"Sir, thank you for your money, can you let me follow you!" A voice from behind Zhao Hai startled him.

Zhao Hai looked back and saw a short Zhao Hai with a shaggy straw head, who could not distinguish between men and women, standing behind him, holding a silver dollar in his hand, but his eyes were amazingly bright.

"You, you...... What are you doing? Zhao Hai was a little frightened, and his tone stumbled.

"Uncle, don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person, this silver dollar was rewarded by you just now." The humane, the voice was very crisp.

Zhao Hai looked at the silver dollar in his hand and remembered that it was the wanderer who was squatting in the corner of the wall just now. At that time, Hei Gulongdong couldn't see the appearance of people at all, and he gave them money out of the feeling that he had fallen into the world, and he wanted to be followed.

Zhaohai waved his hand and said, "You're welcome, you can take it......" After speaking, he turned around and left.

But he didn't go far before Zhao Hai stopped, because the man behind him kept a distance from him, and the two walked one after the other, and he turned around and asked, "Why do you keep following me?" ”

When the man saw Zhaohai turn around and talk to him, he hurriedly ran forward and said happily, "Uncle, what do you command?" A pair of sparkling eyes revealed anticipation.

"Don't dare to take orders, please don't follow me anymore......" Zhaohai persuaded with kind words.

As soon as Zhaohai's words fell, he saw the man kneeling on the ground with a "poof", and begged: "Uncle, please be merciful and take me in!" I'm so scared, if you don't take me in, I won't live long!" And when he had said that, the man began to weep.

Zhaohai listened to his words with sadness, as if he had endured many hardships, his heart softened, and he stretched out his hand to help him up and said, "Don't cry, I see that you are not old, what about your family?" I still have some money here, you can take it all......" Zhao Hai said as he pulled the money into his pocket.

The person's face was wet with tears, and the stains on his face were dimly revealed, Zhaohai took advantage of the street lamp on the side of the street to take a closer look, this person is fifteen or sixteen years old, and he is still a child!

"I ...... I...... Family members who are long gone...... I came with the escape...... There is a plague in our hometown...... There was a famine, and many people died......" The child sobbed and said, Zhaohai saw that he was very pitiful, sighed and said, "...... Take the money, I'll ...... That's all I can do for you! With that, he shoved all the money in his pocket into the boy's hand, and turned away ruthlessly.

This time the boy did not follow, he stood in the night wind, his hands clutching the money tightly, his unkempt hair and ragged clothes swaying in the wind, pulling his shadow longer......

Zhao Hai hurriedly returned to the Xu Mansion in the shade of the trees in the night, the wall lamps on the marble pillars illuminated the entire courtyard as if it were day, he walked quickly through the "Yuehuixuan", crossed the stone bridge, and went straight to the backyard.

Who knew that Xu Manyun was waiting for him on the pavilion corridor of "Moon Gazetteer" early, she was sitting on a bamboo and rattan soft chair, and in front of her was an amber round table delicately filled with tea and dried fruits, and Xu Manyun was elegantly holding a cup of tea and savoring it.

As soon as Zhao Hai walked through the moon gate into the back courtyard, he stood still and saw Xu Manyun sitting on the pavilion porch drinking tea, and she also looked back at Zhao Hai meaningfully. Zhao Hai really gasped a few times in his heart at this moment, he hated his uselessness, and every time he saw Xu Manyun, he was as cramped and uneasy as a mouse seeing a cat.

This woman is really in harmony with herself.
