Chapter 72

Simiaomiao nearly fell down, but luckily Pei Qing helped him up in time.

The child was hit and fell to the ground, and then he quickly got up, as if he had hit someone and was about to run.

Pei Qingshang grabbed his collar and frowned slightly: "Apologize."

He was slipped into the hands of Pei Qingshang, and it was only then that Simiaomiao saw clearly that it was a little boy wearing a shabby padded jacket with a dirty face.

At this moment, he struggled desperately: "Let me go! Let me go!"

After finishing speaking, he clenched his small fist and swung it towards Pei Qingshang.

Pei Qingshang tilted his head slightly, easily dodging his attack.

Simiaomiao was quite surprised, and reprimanded with his hands on his hips: "You bad boy, why do you still beat someone if you don't apologize for what you did wrong?"

The little boy yelled hysterically: "I don't want you to care, what are you, let me go!"

He didn't stop doing anything, and directly bit the back of Pei Qingshang's hand. Pei Qingshang let go of him before he touched him.

As soon as the little boy landed on the ground, he stumbled and wanted to run, but five or six children with warm clothes and fair faces continued to rush out of the alley. They pointed at the little boy and roared with laughter: "Smelly rat, everyone shouted and beat you, look at you, you are disgusting!"

The group of children took out stones from their pockets and threw them at him.Even though the little boy dodged back and forth, he was still hit by some gravel on his forehead, and in an instant, a streak of blood red slowly appeared.

Simiaomiao was startled, and quickly pulled the little boy behind him. At the same time, Pei Qingshang was standing in front of Simiaomiao, grasping the gravel that almost fell on her.

His brows and eyes were cold and his aura was overwhelming.That condescending look made the children who were making trouble tremble.

Pei Qingshang coldly urged: "Go away."

The little fat man who was the leader among the group of children wiped his nose, a little unconvinced: "Who are you! Why should we listen to you? Are you a relative of this stinky mouse?"

Simiao Miao poked his head and scolded angrily: "No matter who we are, it's simply wrong for you to bully the few with more and more evil methods! Where are your adults, call out!"

The little fat man and the others took a step back in panic when they heard the call for their parents, and then the little fat man said bitterly: "He is famous for stealing things in this area. You say we are bad, why don't you arrest him and send him to the government?"

Simiao Miao: "You can report to the officials, but you can't beat people like this!"

When Xu Shi heard the word "report to the officer", the little boy behind Simiaomiao suddenly broke free from Simiaomiao's protection, turned around and ran away quickly.

Watching the little boy run away, Simiao Miao subconsciously touched the purse hanging around his waist, but found it was empty.

Simiaomiao turned pale with shock: "My money! He took it away."

The group of children roared with laughter: "I told you a long time ago, he is a thief and a repeat offender!"

Simiao Miao gritted his teeth and chased in the direction the little boy left.

brat!And steal it from her head!

Simiaomiao and Pei Qingshang chased him to a village on the outskirts of the city, only to see the child grabbing Simiaomiao's purse and rushing into a family's house, shouting: "Village chief! I'm rich, let me participate."

A man over fifty was standing in the yard and was feeding chickens. He only glanced at the purse held in the little boy's hand, the furrows on his face were slightly wrinkled, and his face was full of disdain and annoyance.

"How dare you give me the money you stole? And I've told you many times that the annual banquet in the village requires parents to bring their children to attend. Do you have parents?"

The little boy's hand holding the purse froze in the air, his eyes were flushed, and he said, "But if I don't attend the village's annual banquet, I can't make a wish to the land father-in-law. I also want my parents to come back soon."

He hugged the village chief's arm and wanted to put the purse into his hand: "Grandpa village chief, please help me! As long as I can attend the New Year's banquet, I can make a wish, and then my parents will come back. I am no longer an orphan without parents."

The childish utterances of the child were ridiculous to the head of the village.He waved impatiently and pushed the little boy away.

The little boy fell to the ground, Simiao Miao's purse also fell to the ground, and some copper coins spilled out.

"If you dare to pester me again, I'll beat you up and send you to the government!" The village chief said viciously, threw the chicken food on the ground, and slammed the door into the house.

The little boy seemed to want to cry, but he held back.He just silently picked up the money on the ground and put it in his purse. When he walked out of the village chief's house in a daze, he saw Pei Qingshang and Simiaomiao standing at the door with unhappy faces.

He was startled, and threw the purse over: "I'll return the money to you! I didn't steal it, I borrowed it!"

Simiao Miao ran over and grabbed him: "Stealing is stealing. How dare you call it borrowing. If the village chief took the money just now, don't you plan to pay it back?"

The little boy was about eight years old, but his complexion was thin and yellow, with only a pair of bright black eyes.

Under Simiaomiao's hands, he is like a thin little chicken: "If my parents come back, I can give them all back to you. I didn't lie!"

"Then why did the group of kids say that you often steal things on that street?!"

"Because I'm very hungry, I don't have money to buy food, even if I take a bun, I will write it down, and I will return it to them in the future!"

Simiaomiao looked into his bright black eyes, thinking that he should be a carefree age, but he was forced to become a philistine due to life.

Simiao Miao snorted coldly: "I don't believe it!"

The little boy was anxious: "I can take you to my house to see!"

He ran to the front to lead the way, and Simiaomiao dragged Pei Qingshang to follow.The little boy looked back from time to time, always peeking at Pei Qingshang.

However, Pei Qingshang had an indifferent expression on his face, and he didn't speak much along the way.

What Simiaomiao didn't expect was that the little boy's home was a thatched cottage.

Probably because of the snow a few days ago, a piece of the roof of his house collapsed, and it has not been repaired until now.

After opening the door, four words are not enough to describe the poverty here.

In the small room, there is a bed on the right, a bed in the middle, a table and a cupboard outside, and there is nothing else.

The little boy led Simiao Miao into the inner room. On the wall next to the small bed, there were several "positive" characters engraved on it, and next to it was written records such as owed a steamed bun to a certain shopkeeper on a certain day.

After reading all of them, Simiao Miao probably had a good idea.

She looked at the cautious boy beside her: "So why are you stealing my money from the village chief?"

"Every New Year in our village, all the villagers have to have a New Year feast together to worship the land father-in-law. If you make a wish with the land father-in-law that day, it will come true. My parents traveled far away when I was very young. As long as I make a wish with the land father-in-law, they will definitely come back soon!"

Speaking of this, he was slightly sad: "But because I don't have my parents by my side, the village chief doesn't allow me to have dinner with them. I want to give him money to make him more flexible, but he still refuses."

After speaking, he secretly looked at Pei Qingshang again.

Simiao Miao's expression was stern: "Why do you always look at him?!"

The little boy's tears that had been welling up in his eyes suddenly fell: "He is a bit like my mother, always cold and fierce."

 Today is still standing on the hillside calling for votes and calling for love Xianmi!Everyone!Thanks to my family, Wu Li, for the reward, ho ho.If you praise me, I can be happy for many days.
