"Xiaorou is back, didn't the grandmother from your thing say that even if you starve to death, you can't steal other people's things, why are you disobedient, give it back to someone. "What a backbone old man

"Grandma, I didn't steal it, I didn't steal it, it was given to me by a kind big brother. ”

"Really, you didn't lie to me"

"It's true, grandma, you see I've brought my big brother here. As she spoke, the little girl pulled Mu Xiaoxue in from the door.

"Old man, Xiaorou didn't lie to you, I gave this thing to her. While Mu Xiaoxue was speaking, the old man looked at her

"Thank you, girl. Looking at the old man, although she looked sick, the shrewdness that flashed in the old man's eyes, as well as her words and deeds, should have been from a big family before.

"Grandma, are you dazzled, this is a big brother, not a girl. ”

"Xiaorou, what your grandmother said is right, I am a daughter like you, but my sister feels that it is convenient to use a man's body when she goes out, so that she can avoid some trouble. I'm sorry my sister didn't mean to lie to you, but you'll understand when you grow up. ”

After listening to Mu Xiaoxue's explanation, Xiao Rou didn't bother about this matter anymore, and ate the things she brought back with her grandmother with a smile on her face.

"Xiao Rou, who told you to bring outsiders here. The person who came was an eight-year-old boy, who was also dirty and his clothes were tattered, but he did not have the immaturity of an eight-year-old child at all, especially at this time, he was vigilant and defensive against Mu Xiaoxue in his eyes. What kind of experience does it take for an eight-year-old to be so wary of strangers?

"Brother, you're back, come on, come on, it's the eldest brother, no, it's the eldest sister who bought me food. Xiao Rou happily ran to pull the boy's hand, but was thrown away by the little boy. The little boy rushed to the food that had been packed and picked it up and threw it on the ground.

"You also brought back the things given by others, do you know who she is, what if she puts poison in it, do you want to kill grandma" was frightened by her brother's roar like this, and hugged Mu Xiaoxue and cried.

"Uh, you're Xiaorou's brother, aren't you, I'm not a bad person, you don't have to. Mu Xiaoxue helped Xiaorou to stand on the side, walked to the little boy's side and wanted to take his hand.

The little boy avoided Mu Xiaoxue's hand and looked at her vigilantly, "Who knows if you are a good person or a bad person, will anyone write the words I am a bad person on their face?"

"We don't need other people's handouts, I can earn my own silver taels, and I don't have to worry about you to ask you to leave. "Seeing that the little boy is so unkind, Mu Xiaoxue is also angry, why are the ancient people so rigid, they want to save face and suffer crimes, and they still treat me as a bad person, do I look like a bad person?

"Okay, you don't need to be charred, then please ask yourself how many days you haven't eaten. ”

"Whether I eat or not is none of your business. ”

"Okay, it's none of my business whether you've eaten or not, then may I ask grandma and Xiaorou who haven't eaten for a few days?"

"Me, I"

"How many taels of silver did you earn today?"

"Did you bring food back today?"

"Look at your grandmother's body, she should be sick, do you have two silver to please Langzhong?"

"Do you have any silver taels to buy decent clothes for your grandmother, sister and yourself?"

"If I'm a bad person, what can I do to you in your current situation?"

Listening to Mu Xiaoxue's questions, the little boy's head became lower and lower, Mu Xiaoxue was right, he couldn't do anything, he couldn't afford to ask Lang Zhong to see his grandmother, and he didn't have silver taels to buy food for his grandmother's sister. Not even a decent set of clothes. But his self-esteem told him not to bow his head.

"Yes, what you said is right, but so what, that's also my family's business, what does it have to do with you. Mu Xiaoxue was really speechless, how could she meet such a child. It's just that she didn't know that such a stubborn child would become her most powerful assistant in the future.

"Yes, it has nothing to do with me, it's me who is nosy" The two were still arguing

"Grandma, grandma, wake up"

"Huan'er, go and invite Lang Zhong immediately" Huan'er, who had been outside the door, couldn't help but shock when she heard Mu Xiaoxue suddenly call her name, how could the eldest lady know that I was here, but this was not the time to think about this, so I didn't dare to delay the time to use light skills to invite Lang Zhong.

Looking at the direction in which Huan'er flew away, wow, it turned out to be really light work, and when I turned around, I must let Huan'er teach me. It's just that there is such a hidden person around him, which is fine if he is a friend, but it is not good if he is an enemy

Huan'er's work efficiency is still very fast, and Banzhuxiang saw an old man coming in with a medical box on his back.

"Grandpa, come and see what's wrong with my grandma. Xiaorou anxiously pulled Lang Zhong to her grandmother, and Lang Zhong carefully checked her pulse.

"The patient is not too troubled, but he is too old and malnourished to faint, I will prescribe medicine and adjust according to the prescription, and I will be fine if I eat on time in the future."

"Thank you grandpa, just just"

"This is silver taels, and there is Dr. Lao. ”

"You're welcome, then you can go with me to get the medicine."

Seeing Xiaorou follow Lang Zhong to get the medicine, it is impossible for the little boy to say that he is not touched by Mu Xiaoxue, but he is still not used to having someone treat him so well.

Mu Xiaoxue also saw his awkwardness: "Needless to say, thank you, I'm just helping Xiaorou." ”

"Who's going to say thank you to meddle with me. Uh, but thank you anyway, I'll give you back the silver taels. ”

"Also, what do you take, it's right for people to have backbone, but you also have to do what you can. Mu Xiaoxue knew that it was impossible for the little boy to accept him all at once, she could only take her time.

"In this way, you will follow me in the future, and I will take care of your food, clothing, housing and transportation. ”

"But but" The boy glanced at his grandmother who was sleeping on the ground, and Mu Xiaoxue also saw his worry.

"Don't worry, the silver I gave you is enough for you to feed your family. ”

"But I'm still so young, what can I do for you?"

"I haven't figured out what to do yet, I'll tell you when I'm done. ”

"But but" saw the boy's concerns

"Don't worry, I won't let you do anything that violates morality and hurts nature, but now I haven't figured out how to make you worthy of the silver taels I gave. ”

With Mu Xiaoxue's assurance, the boy was also a little moved. ”

"Okay, it's a little bold to be a man, if you're afraid, you can also refuse, and I won't ask you for today's silver taels. ”

"Okay, I promise you. "I didn't expect the little boy to agree in the end, so I don't count myself as accepting the little brother

"Can you tell me your name now?"

"Guo Xiaoren"

"Okay, Guo Xiaoren is welcome to join us, and the cooperation is pleasant. Mu Xiaoxue stretched out her hand to Guo Xiaoren in a modern way, but she didn't expect him to blush, haha

"Someone will come tomorrow to arrange for you, and you will wait here. ”

When Xiaorou came back with the medicine, Mu Xiaoxue should go back to the house not too early, on the way back to the house, Mu Xiaoxue was still thinking, although she didn't visit any fun places when she came out today, it was not bad to receive a little brother, haha, this is not an unexpected gain
