But in the end, a strong wind the next day interrupted her plan to return home.
The wind was so strong that all the flowers, plants and trees in Zhai Jiu's courtyard suffered damage.
Zhai Jiu was watching the increasingly strong wind in the small living room. He turned his head to look at Fu Xiao who was frowning beside him and smiled, "Don't rush. It's not safe on the road in such a strong wind. Let's wait for two more days."
Fu Xiao nodded blankly, listening to the whistling of the wind outside the window.
Although I don't want to, I have no choice.
The wind was really strong. I heard from the Zhai family this morning that a tree as thick as a bowl was broken outside the compound.
Pick up a book from the side and try to calm yourself down.
The wind made a sound through the window.
The sound was noisy and boisterous, much like a raging wave coming from a mountain and sea.
The strong wind blew for a whole day and night, and the wind was a little lighter early the next morning.
When you go out and take a look, you can see ruins and tree trunks everywhere on the road.
In the military compound, many guards were clearing branches off the road. When you walked out of the compound, you could see that the road leading to the main road had been cleared.
Mu Lianshen and several people in the compound were busy cleaning up everything that was damaged by the strong wind. He was wearing a simple white shirt and black pants, and was cleaning up a very dangerous tree.
Some walls were damaged by trees, and many trees were broken in half. They need to be cut down, otherwise it will easily cause secondary damage.
Someone saw her and pushed Mu Lianshen who was chopping trees nearby. He turned around and saw her, handed the tools in his hand to the person next to him, patted the dirt on his hands, took two quick steps to her, and said in a gentle tone: "Why are you here?"
Fu Xiao glanced at the wounds on his hands and said calmly, "Come and see if there's anything I can help you with..."
Mu Lianshen frowned: "There's nothing you can do, go back..."
He wanted to reach out and push her back... As soon as he reached out, he saw that his hand was not clean at the moment, and timidly withdrew his hand, "Go back, it's still windy, the trees have been blowing all night, many trees are not stable, and they will hurt you again."
As he spoke, he shielded her from the leaves that were blown by the wind.
He pulled Fu Yu, who was helping to hold the tree, over and said, "Take her back. We don't need you here."
Although there was no need to listen to him, Fu Yu was also concerned about Fu Xiao's safety. He pulled her into the Zhai family compound and rushed out again.
Fu Xiao sat in the yard, sensing the outside world with his mental power.
There are no tools now, and felling trees has to rely on manpower. Seeing so many people holding a tree, they also have to be careful not to let the tree fall on the house.
It's really hard and dangerous.
The most dangerous tree was cut down, and the loud noise of it falling startled Fu Xiao who was reading a book.
After using his mental power to sense that no one was injured, he stopped paying attention to it.
After a while, Mu Lianshen walked in and sat down next to her.
Fu Xiao raised his eyes to look at him and said calmly: "Are you...something wrong?"
Mu Lianshen reached out to roll up the sleeves of his stained shirt and smiled, "I heard from your brother that you were preparing to go back..."
Fu Xiao raised his hand to pour him a cup of tea, pushed it in front of him, then lowered his eyes and said, "Yes, I miss home a little. I will go back tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
Home?
Yes, the place she called home was thousands of miles away, not here.
Mu Lianshen's hands on his knees trembled slightly. He picked up the teacup and took a sip, saying in a low voice, "I want to see you off... I also want to go see your mother... Is that okay?"
Fu Xiao pursed his lips and remained silent for a long time.
The longer the silence lasted, the paler his face became. He stared at her blankly and slowly said, "It's not safe on the road. I want to protect you..."
"I really miss your mother...I have something to tell her."
There were many emotions in his eyes, and one could vaguely see a hint of pleading.
"Sure..." Fu Xiao suddenly spoke in a calm voice, "Of course you can go see her. I remember I promised you."
"Thank you," Mu Lianshen's fingertips trembled slightly, and his handsome face was pale.
She said she could go see her mother, but she didn't say she could see her off.
He lowered his eyelids to hide the surging emotions in his eyes, and his voice was hoarse: "I will arrange a car for you..."
Fu Xiao smiled faintly: "Uncle Jiu should be ready..."
In fact, she had no other intentions, Zhai Jiu was really ready, and the driver had already been arranged, just in time to take Shen Xingzhou back to Lin City.
Yes, the toxins in Shen Xingzhou’s body have been almost completely cleared, and he can go back to see his uncle this time.
But Mu Lianshen seemed to be thinking more, because his expression became increasingly uglier.
He took a deep breath and smiled, "Then I'll follow you..."
Fu Xiao smiled faintly and nodded.
There was no need for her to stop him from seeing Fu Jingshu. After all, she didn't understand the relationship between them.
Mu Lianshen walked out of Zhai's house, calmed down his emotions, and went straight to the hospital to see Grandpa Mu.
When I arrived, Mr. Mu was sweeping fallen leaves with a big broom.
He took a few quick steps forward and took the broom from him, "Dad, you're not feeling well, why can't you stay idle?"
Mr. Mu took a deep breath and straightened up with great effort. "What's the big deal? The doctors are busy. I have nothing to do, so I might as well take this as exercise."
He stood aside and watched Mu Lianshen clean up the fallen leaves in just two or three strokes. "Youngest, why did you come to the hospital at this time? Is the compound okay?"
Mu Lianshen put down the broom and walked forward to help him walk to the ward. "We have finished the work in the yard. It's nothing. It's just that the flowers you planted in the yard were damaged."
