Chapter 10, picked up two

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Lin Ye was originally throwing it towards those two stray dogs, but to his surprise, the dogs did not eat it

Are you hungry

In theory, such a powerful ruler as Jun Kaicheng, although not comparable to Ge Ling, should not be on equal footing with Yunzhou.

Lin Ye naturally took off the water bottle she carried with her, without any hesitation due to the dirtiness of the little beggar

Even among the other five major cities with special status, apart from the imperial capital Gelin, only the city of Pengmen, ruled by Jun Kai, holds a status comparable to that of Yunzhou

For some reason, Lin Ye was neither angry nor disgusted; he merely frowned, feeling that the little beggar was rude

Lin Ye pointed to the stone bench in the yard and said, "Go sit over there, do not enter my room..."

The little beggar, frightened, turned to run, while Gao Gong was accustomed to bullying such people and chased after him to deliver a kick

Thus, Lin Ye led a small beggar and a little dog back to their residence

Lin Ye took a step forward, and the little beggar sat on the back of Lin Ye's foot, swaying a step further ahead.

The little beggar shook his head: "I am not afraid of eating, I am afraid of you..."

Lin Ye slowly exhaled, looking at that small hand, wondering how it could be so dirty

Gao Gong shook his head as if it were a rattle drum: "No, absolutely not! We are all people of the underworld, and people of the underworld do not engage in such matters"

At the moment he turned around, Gao Gong saw a small beggar rummaging through a trash bin not far away, and immediately shouted.

After speaking, he casually threw out the nearly all-black steamed buns. In the distance, two wild dogs came running over, sniffed the buns, but did not eat them and walked away

Lin Ye looked into those eyes and said earnestly: "I am not lying."

Lin Ye: "Have you not bullied anyone?"

The little beggar seemed to ponder for a moment, and ultimately trust triumphed over doubt. He climbed down from Lin Ye's back, extended his dirty little hand towards Lin Ye, still remaining silent, and continued to gaze at Lin Ye with those big eyes.

The little beggar swiftly burrowed into a pile of firewood by the roadside, his hands digging rapidly. Moments later, he emerged from the pile holding a small dog that was just as dirty as he was. The dog appeared to be only two or three months old and seemed to be starved, looking quite listless.

Lin Ye frowned

The shops lined both sides of the street, and although the sky had not yet darkened, the lanterns at the entrances of each store had already been lit, making the long street dazzling like a galaxy of stars

However, he felt no objection to the little beggar; if the little beggar were to roll onto his bed with that stray dog, he would probably not even want the bedding anymore

Thus, the beggars in this city are truly terrified to the core of individuals like Gao Gong and his companions

He wrapped a bun in a handkerchief and handed it to the little beggar, saying, "Here, eat."

He took out a pure white handkerchief and handed it to the little beggar, saying, "Use this to wrap your food"

As soon as his thoughts arrived here, he suddenly let out a shout and threw the little black dog out.

Today, I do not know how I have been possessed by some strange influence; not only has my obsessive cleanliness not manifested, but I also find myself continually moved by compassion

Lin Ye roughly understood that the people in this shop had once frightened this little beggar

After Lin Ye finished speaking, she picked up the little black dog and placed it into the small wooden barrel. The little black dog, having eaten its fill, regained some strength and struggled desperately.

Such trivial matters certainly do not require those in official robes to personally intervene; it is likely sufficient to have subordinates instruct minor figures like Gao Gong to handle them

The little beggar let out a sound of agreement, took a big bite, and half of the bun went into his mouth. As expected, he choked on it with just one bite

You soak for a while first, I will wash the dog, and then I will wash you later

Lin Ye was subduing the little black dog while looking up at the small beggar, his mind still pondering that this little brat was probably as black as this little dog.

Just as he extended his leg, Lin Ye kicked him in the backside, sending Gao Gong flying like a rocket.

The person was remarkably dirty, exuding a foul odor, and their face was so obscured that it was impossible to discern their skin color. Their hair was a chaotic mess, worse than a bird's nest, yet they possessed a pair of clear and clean large eyes, beautiful enough to seem as if the cosmos resided within their pupils

Before long, Lin Ye had boiled the water, tested its temperature, and poured it into two wooden tubs, one large and one small; the large one was for soaking people, while the small one was for soaking dogs

Lin Ye has always felt that she is not a warm-hearted person and does not have excessive thoughts about others, whether they are lovable or pitiful

Lin Ye reached out and pinched the steamed bun, saying, "Don't eat that, I bought you some buns."

Lin Ye walked while thinking about what to buy today to cook at home. Although his body ached all over, he truly could not get used to the food outside.

After Lin Ye handed the kettle to the little beggar, he was about to leave. Just as he took a step, he felt a weight at his feet, and when he looked down, the little beggar had once again wrapped his arms around his leg

It was bullied by the big dog on the street and dared not come out to look for food, probably starving to death. I rummaged through many trash bins and only found half a steamed bun. I intended to eat half and leave the other half for it

Lin Ye muttered to himself: "It would be fine to have you stay as a book boy."

This little dog is so dirty that its original color cannot be discerned, lying in the arms of the little beggar and softly whimpering, using its limited strength to show affection to the little beggar

Lin Ye felt that he had a problem; it was one thing that this little beggar did not trigger his obsessive-compulsive tendencies, but it was quite another that this little dog also did not provoke his cleanliness issues

Lin Ye spoke a few words and was about to step away, when the little beggar released the corner of his garment but immediately wrapped his arms around his leg, turning his body in the process and sitting down on the top of Lin Ye's foot.

Therefore, he is very aware that he should not act this way; if he were to die, this little beggar would once again be left to wander the streets

Gao Gong smiled as he ran in front of Lin Ye: "We are here to inspect and see which household dares to litter."

The National Religion's Shangyang Palace also has a branch within Junkaicheng, where the deputy headmaster and three directors are stationed year-round

Then wait for me, I will go buy it

Gao Gong quickly explained: "It is all hypothetical, merely a hypothesis. The neighbors are all very reasonable and easy to talk to..."

He has obsessive cleanliness

Gao Gong and the others also saw Lin Ye. The four of them instinctively turned to hide, but upon seeing Lin Ye wave, they dared not refuse to approach.

You hurry up and get lost

Lin Ye felt another pang in her heart

Lin Ye asked: "How is the collection of money going?"

In the next moment, Lin Ye grasped the little beggar's pants and pulled him back with a strong tug.

The nine major cities of the Northern Territory, with Yunzhou ranking first, is also the only major city with this status within the Northern Territory, while the other five are all located in the south

I will not hit you, you may leave.

Lin Ye helplessly said: "Let go of me, and I will take you to buy something to eat"

Lin Ye suddenly remembered that she had kicked Gao Gong once before, and this little beggar probably thought that he could protect her

He pointed to his own foot, signaling for the little beggar to come down. The little beggar shook his head, but Lin Ye extended his hand, and the little beggar suddenly jumped up, grabbing Lin Ye's finger tightly.

The little beggar shook his head this time

As he was walking, he saw Gao Gong and others approaching. Lin Ye recalled how Yan Xi Niu had been so ruthless towards him, all because of Gao Gong and the others, so he waved at them.

I will go boil water for both of you, and you both need to wash up.

Lin Ye fell silent for a moment and then said, "I will buy you some food before you leave"

The little beggar could not be discerned in terms of specific age, standing below Lin Ye's chest, and should be no more than ten years old

Lin Ye turned to leave, but suddenly felt his clothes tighten. Looking down, he saw that the little beggar had grabbed the corner of his garment with his dirty hands

Holding tightly, she raised her head to look at him, her eyes sparkling with tears.

After Lin Ye exited the medical hall, the sky had not yet darkened, and the streets of Yunzhou City were becoming increasingly crowded. This was the time of day when the city was at its most bustling and lively.

Lin Yemei frowned

Among the three sacred sites of the Great Jade Jianghu, two are located within Junkaicheng: one is Xisheng Temple, and the other is Yuxin Temple

"You little brat, what the hell are you translating? Bringing it outside and dirtying the street, I'll slap you with my big mouth!"

Within the Great Jade, there are only six major cities that hold equal status to provincial capitals. In other words, the city lord of Yunzhou City holds a position equivalent to that of the governors of various provinces

What he is about to undertake is immense and perilous, one might say it is a matter of nine deaths and one life, or perhaps ten deaths with no chance of survival

The little beggar opened his mouth to smile, bringing the half of the dirty bun held in his other hand to his mouth

Lin Ye softly said, "Go in and buy some buns." The little beggar stood there waiting for him, looking down at his hands as if he recalled something. He turned and went to a nearby place with dirty water to wash up, scrubbing his small hands vigorously

Gao Gongzheng was taken aback: "Are you suggesting that I go to your house for dinner?"

The way he spoke seemed as if he lacked confidence, and after finishing, he felt even more regretful

The lord of Yunzhou City most dislikes seeing beggars and similar individuals within the city. Whenever he goes out, his subordinates will always clean the streets in advance.

Thus, Lin Ye brought a little beggar home

The little beggar must have let down his guard, as he began to speak more freely, placing the bun near the puppy's mouth, which immediately started to struggle, clearly anxious.

Gao Gong exclaimed in surprise and then fell to the ground, not daring to make a sound as he got up. He gave Lin Ye an awkward smile and then waved his hand, leading the others to run away.

that's all

At that moment, a sudden exclamation from Gao Gong was heard: "Which bastard threw this garbage?! Are you looking to die?!"

Lin Ye only glanced at him, and Gao Gong quickly said: "Understood, understood, we will go buy it right away"

The little beggar did not respond, nor did he nod; he simply looked up with his head raised, gazing at him with those extremely clear big eyes.

After walking for about more than a mile, the little beggar suddenly let go of his hand and ran out, leaving Lin Ye momentarily stunned

Arriving at the entrance of the bun shop, Lin Ye held the little beggar's hand and was about to enter, but the little beggar kept retreating, seemingly refusing to go in at all.

Young Master

As one of the nine major cities in the northern region of the Great Jade Empire, Yunzhou City holds an exceptionally transcendent status

Gao Gongdao: "With our abilities, those guys wouldn't dare to refuse to pay, right? I... no, I mean I block the door and scold them, and they don't even dare to retort. If they still don't pay, I'll have someone dump a cart full of dung soup at their door, and let's see if they can still do business."

His gaze turned to Lin Ye's hands, perhaps because her hands were exceptionally clean and beautiful

At its core, it is simply because there is a Beiye Wangfu in this Yunzhou city

Then he reached out and took the little beggar's hand, moving forward. After taking another glance, he sighed; the small hand was indeed very dirty

The little beggar was startled by him, turning around to timidly glance back, holding in his hand a half-eaten, dirty bun that he had just rummaged out.

You eat by yourself

Lin Ye picked up the steamed bun and placed it in the trash bin. When he looked again, Gao Gong and the other three had already run far away

These rascals also assist the authorities in their daily tasks, one of which is to clear the beggars from the streets

Perhaps it is the significant influence of his mother-in-law that ultimately makes it difficult for him to be ruthless

The water is also not clean

Taking another breath, Lin Ye turned around, only to find herself panting heavily, which startled him so much just because... the little beggar was actually a girl

Gao Gong walked forward while cursing; in the past, upon seeing such a little beggar, he would have kicked him away long ago

When Lin Ye stepped out, she happened to see it, and her heart ached slightly

Lin Ye responded with a sound: "Go buy some meat and vegetables. In a little while, you all will come home with me for dinner. Buy enough for five people... Buy enough for six people."
