Chapter 271 The Girl Who Moved Zixu
"Thanks."
Li Sihui stood up and thanked him with a faint smile on her lips. She knew now that sometimes it is better to pretend to be pitiful than to be tough. She had learned one more thing.
She had a good memory and remembered the way to Zhou Zixu's house clearly, and soon she was standing at his door.
“Dang dang dang.”
She knocked on the door twice and waited quietly.
"Come in!"
It was Aunt Su who opened the door. She noticed the clothes on Li Sihui at a glance. They were her handicraft.
Zixu could ask her for help in making clothes, so this girl must be very important in his heart.
After Li Sihui entered the house, she stood at the door and looked inside. Aunt Su found slippers for her. She hesitated for a moment and changed her cloth shoes.
Aunt Su noticed that her socks were patched up with patches. Her eyes flashed and she let Li Sihui into the living room.
"Master, this girl is looking for Zixu,"
She gave Mr. Zhou a wink, meaning that this was the girl I was talking about, the girl who made Zixu fall in love.
"Grandpa, this is the roe deer meat I sent you, and this jar of honey is also for you."
When facing Mr. Zhou, Li Sihui behaved very respectfully and placed the wild honey she took out from the space capsule on the table.
Grandpa needed this honey urgently last time, I hope he can use it this time too.
"Thank you. Please sit down."
Mr. Zhou smiled warmly and pointed to the sofa and asked Li Sihui to sit down.
"Xiao Su, pour some tea for this little girl."
Aunt Su looked at the pot of meat and remembered that there was sand in the meat last time. After taking it to the kitchen, she checked it carefully and found that there was indeed nothing in it, so she felt relieved.
When I brought out the tea, I saw that the old man was already chatting with Li Sihui.
"Girl! Why are you so polite?"
"Grandpa, last time I exchanged honey for your family's food, have you forgotten me, the fat girl who the doctor said would not live long?"
When Li Sihui was talking to the old man, she had a smile on her face the whole time and seemed to have a very good temper.
The old man had been observing her secretly. When the girl entered the room, her face was cold and her eyes were even colder, giving people a feeling of aloofness. Her expression was a bit similar to Zixu's, and she seemed to have a very bad temper.
But when talking to me, his attitude is always respectful. I wonder if it’s because of Zixu?
When the old man heard Li Sihui mention the fat girl who exchanged food with her, even though he was knowledgeable, he couldn't help but be surprised.
"It's only been over a month. How come you've changed so much? I remember Doctor Tang said you didn't have long to live. I think you only have a year to live?"
Mr. Zhou had a good memory. He felt very sympathetic towards the fat girl at the time, and her behavior surprised him, so he kept her in his mind.
"Yes, it was the prescription given by Doctor Tang that cured my illness. By the way, the medicine was given to me by Zhou Zixu, who also saved Zhao Jinchen."
When Li Sihui saw that the old man still remembered her, her eyes suddenly lit up with joy, the smile on her lips became more intense, and she talked more.
It felt like going back to the time when she was with her grandfather. At that time, she was protected by her grandfather and had no worries all day long.
But after he died, there was no one to protect her anymore and she became a lonely orphan.
"Zixu is a kind-hearted child. Don't be fooled by his nonchalant appearance. In fact, he is using it to hide the pain in his heart."
Upon hearing that his grandson had saved the girl, the old man said something with emotion, and he said it on purpose for Li Sihui to hear.
Since his grandson cares so much about her, this girl might be able to untie the knot in his heart.
When Li Sihui heard what the old man said, she couldn't help but look at him. What kind of pain could Zhou Zixu, who was smiling all day long, suffer?
