Meng Meng snorted disdainfully, and then said, "That's right, you stole the child's money, and when you couldn't steal it, you threatened the child. You are so shameless, handsome uncle, help me beat them away."
Shen Yanchu stared at Mengmeng closely, always feeling that this little face was very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it. He was sure that he had never seen such a little girl, such a beautiful and special little girl. If he had seen it, he would definitely not forget it.
But why does it give him a very familiar feeling?
"Humph! I advise you not to meddle in other people's business. In this Furong City, many people have to give face to my elder brother. Do you know who my elder brother is? I'm giving you a chance to get out of here quickly and stop meddling in other people's business."
The leader of the gangsters said arrogantly.
Shen Yanchu came back to his senses, glanced at the ruffians, and then shouted behind him: "Catch these people, send them to the yamen later, take my token and ask the magistrate how he is responsible for the public security in this city."
In the Southern Kingdom, each city has a city lord, but the city lord is mainly responsible for guarding the entire city. He is also responsible for training the troops at ordinary times, and when the court needs troops, he will send them over.
In addition to the city lord, there are also officials such as the county magistrate in a city, who are responsible for local policies, maintaining local public order, handling daily government affairs, and so on.
Although the two are at the same level, the county magistrate has more power than the city lord. The city lord is only responsible for guarding the city and managing the troops, while the county magistrate is in charge of all the affairs in the city and has more say.
The public security in this city naturally falls under the management of the county magistrate.
After receiving the order, the subordinates captured the ruffians in just a moment.
Mengmeng clapped happily, "Uncle, you are so awesome! Thank you for saving us, we will treat you to a meal!"
Mengmeng ran to Shen Yanchu with a smile, looking at him expectantly with a pair of sparkling eyes.
Shen Yanchu looked at the face from a close distance and finally realized who it looked like.
These eyes look very much like Nangong Yan.
As soon as this thought came out, Shen Yanchu looked at the little girl in front of him more carefully.
This eye shape, even the upturned arc at the end of the eye is the same as Nangong Yan's, which is particularly recognizable.
And the eyebrow shape and mouth are somewhat similar.
Shen Yanchu not only recalled Nangong Yan when he was young, but the memories were too long ago, and Nangong Yan's appearance as a child was vague in his memory.
"Uncle, why do you keep staring at me? I know I'm pretty, but you can't keep staring at me!"
Meng Meng spoke in confusion, her voice soft and cute.
Yangyang came over and tugged at Mengmeng's sleeve, "Sister, mother said, don't talk to strangers casually outside."
Yangyang thought the man's eyes were strange and didn't want her sister to have too much contact with him.
When Shen Yanchu heard what the two children were saying, he quickly came back to his senses and said, "Sorry! I just thought you looked a lot like a friend of mine, nothing else. Why are you two kids in the inn? Where are your parents?"
Mengmeng's big eyes curved into a smile, and her voice was soft and sticky, "My father and mother are out shopping, handsome uncle, do you want to have dinner with us?"
Mengmeng sent an invitation.
Shen Yanchu couldn't help but stare at her face. He felt that the more he looked at her, the more she looked like Nangong Yan and the boy next to her. Their eyes were also very similar, but their nose and mouth were not as similar as the little girl's.
If Nangong Yan had not been an heir, Shen Yanchu would subconsciously think that this was Nangong Yan's child.
However, when he thought of Nangong Yan's extinction, he instantly rejected this idea.
He said to the two kids, "Let me treat you guys! It's not right to let kids treat you."
Shen Yanchu immediately called Xiao Xiao to serve the dishes and paid the bill.
After the three of them sat down, Meng Meng asked, "Uncle, you just said that I look a lot like a friend of yours. Your friend? Do we really look alike? I haven't seen anyone who looks like me, and I really want to see how similar we are."
When Yangyang heard what her sister said, she couldn't help but look at her.
They had discussed before what their father would look like if they had one, and they came to the conclusion that their father would look like their sister.
Because he looks like his mother, the master and others all said that he is like his mother except for his eyes.
Later they thought that both of them inherited their eyes from their father. Except for his eyes, he inherited everything else from his mother, while his sister inherited everything from his father.
So when they heard Shen Yanchu say that Meng Meng looked very similar to a friend of his, the two kids started to have wild thoughts in their minds.
Shen Yanchu nodded, "Yeah, they really look alike, especially your eyes, they are very similar.
Meng Meng's dark eyes became brighter, with a hint of barely perceptible excitement in them. "Then uncle, where is this friend?"
Shen Yanchu smiled, "Why are you so curious? Where are your parents? When will they come back? How can they leave you two here alone without worrying that you will be in danger?"
Mengmeng was a little disappointed to see that he no longer mentioned that friend.
Then he sighed helplessly and said softly, "Uncle, actually we got lost from our parents. I said that just now because I was worried that you were a bad person, so I said our parents went shopping. But now I know you are not a bad person, so I am not afraid. It's okay to tell you the truth."
Shen Yanchu frowned, "You are lost? What happened? It's too dangerous for you two kids to stay alone."
Shen Yanchu didn't know why, but when he looked at the two children and heard that they were lost, he inexplicably began to worry.
These two children are good-looking, smart and likable, and they are not accompanied by adults. Such children are easily noticed by others.
If I go out alone, I'm afraid I won't last more than three days before something bad happens.
Meng Meng said hurriedly: "Uncle, don't worry. My brother and I are very smart. We can't be caught by the bad guys, and we always meet good people. Look, we met you today, and you are a good person and you helped us."
When Ana Shen heard this, she felt that the two children were even more innocent.
He thought for a while and said, "What are your father and mother's names and their appearance? Tell me and I will help you find them."
Mengmeng said, "Daddy looks like me, Uncle, you can help find her by looking like me, my mother looks like my brother, you can help find her by looking like him, Uncle, you are such a good person, I don't know how to thank you, Uncle, do you have any children? If not, I will be your child in the future, I will repay you for your kindness, I will repay you in the future."
Chen Yanchu: “…”
This child is too honest.
Shen Yanchu said hurriedly: "No need to do that, I'm just with a group, I'm not sure if I can find it, have you always lived in this inn?"
Meng Meng nodded, "Yeah."
Shen Yanchu nodded, and then said: "I have something to do these days, so you stay here first, and when I'm done, I'll help you find your parents."
Mengmeng nodded, looking touched.
"Thank you, uncle. You are such a good man."
Yangyang looked at his sister's hypocritical appearance, and then at Shen Yanchu's innocent appearance, feeling amused. He glanced at the figures of Zhu Siheng and Zhao Jinhua outside, and hurriedly pulled his sister's clothes quietly, motioning her to look outside.
When Mengmeng saw that it was Zhu Siheng who came, she immediately understood his purpose.
But she couldn't let the person in front of her find out that she lied to him, so Meng Meng stood up and said, "Uncle, I'm going to the bathroom first, you guys eat first."
Meng Meng hurried out. In order to prevent Shen Yanchu from following her sister, Yang Yang said, "Uncle, you don't seem to be from Furong City. Are you from another place?"
Shen Yanchu looked at Yangyang in surprise. Yangyang had been silent before, and he thought that the child was timid and didn't dare to speak. But now looking at his calm and composed appearance, it seemed that he was not timid, but looked like a calm adult.
Shen Yanchu nodded, "Well, I'm not from Furong City, how can you tell?"
Yangyang started chatting with him on this topic, drawing all of Shen Yanchu's attention to him.
Outside, Meng Meng had already pulled Zhu Siheng and Zhao Jinhuan aside.
