Ning Yu was moved by Zhan Xiaolou's words and didn't know what to do. Her teary eyes stared at Zhan Xiaolou, as if tears were about to fall.
Due to kneeling for too long, his legs had long since become numb. He stood up before heavily falling down again. Zhan Xiaolou was quick to react as he turned to lift Ning Yu up from her waist. Only after he regained his balance did he let go of her hand.
Suddenly remembering that men and women were not close, Zhan Xiaolou said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I nearly fell over just now. I was a bit too anxious."
Ning Yu's face had turned red long ago, and her ears were red as if they were about to drip blood. She buried her head deep in her chest and spoke in a muffled voice.
"No …." "It's fine, thank you …"
"You've knelt for too long, so your blood circulation won't work. Sit down first and rub your legs. All you need is for your blood vessels to be connected."
Ning Yu sat down and rubbed her legs.
Zhan Xiaolou smiled and said, "You should rest here first. I'll go over and inform the people that came with me and then I'll go with you."
Just as Zhan Xiaolou was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Ning Yu. "Where's your home? Is it far away?"
Ning Yu quickly waved her hand. "It's not far. It's at the mountain village three to four miles away."
Zhan Xiaolou nodded and didn't say anything else. He told Auntie Lu to go back after selling the fish.
However, after speaking to Auntie Lu, she slapped her thigh.
Shanmen Village is the village where my family's Xiao Yi lives. I didn't tell you before that that village is called Shanmen Village, so I won't sell my fish to you and will make some for you.
Hearing that, Zhan Xiaolou thought, "That's good. We'll consider it along the way. It just so happens that after showing it to Ning Yu's mother, we'll go check out Lu Yi."
After accompanying Auntie Lu to buy some snacks and snacks, he called Ning Yu over and they headed towards the mountain gate village.
Auntie Lu drove the carriage, while Zhan Xiaolou and Ning Yu sat in the carriage at the back.
Ning Yu got on the car. She was always very reserved, and constantly expressed her thanks as she carefully sat upright.
Auntie Lu looked at him and sighed. What a pitiful person! However, his luck was still quite good. If he met Lou Cheng, he would help him.
As the carriage moved forward, Ning Yu's stomach suddenly rumbled twice.
Zhan Xiaolou turned to look at him and he shrunk back. He quietly apologized as if he had committed some great sin.
The way he acted caused Zhan Xiaoluo's heart to ache. He took out something wrapped in oily paper from his backpack and handed it over to Ning Yu.
He said softly with a smile, "Ning Yu, have you still not eaten? Hurry up and eat it. This steamed bun is still hot. "
Ning Yu remained motionless for a while. After a while, he slowly raised his head and looked at Zhan Xiaolou with teary eyes.
How could she be so gentle and kind? How could she not dislike him? Since he was young, no one had ever smiled at him. Everyone treated him like a god of plague and looked down on him. Other than his mother who smiled at him, everyone else rolled their eyes and cursed at him.
Zhan Xiaolou was stunned for a moment. When he saw the tears rolling down the corners of Ning Yu's eyes, he sighed and gently placed the steamed bun in his hand.
Ning Yu's heart was already in turmoil. Today, this girl, who was a stranger, was smiling at him and was even willing to help him. She was as kind as a fairy and he cried as he ate.
Zhan Xiaolou took out some other food and passed it to Auntie Lu. He also took out a canteen, folded the lotus leaves that held the food, and poured some water for Ning Yu.
"Drink some water, be careful not to choke."
Lou Cheng's casual words made Ning Yu's tears that she had gone through great difficulty to retract come back to her mind …
