Traveling through the barren years, I have a system and am not afraid of anything
Chapter 421 Beggars in Qinghe County
"This place is infinitely better than our original house, so there's nothing wrong with it."
"It's just that Xiaotuanzi doesn't stay at the inn? Or go directly to the county magistrate's house?"
The old lady didn't understand why Tian Tian insisted on staying in an inn. There were many people in the inn, and after all, it was not as quiet as an inn.
"Mother, I always feel that something is not right about this county magistrate. Let's take a look and talk about it later!"
Tian Tian always feels that Qinghe County is not as simple as she seems on the surface.
"I think something is wrong. The county magistrate is a local official. How can he be afraid of the rich and powerful country squire? Unless the rich and powerful country squire has enough background, how powerful can he be compared to the background of the current prince?"
After settling down the old couple, Tian Tian walked to the street with Qiu Equinox.
"Sister-in-law, the streets in Qinghe County are quite lively!"
People were coming and going on the street. Although the people buying and selling things were in a hurry, it was still lively.
"Yes, the city is no better than the countryside. You have to spend money to buy food and supplies!"
Tian Tian checked the situation on both sides of the street while strolling.
Although Qinghe County is not as poor as Lingshui County, it is not particularly poor. Why is the village so poor?
"Take these buns. Here are some winter clothes. Remember to find a place with leeward wind to stay at night. Don't get frozen!"
The fat man selling steamed buns stuffed a bunch of stuff into the beggar's hand with a kind face, and also told the beggar to pay attention to his safety.
"Grandpa, you are very kind!"
Tian Tian didn't expect the old man who sold buns to be so kind. Many merchants shun beggars, but he gave food and clothes, which was very rare.
"Hey, they are just miserable people. They have been soaked in the water of misery all their lives. If they die one day, they will be relieved. Unfortunately, I am old and can't bear to see him die of cold and hunger..."
The fat old man looked at the back of the beggar holding the buns and smiling with sadness, and that was all he could do.
"Yes, there are many people like him in Daqi, and they will all be solved one day!"
Seeing the beggar, Tian Tian felt very friendly, maybe because she was saved by the beggar in the first place.
"Humph, solve it? It would be nice if there weren't more miserable people!"
"Lao Zhang, here are five buns with meat fillings!"
The lady who bought the buns had a look of disdain on her face.
"Why are you willing to eat meat buns today? Didn't you always buy vegetarian stuffings in the past?"
Fat old Zhang looked at the old lady happily while picking up the buns.
"Didn't you see that child in Qinian? Why do you keep so much money? Maybe someone will miss you one day, and your family will be ruined. I might as well eat it in my belly!"
The old lady took the bun and took a bite, as if to vent her dissatisfaction.
"You need to change your mouth. Don't get into trouble one day. We are not afraid of death when we are old, but at least think about the children!"
Fat old Zhang spoke earnestly and thoughtfully, but Tian Tian was a little stunned when he heard it.
"What happened to that beggar?"
It seems that the Qinian they are talking about is the beggar.
"Children, don't ask around, it will bring trouble to the adults!"
Lao Zhang handed Tian Tian a meat bun and waved Tian Tian away.
"What are you afraid of, kid? I think the little girl is wearing very nice clothes and she has a maid with her. What's your last name?"
The old lady and Tian Tian started talking while biting the buns one by one.
"My surname is Tian!"
"Your surname is Tian? You're not from Qinghe, are you? There are no big families named Tian in Qinghe, only those named Jiang!"
The old lady looked at Tian Tian for a long time and felt that she did not seem to be from Qinghe County, so she started talking.
"Did you see that beggar? It turned out to be the only seedling of the famous Su Dashan family in Qinghe!"
There was a murderous look in the old lady's eyes, but she could only show that look, and the rest was just lamentation.
"How many of us poor people in Qinghe County have not received any favors from Mr. Su? But if something happens to the Su family, we can't do anything. The most we can do is watch Mr. Qinian from freezing to death!"
Tian Tian frowned and looked at the old lady who was opening and closing her mouth, feeling more and more that Qinghe County was not simple.
"Auntie, I'll invite you to the teahouse opposite for a sip of tea. How about we chat while we're there?"
The story of Su Dashan's family is probably very long, and it should not be told to outsiders. Fat old Zhang almost stopped the old lady's mouth.
"No! Little girl, hurry up and find your adults. You can't interfere with things here!"
Fat Lao Zhang’s big fat face turned red in anxiety.
"Grandpa, I'm telling you quietly, my father is not here, so I will come to Qinghe County for a walk by myself. My whereabouts will be kept secret. No one will recognize me!"
Tian Tian stretched out his index finger to make a silent gesture.
Fat Lao Zhang looked at Tian Tian in disbelief, the blood vessels on his head bulged, and he rubbed his hands nervously.
"I~you~"
He wanted to say something, looked around, quickly picked up a bun and stuffed it into his mouth.
Although Fat Lao Zhang is a bun seller, he has been selling buns all his life and has seen a lot of things. He thought of Tian Tian's identity almost instantly.
"Help me deliver a drawer of steamed buns to the restaurant opposite!"
Tian Tian took out a piece of silver and stuffed it into Lao Zhang's fat hand.
"No need, no need!"
Where did Fat Lao Zhang collect Tian Tian's money? He was so nervous that he had to return it to her.
"It is natural to pay money when buying things. You ask this aunt to deliver it for me, and the rest will be treated as a tip for the aunt. When she comes to eat steamed buns in the future, you can deduct it from the extra money!"
There were people coming and going in front of the steamed stuffed bun shop, so it was not a place to talk at all.
"Little girl, I really can't give it to you. My little grandson is still waiting for my buns!"
The aunt couldn't understand anything and was unwilling to give Tian Tian buns.
"Little grandson? Does your aunt have a child? I'm worried that no one will play with me. Let's go to your house!"
Tian Tian signaled Qiu Equinox to bring the buns, and took the aunt away.
"Come to my house? Okay, let's go. Let me tell you, my grandson is about the same age as you. He has gone to private school this year. Are you in school?"
"By the way, you are a girl, so your family won't let you go, right? Don't be sad, I'll let my little grandson teach you!"
Tian Tian and the old lady disappeared, and Fat Lao Zhang couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
"Old fat man, whose little girl is that?"
A stranger came to Qinghe County and was quickly targeted.
"Master Captor! Hurry up and eat some steamed buns to keep warm!"
Fat Lao Zhang gritted his teeth and grabbed a bun. These things were all for the insatiable white-eyed wolf.
"Don't hit me, haha. I think that girl is very jealous. She has been staying at your stall for a long time. Why did she leave with Mrs. Ge again?"
The catcher waved his hand, and his servants hurried in the direction of Old Mrs. Ge's house.
"That's just a little baby. I heard that she got angry with her parents and brought the girl to our Qinghe County. I tried to persuade her a few more times. Old Mrs. Ge said that it was not safe for her to be a baby outside, so she used her own grandson to give her to her. Coaxed away!"
Fat Lao Zhang's heart was almost shaking. For the first time, his brain was not stained with grease. He almost made up a lie without stumbling.
