Jade Without Fragrance Chapter 122

   Chapter 122 Entanglement

  The door was slammed and trembled, and it looked like it was about to fall down at any time.

  The older boy pushed hard against the door, and the younger one gathered around A Xing: "Brother A Xing, there are so many people here!"

   "How many?" Ah Xing asked the doorman.

   The doorman didn't look good: "It is estimated that there are thirty or forty people."

  A Xing frowned.

   There were only a few people here two times before, but so many people came today. There are quite a lot of people on their side, but the old and the young, none of them can fight.

   Looking at the door that was slammed into the sky, A Xing felt a little worried, and persuaded Lin Hao sideways: "There are too many of them, you should stay in the room."

  Lin Hao's face was calm: "Since I caught up, it's time to take a look."

   "What if there is a conflict later and they hurt you?"

   Looking at the crumbling gate, Lin Hao said in a light tone, "They didn't come to fight."

A child    asked curiously, "Then what are they here for?"

  Lin looks good at the child who asked questions.

   It was a boy of six or seven years old. Although he was thin and small, he was wearing some large coarse clothes, but he was clean and tidy, and there was no trace of being a beggar at all.

   "It's just disgusting people." Lin Hao rubbed the boy's head and explained.

  A Xing pursed her lips slightly after hearing this, and strode over.

   Several teenagers who arrived at the door looked at him for help when they saw him coming.

   "When I count to three, you immediately pull out the bolts to avoid the sides. Are you listening?"

   Several teenagers nodded.

"one two Three--"

   As Ah Xing shouted "Three", several teenagers quickly ducked to the side. The gate opened suddenly, as if a flood broke down a river bank, and a bunch of people poured in instantly.

   These people were stacked one on top of the other and threw themselves inside the gate like a dog eating shit.

   "Hahaha——" This scene made many children clapp their hands and laugh.

  Axing looked out the door with a blank expression, and saw the beggar who had led the way two times before standing outside the door, half a zhang away from the threshold.

   "What do you want?" Ah Xing bypassed the beggars who were struggling to get up and walked to the lead beggar.

   It was a middle-aged beggar with ragged clothes and cloudy eyes. Faced with A Xing's questioning, he suddenly wiped away tears: "Please let us live in, it will freeze to death outside on such a cold day..."

   When he cried, all the beggars who followed him began to cry.

  Axing was unmoved: "The first time you knocked on the door, I said, we only accept beggars under the age of 12 and over the age of 50, you are not eligible."

   "They are human, aren't we human? Should we freeze to death on the street?"

The middle-aged beggar's words immediately aroused the injustice of his companions, and he said: "That's right, we are also poor homeless people. These days it snows non-stop, and we can't bear it. Since you are doing good deeds. , why can't people do it to the end and give us a way to live!"

  Lin Hao looked at him coldly, and whispered a few words to Baozhu.

   Baozhu nodded, shoved the fire stick into Lin Hao's hand, and slipped out in the chaos.

   Beggar's plea made Ah Xing annoyed.

   Ah Hao is right, these scoundrels dare not do anything, they are just here to disgust people.

   It is not an exaggeration to call these beggars who expressly refuse but still come to harass them as rogues. They are neither ignorant young children nor sickly elderly people. Most of them become beggars because they do not want to work.

   Of course, there are also a few who are forced to, such as Brother A Xing. At first living on the streets, Ah Xing tried to find a job to support his younger brother, but found that his good looks had become their brother's biggest misfortune at this time. Not to mention the people who hit him with crooked ideas in a row, his brother was targeted by the kidnappers because he was not accompanied, and he tried his best to get it back. In desperation, A Xing smeared the faces of himself and his younger brother and became a beggar, no matter good or bad, at least they will be together.

   At that time, his biggest wish was that his younger brother would grow up quickly so that they would be able to work hard for a living.

   Because of this, A Xing looks down on people who have hands and feet but don't want to do things.

   "You mean if you freeze to death, blame my family for not giving you a way to live?"

   The middle-aged beggar begged with a mournful face: "It's really not good, just give us a corner of the roof to protect us from the wind and rain."

   Ah Xing can't understand better than that, these pitiful words are just a means for these beggars to intimidate people.

   "What kind of snow can a corner of the roof cover?" A Xing sneered at the corner of his mouth, "Isn't there a fire house for beggars, and it only takes a penny to stay a night. You can't beg for a penny a day?"

   "Oh, we are beggars, and we are not workers. How can we ask for money?" The middle-aged beggar explained in grievance.

  Axing unceremoniously exposed: "It's not that there are snowstorms every day, save the money you get when the weather is warm, or you will have the money to pay for the fire house."

  The beggars who have been begging for money get together to drink and eat meat, and enjoy it in time. He sees this scene a lot.

   The middle-aged beggar was stagnant, how could this kid know so clearly?

   Naturally, he didn't recognize that the young boy who looked like a noble man in front of him was one of them.

   "Young master, how do you know the hardships of our beggars? Occasionally begging for a few more coins. After a sickness, it will be gone. How can there be extra money to live in the fire house."

  Axing didn't want to entangle with these rogues, and said coldly: "Then you can go to someone else's house and ask if you are willing to give you a corner of the roof to protect you from the wind and rain."

   Seeing Ah Xing turn around, the middle-aged beggar suddenly knelt down and hugged his legs: "Young master, have pity on us, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda!"

   With his kneeling, more beggars knelt down and begged.

   Ah Xing's face darkened, resisting the urge to kick people.

   At this time, a team of officers and soldiers came and asked, "What's the matter?"

   Whether it was A Xing, the beggar who didn't go away, and the people watching the fun, they were all stunned.

Doesn't the   official appear only when things are over?

  The crowd watched this team of officers approaching in a daze, and heard the lead officer ask, "Which newspaper officer?"

  Lin Hao stood up and said calmly, "It's me."

  Axing had a strange look on his face.

  Ah, it's easy to solve the trouble... Is it so direct?

   The middle-aged beggar is a scoundrel, not as cramped as ordinary people when they see the government, but rather well aware of the benefits of making the first move. He immediately changed his kneeling direction and cried, "Master, we didn't do anything bad! The owner of this house has taken in a lot of beggars, and we are here to ask the good people to give us a way to survive."

   Kneeling and begging for help is not against the law, so what if the official came? The most is to disperse them. Disperse now, come back tomorrow to see who can survive.

  Other beggars said: "Yeah, in such a cold day, we're going to freeze to death, woo woo..."

   As the middle-aged beggar expected, the leading official just waved his hand: "It's gone, it's gone, what's it like to gather in front of someone's door!"

   The beggar who was kneeling on the ground stood up and was about to stand up.

   "Wait, don't let go."

   Everyone looked at the girl who spoke up.

  Lin Hao looked at the leading officer in shock: "Master, they force their way into the house, don't you care?"
