Before exile, the imperial concubine emptied the palace

Chapter 203 The Not Simple Little Boy

"Go to hell!" The sword in Gu Mian's hand pierced the man's throat, the man's eyes were wide open, his face full of unwillingness!

When the beggars in the ruined temple saw the blood flowing all over the floor, they ran out one after another and shouted excitedly: "Great! Finally no one is robbing us of food! Thank you girl! Thank you son!"

Lin Xiaoyue waved her hand and said, "You don't have to thank us, we have something to say first! We need people who can go to war now, and I will give you money. Women, children and the elderly will stay, and the young and strong will follow me!"

At this time, an old man walked over with a cane and asked, "Girl, you helped us, we should repay you, but people will die in war, do you think we can change the terms?"

Lin Xiaoyue's eyes swept over everyone, some were hiding back in fear, some were hesitating, some just scoffed, and it was impossible to see who was willing for the time being.

She stretched out a finger and said, "We only have this one request, it doesn't matter if you don't agree, just treat it as a good deed for us. If you are willing to go with us, each person will get one ingot of silver, and you can get two silver coins every month in the future." Ingots of silver. Those who don’t want to go go back!”

The conditions offered by Lin Xiaoyue are very attractive. With money, these people don't have to be beggars. When they come back from the war, they might be able to build a house and marry a wife!
Soon people were moved, and a few bachelor beggars came out and said, "Let's go! Where's the money?"

Lin Xiaoyue counted, there were about ten people, she looked at Gu Mian, and said, "Where is the contract you prepared?"

Gu Mian took out a stack of pre-prepared contracts from his bosom, and said to these bachelor beggars: "Sign and press your fingerprints, and you can receive the money."

These few bachelor beggars readily signed the contract and stamped their handprints, and then happily took a piece of silver and bit it with their teeth.

Lin Xiaoyue looked at the other people at the gate of the ruined temple. Some of the remaining people had gray hair, and some had wives and children. She asked again: "Is there anyone else? If not, we will leave!"

Still that kid, he raised his head immaturely and said, "Sister, can I follow you?"

Lin Xiaoyue said with some embarrassment: "Little brother, you are still young, you should stay with your parents. When you grow up, my sister will recruit you into the army."

The child lowered his head sadly and said, "I don't have parents! Sister, just let me go, I'm not afraid of death! I'm afraid of having nothing to eat!"

Lin Xiaoyue was a little moved by the child's words, nodded and said: "Okay then, you will follow me from now on, and I will never let you go hungry! But you have to be obedient and practice hard every day!"

The child danced happily, "Great, great! I can have enough to eat in the future!"

Lin Xiaoyue saw that no one stood up in the temple, so she nodded understandingly and said, "Okay then, let's go first!"

Gu Mian took the ten bachelor beggars, Lin Xiaoyue took the little boy and left the ruined temple together.

"Miss Lin, are we not recruiting? Go to Xue Shichang's house and wait so soon?" Gu Mian asked curiously, seeing that the route seemed to be going to Xue Shichang's house again.

Lin Xiaoyue's feet hurt from walking, she stopped and looked at the ten bachelor beggars, and asked, "There should be more than these in the ruined temple in Yangming Town? Do you know where there are?"

The ten beggars scrambled and said, "Some of them have gone out to beg for food and haven't come back yet!"

"Some sleep in the open air!"

"Some of them don't live in our dilapidated temple. There are always people serving porridge in the west of the city, so there are people guarding there all day long."

……

Lin Xiaoyue nodded and said, "I will give you a chance to make money now. If you can attract someone, I will give you a tael of silver. How about it?"

The ten beggars were suddenly moved, and they felt that they were really following the right person!

"No problem! But where do we take people to find you?"

Lin Xiaoyue pointed to the dilapidated door on the opposite side and said, "We'll be waiting there, you go, you must come back before dark!"

The ten beggars nodded and agreed: "Okay! Girl, just prepare the money!"

Lin Xiaoyue took out a bulging purse, shook it, and said, "It's all here, it's up to you!"

The eyes of the ten beggars flashed, and they ran away excitedly.

The little boy was also a little moved, and he asked: "Sister, let me help you find it too!"

Lin Xiaoyue was a little puzzled, and asked: "You are such a young child, will those adults listen to you? And the silver will only be snatched away if you hide it on your body. Just tell me what you need, and I will buy it for you."

The little boy hesitated, his face flushed red, and finally cried out with a "wow", "But I want to save some money so that I can marry a wife when I grow up."

Lin Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment, took out a silver coin and put it in the little boy's hand, and asked, "You see they have a silver coin, and you want it too, right?"

The little boy held the silver, the tears on his face stopped instantly, he looked at Lin Xiaoyue and said, "Thank you sister! Then I can help you find someone now, right?"

Lin Xiaoyue originally wanted to save the money that the child deserved and give it to him when he grows up.Such a small child with so much money hidden in his body will actually harm him!But the kid didn't seem to believe himself.

But it is also understandable, how can a child who lives alone without parents be a simple child?
"You are such a big kid, aren't you afraid of being robbed of your money when you go out like this?" Lin Xiaoyue asked with a smile.

The little boy bit his lower lip and searched his body for a long time. Finally, he hid a piece of silver in his sleeve and said, "No! Sister, trust me!"

Lin Xiaoyue pinched the little boy's sleeve. This jacket has been worn for too long, and there is not much cotton inside. When a piece of silver is stuffed in, it is obvious that a piece sticks out. If you look carefully, you can always see that there is silver hidden here. .

She pulled the little boy and asked again: "Are you really going? In fact, you can tell me if you have difficulties. I agree that you follow me and I will help you."

The little boy hesitated for a long time before hesitatingly said: "Actually, I still have a younger sister. I want to leave the money I earn to her. This way, even if I'm not around her, she can still have money to buy food."

Lin Xiaoyue was a little astonished, and asked back: "Then why didn't you say it just now?"

The little boy lowered his head, tears were about to flow down, he sobbed and said: "Sister, you need someone to fight, my sister is too young, I don't want her to die."

Lin Xiaoyue said with a smile: "It's okay, let's pick up your sister in a while! You are still young, I will not send you to the battlefield. I will let someone teach you martial arts, and I will go when you grow up."

The little boy hung his eyeballs, looked at Lin Xiaoyue expectantly, and asked, "Then let's go now, I'm afraid my sister will cry there alone!"
