Chapter 64
Unexpectedly, at the moment Xiao Yu approached, the young man suddenly stood up, touched Xiao Yu and ran away. Regarding such a situation, Xiao Yu looked puzzled, he didn't understand that he wanted to help him with good intentions. Why did the other party run away without saying a word?
At this moment, I saw Pei Liuguang chasing the boy and shouting, "Stop!"

Xiao Yu was even more puzzled, couldn't help standing up, and asked Pei Huizhao who was beside him: "What happened to Liu Guang? Why did he chase that boy?"

"Can you see if your purse is still there?" Pei Huizhao answered Xiao Yu while looking at Pei Liuguang who was running further and further away.

Reminded by Pei Huizhao, Xiao Yu hurriedly touched his waist, and found that the scarlet purse tied on his belt was gone. He immediately realized something and ran after that boy.

Seeing this situation, Pei Huizhao hurriedly followed Xiao Yu's footsteps, seeing the young man turned left and ran into an alley, Pei Huizhao also ran in with Xiao Yu and Pei Liuguang.

Not far away, the boy was still running, Pei Liuguang obviously had no patience, he jumped in front of the boy, blocking his way, at this moment Xiao Yu also rushed over, stood behind the boy, and Pei Liuguang Together they formed a pincer attack on the young man.

Seeing this situation, the young man was a little flustered, but he didn't intend to beg for mercy. He looked at Pei Liuguang cunningly and then at Xiao Yu who was waiting for an opportunity to escape, when he heard an angry shout from not far away: "A Yuan, don't kneel down yet!" Down!"

Hearing the shout, the boy was obviously taken aback, and then knelt down with a "plop".

Only then did Pei Huizhao and Xiao Yu realize that the shout was coming from behind Pei Liuguang, and hurriedly walked around Pei Liuguang to look over, only to see an old man in ragged clothes running not far away. , Pei Huizhao suddenly discovered that the other party turned out to be Uncle Xun from the beggar's place in Mao'er Hutong.

And Pei Liuguang also turned around at this time, and when he saw the identity of the person coming, he was also taken aback, then took a few steps forward, and asked, "Uncle, why are you here?"

"It's not because of A Yuan," Uncle Xun said while glancing at the kneeling boy, approaching Pei Liuguang, knelt down beside the boy with a "plop" and said to the Pei siblings, "A Yuan offended both of you." My benefactor, please don’t forget the villain’s mistakes and forgive him this time.” Then he pulled the young man to kowtow.

Seeing this situation, Pei Liuguang hurriedly stepped forward to help Uncle Xun up, and asked suspiciously, "Who is he? Why haven't I seen him before when my sister and I went to Maoer Hutong?"

"Hey——" Uncle Xun sighed and explained, "Ayuan just came here a few days ago. I heard from him that his family was also a scholar. Because the ancestral grave was taken away by the local gentry, his father went to sue the government. I didn't expect the squire He had already colluded with the county magistrate, and his father was convicted of slander by the county magistrate as soon as he handed over the certificate. His father was so angry that he passed away within a few days after returning home. Unexpectedly, as soon as his father left, several uncles in the family He was dishonest, and when he was young, he divided up the only five acres of paddy fields in his family and drove A Yuan out of the house. A Yuan had no choice but to escape. When I was begging on the street a few days ago, Seeing that he was pitiful, I took him to Mao'er Alley."

"So that's how it is." After hearing Uncle Xun's words, Pei Liuguang took a step forward, helped the young man up, and said, "Get up too. Since you are a child of a scholar's family, why are you doing this kind of nonsense?"

Asked by Pei Liuguang, he was somewhat ashamed, and the young man lowered his head and replied: "Three younger children in the alley are sick and have no money for treatment, and I heard from Uncle Xun that everyone hasn't had a meal for a long time. I’m full, that’s why I—” As he spoke, the boy’s head drooped even lower.
