"Ah Wu is an orphan in our village, his parents died early, and he is the only child in the family."

"It's also a sin, such a young child, you have to feed yourself."

"In previous years, it was better, but this year everyone's life is not good, who can help him?"

If it doesn't rain heavily, there will be a real drought here. The scorching sun is like a fire, the rice is half scorched, and when the time comes, it will be purgatory on earth.

Xu Yuan hasn't opened the valley yet, so she naturally needs to eat. She was a little glad that she had brought a storage bag.

Before coming to the secret realm, for the sake of safety, she put a lot of things in the storage bag, and prepared a lot of everything for food and drink.

Even the poison took a lot of it.

Everything is in place, and now we just need to know how to get through this secret realm.

But the priority now is to find a place to stay.

"Village chief, is there any vacant house in the village? I'm tired of walking these days, can you let me stay in the village for a few days? ”

The village chief was a little surprised, but he didn't understand that a girl must be tired after driving for so long.

"Empty house, let me think." The village chief thought about it carefully, and everyone's houses were not big, and there were many people, so there were no empty houses.

Who doesn't have a lot of family? There really is, the village chief suddenly thought that there was only one person in that family.

After thinking about it, the village chief said: "There are really few people in our village who have an empty house, but there is a family, there are not many people, and there must be free at home." ”

The village chief rubbed his hands and said a little embarrassedly: "Girl, the family I'm talking about is Ah Wu's family, and he is a little child at home." ”

"I'm really sorry, girl, I thought that when you lived there, you could take care of him by the way."

As if he felt that he was too much, the village chief said: "Ah Wu is very well-behaved, and there will be no trouble at all." It's just that we really don't have time to care about him these days. ”

After speaking, the village chief looked at Xu Yuan cautiously, this girl must be a young lady from a big family, I don't know if I can agree?

He is really powerless, and if there is someone who can take care of Ah Wu, he will be relieved a lot.

Xu Yuan could feel the kindness of the village chief, he was so cautious, all for the sake of a child who was not related by blood.

"Of course, village chief, I live in his house, so naturally I can't live in vain, don't worry, this should be a reward."

The village chief's eyebrows and eyes suddenly relaxed, his worries were solved, and his mood was much better.

"Okay, girl, I'll take you to his house now."

Xu Yuan's gaze swept over the hidden corner of the wall not far away, and smiled, "Thank you, village chief." ”

Under the scorching sun, the village chief led Xu Yuan to Ah Wu's house. His home is on the east side of the village, which is considered to be the edge of the village.

It is still a simple thatched house, although it is simple, but the roof and courtyard wall are well repaired, and it is still okay to shelter from the wind and rain.

The village chief said, "We can't help much, so we can only help this kid repair the house." ”

He raised his hand and knocked on the door, "Ah Wu, are you in the house?" ”

Soon someone came to open the door, and a little boy opened the door and was a little surprised to see the village chief and Xu Yuan.

"Uncle Village Chief, come in."

The village chief touched his head, "Ah Wu, how are you doing?" ”

"Ah Wu has been doing well lately, thank you Uncle Village Chief for your concern."

Ah Wu looked at Xu Yuan, he had never seen her before, and besides, she looked completely different from them.

When they entered the courtyard, the village chief told Ah Wu what had happened.

"Do you think it's okay? Ah Wu. "Although Ah Wu's child is still young, he has an idea.

Ah Wu was very well-behaved, "Naturally, I will take care of this sister." ”

Xu Yuanxin said: Children, who takes care of whom?

But this kid is quite interesting.

Xu Yuan also reached out and rubbed his head, "Then thank you Ah Wu, my sister will rely on you to take care of it." ”

The village chief was very happy, he saw that this girl must be a kind-hearted person, and she must have some ability to walk such a long way by herself.

He was afraid that there would be chaos in a few days, and if someone took care of Ah Wu, he could also breathe a sigh of relief.

"Then I'll go first, and I'll come back to you another day."

"The village chief walks slowly."

After sending off the village chief, only Xu Yuan and Ah Wu were left in the courtyard.

She decided to take the initiative to talk, "Ah Wu, how old are you?" ”

Ah Wu changed his well-behaved just now, and said coldly: "Ten years old." ”

Yo, there are two more faces.

"What's the matter, don't you want me to live here?"

Ah Wu didn't answer directly, but asked rhetorically: "Then why do you want to live here?" ”

"Look at your appearance, what should the eldest lady of the town do, running to our poor and remote places?"

Seeing that his face was serious and his lips were pursed, Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows, "Little friend, I thought you knew all this." ”

After understanding the meaning of this, Ah Wu was a little surprised, "You found me?" ”

Although it was a question, his small expression was very affirmative.

"Kid, you're not good at peek-a-boo."

Ah Wu was a little angry, "Who played peek-a-boo with you?" ”

Xu Yuan suddenly had a feeling of bullying children, this was not good, she reflected on herself.

"Why did you promise the village chief to take care of me?"

Without waiting for Xu Yuan to speak, he said again: "Is it because you pity me?" ”

Xu Yuan said: "If it's because I pity you, don't you want me to take care of it?" ”

Ah Wu snorted coldly, "Why not?" Isn't that the remuneration for housing? ”

"Then why the hell did you say yes?"

Xu Yuan approached him and said seriously: "What else can it be?" Isn't it just the reward? ”

Ah Wu had nothing to say, turned around and went into the house.

Xu Yuan was very uncomfortable, she really wanted to laugh.

She could see that this was a child with high self-esteem, and it was a little awkward.

Obviously he is ten years old, but he still looks very thin, there is no meat on his little face, and his clothes are washed and white, which is really pitiful.

But look at the bone appearance of this little Zhengtai, take care of it well, and you will definitely be able to charm a little girl in the future.

After a while, Ah Wu came out, and he walked up to Xu Yuan, "I'll clean up the room for you, and you can sleep tonight." ”

Xu Yuan said: "Thank you, what else?" ”

"I want to be paid, I don't need you to take care of me, you just need to protect me."

The child knows a lot, and this deal is quite cost-effective for her.

Xu Yuan said: "How do you know that I can protect you?" I'm a weak woman. ”

"Your sword, and besides, you found me, and even the village chief didn't find me."

"Promising boys." This kid's observation skills are really good, and if he has the conditions, he will definitely be able to achieve success in the future.

"Okay, then our deal is done."

Ah Wu added: "I don't have much food here, you must eat a lot, you can figure it out yourself." ”

Xu Yuan took a deep breath, "I don't eat much, I'll figure it out by myself." ”

Ah Wu said: "That's good, I'll take you to the house to have a look." ”
