"Qin Duanxing, our brother has lived in a broken temple for more than half a year, so it's a bit affectionate, right? Now that you have rich people next to you, shouldn't you also pull and pull us? A boy yelled in a gruff voice.

"That's it, Brother Liu is right! My brother is going to starve to death, and the tofu in your hand is fragrant and hot, so give it to my brother to eat two bites. Another child, Ryri, shouted angrily.

"No! This is for the guests, not for you to eat. This is Qin Duanxing's voice.

Qingwen stopped and waited quietly at the entrance of the alley, her eyes fixed on Qin Duanxing, who was surrounded by a group of children.

She wanted to see how he would get out of the predicament.

Duanxing has to go out to deliver every day, and it is inevitable that he will meet his former partners.

Even if this doesn't happen today, what about tomorrow and the day after tomorrow?

Maybe something else would happen, and he would have to learn to deal with it himself.

"Brothers, he doesn't give. Let's go up together and rob him! The kid who was called "Brother Liu" was annoyed.

"Rob!" The eldest brother took the lead, and seven or eight other children were eager to try.

"Wait!"

Qin Duanxing's back was close to the wall, he opened the oiled paper bag with one hand, held it high, and shouted loudly, "If you dare to come over, I will throw it to the ground and step on it to pieces, none of us can think about it!" ”

The white tofu was in front of him, but several children looked at each other, and they were really frightened by him, and they didn't dare to take a step forward.

Lin Qingwen secretly applauded, this little guy! It's a bit like Lin Xiang's heroic protection and the taste of the family.

"I'm helping the Lin family's workshop deliver goods now, and if they give me a bite to eat, I have to work hard for others. If you cause me to lose this job, and let my sister and I go to wander and starve again, I will fight with you! ”

The anger in Qin Duanxing's eyes seemed to be about to turn into substance, gushing outward, and his small body contained a power that could not be underestimated, "Liu Dazhuang, you are three years older than me, and you have more strength than me, why don't you go find a job to support yourself, and you have to reach out and beg for food?" If you can't get food, you want to come and rob me of my things, will you bully children? ”

"I ......"

Liu Dazhuang is "Brother Liu", the eldest of several children, who was named by Qin Duanxing, and seemed to bow his head in shame, muttering in a low voice, "How can that job be so easy to find?" Do you think anyone is as kind-hearted as your host? ”

"You have to have the heart to look for them, you can always find them, and so do they, you can't lead them all the time begging, right? They had to find a way to earn their own food. ”

Qin Duanxing thought for a while, and then said, "In this way, I will send more than a dozen goods every day, and I can give you two copies." Two guests who are very close to each other, send one to you for a penny. As for who will deliver it, you decide.

Dress cleanly, and don't let the lord dislike it. I also have to make sure that it is delivered on time and in quantity, and if there is a mistake, you will not come to me in the future. ”

Is that okay? Liu Dazhuang turned his head to look at his little brother.

The children were also looking at him, with different expressions. Some are expectant, some are disdainful, and some are indifferent.

Begging for food on the street, one must be sweet, the other must be cheeky, and when you see people, you will surround them, no matter whether they are good-looking or ugly, the good words in their mouths cannot be broken.

If there are well-wishers, they will give a penny or two, and when they meet a bad heart, they will kick you honestly.

Sometimes I will meet a stupid young master from a rich family, and when he is happy to compliment, he can also throw more money at them.

Of course, there are times when you are unlucky, and you can't get a penny for a few days.

However, begging, as long as you move your mouth, you don't have to work.

Therefore, Qin Duanxing's two-penny business on this day was liked by some people and disdained by others.

Some little beggars still have a little self-esteem in their hearts, and they feel that begging is always looked down upon, so they want this job.

You can earn two pennies by running errands, and you can buy two steamed buns. You don't have to beg people, what a good thing.

But some of them are lazy and lazy, so they don't look down on it. It's only two pennies, and I have to work for you, a fool can do it.

Liu Dazhuang glanced at these people, stretched out his hand and pulled out a child with the most eager eyes and the cleanest clothes, and pushed it in front of Qin Duanxing.

"It's him, give him your life in the future."

Qin Duanxing looked at the thin child and said softly, "Xiaowen, can you do it?" It must be delivered on time, and no food is allowed to be stolen. ”

"I can do it!" The child named Xiaowen straightened his chest, "I also want to be like you, working to make money to support myself." ”

"Good!" Qin Duanxing patted him on the shoulder, then turned to Liu Dazhuang and said, "You have to guarantee that in the future, those who beg for food in this area will no longer be able to intercept me and Xiaowen." ”

"Okay, all the brothers in this piece will listen to me, and no one will be allowed to embarrass and Xiaowen in the future."

Liu Dazhuang said loudly to his younger brothers, "In addition to begging for food in the future, we will pay attention to see if there is any work we can do?" We can't have a lifetime of food. ”

Except for Xiaowen, a group of little beggars dispersed.

Lin Qingwen came over from behind, patted Qin Duanxing's little head, and said with a smile: "I also know the truth of 'capture the thief and capture the king first', it's very powerful!" ”

Duan Xing smiled shyly and whispered: "Actually, they are not bad boys, no one will lead and they will not mess around." ”

He pushed Xiaowen in front of Qingwen and said with some uneasiness: "The girl heard it, right?" My future work will be divided into two parts for Xiaowen. ”

Qingwen looked at the child named "Xiaowen" carefully, and asked softly, "Does Xiaowen have no home anymore?" ”

"No, girl, he's been living with me in a ruined temple for the past two years." End road.

"Okay, you go to deliver the goods first, and I'll take Xiaowen back to the workshop."

Qingwen no longer hesitated, she could support this child again, "In the future, all your work will be handed over to Xiaowen, and I will arrange another place for you and Fang Ya." ”

"Oh? Oh. ”

Qin Duanxing said "oh" twice, a trace of doubt flashed in his dark eyes, but he didn't ask anything.

Qingwen took Xiaowen back to the workshop, instructed Cuiliu and Bihe to bathe him, and first changed into a new set of winter clothes that she had made for Duanxing.

If you want to go out to make deliveries, the outfit on him can't do it.

Although it is quite clean, it is too shabby, and I am afraid that other guests will not like it.

Leaving two taels of silver for Cuiliu, she asked her to make another set of winter clothes for Duanxing and Xiaowen, and Qingwen took Jiahui out and continued to buy materials for Mu Nanfeng.

The capital is worthy of being the capital, it is indeed very prosperous, all kinds of shops are lined up, and there are dozens of silk villages in the larger ones.

Qingwen bought two satin horses in a silk shop called "Jinxiuzhuang", one "Tianshui Bi" and the other "Snow Blue".

She and Jia Hui walked out with the material, and met a girl who walked around surrounded by a group of maids, looking at her with unkind eyes.
