Chapter 635: touched
"Qingqing, are you awake? I heard that you feel a little unwell, are you sick? There is a free doctor in the city. If you feel unwell, I will take you there."
Aunt Zhou's words brought Qingqing back to her senses. She got off the bed in a daze, and found that she had no other discomfort except for a little dizziness.
However, last night she...
She dressed and opened the door before she had time to think about it.
When the aunt of the Zhou family saw her coming out, she opened her eyes and looked at her carefully. Seeing that her face was a little pale, she worried, "Did you not sleep well last night? This room has been empty before, maybe there is some humidity. , Now it is Runchun and the humidity is higher, maybe it is not comfortable to sleep, or you can sleep in my room at night."
Looking at the sincere eyes of Mrs. Zhou, Qingqing suddenly became flustered.
She looked evasive and said: "No need, ma'am, I'm fine, I just didn't sleep well thinking about the previous things, it's very good here."
Mrs. Zhou believed it, and after a few words of comfort, she took her to the main room, "I've already prepared breakfast, so hurry up and eat it while it's hot."
Auntie Zhou served her a bowl of porridge and two steamed buns with miscellaneous grains.
During the whole meal, Qingqing was in a daze, a little absent-minded.
After eating, the Zhou family aunt changed into working clothes, and she seemed to be ready to go out with a basket and a dustpan.
Qingqing looked at it curiously and asked, "Ma'am, where are you going?"
"Go to dig the clay. The city lord said that the clay will be collected now. After digging the clay and filtering it, it will be sent to the engineering department. As long as the clay is qualified, it will be sold by the catty."
"What can this clay do?"
The aunt of the Zhou family cleaned up and said: "I heard that the city lord wants to build a road for us, saying that we can't stay here forever. If we want to make everyone's horizons wider and life better, we still have to go out. The city lord is Well, do everything for us."
"Building roads..."
"Yeah, I have to look for this clay on the mountains outside. Your girl is so weak that she stays at home. I won't come back at noon. There are still some steamed buns on the stove. If you are hungry, go and eat them." .”
After finishing speaking, Mrs. Zhou will leave.
Qingqing chased after a few steps and took the dustpan in her hand, "Ma'am, let me go with you, I want to help you with something, otherwise I will feel sorry."
Aunt Zhou refused a few words, but Qingqing insisted and she agreed.
Qingqing followed Mrs. Zhou through the iron gates and finally came to the exit.
On the road, Qingqing was carefully observing the surrounding environment, and she was shocked when she saw a jungle next to the exit, and could vaguely see ferocious beasts in the forest.
After they left the city, Qingqing asked inadvertently: "Ma'am, this is the only exit in this city. There are so many people coming in and out every day. Why don't you think the city lord opened another exit?"
Mrs. Zhou said: "The city lord is also thinking about our safety. There are too many entrances and exits here, so we are afraid that some people with evil intentions will sneak in and threaten us."
Qingqing nodded, and silently wrote down what Aunt Zhou said.
After leaving the city, Mrs. Zhou took her to the direction of the mountain. On the way, she met many people who knew Mrs. Zhou and greeted them.
Those people were carrying baskets and dustpans, or pushing dirt carts like Mrs. Zhou, all of whom were going to dig clay up the mountain.
"There is more clay over there. After we dig it, we will see if there is anyone pushing a cart. We can also borrow someone else's cart to transport the dug soil to the bottom of the mountain first, so that it will be easier for us to go back to the city.
They chose a place with a lot of people, and Mrs. Zhou started digging hard.
Qingqing was not idle, helping to smash the soil into the basket and dustpan.
"The city lord, the city lord is here."
Suddenly there was a commotion ahead, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked up.
A slender figure in light blue walked over steadily from the mountain ahead, even if she wasn't very close, the cold aura on her body couldn't be ignored.
Su Yan personally followed people to inspect the terrain on the mountain today. It rains a lot in spring, and she is also worried that the people in the city will be in danger when digging clay, so she came over to have a look and confirm the road construction route again.
"The city lord."
"See the castellan."
Su Yan paused to let everyone stand up.
"Get up, you don't need to care about these vain rituals outside, everyone hurry up and work while it's still early."
"It's the lord of the city, the lord of the city, the road in the mountains is not easy, you have to be careful." Someone couldn't help reminding.
"OK."
Su Yu continued to go down the mountain.
Mrs. Zhou regained her senses and continued digging, but she saw Qingqing standing motionless by the side.
"Qingqing, Qingqing?"
Qingqing came back to her senses and secretly clenched the dagger in her sleeve, "What's wrong, ma'am?"
Aunt Zhou laughed and said, "Are you tired? If you are tired, go and have a rest, don't be too tired."
Qingqing put away the dagger calmly, "I'm fine, ma'am, I'm just a little nervous to see the city lord all of a sudden."
"Why are you nervous, the city lord is a very good person, but ah, it's quite scary to teach people a lesson."
"Mother, I heard that the city lord is very skilled, is it true?"
Aunt Zhou's goosebumps stood up when she thought of Su Yan's battle in the Tiger Camp.
"Of course, I have never seen anyone more powerful than the Santo."
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Mrs. Zhou borrowed a car to transport the dug clay to the foot of the mountain, and finally transported the clay back home before dark.
When the two returned home, the lights were already on, and Zhou Xing had just prepared dinner.
"Mother, you are back."
"I'm back, but your mother's old waist will be broken."
"If you are too tired, don't go, we still have something to eat now."
The aunt of the Zhou family cast a sharp look at him, "Don't you have to save up your little money to marry a wife? When the girl comes to our house, can you make others live a hard life?"
"Just do it, don't get tired and do it yourself."
After eating, Zhou Xing went to the backyard to chop firewood, not knowing when Qingqing was behind him.
Seeing Qingqing, Zhou Xing was stiff for a moment, but he paused and said: "Miss Qingqing, I'm really sorry last night, I don't know what happened, I almost lost control of myself..."
Qingqing said softly with bright eyes: "Young master Zhou, you are my savior, if you really want... little girl, I..."
"No, no, don't get me wrong. I'm definitely not someone who can be overpowered. Last night was really an accident. Don't be afraid. I've already told the Security Bureau today that I'll move in tomorrow. Don't be afraid. "
Qingqing looked at Zhou Xing's slightly hasty back and gradually lost her mind.
In the middle of the night, a figure quietly came to the yard.
Qingqing suddenly opened her eyes when she heard the movement, and when she got up, she saw a figure standing outside the window. She was startled, and quickly opened the door to let him in.
