Chapter 242 Sympathy
"Yiyi, how about this braided bracelet?"

Looking at the bracelet on Ning Yuexin's wrist, Ling Yi said: "It looks very good and suits you very well."

Hearing her words, Ning Yuexin smiled happily.

"Boss, how much is this?"

"One hundred twenty."

"One hundred and two? So expensive?!"

"Little girl, the jade on this bracelet is Hetian jade, so the price is not expensive."

"It's too expensive, boss, please make it cheaper."

"For the sake of your good looks, how about I give you ten yuan cheaper and sell it to you for one hundred and one?"

"boss……"

Ling Yi, who was by Ning Yuexin's side and watched her haggle with the owner who sells bracelets, glanced at the vines looking around at the stall not far in front of them from time to time, to prevent him from losing him if he was not careful. .

When Ling Yi saw a man in tattered clothes and dirty clothes standing in the corner trying to get close to Teng, she frowned slightly and called Teng.

"You come back first." Ling Yi waved to Teng.

Thinking of what he promised Ling Yi before he came out, Teng took a nostalgic look at the stall in front of him, and then ran back to Ling Yi.

"Yiyi, what did you ask me to come back for?" Teng pouted dissatisfied.

You know, he was just looking at something novel that he had never seen before!

Ling Yi glanced at the man who had been staring at them after Teng ran back.

Although Ling Yi quickly looked away, Teng still saw the man standing in the corner.

After the man and Teng looked at each other, looking at Teng's frown, he thought Teng was pitying him. A flash of joy flashed on the man's face, and then he quickly picked up the stainless steel lunch box on the ground and walked towards them.

Before Ling Yi could say anything, two burly men stopped the man.

Looking at the man who was carried away, Teng's frowns loosened.

He snorted coldly, "You deserve it!"

Hearing his hum, Ning Yuexin, who was paying, raised her head, "What's wrong?"

Teng curled his lips at her, and then said: "Just now a person who looks very annoying at first glance wants to come to our side."

"Huh?" Ning Yuexin was confused by his words.

Ling Yiti Teng added: "A young beggar with able-bodied hands and feet just wanted to come to us to ask for some money, but was stopped by someone, so he didn't come."

A healthy young beggar?Hearing Ling Yi's adjective, Ning Yuexin immediately frowned in disgust.

She hates this kind of beggar who is obviously able-bodied but doesn't want to do anything, just want to get something for nothing.

Ning Yuexin patted Teng on the shoulder, "Okay, don't let that person ruin your good mood, let's continue shopping."

Children are not only forgetful, but their emotions change quickly. Hearing Ning Yuexin's words, Teng immediately put the person he hated just now behind him.

"Yiyi!" With sparkling eyes, he grabbed Ling Yi's sleeve.

"Let's go there!" Teng raised his hand and pointed to the small stall that had just dazzled him. "There are many beautiful things there."

Looking at his sparkling eyes, Ling Yi curled her lips and followed his strength and walked forward.

Ning Yuexin carried the things she bought, and walked beside Teng, she asked: "Teng, you just looked at the stall for so long, is there anything you want to buy?"

Teng was taken aback by her question, "Huh?"

"What's wrong? Didn't you catch a single thing?"

"I fancy a lot of things! But why do I buy the things I fancy?" Teng was very puzzled.

Isn't it all right to look at something you fancy?

Hearing his natural tone when he said this, Ning Yuexin and Ling Yi looked at him at the same time.

Seeing the extremely simple doubts in his eyes, Ning Yuexin blinked.

Fuji was right!

You really don't have to buy something you fancy.

but……

Looking at Teng's starry eyes full of doubts, Ning Yuexin had a look on her face. Why did she feel there was something wrong with Teng's words?

Ning Yuexin looked at Ling Yi, wanting her to clarify her doubts.

Ling Yi lowered her eyes to hide the complexity in her almond eyes. After the agitation in her heart calmed down, she looked at Teng and said lightly, "You're right."

For people like them, when they meet something they like, they can just look at it, and there is no need to ruin something that is hard to get a good eye for.

Hearing Ling Yi's agreement, Teng smiled and rolled his eyes.

"Let's go over quickly and have a look."

Ning Yuexin and Si Ling, who was following Ling Yi as an invisible person, looked at each other, and they both saw doubts in each other's eyes.

Looking at Si Ling's expressionless face, Ning Yuexin rubbed her nose, and quickly walked a few steps to catch up with Ling Yi.

However, before they reached the stall, they stopped.

Looking at Teng who was attracted by the grilled sausage opposite them, Ning Yuexin took Teng to the tricycle selling grilled sausages.

"Yiyi, do you want some skewers?"

Ling Yi shook her head, "I don't like this kind of food."

"Alright then!" Ning Yuexin shrugged.

"Boss, here are two skewers of sausage."

"okay!"

Although she doesn't like to eat this kind of junk food very much, but seeing Teng staring at the grilled sausage eagerly, she has an inexplicable desire to eat it.

Teng looked at the grilled sausage, then at Ling Yi, Ling Yi nodded slightly.

"Yeah!" Teng cheered and took the grilled sausage Ning Yuexin handed over.

Ning Yuexin took a bite, and instantly, the strong taste of flour filled her mouth. She swallowed with difficulty, and then looked at Teng.

"Why don't you eat?"

Teng carried the packed sausage and said to Ning Yuexin, "I want to take this sausage back for Li Yan to eat."

"(⊙o⊙) what?" Ning Yuexin stared blankly at the rattan.

"Hey!" Teng pretended to be sad and sighed.

"Li Yan is very poor."

Li Yan?poverty? !
Ling Yi and Si Ling looked at Teng at the same time.

"Why do you think Uncle Li is poor?" Ling Yi asked.

Teng looked at Ling Yi and said seriously: "At midnight last night, the friend he brought home was hungry and wanted to ask him for a sausage, but he said no."

Just now Ning Yuexin bought two sausages for only four yuan, but Li Yan couldn't even afford one sausage. Doesn't this mean that he doesn't even have two yuan in his hand?

If you don't even have two dollars, isn't it poor?

Although Ning Yuexin didn't know who Li Yan was, she knew that there was something wrong with what Teng said just by looking at Ling Yi's face and the beautiful bodyguard standing behind Ling Yi who couldn't hold back her expression.

But, what's wrong?
Seeing Teng's serious eyes when he said this, Ning Yuexin blinked.

Ling Yi asked in embarrassment, "Did you eavesdrop on their conversation outside Uncle Li's room?"

Normal people shouldn't have the hobby of letting other people watch when they do things, right?
Teng's eyes widened instantly, "How do you know?"

Now Ning Yuexin finally came to her senses, her face twitched and immediately turned red.

Ling Yi said without changing his face: "Guess."

Teng glanced at the expression on Ling Yi's face, hesitated and said, "I didn't mean to eavesdrop on what they were saying."

He was just thirsty in the middle of the night, and when he went to the kitchen to drink water, he heard a strange sound in Li Yan's room, so he quietly ran outside his room to listen to the corner.

Seeing Teng's aggrieved and innocent expression, Si Ling finally couldn't hold back the expression on her face, and she coughed to suppress the smile in her heart.

"Teng, do you know what time it was at night when that woman said she was hungry?"

"Oh... it should be almost twelve o'clock, right?" Vine said with some uncertainty.

"Pfft—" Now, Si Ling finally couldn't help laughing.

Uncle Li went back to the small building with the woman he caught at about eleven o'clock last night. It took the two of them at most an hour, and they were all dead before midnight. Could it be Tie Zhumo? Is it a needle?
Ning Yuexin coughed, and she reluctantly said: "Then what, Xiaoteng! The reason why your friend was poor yesterday was because his boss hadn't paid him last month's salary; today his boss will pay him He won’t be poor when he has a salary, so this, um, sausage, you can eat it yourself, don’t keep it for him.”

After saying this, Ning Yuexin looked around, she ran to the nearest trash can with a smile, and threw the sausage in her hand.

She thought that she should not be able to look directly at sausages in a short time.

"Yiyi, is Xinxin telling the truth?"

Ling Yi nodded.

Even if it wasn't true now that she would pay Li Yan her salary today, she would have to make it true when she returned to the villa later.

Of course, when Si Qingcang pays Li Yan his salary, she will remind him by the way that the next time he does something unsuitable for children, he must remember to close the doors and windows.

By the time Ning Yuexin returned to Ling Yi, Teng was already eating grilled sausages and skipping ahead to look for other things that interested him.

Seeing Teng's carefree appearance, Ning Yuexin sighed with emotion.

"What's the matter? Why are you sighing so well?"

Ning Yuexin shook her head at Ling Yi with a deep expression, "You don't understand."

Miss Qianjin like Ling Yi, who has never worried about money at first glance, will not know the troubles in life of people like them who need to calculate every time they spend money.

Ling Yi slightly raised her eyebrows, "If you don't tell me, how do you know I don't understand?"

You know, it is not an exaggeration to say that she knows both astronomy and geography.

Looking at Teng's profile, Ning Yuexin said: "I sighed because I thought of a child who was about the same size as Teng."

Upon hearing her words, Ling Yi knew that Ning Yuexin really regarded Teng as a ten-year-old child.

"The child's name is Liu Yan, and he is an orphan without a father or a mother.

His parents died in a car accident two years ago, and he now lives with his great aunt.

Although his aunt's family did not abuse him, he experienced the warmth and coldness of society prematurely.

That child..."

Thinking of the child's skinny appearance when she first saw it, Ning Yuexin sighed again.

Hearing the name Liu Yan, Ling Yi's heart beat faster, and she asked calmly, "What's wrong with that child?"

When she saw him selling flowers on the side of the road at night in Jingzhou last time, she guessed that his life must not be very good now.

However, although her uncle was very kind to her, he never told her anything about his past.

Ning Yuexin continued: "His aunt's family basically doesn't care about him except to feed him.

When I first saw the child, he was skinny due to malnutrition.

I thought he was pitiful, so I asked him to come to my store to help out when he was free, and then I gave him some money to buy some necessities he needed.

Later, his eldest aunt knew that he had money, so she simply didn't even pay the tuition for him.

Before I left Jingzhou, except for a free room and board, he had to rely on himself for everything. "

A child who is only in his teens has to earn money to support himself. One can imagine the difficulties.

Ling Yi frowned, "His parents died in a car accident, didn't he get any compensation?"

Could it be that his aunt's family embezzled the money his parents had exchanged for their deaths?

Ning Yuexin understood what Ling Yi meant, but she shook her head, "There is no compensation."

"How could it be possible without compensation?" Ling Yi didn't believe it.

"This is what Liu Yan told me."

Since Liu Yan said this himself, Ling Yi temporarily chose to believe his words.

Because, she knew that, as a person with a stomach full of ink, Liu Yan would never let herself suffer.

Looking at the distress and nostalgia on Ning Yuexin's face.

Although Ling Yi didn't want to admit it, but thinking about Liu Yan and her childhood when they tossed the people in the villa together, she guessed that Liu Yan came to Ning Yuexin on purpose.

Because, as far as his current situation is concerned, without the help of well-meaning people, he might not be able to complete his studies.

For Liu Yan who has nothing now, studying is the fastest way for him to get rid of the status quo.

Thinking of this, Ling Yi didn't say anything.

However, thinking of the experience of doing bad things with Liu Yan, she felt much better.

Looking at the silent Ling Yi, Ning Yuexin shrugged and stopped bringing up this frustrating topic.

Seeing the vines getting farther and farther away from them, Ning Yuexin said: "Let's go, let's catch up with the vines."

Ling Yi rubbed her temples, temporarily put aside the matter of Qu Youlin, then followed Ning Yuexin's pace, and walked quickly towards the vine...

When shopping next time, Ling Yi finally stopped being distracted.

This made Si Ling, who had been anxiously helping her watch the road, heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.

Because, she finally didn't have to worry about Ling Yi accidentally bumping into the wall while walking.

When she is in a daze, no one can call her soul back. When she is in a daze, she has a serious expression on her face, so that people who are not familiar with her can't see that she is distracted. Her master is quite powerful!

Si Ling complained silently in his heart.

From the beginning to the end of the shopping in the Antique Street, Ling Yi didn't buy anything; and Teng didn't spend a penny except for a roast sausage provided by Ning Yuexin. Yuexin bought a few trinkets.

Therefore, Ning Yuexin forced herself to put something into the hands of two empty-handed people before she was willing to part with them.
