Who could it be?
Liu Zhe was curious. He had just arrived here, so he definitely didn't know anyone. Could it be that he was here to look for Minister Ma? Liu Zhe went to open the door with confusion.
Liu Zhe opened the door and found an old couple outside. Their clothes were tattered, their faces dirty, and they carried bags on their backs. The wind blew and dust fell. The two of them were deeply tired and had the lethargy of an old man.
"Master, please give me something to eat.”Seeing Liu Zhe open the door, the two of them knelt down and begged Liu Zhe to give them some food.
"Hey, you guys get up first." Liu Zhe was shocked. This was the first time he had encountered such a thing. He was carrying Little Xinxin, so it was not convenient for him to help the two of them up. He could only try his best to pull them up.
"Stop kneeling. Come in. I have some food here.”Liu Zhe couldn't refuse the two of them. He knew that they had been hungry for a long time. It was already amazing that they could persist to come here.
Liu Zhe brought some leftover food for the two of them. The two of them wolfed down the porridge. They finished it in two mouthfuls. Their enthusiasm did not match their status as elders.
They finished the porridge in the blink of an eye. When they finished eating, the two of them remembered that their master was standing beside them.
The two old men were a man and a woman. They were about 50 years old, or maybe even younger. Perhaps they had been exposed to the sun and rain, so they looked older. Anyway, Liu Zhe could not tell their age.
"Thank you for saving my life, Master." The old man and the old woman knelt down again.
"Hey, get up quickly." Liu Zhe was about to faint. He finally understood that those people who watched ancient TV dramas would kneel for no reason. It turned out that there was a tradition.
The two old men were several times older than Liu Zhe. Liu Zhe did not dare to accept their kneeling. He quickly jumped to the side and told them to get up.
Liu Zhe heaved a sigh of relief when he finally got them to stand up and sit down.
Liu Zhe asked about their situation. He learned from the old man that the old man was called Xi Zhaoxi. Because of the drought at home, he brought his wife to seek refuge with his nephew.
The journey was arduous. After climbing mountains and wading through water to reach this place, they found that their nephew had gone on a parade. They did not know when he would return. What was more serious was that the food they had brought had long been eaten up. If they couldn't find their nephew, the two of them would be reduced to begging.
Today, they had been begging for the whole day, and no one was willing to give alms. They had come to bid on Liu Zhe's door with the mentality of trying their luck. If there was really no food, they would starve to death very quickly.
"Then what do you plan to do next?”Liu Zhe didn't expect the two actors to be so miserable, and he couldn't bear it.
"I want to find a place to settle down and wait for my nephew to come back.”The actor said that with their physical conditions, it was impossible for them to go home again. They came to seek shelter with their nephew because they planned to live in their nephew's house for the rest of their lives.
"What if he doesn't come back?" Liu Zhe asked.
"This, I don't know either." The actor had never considered this question. After being asked, he could only smile bitterly and shake his head. He planned to take it one step at a time.
"Auntie, do you know how to take care of children?" Liu Zhe asked about the actors and actresses. His wife had been hiding behind the actors and actresses and did not dare to show her face in front of Liu Zhe.
"Master, what do you mean?" The actor was stunned, not understanding what Liu Zhe meant.
"You guys stay here." Liu Zhe said," I have a lot of empty rooms here. You can stay here for now and wait for your nephew to come back. I just hope auntie can help me take care of my sister.”
Liu Zhe had already considered this idea when he saw the two actors. Firstly, he sympathized with the two of them. Secondly, he didn't know how to take care of a child, especially a baby. He needed someone to help take care of Little Xinxin.
"Really?" When the actor heard this, he revealed a look of surprise.
"How is it?" Liu Zhe asked.
"Yes, yes." The actor hurriedly nodded in agreement. He pulled his wife down to her knees again and said," My wife knows how to take care of children. She has taken care of children before.”
"Is that so? That would be for the best." Liu Zhe was very happy when he heard that. With the wife of the actor taking care of Little Xinxin, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"All of you, get up." Liu Zhe gestured for the two of them not to kneel. He said," I don't like kneeling here. Don't kneel for no reason." Do you know?"
"Yes, Master." Xi Zhao pulled his wife to stand up and nodded in reply. He had already gotten into character and treated himself as Liu Zhe's servant.
"Wow…" Little Xinxin cried. Liu Zhe smiled bitterly. Did she know that he had found a nanny for her and was about to give it a try?
"Auntie, here, help me out.”Liu Zhe said politely to his wife.
The actress 'wife was extremely cautious. She saw that her hands were very dirty and quickly ran outside to wash them. She even put on a clean shirt before coming in and said,"Yes, yes, old, old master..."
She carefully took Little Xinxin over!
Needless to say, the wife of the actor was indeed good at taking care of children. She hugged Little Xinxin and gently shook her twice, and Little Xinxin's crying stopped.
Liu Zhe saw that this auntie was actually so attentive and could not help but be overjoyed!
"Elder Xi, what's your nephew's name?”Liu Zhe asked casually.
"A talent for acting…"
