The Ming Dynasty took an unconventional approach

Pan Xiaohei just slipped in from the city gate, saw this scene, and burst out laughing.

If she hadn't taken this step back...

Pan Yun raised his head stiffly and angrily cursed at the bird flying overhead: "You are a starving ghost, getting up so early, can't you take care of your physiological problems at home before going out?"

The people nearby all turned their heads to look at her.

An old man carrying a bookcase squinted his eyes and looked up at the sky. He couldn't help but say happily: "This child is good. It's not his fault. He recognizes it clearly."

"Old man, you are praising people blindly again. What does this bird know? Isn't it stupid to get angry with a bird?"

"No, no," the old man stroked his beard and shook his head. "If she doesn't get angry with the bird, will she get angry with me? I think she's very good."

The old man seemed to like Pan Yun very much. Even though his eyesight was not good, he took out two copper coins from his sleeve and stuffed them into Pan Yun's pocket. He smiled and said, "Don't be angry, kid. Go buy some buns and your bad luck will be over."

Pan Yun didn't really need the two copper coins, but the old man's words were very nice, so she took them and said with a smile, "Thank you, old man."

Pan Yun took two cents and went to the bun shop next door to buy a big meat bun. After putting it in her mouth, she took out a string of copper coins, scanned every corner of the street, and asked the shop owner to give her two more big meat buns and eighty-eight steamed buns.

The shopkeeper was surprised: "So many?"

Pan Yun hummed, pointed to the bamboo basket with a fine cloth next to him and said, "Lend it to me for a while."

Because she bought a lot, the store owner agreed immediately.

Pan Yun asked him to put all the steamed buns into the bamboo basket. He took two big meat buns and then a steamed bun: "I bought so many, you give me one?"

The shopkeeper nodded happily: "Send, send, send. I'll give two girls away."

Pan Jun didn't hesitate and took two meat buns and two steamed buns. He turned around and caught up with the old man who was struggling to decide whether to eat vegetarian sesame cakes or vegetarian buns.

The pancake shop owner was teasing the old man: "You gave your money to others, so you can't afford meat anymore? Be careful, or your sister-in-law will find out and kick you out."

The old man laughed and said, "She just talks a lot, but she knows I'm using the money to do charity, so she won't chase me away. Give me a vegetarian cake."

Pan Yun handed him two meat buns and said, "Old man, I'll treat you to some meat buns."

The old man was surprised: "I gave you two cents, why did you give me two meat buns in return?"

Pan Yun: "I also got the old gentleman's blessing."

The old man burst into laughter when he heard this, took the meat bun, and said to the pancake shop owner, "I don't want to eat vegetarian pancakes anymore."

He and Pan Yun squatted on the side of the road eating meat buns. Pan Yun gave a steamed bun to Pan Xiaohei who came up to him and ate one himself.

The old man glanced at the black cat squatting and eating a steamed bun with its paws, and a look of amazement flashed in his eyes: "All things have spirits, and the book does not deceive me."

When Pan Jun heard this, he turned his head to look at him. Seeing that he had no cultivation at all, not even an ounce of internal energy, and was truly powerless, he withdrew his surprised gaze.

The old man smiled at her and said, "Young lady, you are not from the capital, right?"

Pan Yun said: "It used to be."

"Are you here to visit relatives or friends, or to do some business?"

Pan Yun: “Both.”

The old man nodded slightly, stopped talking, and lowered his head to concentrate on eating the buns.

The shop owner who sold steamed buns also picked up the buns for Pan Yun and directly brought the bamboo basket to her: "Dear guest, can you finish all these buns?"

Pan Yun nodded: "It's over."

She waved to the two children in the corner across from her.

The two children's eyes lit up and they immediately rushed over with their bowls. Pan Yun grabbed two steamed buns for each of them and waved them away.

A beggar not far away saw this and immediately rushed over, spewing out nice words as if they were free: "Miss, please be kind and give us something to eat..."

"The girl is very kind and compassionate, she will definitely marry into a good family..."

"The girl's kindness has touched the heavens. She will definitely be a dragon or a phoenix in her next life..."

Pan Yun didn't like these words of blessing, but she didn't dislike them either. She didn't do this just to hear their good words, or even for the little bit of merit she was receiving from them...

She knew that if she was in trouble, it would not be eliminated by doing these good deeds at the last minute.

She just accepted the old man's money and blessings, and wanted to do something.

It's a bit chilly in the morning in Beijing today. What could be more pleasant than having a hot breakfast on such a chilly morning?

When Pan Yun received the old man's blessing and two cents, the negative emotions caused by the bird droppings disappeared.

Now, as she distributed the steamed buns one by one and looked at the smiles on their faces, she couldn't help but smile as well, becoming even happier.

A few little beggars took the steamed buns, turned around and gave the buns to someone, then quietly lined up behind and took another round.

Pan Jun had a photographic memory, so she naturally recognized them, but she didn't point it out and still happily gave one to each of them.

After getting only one steamed bun, the little beggars realized that Pan Yun knew they were asking for the bun for the second time, so they ran away after getting the bun, and no longer queued up.

After a short while, all the steamed buns were distributed.

Pan Yun returned the bamboo basket to the shop owner, then squatted down and continued to eat the steamed buns.

The old man stared blankly. Although his eyesight was not good, his memory was still good. He walked this road at least four times a day and knew everyone on the street well.

He knew without even counting that all the beggars on the entire street had been given steamed buns.

He turned his head to look at Pan Yun, and seeing that she was eating the steamed bun happily, he couldn't help but smile and wrapped another meat bun.

Pan Yun turned to look at him: "You don't want to eat anymore?"

The old man smiled and said, "I am old now, so I just eat a meat bun and a bowl of hot soup in the morning."

As soon as he finished speaking, the owner of the steamed bun shop across the street brought two bowls of rice soup to them and said with a smile, "This is the rice soup in our shop. It's free when you buy steamed buns."

The old man took it and motioned for Pan Yun to try it too.

Pan Yun took it.

The old man put the buns away in his arms. Seeing Pan Yun still looking at him, he smiled and explained, "Take this back to my wife. She can heat it up for lunch."

Pan Yun nodded.

The old man looked at her kindly. Seeing that she was about to leave after drinking the rice soup generously, he stopped her and said, "As a person, you can't make things difficult for yourself. When doing things, you can't force yourself. Child, relax a little."

Pan Jun was stunned. Although his words were abrupt, there was nothing wrong with them, so he nodded: "I understand, old man."

The old man knew that she didn't understand, but he didn't force her. He nodded and let her go. "You are a good child."

Pan Jun smiled and nodded, and left happily after receiving the compliment.

The old man still sat by the wall, watching her leave happily, and murmured, "What a rare good child. I just hope she won't go astray in the future."

A familiar roar came from behind the old man: "Why are you still here! All the students are here!"

The old man quickly supported himself with his hands and got up from the ground, muttering, "I took the wrong road. Oh, how did I take the wrong road..." (End of this chapter)
