The suspicion in Zhu Chongxiu's heart was dispelled by this bright smile.

Such a handsome person, shouldn't come to kidnap and sell her, right?That's right, if it's really a human trafficker, you should have caught her the first time you met her. How could you foolishly waste four meat buns?

In her opinion, Li Cheng at this moment...

So gentle!

She is so good-looking and treats her so well!

Before she knew it, Zhu Chongxiu's cheeks were blushed again, and her little face instantly turned into a ripe and tender peach.

The girl forgot the pseudonym she had prepared, and said in a voice as thin as a mosquito:

"...Zhu Chongxiu."

"Are you a girl?"

Hearing the word Xiu, Li Cheng realized that he had mistaken the gender of the little beggar.

No wonder people look delicate...

He looked at Zhu Chongxiu again, and found that although the little girl had mud on her face and her figure was thin due to starvation, she had exquisite facial features, especially a pair of big watery eyes, which were bright and moving.

This is clearly a beauty embryo.

If you have enough food, dress up carefully, put it on the video site of your previous life, you can get countless likes with a casual smile.

It's because everyone likes good-looking things. For a while, Li Cheng's sympathy became stronger.

He turned to ask:

"Since you have a name, you shouldn't be born a beggar. Why did you end up here? Are you abandoned by your parents?"

"No! My parents are very good to me, but..."

Under Li Cheng's encouraging eyes, Zhu Chongxiu's defense gradually faded, and he became more talkative than before.

She told the whole story of her family.

Li Cheng listened silently, then raised his eyebrows, and put half of the copper coins in his pocket into Zhu Chongxiu's bowl.

"Ah, I don't..."

Having received unexpected help twice in a row, Zhu Chongxiu subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when he thought of his family, he still pursed his lips, knelt down, and changed his words: "...Thank you, thank you!"

"I told you not to kneel."

Li Cheng helped the girl up, and then said:

"This is not a charity, but an investment."

"Investment? I don't quite get it."

"To put it simply, I am quite good at reading. I saw that young girl, you have a spiritual light emanating from the sky, and you have a bright future like no one in the world. So I gave you a favor in advance, in exchange for the future spring to repay you."

"But I... just a little beggar with nothing to live on..."

Zhu Chongxiu understood what Li Cheng said, but he didn't.

She didn't understand why the swan landed and talked to the toad?

Suddenly, she felt a warmth coming from the top of her head.

It turned out that Li Cheng stretched out his sinful hand and gently placed it on the girl's head.

Touch it, touch it...

touch again...

I still wanted to touch it, but Li Cheng held back.

He said earnestly:

"So what about beggars? Don't underestimate yourself, the possibilities of people are infinite...

Don't you hear that princes, generals and ministers would rather have kindness! "

Prince and general, would you rather have a kind?

In just eight words, it hit Zhu Chongxiu's heart directly.

She recalled that in the past, when she watched Mr. Huang in the county swagger through the city on a tall horse, she also felt unwilling.

Why can he be able to enjoy wealth and honor, but he himself will suffer from hunger and cold?

Why can't I replace it?

Difficult to return to, but is it really impossible?Master Huang was not born noble!

Although it was just a daydream, sparks flashed in Zhu Chongxiu's eyes after all.

What's more, in the eyes of the girl, Brother Li Cheng Li is gentle and knowledgeable, and what he said must be trustworthy.

But well...

Li Cheng didn't believe in himself that much.

What kind of face-to-face, the future is great, he is just talking nonsense.

When he said this, he just hoped that Zhu Chongxiu would cheer up psychologically, it was a white lie.

After all, the starting line is still very important. Some people are born in Rome, and some people are born as cattle and horses. Can this be the same?

Those who can cross these thick barriers are, after all, very few people.

You can't say that if you provoke yourself with this sentence casually, you will provoke a prince?

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

In short, after somewhat arousing Zhu Chongxiu's spirit, Li Cheng started further actions.

He chose to help people heal.

After a brief analysis, he felt that the reason why the girl's family was so miserable was not only related to the disaster, but also related to the girl's father's illness.If the disease can be cured, there will be less burden and more labor, and life will be easier.

Of course, to treat diseases, the money for storytelling is not enough.

However, as a fox who watched tigers baring their teeth on the mountain for three months, Li Cheng still saved a lot of herbal medicines. He only used a small part to "buy" buns, and the rest should be worth a lot of money.

so......

"Lead the way, I'll go and see what kind of illness your father has."

"Wait, wait, I sprained my ankle and I can't walk fast."

"It's simple."

Li Cheng squatted down and said, "I'll just carry you over there."

"But I'm dirty..."

"I even rolled in mud puddles a few days ago, so I don't care about it anymore."

Seeing Li Cheng's insistence, Zhu Chongxiu was too shy to speak.

Ever since they went out to beg, passers-by often looked disgusted when they saw a girl, and they were afraid to avoid her. This was the first time someone was willing to carry her.

The last time I was so kind to her, only the dead mother and the eldest brother and the second brother...

Thinking of this, tears welled up in Zhu Chongxiu's eyes.

She sniffled, then slapped herself vigorously, trying to reduce the dust on the surface of her clothes, and after a long time, she squirmed closer to Li Cheng.

"Haha, let's go!"

"ah!"

Without saying a word, Li Cheng picked up the little girl.

Hmm, fluffy.

Zhu Chongxiu lay stiffly on Li Cheng's back, her small face pressed against the clothes, feeling the warmth under the fabric.

Between the nostrils, there was a faint fragrance.

The entire Tianling Gai has almost turned into a boiling kettle, with steam bubbling out.

The girl heard about the kindness of dripping water, and she poured out a spring to repay her words.

But what Li Cheng gave her obviously exceeded the scope of dripping water.

such a big favor...

How many springs will she have to pour out in the future to repay her!

I'm afraid it's not enough to die of dehydration!

Li Cheng didn't know the thoughts of the girl on his back.

In his opinion, Zhu Chongxiu is just a child, and because of malnutrition, he is almost like a primary school student, and it doesn't matter if he carries it on his back.

The two left the city all the way in this way, along the dirt road, passed several dry and cracked fields, and came to two rows of low thatched huts.

Li Cheng just wanted to go in with Zhu Chongxiu on his back, when he found a person standing in front of his house.

His face is full of flesh, his shoulders are big and his waist is round.

Zhu Chongxiu whispered in Li Cheng's ear, "That's Butcher Zhao from the county."

"What is he doing at your house?"

Soon, Butcher Zhao gave the answer himself.

He only heard him shouting loudly into the door:

"Old man Zhu, since your eldest daughter can't enter my house, then you can return the 20 taels of concubine money to me!"

In contrast, the answering voice inside the door seemed old and weak:

"...Don't try to bully me too much! Before, you were the one who forced my daughter to be a concubine by a strong intermediary. You didn't give me any money. Where did you get the 20 taels of hire money?"

Butcher Zhao grinned loudly, speaking arrogantly:

"I said you owed 20 taels, that's 20 taels, you have to pay it back, or you have to pay it back!"

Chapter 4 Ecstasy is Good Civilization

After going back and forth, Li Cheng quickly understood what was going on.

It turned out that butcher Zhao coveted the beauty of Zhu Chongxiu's sister Zhu Xiu, and took advantage of Zhu's family being in trouble, so he married her by force.

He verbally said that he would give 20 taels of silver as compensation, but in fact he gave nothing.

In other words, prostitution.

Father Zhu is seriously ill, and the only active male in the family is the third one, unable to resist, he can only suffer from depression.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Tuhu's wife was very tough. After learning about this, she kicked Zhu Xiu out the same day.Butcher Zhao didn't see anyone, so he turned around and patted on the door of Zhu's house, asking them to pay back 20 taels.

Obviously, it was free whoring at the beginning, but now they still need money. Where can the Zhu family pay for it?

"I'll give you two months to find a living. I'll come back when the time comes. If you can't pay... don't blame me for being cruel!"

Butcher Zhao didn't care about anything else, after threatening, he turned around and left.

"Ouch!"

When he turned around, he didn't pay attention, and bumped into Li Cheng directly, almost falling to the ground.

He glared at Li Cheng and cursed:

"Where's the little boy, won't you give way?"

"Get out of the way? For you?"

Li Cheng put the girl on his back aside, and responded lightly:

"Who are you holding?"

Hey!

Zhao Tuhu was taken aback for a moment, then subconsciously raised his left hand, pressed Li Cheng's shoulder and pushed...

No push.

It's not that he has no strength, it's just that although Li Cheng looks thin and weak, he is still a monster in essence. At this moment, he is secretly lucky, and it is impossible for people without practice to push him.
