, they hurriedly stood outside the table.
Zimo saw the cute state of the two boys, poofed, and almost laughed: "Don't, don't, you still call me big brother"
Wan Jixiang bowed his head and said: "Young boy, please, leave us, young boy, we bought us, you can't want us"
The two boys suddenly understood something, and they also knelt down: "Young master, young master, don't you want us, don't, I don't want to starve, I don't want to wander, and sister, you are kind enough to take us in, we don't want my sister to be sold to the Red Mansion"
Zimo was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood that he treated them like this, making them misunderstand that they were just kindly entertaining them, and he might be like some kind-hearted people on the road, treating the Wan Jixiang family who were in trouble with courtesy, but in the end, he sent them on the road of escape here.
Thousands of miles away, they must have met a lot of kind-hearted people along the way, but in the end, the result is that they continue to start anew, and continue to die one by one, kind-hearted people are only a short-term help, and if the children are a long-term safety, follow a person, even if they endure hardships, even if they are tired, they also have sustenance.
And wandering really scared these children.
Zimo suddenly understood this truth, only when they were their own property, they would feel safe, and he would not leave them.
Of course, I would never treat them as a property, and I already had a responsibility to them.
"Okay! This young master ordered you to eat quickly, hurry up and take a bath, where can this young master's people be muddy, are you going to stink to death Young Master Ben? Eat quickly! After eating, go take a bath, go and sleep well, this young master still has a task for you to assign!"
The three children were suddenly overjoyed, as if they had been selected by the emperor, and they didn't have to worry about eating in this life, so they hurriedly sat on the table and devoured them.
Zimo snorted and ate a bowl of noodles, feeling a slightly better mood, with these little guys, he also felt a lot happier, and the suppressed emotions of poisoning were swept away a lot: "Young Master Ben doesn't want to suffer, you can eat if you can, sleep when you can, play when you can, I want you to grow up quickly, so that you can help me do things, you are so young, the task now is to grow up quickly"
"Okay, young master, I still want a bowl of noodles"
"Young master, I want two bowls"
