Xie Jing and Xiaohu looked at each other and saw bitterness in each other's eyes.

The weather is very cold these days and it is snowing outside. We have to get up at the hour of Mao to practice martial arts, which means we have to leave the warm bed before dawn.

Only Xie Lan could think of such a torturous punishment.

Seeing that the two children were silent, Xie Lan's tone became even colder, "Why, do you think one month is too short?"

Xie Jing hurriedly shook his head, "No, no, no, big brother, one month is just one month! Don't worry, I will start getting up early to practice martial arts from tomorrow and I will not miss a day!"

Xiao Hu had been tied to Xie Jing for a long time, and now he couldn't run away even if he wanted to, so he quickly expressed his attitude, "Me too!"

Hunter Wang stepped forward to smooth things over for the two men, saying, "Alright, now that the punishment is over, you should have a quick meal and rest. It's almost midnight."

Lotus said hurriedly: "I'll go heat up the food."

As he said this, he hurried to the kitchen.

Jiang Weiran waved to Xie Jing and Xiaohu, looked at the two boys with loving heart, and asked them about their well-being.

Jiang Wan now had the opportunity to introduce the Luoyue sisters to Xie Lan and the others. She waved at Luoyue, called the two to her side, and said to everyone, "They were kidnapped together with Xueling and Xiaoliu by the beggars. The older one is Luoyue and the younger one is Luoyao. They are siblings."

Xie Lan looked at the two of them without saying anything, only nodded to show that he understood.

Hunter Wang was enthusiastic and smiled at Luoyue Luoyao, saying, "When you come here, just treat it as your own home. Don't feel restrained."

Jiang Weiran also smiled and said, "I think these two children are very quiet and look like good kids. Wan'er, are they going to stay at home for a long time?"

Luoyue and Luoyao were originally very happy about everyone's welcoming attitude, but when they suddenly heard this question, they both looked at Jiang Wan nervously.

Jiang Wan felt the gazes of the two children and did not rush to speak. Instead, she asked Luoyue, "Luoyue, where is your home? Do you want me to take you back tomorrow?"

Luo Yue shook her head subconsciously, then hesitated and said, "Sister Wan, I, I want to go back after the New Year, is that ok?"

They have been missing for so many days, and I haven't heard that anyone is looking for them outside.

She was almost certain that the maid arranged by her aunt that day deliberately took them to a crowded place to buy candied haws.

Taking advantage of the crowd, the maid sneaked away, leaving her and Luo Yao lost in an unfamiliar place.

In the end, he was kidnapped by Paihuazi.

Everything happened so naturally.

And my aunt has probably already returned to Pingzhou.

She remembered her father saying that they would go to Kyoto to worship their ancestors before the New Year.

Originally, she and her father had agreed to go to Kyoto together on the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month.

But she and her brother did not go back, so she must have gone to Kyoto alone.

Now the aunt is the only one left in Pingzhou's home. If she and Luo Yao go back, wouldn't they be walking into a trap?

So Luoyue had the idea of ​​staying at Jiang Wan's house. She wanted to wait for her father to return from Kyoto, and then let Jiang Wan send them back.

"Sister Wan, Luo Yao and I are not living here for nothing. We will help you with the work! I can cook, embroider, and sew. I hope you don't dislike Luo Yao and me, and allow us to stay here for a while!"

As she spoke, she pulled Luo Yao and they all kneeled down in front of Jiang Wan, with a sincere and humble attitude.

Jiang Wan quickly helped the two of them up.

"Just talk, why do you have to kneel down at every turn?"

She felt a slight headache and said helplessly: "Luoyue, I didn't say I don't agree with you staying here, why are you being so grand?"

After being betrayed by her aunt, Luoyue's originally innocent character has grown a lot. In addition, there is no one to protect her, so she has to kneel down and beg for help.

She smiled bitterly and said, "Sister Wan, you saved us, brought us home, and gave us a shelter. I also asked you to take us in for a while. If I am not sincere, I will feel bad. Besides, I have no money on me now, so I can only do this."

Jiang Wan was moved by what she heard. Hearing Luoyue speak so logically, she became more convinced that her background was not simple.

But she didn't ask any more questions, instead she said: "I've already asked you to call me Sister Wan, can I still deny you food and drink?"

Luo Yue raised her head, her eyes full of gratitude, "Sister Wan, when my father returns from Kyoto...when I return home, I will definitely thank you profusely!"

Jiang Wan smiled faintly and said, "Don't say thank you or not. Since you met Xueling and the others, it's fate. I've already taken in Xiaohu and Xiaoliu, so I'm not afraid to take in two more. You and Luoyao can stay here as long as you want, no one will chase you away."

Luo Yue's eyes were red with emotion. She pulled Luo Yao and bowed deeply to Jiang Wan, "Thank you, Sister Wan!"

Hunter Wang smiled and said, "Alright, alright, we are all family from now on, no need to be so polite."

Luoyue was happy for her and her brother's luck. Fortunately, they met Xie Xueling and Xiaoliu, and also met Jiang Wan.

Otherwise, they don’t know where they would be sold to by human traffickers.

Lotus came in at this time and said, "The food is ready."

In order to liven up the atmosphere, Xie Xueling stood up and said, "Sister Hehua, I'm so hungry, I want to eat the crispy meat!"

Hehua is a good cook. Since she came to the family, the children have become fatter because of her feeding.

And the one she loved the most was Xie Xueling.

Who made this little girl so cute, sweet-mouthed and well-behaved?

"I know you like it, so I prepared it a long time ago."

Lotus said this and turned to serve the dishes.

Seeing this, Hunter Wang stood up and said, "I'll go help serve the dishes."

In order to avoid Xie Lan's dislike, Xie Jing immediately volunteered, "Brother Wang, I'll go get it. Your legs and feet are not working well!"

Having said this, he ran away.

Hunter Wang angrily cursed at Xie Jing's back, "Little bastard, who are you saying has weak legs and feet?!"

After saying that, he jumped out while leaning on his crutches.

Everyone looked at the two of them collecting treasures and smiled knowingly.

Soon the food was served.

The meal tonight was sumptuous, with almost all of the chicken, duck, fish and meat on the table.

Jiang Wan and his group had been running around in Luohe Town for most of the day and their stomachs had been growling with hunger. When they saw the delicious food, they were like hungry wolves with green eyes.

After the meal was finished in no time, the dishes on the table were clean without any juice left.

It was late at night, so everyone stopped chatting and simply washed up and went back to their rooms.

Luoyue lives with Xie Xueling, while Luoyao lives with Xie Jing.

The house at the back is big, and the kang in the house is big enough for two more children to sleep.

Jiang Wan was sitting on the edge of the kang taking off her hairpins. Just as she put the hairpins away, she heard a knock on the door.

She thought it was Hehua who came back after washing up, so she went to open the door with her hair down, but she didn't expect that the person who came was Xie Lan.
