Several people turned around when they heard the sound, and when they saw the money to pick up, they immediately bent down and ran. The noise attracted the theatergoers, and a group of people crowded on the street to fight for it.

Seeing that the gangsters didn't catch up, Yue Qingran took the little boy and ducked into the nearest restaurant.

The movements of the little boy's feet stagnated, and no matter how hard she pulled them, they wouldn't budge.

Yue Qingran turned around and asked strangely: "Let's go, why don't you go?"

The little boy looked into the restaurant with some fear, "No - you can't go in, they won't let me in."

Yue Qingran looked suspicious, "It's not like I don't want to pay, why don't they let you in?"

The waiter in the store saw Yue Qingran and the two of them and quickly came forward to greet them, "What do you want to eat, girl?"

Yue Qingran pointed at the little boy and said, "Waiter, please get a private room and bring him some of your signature side dishes and two bowls of rice."

The waiter looked at the little boy, then turned to look at Yue Qingran up and down, then put on a smile and said, "Okay, girl, please come this way!"

Yue Qingran looked at the little boy, "What? Still not leaving?"

The little boy lowered his head, raised his heels and walked behind Yue Qingran, cautiously testing step by step.

Under the guidance of the waiter, Yue Qingran and the two successfully arrived at the private room. They didn't have to wait long. Another waiter came up with a tray. When he saw the little boy clearly, he said in surprise, "Ah, is it you?"

Yue Qingran asked curiously, "What? Do you know each other?"

"I can't say we know each other, but I have a relationship with our store. I came here to beg for food a few times, but I was bombarded each time——"

The waiter hesitated, not knowing what to say.

Yue Qingran nodded clearly, "Were they all kicked out?"

The waiter scratched his head in embarrassment.

Yue Qingran is not a holy mother. She can understand the restaurant's practices and will not embarrass the waiter. Moreover, if a little boy dresses like a beggar and goes to any store, it will indeed affect other people's business. This is why Yue Qingran wants a

The reason for the elegant room.

He waved his hand to the waiter to step aside and pushed the food in the direction of the little boy, "Here, eat."

The little boy looked at Yue Qingran timidly, "Can I eat these?"

After receiving Yue Qingran's affirmation, the little boy's eyes turned red. He stood up, took a step back, knelt on his knees, and kowtowed a few times, "Thank you, big sister, for your life-saving grace. Ever since I was little, no one has ever expressed my gratitude to me."

I'm so happy."

Yue Qingran quickly helped the person up, "Okay, okay, how can it be so serious? Get up quickly and talk."

The boy loosened his tightly clenched palms and said, "This is for you, sister, don't worry, I will pay you back the rest of the money slowly."

Looking at the two copper plates that the boy regarded as treasures, he felt a little moved, "Is it because you were protecting these two copper plates that you were beaten like this?"

The little boy nodded heavily, "I'm lucky today. Not only did I meet the big sister, but I also got two copper coins. I can buy two steamed buns. I won't be hungry for two days."

Yue Qingran didn't know how to express her feelings at this time, "Money is something external to the body, and nothing is as important as life. In the future, when encountering such a situation, you must first protect yourself, you know?"

"But if that were the case, he would have starved to death long ago."

Yue Qingran choked up, yes, how can you put yourself in other people's shoes if you have never suffered?

She forced a smile and said, "Okay, this is your hard-earned money. Keep it for yourself. It won't be too late to pay it back to me when you make a lot of money in the future."

Seeing that the little boy was still hesitant, she took back her hand and said, "The dishes will get cold if you don't eat them. I asked the waiter to take them back!"

The little boy looked at the delicious food on the table, swallowed, and quickly shook his head, "I'll eat it!"

After sitting down again, the little boy grabbed the meat slices and chicken drumsticks on the plate and started stuffing them into his mouth.

Yue Qingran picked up some vegetables and quickly reminded, "Slow down, these are all yours. Have you been hungry for a long time? Don't just eat meat. If your stomach can't stand it, eat some vegetables too."

The little boy's movements stagnated, he put down the chicken leg, and ate the vegetables obediently.

Yue Qingran asked curiously, "What's your name? Where is your family?"

The little boy swallowed the food in his mouth and slowed down his movements, "I don't have a name. The beggars in the Chenghuang Temple call me little beggar. I don't have a family either. I grew up following beggars."

Yue Qingran was a little confused, "Growing up with beggars?"

"Yeah!" The little beggar nodded heavily, took another bite of the chicken leg and whimpered: "I was thrown into a ruined temple in a small town, and was picked up by the beggar grandpa. Grandpa was very good to me, and he always gave me food first.

They gave me something to eat. Later, there was a flood in the small county. In order not to starve to death, my grandfather took me along the way to beg. However, my grandfather was not in good health and he still starved to death on the way. When I was five years old, I begged a kind-hearted man.

The aunt gave me a broken mat, and then helped me bury my grandpa, and then I followed the begging team all the way to the capital."

After Yue Qingran heard all this, she fell into deep thought. She always felt that no one had a rougher fate than her, but compared to the little beggar, she was undoubtedly lucky. She reached out and stroked the little beggar's hair that was like withered grass.

The little beggar hid back and looked at Yue Qingran's fair little hands that were stained with dirt because she touched them. Her face turned red, "Sister, I, I'm dirty."

Yue Qingran rubbed his head and showed a harmonious smile, "I don't dislike it."

The little beggar sniffed, tears streaming down his face, leaving two white marks on his gray-black face.

He took out a handkerchief and wiped away the little beggar's tears, "Do you know why I saved you?"

The little beggar shook his head in confusion.

Yue Qingran patiently explained, "Because your eyes are clean and tenacious, and they remind me of an old friend. She is an orphan just like you."

…

The little beggar swept away the food on the table and licked the oil stains on the plate with some reluctance.

"Okay, that's all oil, be careful not to eat it." After saying that, Yue Qingran took out a pill and handed it to the little beggar, "Take this."

The little beggar put down the plate embarrassedly, took the pills without any hesitation, and swallowed them!

Yue Qingran joked: "Aren't you afraid that what I give you is poison?"

The little beggar shook his head, "Big sister is a good person, and little beggar's life is not worth anything. Even if it is poison, I will take whatever the big sister gives me!"

Yue Qingran smiled and looked at the little beggar carefully, "It's a pretty good seedling."

After thinking for a while, he then asked, "How old are you, little beggar?"

The little beggar thought for a while, counted the numbers on his fingers, and said uncertainly, "It seems to be thirteen years old!"
