Chapter 421 You seem to have convinced me

All kinds of lanterns are raised high, making the street scene extraordinarily beautiful.

"All right, all you kind young masters and ladies, masters and madams, please give me something to eat!"

An old woman knelt by the side of the road in worn, patched clothes, holding a porcelain bowl with a corner missing.Kneeling next to her was a seven or eight-year-old girl, who was watching the pedestrians coming and going timidly and eagerly.

"Please take pity on me, the old woman and my little granddaughter. Please do me a favor, ladies and gentlemen, please give me something to eat!"

Her voice was hoarse and sad, and her face was dirty, but it was not difficult to see the weather on her face.

"Go away!" A middle-aged man in fancy clothes walked by with a belly full, kicked the old woman and knocked her over, "Unlucky, no wonder I lost money!"

The old woman's thin body couldn't get up for a while, and the little girl cried and went to help her, trying to lift the old woman up: "Grandma, grandma, do you hurt, let's go home.

We don't want food, let's go home, woo woo..."

The old woman sat up shivering: "Ninny, what do you eat when you get home?"

"Grandma, if you go on like this, you will be beaten to death, woo woo...

Grandma, my daughter can eat anything, let's go out of the city, dig wild vegetables and eat leaves, it's better than grandma being beaten, woo woo..."

The old woman stretched out her rough hand, like old bark, to wipe the little girl's tears: "My daughter doesn't cry, grandma doesn't hurt, grandma doesn't hurt at all."

"Dangling—" A piece of broken silver fell into the old woman's broken bowl, making a crisp sound.

The old woman looked at the silver in astonishment, then raised her head to look at the person throwing the silver in disbelief, and immediately pulled the little girl to kneel on the ground and kowtowed desperately: "Thank you, great benefactor, thank you, great benevolent person!"

Oh my god, silver, this turned out to be silver!She has been begging for so long, and occasionally kind passers-by donate steamed buns, buns, cakes, or copper coins, but no one has ever given money.A young man with such a generous hand and such good looks must have been transformed by a god.

As if feeling that kowtow to thank her was not enough to express her gratitude, she tugged the little girl hard, and the little girl quickly kowtowed, imitating the words of the old woman: "Thank you, great kindness, thank you, great kindness!"

"It's nothing, it's a little effort, it really doesn't have to be like this." Chang Xuanjin walked away, saw the two were still kowtowing, and said, "I'm still young, if I were to be shot by you, wouldn't my life be shortened?
It's late at night, it's not safe for you, the old and the young, to go out, you'd better go home, wait for me a moment. "

The old and the young looked at each other, watching Chang Xuanjin leave.

Bai Qianchen caught up with Chang Xuanjin in surprise: "Brother Chang, do you know that many beggars are not real beggars?"

"Although I am young, I have been in business with my father for many years, so I naturally know."

Bai Qianchen whispered: "You know that if you give them back the money, you are not afraid that they are liars? It's really embarrassing to be cheated out of money."

Chang Xuanjin stood still and looked at him firmly: "The other beggars may be liars, but the two of them are not." He turned to the shopkeeper of the bun stall and said, "Ten meat buns."

"Okay!" The shopkeeper's Ma Liu picked up the buns.

Bai Qianchen frowned: "Although I also feel that the old and the young don't seem to be lying, but what if, what if they are really liars?"

"Let's not talk about anything else, did you listen to what they said when they were begging?" Chang Xuanjin took the meat buns and walked back, "The old woman has been begging others for something to eat.

If they are fake beggars, they will shout for money, copper coins and silver!
Moreover, I can't let them starve for the one-in-a-million chance. "

Bai Qianchen still frowned: "Although what you said makes sense, you can only help them for a while, not forever."

"I help for a while, he helps for a while, and every day someone helps for a while, isn't that a lifetime?"

Bai Qianchen nodded thoughtfully: "You seem to have convinced me, what you said makes sense."

Seeing Chang Xuanjin give the meat bun to the old woman, Bai Qianchen also gave her a piece of silver.

The old woman obviously didn't expect that there would be a second person to give the money, and she was taken aback for a moment, crying and laughing at the same time, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Thank you two great benevolent people, thank you two great benevolent people!"

Bai Qianchen stepped aside and said with a smile: "No need, it's just a matter of raising your hands. Huh, where's Xiaoli?"

Bai Qianchen looked around, and saw Mo Li walking from the crowd with a wicked smile.

Bai Qianchen asked curiously: "What evil did you do to laugh like this?"

Mo Li raised his lips and pointed to a direction in the crowd with his chin: "That villain just now!"

Bai Qianchen suddenly realized, felt refreshed, and smiled lowly: "You used that on him, when did it happen?" Xiao Li must have poisoned that person, as for what kind of poison, it's hard to say, it depends on Xiao Li's mood .

Mo Li also lowered his voice: "In the middle of the night, lest he suspect passers-by."

Bai Qianchen smirked and winked: "Tell me, what medicine?"

"It's nothing." Mo Li said nonchalantly, "It's just that his stomach hurts like a knife, and his body is so itchy. It made his life miserable for three days and three nights, and he has a long memory."

Chang Xuanjin saw the two whispering strangely with smiles, and asked curiously, "What are you talking about?"

Mo Li withdrew her smirk: "It's nothing, I just said that I kicked that villain just now and fell."

Chang Xuanjin didn't ask any further questions, but looked at the old and the young: "I don't know where you two live, it's so late, I'll take you home?" Notice.They have no ability to protect themselves, if any disaster is caused by these two pieces of broken silver, it will be his fault.

Bai Qianchen agreed: "Alright, Brother Chang will send them back, so we can rest assured. Xiaoli, I'll go shopping with you again."

Mo Li said: "I will also deliver it."

Mo Li even said that he was going to give it away, so Bai Qianchen could only follow.The three of them walked behind the old woman, and Bai Qianchen was watching to see if anyone was following her.

Leaving the bustling night market, Mo Li asked in a low voice, "Mother-in-law is a local?"

The old woman ate two meat buns on the way, gained strength, and replied: "Yes. My son and daughter-in-law left early. If there is not this little one to take care of, my old lady would have chased them.

My wife is old and can't do much work. She eats everything that can be eaten at home, and sells everything that can be sold, so she can only drag her daughter out to beg. "

As she spoke, she shed emotional tears: "I am also a shameless person, but if there is still a way to survive, why would I abandon my old face to beg? There is really no other way.

Today I met a few great benevolent people, and I don't know if it is the blessings of my old lady's cultivation in several lifetimes. "

Chang Xuanjin sighed: "It's really not easy for an old man to take her with you."

"Yes."

Mo Li asked: "Grandma, have you heard of the Welfare Hall?"
