Chapter 12: The Smell of Vinegar

"Master?" Ling Yu's eyes turned red instantly, and he looked at Xue Ning with grievances, "Don't you want me?" ”

Xue Ning didn't answer him, just looked at the man who was full of shock, and asked, "How is it, do you agree?" ”

The man was stunned for a while and finally came back to his senses, he looked at Ling Yu, who was red-eyed, and said with a slight suspicion: "You...... Why do you trust him to me? ”

"Because you're a trustworthy person." Xue Ning paused lightly and replied without hesitation.

She had always been very accurate in seeing people, and when she saw this man for the first time, she felt that he was definitely not an ordinary bandit, and what he said afterwards confirmed her suspicions.

The bandits' faces were sallow, and there were even holes in their clothes, which showed that their lives were indeed difficult, but even so, the men did not want to hurt the women and children.

The most important thing is that when he saw so much money, there was not the slightest greed in his expression, but he was full of anxiety and helplessness, as if the money was a pressure for him, not a fortune.

Bandits and thieves are also half of the same peers, and the danger factor is higher.

She has so much money with her, it's not much use, anyway, she needs money, and it can't be obtained in minutes, so it's better to help these people.

The word "trust" made the man's expression stunned, and he was stunned: "But...... But I'm just a bandit. ”

When Xue Ning heard this, the smile on her face became even worse, "In this world, there are too many things that you have to do, I believe that you will embark on this business, there must be your difficulties and hardships, even if it is a bandit, not everyone is bad." ”

With consternation and gratitude in his eyes, the man stared straight at Xue Ning, as if he wanted to see through the face under the black veil, and after a moment of silence, he hugged his fists and said: "In Xialu Shaoyang, there is only a ten-year-old little daughter under my knees, and I will definitely treat the little boy as my own son and train him to grow up." ”

Lu Shaoyang's words were full of firmness, Xue Ning nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Ling Yu, only to see that his eyes were red, but he bit his lips tightly, trying not to let himself cry.

"Xiao Yu." Xue Ning crouched down in front of him and reached out to hold his shoulders, "Do you believe me?" ”

Ling Yu looked up at Xue Ning, her red eyes were full of grievances, but she still nodded, "I believe." ”

"Then you trust the choices I make for you." Xue Ning patted him on the shoulder and said solemnly: "I said before that people will have a lot of things to do, I have too many things now, and I don't know what will happen tomorrow today, so it is definitely more suitable for you to follow Mr. Lu than to follow me." ”

Ling Yu stared at her for a long time, and then said weakly, "Then will you still come to see me?" ”

After wandering outside for three whole years, Ling Yu tasted the indifference of human affection, Xue Ning was the first person to help him and give him warmth, so even if she wanted to give up on herself now, he would not have any complaints.

"Yes." Xue Ning nodded and promised, "If you feel that you are strong enough, ask Mr. Lu to leave the word 'feather' under the fox sign, and as long as I see it, I will definitely come back to see you." ”

After Ling Yu heard this, he bit his lower lip, and then nodded firmly, "Okay!" ”

At this time, the two of them didn't know that it was because of Xue Ning's decision that Ling Yu's "good" word would completely change his life.

Xue Ning stood up and said to Lu Shaoyang: "Mr. Lu, Xiao Yu will leave it to you, and the matter of finding someone is also troublesome to you, I am waiting for your good news." ”

Lu Shaoyang hugged his fists again and said: "Lu must live up to the trust!" ”

Nodding, Xue Ning took Xiao Feng on the side, "Then we'll go first, and we'll have a period later." ”

was about to turn around, but she felt someone pull the hem of her clothes, and when she looked back, it was Ling Yu.

Before she could speak, Ling Yu hesitated and said, "Master, are you ...... Can you show me what you look like? ”

Xue Ning was stunned, and Xiao Feng also looked up at her suspiciously, curious in her heart if she would agree.

After hesitating for a moment, Xue Ning actually nodded and said, "Okay." ”

After saying that, she slowly took off the black hat......

*

Because of the bandit incident, they were delayed for a little time, and although Xue Ning had already advanced at full speed, when it was dark, they still couldn't get out of the last mountain forest.

In desperation, she had no choice but to park the carriage in a place that seemed relatively safe, and then lit a fire in front of the carriage.

Pulling Xiao Feng to sit down in front of the fire, Xue Ning gave him a little dry food, and said, "Let's eat something first, the temperature will be very cold at night, and you will go to sleep in the carriage later." ”

"What about you?" Xiao Feng blinked with a pair of big eyes and looked at Xue Ning with a puzzled expression.

Xue Ning smiled and said, "I have to watch the fire outside, firstly, to keep warm, and secondly, to prevent wild beasts from approaching." ”

Because there were only two of them, Xue Ning didn't wear a hat, and when she smiled, Xiao Feng was stunned.

If it weren't for the scars on the face, this face would be extremely delicate, which is a pity.

Along the way, although she was using medicine, how could such a serious wound be cured by ordinary medicine?

Realizing his gaffe, Xiao Feng looked away a little uncomfortably, looked around and said, "There shouldn't be any beasts here, I think you better go to the carriage." ”

It's so cold outside, what if I get sick again?

It's just that he didn't say the latter sentence.

"Beasts are elusive, so let's be cautious." Xue Ning shook her head and filled the fire with a dead branch.

Xiao Feng didn't say anything more, just silently nibbled on the steamed buns, and suddenly his eyes rolled and he said, "Mother, why don't you take Ling Yu in?" ”

Xue Ning glanced at him and said angrily, "I'm afraid he will be bullied by you." ”

Xiao Feng didn't believe this reason, and gave her a roll of his eyes, but Xue Ning sighed when she heard it, and continued: "My current situation does not allow me to have too much sympathy, and I have more important things to do, it is not appropriate for him to follow me." ”

After listening to this, Xiao Feng seemed to understand something, pursed his lips tightly, and said after a while: "Then what if...... If I weren't your son, would you take me like this? ”

Looking at his cautious and tentative appearance, Xue Ning laughed, "Haha, you little ghost, in fact, this is what you really want to ask, right?" ”

Xiao Feng didn't answer, just stared at Xue Ning for a moment, waiting for her answer.

He admits that he cares a lot about Xuening's answer.
