County Magistrate Zhang ran quickly to the meeting room and heard the managers discussing excitedly even at the door.
"Tell me, who are they from? Why are they so generous?"
“I don’t know, but it’s obvious that the little girl is the one in charge, and those adults are her followers.
The child holding her said that Xiao Chengzi from Wanxing Street was their older brother.” said the food workshop manager.
Magistrate Zhang stepped in and asked, "What are you talking about?"
The stewards rushed to report the good news: "Master, good news..."
After the stewards finished speaking, County Magistrate Zhang felt his heart pounding and muttered, "That little kid you're talking about is a girl, not even a year old?"
"Yes, he can't even walk yet. He's about ten months old and can say a few simple, unclear words."
At ten months old, the princess is exactly this size!
Magistrate Zhang quickly turned around and told his attendant, "Xiaoshan, go to the study and get the princess's portrait."
The managers were so shocked that they looked at each other.
"Master, are you saying that the little girl is Princess Dingguo?"
"It's just speculation. Who else would be so generous? Whose little kid would bother to meddle in something that has nothing to do with her?"
"Master, if it really is a princess, our workshop will be saved!"
"Yes, if the princess really comes, our hard times will be over."
Xiaoshan came back quickly, breathing slightly hard, holding a rolled-up portrait.
County Magistrate Zhang took it, placed it on the coffee table and slowly unfolded it.
"Come and see, is that little doll a princess?"
After the stewards came closer to take a closer look, they all nodded and exclaimed, "It's her! That's right, it's the princess!"
County Magistrate Zhang was so excited that he burst into tears and trembled all over.
"The princess is here! Our princess is here incognito!"
The manager of the food workshop knelt on the ground and bowed repeatedly with his hands towards the sky.
"Princess, I'm so sorry. I was actually laughing at you in my heart, thinking you were just a little kid."
County Magistrate Zhang waved his hands hurriedly: "You said earlier that Xiao Chengzi from Wanxing Street was their older brother?"
"Yes, I asked them who they were, and that's what the child holding the princess said."
“The area around Wanxing Street should be the area of the charity hall that was newly built last year.
Judging from the fact that the princess wanted to distribute food to the children in the charity house, she should know the children in the charity house.
This little Chengzi is most likely the child from that charity hall.
Come, let us go and ask him if he knows where the princess is staying."
County Magistrate Zhang led a group of people and rushed to the charity hall in a hurry.
At this time, the children in the charity hall were returning to the charity hall one after another, lining up to receive their evening meals.
Xiao Chengzi looked down at the bowl in his hand.
He had no mood to eat the whole day. His stomach was growling with hunger, but he didn't have much interest in eating.
"Where's your little sister? She was with me getting food yesterday."
At this time, County Magistrate Zhang and his entourage arrived at the door of the charity hall.
Uncle Zou hurried forward and said, "County Master, you are here!"
Magistrate Zhang grabbed Uncle Zou's arm and asked anxiously.
"Is there a kid named Xiao Chengzi here?"
"Yes, there is a little Chengzi. County Master, what trouble has he gotten into?"
Magistrate Zhang waved his hand and said, "Call him here quickly. I have something to ask him."
Uncle Zou quickly ran to where the children were lined up, and when he got closer he shouted loudly: "Xiao Chengzi, Xiao Chengzi..."
Xiao Chengzi was still immersed in yesterday's memories when his friend behind him pushed him and said, "Stop daydreaming. Uncle Zou is calling you."
Xiao Chengzi finally came back to his senses and ran to Uncle Zou: "Uncle Zou, what's going on?"
At this time, County Magistrate Zhang and others also rushed over.
When the children saw Magistrate Zhang and his entourage, they stopped accepting their meals and rushed forward like a swarm of bees.
"Uncle Zhang, Uncle Zhang..."
Magistrate Zhang lovingly touched one and looked at another: "Good, good, good boy, go eat quickly. It's getting dark. Eat well and go to bed early."
The children obediently dispersed and continued to line up for food.
Only then did Uncle Zou lead Xiao Chengzi forward.
"County Master, this is Xiao Chengzi."
Xiao Chengzi bowed politely to Magistrate Zhang and said, "Uncle Zhang, you're looking for me?"
County Magistrate Zhang took Xiao Chengzi's hand and said, "Well, tell me, Uncle Zhang, do you know a little girl who can't talk or walk?"
"You are talking about the little sister!" Xiao Chengzi nodded repeatedly.
"I met this little girl on Wanxing Street yesterday and brought her back to the Charity Hall. I even let her sleep next to me last night, but when I woke up this morning, she was gone."
Uncle Zou quickly confirmed: "That's true, the girl is chubby and must have been abandoned by her family recently.
County Master, is there something wrong with that little girl?
County Magistrate Zhang nodded and said, "Xiao Chengzi, is there a five or six-year-old boy beside her?"
"Yes, my name is Xiaoxing."
"Do you know where they live?"
Xiao Chengzi shook his head: "I don't know. When we found the little sister, she was sitting there alone."
Xiao Chengzi recounted the details of his encounter with Nangong Jiu one by one.
County Magistrate Zhang smiled and rubbed Xiao Chengzi's head: "Tomorrow, the workshop will send you a lot of food. It's bought for you by the little kid."
Xiao Chengzi's eyes widened: "Little sister bought it for us?"
"Um!"
Magistrate Zhang asked Xiaoshan to unfold the portrait and asked, "Take a look. Is that her?"
