At this time, Mu Qingci and Chen Zhiyi had just charged up their mobile phones and laptops. When Chen Zhiyi heard Xiao Mo say it was Feng Lie's intention, he bumped Mu Qingci's shoulder and winked at her when she looked over: "I'll just say it. As long as Mr. Feng is willing to help, there is nothing he can’t do.”
Just as Mu Qingci was about to answer the call, she saw her uncle and Meng Yichen walking from the street carrying a wood stove.
She hurriedly asked Chen Zhiyi to help her look at the charged mobile phones and notebooks, and then went up to them.
"Uncle, eldest cousin."
Meng Yichen looked at the generator on the big truck with an envious look on his face: "I didn't expect someone else brought a generator on this street. My phone is out of battery. I'll charge it later."
The uncle said to Mu Qingci: "We brought you a wood stove, but it has not been used for many years, and there is no firewood at home. If you want to boil water, you have to find a way to get some firewood."
Although Mu Qingci didn't know where to get firewood, she still took the two of them back.
When Meng Meilan saw them coming, she stood up and walked in with them.
At this time, Xiao Mo, who was sitting in the truck, looked at the backs of Mu Qingci and the others in the rearview mirror. He smiled and said to Feng Lie, who was sitting next to him and was working on a laptop: "I didn't expect to see such an ancient wood stove here. I just don’t know if Miss Mu’s house has a wood-burning stove.”
Feng Lie raised his eyes and glanced at the figure walking into the house, then turned his head and glanced at him.
Although he didn't say anything, Xiao Mo understood instantly. He consciously took out his mobile phone and said, "I know, I'll send someone to find some firewood right away."
Feng Lie then retracted his gaze and prepared to continue working, but his cell phone rang.
He didn't know what the other party said, so he said "I'll be right over", then quickly closed the notebook and said to Xiao Mo: "I'll leave for a while, you look over here."
Xiao Mo gave him an OK gesture.
Feng Lie opened the car door, got out of the car and walked quickly towards the street.
…
After placing the wood stove in the yard of Mu Qingci's house, the uncle said: "There are no coal sellers in the town at this time, and there is no place to find dry branches. If we send the wood stove over, you won't be able to use it." "
Meng Meilan: "Everyone is looking gray today. We have to let the children wash their hair and take a bath. Later I will go to the higher woods outside the town to have a look. The sun has come out today, and there are always dry branches."
"Let's go. It's not safe for you to go out of town at night as a woman."
Mu Qingci stood nearby and did not interrupt.
After the uncle finished speaking, he prepared to walk outside with Meng Yichen.
Mu Qingci followed them and said, "Uncle, cousin, I'll go with you."
The uncle refused: "You are at home. There are still many places on the road outside that have not been cleared of mud. It won't be bad if you go and fall."
Meng Yichen also said: "Yes, Celadon, just wait at home with your sister-in-law. We will go outside the town to collect some dry firewood and then come back."
After saying that, he took out the phone and handed it to her: "Please help me charge it. My phone is out of battery."
Mu Qingci took his cell phone and said, "Uncle and cousin should be careful when they go out. If they can't pick up dry firewood, forget it."
The two agreed and went out.
After they walked away, Mu Qingci turned to look at Meng Meilan.
Meng Meilan was looking at the gate at the moment and said with emotion: "That's why we can only see who is good to us at this time."
Mu Qingci said: "Mom, after we finish the decoration, you can lend the remaining money to your uncle's family privately. You must let your cousin marry your sister-in-law first."
Meng Meilan nodded. In fact, she also had this idea. She originally wanted to discuss it with Mu Qingci after the decoration was completed. Since the child was mentioned first, she had a plan in mind.
…
I originally thought that my uncle and cousin would go out for a while before coming back. Unexpectedly, in just ten minutes, the two of them came back with a large bundle of dry firewood.
Mu Qingci and Meng Meilan were both a little surprised.
The uncle said: "As soon as we reached the entrance of the village, two young men came over carrying firewood. They asked us if we helped your family collect dry firewood. We said yes, and they gave us the firewood. "
Meng Meilan asked hurriedly: "Why did those two people suddenly help us collect dry firewood?"
Meng Yichen: "They said it was ordered by their boss, who is the one who uses the generator for this street."
Hearing this, Mu Qingci hurriedly said: "I'll go out first."
Then he ran outside.
Meng Meilan looked at the figure running out, and suddenly had a premonition in her heart.
But she didn't show it, instead preparing to boil water to wash the two girls' hair and bathe.
When Mu Qingci ran out, many people on the street took stools and sat near the large truck. They were sitting in groups holding cattail fans and chatting.
Chen Zhiyi obviously liked this atmosphere very much. He sat with them without any fear and listened to them with interest as they talked about interesting things happening in the town.
Mu Qingci passed by them, and Chen Zhiyi took the time to ask: "Ci Ci, what are you doing?"
Under countless pairs of eyes, Mu Qingci only said: "Something happened."
After that, he continued walking towards the front of the car.
Chen Zhiyi didn't ask any more questions.
But everyone has talked about Mu Qingci's excellence since childhood.
To sum up, in their eyes, Mu Qingci is someone else's child.
Mu Qingci was embarrassed by their various compliments, so she quickened her pace and walked to the front of the big truck.
The truck was big enough and the front of the truck was high enough. Mu Qingci looked up and couldn't see the people inside at all, so she called out: "Instructor."
Xiao Mo, who was lying on the back of the chair playing with his mobile phone, heard the sound and looked out. When he saw it was Mu Qingci, he immediately grinned at her: "Miss Mu, my boss has left because of something. If you want to do something with him, I will Call him right away."
When Mu Qingci heard this, she waved her hands quickly: "No, no, I'm just here to thank him for the firewood he asked people to find for our family."
"Oh~ Then you can thank him in person when he comes back."
Xiao Mo said. Sitting high, he could see far away. He happened to see Feng Lie coming from the other side of the street, so he pointed in front: "My boss is back, go and thank him."
After saying that, he took his head back.
Mu Qingci subconsciously looked towards the street, and sure enough she saw Feng Lie walking over there.
When I see people, that feeling of uncontrollable heartbeat comes back.
But thinking that she was here to thank him, she didn't run away. She stood there and waited for him to approach before going up to him.
"Become an instructor."
Feng Lie stood one and a half meters away from her and looked at her.
Mu Qingci felt a little uncomfortable when he saw her, so she quickly said, "Thank you for asking someone to help us find some dry firewood."
Feng Lie just hummed, his expression always indifferent.
Seeing his expression, the discomfort in Mu Qingci's heart disappeared inexplicably.
She said again: "Then I'll go back."
After saying that, he turned around and ran away.
Feng Lie looked at the figure running away and pursed his lips.
At this time, Xiao Mo got out of the car.
He looked at his boss, then at the figure running back, and said seriously: "Boss, you can't do this. When the girl thanks you, you have to show that you are willing to help. You use this expression to her, Maybe her gratitude to you has been frightened away by you.”
Feng Lie turned his head to look at him, with a chilling coldness in his eyes.
Xiao Mo couldn't resist anymore and simply walked towards the crowd.
As soon as he walked over, everyone was very enthusiastic towards him and immediately made room for him.
After Xiao Mo sat down, he turned to Feng Lie and said, "Boss, come sit down and let's chat for a while."
Many older people also asked Feng Lie to sit and chat with him.
Chen Zhiyi, who was sitting next to Xiao Mo, lowered his voice and asked: "Your boss doesn't like this kind of excitement. Are you sure you can call him?"
Xiao Mo shrugged: "Not sure, but..."
At this point, he suddenly asked loudly: "Are you talking about Miss Mu just now? She is so amazing. She has been a top student since she was a child. She skipped a grade in high school and a grade in college. I have never seen such a powerful top student. What do you think? Let me tell you, how powerful is she?"
Chen Zhiyi, who was still paying attention to Feng Lie, said in shock: "Your boss is here!"
Xiao Mo smiled triumphantly.
But at this time, everyone was attracted by his topic and started talking about it. Chen Zhiyi didn't think much and continued to listen with interest.
Mu Qingci, who was originally going to go out and sit for a while, came in after the water was boiled: "..."
Forget it, I’d better not go out. This kind of scene is so embarrassing!
