Chapter 16 The Beggar's Nest

Chapter 16 Beggars Den

When the waiter was almost impatient waiting at the door, the little beggar finally finished cleaning himself up and came out.

The waiter was stunned on the spot. He didn't expect that a sloppy little beggar would be so handsome and pleasant after washing up.

The waiter was stunned for a moment, then coughed and said, "Let's go!"

The little beggar looked sloppy, but after washing himself and putting on clean clothes, he looked really good.

In the private room, Ye Qingcheng was drooling at the various delicacies.

"Quail crystal dumplings, braised squab, steamed duck with lotus, beggar's chicken, Binuo lotus root, and this Dongpo pork... Oh my god, they are all my favorites! This, this, this... not bad, not bad!" Ye Qingcheng

He was already lying on the table.

The exquisite presentation is appetizing to look at, and with the milk and peanut dew, the peach blossom cake is as delicate as a peach blossom.

Just when Ye Qingcheng was about to drool, the waiter knocked on the door.

"Come in..." Ye Qingcheng raised his head from the table with difficulty and looked at the door.

I saw the waiter coming in with a pretty, cute, and clean little girl. The little girl looked to be no more than ten years old. She was too thin to tell her true age.

"Come on, come on! Sit down quickly, I'm going to starve to death waiting for you!" As soon as Ye Qingcheng saw the little beggar, he immediately rushed over and pulled him over to sit down, and then ran back to his seat.

The little beggar sat down and just looked at her. The waiter was also stunned there with no intention of moving.

"Eat! Can you feel full just by looking at me? Hurry up and eat!" Ye Qingcheng had no choice but to greet the little beggar again.

"Thank you, Miss, for inviting me to dinner!" The little beggar's name is Ugly Girl, but she doesn't look ugly at all.

"You're welcome! Hurry up and eat!" Ye Qingcheng waved his hand generously. He couldn't bear it any longer. He aimed at the delicious food and started to bite it with his paws.

Seeing how delicious Ye Qingcheng's food was, the ugly girl also carefully picked up her chopsticks and started eating.

She has been a little beggar without a father or mother since she was a child, living in a broken temple with many beggars. She has never eaten such clean and delicious food. The first time she ate it, she almost forgot who she was.

After the two of them were in trouble, there were not many delicacies left on the table.

After eating and drinking, Ye Qingcheng stroked her bulging belly with satisfaction and looked at the ugly girl with a smile.

"Um...I...can...can I take the rest away?" The ugly girl was a little uncomfortable being stared at, and she suddenly stammered.

"Do you have any companions?" Ye Qingcheng roughly understood that beggars might just stay together in groups to keep warm.

"...Yes..." The ugly girl has been begging since she was a child and is very good at reading people's faces. This fairy sister invited her to such a delicious meal. She must be a good person and will not embarrass her, so she boldly said it.

"No!" Ye Qingcheng shook his head. As soon as the ugly girl lowered her head with a sad expression, Ye Qingcheng shouted to the waiter.

"Miss, our shopkeeper has said that your table is our shopkeeper's expense! You don't have to pay the bill!" When the waiter heard that this aunt was calling someone, he hurried in and then hurriedly said that she didn't need to pay the bill and ate.

You can leave when you're done.

"Stop it! No matter who your boss is, or who the master behind you is, or what the purpose is, I can still afford this meal by myself! Hurry down and prepare some more food for me to eat.

!I want to take it away! Also! I will pay for the meal together!" Ye Qingcheng waved his hand boldly, not appreciating it at all.

When she brought the beggar in, the shopkeeper looked up to the second floor. She saw it all and pretended not to know, although she still couldn't figure out why Tao Ranju suddenly changed his attitude towards her.

I don’t know who is behind this store and what his intentions are towards her, but she must stay away from here! She will not come here again.

"Okay girl! Then go make arrangements!" The waiter was told. If the girl wants to pay by herself, then don't force it, just meet all the requirements.

Soon, the waiter ran over and said that all the food was ready!

Ye Qingcheng went out to take a look and found that she was not fooled. The food prepared was quite good, so he simply paid the bill.

But what shocked her was that the dozen dishes, including the packaged ones, cost more than one hundred and twenty taels of silver.

She only had a little over 800 taels of silver in her hands now, which meant that if she ate another seven or eight Tao Ranju, she would become a pauper again. This made her instantly come out of the excitement of becoming a rich woman.

No wonder people are afraid that she can't afford it and that she will eat the King's meal.

This is not unreasonable. Putting aside everything else, this Tao Ranju is really expensive. This dish costs about ten taels of silver.

After paying the money and coming out, Ye Qingcheng and the ugly girl held the food boxes in both hands and looked at each other.

"Let's go! I'll take you back!" Ye Qingcheng looked at the sky and saw that it was already past noon. If they didn't go home quickly, their two tiger cubs would starve to death.

"Miss, I can take it back myself!" the ugly girl said a little embarrassedly.

She was afraid that she would tire her fairy sister. It would be tiring to carry the food box to the ruined temple, but it was not a short distance away.

"Stop talking nonsense, where is your home? Send you back quickly, I have two babies waiting for me!" Ye Qingcheng said as she walked. She had seen a rental carriage when she was looking for a restaurant just now.

, she would not be stupid enough to walk over.

I also know that a group of beggars like Ugly Girl must not live close to each other.

"Ah? Husband... Madam, we live in a ruined temple outside the city. It's far away. You'd better go back! What if your child..." The ugly girl began to stutter again.

She looked at the little girl who was at most ten years old, and she didn't look like a lady with two children. But she said that she couldn't continue to call her "Miss" even though she had two children waiting at home.

Ye Qingcheng rolled his eyes upward after hearing the ugly girl's change of words. She had become a mother again, another misunderstanding.

Okay, it's okay! Just rent a carriage and go there! It's too late!" Ye Qingcheng had been running for the carriage and arrived just as he was talking to the ugly girl.

Although she spent more than a hundred taels of silver on a meal and her body ached, the twelve copper coins for a round trip was still not stingy.

The two people got on the carriage, and the ugly girl was groping for a while.

In fact, Ye Qingcheng also wanted to act like an ugly girl, but she was afraid of being cheated, so she had to sit there all the time. Fortunately, the original owner often rode in carriages before she was ten years old, so she was no stranger to it.

The carriage bumped all the way, and when they arrived at the ruined temple outside the city, Ye Qingcheng had already been rocked and fell asleep.

I have been dreaming about my past life, dreaming about many acquaintances, some good and some bad, almost dreaming about my short life in my past life.

"Madam... Madam, wake up! We are here!" The ugly girl was afraid of startling her, so she pushed and called her in a low voice.

At this time, there were many people around the carriage, but they didn't dare to step forward. They just watched from a distance and pointed.

There have been carriages like this before, but the nobles on the carriage didn't know how to get out of the carriage. They asked the servants to get off, pick a few that they liked and take them away. Everyone was discussing, wondering who would have that one this time.

A good life was taken away.
