LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 24
Song Zhen and Di Renjie met and exchanged some information.
"Is there a house bought by Miss Xia He in the southwest corner of the city?" Di Renjie confirmed again.
Song Zhen nodded: "Yes, so we should go and have a look."
"Then let's go, maybe we can run into them."
The two took a carriage to the southwest corner of the city. I don't know if it was destined, but they just happened to meet the three girls Chunhua, Qiugu and Dongxue coming out of the house.
The four looked at each other, and they were all silent.
Miss Qiugu sighed faintly: "It seems that you all know."
I don't know why I appeared here?
Miss Qiugu turned sideways and stretched out her hand: "You two, come in with me."
Miss Dongxue pushed open the door, but the scene in front of her deeply shocked Di Renjie and Song Zhen.
In the yard, there were more than a dozen young children chasing and playing.
Next to them, there were several elderly people enjoying the cool under the tree.
When the children saw the three girls coming back, they all ran over and gathered around them.
A child about three years old hugged Miss Chunhua's thigh, looked up and said innocently.
"Where's my sister? I haven't seen her for three days. I miss her."
Ms. Chunhua pursed her lips, forced a smile, leaned over and picked up the child.
"Your sister, she has something to do recently and can't come often, so we came for her."
"Wow, I want my sister! I want my sister! I want my sister!" The child cried and fluttered his legs.
As the child cried, the emotion spread to more children.
......
Di Renjie couldn't help asking: "Are they all adopted by Miss Xiahe?"
Ms. Dongxue nodded heavily: "Yes."
Song Zhen looked at the group of children, who were curiously looking at him with innocent eyes.
In the distance, a group of children were laughing and playing, and he saw happiness and happiness from them.
The person who gave all this is now crying silently in the dark prison.
Miss Chunhua put the child down and pulled the two aside.
"As you can see, these children and some elderly people were adopted by sister Xia He."
"At the end of the Zhenguan period, there was a famine in Bianzhou, and countless victims poured in from all directions. Sister Xia He was kind-hearted, so she raised the displaced children."
"After so many years, more and more children were taken in, so this scale was formed."
Di Renjie looked around with complicated eyes. There are more than a hundred children. Miss Xia He alone?
It's hard to imagine.
"We sisters once thought about helping her, but she politely refused. She said she was different from us."
"Later, we sisters came up with a plan. We followed her and brought gifts from time to time to help her share some of the burden."
Song Zhen asked, "Do you know why she adopted so many children?"
Miss Chunhua shook her head: "I don't know. I guess it has something to do with her life experience, but she has never mentioned it to others."
At this time, Miss Dongxue came over and said, "I heard from Yanu that she was taken in by our family just to have a meal like them."
So...
Miss Xiahe wanted to hold an umbrella for others because she had been caught in the rain?
In her childhood, she had to join Huichunfang to survive.
In Huichunfang, she was trained to be an outstanding female prostitute and had to fall into the dust.
In order to prevent these innocent children from following her footsteps, she adopted them outside.
Maybe, there are other reasons, only Miss Xia He knows.
Who said that whores are heartless and actors are disloyal?
Can you imagine that a weak woman has no other way to make a living, so she has to sell her body cheaply and receive customers day and night just to feed these children.
She didn't need to work so hard, but she did it.
Should you say she is great or stupid?
Such people are extremely rare even in the postmodern era.
......
"Xiaobao!"
"Aye!"
At this time, more than a dozen middle-aged men walked in from the door, and they picked up their children with smiles on their faces.
Suddenly, Wang Wu noticed two men in the corner who were talking to Miss Chunhua.
"Who is this? Langguan?"
[Not official history, the Tang Dynasty generally called officials Langguan. Regarding this title, Yanzu, don't be too picky. 】
Soon, he thought of Miss Xia He who had not come to visit the children in the past few days.
So, he put the child down and said to him with a smile: "Xiaobao, go play with others first, Aye has something to do."
"Aye, how long will it take?" The child blinked his clear big eyes."Very soon, be good and listen."
When Wang Wu turned around, his expression immediately became heavy. He patted a few companions and motioned them to follow him out.
"Did you see this carriage?"
"What's wrong? Wang Wu, what's wrong with the carriage?"
"This is a government carriage."
"Ah!" The men were shocked. "You mean, Madam Xia He committed a crime?"
"Miss Xia He is the kindest person in the world. She must be wronged."
"Wait, don't worry. I'll go and find out what happened to Madam Xia He?"
The men who stayed outside the house watched Di Renjie and Song Zhen leave in the carriage.
"Since there is a problem with the food, let's go to the kitchen to take a look."
Song Zhen suspected that someone deliberately made heavy oil and heavy taste food to aggravate the condition of the deceased.
......
An hour after Song Zhen and the others left, Zhao Liu, who went to inquire about the news, came back.
He panted and said nervously: "He, they said that Madam Xia He killed someone."
"How is it possible?"
So Zhao Liu told everyone the limited information he had found out.
Wang Wu punched the wall, and blood trickled down his hand.
Tian Qi said in a deep voice: "Madam Xia He has done so much for us. Now she is wrongly imprisoned. We can't do nothing."
"That's right. Although I haven't been to school, I also know how to write gratitude."
"Without Madam Xia He, my little Bao and I would have been frozen to death in the suburbs."
"Madam Xia He is a good person, and good people should live a long life!"
Huang Ba suddenly asked a soul-searching question: "Wait, you just said that Miss Xia He worked in Huichunfang?"
At this moment, including Wang Wu who was punching the wall, all the men were stunned.
Miss Xia He never told them about her profession, and they thought she was a daughter of a rich family.
Unexpectedly...
It turns out that she is just like us, the most ordinary kind of person.
In order to give them their first meal, to give the children a humble home, to give the wanderers a common home...
As the dozen men thought about it, tears flowed unconsciously.
They did not feel that the money was dirty, but felt that it was very heavy.
It was as heavy as Mount Tai, so heavy that they could hardly breathe.
Wang Wu wiped his tears and turned away angrily.
"Wang Wu, where are you going?"
"I'm going to take the blame for Miss Xia He! Just say that I killed the person!"
"Wait! I'm going too!"
"Take me with you! Although I'm poor, I have a worthless life!"
"Huang Ba, where are you going?"
"I'm going to say goodbye to my little treasure and tell him that Aye has gone to repay his gratitude, don't worry."
"Wait, what are you all doing?"
The men heard the shouting and stopped.
