HCB Chapter 11 Meeting the Homeless Brother and Sister
Chapter 11 Meeting the Homeless Brother and Sister
Bai Mengran couldn't bear to see such pitiful children. She remembered that she had some steamed buns in her bag, so she quickly took them out and gave them to them.
"Here you go, there's a meat bun, a custard bun, and a vegetable bun. Grab them and eat!"
She stuffed the steamed bun into the boy's hand.
Jiang Feng was stunned for a moment, looking at the exquisitely packaged buns in his hand, and his eyes instantly reddened.
"Thank you, sister! You're such a kind person! Little sister, remember, it was this sister who gave us the food!"
Jiang Feng held Jiang Yu's hand and told her to remember the face of her benefactor.
The little girl timidly cast a grateful glance, then picked up the bun her brother handed her, took a small bite, and her eyes lit up.
It's minced meat! It tastes so good! It's so good that it's beyond what a little girl could imagine.
She ate bite after bite until only half was left, then reluctantly stopped, saying, "Brother, you eat it."
"You eat it, it's okay, I'll eat this."
Jiang Feng gave two white and soft-looking buns to Jiang Yu, and kept one that looked yellow and hard for himself.
However, for him who hadn't eaten in a long time, this was quite delicious. He only ate half of it, wanting to save the rest for when he got hungry again.
Seeing this, Bai Mengran told them to wait for her for a while, then turned around and went into the shop.
The two were quite surprised to see the fairy sister disappear in the blink of an eye.
"Little sister, do you think this is Mother sending a fairy sister to bring us delicious food, and then she'll come and take us away after we've eaten it all...?"
"Waaah, brother, I'm scared, Xiaoyu doesn't want to die..."
……
At this moment, Bai Mengran was completely unaware that she had already taken over the role of the Black and White Impermanence in the eyes of the two children, and was to feed them and send them on their way.
She was packing buns for them at the convenience store; she had put three meat buns and three brown sugar steamed buns in an insulated box.
While taking the bun, he reported it to the system, saying, "System, just deduct the cost of this bun from my earnings!"
[It's alright, host. I saw everything. You were just trying to help someone, so I'll cover all the expenses!]
"Tong'er, you're so generous! Then I'll thank you on behalf of my brother and sister. May Tong'er live a long and peaceful life!"
What do you do when you encounter such a kind system?
Unable to repay it, Bai Mengran could only work even harder to earn points for it!
She made up her mind in secret.
Bai Mengran, who once again appeared out of nowhere, has taken on a new meaning in the eyes of the brother and sister.
"Sister...are you here to take us away...?"
Jiang Feng gripped his sister's hand tightly, but his body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
"...Go? Go where?" Bai Mengran didn't understand.
"Sister, aren't you the fairy sister sent by Mother? Let us eat our fill and then go to heaven to see Mother..."
Jiang Yu spoke cautiously, glancing up at the sky.
"..." Bai Mengran was speechless.
I have to say, children have such vivid imaginations; they've even imagined her as a fairy descended from heaven...
"Who told you that! I went to get you a few more steamed buns so you could eat more! What are you thinking?!"
Bai Mengran raised her head, feigning anger.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the two little brats exchange anxious glances, and she secretly suppressed a laugh.
Jiang Feng hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry, sister, we misunderstood. It's just that the steamed buns you gave us were so delicious that I thought... Sister, please don't be angry..."
Seeing that he was taking it seriously, Bai Mengran stopped teasing them.
She noticed that they had only eaten half of the buns she had given them, so she continued to pretend to be angry and said, "I won't be angry if you two finish all the buns in your hands, then I'll forgive you!"
The two glanced at Bai Mengran, then at the steamed buns in their hands, and then buried themselves in their food.
After finishing the meat bun, Jiang Yu picked up another bun and started eating it.
Hmm? This is sweet! The yellow filling inside is even runny, it's so delicious!
She ate half a custard bun, and seeing that Jiang Feng had already finished his vegetable bun, she insisted on giving him the remaining half.
Jiang Feng refused to eat it, so she didn't eat it either. In the end, Jiang Feng had no choice but to pick up the half of the custard bun and eat it.
He was surprised when he took a bite. This bun was much tastier than the vegetable bun he had just eaten. He had never eaten such a delicious bun before!
Seeing that they had all eaten, Bai Mengran nodded in satisfaction.
She handed the insulated box she had brought to Jiang Feng, saying, "Take these buns. As long as they're in this box, they'll stay warm. Eat them whenever you get hungry."
Jiang Feng didn't reach out; he hesitated, "Sister, you've already helped us so much, we can't take this!"
Bai Mengran thought to herself, "What a kind child."
To save his dignity, she suddenly came up with a plan.
"Hey little brother, what's your name?"
Jiang Feng didn't understand why he was suddenly asked his name, but he still answered, "My name is Jiang Feng, and my sister's name is Jiang Yu."
"Okay, Jiang Feng, here's the thing, I'm not giving you these buns for nothing. I have some things I'd like you to do for me. I wonder if you'd be willing?"
“Yes! I’m willing! Just tell me what you need, sister!” Jiang Feng replied excitedly.
Bai Mengran secretly glanced at the time; it was already 17:15 PM, and it was too late to make it today.
"Jiang Feng, come here again around noon tomorrow. I have something to ask you to do. We can discuss the details when we meet tomorrow."
"Okay, sister, I understand. I'll come and wait for you tomorrow!"
Jiang Feng carefully noted down the time, knowing he had to come early tomorrow and couldn't let his sister arrive first.
"Oh, right, I have some wet wipes here. Take them and wipe yourself down properly before you come here tomorrow. As for your clothes... I'll figure something out tomorrow."
Bai Mengran initially wanted to give him her old clothes to wear, but then thought it wouldn't be appropriate.
"I understand, sister. I'll find a place to wash myself tonight. I have a clean set of clothes in my bag, but I haven't worn them because I'm so dirty. I'll change into them tomorrow."
Jiang Feng knew that if his sister wanted him to do something, he definitely couldn't act like he was now.
Seeing his intelligence and quick understanding, Bai Mengran felt that she hadn't chosen the wrong person.
Seeing that Jiang Feng was looking at Jiang Yu with a hesitant expression, she told him that he could bring his sister with him tomorrow, so it wouldn't cause any trouble.
Bai Mengran handed the steamed bun back to Jiang Feng, said goodbye to them, and went home.
……
The Su residence at this time.
As soon as Su Yingying and Zhu'er entered the door, the old housekeeper came to greet them.
"Miss, you're finally back! Master was so worried about you not returning for so long!"
"Uncle Zhou, where are my parents?"
"Master, Madam, and the two young masters are all waiting for you in the dining hall, Miss! Please go quickly. Today, Master has specially invited Chef Liu, who used to be the head chef of a restaurant in the capital, to cook for you!"
"Okay, I'll be right there!"
When Steward Zhou saw that they were carrying several strange-looking bags, he quickly ordered the servants to go and help. Unexpectedly, Su Yingying was worried and insisted on carrying them herself with Zhu'er.
