Yan Xuehuai looked at the child in front of her. She was about seven or eight years old. She was thin and small. Her face was as dirty as a little cat. Her hands on her knees were also dirty, with several scratches.

The clothes on his body were torn and not fit, and he was fat and big, making him look even thinner. He had one missing shoes on his feet and his socks were worn out.

Yan Xuehuai stared at the child, and the child was also staring at her. Her eyes were dark and bright, and it brought a little fear, which reminded Yan Xuehuai of some small animals.

"Mom, where did you pick up the child?"

Yan Xuehuai shouted outside.

Li Qiniang was talking to Mo Yu in the main hall. When she heard the sound, she smiled apologetically at Mo Yu and patted the clothes that Mo Yu sent: "Thank you, I even saw that this child was pitiful, so I brought it back without thinking too much."

Mo Yu smiled and said, "No need to thank me. These are all worn by Wu Jie and Wu Rui when they were young. It is useless to keep them. I cleaned them up a while ago and was originally planning to send them to Shantang. This will save me another trip."

After seeing Mo Yu off, Li Qiniang entered the inner room. Seeing her daughter and the child staring at each other with wide eyes, she quickly said to her daughter: "Remember the small stone steps next to Dengshi Street. This child fell from there and just fell to my feet. When I saw him, he was sticking out his butt and was about to stand up. Today, Dengshi Street was in chaos. If it weren't for pearls, I would have almost been squeezed and fell down, let alone such a young child. I asked him and he said that his parents were all dead and were an orphan, so I brought him back."

At this time, Lu Ying'er's voice came from outside the window: "Boss, the water is ready."

Li Qiniang said softly to the child: "Xiaoman, will aunt take you to take a shower?"

"Okay", the child called Xiaoman stood up obediently, and it was very difficult to get up. Obviously, there was also injuries on his legs. Li Qiniang wanted to hug him, but he shook his head shyly, "...dirty."

I know that I am too dirty and I am afraid that it will be disgusting.

This child is so obedient that it makes people feel distressed, and Li Qiniang's heart is so soft: "Don't worry, you can go slowly."

Yan Xuehuai frowned and watched the big and small walk out.

What does it mean?

Li Qiniang picked up a child?

What about her?

She lived for two lifetimes and had never picked up a child. How could Li Qiniang pick up a child when she went out to buy meat?

But if it weren't for Li Qiniang picking it up, where did this kid come from?

"Pearl, pearl!"

Zhenzhu was helping Lu Ying'er move the bathtub. When he saw Li Qiniang bringing Xiaoman over, he quickly said, "Boss, go and do it, I'll watch him take a shower."

Pearl has moved out of Wujie Wurui's house. After Agate comes, the two of them live in the same room.

The bathtub was placed in their room, Lu Ying'er put down the hot water, Li Qiniang gave a few words, and the two of them went back to the yard where they lived.

Seeing that they were leaving, Zhenzhu said to Xiaoman: "Can you take a shower?"

Xiaoman nodded and whispered: "You can wash."

"Then wash yourself, don't splash the water outside, call me after washing." Zhenzhu said angrily, completely different from the one in front of Li Qiniang just now.

As soon as Zhenzhu walked out of the house, he saw Lu Ying'er who was returning. Zhenzhu quickly smiled: "Sister Ying'er, why have you come here in person? Just call me at Yuedong Gate if you have something to do."

Lu Ying'er glared at him: "Young boss is looking for you."

"Okay!"

Pearl called Ma Aoi to come and see Xiaoman. Ma Aoi was playing with Wu Jie. Pearl called him, but Wu Jie threw him to the ground when he was not careful.

Ma Agami was so angry that he chased after him and beat Pearl. Pearl ran away: "Miss Yan is looking for me. If you have the ability, go to Miss Yan and hit me."

Agate had to stop doing it. Miss Yan is not easy to mess with. Who knows if it will be even worse in the future? So you should flatter as soon as possible. He cannot fall into Pearl's trick. He must leave a good impression on Miss Yan.

However, Agate didn't listen to Pearl, so she went to watch Xiaoman take a shower.

He came to protect Miss Yan, not to take care of children, let alone a little beggar.

Inside the house, Xiaoman quickly took off the dirty clothes outside and sank his whole body into the water. The water was a little hot, and the wound was so painful when it was stained with water. He bit his lip and refused to let himself scream. His stomach rumbling a few times. He was so hungry!

He hadn't eaten for a day and a night, and had run a lot of roads. He had never run so far. He was so tired and afraid. He didn't know how many falls...

In the misty water vapor, Xiaoman's head began to feel dizzy, so hungry, so hungry...

When Xiaoman woke up, his head was still dizzy. He looked at the bare beam and stared at the bare beam until a sound rang in his ear.

"You guy, you finally woke up."

A big face came up and blocked Xiaoman's view.

Pearl breathed a sigh of relief, lit her nose with her hand and said, "Tell me, you can faint even if you take a shower, it's really embarrassing for men."

It turned out that he fainted. Xiaoman opened his mouth, but found that there was a scent of rice in his mouth, as if he had eaten something.

"I..." He subconsciously pointed at his mouth.

Pearl raised the porridge bowl in his hand: "I fed you half a bowl of rice soup, and Mrs. Ye said you are hungry, but you are really hungry."

Xiaoman was shy and embarrassed. He actually fainted while taking a shower.

Xiaoman sat up, but suddenly realized that he was not wearing any clothes. He was startled and hurriedly got into the quilt again.

Pearl laughed: "I'm as thin as a little chicken, and I know I'm shy. I'll carry you naked from the water."

While laughing, Pearl threw the clothes Li Qiniang brought over: "Put it on, it's all clean."

After a moment, Xiaoman, who was completely refreshed, stood in front of Li Qiniang and Yan Xuehuai. The little boy was very thin and white, with his white and transparent skin tone, which was so charming.

Li Qiniang looked at the child in front of her with distress and pointed to the food on the table: "You have been hungry for too long and can't eat too much, just drink some meat porridge."

After a large bowl of meat porridge was eaten, Xiaoshen was still not satisfied. He secretly looked at Yan Xuehuai sitting opposite him. Yan Xuehuai was also drinking porridge. She was eating very slowly and noticed that someone was looking at her. Yan Xuehuai raised her head and bumped into Xiaoman's gaze. Xiaoman hurriedly lowered her head.

"You're not full?" Yan Xuehuai asked.

Xiaoman shook his head quickly: "Eat...I'm full."

Yan Xuehuai looked at him again, then lowered his head to continue drinking porridge.

Xiaoman breathed a sigh of relief and sat properly without moving.

After Yan Xuehuai took the last sip of porridge, he pushed the bowl of porridge aside, and looked at the child opposite again.

"How old are you?"

"Ten...ten years old." Xiaoman said.

"Are you ten years old?" Yan Xuehuai didn't believe it. The child looked at at most seven or eight years old.

"Really...really." Xiaoman sat upright.
