The capital is divided into four cities, the East City, the West City, the South City, and the North City. The East City is mainly the imperial city. The South City is the area where dignitaries live. The West City is the business district, and merchants basically live here. The North City

It is a slum area, and the people who live here are poor or low-income people.

The West Market is a business district, very prosperous and lively. There are many shops, restaurants, and guesthouses here. The streets are also lined with various stalls. The sound of selling here can be heard from morning to night.

Zhao Yao sat on Liang Run's shoulder and looked around curiously. He found that he hadn't been here for a while and there were many new shops and stalls here.

Liang Run saw the stall in front of him buying sugar paintings, so he walked over with Zhao Yao on his back and asked the boss to draw a tiger. There was another stall selling red date and yam cakes in front of him, so Liang Run bought some more for Zhao Yao.

Zhao Yao sat on Liang Run's shoulder, eating sweet sugar paintings and delicious red date and yam cake.

Not far ahead there were people performing a show, breathing fire from their mouths, breaking rocks from their chests, throwing large porcelain jars, etc.

Many people were watching, and when they saw something wonderful, they would applaud and praise. At this time, someone would come up to everyone with a cymbal, and everyone would give a few rewards.

Liang Run also gave two copper coins, and then he carried Zhao Yao forward. There was another performer in front of him. It was an old man who directed a big monkey and a small monkey to do various interesting and interesting movements, making the onlookers laugh.

.

These two monkeys have golden fur, handsome faces, and very smart expressions, which are very popular with onlookers.

The big monkey was still performing boxing, and the little monkey walked up to the onlookers with a large cracked bowl, humming and saying something.

Although the onlookers couldn't understand what the little monkey was saying, they could probably guess what it meant, so they tipped a few coins into the bowl.

The little monkey is very understanding of human nature. When someone gives money, it will bow and thank you.

The onlookers liked the little monkey even more when they saw it was so polite. People who originally only rewarded one copper plate would be tempted to reward another one or two copper plates.

After a while, the little monkey walked up to Zhao Yao. Not long ago, Zhao Yao asked Liang Run to put him down.

The little monkey was a little afraid of Lai Man who was following Zhao Yao. Seeing his fear, Zhao Yao asked Lai Man to hide behind him.

"Laiman is very good, he won't bite you." Zhao Yao said, putting the five copper coins in his hand into the broken bowl in the little monkey's hand. "What's your name?" He asked again, "How tall are you?

You are so beautiful, are you a boy or a girl?" This was the first time he saw a monkey covered in golden fur.

The little monkey felt a warm feeling from Zhao Yao, which made it boldly step forward. It opened its mouth and said to Zhao Yao: "My name is Xiaoniu, and I am a girl."

Zhao Yao knelt down and stretched out his hand to the little monkey: "Little girl, my name is Yao Yao, can we be friends?"

The little girl looked at Zhao Yao with wide eyes in shock, "Can you understand what I'm saying?"

Zhao Yao smiled and said, "Yes, can we be friends?"

It was the first time that the little girl saw someone who could understand her words, and her face was full of disbelief. She imitated Zhao Yao's movements and stretched out her right hand.

Zhao Yao stretched out his hand to hold the girl's right hand and shook it gently: "Then we will be friends."

Lai Man stuck his head out from behind Zhao Yao and called out to the girl twice in a low voice: "My name is Lai Man, and I am Yao Yao's friend. Now that you are Yao Yao's friend, you are also my friend."

The little monkey was a little frightened and shrank its neck. It looked at Zhao Yao for help.

Zhao Yao reached out and touched the little monkey's head, smiled and said: "You are my good friend here. He is very good and will never bite you. Don't be afraid."

Laiman hurriedly said: [You are my friend and Yaoyao's, I will not bite you. ]

The little monkey nodded, then turned his head and looked at Lai Man: "If you don't bite me, then I won't be afraid of you."

Laiman wagged his tail happily: [Girl, you look so good-looking.]

The girl who was praised for her good looks had a happy smile on her pretty face.

"Little girl, is this your mother?" Zhao Yao pointed at the dancing big monkey and asked the little monkey.

The little monkey nodded and said: "Yes, she is my mother."

"What's your mother's name?"

【Big girl.】

In the eyes of others, a beautiful child is talking to a good-looking little monkey. The little monkey is babbling, and the little boy seems to understand what it is saying and talks to it again seriously.

.This scene is fun, cute and heart-warming, and everyone present can’t help but feel a smile on their face.

"Little Master, can you understand what the little monkey is saying?" asked an aunt standing next to Zhao Yao.

"Yes, it says it's called Xiaoniu and its mother is called Daniu."

The aunt pretended to be surprised: "Young Master is really awesome." Of course, the aunt didn't really think that Zhao Yao could understand what the little monkey was saying. She thought that Zhao Yao heard the old man calling the names of the two monkeys.

"Your child is so handsome." The aunt said this to Liang Run.

People say that my nephew looks like my uncle. Zhao Yao and Liang Run are somewhat similar. My aunt thought that Zhao Yao was Liang Run's son.

Liang Run was very happy when his nephew was praised for his good looks, and said with a smile: "He looks just like his mother." Yaoyao looks very much like her sister, especially their eyes, which are exactly the same.

"Auntie, you're good-looking too." Reciprocity is the same, and if people compliment him on his good-looking appearance, he will of course also compliment others on their good-looking appearance.

The aunt suddenly smiled like a flower: "Young Master, your mouth is so sweet." After saying that, she took out an apple from the basket she was carrying and said, "Young Master, let's eat it for you. It's very sweet."

Zhao Yao was not polite, stretched out his hands to take it, and gave the aunt a bright smile: "Thank you, aunt."

The aunt couldn't hold it back and reached out to touch Zhao Yao's head, "You're welcome."

"Auntie, can I give the apple you gave me to the little girl?"

"sure."

"Thank you, Auntie." Zhao Yao turned around and put the red apple in his hand into the bowl in the little girl's hand, "Little girl, let's eat it for you."

The little girl liked apples very much and immediately thanked Zhao Yao: "Thank you Yao Yao." After saying that, she took the apple back to the old man and gave it to him.

The old man bowed his hand to Zhao Yao to express his gratitude, and then placed the apple in the bamboo building aside.

The girl continued to hold the bowl and begged the onlookers for money.

Seeing Zhao Yao staring at the little monkey, Liang Run picked him up and asked, "Yao Yao, do you like these two monkeys?"

"Well, they are very beautiful and very smart." Monkeys are smarter than other animals. The most important thing is that monkeys can do many things like humans, which other animals cannot do.

"If you like them, we'll buy them."

"Second uncle, that old man probably wouldn't sell the little girl and the others." Zhao Yao could tell that the old man liked his two monkeys and treated them as his own children. The most important thing is that the two monkeys can make him money, so that

He will continue to live in this world. "But, second uncle, we can ask the old man to take the little girl and the others to work for us."

"Doing something?" Liang Run asked, "What do you do?"

"Second uncle, there are so many things they can do." Zhao Yao said with a deep smile, "Second uncle, let's come find them again after their performance is over."

"Okay." Liang Run couldn't see anything special about an old man and two monkeys.

Zhao Yao followed Liang Run to the teahouse not far ahead. They sat by the window on the second floor, just in time to watch the performance of the old man and the two monkeys.

About half an hour later, the performance between the old man and the two monkeys ended. Upon seeing this, Liang Run hurriedly walked out of the teahouse and walked up to the old man. He said something to the old man, and then the old man followed him with the two monkeys.

He walked into the teahouse behind him.

The little girl was very happy to see Zhao Yao and ran towards him jumping up and down.

Zhao Yao hugged it, and it held Zhao Yao's neck with both hands and rubbed Zhao Yao's face. Zhao Yao rubbed its face in return.

The old man held the big girl and greeted Zhao Yao politely.

Zhao Yao asked the old man to sit down.

Liang Run poured the old man a cup of tea.

The old man has been traveling around the world as a performer for decades, and has long since developed the ability to have a "fierce eye". He could tell at a glance that Zhao Yao was a noble person, and he also saw that Liang Run respected Zhao Yao.

"Grandpa, how old are the big girl and the little girl? Have they been following you?"

"As for the young master, the eldest girl is three years old this year, and the little girl has just turned two this year." The old man said in a respectful tone, "More than a year ago, I accidentally rescued the eldest girl and the little girl who fell into a trap..."

Big Niu and Little Niu fell into a trap set by humans and were seriously injured. The old man took them home for treatment. Under the careful care of the old man, Big Niu and Little Niu gradually recovered.

After the injury healed, the big girl did not take the little girl back to the forest, but chose to stay with the old man and live with him.

The old man had no children and was alone. When he saw the two monkeys willing to stay with him, he was naturally happy. So he adopted them.

The big girl and the little girl were very smart and could understand people's speech. So the old man trained them to perform arts to make money. Although the money they earned was not a lot, they could support the three of them. In this way, the three of them depended on each other.

"Grandpa, are you willing to take the older and younger girls to work for me?" Zhao Yao said, "I will pay you wages every month and provide you with a place to live, so that you don't have to go around performing arts."

"Young Master, what do you want us to do for you?"

"Grandpa, don't worry, I won't let you do bad things." Zhao Yao touched the little girl's belly and said to the old man, "Grandpa, you should know that you will not always be safe when you take the big girl and the little girl to perform.

Sooner or later, older girls and younger girls will also be coveted by others. After all, older girls and younger girls are too eye-catching, and danger will come to you."

These words spoke to the worries deep in the old man's heart. He knew very well that the big girl and the little girl were not only good-looking, but also very intelligent and humane. The most important thing was that they could make money by performing arts, which would make people with ulterior motives worry about them.

His ability can't protect the big girl and the little girl at all.
