Together, Chang Geng and Zeng Ba immediately protected Zhao Mengqi.

An unkempt man rushed out of the alley and almost hit Chang Geng, who was already on full alert.

was only three or four feet away, but I saw that he actually folded the direction stiffly, flashed to the side, and shouted, "I'm sorry!" I'm sorry..."

Chang Geng had already taken out the knife, but when he saw this, he quietly took it back.

This person avoided Chang Geng, but he didn't know that there was a hawker pushing a chicken cart in the direction he dodged, so he couldn't dodge, so he hit it hard and fell to the ground.

"Now look where you're going!"

A man chased out of the alley, ran over with a stick, and hit the man on the ground with his head and face.

"Kill you turtle grandson!" "Thief begging, run!" "Look if you dare to steal!"

The man picked up the wooden stick thick as an egg and smashed it on the man, and there was a chaotic bang, and the force made others hurt to look at it.

But the man didn't resist, nor did he cry out in pain, which attracted Zhao Mengqi to look curious.

I saw the man curled up, protecting his head and face with one hand, carrying the beating, and grabbing a few big steamed buns with the other hand and stuffing them into his mouth.

"Dare to eat! Reincarnate as a starving ghost of your mother! ”

The man was so angry with his stick that he stomped on the man's head, and stomped half of his face into the dirt.

The man raised his hand and bumped it, pushed the man's foot away, and hurriedly swallowed it in his mouth, and the steamed bun continued to be sent to his mouth.

The man was pushed and almost fell, and he couldn't help but be even more angry, and kicked the man's hand that grabbed the steamed bun.

Half of the steamed bun fell to the ground and rolled in the distance.

The man hissed like a beast in a nasal voice, kicked a pair of bare feet, and crawled after the steamed buns!

With his empty hand, he grabbed the steamed bun that was already covered with a layer of mud, and stuffed it into his mouth with the one on his other hand, ignoring the man who chased after him and beat him again.

, this is really going to be eaten to death!

Zhao Mengqi had never seen someone look like this, and he was stunned for a long time, and only now did he react, "Zeng Ba, save people!" ”

Zeng Ba rushed forward without hesitation, and kicked the wooden stick in the man's hand with one kick, "Enough, do you want to kill someone if the dog enters!?" ”

The man looked at the broken wooden stick in his hand, was stunned for a moment, and immediately scolded back, "What if you are killed, it's your business!" I want you to take care of it! ”

Originally, I thought that this man was the bitter master who was stolen, Zeng Bacai didn't greet him, and when he saw that he dared to scold himself, he shook his hand and slapped him, "Smack!" ”

"Thief Bird, Brain Kicked by Donkey!? Lao Tzu, this is to save you! Dare to bite Lu Dongbin? ”

Blinded by this slap, the man threw the broken stick on the ground, covered his face, and looked at Zeng Ba angrily, not knowing what to mumble in his mouth.

Zeng Ba thought he was still scolding himself, "I really don't cry when I don't see the coffin......" and made a gesture to go up and beat him.

"Official... Other... It's not right for me. ”

The man on the ground got up one by one, swallowed the last bite, and stopped Zeng Ba, "It was I who stole his steamed buns, and he should beat me." ”

"The kid is very resistant to beating!" Zeng Ba was surprised, seeing that this grizzled man was actually a teenager, and thought his behavior was quite interesting, so he couldn't help but ridicule, "He beat you to death just now, so you don't want to take revenge?" …… Oh, by the way, looking at you, you can actually fight back just now, right? Practiced? ”

The young man grinned innocently, revealing a mouthful of big teeth, "The poor are cheap, as long as they don't starve to death, it's okay to beat a few sticks." ”

The man relieved himself, covered his face and muttered, "That's it, this monkey should be beaten, he has been stealing my steamed buns for half a month, and I finally caught him today." ”

At this time, Ban Zhi, who followed behind, except for the driver, the other five all caught up, and they were all relieved to see that Zhao Mengqi was fine.

Then hugged Zhao Mengqi and walked over, and when the man saw this formation, he immediately panicked, "You... Don't mess around, or I'll sue the official. ”

"You committed murder in the street, and you still have the courage to sue the official?" Zhao Mengqi smiled, "Isn't it just a matter of a few steamed buns, as for beating people to death?" ”

As soon as the man saw Zhao Mengqi's temperament, he knew that he was a person he couldn't provoke, and hurriedly explained, "Yanei, you can't say that, he has stolen a lot in the past half a month, plus today's total of eighty-seven, counting him forty-three dollars, I am busy surviving all day, and I can't earn so much." ”

"Okay, when I ask clearly, I'll compensate you for him."

Zhao Mengqi also knew that at this time, the low-level people were not having a good time, and maybe the family would have to starve if they worked for nothing, so it was not appropriate to be demanding.

He turned his head to look at the young man, and saw that his clothes were in tatters, and there were several big holes that were torn, and he could directly see his skinny body, and there were many cracks on his feet, he should not have worn shoes for a long time, and in such a cold weather, I don't know how he was not frozen to death.

"What's your name?"

The young man scratched the head of the chicken nest, although his face was covered with mud, he could also see that he was very embarrassed, "I, my name is Wu Qiong." ”

"Am I poor? It's really a good name, this time you are not poor who is poor? Zhao Mengqi couldn't help laughing.

"No, it's not!" The young man was a little anxious, and hurriedly distinguished, "It's the fifth person, Wang Jingqiong!" ”

"Huh? How old are you, literate? ”

"On the fifteenth day of this year, I have been taught for a few years and know some words."

"It's only fifteen, it looks like it's a few heads taller than me, okay, let's not talk about this yet, let me ask you, you should also be a homeless person from the Taihu Lake."

The reason why Zhao Mengqi asked this is because under normal circumstances, people of unknown origin cannot enter the city, but Lin'an is also the national capital.

"Yes, I came with them." Wu Qiong replied honestly.

"Isn't there relief for you in Lin'an Mansion? And also build a resettlement house for you, why don't you go to work, look at your appearance and have the strength, but what is the secret, the officials withhold your relief? ”

"There is no deduction, I receive the same porridge as everyone, but I can't eat enough, it's not that I don't want to go to work, it's that I'm not old enough, and I don't have a household registration ......"

"Don't have a household registration?" If you don't have a household registration, not only will the government not accept it, but even private individuals will not dare to hire it easily, at least not in Lin'an.

"I'm not from the Song Dynasty, no, Ah Weng said that we are from the Song Dynasty, my hometown is from Xuzhou, and my hometown can't survive, Ah Weng took me to the south, first went to Xiangyang, and then went to Changzhou......" Saying that, Wu Qiong seemed to think of something sad and choked up.

It turned out to be a fugitive from the North, listening to his short sentence, I am afraid that he has experienced countless tribulations, Zhao Mengqi sighed in his heart, "Okay, I understand, by the way, then why did you only steal this man's steamed buns?" ”

Wu Qiong glanced at the man embarrassedly, and scratched his head again, "He is alone in the stall, I am not actually stealing, but when I see that he is busy, I take it and run, I think, he should not leave the stall to chase me, in fact, if I am not hungry today, he will not be able to chase him." ”

When the man heard this, he was angry, "I've been angry for half a month, if I can't help it, can I throw all the stalls away?" I don't know what will be left when I turn back. You cunning is so deceitful! ”

"Okay, okay, I'll pay you back, Huang Wolf, give him ten dollars." Zhao Mengqi felt that Wu Qiong's kid was very interesting, and when he was in a good mood, he opened his mouth to ten times.

Good guy, where is a broken stall selling steamed buns worth ten times of money, this Ah Lang really doesn't treat money as money, Huang Zhi chattered in his heart, and he didn't have the good luck to slap ten times of money in the hands of the man.

The man held the handover bill with both hands, recognized it through the light for a long time, and finally bared his mouth full of yellow teeth, "Thank you, Yanei, Yanei is ...... atmosphere"

"That's it! You're good to go! Zhao Mengqi waved his hand and drove the man away.

At this time, the cart vendor who had been cowering to the side for a long time walked over with a cower, and asked weakly, "Yanei, the villain's car was knocked over, and the cart of grinding and drinking music was shattered, look, can you ......?"

Okay, send the Buddha to the west, and the good people will do it to the end, "Huang Wolf, compensate him." ”

Huang Yu took out a bill and handed it to the vendor, and the vendor took it and looked at it, and suddenly became a little unhappy, "How can it be consistent?" ”

"Don't? Come back! Huang Zhi was not used to him, and stretched out his hand to ask for it, "You clay figurines, at most they are worth two hundred Wen, and you are not happy to give you consistent!?" Don't be too greedy! ”

"Gladly! Gladly! The villain willingly! The peddler hurriedly put the money in his arms, got the car up and ran away.

Wu Qiong looked at Zhao Mengqi losing money in a daze, she didn't understand why she didn't understand that the trouble she caused was actually worth ten dollars, and she was not a little lady, even if she sold herself, it was not worth so much money!

Zhao Mengqi looked at him with a smile, "I'll help you solve the trouble, and I'll also pay for you, in the future, you can mess with me." ”

"Huh!?" Wu Qiong was like being stung by a wasp, she jumped back in fright, trembling and hugging her chest, "I'm not a slave!" Ah Weng said that even if you starve to death, you can't sell yourself into slavery! ”

Zhao Mengqi was amused, "But you owe me ten consistently, how are you going to pay it back?" ”

"How?" Wu Qiong was dumbfounded, and folded her fingers, "Ten consistent, ten consistent!" I may not be able to save less than ten consistently! How to pay it back, how to pay it back......"

This stupid boy is really lucky, he is favored by His Royal Highness, and he will not be able to soar in the future? is still grinding here, I really don't know how to be blessed in the blessing!

Chang Geng, Zeng Ba and the others looked envious and jealous, and their eyes when they looked at Wu Qiong were extremely complicated.

After talking for a long time, Wu Qiong didn't think of a way to make ten consistent money, so she could only grit her teeth, "Yanei, I can't afford to pay it back, otherwise, I'll give you my life." ”

Zhao Mengqile was broken, squinting, "Take your life back?" …… That's fine, too! ”

"Okay, I'll give it to you now." As he spoke, Wu Qiong looked around, then picked up a fist-sized stone and was about to smash it on his head.

"Stop!" Zhao Mengqi was afraid that he would shout slowly, so this kid really sent it, "Who let you die, I mean, you will follow me in the future, don't worry, I won't let you be a slave, and I will give you a household registration." ”

"Really!? I'm very good at eating! ”
