Chapter 48 Need a sewing machine?
When he found that Su Mingyue was not angry, he breathed a sigh of relief. A smile appeared on his face again, and his laughter echoed in the air.
In fact, Su Mingyue knew very well that in this village, it was common for children to climb trees in the mountains and fish in the river. Even so, she couldn't help but feel a little worried when she thought that Su Qingfeng, who was so young, had already started climbing trees.
However, she also knew that she couldn't stay at home and watch over her brother all the time, so she could only tell him earnestly, "Qingfeng, I'm not forbidding you to climb the tree, but you must be more careful and don't be careless, okay? If you accidentally fall down and get hurt, you'll be the one to suffer! Got it?"
Su Qingfeng replied: "Got it, sister!"
Su Mingyue put all the bird eggs in the pot and boiled them, and braised the meat. The brother and sister had another delicious meal. It was a pity that Su Mingyue's mental power did not increase at all. With the recovery of her mental power, more and more meat was needed to enhance her mental power. After eating one or two meals, her mental power increased very slowly, but her current 1S-level mental power was barely enough for the time being. If she wanted to improve it further, it would only take time.
The next day, Su Mingyue went to the old house.
As soon as I entered the old house, I saw my aunt Zhou Hehua drying clothes in the yard. Zhou Hehua was a little plump and always had a friendly smile on her face. At this time, she raised her head and her eyes fell on Su Mingyue, with a glimmer of joy in her eyes.
Zhou Hehua put down the clothes in her hands and asked Su Mingyue with a smile: "Mingyue, are you here to see me specifically? Is there anything?"
Su Mingyue smiled and nodded, and replied softly: "There is something, aunt, do you want a sewing machine? I have a friend who needs money urgently. Her sewing machine is new and has never been used. If you want it, you can get it for only 120 yuan."
When Zhou Hehua heard this, her eyes lit up instantly, and she asked in surprise, "Really? Mingyue! Oh, that's great! But... that's not right. Logically, Mingyi should also know all the friends you know. Why haven't I heard Mingyi mention this?"
Facing Zhou Hehua's doubts, Su Mingyue quickly explained: "Aunt, my friend is quite special, Mingyi doesn't know her."
However, after hearing this, Zhou Hehua's face suddenly became serious, with a hint of worry in her eyes. She lowered her voice and asked, "Mingyue...you...could it be that you met this person on the black market?"
Su Mingyue burst into laughter at Zhou Hehua's guess. She waved her hands and said, "Aunt, you have such a rich imagination! Of course not, don't make blind guesses!"
Su Mingyue looked at Zhou Hehua's face full of suspicion, sighed helplessly, and briefly told her about the arrest of the human trafficker today. Of course, she only gave a general idea, but did not mention the fact that the human trafficker was skilled and had a knife.
As Su Mingyue described, Zhou Hehua's face became paler and paler, and her hands unconsciously clenched the corners of her clothes. Although Su Mingyue said it simply, Zhou Hehua didn't believe that human traffickers would be as easy to catch as Su Mingyue said. Which human trafficker is not a ruthless character? If not, how could they do such a thing?
When Zhou Hehua thought of this, she grabbed Su Mingyue and circled around her anxiously, looking her up and down eagerly, afraid of missing any hidden injuries.
Su Mingyue understood Zhou Hehua's worry and concern at the moment, and cooperated with her very obediently to turn her body so that Zhou Hehua could carefully check whether she was safe.
Finally, after Zhou Hehua confirmed that Su Mingyue in front of her was unharmed, her heart finally settled down a little, but she was still a little worried.
Zhou Hehua pretended to be angry and raised her hand to pat Su Mingyue's arm gently, then complained, "You, why are you so rash! Arresting human traffickers is no joke, if you are not careful..." Before she finished speaking, her voice trembled slightly.
However, Zhou Hehua's eyes immediately revealed a hint of pride that was hard to detect. "But, my Mingyue actually has the courage and spirit to face the evildoers. It is really admirable!"
At this point, Zhou Hehua's face showed a trace of worry again, "It's just that you are lucky not to be injured this time, but you can't guarantee that you will be so lucky next time. If you encounter a similar situation next time, you must not rush forward to catch people. If you get hurt, you will be in pain, you know? Oh, it really makes me worry!"
When Zhou Hehua thought about this, she secretly said in her heart: No, I can't let Mingyue be like this. What if she gets hurt next time? If it's more serious, how will she explain to Mingyue's mother when she goes to hell?
So she pretended to be angry and hit Su Mingyue's arm, then said to Su Mingyue with a sullen face: "Mingyue, this is really too dangerous. You must not do this again next time. There are men to catch bad guys, not a little girl like you, understand?"
Having said this, she was afraid that Su Mingyue would be sad to hear this, so she said to Su Mingyue gently; "Of course, as an elder, I am very proud of what you did today, but I am also afraid that you will be hurt. If you are hurt, not to mention us adults, Qingfeng will definitely be scared. So, next time you encounter such a thing, you should stay away from it, okay!"
Su Mingyue heard Zhou Hehua say these words to her so earnestly, and knew that Zhou Hehua was doing it for her own good, so she said to Zhou Hehua earnestly: "Aunt, don't worry, I'm very strong!" Just after saying this, she saw that Zhou Hehua's originally gentle expression turned bad again, and she hurriedly continued: "Next time I will definitely not take direct action, I will hide far away and call for help, okay! Don't be angry!"
Zhou Hehua said, "Mingyue, Auntie is not angry. She is just worried that you will get hurt. If you meet that real bad guy with a family, what if there is an accident, how can I explain to your mother? Before your mother passed away, she took my hand and entrusted you to me, so Auntie doesn't want you to get hurt, understand!"
Su Mingyue said obediently: "Aunt, I understand now, and I will never do this again. Speaking of this sewing machine, it actually belongs to the friend of the person I rescued before. Her friend bought a new sewing machine and never used it. It just so happened that I thought of my eldest brother getting married soon.
