There are a few more children in the village who help out, which is really a trivial matter that is not worth noting. Pei Feng has always been clumsy and careful, because she had found the women of the tenant family to make cotton nails before, she probably knew some roots, and found two mothers-in-law who could speak well to visit the children's homes first with the convenience of sharing the work, and it was really like what Qingying said, these half-grown little girls had a very difficult time at home, either there were a few younger brothers under their feet, or there were unsuccessful fathers and brothers on their heads.

The most miserable little girl's father is a rotten gambler, the three fingers of her right hand have been chopped off by the debt collector, and her mother doesn't know where she was sold, not only to take care of the waste father, but also to have two younger brothers who can't say anything, and the whole family is counting on her Zhang Luo. This year just entered the winter, the younger brother died, the little girl took away the younger brother, more and more the rest of the brother looked like eyeballs, as a result a few days ago she went out to beg for broth, as soon as she went back, she couldn't find it, only her father picked his teeth and said that she could let her see the younger brother again as long as she did her duty,

According to the guesses of those women, most of the little girl's younger brother has been sold by the rotten gambler, and the remaining little girl is kept because she still needs someone to serve her, and secondly, the little girl has to be raised for another two years before it is worth it.

Pei Feng thought about it and handed it over to Tong Wu, and after less than half a day, a little sick cat-like little girl was carried in front of Pei Feng.

"I gave the surname Lu a tael of silver to buy this little girl, and as soon as he turned around, he didn't know which gambling house to go to, and the wife and children who lost his conscience couldn't stop his gambling sex, and you don't have to worry about the rest, only a bunch of our brothers cooked. I asked my mother-in-law to brush this little girl, the clothes on her body belong to my daughter, this girl is also pitiful, my girl is only nine years old, and her clothes are rich in her sleeves."

Pei Feng nodded, understanding that Tong Wu was a man who had a beginning and an end to his work, and it would be difficult for this little girl's father to come back in the future.

Looking at the little girl who was trembling, she took a dime of silver from her waist and came out.

Tong Wu waved his hand again and again: "I can't help it, Miss Peifeng, in my Tong Wu's eyes, you are the general who marches and fights with us, how can you ask for money to do things for the general."

"I'm asking you to do something, so you should be able to figure it out, how can you make extra expenses? The extra money is Sister-in-law Huang's hard-earned money."

As he spoke, Pei Feng touched the little girl's yellow hair that was neatly combed.

The little girl shrunk her shoulders and didn't dare to move, her thin neck seemed to be only a few fingers thick, so that people could hold it in her hands at will.

Pei Feng led her all the way to the stove room, Tu Nan was studying with a few mothers-in-law on the stove how to make a goose for the girl, and turned around to look at the little girl who didn't even weigh half a goose.

"Peifeng? Where did you find this little girl?"

Pei Feng didn't say much, pushed the little girl's shoulder, and pushed her in front of Tu Nan.

"Over to you."

Tunan, carrying the goose: "...... Peifeng, tell me where this little girl came from."

Pei Feng didn't care, as if there was a fire behind his buttocks, he turned around and left, and when he walked to the gate of the courtyard, he was almost running. ….

Tu Nan couldn't stop calling her, and turned to look at the little girl, "What's your name?"

The skinny little girl finally knew the person who presided over the meat distribution, swallowed her saliva, and whispered: "My mother called me Nan'er, but my mother is gone, and my father called me three taels, saying that when I was fourteen years old, he could sell me for three taels of silver, and Uncle Tong only paid one or two silver, so he bought me."

As she spoke, the little girl's eyes blinked, and tears fell as if they had broken their threads.

Tu Nan was stunned, her expression became extremely soft, one hand was still pinching the goose's neck, and she took the little girl in her arms with her free hand.

The sunlight fell sporadically in the courtyard, and Tu Nan looked up, and then at the little girl in his arms.

"Miss Tunan, at first glance, I thought you were carrying two geese to the pot together."

Tu Nan turned his head to look over, and saw Xia He leaning on the courtyard door with a few burdens and laughing.

"Miss Xiahe, why are you here?" Loosen the three twos,

Tu Nan greeted Xia He.

"Didn't the young lady say that she wanted to add clothes to the little girls who came to help in the yard? This bag is the underwear that I and the stupid apricot gave the little girls last night, we are clumsy, and the cotton clothes are made slowly, this bag is made by Sister An, the little girl is young, short jacket and pants and wears. The largest bag is made by Qingying, she is skillful, and the things are made so much and fine, I will send it to you quickly, so that she still wants to embroider on it...... Looking at the size of this little girl, Qingying has made it more suitable, we are not as careful as her, she is afraid that she has already measured the size of these little girls with her eyes."

Chattering, Xia He put a few bags on the clean stone platform next to the courtyard wall.

Tu Nan hurriedly thanked him.

Xia He glanced at the little girl named Sanliang again.

"Looking at this little girl, I think of the year when the young lady first entered the Ning'an Bo Mansion, the stupid apricot was bullied to ashes, and only the young lady didn't dislike her, and at that time, the young lady also hugged her like this."

Saying that, Xia He pinched her handkerchief and breathed a sigh of relief, she was also strong at that time, and she thought about Xie Feng'an in her heart, and saw that the second young lady who had just entered the door was willing to coax a crying little girl, and she still felt that people were pretending.

Now that I think about it, I am so ashamed that I hate to slap myself with a pair of red slaps.

After the shame was over, Xia He raised his head and saw Tu Nan's face with a smile.

"Thank you, Miss Xiahe, for the compliment."

"Huh? Who, who praised you?" Xia He's face was inexplicable, and he didn't know where Tu Nan's joy came from.

Tu Nan still laughed.

A pair of eyes were smiling.

——

At dinner, Zhao Surui gnawed on roast goose legs, eating with a mouthful of oil, and at the same time wanting to eat elbows.

Since the day of the fight, in order to embarrass Tu Nan, he said that he didn't want to eat chicken, mutton, and pork, and he ate either stewed fish or steamed crab at every meal, as well as duck and spiced soft-shelled turtle cooked in wine.

Fat, dangling on a plate, the fat skin can melt on the tip of the tongue.

Especially when the meat is divided after the daily exercise, Zhao Surui can't take his eyes off when he sees others going home happily with meat bowls or sitting on the ground and feasting. ….

He really didn't lack that half a pound of pork.

Who is he? He is the real prince of Tianhuang and the noble prince and grandson, how many delicacies of the mountains and seas have he not eaten since he was a child? How can you worry about the pork you are tired of eating?

"Young lady, your big goose is so fragrant."

Liu Tianxing, who helped deliver the vegetables, looked at the golden roast goose, sniffled and smelled the aroma, and her head was almost attached to the goose meat.

Zhao Surui poked her head with the tail of chopsticks:

"It's just a few mouthfuls of meat, why do you always look like you're not productive?"

Liu Tianxing straightened up and laughed:

"I'm not very greedy, the goose meat is in you, young lady, and the rest of the goose bones and the other Tunan girl boiled it in sauce, and added radish and cabbage to cook it together, and it is also fragrant, just right for rice."

Zhao Surui glanced at her, and felt more and more that this fool was uninformed: "After all, there is not much meat, and the poor eat it."

"Who said there was no meat? The pork at noon was cooled and sliced, but it was fragrant!"

"Really?" Zhao Surui still looked contemptuous and disbelieving, squinting at her, "Why don't I believe it? It's just leftover meat, what's so fragrant?"

The meat she likes to eat was said so, Liu Tianxing's mouth pursed, and she looked at the "young lady" with a pair of big eyes, and after a while, the little girl suddenly said loudly:

"Young lady, you must want to eat my pork but can't eat it, so you deliberately provoke me with words, just waiting for me to bring you meat and vegetables to taste! If you want to eat, just say it, I, I can share it with you...... A little."

The little girl pinched her fingers, and finally pinched out a "little", which was really not enough to feed the chickens.

Zhao Surui laughed: "Look at your stingy appearance, where can I be hungry for your meat? My whole plate of roast goose

I can't eat it."

Liu Tianxing looked at him with suspicion, like a thief, and after looking at it for a while, the little girl waved her hand heartily: "Then I'll go eat first, young lady, you wait for me for a while, I'll come back when I'm full."

The roast goose skin is crispy and fragrant, and the aroma is full of flavor when you eat it, and the taste is even more unique when dipped in sweet and sour sauce.

Eating the roast goose carelessly in his mouth, Zhao Surui listened to Liu Tianxing run out of the yard, directly let go of the chopsticks in his hand, and let them fall on the plate.

He really didn't lack the cold pork that was cut into slices.

Who is he? He is Emperor Zhaode! The real prince and grandson of the noble prince, the real rich come from all over the world to worship! How many delicacies have you never eaten since I was a child? How can you worry about the pork you are tired of eating? It's old again, and it's cold, and it's unappetizing when you listen to it.

How could he bother to cheat a fool out of the mouth of a fool?

He is the invincible Emperor Zhaode! He—even if he really cheated on Shi'er, he would never let a fool see it!

"Humph!".
