Upon hearing this, the woman, her eyes reddening, grasped her daughter's hand and choked back tears, saying, "Yes, the entire surrounding area has been hit by disaster. My family is also on the verge of collapse. We've already arranged for a slave trader to come tomorrow, hoping they can give my child a chance to survive..."
"Don't worry, now that I'm here, I will not let you be separated from your family," Yun Zhourong assured the woman, holding her hand.
She understood that it wasn't that the woman was heartless, but that she had truly been driven to the brink of desperation.
Selling the child is better than keeping him at home and dying together.
"Alright, now take us to the granary," Ji Minxiu said, stepping forward and grasping Yun Zhourong's wrist.
Seeing this, the woman understood, wiped away her tears, and said, "Alright, alright, you two can come with me."
"Ah, we're not..."
Upon hearing the words "husband and wife," Yun Zhourong's heart skipped a beat, and her face instantly flushed red, but she quickly tried to explain.
She was not worthy of the noble Snow Demon Lord; she could not tarnish his reputation.
"Let's go."
Before she could finish speaking, Ji Minxiu interrupted her, leaning closer and whispering, "That's good too, it makes it easier to hide your identity."
"Well... alright then." Upon hearing this, Yun Zhourong didn't say anything more.
However, a secret, quiet joy inexplicably rose in my heart.
After walking for a while, the group arrived at the granary.
Ji Minxiu then asked, "How many people are in your village?"
“There are more than four hundred people in our village,” the woman quickly replied.
"Okay, I understand."
After saying that, Ji Minxiu nodded and went to the granary with Yun Zhourong.
"Mother, will we really have enough food?"
Outside the door, the girl looked at the woman and smacked her lips with relish, saying, "The dough balls were so delicious, so soft and fragrant. I've never eaten anything so delicious before."
"Yes, that's something only wealthy families can afford. It's my first time eating it too."
After the woman finished speaking, she looked expectantly at the closed granary door, "I hope the snow demon is real, then our whole village will be saved."
"Clang..."
Before long, Ji Minxiu and Yun Zhourong came out and handed a letter to the woman.
He solemnly said, "Alright, the grain has already been stored in the granary. Take this letter to the village chief and be sure to do as instructed in the letter, otherwise the Snow Demon will take back everything that has been bestowed upon you."
"Okay, I'll go right away, right away!"
Upon hearing this, the woman immediately ran towards the village chief's house with her two children.
“Then let’s go, to the next village,” Ji Minxiu said with a smile to Yun Zhourong.
"good."
Yun Zhourong also smiled brightly. She was in a great mood to be able to help so many people.
She believes that after this experience, the legend of the snow demon will surely gain more trust.
Afterwards, the two drove their motorcycle to four nearby villages, where they placed food and snow demon sculptures before driving their off-road vehicle back.
"That's wonderful! Lord Snow Fairy, do you think the villagers will be very happy to see so much grain?"
Yun Zhourong was still a little excited, her eyes sparkling. "If I wasn't afraid of being exposed, I really wanted to stay there and take a look."
Ji Minxiu smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, it definitely will."
"I think so too, just like when you first gave me food, I was so grateful... um..."
As Yun Zhourong was speaking, he suddenly clutched his lower abdomen and gasped.
"What's wrong?" Noticing that something was wrong with her, Ji Minxiu immediately stopped the car.
"I...I want to get off the bus, I want to get off the bus!"
Feeling the surging heat in her lower abdomen, Yun Zhourong felt a great sense of shame and regret.
This means I've started my period!
Why now of all times? We absolutely cannot get Lord Snow Fairy's carriage dirty!
Before Ji Minxiu could react, Yun Zhourong opened the car door and jumped out.
However, the intense pain left her weak and she collapsed onto the snow.
"Miss Yun, what's wrong with you?"
Ji Minxiu was shocked and quickly stepped forward to help the person up. "Did you eat something bad?"
Yun Zhourong was in so much pain that her eyes were brimming with tears. She wanted to explain but was too ashamed to speak, so she just kept shaking her head.
Ji Minxiu, seeing her flushed face and hesitant expression, suddenly guessed what was going on and tentatively asked, "Are you... are you menstruating?"
Now, Yun Zhourong was so embarrassed that she wanted to dig a hole and crawl into it right there.
Because she was weak from a young age, her menstrual cycle was irregular, often only occurring once every few months.
That's why I was so caught off guard this time.
Seeing her reaction, Ji Minxiu understood and felt somewhat embarrassed as well.
This was his first time dealing with girls and such matters, but he remained relatively calm.
She reassured him, "Don't be nervous. It's normal for girls to have their periods. There's no need to feel ashamed. You'll be able to talk about it openly in the future. You can't catch a cold now. Go wait in the car. I'll go back and prepare the things you need."
"You...you prepared this for me?" Ji Minxiu's words shocked Yun Zhourong, who stared wide-eyed.
He's a grown man, how could he prepare such intimate items for a woman? Doesn't he feel any resistance?
“Yes, who else can help you now besides me?” Ji Min said matter-of-factly.
Yun Zhourong was taken aback by that attitude, but still shook her head and said, "But...but the car will get dirty...I'll just wait outside. I won't be cold wearing so many clothes."
Seeing that Yun Zhou was clearly in so much pain that she was sweating profusely, yet still so sensible, Ji Minxiu was at a loss for words, unable to express the feelings in his heart.
So he said firmly, "Putting aside whether it's cold or not, I'm not comfortable leaving you alone in this desolate place in the middle of the night."
