Chapter 131
"Well, occasionally the old lady next door will give me some meat to eat." Xiao Zhuang glanced at the dish and didn't think there was any problem at all.

It's good to have food.

Mu Jiu pursed her lips, "Well, let's eat then."

Although it was only after ten o'clock, she had been here for so long and hadn't eaten a single drop of rice, so she felt a little hungry now.

"Okay." The boy licked his lips, ran to the cabinet, opened the cabinet, took out two bowls, and barely reached the stove.

Mu Jiu reached out to take it, and lifted the lid of the pot. There was no utensil to hold the rice, so he took a spatula and put it in the bowl.

When it was ready, put the lid on the pot, put the two bowls of rice on the stove, and looked around, but there was no decent table...

Xiao Zhuang also understood, ran out, and borrowed a bench from the next door, "Big Brother, just put it here."

Mu Jiu's eyes froze for a second, and then she came to her senses, took the rice to the stool, and went to bring over the dishes as well.

At this moment, there were two more small stools beside the bench, and Mu Jiu found one to sit on.

"..." This is the first time I ate like this, I feel...unspeakable.

"Big Brother, I'll give you this bowl, and I'll eat this bowl." Xiao Zhuang looked at the two bowls of rice, his eyes flickered, and he pushed the more bowl to Mu Jiu, and took the lesser one.

Mu Jiu glanced at it, reached out and took the small bowl in front of her, and pushed the large bowl back, "You eat, I'm not very hungry."

It's fine for her as an adult, but children need to eat more.

Xiao Zhuang looked up at Mu Jiu, his eyes were a little red, and when he saw Mu Jiu looking over, he immediately lowered his head to pick up the rice.

Mu Jiu looked at the bowl that was missing corners, feeling helpless, the drinking bowl just now was probably the best among so many bowls.

After lunch, Mu Jiu leaned against the door frame to rest.

Xiao Zhuang sat on the side, looking up at Mu Jiu from time to time, his dark eyes rolling around.

"By the way, Xiao Zhuang, what do you usually rely on to make a living in your village?"

When Mu Jiu remembered the purpose, she asked casually.

"In our village, most people embroider their own fabrics and wait for people from the city to pass by, and then bring them to the city to sell."

Xiao Zhuang didn't doubt it, he just asked Mu Jiu on a whim.

"In this way, does every household know how to embroider?" Mu Jiu looked at the distant mountains with a casual tone.

Xiao Zhuang nodded, looked at Mu Jiu, and asked curiously, "Big brother, what do you people in the city do! I've never been out of this village."

As he said that, he looked at Mu Jiu with envy.

Mu Jiu didn't know what the people in the city did, so she picked a few at random and said, "Some run restaurants, some sell various things, and there are many more. You'll find out when you leave the village."

Hearing this, the boy's eyes dimmed. Grandma said that he can't go out until he is as old as his father.

Mu Jiu looked around at the houses that were burning with cooking smoke. If Xiao Zhuang was right, then she had completed her mission when she came back.

Suddenly thought of something, and said, "By the way, you heard that there are "ghosts" in your village? What's the matter?"

Since we want to cooperate with the people of this village for a long time in the future, we can't let this village be haunted by "ghosts".

After saying that, Mu Jiu didn't hear Xiao Zhuang's reply for a long time, turned her head to look, and saw that the boy's face was pale, his whole body seemed to be shaking, and his face froze, "What's wrong?"

He stood up and walked towards Xiao Zhuang.

"No...it's okay, it's just..." Xiao Zhuang came back to his senses, seeing that Mu Jiu had arrived, he quickly waved his hands to indicate that he was fine, and his face was still a little pale.
