An Hehua didn't know how long the two children had been hungry, so she steamed vegetarian buns and didn't dare let them eat meat.
Although the two children were hungry, they were very polite and it was a pleasure to watch them eat.
An Hehua looked at the two of them kindly.
"Just now I heard Jingzhi say that your brother's name is Zhang Sanlang, right? You are the sister Zhang Xiaoxiao?"
The two nodded politely.
An Hehua said kindly, "If you have nowhere to go, you can stay here temporarily. Begging outside has its own territory, and you two little kids won't get anything if you go out."
Zhang Sanlang pursed his lips. He knew this very well. Every time he moved to a new place, he would be driven away by the big beggars.
Worried that someone might be targeting his sister, he even deliberately smeared dirt on her face.
For a moment he didn't know what to do. He didn't know how to contact his family, and there were some things he hadn't thought through.
Maybe staying is a good idea.
He looked at An Hehua and then at An Jingzhi.
Then he pulled Zhang Xiaoxiao and bowed to the two of them, "Thank you, Auntie and Big Brother, for taking us in. This is a great favor, and Zhang Sanlang will always remember it in his heart."
Seeing him so serious, An Hehua smiled.
"Okay, okay, I'm just giving you something to eat. No need to be so serious."
"Okay, continue eating the buns, but don't eat too much. You're young and have gone hungry before, so eating too much won't be good for your spleen and stomach."
"I know, thank you, Auntie." Zhang Xiaoxiao smiled brightly for the first time.
An Hehua touched her dry and yellow hair and said, "Okay, good child, just stay here with Auntie."
After the two finished eating, An Hehua was worried that they couldn't digest it, so she made them another bowl of hawthorn water.
She let An Jingzhi take them for a walk in the yard while she went to make the bed for them.
The three of them were in the yard watching An Hehua busying herself with Zhang Sanlang and the other man.
The brother and sister looked at An Hehua's busy figure, and their eyes became slightly moist as they had experienced the wickedness of human nature.
"You can't tell me your identity, but how did you become beggars? Can you tell me that?" An Jingzhi asked.
Zhang Sanlang thought for a moment and said, "It was the human traffickers who abducted us."
"They knocked my brother and I unconscious. They were planning to sell us out, but I took the opportunity to run away with my sister. I didn't know where we were, so we just walked towards a crowded area."
Human traffickers? An Jingzhi thought.
Actually, the original owner had done some good things. The only good thing he had done was to absorb the good luck of a human trafficker, who then fell to his death while walking.
"What's the trafficker's name?"
He thought, could it be such a coincidence?
"I don't know, I just heard others call him Master Liang." Zhang Sanlang shook his head.
Zhang Xiaoxiao suddenly said, "I heard someone call him Wang Sanliang."
An Jingzhi blinked. How could it really be such a coincidence?
So, if he hadn't intervened, what would have been the fate of the brother and sister in the previous life?
The identities of these two people were not ordinary. He tried to look through the original owner's memory, trying to find useful clues.
Got it.
In the original owner's memory, the old marquis once told him that his comrade had lost a pair of children.
Although they were found later, the daughter ended up in a brothel and the boy was beaten to death.
An Jingzhi was not sure whether these two people were the children of the old marquis's comrades.
But judging from your current situation, it's almost correct.
Seeing this, he looked at Zhang Xiaoxiao with a complicated look. Such a lovely girl, obviously a noble lady, had a rough fate and fell into the mud.
Wang Sanliang, An Jingzhi kept repeating this name in his mind, regretting that he had destroyed the Good Luck System too early.
The brother and sister stayed there. When other adopted sons and daughters came to visit, they would bring gifts to them as a gift from their older brothers and sisters.
The two were flattered and felt warm.
An Jingzhi said hello to An Hehua and decided to go with the escort in person this time to meet the unlucky scholar who was cheated by the original owner.
When we were halfway there, a sudden storm broke out.
A group of people hurriedly ran to a dilapidated temple to hide.
The goods were wrapped tightly in oil paper, and the horses were brought in to shelter from the rain. Then the group of people started to make a fire to keep warm.
After a while, a scholar carrying a basket of books ran into the temple in the rain.
A group of people stared at him intently, and the scholar's scalp felt numb. Most of the escorts were burly and strong men, and if they were too weak, they would not be able to calm people down.
When the scholar Yu Dongjun saw their appearance, he thought for a moment that he had accidentally walked into a den of thieves.
"Sorry to bother you. I'll leave now."
An Jingzhi smiled and said, "It's raining heavily outside, why not stay and take shelter from the rain?"
"Don't worry, brother. We are all serious escorts."
The other party smiled awkwardly, as if a little embarrassed, and bowed to them and said, "I am Yu Dongjun, and I apologize to you all. When I came in just now and saw your majestic, powerful, and rugged appearance, I thought..."
An Qiaozhi looks big and strong, but he is very thoughtful and respects scholars the most.
He stood up and warmly invited, "Scholar, come sit over here. You can warm yourself by the fire. I see your clothes are all wet."
Yu Dongjun felt relieved when he saw that although they all looked rough, they had no ill intentions.
"Thank you very much." He apologized and sat down.
Sitting around the fire, the coldness on my body was finally half dispelled.
An Qiaozhi brought over a bowl of ginger soup to dispel the cold. After Yu Dongjun declined for a few words, he couldn't help but drink it all in one gulp, and his whole body felt warm.
