Chapter 136 Want to Call for Help
Xixi didn't want to be separated from her mother. Zhou Yunshu thought that she had spent less time with Xixi recently, so she took Xixi to the front yard.
When Zhou Yunshu brought Xixi to the front yard, Du Mazi was stealthily leaning on the window of the back house, looking inside.
Seeing him like this, Zhou Yunshu coughed speechlessly.
Du Mazi turned around immediately and saw Zhou Yunshu and Xixi looking at him. A rare look of embarrassment appeared on his face.
“I, I…”
"What are you looking at?" Xixi looked at Du Mazi curiously. She had a pretty good impression of this adult who often bought her toys and candies.
"I'm looking at the newcomers." Du Mazi was just about to point to Xixi when Zhan Chuan bent down and walked out of the room.
"Wow~"
Xixi raised her little head and looked at Zhanchuan, who was already a giant to her, and said, "Uncle, you are taller than Uncle Huzi!"
Hu Zi, who followed Zhan Chuan, covered his chest and felt a little hurt when he heard Xixi's voice. Before Zhan Chuan came, he was the strongest man in the family.
When Zhan Chuan saw the little kid Xixi, he subconsciously wanted to turn around and avoid her. After all, his reputation among children was that of a Yaksha who liked to eat children. If he scared the little girl and made her have a nightmare, it would be his sin.
But what surprised him was that the little girl in front of him was not afraid of him at all. She even took the initiative to step forward and took his hand, pulling it and asking, "Uncle, what's your name?"
Zhan Chuan's hard heart was almost melted by the soft little hand in his hand. When Yao Niang was pregnant, he had imagined many times the scene of their daughter holding his hand like this.
At this moment, the fantasy scene was reproduced in reality, although the delicate and beautiful child in front of him was not his child.
"My name is Zhan Chuan."
Xixi said to him with sparkling eyes: "Uncle Dachuan, hug me!"
Xixi let go of Zhanchuan's hand and opened her arms to him with a smile.
Zhan Chuan had never seen a child smile at him before, especially such a pretty child. He was stunned for a moment. It was only when Xixi said it for the second time that he came to his senses and looked at Zhou Yunshu.
After seeing Zhou Yunshu nod with a smile, Zhan Chuan swallowed his saliva, squatted down and held the pink and delicate little person in his arms.
He didn't dare to use any force, and his whole body was stiff as a piece of hard wood.
It would have been fine if Xixi didn't move, but after being held in Zhanchuan's arms, Xixi became restless and wanted to climb onto Zhanchuan's arms.
For the first time, Zhan Chuan looked at someone for help, "Husband, Madam!"
Zhanchuan considered himself to be extremely brave and fierce, otherwise he would not have competed with those beasts in the Colosseum. But at this moment, he was really scared by the little one in his arms.
Zhou Yunshu looked at Zhan Chuan who wanted to shout for help, and the corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously, "Don't be afraid, she wants to sit on your shoulders."
Hu Zi, who was standing next to him, looked at Zhan Chuan with real jealousy in his eyes!
In the past, Xixi always sat on his shoulders and rode him like a big horse o(╥﹏╥)o
It must be that Xixi sees that Zhanchuan is taller than him, so she doesn’t like her “horse” anymore!
No, he has to find a chance to ask Dr. Xue if he still has a chance to grow taller. He must not lose to Zhan Chuan!
Upon hearing this, Zhan Chuan carefully put Xixi on his shoulders. His shoulders were broad, and Xixi was just right for sitting on them.
After Xixi sat down, Zhanchuan asked her to grab his hair, and then he stood there like a sculpture.
"Uncle Big Ship, charge!"
Xixi pointed at the front door of her house, completely unaware of Zhanchuan's nervous gaze below.
"Okay." Zhan Chuan hesitated for a long time before taking a step forward.
He didn't dare walk too fast, for fear of accidentally hurting the little one on his shoulder.
Zhou Yunshu looked at Zhan Chuan, who had raised his hands to protect Xixi, and Hu Zi and the other two who were guarding her, and said to Du Mazi beside her, "Don't you have something to talk to me about?"
Du Mazi nodded repeatedly, withdrew his gaze from Zhanchuan and Xixi, and followed Zhou Yunshu into the study.
"What happened?"
Du Mazi sat down and said, "Sir, didn't you ask me to go to Hongyun Winery to find out if there is any news?"
Zhou Yunshu looked up at Du Mazi's excited voice and asked, "Any news?"
Du Mazi smiled and nodded, "Yes, the shopkeeper said there was news from Tingzhou. Someone close to the old lady came to the winery to inquire about you, and now they have our address in Jiangzhong."
Finally, there was news about her grandmother. Zhou Yunshu excitedly clenched the cup in her hand, "Didn't the winery tell us where the old lady and the others are?"
Du Mazi shook his head. "He just said someone went to the winery and told them our location. If they get our location, the old lady should bring someone to meet you, sir."
Du Mazi actually didn't know who this old lady was, but from the few words he heard from Zhou Yunshu, Li Jialan and Old Man Xue, he could tell that this old lady was definitely a very powerful person.
Zhou Yunshu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "During this period, you should go to Hongyun Winery every day and report any new news immediately."
"No problem!" Du Mazi thought that when it came to getting information, no one could compare to him.
"Sir, I recruited a few little beggars with good words and bought clothes and food for them. They have nowhere to go for the time being. Can I..." Du Mazi's voice became weaker and weaker as he spoke.
If he had been short of money, he would never have thought of bringing these things to Zhou Yunshu to bother her.
"You have to spend money when you're out there. If you need money, just tell Chunque. I won't let you go short of money."
Zhou Yunshu looked at Du Mazi, who immediately smiled happily, and said, "Go get fifty taels of silver later and make arrangements for your brothers. The New Year is coming soon, so let them have a good year too."
Du Mazi excitedly stood up from his chair and said, "Don't worry, sir. I will definitely take care of it. Do you want to meet them? I will bring them home to pay their respects to you."
Du Mazi has now learned a lot of new words. Although they sometimes don't seem to fit in with his usage, they can clearly express his feelings.
"Let's wait until the New Year."
Du Mazi nodded repeatedly, then looked at Zhou Yunshu hesitantly.
Zhou Yunshu smiled and said, "If you have something to say, just say it. It's not like you to dither."
Du Mazi heard this and said, "Well, that's right, I was thinking... sir, could you help me come up with a new name?"
"Don't like your current name?"
"Not really. It's just that the name Du Mazi itself is a random name. It became a well-known name after being called out for a while. It was fine in the village before, and the name was nothing special. But now we are all in Jiangzhong, and the people you will meet in the future will all be people of status. My name is a bit difficult to get into that kind of place."
"Okay." Zhou Yunshu took over and said, "Naming is no small matter. I'll help you think about it and tell you tonight, okay?"
"Okay!" Du Mazi said excitedly, "Then I'll be out first, sir!"
"Go ahead."
As soon as Du Mazi left, the door of the study was opened again and Feng Xujie appeared at the door of the study.
"Tell me, what happened to you at the Lu family?"
