Chapter 23

Zhao Huzi laughed happily, his eyes narrowed into slits, and his row of white teeth sparkling: "Xiaohan, why are you so polite to me? We used to play together when we were kids, and I often came to your house to eat..."

Is there any? Mu Yunhan fell into thinking and reminiscing.

Zhao Huzi reminded her: "We also went down to the river to touch fish and shrimps together. I touched a big river clam. If you said you wanted to see if there were any pearls in it, I would give it to you."

It seemed that this was the case, Mu Yunhan's expression softened a bit. Although the Zhao Lizheng family refused to save them, Zhao Huzi was a good person.

"Cough! Cough!" Goddess Gu coughed.

Hearing Goddess Gu cough, Mu Yunhan hurriedly invited them in and asked Mu An and Mu Ying to call someone.

Mu An and Mu Ying swooped behind Zhao Huzi and stuck their heads out to peek at Gu Fenglin and Gu Shenpo. Their faces were tense and they completely lost the joy they felt when they were with Zhao Huzi.

Goddess Gu has long been used to it. Which child in the town is not afraid of her?

It would be even weirder to not be afraid of her, so she just said "hum" and walked inside.

Gu Fenglin smiled warmly, took out a handful of candies and handed them to Mu An and Mu Ying.

The two children's eyes were instantly attracted, and Mu Ying couldn't help but sip.

He smiled, handed the candy closer, and stood side by side with Zhao Huzi.

He was nearly half a head taller than Zhao Huzi, with white clothes like snow, fair skin, beautiful appearance, and outstanding temperament.

Except for Zhao Huzi's teeth and the whites of his eyes, which are relatively white, the rest of his body is dark, honest and honest, and his talent and appearance are quite different.

But he didn't care at all and said with a smile: "Master Gu has lost weight again. He needs to eat more to be in good health."

As for a man, it doesn't matter if he looks good, he must be strong enough to work and in good health.

Gu Fenglin smiled, bent down and looked at Mu Ying, and said softly "Huh?" in a long voice.

Mu Ying looked away with difficulty and shook her head firmly: "You can't just take other people's things."

Mu An nodded seriously.

Gu Fenglin raised his eyes and stared at Mu Yunhan, motionless.

Mu Yunhan hurriedly said: "Go on."

Mu An and Mu Ying then bowed and thanked them and took the candy.

Gu Fenglin rubbed Mu Ying's forehead with a look of approval on her face.

But Mu Ying gave most of the candy in her hand to Zhao Huzi: "Brother Huzi, eat it!"

"Xiao Ying is so good!" Zhao Huzi praised Mu Ying a few words, and unexpectedly met Gu Fenglin's smiling eyes, causing his heart to shrink.

After a moment of silence, he chose to say goodbye: "Xiaohan, you are busy, I will go back first, and I will come to fetch water for you in the afternoon."

Mu Yunhan didn't think: "No need, we will do it ourselves."

Zhao Huzi smiled, said nothing, looked at her deeply, and walked away.

Mu Yunhan raised his voice and called out to Mu Ying and Mu An: "Take some time to clean up and wash your hands."

Turning around, he found a barely complete little horse and asked Gu Fenglin to sit down: "The house is too messy. I have wronged my benefactor, so please sit here while I go and help my grandma."

Goddess Gu had already said hello to Mrs. Mu Er and was rummaging around for the dishes and chopsticks to wash.

Mu Yunhan was embarrassed to look at the pile of chipped broken bowls and old chopsticks. Gu Shenpo's expression remained unchanged, and he patiently washed them and ordered her: "Take out the food."

The meal was very sumptuous and steaming hot. Mu An and Mu Ying stood aside eagerly, drooling and greedy.

There was a bit of unbearability in Goddess Gu's eyes, and she scooped a large bowl of rice for each of the two children. She said with rare gentleness, "Eat it!"

Mu An and Mu Ying had good tutors and shook their heads: "Let's eat together."

Mu Yunhan thought that Goddess Gu and Gu Fenglin had eaten at home early, and Madam Mu couldn't get up from bed, so he said, "You guys eat first, I'll take care of my mother."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Gu Fenglin walking in, supporting Madam Mu Er. (To be continued)
