The soft beauty is very good at flirting, and the soul of the ascetic prince is floating

Chapter 19 You said you would repay me like a cow or a horse?
  The crowd was so excited that even the vaudeville performers stopped their movements and looked over.
  "Yes, report it to the officials. Not only are these beggars filthy, but they are also engaging in petty crimes. We really should ask the officials to rectify them."

"I told you that it would be better to break his hand first so that he can remember it better."

"You don't learn well at a young age."

……

The accusations and abuses grew louder,

Although the little beggar often hangs out in the market, when faced with this situation, he can't help but look panicked, cock his neck and say harshly:

"I-I didn't steal."

"Didn't steal? Didn't steal my purse? Did I get my legs and ran into your arms?"

"Not only are his hands and feet unclean, he also lies, which is indeed despicable."

The little beggar was frightened and turned around to run away, "I didn't steal it anyway."

A tall and thick man couldn't stand it anymore, so he stepped forward and pushed him hard.
  The little beggar staggered instantly and fell to the ground.
  The strong man pointed his finger at him, "You little beast, if you steal something and still be stubborn, I will teach you a lesson today so that you can remember it for a long time!"

Gu Wanyu was standing aside, watching from a distance. It was not until he saw this that he asked Xu Ling to rescue him.

"Okay, everyone, this child is still young and is forced by life. It is inevitable that he will think wrong for a moment. You guys haven't really lost your money, why not just forget it?"

"Forget it, why forget it? Just because he didn't succeed in stealing? Humph, judging from his appearance, he has stolen countless times in the past. If he was spared this time, wouldn't he steal again next time?"

"That's right, whoever you are, don't meddle in other people's business!"

Obviously,

This group of people did not want to let the little beggar go easily. They all accused Xu Ling of being nosy and told him to go somewhere to cool down.

When the little beggar saw this, the hope that had risen in his heart suddenly dropped again.

He lowered his head to see when everyone was criticizing Xu Ling, quickly stood up, turned around and ran away.
  As a result, before he could even take two steps, he was kicked out by the strong man.
  He was born thin and had not had enough to eat all year round. The strong man had no strength, so he immediately coughed up a mouthful of blood.
  "Little beast, do you still want to run?"

The strong man snorted coldly and approached step by step.

The little beggar glanced at the sandbag-sized fist with blurred vision, feeling deeply that he might have to confess here today!
  With despair in his heart, he stopped struggling. Just as he was waiting to die, he suddenly saw the person who had just spoken for him stopped the strong man's fist.
  Xu Ling: "My wife is kind-hearted and doesn't want to see this child being bullied. How about this? Xu is willing to pay double compensation for how much he has just taken from you. I just ask that you don't make things difficult for him."

Is there such a good thing?
  When the people around him heard that there was money to be taken, they couldn't help but smile and stopped the strong man one after another.
  "This eldest brother's wife is kind-hearted, why not help her."

"Yes, Da Zhuang, since he is willing to compensate, don't hold on to him as a little beggar."

The strong man was persuaded, and thinking about doubling the money, he also stopped his fists and kicked.

At Gu Wanyu's signal, Xu Ling did not hesitate and divided the corresponding coins with Xiaohuan and others.

Those who had not had their wallets stolen felt very regretful when they saw this. They wished they could immediately pick up the beggar and stuff their wallets in, so that they could go to Xu Ling to ask for twice as much money.

Those who had their wallets stolen not only got their wallets back, but also got twice as much money. They all praised Gu Wanyu for his kindness and that he was a living Bodhisattva.

Gu Wanyu ignored them.

Everyone said a few more words and then dispersed.

Seeing that the surroundings were clear, Gu Wanyu said, "Hel him up and see if he is in serious condition?"

Xu Ling helped the little beggar up as instructed.
  The little beggar also calmed down at this time, imitating the salute he had seen somewhere, and raised his hands, "Thank you madam, I have nothing to repay. I would like to be a cow or a horse to repay madam for saving my life."

Under the curtain, Gu Wanyu curled her lips,
  She is quite smart and understands that she cannot make enough food on her own. I feel that she is kind-hearted and generous, so I know how to stick with her.

Xu Ling, who was supporting him, frowned and said, "My wife is willing to save you because she is kind-hearted. You must not be disrespectful."

"I-I just want to repay Madam."

Seeing that his thoughts were seen through, the little beggar turned red and defended in a low voice.

Xu Ling smiled disdainfully and wanted to speak.
  Gu Wanyu waved her hand directly and stopped him, "Take him and go back home."

"Madam?" Xu Ling couldn't believe it.

But she ignored him, directly took Xiaohuan's hand, turned around and walked towards the house.

The little beggar looked happy and very excited.
  Xu Ling looked at his appearance and snorted coldly, "You're lucky."

Only then did Xiao Qian beside him pull him back to the house with Gu Wanyu.

The whole journey was silent, and Gu Wanyu didn't look at the little beggar again.
  When I got to the house, I took off the curtains and hats, and walked towards the main room with a normal expression.

The little beggar followed behind, his big eyes rolling.

It turns out that the houses of wealthy families look like this.
  Pavilions, ponds, rockeries, flowers and trees, all are missing and all are exquisite.
  Even the gallery he walked on was better than the ruined temple he slept in.

God is so unfair!
  It's hard for them to eat a meal,

But some people are born with wealth and honor,

Even the decorations in the house where they live can be enough for people like them to chew on for a year.

Even though he had seen too many wealthy people, the little beggar still felt indignant when he looked at this exquisite mansion.

After entering the main room, Xu Ling took the small money and left.

Without the person who looked obviously dissatisfied with him, the little beggar relaxed a lot and took a deep breath involuntarily.

The houses of this rich man are all fragrant!
  The blanket on the floor was made of an unknown material. It was very delicate and beautiful. It was countless times better than the patched linen clothes he wore.
  The little beggar tugged at the corner of his tattered clothes, looked left and right, and when no one stopped him, he stood on the carpet very uneasily.
  He lowered his head and stared at his dusty and worn-out straw sandals, with two toes still visible, feeling his face burning.

Gu Wanyu cleaned her hands and then turned her attention to him.
  She also saw his uneasiness and told Zhu'er: "Take him down to freshen up and then bring him back."

A quarter of an hour later, the little beggar stood in front of her refreshingly.

Apart from the dirty coarse linen clothes, this little beggar is still somewhat handsome, especially his pair of dark eyes, which exudes intelligence.
  She nodded with satisfaction, "What's your name? How old are you?"

"I-I don't have a name, they all call me a little beggar and a stinky beggar."

Xu was asked his name for the first time. The little beggar lowered his head in embarrassment.
  Compared to being caught stealing something just now, it was obviously more embarrassing to be watched by such a noble lady.

"I don't know exactly how big it is, but it's probably around eleven."

As soon as these words came out, Gu Wanyu and Xiaohuan looked calm, but Zhu'er and Guo'er looked unbearable.

"You just said you were willing to act like a cow or a horse to repay my kindness?"
