Chapter 26: The Tragic Situation at the Border

"Don't worry, An An will come back."

didn't feel that he was suffering at all, Bai Youan's innocent and brilliant appearance made the two of them feel a little relieved.

Thinking about this, I don't know when I will be able to see this little group, the two took turns to talk to Bai You'an, pinching her soft little face from time to time, and reluctantly saying goodbye.

When packing the package for Bai You'an, Chunhua looked at the various snacks and toys that the two brought to Bai You'an with a look of embarrassment.

It seems that sometimes the master is too endearing, and it is also a troublesome thing.

The next day, the two set off early.

The first stop is to the east, which is already close to the border. The leaves were bleak and cold, and there was no ground to settle on along the way.

"Ahhh~"

Bai You'an, who was still on the carriage, couldn't help yawning, his eyelids were shrugged, and he was drowsy.

I'm so sleepy, I'm sleepy, the fish need to sleep.

Looking at the little guy's tired look, Xia Luochen's eyes flashed with distress.

Stretched out his hand and hugged Bai Youan in his arms, so that she could sleep more comfortably.

I lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out to see that although it was already on the street, there were still not many shops.

Greeted Lou Yue who came to the side.

"Find an inn as soon as possible and settle down."

"Yes."

It's easy to say, but this neighborhood is too dilapidated, and there are no inns that look reliable, and I've been looking for it for a long time.

Finally, after walking for another hour, Lou Yue saw a more reliable inn.

"That's it."

After a brief glance, Xia Luochen paid the deposit and hurriedly carried Bai Youan into the room first.

When he finally lay on the bed, Bai Youan couldn't help but let out a satisfied sigh.

"Hmm~ so comfortable."

Just found a good place to sleep, and was so happy, and it was really an easy little guy to satisfy.

Holding the fragrant soft quilt, the already sleeping villain soon fell into a dream.

Xia Luochen gently tucked her quilt before leaving.

After recuperating his spirits, Bai Youan had been following Xia Luochen around to investigate the situation on the eastern border in the next few days.

On this day, the two went back to the inn as usual, but they were stopped by the shopkeeper.

"You have also lived with me for a long time, and today I went in to inspect and found that the doors and windows were damaged in many places, and you are willing to pay money, if not, please find another place."

The high-pitched female voice makes people very uncomfortable to listen to, and this proprietor is a woman with a wide face and a narrow heart.

"Only, not yet."

As soon as he heard this, Bai Youan was not happy, and pursed his lips to refute.

"Why not? Let your adults take a look, the damage to the doors and windows cost me a lot of money. ”

The shopkeeper's words were eloquent, Xia Luochen gave Lou Yue a look, and he quickly went to the guest room to check.

But Bai Youan was still arguing with the shopkeeper.

"No, liar, liar."

Where you sleep, isn't it clear if Bai You'an is not clear?

This man is trying to cheat people out of money! Fish won't be fooled.

As soon as the shopkeeper heard Bai You'an say this, he kept a calm face, and just wanted to say a few words, but was swept by Xia Luochen's eye knife, and was immediately silenced.

When the scene was embarrassing, Lou Yue came back and nodded at Xia Luochen.

The doors and windows upstairs do look like they have been destroyed, but they are definitely not destroying them, this person clearly wants to extort money.

"Well, give her some money."

Xia Luochen's eyebrows furrowed slightly, how could he not know this person's tricks?

But only this inn was slightly better in the circle of ten miles below, and he didn't want to care, so he sent some money.

As soon as he saw the money, the shopkeeper smiled and no longer argued with Bai Youan.

But after going back, Bai Youan was depressed.

"She, liar."

In the argument with the shopkeeper just now, Bai Youan's face turned red, and this kind of grievance and pitiful appearance made Xia Luochen can't help but soften his heart when he sees it.

"I know she's a liar, let's bear with it this time, otherwise, you won't be able to sleep in such a good bed."

Bai Youan pursed her lips, knowing that Xia Luochen was also thinking about herself, and finally swallowed this breath helplessly.

Hmph, fish don't like liars.

Seeing that Bai Youan was in a bad mood, Xia Luochen took Bai Youan out for a walk again.

"Sugar Man, do you like it?"

Along the way, Xia Luochen didn't meet many vendors, and finally there was a candy seller, who seemed to have seen a life-saving straw.

Looking at all kinds of lifelike sugar figures, Bai Youan forgot about what happened before and pointed to one of the carp-shaped ones.

"Fish fish."

I didn't expect to see myself here, but isn't this little fish the same as me?

Xia Luochen bought it for Bai Youan immediately, holding the candy man in his hand, Bai Youan just looked at it and didn't eat it, the more he looked at it, the more happy he became.

It's really as beautiful as a fish.

It's just that the scene he saw next made Bai Youan unhappy.

A few children, who looked no more than four or five years old, carried heavy firewood on their backs, walked with great difficulty into the distance.

looked at the sugar man in his hand, and compared with these children, Bai Youan suddenly felt that the sugar man was not sweet.

Obviously feeling Bai Youan's mood changes, Xia Luochen called a few guards to help the children carry firewood.

But this is just the beginning, and the more Bai You'an can see the tragic situation of the people on the eastern border.

Because of the perennial drought, there is no rice harvest, the streets are full of begging, and many children are young, skinny, and do not even have a pair of well-fitting shoes.

There are many children in the family who have become a burden, and there are many children with ears of rice on their heads standing on the side of the road, which means that they will be sold soon.

The further he went, the heavier Bai Youan's mood became.

The child who had just been coaxed became dull again, Xia Luochen was distressed, and took Bai Youan back to the inn.

"Don't be sad, what happened to them has nothing to do with you, and I will try my best to help them."

The little guy was sad and didn't want to eat dinner, so Xia Luochen could only come over to comfort him.

Hearing Xia Luochen's voice, Bai Youan raised his head, and his eyes revealed a little confusion.

"Chenchen, An An is tired, no, can't change ......"

Stammering to say what he meant, Bai Youan sat on the bed with a disappointed face.

She really wanted to help everyone, but getting rid of the plague and treating Mrs. Chen before consumed too much of her spiritual power in a short period of time, and now she just can't help.

"I know, it's okay, you just have a good rest, I have something to do here, don't worry too much, it's not your fault."

Seeing Bai Youan's anxious but helpless appearance, Xia Luochen comforted him softly, and reached out to touch Bai Youan's soft hair.

But even after hearing this, Bai You'an still couldn't stand it.

"An An, I want to go out."

Sitting here will only make Bai Youan think more, and Xia Luochen will think about it too, so he will go out with her.
