Fleeing famine with a trading system

Chapter 43 Beggar
[It's ok, Gu Ruan. ] Gui vacated the pan for diapers, put a five-pound rice bag in it, and closed the lid.Then he finished the bag that had been opened.

[Thank you Guiyi, I will rely on your help in the future. ] Gu Ruan sincerely thanked Gui Yi.

[You're welcome, Gu Ruan. ] Guiyi's smile grew bigger.

Gu Ruan took out the pannier from the warehouse, opened the lid of the pannier, gave Zhang Jinhua a look, and said in a breathy voice.

"Five catties of rice."

Zhang Jinhua smiled and nodded, "Let's go."

Gu Ruan carried a pannier on her back, and took out a water bag from the warehouse, hanging it by her waist.

Zhang Jinhua walked out first.

The three of them went back to the door of Heyu Liangpu, this time they didn't wait for the waiter to come out, they went in directly.

"Man, where is your shopkeeper?" Zhang Jinhua looked at the man and asked.

When Xiao Zhang heard the voice, he looked over, saw the three of them, and said with a smile, "Guest officer, how is it? I still think our grain shop is fine, don't call the shopkeeper, I will fill you as much as you want, as long as You speak."

Zhang Jinhua shook his head with a smile, but didn't speak yet.

I heard the shopkeeper's voice coming from the side room inside.

"Xiao Zhang, no matter how stupid you are, you still won't bring in the distinguished guests."

"Okay, shopkeeper." Xiao Zhang, the shopkeeper, didn't make a sound after being told, but responded instead, probably thinking that he was about to open his business and earn money, so he didn't care what the shopkeeper said.

When Gu Ruan heard the shopkeeper's words, she secretly smiled, thinking of a stalk, Cuiguo, smashing her mouth.It's a pity that the person who can share is still in the cave.

"Guest, please." The man made a gesture of invitation, saw the three people walking into the side room, and stepped forward to open the door.

Gu Ruan said in a voice that the three of them could hear, "I'll stay outside."

Zhang Jinhua nodded, Li Dahe didn't speak, and took the basket from Gu Ruan's body.

The two went in, and the man immediately closed the door outside.

He intends to introduce Mi to Gu Ruan.

Looking at the closed door, Gu Ruan couldn't help feeling a little nervous.Seeing that the buddy was about to speak again, he quickly said, "You are busy with your work, I will not disturb you."

The man left without saying anything.

Gu Ruan stood by the counter, sneaking peeks at the closed door from time to time, the clerk was also busy cleaning, and fell silent for a while.

Until I saw a small head peeking in from outside the grain store.

Gu Ruan thought about it, isn't this the little beggar?

The buddy Xiao Zhang saw it, scanned left and right, and walked over.

Gu Ruan thought that the man would chase away the little beggars.

Unexpectedly, the man took out a small, hard pancake from his pocket and handed it to the little beggar.

The little beggar shook his head and said with a smile, "Brother Zhang, I earned some water today, I'll come here to exchange for food."

As he spoke, he took out a water bag from his arms.

Gu Ruan looked familiar, and looked carefully, wasn't it the water bag she gave him?

"That's fine, I'm not short of these bites." The clerk stuffed the pancakes into the little beggar's arms, took the water bag, went to the counter, took out a cup filled with water and poured out about half of it.

Then he took a rice bag and scooped about five catties from the broken rice.Pass it to the little beggar together with the water bag.

The little beggar happily took it, "Thank you Brother Zhang."

Gu Ruan knew that water was valuable, but she didn't expect it to be so valuable, so she couldn't help being a little surprised.

Seeing the little beggar left, the man looked at Gu Ruan's surprised expression and explained with a smile.

"Usually, these children can still ask for food, but now who's... hey, so our shopkeeper couldn't bear it, so we asked them to exchange for water, or better rice. Almost rice."

Gu Ruan understood now, it turned out that changing the water was just an excuse, and indeed the shopkeeper was a kind person.

Gu Ruan sighed in his heart, maybe it was because people were kind, or maybe it was because he lived in a peaceful age, his heart suddenly softened.

Seeing that the little beggar seemed to be passing something to another little beggar who was younger than him, and seeing two people push back, the older little beggar took a sip of water helplessly, and the other smaller beggar smiled Take it and leave.

Immediately afterwards, the little beggar squatted not far away.

Gu Ruan looked at the back room and saw that there was no movement, thinking that the chat would not be finished for a while, and made a decision in her heart.

Gu Ruan looked at the three steamed buns left in the warehouse.

[Guiyi, I will lend you three steamed buns, use them, and return them when the time comes, is that okay? 】

After all, this steamed bun has already been given to Guiyi, and now Guiyi is the owner of this steamed bun, so I have to ask.

[Yes, Gu Ruan.Li Yunqiu sold me thirty big rice balls, can I eat them? 】

She glanced at Gu Ruan and waited for Gu Ruan's answer.

[Yes, eat as much as you want. 】

Gu Ruan secretly took one out of the warehouse, and squeezed the steamed bun flat with her hands behind her back.Until all three are pinched, take it out and have a look, hey~, it's so ugly!But it's edible.

Take the steamed buns and walk to the little beggar.

Without looking at it, the little beggar said, "Great kind man, please give me something to eat and drink, please."

Seeing that no one answered, the little beggar raised his head, looked at Gu Ruan, and said pleasantly.

"Good man, it's you."

I don't know what to think again, my face changed slightly.

"I drank all the water, and there is no way to give it back to you."

Gu Ruan laughed, and handed over the three flat steamed buns in his hand.

The little beggar laughed like a flower, and quickly took it.

"Thank you, great kind man."

The little beggar tried to put the steamed bun in his arms again.

Gu Ruan thought of the scene he just saw.

"I give you conditional."

The little beggar hurriedly protected the three steamed buns, and looked at Gu Ruan warily.

"What conditions?"

"You must eat one now."

The little beggar suddenly had a bitter face, looking at the steamed bun in his arms.

It's not a loss to eat one and leave two for younger siblings.

Seeing him like this, Gu Ruan wanted to laugh. She wasn't so reluctant when she gave it to other little beggars just now. Why is she reluctant to part with eating by herself now.Gu Ruan doesn't have any other intentions to let him eat now, she just thinks that every time the little beggar is reluctant to eat it, she gives it to other beggars, so she wants to let him also pad his stomach.Don't never see each other again next time.

The little beggar held two of them in his arms, took out one and thought about it, then tore off a small half of it, looked at Gu Ruan pleadingly and said.

"I, I, can eat this."

Gu Ruan couldn't help but sigh in her heart again, why does she feel that she has become a bad person now?

"Okay. Let's eat."

Gu Ruan endured the possibility of lice on his head, and softly patted the little beggar's head.

Seeing this, the little beggar quickly put the big part into his bosom and ate the one in one bite.
