After applying the medicine and leaving a bamboo tube of water for Shitou, Luo Qiao and Lu Yichen returned to the village together.
Lu Yichen was silent for a long time before he said, "You are still young. Since you want to help Shitou, I should do it. I am more suitable than you, and the villagers will give me some face."
Luo Qiao looked at Lu Yichen with some surprise. At this moment, the two of them were not riding a bike, but were walking side by side on the road, pushing their bicycles.
Lu Yichen said: "But, can I make a small request?"
Luo Qiao said, "You say."
Lu Yichen said: "Can I have dinner with you?"
After hearing this, Luo Qiao actually didn't want to agree. After all, she had a secret, and she couldn't just want to eat something delicious and do it secretly. It was fine for one or two meals, but it would be too troublesome over a long period of time.
Lu Yichen said, "I can cook some spicy sauce, some stewed noodles, and porridge, but I can't cook anything else. After eating the food you cook, I can't eat the food I cook myself."
Afraid that Luo Qiao would feel burdened, he said, "Don't worry, the ingredients are mine. I just don't want to eat the food I cook anymore."
Luo Qiao also knew that if Lu Yichen was willing to come forward, it would save a lot of trouble.
After thinking for a while, he said, "Okay, I agree."
Lu Yichen was worried that walking too much would be bad for Luo Qiao's injured foot, so he said, "Let's ride a bike. Be careful not to hurt your foot again. You'd better pay more attention to yourself during this period."
Along the way, Luo Qiao also expressed her ideas, and Lu Yichen couldn't help but nodded in agreement. He thought about waiting and discussing the situation tomorrow and then coming to discuss it with Shi Tou. If Shi Tou agreed, Lu Yichen would do so.
The next day, Luo Qiao got up and cooked porridge. She had just finished practicing a set of boxing in the yard and was thinking about steaming an egg for Shitou when she heard someone coming. Soon, someone knocked on the door.
Luo Qiao asked: "Who is it?"
When Luo Qiao opened the door, she saw Li Xiulan standing outside with a basket, followed by four or five women.
Luo Qiao said, "Aunt, you guys got up really early."
Li Xiulan said, "Let's go in and talk."
Out of politeness, Luo Qiao said, "Then come in. I don't have anything to entertain you. How about I wash some cucumbers for you ladies?"
There happened to be some picked cucumbers in the basket in the yard. I washed three of them, broke them into two pieces and handed them to the aunts who came over.
Li Xiulan said while eating, "Luo Qiao, it's not easy for a little girl like you to live alone in the village. You saved my man's life. If you need anything in the future, just let me know and I will definitely help you."
Luo Qiao smiled faintly and said, "Aunt, please don't say that. I was just lucky. I just happened to know a little bit. It was mainly because Uncle Shunyi was lucky."
Li Xiulan ate a cucumber and pointed at the basket on the ground: "Luo Qiao, these are a little gift from me, you must accept them."
Looking at the seemingly large basket, Luo Qiao smiled and said, "I can't take the things. We all live in the same village. It's only right for us to lend a hand when we meet someone."
Li Xiulan said, "That won't do. You saved my man's life, so you are the savior of our Gao family. You must keep this thank you gift, otherwise we will be damned."
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Luo Qiao said, "It's okay, auntie. It's been so long since this happened, no one cares."
