Chapter 10 Please have an egg, would you like it?

   "I want to stay." Ji Zhao smiled sincerely, "Don't worry, I will find a way to pay off the money owed to the Shen family."

   "This is not a long-term place after all." Shen Yao said softly, there was no warmth in his jet-black eyes.

   "I'm afraid that after I go back, my grandmother will sell me again." Ji Zhao lowered his eyes, expressing the worries and concerns deep in his heart.

  She has read the original work, and the original owner's adoptive grandmother, Xie Shi, is not a good match.

"If it weren't for the kindness of my mother, I am afraid that the adoptive grandmother has agreed to the matchmaker and will sell me to the city as a maid." The smile on Ji Zhao's face turned bitter, "Now that there is a severe drought, Pomegranate Village Many families starved to death..."

  Shen Yao was silent.

  In years of famine, it is always the most ordinary people who suffer.

   "The eggs are cooked!" Ji Zhao stared at the eggs on the fire, and said excitedly, "Do you want to eat one?"

   "No need." Shen Yao shook his head, turned and left.

   It wasn't long before he came over again.

  Ji Zhao, who was eating eggs, blinked suspiciously.

  Shen Yao handed her the burden on his back.

"what is this?"

   "The baggage is yours."

  Full of curiosity, Ji Zhao silently opened the light blue package, carefully inspecting the contents.

  Two pink coarse cloth embroidered long skirts and a crimson skirt, and two small white coats.

  Shen Yao inadvertently caught a glimpse of the white coat she was gesturing on her body, and immediately looked away.

  It's just the tip of the ear, which is slightly red.

   "Thank you." After tidying up his clothes again, Ji Zhao smiled gratefully.

   "It's easy to do," Shen Yao shook his head lightly, "What's more, this is your thing."

   "No matter what, I still want to thank you." Ji Zhao said with a sincere smile, "Please have an egg, would you like it?"

   "No, you can keep it for yourself." Shen Yao shook his head, this time he really left.

  Ji Zhao stared at the back that was fading away, feeling infinite emotion in his heart.

  Who would have thought that Shen Yao, who is so gentle and peaceful now, would become the decisive chief assistant in the future?

   After eating two eggs, Ji Zhao walked into the temple, ready to rest for a while.

   Right now, she has found a place to live, and then it is time to find a way to earn money.

  It's getting hotter and hotter these days, it would be great if you have the capital to do business.

  Ji Zhao thought about it, and decided to go out again.

   At that time, the Shen family compound.

   Zhao Lanhua, who was drying clothes in the yard, accidentally caught a glimpse of her third boy's thoughtful expression, and asked quickly, "My third child, where have you been?"

   "Mother," Shen Yao called out respectfully, "Son just sent back Ji Atao's baggage."

   "She didn't go back to Shiliu Village?"

   "No," Shen Yao shook his head, "She settled down at the Earth Temple in the back mountain."

   "But the earth temple is very narrow and in disrepair..." Zhao Lanhua frowned worriedly, "Why didn't she go back to Shiliu Village?"

   "She said she didn't want to be sold out again by her grandmother at home."

  Zhao Lanhua was at a loss for words for a while, and after a long silence, she finally managed to say, "She is also a poor person."

   "Mom, I'm going back to the house first."

"it is good."

   When noon was approaching, Zhao Lanhua cooked the noodles herself.

  Sister-in-law Shen asked with a smile, "Mother, why are you so interested in rolling noodles yourself?"

   "Mother must be happy!" Shen Ersao, who was adding firewood in front of the hearth, said cheerfully, "Who in Shanghe Village doesn't know that our mother's kneading skills are amazing! The noodles made by mother are very strong!"
