Chapter 148: Fire of War (4)

Her lips are red and white, her eyebrows are graceful and agile, and her black hair is naturally flowing down, making her face more delicate. She is wearing a cloak made of fine satin, and a circle of snow-white fluff around her neck occasionally flutters slightly in the cold wind.

"Wow……"

"Whose lady is this? It's a good sign."

Just like a fairy who fell into the mortal world, she is not stained by dust and cannot be desecrated.

In such a dangerous and bitterly cold place, how could anyone have seen a girl with such a symbol? They were all dumbfounded for a moment.

In the past few months, Ling Xiyue had rarely been so leisurely and relaxed. She went for a walk under the morning glow and breathed fresh. At this time, all the fatigue had disappeared. There was still a tough battle to fight, so she took the time to rest.

The subordinates of Jiuzhongdian all know that she has always advocated a combination of work and rest.

If Xiao Jiujun heard Ling Xiyue's idea, he would definitely cry and howl: Why didn't he know? If he knew, he would definitely implement it to the end.

The day's plan begins in the morning, and there are constant shouts on both sides of the street.

“Wontons, wontons!”

"Drink tea~"



Ling Xiyue looked left and right, smiling lightly.

"Girl, little girl..." Ling Xiyue was in a good mood, when she heard a timid cry from the side.

She turned around and saw an old grandfather. The dog was holding his waist and calling her from behind a stall made of a simple wooden board. He looked like he was about seventy or eighty years old. His hands that were eroded by the wind and frost were like tree bark, and he was holding something in his hands.

with a red rope.

"Little girl, let's take a look." The old man smiled, and the wrinkles on his face became more and more obvious.

Ling Xiyue pursed her lips. It was rare to be so patient. After hearing this, she actually walked over.

Perhaps because of Zhan Nantian, Ling Xiyue felt more warmth in her heart. Compared with her previous life, she also had more human touch. Seeing such an old man, Ling Xiyue couldn't help but think of thousands of miles away.

Grandpa outside.

It was so cold and freezing that the old man was only wearing a single garment that had been washed white and had many holes.

Seeing Ling Xiyue actually coming over, the smile on his rickety face became more kind, and he happily introduced Ling Xiyue, "Look, I have a lot of headbands here, all of which are your little girls' favorite styles. See if there is anything you like.

, my wife made it up herself, I will give you the cheapest price."

Only then did Ling Xiyue notice that there was an old woman beside the old man. She was sitting quietly beside him, groping for the rope in her hands. A pair of hands that were as dry as the old man were knitting them continuously.

Taking a closer look, I found that her eyes were dull and she was blind!

At this time, she suddenly coughed violently several times.

"Old lady, are you too cold? Do you want some hot water?" The old man immediately turned around, covered her clothes, and said anxiously, "I told you to stay at home, but you have to follow me. If you are sick,

What should I do?”

The old woman looked over blindly and waved her hands repeatedly, fearing that she would delay the business, "What a fuss, just cough twice. It will be fine soon. I'm fine. Leave me alone and call the girl."

"I'm not worried about you." The old man sighed.

Ling Xiyue looked at it and couldn't help but smile.

Perhaps, this is the simplest and purest form of love. No matter rich or poor, we support each other until we are gray-haired.

"Little girl, I'm sorry, my wife is relatively weak. He caught wind and cold a few days ago. I was too worried..." The old man said as he wiped away his tears and tried his best to suppress his choked voice, fearing that he would be caught by someone around him.

People heard, "Oh, by the way, have you chosen the one you like?"

Really, why is he talking to this girl about this? Isn't it just causing trouble for others?

Ling Xiyue held a red rope in her hand, and her eyes fell on the old woman. For some reason, she felt that she was too nosy, so she couldn't help but ask, "Fenghan? Have you seen the doctor?"

"How can a poor family like us afford to see a doctor?" The old man couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this. The dog hugged his body and looked at his wife distressedly, "Even if a doctor is willing to give a diagnosis, we can't afford medicine.

.”

In this era, even a small amount of wind and cold may kill someone!

That's why the old man was so panicked and scared.

Ling Xiyue raised her eyes again and examined the old woman carefully, "Fortunately, it's not a viral cold, it's just a common cold. But if you don't take good care of yourself, you will be in trouble sooner or later if you sleep in the open air."

"Really?" The old man's eyes lit up.

Although he didn't understand a little, he still understood the words "common cold".

Ling Xiyue hummed.

The old man raised his skinny hand to wipe the corners of his eyes, and looked at the girl in front of him with a smile again, "Let's go and talk, girl, do you have anything you like? It doesn't matter if you didn't choose it. My old lady is very skillful and can make up new ones every day. You can make up new ones every day."

I’ll see you tomorrow.”

"That's it." Ling Xiyue picked up the red rope headband in her hand.

"okay!"

I made my first business today, and the old man was very happy.

"How much does it cost?"

Ling Xiyue took another one easily.

"Ten cents for one, eighteen cents for two." The old man smiled from ear to ear.

Ling Xiyue nodded and reached for her waist. She was stunned as soon as she touched her waist. Only then did she realize with great embarrassment that she was going to walk around and take a walk without any money at all.

At this time, I don’t have a penny on my body!

"Uh..." Ling Xiyue laughed dryly and put down her things, "I went out in a hurry and didn't bring any money with me."

Hearing this, the smile on the old man's face was immediately replaced by disappointment, but it disappeared in a blink of an eye, and he soon smiled happily again, "It doesn't matter, I think you like it very much, I will give this red rope to you, anyway, it is the old lady herself

It’s made up at no cost.”

He picked up the red headband that Ling Xiyue picked first and handed it to her, "Little girl, it looks good." Suddenly he thought of something and murmured, "If my granddaughter were here, she should be as old as you.

Alright."

Ling Xiyue's heart was suddenly touched.

"Thank you." She took the red rope from the old man's hand and thanked her very politely, "I will send someone to send you the money later."

"No, no, no." The old man waved his hand.

I already told you to give it to this little girl. It’s not good to ask for more money, but it doesn’t feel like a forced sale.xdw8

Ling Xiyue frowned slightly, glanced at the old woman, then quickly took off her cloak and walked over to put it on the old woman.

"Old man?" The old woman felt that her body suddenly felt warm, as if she was wrapped in the sun. It was very warm and comfortable. She didn't know what happened, and she was a little at a loss and pulled the trouser leg of the old man next to her and called out.

"This, this..." The old man also panicked, "Girl, this is impossible!"

Look at the material of this cloak, I guess he couldn't buy it even if he sold it for hundreds of headbands!
