Ye Han picked up the red bean soup in his right hand, watched Wang Qiaofu finish the whole bowl of red bean soup, and watched him burst into tears, "Uncle Wang, why are you crying?"

Wang Qiaofu pulled his sleeves and wiped away the tears on his face, "The red bean soup is so delicious, it's just a little hot!"

Immediately, he slowly put the empty bowl back on the tray in the maid's hand.

In the wooden tray, there is a small round circle, and the empty bowl put back by the king woodcutter has the bottom of the bowl completely overlapping with the small circle.

He thought for a moment, then moved the empty bowl to the side.

"Uncle Wang. ”

Ye Han glanced at the red bean soup in his hand, and turned to look at Wang Qiaofu, "There is still a bowl here." ”

"Haha!"

Wang Qiaofu smiled, "This red bean soup! A bowl is just right, and you will get tired of drinking too much." ”

Ye Han didn't think much about it, picked up the red bean soup, pecked it gently, and put it in his mouth.

"It's sweet!"

He said something vaguely, and then drank the entire bowl of red bean soup in one gulp.

The soup is not hot at all, it is served after it has cooled.

"Brother Ng!"

At this time, Wang Qiaofu bowed slightly to the old housekeeper, "My poor nephew, I have to trouble my brother to take care of it more in the future." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Ye Han, "You stay in the mansion in the future, watch and listen more, don't act lightly, and if you don't understand something, go and ask Uncle Wu for advice." ”

After speaking, he dragged Ye Han to the old housekeeper.

Ye Han's eyes were confused, and he didn't pay attention to Wang Qiaofu's kindness at all, he stiffened his neck and stood in front of the old housekeeper.

Seeing this scene, Wang Qiaofu was stunned, stretched out his right hand and pressed Ye Han's head, wanting him to salute the old housekeeper.

Ye Han did not resist, and bowed slightly with Wang Qiaofu's movements.

"Uncle Wu!"

Then, he looked at the old housekeeper and shook his head, "Ye Han doesn't want to be a housekeeper, so he just wants to be by Uncle Wang's side." ”

In his heart, he strongly rejected being a slave.

Even, he began to be restless all over his body, wanting to hit someone.

Hearing this, the old housekeeper looked at Wang Qiaofu, "Your nephew doesn't buy your account, you have to know how many people in the entire Houshan City want to enter the mansion as slaves and maids." ”

Wang Qiaofu glanced at Ye Han, saw that he had a resolute face, and shook his head, "Ye Han, you have to think clearly, in Houwu City, if you want to find a way out, it is a good choice to enter the Han Mansion, especially those of us who have no background." ”

"Think it through!"

Ye Han nodded and said lightly, "Uncle Wang, let's go back." ”

"Good!"

Wang Qiaofu didn't say much, bent down to pick up the black money bag on the ground, and walked briskly towards the back street with Ye Han.

"There's one more woodcutter!"

The old butler sighed, and then turned and went into the courtyard.

"Take it!"

Wang Qiaofu's face did not show the slightest anger, threw the money bag in his hand to Ye Han, and led him to the main road in the back street.

There are a lot of people crying here, all of them poor people who have lost their cattle.

They hugged each other and wept bitterly!

The crying is also mixed with the heart-rending shouts of children!

They shouted, "Grandpa, Grandma, Auntie......"

Sell children!

In the back streets, these poor people were left with houses and children in addition to their cattle.

These houses are shabby, and they are in the back streets, and they are not worth two pennies.

In the end, these families who lost their cattle could only embark on the road of selling their children, and they could only give up one and let the rest live.

"Wait!"

Standing in the chaotic crowd, Wang Qiaofu held Ye Han's right hand with his left hand and raised it high, while Ye Han had a black money bag in his right hand.

A moment of silence!

All around, everyone looked at Wang Qiaofu with a puzzled expression.

At this moment, the woodcutter untied the black rope of the money bag, poured the nine ingots inside to the ground, glanced at the adults and children who were crying, and said loudly: "There are forty-five taels of silver here, and if you scrape together three or four taels of silver, you can buy five cows, live well, and live happily together as a family." ”

There was a complete silence in the field!

"Do you want to pay back the money?"

A woman with tears stained on her face, staring at the white flowers on the ground, said in a trembling voice: "We have nothing to pledge, and we can't even pay the interest. ”

In Houwu City, the rich and some obscene temples lend money, and they all have to charge three or four percent of the interest, which is profitable, and people can never afford to pay it back.

"No!"

Wang woodcutter retrieved a three- or four-year-old child from a big man with a scar, and helped him wipe away the tears on his face, "Bao, don't cry......"

The backstreet area is not small, but Wang Qiaofu knows almost everyone present.

After all, these backstreet residents have lived here for generations, and they have known each other since their ancestors.

Wang Qiaofu looked at the woman and smiled, "I have no children and no daughters, what do I want your money for!"

As he spoke, he glanced at Ye Han and then looked at everyone, "This is Ye Han, a distant nephew of mine, whose family was famine, came to take refuge in me." ”

He paused, and then said, "I'm too old, who knows if there will be tomorrow after living today, and you will help take care of this child in the future." ”

The next moment, on the entire main road in the back street, everyone knelt on the ground and bowed three times to Wang Qiaofu and Ye Han.

"What is this for!"

Wang Qiaofu took Ye Han and wanted to help these people up.

However, they had just picked one up, and the next moment, they were on their knees again.

At this time, the woman walked up to Wang Qiaofu and Ye Han with four children, the eldest was eleven or twelve years old, and the younger was only two or three years old, "Uncle Wang, Ah Feng and Ah Hua were both rescued by you." ”

After speaking, she took the four children and kowtowed to the woodcutter three more times.

In the afternoon of the same day, the villagers in the whole back street pooled together another five taels of silver, and bought back five cows from the front street and the next city.

A storm gradually subsided.

It's just five cows and fifty taels of silver, but it can break up the wives of forty-one families.

Early the next morning, outside the courtyard of Wang Qiaofu, there were piles of rice bran, bird eggs, dried mountain mushrooms, etc., piled up and bagged, neatly and neatly.

"Ye Han!"

Wang Qiaofu kicked Ye Han and smiled, "Move the hearts of these villagers into the house." ”

As he spoke, he seemed to think of something, and looked at Ye Han, "Ye Han, you don't blame me, blame me for giving the money exchanged for tiger skins to the villagers." ”

Hearing this, Ye Han grabbed a handful of rice bran and smiled, "Uncle Wu, this rice bran is shiny, and it looks like a good rice bran, it must be delicious, even better than meat, because rice bran is sweet, and meat is sad." ”

"Haha!"

Wang Qiaofu took a deep look at Ye Han and frowned, "Ye Han, tell me honestly, aren't you really a spirit?"

Ye Han, "......"

Seeing that Ye Han didn't speak, Wang Qiaofu shook his head, "I'm sixty years old, I've seen a lot of people, I've encountered a lot of things, and I've always been very accurate in seeing people, but I can't see through you." ”

As he spoke, he grabbed a thumb-sized bird egg with black spots, and the next moment, with a flick of his left index and middle fingers, he made a small gap in the eggshell.

"Suck!"

He lowered his head and sucked the egg.

Flattered!

"It's delicious!"

Still unsatisfied, he stretched out his thin hand again, couldn't help but take two bird eggs, and then walked towards the back house mountain, pinning a dark machete behind him.

Life goes on!
