However, the child was terrified the moment he saw him. He trembled and almost fell into the river.
Ah Mao could only stop and say to him, “Don’t worry, your sister will take you away soon.”
With that, he turned around and left.
He had to quickly help Miss Gu find out what had happened and return to Jiangyu County. Miss Gu and Brother Shao were both capable people. They would definitely be able to take this child away.
Bian Yuanzhi was startled. When he heard the word ‘sister’, he thought of Bian Mulan. He remembered that she was still worried about him before she died and told him to live well and reunite with his parents.
However, when would he be able to find his parents? He was too tired and had to do many things every day. Second Aunt hit him and his cousins also pinched him. He did not have dinner tonight.
Oh, that’s not right. He didn’t seem to have eaten lunch either. He was so hungry now.
Bian Yuanzhi blinked his eyes, cupped his hands and drank two mouthfuls of river water. After feeling that his stomach was no longer empty and uncomfortable, he squatted down and started to wash his clothes.
On the other side, Ah Mao had already quickly walked downstream. There were also a few women washing clothes there.
He purposely pointed at Bian Yuanzhi and asked a few questions.
These people loved to gossip. There were some things that Cat learned clearly without even asking.
When he had heard enough, he hurried over to check on Bian Yuanzhi.
He happened to see the child holding his stomach and looking at the river with a conflicted expression. After a while, the child squatted down and took two sips.
When he felt a little better, he smiled.
Ah Mao recalled that when he was a beggar, he also had nothing to eat and could only drink some water to fill his stomach. That feeling was too uncomfortable.
However, at least he did not have to work. If he was too hungry, he would lie in the dilapidated temple to conserve his strength.
Seeing that the child had drunk two more mouthfuls of river water, he quickly reached out to search his body.
He finally found half a steamed bun. He had bought it on the way here. He was used to being a beggar, so he couldn’t bear to throw it away even if he had not finished it.
He quickly handed the steamed bun to Bian Yuanzhi, who was stunned for a second and almost fell into the water again.
Ah Mao quickly supported him and pulled him to sit on a rock at the side. “Eat here.”
After stuffing the steamed bun into Bian Yuanzhi’s hands, Ah Mao went to wash his clothes.
Bian Yuanzhi was startled. He wanted to stop him, but when he saw the steamed bun in his hand, he couldn’t help but gulp.
He looked at Cat again, then at the steamed bun. After a few times, he finally lowered his head and took a bite.
After he finished eating, Ah Mao finished washing most of the clothes. He rubbed the dirty parts and soaked the lingeries in the water. Anyway, it was impossible to tell if he had washed them or not.
“Let’s go, I’ll send you back. Don’t worry, I’ll just walk to the door. I won’t go in.” Ah Mao smiled at him. His smile was very funny, and Bian Yuanzhi lowered his guard.
After sending him to the Gu family’s door, Ah Mao left.
When he returned to the village chief’s house, he happened to see Ah Shu walking out with a gloomy expression. He scolded the village chief loudly, “Damn it, I only want to settled down and you charge me so much money. Why don’t you rob me? It’s not like I only have a place like your Gu village to choose from. Do you really think this place is in high demand? Some old fart is already so old, yet he’s still so greedy. I won’t settle down here.”
After saying that, he ignored the cries behind him. When he saw Ah Mao come over, he gave him a look and the two of them left.
Ah Shu sat on the mule cart and said excitedly, “You don’t know, but this Chief Gu is really a talent.. Do you know what he did?”
