Chapter 210 Sell Your Body to Bury Your Father

The bad luck of the two siblings has not ended yet. (.)

While wandering and begging, the two brothers and sisters suffered a series of inhuman treatment. Half a month ago, Shi Tou's sister finally couldn't hold on and fell ill to the ground.

After asking all the doctors in Ningbo City, an elderly doctor was willing to collect only a few copper coins begged for Shi Tou to visit his sister. The final result of visiting the disease was that he had a cold, but the treatment medicine was too expensive, and at least three taels of silver was required. Even the last copper coins on his body were handed out to the stone. The money had to treat the disease, so he had to return here with his sick sister on his back.

In order to raise enough money for medical treatment, he formed a gang with other partners who were also wandering orphans, specially selected some people who had just arrived in Ningbo Prefecture to steal the money from these people using various methods. Since Zhengliang entered the street market, he has been noticed by their group. The pursuit just now was just a deliberate staged to touch the money from Zhengliang.

"Where are our coins?" After hearing Shi Tou's description, Zhengliang sighed at their experience, but felt strange. Since Liu Le and others had already succeeded, why did Shi Tou just buy a small steamed bun to satisfy his hunger? Zhengliang walked in just now and indeed saw only two brothers and sisters eating steamed buns, and there was only one steamed bun. Adding up the coins on Liu Le and the sailor, you can buy at least dozens of them?

"I took all the money to buy medicine," Shi Tou said with his head down. When he thought of stealing money from his benefactor's subordinates, Shi Tou immediately arrived and was ashamed. Then he told the way out of the money intermittently.

It turned out that the old doctor who had basically treated them for free last time was a kind person. He also knew that these two children had nothing. Although they were limited to their limited wealth and could not use their position to help them, they also came up with a much cheaper herbal prescription to leave for them. However, this prescription only barely sucked the disease to prevent the disease from deteriorating rapidly.

Part of the newly obtained money was distributed to other partners, and part of it was used to buy medicine. The old doctor was also a good person. Every time he decocted the medicine and then handed it over to Shi Tou. This time, Shi Tou had to take care of his sister, so he asked those friends to go to get the medicine.

"Squeak" Just as Zhengliang continued to listen to Shi Tou's crying, the broken door of the yard was pushed open, "Stone. We..."

A boy younger than Shi Tou came in first and was about to speak when he suddenly saw several strangers in the yard, and his voice stopped completely.

"Squeak..." At this time, five or six boys walked out from behind the boy one after another, all of whom were under ten years old.

"No, it's them." Among the boys, some immediately recognized Zhengliang and others, obviously thinking that the victim came to him.

"Ah?" The crowd panicked.

"Don't panic. Take the guys and fight with them." What surprised Zhengliang was that after a brief panic, the boys immediately calmed down and did not escape immediately. Instead, they picked up some waste wood around and prepared to fight with Zhengliang and others.

Zhengliang did not make any moves in the end, but instead looked at the group of children with admiration.

"No, don't." Shi Tou immediately ran over to stop him. Just kidding. Zhengliang is now his master. If these partners rushed over, the fun would be great.

After a while of rumbling, the group of children finally calmed down. However, Shi Tou's partners were still wary of Zhengliang, so they did not come to apologize. Instead, they retreated to the corner of the wall where the little girl was and cautiously alert.

Seeing them being so childish, Zhengliang suddenly wanted to laugh a little.

"Shitou, let's be here today. This adult will find a cart later. Then you can take your sister with him to my place where I live," said Zhengliang. Since they have taken them in, they will naturally not be allowed to stay here anymore.

"Master, they..." Shi Tou pointed to his group of partners, and the meaning was very obvious, just asking them how to deal with it. After all, they had a while of joy and sorrow together, and now they had the opportunity to get out of such a dilemma, but these friends who were together early and night had an uncertain future, so they must be a little reluctant to leave.

Zhengliang smiled and thought to himself, it turns out that the child has not left. It is already rare for your master to take in you. How could he ask your master to continue taking in other people? But well, he was planning to recruit more wandering orphans, and these were the first batch of immigrants.

In fact, Zhengliang misunderstood Shitou this time, and Shitou was just a little reluctant to leave and said something. In fact, he just wanted to stay with these friends for a while.

"Where do they live now?" Zhengliang did misunderstand, so he asked.

"It's in a dilapidated temple on the other side of the alley," Shi Tou said.

"Well, let them stay there for the time being. After the arrangement is made, they can also follow you," said Zhengliang. After all, the space in the inn is limited, and it is impossible to place it if they suddenly take so many children back. If it weren't for the sister who saw Shi Tou, Zhengliang wouldn't have brought Shi Tou back to the inn so quickly.

"Ah? Really?" Shi Tou didn't expect that his friends could follow the adult, and immediately shouted happily.

"Well, you can discuss with your friends later. You must also make a decision and follow me to a very far place in the future," said Zhengliang.

Shi Tou didn't take Zhengliang's words seriously. In his opinion, it was the happiest thing to be able to save his sister and prevent everyone from living a hungry child every day, so even if Zhengliang asked him to go to the mountain of swords and the sea of ​​fire, he would not refuse.

After leaving the residence of the two brothers and sisters of Shi Tou, Zhengliang and others walked to the street market again. They were preparing to temporarily rent a cart to transport Shi Tou's sister.

As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the street market, I saw the exit of the street market. Three floors inside and three floors inside and three floors surrounded a group of people, and even blocked the entrance of the street market.

"What's ahead?" Zhengliang frowned and said.

Wang Hai's sailor was originally a clever person, especially when he received a reward of one or two taels of silver from Zhengliang just now, he was even more careful about Zhengliang's orders at any time and prepared to flatter. When he heard Zhengliang's questions, he immediately volunteered to go and inquire.

In less than half a quarter of an hour, he ran back and reported: "Sir, there is a beautiful woman in front of him who sells herself to bury her father."

"Selling oneself to bury your father?" Zhengliang was a little surprised. (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
