"All right."
Seeing that Xiao Fangyun was sincere, Su Nan did not refuse considering that he had not eaten anything except for breakfast yesterday and was now starving.
After finishing the egg in a few bites, Su Nan looked at Xiao Fangyun pitifully, indicating to her that he was not full.
The latter was stunned, and seeing Su Nan's pale face, he became more and more upset, and even began to blame his brother for being so careless that he actually scared such a beautiful girl.
Yesterday she was still wondering why someone could be frightened to the point of rolling down the hillside, but when she saw Su Nan's people, she suddenly understood. No wonder, no wonder.
"My mother is cooking. We'll be ready to eat soon." Xiao Fangyun understood, scratched her head and spoke to comfort her, staring at Su Nan with her big eyes, as if she could never look at him enough.
When she helped Su Zhiqing change clothes yesterday, she realized that there really is someone who is white from the inside out, and that every part of her body is soft and tender, with a curvy figure and an unbelievable good figure.
Xiao Fangyun subconsciously touched her face and adjusted the corner of her clothes uncomfortably.
"Thank you." Su Nan smiled, her eyes curved, and she looked at Xiao Fangyun, her eyes flickered, and she said dryly, "You're welcome."
"By the way, I still have some luggage at the educated youth camp. I can't move around easily now. Can you help me get it?" Su Nan suddenly thought of this. She couldn't live in someone else's house for free, right? She was not someone who liked to take advantage of others.
The day she left Shanghai, Su's father and mother were afraid that she would not have enough food and warm clothes in the countryside, so they gave her a lot of money and tickets. She had no place to spend it along the way, and until now it has been kept unopened in a corner of her space, which can be used as food expenses.
If she hadn't been afraid that she would scare people by conjuring a bunch of money out of thin air and be caught as a monster, she would have taken out the bills and given them to Xiao Fangyun long ago.
Hearing this, Xiao Fangyun slapped her forehead as if she had just remembered something, took out a box from the floor at the end of the bed, handed it to Su Nan, and asked, "Are you talking about this?"
Seeing the familiar wooden box, Su Nan nodded vigorously and asked curiously, "Who sent this?"
"Zhou Zhiqing and a female comrade brought it here yesterday. You were still asleep at that time." Xiao Fangyun sat on a chair, put the box on her legs, and helped Su Nan, who was unable to move, to open the box.
Inside were neatly folded clothes and toiletries of various colors, as well as a box of candy and vanishing cream that Su Nan had brought from Shanghai.
Su Nan casually flipped through the things she usually brought with her and saw that they were all there. She knew at a glance that Liu Yu had packed them for her, so she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and no longer had to trouble others to get her things.
He glanced at Xiao Fangyun and saw that she was staring at her toes with her head down. She was very obedient and had no intention of wanting to know what was in her box. He felt even more fond of this little girl.
Su Nan reached into the pile of clothes, and when he took them out, there were already a few bills and food coupons in his palm.
"Sister Fang Yun, give this money to your mother. It will be my food allowance." Su Nan grabbed Xiao Fangyun's hand that was holding the box and forcefully stuffed the things into her hand.
"Su Zhiqing, what are you doing? Zhou Zhiqing has paid for your meals. We can't take your money anymore."
Xiao Fangyun has been helping with housework all year round. She is naturally stronger than Su Nan, who grew up in a pampered environment. After just a few visits, she stuffed the money back.
"Ah? Zhou Zhiqing, Zhou Rang?" Ten thousand "whys" flew through Su Nan's mind. He opened his mouth in disbelief, his pearly teeth slightly exposed, his eyes suddenly brightened, and his expression changed several times.
Zhou Rang is a wealthy man, does this count as supporting her?
Ahem, what was he thinking? Maybe he was just paying for it. When he came to see her, she would have to ask him about it.
"Yes, it's the tall and handsome boy who came with my brother to send you here yesterday." Xiao Fangyun helped her close the box, and explained it in detail for fear that she would not believe it.
Su Nan blinked her long eyelashes, smiled deeply, and nodded.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside. Su Nan and Xiao Fangyun turned their heads curiously to look over.
"I'll go out and take a look." Xiao Fangyun put the box back in its place, then opened the door and walked out.
Su Nan, who loved to watch the fun, could only stay in bed due to his "leg injury" and watch Xiao Fangyun leave.
Although she couldn't see, she could hear, so she pricked up her ears and moved her body as close to the door as possible, hoping to hear more clearly.
In the Xiao family's yard, Xiao's mother Cuiping, wearing an apron, stood with wet hands beside Xiao's father Xiao Heguo, who was sitting in the yard smoking a pipe. She looked embarrassed when facing the visitor and kept trying to wink at Xiao Heguo, but the latter seemed not to receive her glances and was only busy fiddling with his cigarette.
"Look, why is Zhou Zhiqing spending so much money? How can your aunt have the nerve to accept it?" Cuiping gave a dry laugh and said this, but her eyes couldn't help but glance at the several large bags in Zhou Rang's hands.
"It's nothing. This is to nourish Su Zhiqing." Zhou Rang was sweating profusely and his face did not look good. He was still wearing the blue and black shirt he wore yesterday.
"..." Cuiping choked and almost lost the smile on her face. She wiped the water stains on her hands from washing vegetables on her apron.
"Did Zhou Zhiqing go to the county town overnight?" Xiao Heguo took a puff of his pipe, squinted his eyes and glanced at the packages. He discovered that they contained goods that the commune's supply and marketing cooperative had no way to sell.
For example, the extremely hard-to-buy grass carp, pork and malted milk, these are good things that even city dwellers have to get up early and queue up to get.
Besides, Xiaojia Village is far away from the county town. There are only two buses every day, and the last bus had already ended yesterday, so Zhou Zhiqing’s only way to get to the county town was to walk.
Thinking of this, Xiao Heguo stared at Zhou Rang's face again and again. Wow, young people nowadays are really hardworking. They stay up late at night and walk such a long mountain road just to go to the county town to buy nourishing food for a little girl?
"Um."
Zhou Rang responded concisely, split the food in half, handed it to Cuiping, and explained, "Thank you for cooking for Su Zhiqing during this period. These are my little gifts."
Hearing this, Cuiping's face, which had been frozen just now, finally recovered. She weighed the weight and found it was not light. She couldn't help but smile in a friendly way, her eyes narrowed into slits, and she said politely, "Oh, it's all my duty."
"Do you want to go in and see Su Zhiqing? She just woke up this morning, and my daughter is in there with her. Hey, Yunyun, when did you come out?" Cuiping turned around and saw Xiao Fangyun, who had been standing at the door of the room for some time.
"I just heard some noise and came out to take a look." Xiao Fangyun nodded towards Zhou Rang as a greeting.
Zhou Rang rubbed his palm for a while, looked down at his trouser legs which were stained with mud from yesterday's work and his clothes which smelled of sweat from walking on the mountain road all night. He remembered how Su Nan had been so delicate that she had to spread a blanket when riding on the train before, and took a step back uncomfortably.
He still didn't go in.
