In the twelfth lunar month of that year, it snowed heavily for several days in Dayong City, making it difficult for vehicles and horses to travel, and all the Wase restaurants were closed and closed for business.
This was a hard time for the Su Mutian brothers and sisters, because not only were these places closed for business, but ordinary people also closed their doors to avoid the severe cold at home, leaving Su Mutian without food.
Brother and sister Su Mutian were shivering in the wind and snow, so they could only step one foot deep and one foot shallow towards Fengyue Street in the city.
There are brothels and brothels everywhere, which are extremely lively on weekdays, with singing and dancing all the time.
Even in such bad weather, the place is rarely closed.
It's just that Su Mutian seldom goes there because there are many caretakers and nursing homes in those places.
In order to prevent the stench of beggars from affecting the guests who come to have fun, they have a surprisingly consistent attitude towards beggars. Don't expect to beg for food, but eating a meal with sticks is a common thing.
But at this time, Su Mutian had no choice. Her sister had been hungry for several days, and since she had no clothes to keep out the cold, her body was always cold. If she didn't have anything to eat, she would most likely starve to death.
When Su Mutian carried Su Muxin on his back and braved the howling cold wind, and rushed to Fengyue Street, he saw that despite the heavy wind and snow, there were still many people walking to have fun.
"Xin'er, you wait here for brother, I'll go get some food."
Su Mutian found an alley sheltered from the wind, put Su Muxin down under the eaves, and said tremblingly.
"Well, brother, brother, come back quickly."
Su Muxin curled up, her little face turned pale from the cold, and her lips turned purple, looking very pitiful.
Su Mutian nodded heavily and was about to turn around and leave, but he didn't expect that the courtyard door behind them suddenly opened.
A woman in linen clothes, who looked to be in her forties or fifty, glanced at the Su Mutian brothers in surprise. She recognized the identities of the two brothers and sisters with just one glance.
"Child, it's snowing so heavily, come in and take shelter from the wind and snow."
Su Mutian and Su Muxin were both slightly startled. They had always been street beggars. They basically treated them with a blank stare and avoided them. Some even beat and scolded them and drove them away. This was the first time that someone was kind-hearted.
The earth will receive them.
Seeing the kind-hearted look on the old woman's face, Su Mutian saw that his sister's body was about to be unable to support her. He hesitated for a moment and then said with great gratitude, "Thank you, thank you!"
Su Mutian immediately helped Su Muxin into the backyard. As soon as he entered, he found that it was surprisingly large, with five or six brightly lit attics in front.
From there came bursts of melodious sounds, as well as the laughter of men and women.
Su Mutian instantly understood that this should be the backyard of a brothel.
The old woman led the way and took the two of them into a woodshed. She took out a quilt and put it on them without paying attention to how dirty the Su Mutian brother and sister were.
"Hurry up and cover it, I'll get you some food."
The old woman quickly brought two bowls of rice porridge and handed them to the brother and sister respectively.
"Mother-in-law, thank you!"
"thank you!"
The eyes of Su Mutian brother and sister were full of gratitude. They were really touched at this time because no one had ever been so kind to them.
Su Mutian got the rice porridge and did not eat it all at once. He just took a small sip first and then looked at Su Muxin.
When he saw his sister drinking a bowl of porridge quickly, Su Mutian poured more than half of the porridge in his own bowl over, "Xin'er, eat more."
"Brother, Xin'er is full! I don't want it!"
Su Muxin hurriedly shook her head and poured back her bowl of porridge.
Su Mutian pushed Su Muxin's hand away and said firmly, "I listened to my brother and drank it all!"
The old woman looked at the two brothers and sister, and suddenly laughed, "Don't push it, there is a big pot in the kitchen, which can feed you. The little guy is about to drink, give me the bowl, and I will go and feed you."
You are prosperous."
Su Mutian was even more moved when he heard this, and his eyes turned red, "Mother-in-law, you are such a good person, thank you so much!"
The old woman smiled and waved her hand, took the bowl and went to the kitchen, and soon came in with two full bowls of porridge.
When Su Mutian and Su Muxin finished eating, the old woman didn't care that they were shouting that they were full, and went to bring two more bowls of porridge.
"Thank you, mother-in-law, we are really full this time."
A kind smile appeared on the old woman's face, "As long as you're full, I just boiled hot water and took a hot bath to warm you up."
At this time, Su Mutian began to feel that something was wrong, but the old woman's extremely kind smile made him feel caring for the first time, making him instinctively relax his vigilance.
Not long after, the old woman took Su Muxin out of the hot bath and changed into clean clothes.
The old woman looked at Su Muxin who was freshly dressed, her eyes suddenly lit up, and the smile on her face couldn't stop, "I knew I was right, she is indeed a beauty, and she is naturally charming. She will be a powerful figure in the future.
The alluring beauty."
Su Mutian suddenly felt a chill in his heart, because the kind look on the old woman's face disappeared, replaced by greed.
Su Mutian once again thought of this place as a brothel and what the old woman had just said, and he immediately came to his senses.
Su Mutian felt inexplicably frightened. He rushed forward, grabbed Su Muxin's hand, and rushed outside.
But the old woman smiled and did not stop them, letting them rush out.
As soon as Su Mutian opened the door of the woodshed, a horse-faced man appeared outside with several nursing staff.
Seeing Su Mutian appear, he raised his foot and kicked him.
This kick was extremely fierce and hit Su Mutian directly in the stomach. He screamed and rolled to the ground.
"Fuck your grandma! Where do you want to go, you little beggar?"
The horse-faced man raised his foot and kicked Su Mutian several times, causing the pain to make him curl up like a shrimp and scream in agony.
Seeing this scene, Su Muxin turned pale with fright. She cried and rushed forward. She hugged the horse's legs and yelled, "Don't hit my brother, don't hit my brother!"
The horse-faced man became impatient with being hugged, so he slapped Su Muxin so hard that she fell into the snow outside the door.
It was okay for Su Mutian to be beaten, but when he saw Su Muxin being knocked to the ground, he suddenly became furious and his eyes became blood red.
He didn't know where the courage came from, he jumped up desperately, rushed forward and bit the horse-faced man's ear.
"Ah!! You bastard! I will kill you, kill you!!"
The horse-faced man screamed, suddenly tore Su Mutian off his body, and fell heavily to the ground.
His face was almost distorted with anger and pain, because half of his ear was bitten off by Su Mutian.
