"If you don't want to ask for money, get out of here and don't block my way!" Several beggars came over from the other side and pushed Erya and her daughter aside.

Then they also crowded forward and took out broken bowls to ask for money...

Erya Niang quickly carried Erya to the eaves of a nearby shop, leaned down and held Erya in her arms, gently stroking Erya's head.

In the cold wind, the woman's face turned pale from the cold, but Erya's face was red from crying.

The surroundings were so noisy that Erya's cries were instantly drowned out by the noise. After paying out the rewards, the 'big shot' in the carriage, as if he had accomplished a great meritorious deed, sat in the carriage and left surrounded by the servants.

.

And the beggars here are also looking for the next target with the few coins they have.

No one would pay attention to Erya crying on the roadside, and no one would lend a helping hand to the mother and daughter.

They are all poor people struggling in the mud at the bottom. Their tails cannot cover their butts. If they want to survive, they can only abandon the best and brightest part of human nature and look at it with indifference.

this world.

"Let's go and take a look." Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang said.

Luo Fengtang nodded, restarted the carriage and walked toward the intersection.

Hearing the sound of the carriage's wheels coming towards them, they had just finished fighting for begging. The beggars who were enjoying the fruits of victory suddenly brightened up when they saw the approaching carriage.

If you can ride in a carriage, you must be rich.

Except for a driver, there were no servants around to block it. It seemed like this wave was getting started.

Each of these beggars had shining eyes, and they all hurriedly emerged from every corner like cats smelling fish, and then swarmed towards Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang's carriage.

This made Yang Ruoqing, who was sitting in the carriage, feel a sudden chill on her back.

This momentum... is like a tiger descending from the mountain, a hungry tiger pounces on food!

If these people were all old, weak, sick and disabled, it would still be acceptable.

However, most of the beggars rushing towards them were strong men with sound limbs and able to move freely. They pushed women and children with great strength and fierceness on their faces.

This reminded Yang Ruoqing of Wang Xiaoliu and Fatty Zhao whom she met at the county night market years ago.

One works as a waiter in a rice store, and the other works hard at the dock to help people unload goods. No matter how much money they earn, at least Wang Xiaoliu and Fatty Zhao can stand up like men and support their families.

And what about these men in front of me? They are tall and strong, with good hands and feet, but they come to be beggars and grab three melons and two dates with the old, weak, sick and disabled. It is really shameful!

Seeing that this group of people was about to rush in front of the carriage and surround them, the horses began to feel frightened. At this moment, Luo Fengtang suddenly stopped the carriage and swept his eyes across the beggars in front of him.

Yang Ruoqing sat in the back and could only see Luo Fengtang's cold back, but not his eyes.

However, she could clearly feel the cold air and murderous aura released from his body at this moment.

She couldn't help but hold her breath, a little shocked.

But the beggars stopped one after another.

They suddenly didn't dare to step forward, as if the front of the carriage was covered by an invisible and intangible air-conditioning cover. They didn't dare to step forward, but they were unwilling to do so, so they pushed others around them to step forward first.

"Those who disturb you, die!"

Luo Fengtang directly showed the dagger in his boots.

Only in the military camp, he would wear armor and sword. At home, he usually wore home clothes made by Yang Ruoqing.

In his words, it is comfortable, irons well and is full of love from his wife when worn on his body.

But due to years of habit, I always carry a dagger for self-defense.

This dagger has been on the battlefield with him and killed enemies.

As soon as the dagger came out, the murderous aura immediately frightened the beggars.

They were so frightened that they quickly fled in all directions, and some hurriedly hid under the eaves and corners of the houses, watching from a distance.

In the blink of an eye, there was no one around the carriage.

Luo Fengtang took back the dagger, got out of the carriage, and then personally opened the carriage curtain for Yang Ruoqing.

Yang Ruoqing smiled at him: "You scared these beggars now. The way they looked at you earlier was like looking at a murderer. They were all terrified."

Luo Fengtang also smiled, "Yes, I did kill people, but I killed people who deserved to be killed."

Yang Ruoqing curled her lips, "My Tang Yazi is so mighty and domineering!"

Is this... considered a compliment? Luo Fengtang raised his hand and scratched his head, feeling speechless.

Yang Ruoqing had already supported his arm, jumped slightly from the carriage, and landed firmly on the ground.

"Just wait for me here. I'll go over and say hello to the mother and daughter." Yang Ruoqing said.

Luo Fengtang nodded and watched Yang Ruoqing walk towards the intersection ahead.

At the intersection ahead, Erya stood there raising her hands and rubbing her eyes, still sobbing.

Erya Niang stood in front of Erya, coaxing her softly. Because her back was facing Yang Ruoqing, the mother and daughter did not know what had just happened.

Until she heard footsteps behind her, and then someone tapped her shoulder lightly, Erya Niang turned around and saw Yang Ruoqing standing behind her, and was stunned for a moment.

Looks so familiar, I’ve seen it somewhere before, but suddenly I can’t remember it!

Erya reacted quickly. Looking at Yang Ruoqing, she exclaimed in surprise: "Good-hearted Bodhisattva Empress!"

Erya Niang suddenly came to her senses, yes, yes, it was the kind-hearted girl yesterday who gave them a plush blanket and two packs of snacks.

"Look at my memory, I didn't recognize the noble man for a moment!" Er Ya Niang said, quickly taking a step back, pretending to kneel down.

Yang Ruoqing stretched out her hand to support the woman and said, "Sister-in-law, there's no need to be so polite. Let's stand and talk."

The woman stood politely. At this time, she also saw Luo Fengtang standing next to the carriage.

Luo Fengtang had a stern look on his face, and his eyes were even colder and deeper. The woman felt an inexplicable chill on her body, so she cautiously smiled and quickly looked away.

"Sister, where are you two going?" the woman asked proactively.

Because she saw Yang Ruoqing leaning over to talk to Erya, with a friendly smile on her face, she seemed to like children very much, and the woman relaxed a little.

Hearing the woman's question, Yang Ruoqing raised her eyes, looked at her, and said, "My husband and I are doing some errands from Xujiacun, and we are going back to our own village today."

"Oh, that's right!" The woman nodded in understanding.
