"Don't worry, my girl has already gone to find her."

Feng Yunqing said, looking at the roof without a roof. There were no tiles. What if it rains?

The old man and the little beggar were delighted when they heard this and quickly thanked them.

Feng Yunqing frowned and asked, "You live here, what will you do if it rains?"

"When it rains, we just take shelter. What can we do?"

The little beggar said very relaxedly, as if the rain did not pose a threat to them at all.

"Then tell me, what's going on with that awesome guy?"

"Madam, do you believe what I say?" the little beggar asked.

Feng Yunqing laughed. She felt that this child was not like an eight or nine-year-old child, but an adult who was well versed in the world.

Also, if he was simple-minded, he wouldn't be able to feed the beggars here.

"Why do you think I don't believe what you say? Then tell me, what is going on? If there is something hidden, that Niu Er can be cured. I am the doctor."

The little beggar's eyes lit up: "Are you really a doctor?"

Feng Yunqing nodded: "Yes."

She paused and said, "I can help you take a look later."

These beggars are more or less sick, but a place to live must be provided for them first.

"That's great, thank you ma'am. I told you everything."

The little beggar cried immediately and wiped his tears: "Brother Niu is not a bad person at all as they said. He is a good person. He is so fierce. In fact, he is protecting the small traders in the city. There are us beggars.

If he doesn't go against the government, the government will forcefully collect protection fees from the vendors and drive beggars like us out of the county.

Also before the severe drought, the county magistrate conscripted a group of young adults to serve as corvees in the county. However, those who went to serve as corvees never came back, and none of them ever came back.

That's why Brother Niu went against the county magistrate in order to protect the people in the city. It's just that the people don't understand at all, and they say that he bullies men and dominates women. How can he bully men and dominate women? "

Fengyun listened thoughtfully to the little beggar's words, saying that corvee service existed everywhere, even in Dongchen.

It's just that they will not serve for more than one year. After one year, they will be released home and each person will be given money.

This is different from what the little beggar said, so the county magistrate here must be up to something.

Let's ask Chu Yunjin to check it out later. Emperor Shunde's empire cannot be ruined by these little people.

"Don't you people here know that the stock corvee will not last more than one year, and if you are released after one year, the government will still give you money? Don't you know?"

The little beggar said: "How is that possible? During the severe drought last year, the county magistrate recruited more people, saying they were going to build the reservoir. So far, no one has come back. This year, after the severe drought, another group of people were recruited. It is also said that the imperial court asked people to build a reservoir.

How big and how long will it take to repair the reservoir here?
  At that time, Brother Niu stood up to fight against the county magistrate again and refused to let the government officials arrest people. However, he was weak on his own. The county magistrate also said that he would get money if he went there, so the young and middle-aged men who were conscripted turned against Brother Niu. .

In the end, Brother Niu couldn't fight and was beaten by the policemen. Brother Niu was injured on the spot.

Sister-in-law Niu went to the medical clinic in the county to see the doctor on her back, but the county magistrate had warned him in advance that they were not allowed to see him.

Sister-in-law Niu Er was in a hurry today, so she acted violently at the door of the hospital. "

"Then why don't the people in the city understand?"

Feng Yunqing was puzzled. In the scene he just saw, Brother Niu looked like a treacherous and evil person. The little beggar said angrily: "It's not like those people are short-sighted and listened to the county magistrate's lies. For the sake of two taels of silver, they said Brother Niu was lying."

Feng Yunqing understood.

It is estimated that when the county magistrate recruited people, he still gave those people money, and those people would even risk their lives for you for that little money.

Feng Yunqing sighed, it wasn't the drought that was causing the problem.

It seems that the county magistrate also took advantage of the severe drought last year and this year, and the people had no food to eat and had no way out, so he took the opportunity to impose corvee labor.

At the very least, the common people would get money when they went to do corvee work, and they would have food to eat when they went out, so they would not starve to death at home.

"How do you know so clearly?" Feng Yunqing asked.

"Brother Niu will bring us food from time to time, just listen to his complaints."

"Does this mean you are protected by him?"

The little beggar nodded: "Brother Niu was also a beggar before. He was as strong as an ox, so he named himself Niu."

No wonder, Feng Yunqing understood. She said how could this little beggar feed so many people by himself.

She asked: "Then Brother Niu can't take care of you anymore, and it's not an option for you to live here. How about I find a place for you to live, at least with a shelter from the wind and rain. As for how to survive, it depends on It’s up to you to do your own thing.”

The old man murmured a few times, and then the little beggar asked again: "Madam, do you want to find a house for us to live in?"

Feng Yunqing nodded: "Yes, are you willing?"

"What are your conditions, madam?"

Feng Yunqing really laughed now. This kid was so defensive, he thought she had some purpose.

She shook her head: "I don't have any conditions. I just see how hard it is for you, so I just want to make it easier for you, because when my son was taken away, he was also left in a ruined temple to be a beggar for several years."

The little beggar was a little unbelievable, and then said: "Madam, we don't need it. If you really want to help us, just take the little sister away. She is so young and we have no way to feed her."

Feng Yunqing squatted down and looked at Xiaoqiu: "You little guy is very defensive. Don't worry, I don't have any intentions against you.

You can barely survive living in this ruined temple. What if you get sick one day? What should you do?
  You said you can think of a way, but what if you have nothing else to do? What will they do? You have to think about them. "

The little beggar listened and looked at the few little beggars who were looking at him.

He asked them, "Do you need a house to live in?"

Several little beggars nodded.

The little beggar thought for a moment: "Madam, if you really want to find a place for us to settle down, I want to follow you."

Feng Yunqing was surprised. She didn't expect that this guy's brain was so good until he followed her. He knew that there was a way out by following her.

This boy is not simple, Feng Yunqing admires him very much.

She also thought about it and said: "Okay, but we are from the capital city. Are you sure you want to follow us? This journey is long, are you willing to leave here?"

The little beggar said: "We are beggars originally, and our home is all over the world. Madam is willing to take us in, and we can go anywhere."

"Well, when my girl comes, you can follow us. Stay in the inn for a few days first, and then we can leave together."

With such a smart child, Feng Yunqing was really reluctant to leave him here. If he was trained properly, this child would definitely be a talent in the future.
