Chapter 28: Do One Kindness Every Day

The small town at the foot of Taihuang Mountain has been invaded by bandits all year round. The houses are dilapidated and the windows and doors of every household are closed, making it look like a long-abandoned town.

There was nothing on the stall, with only a few worn-out shelves standing alone, making it look even more depressed.

For two whole days, Mu Yan and Ruan Yu had not eaten anything, and now they were even more hungry and dizzy.

I finally found the town by accident, but I didn't expect the town to be so weird.

Not to mention not being able to find food, if they finally meet someone, they will run away like a mouse seeing a cat.

Mu Yan seriously suspected that she was the most useless person in the time-traveling army.

Ruan Yu was so hungry that his stomach growled. He had never been so miserable since he was a child.

Mu Yan raised her head and looked up at ninety degrees. She just wanted to write a poem to express her sadness.

Ruan Yu's beautiful little face became wrinkled, and her eyes were desperate and sad.

When can I eat?
For a moment, the two of them looked at each other in silence, feeling like they were connected by the same fate.

Mu Yan really felt guilty. It was really a sin for her pretty young master to be starving with her now.

"Young Master, I promise there will be food soon."

Ruan Yu licked her dry lips and responded firmly, "I believe you."

In fact, he burst into tears in his heart. He must not damage Miss Yan's self-confidence at this moment.

He is such a considerate young man.

Seeing the young master's sincere eyes, Mu Yan felt even more guilty.

Mu Yan took out the remaining 30 taels in his arms and decided to risk it all.

She mustered up the courage to knock on the door again, and this time she had to get in no matter what method she used.

"Excuse me, is there anyone?"

After knocking twice in a row, there was no response. Mu Yan and the two looked at each other.

They just saw someone lighting a fire inside.

Mu Yan pursed his lips and looked solemn before knocking on the door again.

At this time, the voice of a five or six year old child came from inside.

"Stop knocking, there's no one inside."

The child's voice was trembling, as if he was afraid of their arrival.

If you listen carefully again, you can still hear the sound of children crying.

Ruan Yu was a little worried and reached out to hold Mu Yan's clothes. The child was crying so uncomfortably. What must have happened?
Mu Yan thought for a few seconds, then reached out and pushed open the door. The room was visibly messy, the utensils were covered with dust, and the dark roof was covered with spider webs.

No one has taken care of this place for a long time.

There was a husband lying on a simple wooden bed, with a little child hidden beside him.

The child was wearing tattered linen clothes, his little face was dirty, and his eyes red from crying were wary of the intruders in his home.

Mu Yan sniffed towards the husband's breath. His chest did not rise and fall, and his nose did not flutter. There were already corpse spots on his body and he had been dead for a long time.

The little boy stared closely at Mu Yan's actions, as if he could run out and fight as long as Mu Yan did something.

Ruan Yu stood nervously next to Mu Yan, her face turned pale. He had never seen the deceased so close before.

Seeing the pitiful appearance of the little boy, Ruan Yu looked at Mu Yan pleadingly.

They all knew in their hearts that the world was in chaos, and if they didn't save the little boy, he would definitely starve to death.

Maybe he won't die and will be taken in by a good family. Maybe it will be even worse.

Mu Yan sighed silently. She knew that they could no longer protect themselves. The best way now was to turn a blind eye and leave immediately.

But if you do this, the young master will definitely be very sad!

Only then did Mu Yan realize that sometimes when weighing the pros and cons, it is better to just follow your heart.

"Little guy, if you give me food, I will help you."

The little boy was stunned for a few seconds, and then his eyes lit up. His little body staggered up, and he ran to a corner and started digging around. After a few moments, he found two dark things in his hand. Sweet potato ran to Mu Yan and handed it to her with both hands.

The little boy's eyes were full of expectation, and he was risking his life on Mu Yan's kindness.Ruan Yu held her breath, nervously waiting for Mu Yan's decision, and then waiting for his decision.

Mu Yan took the two sweet potatoes and looked at them for a few times, then looked at the little boy.

"Little guy, this is the burial fee you paid. Take us to your father's favorite place."

The little boy nodded vigorously, showing his white teeth on his dirty face. He knew that he had won the bet.

The little boy's father likes a good place surrounded by mountains and rivers.

From the moment he met Mu Yan to the burial of his father, the little boy remained silent and did not shed a single tear in his eyes. His stubborn demeanor was very similar to that of the young master.

"Little guy, say goodbye to your father."

The little boy knelt down obediently and kowtowed several times respectfully. His eyes turned red and he gritted his teeth to avoid shedding a single tear.

Although he is young, he knows that from today on, he will no longer have any relatives, no father will hold him to sleep, no one will tell him stories, and no one will reprimand him for being naughty in a gentle tone. .

He was left alone.

Ruan Yu could no longer suppress her emotions, tears welled up from her eyes, she stretched out her hands to take the little baby into her arms, hugged him tightly and tried to give him a little warmth.

The little boy stayed in Ruan Yu's arms, staring straight at the big brother holding him.

Big brother's arms are so warm, just like daddy, so warm.

The tip of his nose was unbearably sore, and he finally burst into tears in Ruan Yu's arms.

He has no father!

He is the only one left!
He was crying, feeling aggrieved, and venting his loneliness and fear over the past few days.

Mu Yan stayed beside them quietly, protecting them like an upright patron saint.

……

The little boy was so tired that he fell into a deep sleep in Ruan Yu's arms.

Ruan Yu lovingly covered him with clothes, and the warmth in her eyes could melt people.

Seeing this scene, Mu Yan's heart seemed to be hit by something for some reason.

She seemed to be expecting someone to look at her like that.

Mu Yan lowered his eyes, and when he raised his head, his expression had returned to normal, as if the scene just now had never happened.

After crying, I was still hungry.

Mu Yan decided to go back to his old business of fishing, but this time instead of fishing, he went down to the river to catch.

She is still self-aware. If she really fishes, she will definitely not be able to eat until the year of the monkey. Which is more important, hunger or good face, she can think about it with her feet.

This time we still had a good harvest. We caught several fish of various sizes and also dug up wild taro.

These things can also make a full meal.

When the little boy woke up, he found that he had gone home.

The eldest sister and brother who helped him today did not leave. They cooked something delicious by the stove.

The little guy couldn't help but lick his lips. He hadn't eaten for several days.

Ruan Yu covered his hungry stomach. Now he was no longer shy as he was the first time, and his eyes were looking straight at the fish in the pot.

For the first time, he felt that fish was so delicious.

Seeing that the little boy woke up, he happily picked him up and sat down together. Now the two of them were staring at the hot fish in the pot with salivation.

Mu Yan looked at the two people sitting in rows and couldn't help but feel funny.

"Little Master, take the little guy to wash his hands."

Ruan Yu said happily, and after washing her hands, she took the little guy and sat down eagerly.

They sat down, and fish soup and roasted taro were placed in front of them.

Seeing Mu Yan holding the bowls and chopsticks, one big and one small was waiting eagerly for her.
