Chapter 113: Showing Care and Inquiry (Part 3)
Jiang Zhiluo was suspicious. In the past, when she and Old Madam Cui set up stalls to do business, they didn't need Cui Hejin's help, as he was always in the school.
Could it be here at the stall today?
For some reason, Jiang Zhiluo had an indescribable feeling in her heart when she thought of Cui Hejin being here.
I clearly saw him this morning, so I shouldn't want to see him so soon.
Jiang Zhiluo wanted to go inside, but was pushed out by someone.
"No, hey, make way...make way!"
These women are too crazy.
Every time Jiang Zhiluo tried to squeeze in, she was squeezed out.
"Hey, this is my stall."
The women and young ladies were chattering away, surrounding the place in three layers, and the number of people was increasing.
"It's right here. It's so beautiful, really."
"Not to mention the food is delicious, but he is handsome. His fingers are slender and white like jade. Especially when he uses his hands to hold the pot cake and hand it to you, it is enough to make you fall in love with him."
"Oh, even in coarse linen clothes, you are so elegant, like a god. If you wear those gorgeous clothes, you will charm all the ladies."
"I feel like my heart is about to jump out of my chest when he looks at me..."
Jiang Zhiluo listened to these words and looked at the crazy expressions of the crowd, and the corners of her mouth twitched violently.
If Jiang Zhiluo really used all her strength to pull everyone away, she could indeed squeeze in.
But these people are all customers, and they all come around to buy the pot cakes from her stall. She can't be so tactless.
She has seen the modern star-chasing scene, but she never expected that no matter what era, people like to look at good-looking people.
Just when Jiang Zhiluo was standing on the periphery and a little distracted, Cui Hejin had extremely sharp ears and seemed to hear Zhiluo's voice among the crowd of voices.
Cui Hejin paused what he was doing. He was tall, and when he looked up, he saw Jiang Zhiluo outside.
Cui Hejin's expression changed and she said, "Mom, I'm going out for a while."
Old Madam Cui was confused and saw Cui Hejin walking out.
The crowd automatically made way for him.
Cui Hejin came to Jiang Zhiluo in an instant and asked softly, "Are you back?"
Jiang Zhiluo nodded and said, "Yeah, I'm back. Why are you here at the stall?"
She was planning to bring him lunch at noon, but she didn't expect that something happened at the clinic, which delayed her and she came back a little late.
By this time, classes at Graphite Academy had already ended.
To be honest, Cui Hejin was still worried about Jiang Zhiluo, so he wanted to go see her after class.
He went to the market first, but didn't find her, so he came to the dock.
He knew that if they didn't set up their stall at the market, they would probably set up it at the dock.
I didn't see her when I came over, and only Cui Hejin knew how she felt at that moment.
Cui Hejin's lips moved, and she was about to say something when she suddenly smelled something and looked down at the bloodstains on her gray clothes.
Although it was inconspicuous, Cui Hejin still saw it.
Cui Hejin's expression suddenly changed, "Are you injured?"
At this moment, Cui Hejin's voice was as cold as frost and snow, icy and dangerous.
Jiang Zhiluo looked down at her clothes. There were some bloodstains, but they were not noticeable at all.
I didn’t expect Cui Hejin to be so sharp-eyed.
"Ah, it wasn't me who was injured, it was someone else's blood. I helped treat the injury."
After hearing these words, Cui Hejin felt a little relieved.
But I still took a closer look and made sure she was okay before I could truly breathe a sigh of relief.
…
The group of women and girls around widened their eyes when they saw this scene.
No way?
Such a handsome young man actually showed concern for a young lady.
He looked so cold and lonely, like a cube of ice.
Who would have thought he could be so gentle?
Just now, a few familiar young ladies were discussing that people like him might be naturally aloof.
I don’t know what kind of young lady he would be willing to take care of.
They couldn't help but think about it in their hearts.
Who would have thought that this young master would be different.
They envy this young lady so much.
The young lady looked about fourteen or fifteen years old, and was also wearing coarse linen clothes, but she was very pretty, delicate and exquisite.
She's the kind of woman who makes you feel sweet and soft just by looking at her.
"This is Miss Jiang."
"Everyone knows each other"
"I don't know her. I bought something she made at the market before. Her chive dumplings were delicious."
"Could it be that she made the potcake?"
"The people setting up the stall are a mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law. These two are probably a young couple."
"Ah, this young master is actually married and has a wife."
Although the onlookers were somewhat surprised, some young ladies looked at Jiang Zhiluo with envy.
However, many women couldn't help laughing when they saw the two men.
It is a pleasure to watch the sweet couple.
Jiang Zhiluo felt the gazes of everyone around her, and quickly tugged at Cui Hejin's sleeve, saying softly, "Have you eaten?"
It was rare to see her looking a little shy, so a smile flashed across Cui Hejin's eyes and he said softly, "Yeah, I ate two pot cakes."
"Eat first. They'll be sold out soon. Go home and rest early."
Jiang Zhiluo said, "I'll go over and help mother first.
Jiang Zhiluo went over to help, Cui Hejin followed, and the crowd continued to gather around, and those who wanted to buy Guokui bought it.
"Hey, young master, this is your little lady."
Cui Hejin said softly, "Yeah."
"Your little wife is really beautiful, with fair and beautiful skin."
Some women looked at Jiang Zhiluo and couldn't help but praise her.
Everyone likes beautiful things.
Jiang Zhiluo was indeed born with fair skin, and even though she lived in the countryside, she could never get tanned no matter how much she was exposed to the sun.
Madam Cui said, "My daughter-in-law is very good. She is capable, beautiful, filial, and considerate to my son. She is the boss of everything in the family. There is nothing to say about her."
Mrs. Cui said as she looked at the pot cake.
Everyone responded with a few words, bought the pot cakes and left.
There were a lot of people there just now, so a lot of pot cakes were sold at once.
They were all sold out in a short while.
After selling and packing up, Cui Hejin returned to the school, while Jiang Zhiluo and Old Madam Cui pushed the small food cart home.
After returning home, Jiang Zhiluo took out twenty taels of silver and told Mrs. Cui about the rescue.
Mrs. Cui was also very happy to hear this.
Mrs. Cui first boiled some water. When it was done, she said, "Zhiluo, I've boiled some water. Go wash up."
Mrs. Cui did not notice any blood on Jiang Zhiluo's body.
However, when closing the stall, Cui Hejin asked her to go home and boil some water so that Zhiluo could wash up.
He also said that Zhiluo might be tired and asked her to go home and rest for a while.
Mrs. Cui guessed that treating the patient might be very hard work, so she didn't think much about it.
Jiang Zhiluo really likes cleanliness and was originally thinking of taking a shower to freshen her body.
But she usually takes a bath before going to bed at night, and Mrs. Cui won't boil hot water for her at noon.
"Mom, why are you thinking of boiling water for me?"
"It's all He Jin's instructions. He's actually the most attentive person."
Mrs. Cui knew her son well. Although he had a cold temperament, he was gentle and considerate to the people he cared about.
