Mouth wide open, eyes wide open, tongue tentatively licking and biting, Tang Shi on the opposite side couldn't help laughing, and handed over a bamboo tube: "Girl can use this, insert it into the steamed stuffed bun, try to suck the soup first, then Eat buns again."
Yes! Glancing at her gratefully, Hua Chun hastily followed suit.
Only then did He Chang'an look Tang Shi squarely at him, and asked, "Can Lingtang teach you how to make soup dumplings?"
The little girl blushed, she stood up quickly and said, "I'll go and ask for you, wait a moment."
Although she sells steamed stuffed buns, this girl seems to be knowledgeable and courteous when she speaks. Hua Chun sucked on the hot soup and couldn't help but said: "The skills I learned must not be as authentic as this one. Second brother really likes to eat it. It's better to invite this boss back to the mansion."
"I don't know if he is willing to leave." He Chang'an said: "The business here is very good."
That's right, Hua Chun nodded, and ate half a cage of soup dumplings leisurely, his tongue was so hot that he couldn't feel it.
Miss Tang came back and said: "If the young master wants to learn, my father is willing to teach, but he has to pay respects to the teacher."
"Yeah." He Chang'an said: "I'll let a cook come to learn, and there will be no shortage of apprenticeship ceremony."
Smiling slightly, Miss Tang said: "I saw that you are from an aristocratic family. It's rare that you like to eat soup dumplings."
Hua Chun said with a smile: "Your soup dumplings are delicious. Once you taste them, you can tell that they are made of fresh meat and high broth. The skin of the steamed buns is thin and the fillings are rich, and the noodles are also chewy. Let alone this young master, even the current emperor , eat it and say it’s delicious!”
Tang Shi giggled and said, "You seem to like it very much. Today's two baskets of steamed stuffed buns are considered a little girl's treat. Thank you, Miss and Young Master, for your appreciation."
"So polite?" Hua Chunle said, "Thank you so much."
He Changan raised his eyebrows, looked sideways at Hua Chun, and said in a low voice, "You are really good at making friends when you go out."
With a smile on his face, Hua Chun's lips didn't move, and he squeezed out a voice between his teeth: "Are you stupid? The girl obviously treats you for your sake."
Slightly taken aback, He Changan frowned, glanced at Tang Shi, got up and said, "Take the rest away when you're full."
"Ah?" I didn't expect such a big reaction from him, Hua Chun was stunned, and then smiled: "Okay."
Tang hurriedly brought a paper bag, packed the soup for them, and sent them out: "Go slowly."
Waving at her, Hua Chun turned around, looked at the person next to him and said, "Second brother doesn't like women?"
"Don't talk nonsense." He Changan pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "There are still a lot of fun ahead, just go and see."
Being weird, Hua Chun pouted, not thinking about it for the time being, and continued to move forward through the sea of people. As a result, within two steps, there was excitement to watch.
"This is obviously my child. I cried because I was upset when I beat him up. Why do you say I'm a human trafficker?" An old lady was holding a baby and yelled at the people next to her.
Huachun was curious, and hurriedly squeezed into the crowd to see the situation. The aunt was vicious, and the baby in her arms was crying. A scholar-like person stood in front of her, cupped his hands and said, "If it's really your child, why don't you see a little bit of distress on your face when you cry so hard? A mother loves her flesh and blood and thinks about it carefully, but you hug The child who lost one of his shoes didn’t even find you looking for him, so how could he be his own child?”
The people around were talking about it, and many people thought that the scholar was meddling in other people's business, and he could be regarded as a human trafficker even if he had a child in his arms.
There was obviously a flustered expression on the aunt's face, and Hua Chun was almost sure that this was a human trafficker.
People who kidnap other people's children are the worst! Immediately, she couldn't hold back any longer. Seeing that the aunt was about to leave, she took a step forward and blocked her: "Stop!"
"Hey, one meddler is not enough, another one is here?" The aunt was angry: "If you keep doing this, I will report to the police!"
"Okay." Hua Chun nodded, and called back: "Qing Niao, help her report to the police."
"Yes." Qing Ling replied and walked out of the crowd.
Now the aunt panicked even more: "Aren't you guys having nothing to do? Even if I take my son to the street, you can still be regarded as a human trafficker? Report to the police?"
"Don't you want to report to the police? I'm just helping you." Hua Chun said, "You said this is your son, what's his name?"
The aunt frowned, seeing that she was a little girl, she really wanted to pass her and leave. However, in the blink of an eye, there was a man standing behind the little girl, full of elegance and handsome features, he was not from ordinary people at first glance.
Eyeballs rolling around, she stammered: "This child is called Xiao Wu."
"Really? Little Five?" Hua Chun called out to the child.
The five or six-year-old child, who can understand people's speech naturally, cried and shook his head at her.
Now everyone around can understand that the child doesn't even recognize the name, so can it be his own
Seeing that the situation was not right, the aunt threw the doll towards Huachun, turned around and ran away.
He Changan frowned, stood in front of her and caught the child, then let out a low voice: "Grab her!"
A few black shadows "swish" out of the crowd, and they pushed the woman to the ground with a few hits. The crowd was in an uproar, and the scholar who had just helped to speak was also stunned, staring at them blankly.
"Where did you get it from?" Hua Chun asked with a serious expression, looking at the woman.
"Beside... on the next street." The trafficker panicked after being held down tightly, "Let go of me first!"
Hua Chun struggled to bring the child over, wiped his face with a handkerchief, and put the bag of soup dumplings into his arms: "Don't cry, baby, we will take you to find your mother, the bad guys will be imprisoned." Wake up."
The voice was so gentle that He Changan was slightly startled when he heard it, and glanced sideways at her.
The little doll was still sobbing, but when she saw that there was food to eat, she immediately stopped crying, choked up for a while, and began to bite into the still hot buns.
"Go to the next street and ask if anyone has lost their child. Let's wait in the tea shop ahead." Hua Chun ordered back.
Although no one responded later, there were obviously a few breaths who led the order and left.
Hua Chun took the child and He Changan to the front.
"Miss, stay!" The scholar from just now caught up, looked at her uneasy and said, "Although I know the girl's intentions are good, I still have to wait for the child to find his mother before he can rest assured."
Slightly taken aback, Hua Chun looked back at him.
The scholar's face can be regarded as ugly, there is a scar from the forehead to the cheekbones, but the eyes are very clear, which makes people feel very comfortable.
"Then you go to the teahouse with us and wait."
"good."
He Chang'an also looked at the scholar twice, and when he sat down in the teahouse, he still asked, "What's your surname?"
"In Xialu Sanbian." The scholar said bluntly: "Thank you two for your kindness today."
It's strange, he wasn't the one who saved him, why is he thanking him? Hua Chun thought it was funny, and also felt that this person was quite interesting, so he chatted with him a few more words.
"Master Lu is a student in the school?"
"Exactly." Lu Sanbian said: "I should have participated in the last scientific examination, but the silver is not enough, so I can only wait."
oh? Hua Chun raised his eyebrows: "Mr. Lu, have you read poetry and books?"
"I'm ashamed to say it." He said shyly: "I only read the Four Books and Five Classics three or five times, but I read a lot of strange writings and annals. My husband said that I am restless and always like to go to the street to look around. , When encountering injustice, I still love to stand out.”
It is obvious that he loves to stand out, Hua Chun smiled and asked: "What do you think about today's affairs, young master?"
Glancing at the little doll sitting next to him eating soup dumplings, Lu Sanbian sighed: "In recent years, children have been abducted frequently in Yanjing. Parents have nowhere to complain. Many traffickers still have backgrounds. Even if they are caught It won’t be closed for too long. The court has problems with sentencing.”
Still understand sentencing? Hua Chun found it even more interesting, and asked him, "What punishment do you think the traffickers should be sentenced to?"
"According to the number of abducted children, one child will be imprisoned for five years, two children will be imprisoned for ten years, and so on." Lu Sanbian said: "In this way, they should have some scruples."
"Perhaps they are not afraid of just being detained. They always have a fluke mentality." Hua Chun said: "Why not directly sentence the death penalty?"
Lu Sanbian shook his head: "The law of the country is used to deter people and make people dare not make mistakes, not to retaliate after making mistakes. If the traffickers are caught, they will be sentenced to death, which is very likely to make them fearless." , Kill all the abducted children before being caught, anyway, the consequences of killing and trafficking are the same.”
Surprised, Hua Chun and He Changan exchanged glances.
This young man has a bright future. It can be seen that he hates trafficking, but he is not extreme at all, what he says is reasonable, and he knows how to measure punishment. Isn't such a person suitable for the Ministry of Criminal Justice
The former emperor of scientific research selected a group of people to go up, but she seems to have heard about the scarcity of talents in the Ministry of Justice. Is this considered lucky today, and picked up a professional counterpart
"Which school does the young master study in?" Hua Chun asked.
Lu Sanbian smiled and said, "It's the Jingshi Academy."
"Yeah." Nodding, she silently wrote it down, thinking of going back and writing a letter to the emperor to give him an assist.
The child's mother quickly found them, and thanked and worshiped them. Hua Chun quickly waved his hand, returned the child, and said goodbye to Lu Sanbian.
I don't know if it's because of helping others, Hua Chun is in a great mood, and the smile on his face has never been taken off.
He Changan looked at it, and couldn't help laughing with her: "There are still delicious food ahead."
"Are you going to feed me into a pig?"
As he said so, he still ran faster than anyone else, and immediately went to watch the fried shrimp skewers and the mutton skewers.
At the end of the day, Hua Chun felt more relaxed and happy than ever before. When he returned to the Hou Mansion, he couldn't help showing off to Wan Shi: "We saved a child today!"
Wan Shi looked at her and said, "If only you were always this happy."
Slightly taken aback, Hua Chun smiled and waved his hands: "Mother is worrying too much, my daughter is indeed so happy all the time."
