Wan'er smiled and bowed to Qin Luo, saying, "This servant greets Daoist Qin."
Qin Luo smiled in response. He looked at the old man who was cleaning and asked with a smile, "May I ask how you are called, sir?"
Xu Hu shook his head. He looked at Wan'er, who couldn't recall his name either. She had just arrived at the courtyard and only knew that the old man was in charge of cleaning it.
The old man in gray raised his head. His face was full of wrinkles and his body was trembling uncontrollably. "I used to beg for food on the street. Her Highness the Princess took pity on me and gave me a meal. She let me come here to sweep the floor. I don't have a name. Because I am tall, they all call me Old Gao."
"Old Gao."
Qin Luo bowed to the old man.
The old man was flattered and overwhelmed. He was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and said, "If you need anything, please give me your orders."
"Please rise quickly!"
Qin Luo stepped forward and helped the old man up.
Xu Hu said respectfully, "Master Qin, I have other matters to attend to. Farewell!"
"Thank you for your trouble, General Xu!"
Qin Luo personally escorted Xu Hu away from the residence.
The little dumpling came to the pavilion, and she opened the oil paper, inside was a fragrant roast duck.
"Boss, here's a duck leg for you!"
The little dumpling handed the largest duck leg to Qin Luo. Qin Luo took the duck leg. This was the first piece of meat he had eaten since coming to the capital. The roast duck was very fragrant, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and juicy.
The little dumpling picked up a roast duck wing and handed it to Wan'er, saying, "Sister, this wing is for you."
Wan'er felt embarrassed to refuse, so she took the wings with her hands, her eyebrows curving slightly, "Thank you, little fairy!"
"My name is Little Dumpling, and I am the Great Protector of Longhu Temple. You can just call me Little Dumpling!" Little Dumpling chuckled.
The little girl picked up a duck leg and ran to Old Gao, saying, "Grandpa, here's a duck leg for you!"
Old Gao was at a loss for words. He waved his hands repeatedly, "No need, no need, thank you, little fairy!"
"Grandpa, you take it!"
Faced with the enthusiastic little dumpling, Lao Gao took the roasted duck leg. His eyes were filled with emotion, not because he had never eaten duck leg before, but because the little dumpling kept calling him "Grandpa".
The princess used to be the one who treated him so well, but I never expected that Qin Luo and the little dumpling would treat him so well too.
The little dumpling was gnawing on a duck neck when she exclaimed, "It's so delicious! I wish Little Purple Moon and Little Monkey were here."
Qin Luo smiled; the little dumpling had changed a lot along the way and was becoming more and more sensible.
Wan'er had heard that Qin Luo was very capable and thought he would be difficult to get along with, but she didn't expect him to be so gentle.
"Boss, eat more!"
I'm full.
Qin Luo just wanted to taste it.
"Sister, Grandpa, you should eat too!"
Wan'er waved her hand with a smile. She didn't like greasy food. Lao Gao looked at the little dumpling with a smile. It was his first time eating roast duck, and it was the most delicious food he had ever eaten.
Qin Luo thought of his junior sister. Fortunately, there was Mirror Lake Academy, and his junior sister could eat her fill every day now.
Soon after, the little girl finished the rest of the roast duck. She licked her fingers, and the table was covered with clean bones. At this moment, Lao Gao came to clean up the table.
"Grandpa, I can do it myself!"
The little dumpling quickly gathered up the bones on the table and then dumped them into the trash can.
Watching the little dumpling finish her work, Old Gao was amazed. He had never seen such a sensible child before and couldn't help but exclaim, "Little Fairy, you are such a sensible and good child!"
The little dumpling grinned and said crisply, "Hehe, because I ate a lot of chestnuts."
"Chestnut?"
Old Gao silently kept it in mind.
