"But I'll get moldy if I stay inside any longer. Perhaps Mingxi thinks I'm not feeling well and that going out is a hassle for you? Then let's go back."
Mingxi immediately panicked: "No, no, that's not what I meant! I just... I just..."
He stammered for a moment, then, under Hua Changle's gaze, managed to utter a sentence:
"I don't want them to see you."
"Why?" Hua Changle asked, puzzled.
Mingxi repeated, "I don't want others to see you."
You are mine.
He didn't say the second half of the sentence.
It seems Xiao Le doesn't like him enough yet. If I were to tell her rashly, it would scare her and make her sick. Xiao Le is still very fragile right now and gets sick easily.
Hua Changle didn't know what he was thinking, but she could sense that his eyes were exceptionally serious.
How should I put it?
To use an imperfect analogy, it's like—
A big dog was guarding its meaty bone. She was the meaty bone!
"I just want to learn more about the village. After all, I came from so far away, I can't just come here and not see anything, that would be such a waste!"
Hua Changle had a sudden inspiration, "Besides, I've never seen what your altar looks like! I want to see it!"
Mingxi's eyes immediately lit up: "I'll take you there!"
"Okay!" Hua Changle smiled so much that her eyes crinkled.
Then……
That's outrageous!
Altar! Altar! Altar!
Hearing this name, Hua Changle never expected that he would find someone's home while searching for a sacred altar!
Can you believe it? Every household in Jinchan Village has a sacred altar!
The so-called altar is just like a shrine in one's own home!
In this family's home, in a corner of the bedroom, they casually built a platform out of wood, and on it, they made a simple, rectangular pavilion, which was covered with a few tattered cloths, so it was impossible to see what was inside.
Who would dare to offer such a careless sacrifice to a deity?
This is so down-to-earth!
No! We've gone off-topic! This is the altar?!
Hua Changle looked at the corner with suspicion. Mingxi stood beside her with a smile. Behind them stood a villager uncle with a sinister expression and a wary look.
"Alright, this isn't anything special, let's look at the next one!"
Mingxi pulled Hua Changle away, completely ignoring the owner of the house.
Hua Changle smiled awkwardly at the uncle and obediently let himself be pulled out.
As the villager watched the two walk away, his sinister and wary gaze fixed on Hua Changle, his expression gradually revealing a mixture of shock and delight.
"It's...a woman..."
