Why do children on the street beg? What is the story behind them?

Although Zhang Kun was confused, he had no intention of investigating in detail.

Now he just wants to settle down and avoid trouble without causing trouble.

When he rescued several children at the incense-burning private house that day, he remembered clearly that a three- or four-year-old girl and a boy whose hands were broken each gave him a little dragon energy.

As for the seven or eight-year-old boy with broken legs, the light in his eyes was a bit hard to understand, and seemed to contain a trace of hatred.

Then, one thing more is worse than one thing less.

Thinking this way, Zhang Kun felt a little more wary.

After standing at the entrance of the alley for a while, I found that there was no movement, so I took Li Xiaowan to look for a house.

"Brother, this house is still 80% new. You don't need to buy any furniture again. All daily necessities are complete. Even a family of five can live comfortably..."

A middle-aged man with a shrewd face and a smile like a chrysanthemum introduced the house in a eloquent manner, describing the house as if it were a flower.

This is the fifth house Zhang Kun has found.

The other houses are either dilapidated and damp, or they are far away from Yuanshun Escort Agency...

Of course, the inappropriate price is also a reason.

“The price is a bit expensive.”

Li Xiaowan interjected from the side.

"Hey, my eldest lady, you two are obviously from wealthy families. Why do you need to care about these three melons and two dates? What are the foreign adults talking about recently? The quality of life. Well, we pursue

The most important thing is the quality of life, and the most important thing is to live comfortably.

Besides, ten taels of silver a year is really not expensive. Where is the safest place in the Imperial City? It must be next to Yuanshun Escort Agency and Huiyou Escort Agency.

Escorts come and go, there will definitely be no thieves so blind as to commit crimes here?

Look, I'm not saying there are thieves here... Now the old Buddha is ruling the country, the emperor is wise and powerful, the seas and rivers are clear, and everything is peaceful.

This is the best place in the capital, and there is no chance of a thief breaking into the house. However, everything must be taken precautions against, and it is not a good idea to encounter petty thieves. In this case, the property here will be very valuable."

"Four taels, rent for half a year, it's okay, but if it doesn't work, I'll pull it down."

Zhang Kun looked at the house. There were two bedrooms and one living room, and there was a small yard at the back.

Although it is not a shophouse on the street, it is still very convenient for living and practicing martial arts. The most important thing is that it is clean and tidy.

The previous owner seemed to be a tidy person, which is good.

"Okay, let's just make friends, but you have to pay half the year's rent at once.

You two don't know that the market price of houses here is now bullish. Last month, someone offered this amount, but the owner refused to sell."

Yaren muttered and stretched out two fingers, making people feel as if he had suffered a big loss.

However, nagging is nagging, and he does things very efficiently.

Immediately, the documents were taken out, the money was handed over, and both parties signed the deposit.

The house is considered habitable.

The reason for renting for half a year is because the owner of the property here is not in the capital, so it is difficult to collect rent, and he is impatient to calculate from month to month.

However, Yaren is right about one thing. The furniture here is really complete, including tables, chairs, benches, beds, pots and pans. The neighbors seem to be kind-hearted people, and they just came over to say hello.

"Cousin...cousin, will we have a family in the future?"

Li Xiaowan walked around several rooms with tears in her eyes.

"Yes, I have a family."

Zhang Kun said with a smile.

Chinese people are like this. No matter where they go, they are not used to wandering. They have a place to live and feel at home.

Rent a house and have a settled life in no time.

Especially, the little girl who has just experienced the loss of her family and begged to survive...

This sudden feeling of being able to rely on and settle down obviously had a huge impact on her soul.

Soon, Li Xiaowan found a broom, filled the room with water, and tidied the room clumsily.

Sweeping the floor and wiping the table with such seriousness, it seems like you have to spend your whole life.

Zhang Kun was shocked when he saw it, and he also took out a rag and prepared to wipe the window sill.

Seeing the little girl busy alone, he felt a little unhappy.

"I'll do it."

Li Xiaowan quickly walked up and grabbed the rag.

"It's better for the two of you to work together. Besides, we have to cut some meat, buy some side dishes, and prepare to cook later."

"If the old men don't want to do this, I'll do it."

The little girl pursed her lips tightly and her attitude was very firm.

"Also, I know how to cook. I watched Aunt Gu cook it before, so I learned a bit. I also cooked a few tricks for my dad, and he praised me."

As she spoke, her eye circles turned red again.

"Okay, I'll leave everything at home to you from now on."

Zhang Kun sighed and said nothing more.

He turned around and left the house, went not far from the next door, and bought two new sets of bedding and toiletries. He also brought some vegetables back and gave Li Xiaowan a few taels of silver.

Needless to say, she will take care of the rest of her life.

After cleaning the house, Li Xiaowan started preparing dinner without resting.

Perhaps she became bolder after discovering the "truth" that although Zhang Kun was fierce towards his enemies, he was actually very soft at heart.

When we get along, we don't feel so alienated.

"Cousin, wait tomorrow, you go to the escort agency to do some work, and I will go out to find a job.

When I was buying medicine that day, I saw that Anrentang was recruiting apprentices. It seemed that his medicine-preparing clerk had returned home due to family matters and was short of manpower."

"Why do you think of going to work? We don't lack the money. Although I can't be an escort for the time being, it will only happen sooner or later." Zhang Kun frowned slightly.

"No, cousin, don't you want to practice boxing? Since ancient times, the poor were poor in culture and rich in martial arts. The daily combination of meat and vegetables, especially all kinds of meat, is a huge expense, and this cannot be omitted."

Li Xiaowan said clearly: "The time to spend money hasn't come yet... I'm not really worried about food. When you went to sign for a room, I heard some people from the escort agency talking outside.

The reason why those escorts joined Yuanshun was not only because they were given enough money, but there was another reason.

Yuanshun Escort provides a medicine called Longhu Zhuangyuan Decoction, which is very beneficial to strengthening muscles and bones, and warming and nourishing the internal organs."

"You mean, they have their own medicine?"

Speaking of this, Zhang Kun remembered that in later generations, martial arts practitioners would often say that practicing martial arts too hard would often cause serious harm to the body.

Generally, when you reach your forties, you will start to suffer from various ailments.

As you get older, you are often no longer able to fight, and you have to rely on medicine to support yourself all day long.

Even so, they often do not live to the end of their lives, and their bodies age more easily than ordinary people.

This applies not only to martial arts practitioners, but also to athletes.

Of course, Zhang Kun has also heard a rumor that internal martial arts is less harmful to the body. Although it is difficult to get started, it has a health-preserving effect after practicing it. Is it true or not?

Even if it is true, according to common sense, there should be a unique medicine. This is the root of the inheritance.

‘No wonder, there are some skills that you don’t even worry about outsiders learning.

Not only does he have his own boxing skills and breathing techniques, but he also has the supporting body-tonifying medicinal soups, so that he can become famous.
