"Xiaolin?!"
Li Xinyi at the door almost lost her balance. When she reacted, she was ashamed and angry.
What did Xiaolin say?
Xiaolin on the bed took a look and immediately knew that she had made trouble. What she said just now was heard by sister Xinyi.
She quickly stuck out her tongue at Li Beifeng, covered her head with the quilt, and began to play dead.
Li Xinyi walked quickly to the bed and said angrily: "Xiaolin, what are you talking about?!"
Xiaolin covered her head with the quilt and said in a baby voice: "I didn't say anything... Sister, I was wrong..."
The little girl covered her head and started to play dead and act cute, which made Li Xinyi, who was originally angry, feel helpless.
She is like this. Every time she is naughty, she tries to get away with it.
However, Li Xinyi can't be really angry.
He reached out and flicked her head through the quilt, and said unhappily: "If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will punish you!"
At this time, she turned around and looked at Li Beifeng beside her, her face a little unnatural: "Why are you here today?"
"Nothing, I'm free anyway, so I came to see the children..."
Li Beifeng glanced at the things in her hand: "What are you doing?"
"I went out to get medicine for Xiaolin..."
Li Xinyi explained: "By the way, I bought some food for them... You sit down first, I'll go to boil medicine for Xiaolin first!"
"I'll do it!"
Li Beifeng stood up and took the medicine from her hand.
Li Xinyi was a little embarrassed: "This, how can I let you come here?"
Li Beifeng not only didn't care about her stealing his money, but also helped her. She felt that she couldn't bother him anymore...
"It's okay, I'm a doctor, I'm good at this!"
Li Beifeng didn't care so much, took the medicine, and turned to the kitchen.
Li Xinyi was left standing there, watching Li Beifeng leave, her eyes slightly complicated, and she said nothing.
On the bed, Xiaolin secretly lifted the quilt, revealing a little head.
Her face was already a little rosy, and she looked at her sister quietly...
"Sister..."
Li Xinyi turned around and saw Xiaolin's smart eyes blinking.
Xiaolin, who wanted to say something, saw her sister's slightly unfriendly eyes and quickly shut up.
"Xiaolin, if you dare to talk nonsense again, you will see how I deal with you!"
Li Xinyi glared at her unhappily.
"Oh!"
Xiaolin was wronged and nodded weakly.
Li Xinyi breathed a sigh of relief and glanced back at the door.
Her eyes were slightly complicated.
She didn't know what was going on... She was always a little uneasy.
The appearance of Li Beifeng was undoubtedly a good thing for her.
He is a good man!
He helped me without any grudges, and was so warm and easy to talk to... This should be a good thing.
But...
When Li Xinyi thought of the other party's purpose, she was happy but also a little worried.
What exactly is his purpose...
Is it really... me?
This made Li Xinyi panic.
If that's the case, what should I do?
Although, Li Xinyi did think that Li Beifeng was a good person, kind-hearted, and not particularly bad looking.
But, she didn't mean that at all!
But the other party helped me so much and saved these children. Such a great favor... I really need to repay him!
How can I repay him?
Isn't it just a matter of giving myself to him?
But, but...
Li Xinyi was in a dilemma again.
...
Li Beifeng didn't think so much.
His purpose was very simple.
Find a way to get close to this girl, and then take the opportunity to find out about the old eunuch from her.
At the moment, it seems to be going well.
Decocting medicine is a technical job. You can't do it well without some skills.
The kitchen in this courtyard is a little small and a little shabby. The kitchen is filled with the smell of herbs.
In the corner, there are some medicine residues.
Obviously, this girl's decoction skills are not very good, and she has ruined a lot of herbs.
Shaking his head slightly, Li Beifeng began to decoct medicine.
This kind of trivial matter is easy for him.
Controlling the heat and calculating the time, Li Beifeng returned to the yard halfway.
At this time, the children were gathering in the yard to play.
This yard, including Xiaolin, has a total of six children, four girls and two boys.
These children are homeless orphans in Sunset City. These children are not old. The oldest Xiaolin is only ten years old, and the rest are only five or six years old.
They were either abandoned by their parents or separated from their parents. Some of their parents died tragically at the hands of the rebels and were taken in by Li Xinyi.
For these children, this may be their second home!
Although they still live in a precarious situation, not sure if they can have enough food for the next meal. But at least, this is a place to stay, so that they don't have to wander around until they die quietly in the corner of the street one day.
And all this was done by her...
Li Beifeng's eyes fell on Li Xinyi who was playing with the children not far away.
This girl, who was about the same age as him, had an even worse life experience than him.
At least Li Beifeng had a nominal father when she came to this world. Although the old man Li's medical skills were unreliable, he had nothing to say about him.
Until the old man Li died, Li Beifeng, who had no means of making a living, spent several years in misery.
But what about her?
She lost her parents when she was young and grew up as an orphan... It is self-evident how difficult it was.
Judging from her age, she was born at the most chaotic time in Beizhou... Beiqi was destroyed, Beizhou was almost destroyed, various forces were intertwined, there were countless bandits, and the people were living in poverty...
Her parents should have died in the chaos of that year.
And it was not easy for her to survive.
Not only that, she also took in so many children, and tried to raise them so that they would not starve... From this point of view, it is enough to see that she is kind-hearted.
If not, how could she do this?
Thinking of this, Li Beifeng sighed slightly in her heart.
As the history books say, the rise and fall of the world will always be suffered by the people.
Whether it is Dazhao or Northern Qi, in any chaos, it is the ordinary people who will bear it in the end.
In such a situation, the people have no choice.
"Look, birds!"
At this moment, a neat row of birds suddenly flew over the yard.
The children in the yard saw this scene, and several children shouted excitedly.
A row of unknown birds circled in the sky above the yard.
After a heavy snow, these birds that did not fly south also began to hunt.
At this moment, a sound suddenly came from the yard.
"Swish!"
Then, a bird suddenly fell from the sky and fell into the yard.
This scene made the other children present stunned!
What happened?
Li Xinyi under the eaves seemed to realize something, turned around, and saw Li Beifeng standing in the yard not far away, holding a few stones in his hand.
The stone flew out of his hand quickly and hit the bird accurately.
The birds screamed a few times and fell one after another.
The remaining companions seemed to sense the danger and quickly spread their wings and ran away.
The yard was left quiet.
The other children looked at Li Beifeng with idiotic eyes, with admiration in their eyes.
This brother Beifeng... is so awesome!
Li Beifeng saw that everyone's eyes were on him, and immediately waved his hands.
"What are you still standing there for?"
"Hurry up and light the fire, and start the pot!"
