The Concubine of Crossing

There are six children in total, Dagen, Erpang, Sancao, Sibao, Wuya, and Liuman.

Use the children's own explanations: tree roots, fat people, grass, buns, teeth, steamed buns.

I have to say, in fact, these children are pretty good at naming themselves. Since they named them themselves, Li Xiao didn't want to make too many changes.Of course, the biggest reason was that he couldn't think of any good names for a while.

So he directly put on his own surname, but changing Da Gen to Li Gen doesn't sound too nice, it looks like mud root, anyway, he wants to call him Tree Gen, so he should just call him Li Shu.

Er Fatty was changed to Li Yueban, Sancao was changed to Li Hemera, and the name of Si Bao was a bit difficult to come up with. Li Xiao felt that Li Bao was really not very nice, so he simply called it Li Si. Bao was overjoyed to hear the name.

As for Wu Ya, Li Xiao thought about it, and felt that there was nothing wrong with Li Ya, so he directly added a surname.

Then there is the youngest girl Liuman, Liuman is the only girl, she is only six years old, just when she started to lose her teeth, she is missing a front tooth, but she likes to smile, and when she smiles, she reveals that she is missing a tooth front teeth.Every time she smiles, it always makes everyone laugh together.

Li Man felt weird when he pronounced it, but it happened that she was the youngest, so she could be called Li Xiaoman, and it was easier to pronounce than Li Man, no?

Liuman read his own name, then happily turned around to get a meat bun made by himself and handed it to Li Xiao, "Thank you brother~"

Now that he has changed his name, Li Xiao naturally put all the children under his wings.Originally, I only paid attention to the eating conditions of the children, but now I also have to check on the housing and transportation.

Hearing that Li Xiao was going to their place of residence, the children were both nervous and excited, and of course, more apprehensive and restless.

I don't know if the business has been bad recently, there are still a lot of buns left after selling until noon.There was no air conditioner or fan in this day and age, and the children were so hot that they were sweating. Li Xiao felt a little unbearable, so he said that the stall should be closed in advance, and the children were very reluctant.

Li Xiao said helplessly, "Pack it up and go home, so I can't finish it at noon and eat it at night!"

Only then did the children reluctantly close the stall.

Li Xiao originally thought it was the reason for the recent decline in business, but when he saw the income, it was definitely an increase, and he was angry and funny, "The weather is so hot, don't make so much."

In fact, he was thinking that if he could sell some jelly in this weather, it would definitely sell better than steamed stuffed buns.It's a pity that although I have seen what wild jelly seeds look like, I have never seen them in this city.So I can only think about it.

After tidying up the shop, I took the children to their residence. It was a very remote small courtyard. The house was dilapidated. Obviously, it hadn't been repaired for a long time, and a lot of weeds grew on the tiles.

Er Fatty, oh, Li Yueban hurriedly ran to prepare to open the door, but when he got to the door, he realized something was wrong, the door of his house had already been opened.

Several children also noticed something was wrong, and the voices that were still talking and laughing just now stopped abruptly.

Li Xiao naturally noticed it too. He took two steps forward and gestured to the children, signaling them to stay away. Then he pushed the door carefully and walked in.

The children looked at each other, each with worried faces, and looked at Li Shu one after another.Li Shu is the king of children, and the children have listened to him since they were young. Now everyone is undecided, and they all look at him with their eyes open.

Li Shu glanced at them, and whispered, "Hide better, I'll go and have a look."

At this moment, there was a loud noise in the room, followed by a sharp scream, "Oh, help me! Killing someone! Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."

The children looked at each other, Li Shu had already run in, Li Yueban hurriedly followed, and even though Li Xuancao had a worried expression, she still hid with a few little ones, watching to prevent them from running around.

When the two children rushed into the room, Li Xiao had already pushed a middle-aged man to the ground. The corner of the man's mouth was stuffed with a black cloth. Judging from the material, it seemed to be torn from the man.

Li Xiao was sitting on the man's back, holding his hands behind his back, and scolded, "Oh, this is the first time I've seen a thief dare to call for help."

The man whined twice again, and the voice was panic, anger and despair.Li Xiao had already stood up, and the two children who rushed in said, "See if there is anything missing in the house. If something is missing, we will take him to the government."

The person who was already struggling suddenly became more violent, whining non-stop, Li Xiao impatiently called out with his fist, "What's the matter, didn't the fist eat enough?"

The man was photographed until his eyes stared, and he finally became quiet.

At this time, Li Yueban called out hesitantly, "Uncle?"

Hearing this, the man who had already calmed down suddenly struggled again, looked at Li Yueban with burning eyes, nodded straightly, and there seemed to be water flowing in his eye sockets.

Only then did Li Xiao know that this person was Li Yueban's relative.Li Xiao touched his nose in embarrassment, and let him go.

After the uncle was let go, he jumped three feet high and felt that he was far enough away from Li Xiao, so he pointed at his nose and scolded, "Where did the robbers come to other people's houses to beat people? Is there any law?" ! I want to sue you for trespassing!"

Li Xiao raised his eyebrows, the embarrassment just now had long been forgotten.He also remembered that if Li Yueban really had a younger uncle who ended up hanging out with a group of little beggars, the uncle probably didn't care about his nephew at all.

So, Li Xiao strode over and grabbed the man's collar, "What's the matter, you sneaked into someone's house by yourself, and you still called out to catch the thief, right?"

The man originally thought that he was far enough away, but he never thought that Li Xiao's legs were too long and his steps were too big. In the blink of an eye, he was grabbed by him, and before he could react, he punched him Come on, the man only felt a pain in his cheek, and half of his cheek suddenly swelled up. He covered his face, his eyes were dim, and he didn't dare to speak anymore.

Li Xiao just threw the man to the ground, and found a stool to sit down at random, but he didn't know whether it was because he was too strong or the stool was not strong enough, he just heard a click, and he had already sat down on the ground.

Li Xiao: "..."

Li Shu and Li Yueban hurried over to help him, "Brother Xiao, are you alright?"

After waving at the two of them, Li Xiao climbed up from the ground and looked down. It turned out that the stool was missing a leg a long time ago, and the missing leg was tied up with vines and branches. These children can still sit on it. Well, it's impossible for an adult like him to sit down.

Li Xiao rubbed his sore buttocks, declined Li Yueban's proposal to let him sit on the bed, stood still against the wall, and asked Li Yueban what happened.

Li Yueban said that he was stumbling, but in fact he hadn't figured out why this person appeared here at all.

Li Yueban's father passed away not long after her mother conceived him, so there were rumors that Li Yueban's life was too hard to kill his father. Fortunately, Li Yueban's mother didn't believe this and insisted on giving birth to Li Yue Half, but because no one took care of it, the root cause of the disease fell, and it disappeared within a few years.

As a result, more people took the fact that Li Yue killed his family with half his life, and all his relatives didn't want to have any contact with him. His grandparents even directly said that he had nothing to do with their family and forbade him to step into their gate.

He was only five or six years old when Li Yuebanniang died, and he was about the same as Xiaoman now.A child who has no parents or relatives, what else can he do except beg for food?

But at that time, Li Yueban's mother had just died, and Li Yueban was still a little chubby, such a chubby baby, no one would give him food if he wanted to beg, if Li Shu saw that he was starving to death later and gave him some food, He probably really starved to death.

Li Yueban's father passed away suddenly and left them no property at all. Li Yueban's mother had been ill for several years, and the family was even poorer. Probably because of this, this dilapidated courtyard had no property at all. People liked it, but Li Yueban was allowed to stay, and it became a place where a group of children lived.

After listening to Li Yueban's words, Li Xiao looked at that uncle with a very bad look. This kind of person who doesn't care about his nephew who lost his parents at a young age has no humanity at all.

Such a person suddenly appeared in Li Yueban's home, and even unlocked the door to enter by himself, he had malicious intentions at first sight.

Hearing the conversation between the two, the man snorted, "What are you talking about, Xiaopang is such a small doll, how could he have survived all these years without our care? How can he still be able to find it so well? Money-making man?"

Good guy, these people want to take advantage because they see that Li Yueban is still alive and well and earning money again?

Wait, thinking of his behavior of directly appearing in the room, Li Xiao turned his head and said to Li Shu, "See if there is something missing."

Li Shu had checked it out, and whispered, "The house has been rummaged...a few bowls have been smashed...so I didn't lose any money...I hid it all." He said the last two sentences very lightly, also Only Li Xiao could hear it.

Li Xiao thought for a while, then touched the man directly, and found a few copper coins after groping for a long time, and suddenly felt a little dissatisfied, "Why are you so poor? Just this is not enough to buy a bowl..."

Li Shu leaned over and whispered, "That's enough, go to Old Li, you can buy several bowls..."

Li Xiao patted the man again, then slipped into the backyard, and personally demonstrated in front of the man what it means to step on a boulder with one foot, and then he said unhurriedly, "Put your tricks on the spot, this is already a grandpa's job." If you dare to come next time, you won’t be stepping on stones." As he spoke, he looked at the man with malicious intentions, so he focused on the important parts of the man.To deal with such a person, sometimes fists are better than reasoning.

The man covered his crotch with a terrified face, turned around and ran without saying a word in fright, fell several times along the way, got up and continued to run, hardly daring to turn his head to look at Li Xiao.

Seeing that the person had disappeared, Li Xiao turned his head and met the children's bright eyes. Li Shu looked at him very eagerly, his eyes were very hot, "Brother Xiao, teach us martial arts!"
