Walking into a cesspit, the best evil widow wants to stand up
Chapter 279 Hitting the Noble One
The crowds of people coming and going on the street and the stalls on both sides made the street, which was not spacious, even more crowded.
The carriage occasionally gave way to pedestrians, and it was not fast to walk on such a street.
Magistrate Xu is busy with official duties, and the streets are usually managed by the county magistrate. Whenever he goes out, there is a prosperous scene wherever he goes.
At this moment, he frowned and looked outside from time to time. There were many people on the street, but they were not prosperous.
In the streets and alleys, you can see thin, sallow and ragged people everywhere, standing or sitting. Some simply lay on the street with a broken bowl in front of them, staring at the people coming and going with dull eyes.
The thin boy walked up and down, slowly following behind the carriage.
Seeing that the county town was heading towards the outskirts, it became more and more desolate as it went, the road became wider, the carriage went faster and faster, the distance in between became wider and wider, and the thin boy couldn't help but feel anxious.
There was a fork in the road ahead, and he knew that once the carriage entered the official road, he would not be able to catch up.
But he didn't want to give up this opportunity, so he quickly accelerated and ran, chasing the carriage hard.
Seeing that the carriage reached the fork, Li Dong quickly tightened the reins, slowed down, and turned the corner. Li Dong looked left and right, raised the reins, and prepared to whip the horse's back.
Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he saw what seemed to be a small figure far away on the road he had just turned from.
This small figure is very similar to the little beggar just now. Li Dong tightened the reins and the carriage slowed down instantly.
"Captain Li, what's going on?"
Seeing Li Dong glance towards the city with a strange look on his face, and then slowing down the carriage, Xu Hao looked puzzled.
Li Dong pointed with his finger: "Master, look over there."
Xu Hao looked in the direction pointed by Li Dong, squinted his eyes, and seemed to see a small figure. After a closer look, it turned out to be the little beggar just now.
"Why did this beggar follow you?" Xu Hao frowned.
"Li Dong, what's going on? Why did you stop?" Magistrate Xu's rich voice rang.
"Sir, the little beggar on the other side of the city seems to be following me."
When Mrs. Dong heard this, she quickly raised her hand to lift the curtain and took a look. While talking, the thin boy was getting closer and closer to the carriage.
Seeing the carriage stop and getting closer and closer to him, the thin boy couldn't help but laugh, grinning from ear to ear.
At this time, Mrs. Dong and Magistrate Xu also saw clearly that Capt. Li was right. Sure enough, it was the little beggar who followed. However, contrary to the happy mood of the thin boy, Dong's heart sank to the bottom.
Unexpectedly, this little beggar, who couldn't shake off the plaster, actually followed him. Based on my understanding of the master, if he was stuck by this beggar, the master would definitely not sit back and watch.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Dong glanced at County Magistrate Xu and saw that his pupils shrank suddenly, and then his expression became calm. Dong's expression changed, and she quickly said: "Captain Li, what are you doing standing still? Hurry up and leave!"
I didn't hear what the lord said, but since the lady said so, it must be that the lord also acquiesced. Li Dong raised the reins.
"drive!"
The carriage started and continued to move forward.
"Hey……"
Seeing the carriage moving again, the thin boy became anxious, and his slowed pace began to speed up again.
But unfortunately, after running so far, my legs felt like they were filled with lead. Coupled with long-term malnutrition, they had already lost their strength.
He was looking ahead and ignoring the road under his feet. Suddenly he stepped on a depression with one foot, staggered and fell to the ground.
"Ouch..."
Immediately he threw the thin boy and turned him into a dog.
Ignoring the pain, the thin boy looked up and saw that the carriage was getting farther and farther away from him, and he might not be able to keep up.
The light in the thin boy's eyes was dim, covered with a layer of mist, and his eyelids drooped, and then he lay his head on the ground.
The fortune teller Wu Xiazi said that he would meet a noble person in Heyang Street this year, and with the help of the noble person, he could change his life from now on. I don’t believe it either.
But the moment he saw Magistrate Xu, his intuition told him that maybe this was the noble man Wu Blind said. Then he followed.
But now the carriage is going further and further, and his hopes are in vain. The thin boy can't help but lament, maybe this is his fate, how can there be any noble person to help him!
The pain from the palms brought the thin boy back from his thoughts. The thin boy looked at it and saw that his two skinny palms were rubbed with blood by the sand, and some sand and mud were stuck to them.
There also seemed to be some pain in his cheek, and he was probably bruised when he fell.
Suddenly, a pair of boots with white soles and blue sides came into view. The thin boy raised his head and looked up, just in time to meet the calm and powerful face of Magistrate Xu. A pair of eyes was looking at him thoughtfully.
"Why is he back again?"
The thin boy's eyes lit up, and then he lowered his head.
Magistrate Xu looked at the little kid in front of him, with a palm-sized face and a sallow face covered with scratches. He couldn't tell how he felt.
Magistrate Xu squatted down, stretched out his hand and said, "Get up! Tell me, why are you following me?"
Mrs. Dong looked at the scene in front of her with a sad face, thinking that her husband would ignore the matter. Who would have expected that as soon as the carriage started, he shouted to Li Dong to turn around again.
"You beggar, you are like a piece of dog skin plaster that has stuck to us. You should get up now, don't pretend to be dead here!"
Xu Hao also walked forward, looking at the thin boy on the ground with disgust.
I don’t know what Dad was thinking, that he would turn around for such a dirty little beggar.
After hearing Xu Hao's voice, the thin boy stood up, stared at Xu Hao with his hands on his hips and said, "Who said I'm following you? This road is so big, you're not allowed to leave.
But since you say so, I will follow you! "
"Hey! If you want to eat meat, you have to be thick-skinned. He can't care about anything at the moment. He is really determined to follow them.
He had a hunch that the master in front of him would not drive him away. He wanted to take a gamble. If he won the gamble, he might really change his destiny.
"You! Are you still ashamed?"
He wanted to ridicule the other party, but he didn't expect that the other party would turn him around. Xu Hao was so angry that he was speechless.
"hey-hey……"
The thin boy clasped his hands in his fists and said with a playful smile: "Master, I'm sorry, I haven't read a book and I really don't know how to write the word shy!"
Unexpectedly, although the little man in front of him looked small, he was very courageous, and he could actually make Haoer angry.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Magistrate Xu couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth: "It's a bit interesting!"
Seeing the raised corners of Magistrate Xu's mouth, Mrs. Dong suddenly panicked. If her guess was correct, he might really intend to keep the baby.
Although she didn't mean to look down on the boy, seeing him dirty and showing no respect to her Hao'er made Dong feel unhappy.
