Chapter 67

Doing Good

Facing the child's dark eyes, Jiang Chenqi felt an inexplicable sadness. How could such a young child survive in such a huge capital without the protection of her family? Just like her back then, if Shen Yan hadn't been kind enough to help, she would have been homeless. Become a little beggar on the street.

Although Shen Yan took advantage of her, he allowed her to grow up without having to worry about food and clothing without having to squat on the street begging for food.

"Don't worry, there's no poison in the buns. I just took them out of the steamer. I'm not a bad person who abducts children. I just came to the capital not long ago and opened a grocery store. If you don't believe it, I'll eat a bun and show it to you. Six The buns made by my mother are delicious." She picked up a bun and ate it. Jiang Chenqi thought it was good that the little beggar was vigilant.

Without the protection of his parents, the little beggar must be wary of strangers in order to avoid the bad guys' plans.

Holding up the bun to show the little beggar and letting him see the meat filling inside, Jiang Chenqi smiled and said: "This is a bun with pork stuffing. I have a good friend who is a butcher. She often gives us pork to eat. If we can't finish it, we will be six Mom made it into steamed buns. With green vegetables in it, the taste is not inferior to the steamed buns sold on the roadside." Perhaps Jiang Chenqi's food was too delicious, which made the little beggar greedy.

The little guy snatched the bowl from Jiang Chenqi's hand, picked up the steamed buns and wolfed them down. Without disturbing the little beggar from enjoying the steamed buns, Jiang Chenqi raised her feet to go back to the store when she was stopped by a round-faced aunt passing by.

The round-faced aunt lowered her voice and said mysteriously: "Young man, I think you are unfamiliar. You are a foreigner who has just arrived in the capital. You don't know how powerful the beggars in our capital are.

Although this little beggar is young, he is as cruel as a wolf cub. If you kindly give him a few buns today, tomorrow he will lead a group of little beggars and stand guard at the door of the store. They will not leave without giving you food, which will delay you. Open a shop and do business.”

It is understandable that children behave in small ways in order to beg for some food. They cannot survive without food, and they must do whatever it takes to survive.

Thanking her aunt for her kind reminder, Jiang Chenqi said in a serious tone: "This little beggar is as skinny as a little monkey. I can't bear it. It's just a few buns. I can afford it. If they miss a meal, they What to do if you die from hunger.

They cannot enjoy the love and care of their families. Just like weeds on the roadside being beaten by wind and rain, feeling a touch of warmth in the world may give them the courage to live. For homeless beggars, life is too difficult and they have to find a way to survive. Give yourself some reasons to live strong."

These words made the aunt soften her heart. She took out a few fruits from the vegetable basket and gently placed them in front of the little beggar. She hoped that this little guy would experience the tenderness of the world. She didn't take the aunt's words to heart, and Jiang Chenqi was happy to give them to the little beggar. Kindness. Let them know that there is warmth in the world and there is hope in life.

Xie Jinghuai was touched when he heard the conversation between the round-faced aunt and Jiang Chenqi. He knew that Jiang Chenqi was a kind girl, but her kind actions sometimes caused some trouble.

Pointing to the old beggar holding a broken bowl begging for money not far away, Xie Jinghuai said with a smile: "The little beggar is not homeless. The little beggar who can move around freely in the capital has the old beggar protecting him behind him." Taking advantage of people's sympathy in exchange for food and money.

You shouldn't give him a few buns today. The little beggar has discovered that you are a soft-hearted person and will bring your friends to come to you tomorrow." It's okay to come to her. She won't give money to the children, but is willing to give them food to satisfy their hunger.

Jiang Chenqi smiled calmly and said, "Sometimes I don't think so much about things, especially when doing good deeds. It's pointless to look forward and backward. If you are a little beggar, you can come to me if you are hungry. Although I am not a rich and noble person, I am a high-ranking official at least.

My salary is enough for me to do good deeds."

Early the next morning, Jiang Chenqi opened the store to do business and saw several shivering children sitting in front of the store.

It was a bit cool in the early autumn morning. The children were wearing thin clothes and could not get heat in the autumn wind.

Jiang Chenqi immediately softened her heart, bent down and patted the child's shoulder gently, "Are you hungry? You don't have to wait in front of the store next time. The back door is sheltered from the wind and is warmer. I will take you to the back door. You can wait there for a while. I will come right away.

Make a fire and cook.”

The few beggars didn't say anything. They followed Jiang Chenqi to the back door like little ducks. They stood at the door obediently and did not enter the yard. They watched Jiang Chenqi walk into the kitchen expectantly. After a while, the smell of food came from the kitchen, and Jiang Chenqi turned on the heat.

Steaming noodles are placed on the stove.

After finding cleaning tools and handing them to the older child in the lead, Jiang Chenqi told him that by cleaning the yard, he could get food. "My friends are still asleep. I lack helpers to clean up the yard, and the weeds on the ground have to be pulled out."

If you are willing to help, I can give you a bowl of noodles as reward." The few beggars nodded desperately and used their energy to clean up the yard, and soon the backyard was tidy.

After bringing a tray and placing the noodles on the stone table, Jiang Chenqi brought a wooden basin and asked the children to wash their hands. "It's best to wash your hands before eating so that your stomach won't hurt."

The warm-hearted aunt said that the little beggar was like a wolf cub, but he was particularly well-behaved in front of Jiang Chenqi.

They washed their little hands and picked up chopsticks to eat noodles. They were surprised to find that there were shredded pork in the noodles and a fried egg at the bottom of the bowl. It was a hearty breakfast.

Smiling, she asked the little beggar if he was alright after eating. Seeing them all shaking their heads, Jiang Chenqi said with a smile: "If you have nothing to do, why don't you help me with the work? I'll make a few small tools, and how about you help me peel chestnut shells. I plan to

Chestnuts are roasted in front of the store and sold to passers-by. People don’t like chestnut shells, so peeled chestnuts will definitely sell better.”

She promised a few children that she would be rewarded with a few kilograms of grain noodles and two big bones for their work. When the children nodded in agreement, Jiang Chenqi took them to the side room, found a sack of chestnuts, made a few small tools and gave them to the children.

Jiang Yuyou and others got up one after another and found the little beggar working in the side room. Everyone knew that Jiang Chenqi was kind-hearted, and they were not surprised by her actions to help the little beggar. The little beggar had three meals at Jiang Chenqi's place, and each meal was delicious

Very full, with oil and water in my stomach.

They took the rewards of their labor and left with satisfaction. Walking in the secluded alley, the little beggars started talking and chirped that they had met a living Bodhisattva.

Perhaps the little beggar returned to his residence to show off and praised Jiang Chenqi for her kindness and generosity. The next morning, an old beggar in ragged clothes appeared at the back door.

Jiang Chenqi was not surprised to see the old beggar, and quickly invited him into the side room, "It's a bit cold this morning, let's come and warm up by the fire. I went to the street yesterday to buy an iron basin for the fire, and it just came in handy today." The old beggar looked at Jiang Chenqi's busy work.

After busying himself, he nodded slightly in the dark.
