Chapter 94
Although Aping is not very old, he is very smart and clever, and he integrated into the new environment almost immediately.
Because of his status as a slave, he was able to walk outside the room while Mu Jiao was not allowed to enter and leave the room freely.
It was also because of Aping that Mu Jiao was locked in the room and was not unaware of any news from the outside world, especially the crisis of Yin Shiwei's premature illness. If Aping had not informed her in advance and allowed her to be prepared, the outcome would be unknown and might have been very bad.
Mu Jiao never treated A Ping as a slave and was always grateful for his care and help, especially when A Ping was still a little puppy. From the conversation, Mu Jiao learned that he had suffered a lot in his previous life.
Although Mu Jiao was still an orphan with few relatives in this life, she at least had enough food and clothing to live a stable and secure life. Ah Ping, on the other hand, had been displaced and suffered hardships since childhood. Ah Ping was two years older than Mu Jiao, but only half a head taller than her. He was also very thin, as thin as a bamboo pole. Mu Jiao was very short for a girl her age, and Ah Ping, who was only half a head taller than her, was a boy, so his height was also predictably... not up to standard. The contrast was even more obvious when he stood next to the two tall orc soldiers guarding her.
Looking at A Ping who was drinking clear milk carefully, Mu Jiao felt emotional. In her opinion, clear milk was the most common daily drink, but in A Ping's eyes, it was a precious food that needed to be treated with care.
When she separated the milk and gave it to A Ping for the first time, he looked so surprised and touched. He was cautious but refused to accept it. When she handed him the cup resolutely, he took it reluctantly and drank the first sip carefully. However, Mu Jiao noticed that he lowered his head and his eyes, which were slightly covered by his hair, had a hint of red at the corners, as if he was about to cry. She was so scared that she quickly touched his hair to comfort him.
This young boy had suffered so much in the past. Although A Ping was two years older than her, Mu Jiao, who had lived two lifetimes, treated him as her younger brother. This child was especially sensible and made her heart ache. Mu Jiao secretly made up her mind to feed this young boy until he was tall and strong.
Aping is not a very talkative boy. When he is with him, Mu Jiao usually brings up some topics for him first, and then Aping will slowly chat with her.
They are not familiar with each other and need to understand and get familiar with each other, so there are many topics to talk about every day.
From Ah Ping's past experiences to Mu Jiao's self-introduction, and then to their current situation, etc., Ah Ping was not talkative, but he was not cold to her either. Occasionally, when she talked about her past life experiences, Ah Ping would be very interested and would take the initiative to ask about things he didn't understand. It felt good to chat with Ah Ping, especially in these days when I was bored every day and was under surveillance every time I left my room.
Unfortunately, the time for chatting is always short, and there was a knock on the door as a reminder.
"Master, it's almost time. Aping has to leave first." Although Aping was allowed to come and go freely to take care of Mujiao's life, he would only stay a little longer for three meals and afternoon tea. After Mujiao finished her meal, he had to leave.
"No need, I'll go out with you. Wait for me, I'll go change clothes. It's almost time now, let's have dinner early today, I'll go to the kitchen with you, we can continue chatting on the way." Mu Jiao stood up and said something to A Ping, then ran back to the bedroom with Meng Meng in her arms to change clothes.
Ah Ping smiled and shook his head as he watched Mu Jiao trotting back. Then, the knock on the door sounded again, urging him to hurry out. Ah Ping turned his head and looked at the door of this room, a trace of disgust in his eyes. The two "watchdogs" outside, constantly monitoring their little master, and their words behind his back were also quite disdainful of his master, were really disgusting. However, although Ah Ping was annoyed, he understood that his master was in a difficult situation and naturally would not cause trouble for Mu Jiao.
"My two brothers, the master wants me to go to the big kitchen with her. She is washing up now, so she will be a little late." A Ping strode to the door of the room and explained loudly to the outside. Sure enough, there was no knocking on the door.
