Is Shizi ill today?

Chapter 973 This girl is so handsome, is she your wife?
The carriage stopped at the gate of a brick-roofed house.

After Xichun got out of the car, she looked around.

I saw a few elderly women sitting not far away, and there were children squatting on the ground beside them playing.

A broken sack was used as a pad in front of them, and some seasonal vegetables were placed on it.

There was still some stagnant water in front of the door, and some rotten smelly leaves mixed in, giving off a foul smell.

Ding Er noticed something, and said, "I'd better go to the town and find you an inn to stay in first."

Xichun withdrew her gaze, shook her head, "It's pretty good here."

At least she still has a place to live, as long as she avoids the limelight, Ding Liu will take her back.

Xichun raised her foot and walked in.

Ding Er tied the reins to a tree trunk not far away, and followed him into it.

A woman was drying beans outside. When she heard footsteps, she raised her head and narrowed her eyes with a smile: "You're finally back."

"This girl is so handsome, is she your wife?"

She wiped her hands on her clothes and walked over.

Xichun stopped walking, a little uncomfortable, and was about to say something.

Ding Er came up and said with a smile: "My brother's sister will live here for a while, please ask my mother-in-law to take care of her."

"So it's your brother's sister." The old woman nodded regretfully, and muttered, "How old are you, when is it time to bring back a daughter-in-law? Don't wander around. This world is not stable."

Immediately, she smiled at Xichun and said, "What do you want to eat? I'll get it for you."

Xichun's face was flushed, a little at a loss: "No need, I'm not hungry."

"Well, then I'll go and tidy up a room for you."

The old woman turned and left.

Xichun hurriedly followed: "Grandma, I will do it myself."

This room is very simple, except for a bed that can only sleep one person, a wardrobe for clothes, and an old wooden box, there is nothing else.

The old woman took out the quilt and spread it on the bed.

"Little girl, I've wronged you. Ding Er rarely comes back, so I didn't expect him to bring girls here. You stay here first, and if there is anything wrong, make up for it."

"No need, mother-in-law, it's fine here."

Xichun quickly said, "I'm the one who caused trouble for you."

"Look at what you said, this house belongs to Ding Er, and I'm just a borrower. He's a good boy, and I've lost my bones. If he hadn't taken him in, he would have died of old age."

The old man smiled while laying the bed.

Xichun was taken aback: "Aren't you his mother?"

"No, I'm just a bad old woman without children and grandchildren. My bastard son had a wife and forgot his mother. He despised me for being dirty and kicked me out. I was begging on the street. I was so sick that I almost died. Fortunately, I met him." When I arrived at this child, he was kind-hearted, brought me back, and placed me here."

After the old woman made the bed, she stood up and said, "Ding Er is such a nice boy. This is the first time he brought a girl back, so don't be polite, girl, just stay alive."

This is the first time Xichun has heard about Ding Er. She only remembers that he was injured at that time, and she took care of him for a few days. He doesn’t talk much on weekdays, but he helped her a lot. will be nearby.

It never occurred to him that he was such a warm-hearted person that he even picked up the old man who had never met before.

Inexplicably, she relaxed a lot, and there was a smile on her face.
