Blood from Daming

Chapter 2 Refugees
Just a few steps out of Xue's mansion, I saw the youngest Mao following up, saying: "Third young master, the master asked the villain to follow you to run errands for the third young master and lead the way."

The streets on the west side are very bustling. There are shops selling everything on both sides of the street, and there are also many stalls.Xue Yun watched as he walked. ,, the front is even more lively, after all, I spend a lot of time in the country, and it is also novel to watch.When I was in the countryside, I studied literature and martial arts with Qi Bo, and life was very hard, but I have persisted in these years and I have achieved great results.Some accidents today have benefited me a lot. I feel that a lot of things have poured into my brain, and the strength of my whole body has also strengthened a lot. There are still many things that I have to digest slowly.

Xue Yun was engrossed in his thoughts when suddenly there was a commotion ahead, surrounded by a large group of people watching the excitement.Xue Yun was about to turn around and walk away when a little girl about twelve or thirteen years old rushed out of the crowd, her face was dirty, her body was tattered, and she was holding a small half of pancake in her hand.

A greasy middle-aged man turned around behind her and shouted: "Small, dare to be a robber in broad daylight, see if I don't kill you."

The little girl rushed straight towards Xue Yun's body, Xue Yun couldn't dodge it at this moment, so he had to stop.The middle-aged man slapped the little girl with his palm.The little girl fell in front of Xue Yun, and the man slapped Xue Yun with a palm, Xue Yun quickly stretched out his hand to block the man's palm.When the man saw that he almost hit the wrong person, he was at a loss for a moment, so the youngest Mao rushed forward and yelled at the man loudly.

"That man, you don't know how to live or die, and dare to beat my young master." While speaking, he pushed the man with his hands.

The middle-aged man hurriedly backed away, panicked for a moment and didn't know what to do, Xue Yun stopped the youngest Mao and said to the middle-aged man: "Is there anything you can talk about slowly, how can you hit someone with your hands?"

The middle-aged man's wrists were numb from Xue Yun's shock, and he was terrified and heard that the person in front of him was the young master of that family. He lost most of his courage at once, and hurriedly said: "Young master offended, it is really the villain who wants to beat you!" I don't want to make a mistake, please forgive me, Young Master."

Xue Yun said: "Even if it's like this, it shouldn't be. How can a girl's family resist being beaten by a big man like you? If you break it, you will inevitably face a lawsuit."

At this time, the people around gathered around, and everyone started to talk about it. It turned out that this girl somehow caught the pancakes of the middle-aged man selling pancakes, and the middle-aged man chased and beat her all the way.An old man in the crowd came up to the middle-aged pancake seller and said, "She's not worth much for a piece of pancake, so how can you beat this girl so hard?"

The middle-aged pancake seller said: "It's not that I don't understand reason, old man, there are too many people begging for food. If I all show kindness, the villain's family will not even think about living a life."

The old man sighed: "The soldiers in the east are in chaos, refugees are everywhere, what's wrong with this world!"

The old man said: "I'll pay the money she sent you, that's fine."

The middle-aged man: "Excuse me, old man, the total is five Wen."

The old man said: "A small piece of pancake is worth five Wen. Could it be that it is easy to deceive me when I am old?"

The middle-aged man: "She only has a small piece of pancake in her hand, and she stained the pancake on the ground, so of course she has to add it together."

The old man was annoyed: "You are really a profiteer and don't take any losses, so what if you beat her."

The middle-aged man: "Then charge a little less, how about four Wen?"

The old man: "Five cents is five cents. If you hit her, you will suffer a bit. How about giving this girl a piece of pancake? It's a good deed if you make less money."

What did the middle-aged man want to say? Xue Yun was annoyed, and said loudly: "What else do you want to do? It's your fault for beating people. Why don't you follow the old man's idea."

The middle-aged man looked at Xue Yun and said in fear, "Just follow your two ideas."

Xue Yun also wanted to take out money to pay, and reached out his hand to feel the empty pockets, only to remember that he had been ill for a few days and only recovered today, and he came to the city so suddenly that he was penniless.At this time, the old man took out five cents and put it in the hands of the middle-aged pancake seller. The middle-aged pancake seller quickly put it away and put it in his waist pocket, then turned around and squeezed through the crowd to wrap it in leaves in front of his stall. A piece of pancake, hurried over and handed that piece of pancake to her.At this time, the girl had quietly hid behind the old man, and the old man took the pancakes that the middle-aged man handed over.Put it in the girl's hand and say: "Little girl, take it, don't do this in the future, you will suffer in this world."

The old man sighed heavily.The girl knelt down to the old man with the pancakes and tears in her eyes.Xue Yun looked sad for a while, and turned to the youngest Mao and said, "Do you have any money with you, please lend it to me."

The youngest Mao: "Master, you don't want to help a girl, do you?"

Xue Yun said: "Yes!"

The youngest Mao: "There are a lot of people like Young Master in the capital, how much can you help them?"

Xue Yun said: "I borrow money from you, what are you talking about, do you want to borrow money or not?"

The youngest Mao: "Can I borrow it?"

The youngest Mao took out more than ten Wen coins and a small piece of silver from his pocket.Xue Yun grabbed it and said, "Take it all from me, and pay you double when you go back."

The girl was helped up by the old man, Xue Yun stepped forward and put the money in the girl's hand, the girl looked up and took a deep look at Xue Yun, turned around and ran towards the alley beside the street, and disappeared at the end of the alley in a blink of an eye.

The spectators around were about to leave slowly, when a few dirty children gathered around and begged Xue Yun for money.Xue Yun was anxious because he had no money, and was very embarrassed.At this time, the old gentleman who had just given the money came forward and gave each of these children a penny, and the children scattered away after getting the money.The old gentleman smiled and said to Xue Yun: "It's good that you are kind-hearted, sir, but you have to do everything according to your ability, so as not to put yourself in a difficult situation."

Xue Yun blushed and said respectfully: "Mr. Xie's kind words, the boy has been educated."

The old gentleman said: "The child can be taught. I have to take a step ahead today. If you are free, you may wish to come and walk under the old man."

Xue Yun said: "Okay, I am going to ask the old gentleman for advice."

The old gentleman said: "My husband's house is at the west end of this street, there are about ten shops in the direction of Zhengyangmen called "Xuji Silk Shop". "

Xue Yun said: "The boy must come to the door to ask the old man for advice."

The old man also left quickly.The youngest Mao murmured to Xue Yun: "Third Young Master Tartars have occupied Shenyang, and there are many refugees fleeing from the north. A few days ago, the Yamen servants and Jin Yiwei of Shuntian Mansion drove away many refugees. There are refugees, and there are refugees from the north who come to the Deshengmen area, and there are more people, probably tens of thousands."

Xue Yun was in a bad mood when he heard this, and lost all interest in playing for a while.Said to the youngest Mao: "Hey! Let's go back."

Xue Yun and Mao Laoyao turned back to go home. After walking a few steps, Mao Laoyao stopped Xue Yun, pointed to the two men who quickly entered an alley on the side of the street, and said, "The three young masters beat me, young master, you You must avenge me."

Xue Yun said, "Are you still fighting with people?"

The youngest Mao: "It wasn't a fight, I was beaten by them. The day before yesterday, the second young master was Xue Bo who bought him dried fruit and chased after him. On the way back, he accidentally bumped into these two filthy bastards. The kick kicked me a big bucket, it wasn't that fat guy who stopped the fat guy and came forward to beat me."

Xue Yun said: "It doesn't matter if I kick you, if it doesn't work, I won't break him either."

The youngest Mao: "That filthy bastard kicked me to this day and I still have a big swollen thigh. I can't walk and it still hurts. I scolded them, but the fat bastard responded in bird language. If it wasn't for the skinny guy Let's see if I don't scold those two filthy bastards to death, third young master, I know you are the best in middle school, you must help me let those low-grade bastards know how powerful our Xue family is."

Xue Yun said: "Did you hear clearly? You don't understand what the other party is saying."

The youngest Mao: "Yeah, I really don't understand."
