Seeing that the crisis was over, the little beggars couldn't help cheering and began to eat with peace of mind.
Yuzhui was so anxious that he kept admonishing her, "Slow down, slow down, be careful not to choke!"
Jin Bai said proudly, "It's okay, everyone, eat as much as you want."
Xie Wanyun couldn't help but smile when she saw him like this.
The children were extremely hungry and devoured the entire table in one sitting. The fourth brother, the leader, stood up and said, "Madam, Jinbai, we're all full. We're going home now."
"Where to go back to?" Xie Wanyun asked.
"A dilapidated temple." The fourth brother laughed, "We all live there."
"How can we live there?" Jin Bai got anxious when he heard this. "I just checked, it's broken and full of holes. It's as cold as outside!"
"At least there's a roof over our heads. We're used to it, so we're not afraid."
The children all trusted their fourth brother very much. After hearing what he said, they nodded together and prepared to say goodbye.
Everyone thanked the lady, Jinbai, Yuzhui, and Quan Ge'er.
This made Quan Ge'er feel very embarrassed. He even chased her away at the beginning!
Jin Bai was so anxious that she pulled Xie Wanyun's sleeve and said, "Aunt Xie, Aunt Xie, can you please let them stay? The temple is in such a state of disrepair. If it snows again, the roof will collapse!"
There was a hint of warmth in Xie Wanyun's cold eyes.
The children were sensible, Jin Bai was kind, and with the money the Xie family earned from their shop, they could easily support a hundred more children.
Instead of supporting those ungrateful people in the Qin family, it is better to provide a place for the children to live.
She turned to Yuzhui and said, "Yuzhui, take a few people to clean up the yard in the northwest corner and let the children live there. It's freezing cold, so add a few more quilts."
Yuzhui's eyes turned red and she agreed to go.
There was silence at the scene.
Xie Wanyun looked at the children with a smile and said, "What's wrong? Are you not satisfied with my arrangement? Or don't you want to move in?"
Xiao Ya was the first to burst into tears, tears falling like beads from a broken string.
Fourth Brother and the other older children also had tears in their eyes. These children had been abandoned, wandering the streets, begging everywhere, accustomed to the world's contempt, scolding and beatings. They had never been treated so gently before.
Now suddenly someone is willing to provide them with shelter, and they no longer have to wander.
They looked up at Xie Wanyun as if they were looking up to a god.
Suddenly there was a burst of crying.
Xie Wanyun's eyes also became moist. Being able to protect those you want to protect is the true meaning of becoming strong.
Jin Bai rushed over and hugged Xie Wanyun tightly, shouting, "Aunt Xie! I like you, I like you so much!"
Quan Ge'er gritted his teeth, pushed him away, and said angrily: "Look at you, you are covered in mud, and you have even soiled the lady's clothes!"
Jin Bai chuckled, still holding Xie Wanyun, unwilling to let go, and said to Quan Ge'er, "Quan Ge'er, I won't fight with you anymore. Let's make peace, okay?"
Quan Ge'er was originally angry with him, but Jin Bai took the initiative to make peace, so he couldn't be too stingy and agreed. The two children went hand in hand to help clean up the yard.
Yan Sui returned home after court, but didn't see Jin Bai again. He thought the child was getting wilder and wilder. Just as he was about to send someone to look for him, a servant who followed Jin Bai reported that Jin Bai had returned home with Xie Wanyun, accompanied by a group of young beggars.
Yan Suizhi was speechless and choked up. He had no choice but to go to the Marquis's mansion to pick him up in person.
Not long after, the door to the mansion opened, and Xie Wanyun walked out, holding Jin Bai's hand. A smile played on his face, a stark contrast to his usual cold demeanor.
That smile diluted the coldness between his brows, and his whole person became lively and dazzlingly beautiful.
Yan Suizhi was shocked!
Seeing him coming, Jin Bai let go of Xie Wanyun's hand and ran over. "Uncle, you're here to pick me up! I'm sorry, I came to see my friends today, but I ran into Aunt Xie, and then..."
Yan Suizhi interrupted him and gave him a warning glare, "I'll settle the score with you when we get back."
"Oh." Jinbai lowered his head guiltily.
Xie Wanyun smiled and said, "Master Yan, congratulations on raising a good child."
