The creditor favors the little orphan girl alone

Chapter 1 Creditors come to the door
Tao Qiqi, just like her name, is miserable.

His mother died at the age of 10, and his father died at the age of 13.

Just leave a oil bottle ten years younger than himself.

Tao Qiqi is 14 years old this year.

Every night, Tao Qiqi would watch the big and round moon by the window.

That moon is usually regarded as a big cake by Tao Qiqi.

Tao Qiqi basically only ate one meal a day, and she was so thin that she almost became a piece of paper.

With his parents gone, Tao Qiqi simply couldn't afford to support his family.

In the so-called family, apart from Tao Qiqi and her younger brother Tao Liangliang, there is also a pig.

Sometimes Tao Qiqi wondered if his parents didn't give him and Liang Liang the right names.

Why not long after she was born, the family went bankrupt.Then, after Niang gave birth to Liangliang, Niang died.

"Sister, sister, I'm hungry." Tao Liangliang got off the kang, walked up to Tao Qiqi and shook her vigorously.

Tao Qiqi was already hungry and dizzy, but now she was shaken by Tao Liangliang so purely that she was about to die. "Liangliang, don't shake, I'll get you the steamed buns."

Tao Qiqi staggered towards the kitchen.

The so-called kitchen is four sticks plus a big pot.Not even a place to shelter from the rain.

Tao Qiqi opened the lid of the pot and saw that there was only one boiled potato left in the pot.

Although it was just a potato, Tao Qiqi swallowed with difficulty. "very hungry."

The action of picking up the potato is deliberately slow, so that you can take a few more glances.

"Gudong." It was the sound of swallowing saliva again.

Tao Qiqi took the only remaining potato back to Tao Liangliang's room. "Liang Liang, there are no steamed buns left. There is only one potato left."

Tao Liangliang took the potato with one hand, and threw the potato to the ground in a fit of anger. "I don't want it, I want steamed buns."

Potatoes, just dig a few times in the ground and there will be.But steamed buns cost money. For Tao Qiqi, eating steamed buns is purely a luxury.

"Liang Liang, don't be like this. This is the only one at home." Tao Qiqi weakly picked up the potatoes on the ground, and just as he was about to put them on the table, the potatoes fell to the ground again.

"Boom." There was a small sound, the sound of potatoes falling to the ground.

"Boom." With a loud bang, Tao Qiqi fell to the ground and lost consciousness.

Tao Liangliang was stunned for a while, unable to react for a long time.

By the time Tao Liangliang went up to shake Tao Qiqi, it was already a quarter of an hour later. "Sister, sister, get up."

"Sister, sister, get up quickly, I won't eat steamed buns anymore."

"Sister, sister, don't leave me."

"Wow..." Tao Liangliang burst into tears.

It's not that Tao Liangliang doesn't understand anything, he knows that his parents are like this, they stay still, and then they never show up again.

Tao Liangliang still doesn't know what death is, and she doesn't know if her sister will abandon her like her parents.

"What's the matter?" Peony's father next door rushed over, followed by Peony's mother.

"Uncle Huzi, sister..." Tao Liangliang looked at his neighbor and cried louder.

Only then did Mudan's parents see Tao Qiqi lying on the ground.

Mudan's father picked up Tao Qiqi and put him on the bed. "Mother, Qiqi is still angry, she must have fainted from hunger, go home and get some rice to make some porridge."

Peony's mother nodded. "Okay, I'll go right away."

Mudan's parents' family is not rich, and the leftover rice may be enough to cook a bowl of porridge.

But human life is at stake, how can they sit idly by?
After half an hour.

"Yeah." Tao Qiqi opened her eyes in a daze, she seemed to smell the rice porridge.

Tao Liangliang quickly threw herself down in front of the bed. "Sister, you finally woke up."

"What's wrong with me?" Tao Qiqi supported the bed with both hands, planning to sit up.

"Qiqi, you're finally awake." Mudan's mother just brought in the porridge.

"Ma'am." Tao Qiqi showed a weak smile.

Peony's mother brought the bowl to Tao Qiqi's mouth, and gave her a spoonful of porridge.

"Ma'am, I'm not hungry." Seeing Tao Liangliang swallowing his saliva, Tao Qiqi wanted to give the porridge to his younger brother.

Tao Liangliang quickly shook her head. "Sister, I'm not hungry, I ate potatoes just now."

Mudan's mother also tried to persuade her with kind words. "Qiqi, eat quickly, eat while it's hot."

Tao Qiqi's eyes were full of gratitude. "Thank you ma'am."

It's been such a toss all night.

It's a pity that misfortunes never come singly, and the creditors came to the door.

"Tao Qiqi, Tao Qiqi." A young male voice sounded.

Tao Qiqi slapped his head with his palm, sighed loudly, the debt collector came again.

Tao Qiqi hurriedly pinched his thigh with his hands, making himself cry.

This scene just happened to be seen by the creditor who had just entered the door.

Let’s talk about this creditor, he is 20 years old, and his name is Yuan Bao.

Yuan Bao's parents were landowners in this town and leased their fields to these farmers.

But Yuan Bao's parents are not bad people either. Although they rent out the land, the price is very cheap.

An acre of land is only charged five cents a month.

He is often called a great benevolent person by others.

This Yuan Bao, who was collecting rent with his father a few years ago, met Tao Qiqi who had a pair of talking eyes.

Yuan Bao liked this white and tender little girl very much, and told his parents about it.Yuan Bao's parents did not object either.

But after three years, when Yuan Bao came here again, he was taken aback by the little girl in front of him.

The little girl who was originally white and tender has become yellow and thin, as thin as a stick.

Yuan Bao heard from his parents that Tao Qiqi's father died a year ago, but he never thought that she would be so thin.

"Tao Qiqi." Yuan Bao pretended to ask for debt with a cold face. "It's time to pay back."

It was the earth-shattering that Tao Qiqi "cried". "Woooooo, creditor, I have no money to pay the rent."

Yuan Bao almost laughed out loud, cleared his throat, and calmed himself down. "I don't care, if you can't pay the money, you can go back with me and be a maid."

Tao Qiqi was taken aback.Be a maid?Doesn't that mean you don't have to go hungry?
Yuan Bao knew what Tao Qiqi was thinking. "Two pennies a month, you can pay off the rent by being a maid for a year."

Tao Qiqi raised his head in astonishment. "Is there any money left?"

Yuan Bao nodded. "Yes, the other maids pay five cents a month, but you have to pay back the money. I'll give you two cents a month."

Tao Qiqi showed an excited expression, but then realized that he still has a bottle of oil. "But, my brother."

"You want to bring your brother there too?" Yuan Bao raised his eyebrows and raised his voice.

Tao Qiqi smiled obsequiously. "Creditor, is it okay? I don't want any wages, let me bring my brother."

Yuan Bao almost burst into laughter again. "Ahem. Okay. Then you won't have any salary this year."

Tao Qiqi quickly went into the house to pack his bags, for fear that Yuan Bao would go back on his word.

In less than a cup of tea, Tao Qiqi pulled Tao Liangliang to stand upright in front of Yuan Bao.

"Have you packed it?" Yuan Bao couldn't help asking when he saw that Tao Qiqi didn't have any packages in his hand.

Tao Qiqi chuckled. "My brother and I have nothing left, only the pig in the pigsty."

"Then what are you waiting for? Take that pig and let's go together." Yuan Bao waved his hand and took the lead to go out.

Tao Qiqi rushed over, took the pig, dragged Tao Liangliang, and followed Yuan Bao away.

"Qiqi, where are you going?" Mudan saw Qiqi at the door of the house.

"Peony, I'll go to Yuan's house to be a maid, and I'll bring Liang Liang with me." Tao Qiqi waved vigorously at Mudan. "You help me tell Uncle Hu Zi and Auntie, so they don't worry."

"Oh, good." Peony also waved her hand vigorously, almost breaking her own arm.

The creditor Yuan Bao spoke impatiently. "Tao Qiqi, are you still leaving?"

"Here we come." Tao Qiqi took the pig with one hand and Tao Liangliang with the other, and left the desolate home bouncing after Yuan Bao.
