It was time for lunch (the Leng family also ate two meals in winter) when footsteps were heard outside the door again.
"Big... Leng You, um... it's time to eat, you... you... what do you want... to eat?" Leng Tiezhu had to step forward again at this time. No matter how scared he was, at least he could make a sound outside the door.
There was no response from inside.
"Leng You?" Leng Tiezhu bravely shouted again.
Still no response.
"Leng...eldest granddaughter?" Leng Tiezhu felt like peeing again. It was too damn scary. Who knew when the evil ghost would suddenly rush out and kill him.
"Who allowed you to call me your eldest granddaughter?" A strong gust of wind blew, and the cotton door curtain rolled up with a whistling sound. Leng You appeared in front of Leng Tiezhu with a murderous look in his eyes.
"Ah! I...I...I won't dare to do it again! I know...I know!" Leng Tiezhu was scared to death again. His legs went soft and he knelt on the ground, nodding repeatedly.
When he was almost dizzy and about to pass out, he noticed out of the corner of his eye that the door curtain had been dropped and Leng You was no longer there.
The cold iron pillar collapsed directly to the ground.
He thought it would be better to just stab him directly. It would be more comfortable than stabbing him one by one like this. He was almost scared.
However, the evil spirit didn't seem to want to eat, which made Leng Tiezhu feel relieved. He ate at the same table with the evil spirit...
That's not eating, that's eating their lives!
That’s right, evil ghosts cannot eat food. They eat paper money and incense ashes.
Thinking of this, Leng Tiezhu shivered three times in a row, feeling unwell all over. He turned around and fled into the house like a flash.
Not long after Leng Tiezhu left, there were two sudden knocks outside the door.
"Brother, why are you here?" Leng You opened the door immediately.
Xiang Wentian stood there against the afterglow of the setting sun, tall, straight, and safe.
"You must be hungry!" Xiang Wentian walked into the house, took out a cloth bag from his arms, put it on the edge of the kang, and opened the bag, revealing an aluminum lunch box inside.
"You haven't eaten yet!" Leng You knew that Xiang Wentian must have been hiding in the dark to protect her all day because he was worried about her. Although she had repeatedly told him not to worry and just wait for her to come back home.
"Yes! Together." Xiang Wentian nodded.
It was exactly as Leng You thought. Because he was worried about Leng You, he had been observing him secretly since Leng You went out, so that he could rush out to protect him the first time Leng You was in danger.
It was not until dinner time that he saw that Leng You was temporarily safe, and then he quickly returned to Wen Jiuyue, took the food that Wen Jiuyue had already prepared, and hurried back immediately.
Xiang Wentian took out two lunch boxes from the bag and opened them. One was filled with rice, and the other was filled with pheasant stewed with mushrooms. Because they were in his arms, they were still steaming. There were also two small spoons in the lunch box.
These are all delicious cold.
"Smells good!" After tossing and turning for most of the day, Leng You was really a little hungry.
"Eat!" Xiang Wentian scooped a spoonful of rice and brought it to Leng You's mouth.
"Yeah!" Leng You nodded, and obediently opened his mouth to put the rice into his mouth.
Then, a piece of boneless pheasant was handed to her.
"Open your mouth!" Xiang Wentian said in a soft voice.
"Ah!" Leng You obediently opened his mouth to catch it again.
Xiang Wentian: “…”
With a smile in his eyes, he gently stroked Leng You's head.
Seeing that Leng You had swallowed the food in his mouth, the second spoonful of rice was brought over.
"Brother, you eat too." Leng You picked up the small spoon without thinking, scooped a spoonful of rice, and stuffed it into Xiang Wentian's mouth. At the same time, he opened his mouth and held the rice that Xiang Wentian fed him.
After feeding him, he scooped up a piece of meat and stuffed it into Xiang Wentian's mouth.
Xiang Wentian did not resist at all to Leng You feeding him. On the contrary, he felt it was very fresh, because since he could remember, he had never been fed by his parents or brothers and sisters, let alone a second person. Leng You was the only one.
In this way, the two fed each other. Although they were in a special environment, they felt the food was extremely sweet and delicious.
After dinner, they threw all the pheasant bones into the fire to destroy them.
"Brother, aren't you leaving?" Seeing Xiang Wentian still sitting on the edge of the kang after putting away his lunch box, Leng You looked at him in confusion.
"I'll take you back to sleep later." Xiang Wentian would never leave Leng You here alone.
"I'm fine here, brother. You should have seen that they are scared to death during the day and dare not step out of the door at night, let alone come to me.
Oh... by the way, this is for you."
Leng You took out the small cloth bag containing money from a corner.
"Theirs?" Xiang Wentian didn't seem surprised as he could tell what was inside just from the appearance.
"All this was dirty money obtained by Leng Tiezhu." Leng You's voice was cold.
"How do you plan to deal with it?" Xiang Wentian had already guessed Leng You's thoughts.
"There are so many people who need help, but there are none in Daheishan Village." Leng You had already made plans in his mind when he received the money.
"Okay, leave it to me." Xiang Wentian raised his hand and rubbed Leng You's head again.
I am amazed and moved by this mind which is greater than that of most adults.
"Okay." This is exactly what Leng You thought.
"Go back!" Xiang Wentian persuaded Leng You again.
"Brother, I told you before that it would be more effective to utilize the time at night." Leng You had mentioned this to Xiang Wentian before, but was rejected by Xiang Wentian.
In his opinion, Leng You is still young, and such a young child needs to ensure adequate sleep, otherwise it will be bad for the body. At this time, he still holds this position:
"Children can't stay up late."
"In the past, they would often drive me out of the house at night and make me stand outside all night." Leng You said this in a light tone, as if he was talking about someone else's business.
Xiang Wentian: “…”
My heart suddenly tightened, and it felt like it was being pulled.
The coldness in his eyes gathered rapidly, and in the blink of an eye it had condensed into a ball, carrying a fierce and cold aura that could not be concealed.
"Brother, I'm fine. It's all over. They will never have such an opportunity again in the future." Leng You gently held one of Xiang Wentian's fingers.
The sky gradually darkened, and the house had low windows and small windows, so the light inside the house became even dimmer. Although Leng You could not see Xiang Wentian's expression clearly, she could clearly feel the coldness caused by her.
However, after the cold evil spirit pounced on her, it penetrated into a certain place in her heart and transformed into an indescribable warm current, silently washing over a corner of the glacier.
"I'll stay with you tonight." Xiang Wentian's attitude changed instantly.
"I'm alone..."
"Wait for me, I'll be there soon." Xiang Wentian stood up, took the lunch box and the bag of money that Leng You gave him, opened the door and looked outside, then disappeared outside the door.
