There was only one family with the surname An in the village, so as soon as An Hao mentioned it, she understood: "You must be An Shuchao’s daughter, aren’t you?"
"Mhm." An Hao nodded.
"Do you need something from me?"
"Mhm." An Hao looked around, seeing that most people had left, she cheerfully took out a box of Snowflake Cream from her pocket without saying anything and handed it to Lun Ying’e.
"What’s this...?" As Lun Ying’e wondered, she took it and saw that it was a box of Snowflake Cream, her eyes immediately lit up, "Isn’t this Snowflake Cream?"
In the village, women dreamt of having a box of Snowflake Cream; it was fragrant and felt so comfortable on the face.
Having a box of Snowflake Cream was something to be envied.
"Exactly, Auntie. This is Snowflake Cream." An Hao, grinning, took her box of Snowflake Cream, and its pleasant scent immediately wafted out, noticeable even from a distance, "Do you like it?"
Lun Ying’e was baffled by An Hao’s gesture, unsure of what she meant for a while.
Seeing her inquiry about liking it, she quickly nodded: "Like it, of course I like it! Why? Are you giving it to me?"
"Mhm." An Hao nodded again.
"But why?" Lun Ying’e was puzzled.
On normal days, their two families didn’t really interact, did they? Besides, even if she wanted to give her a gift, it wasn’t necessary for a young girl like her to do it.
"It’s , Auntie. Everyone in the village knows about my dad breaking his leg. Ordinarily, since he broke his leg working on the field, the production team should take care of it..."
As soon as An Hao started speaking, Lun Ying’e understood: "I get what you mean. You went to ask Li Wangfu for money, and he refused, right?"
An Hao nodded, seeing Lun Ying’e hesitate, she immediately continued: "I know Auntie has influence at home and a kind heart, so I came to find you especially. The team should contribute some money for this matter, nothing unreasonable... Uncle Li absolutely refused and even threw me and An out of the house. You know the state of my family, if people in the village hadn’t told me that Auntie is kind and suggested I talk to you to persuade Uncle Li, I really wouldn’t have known what to do..."
As she spoke, An Hao’s eyes began to redden.
Logically, giving money to Old An wasn’t unreasonable, and seeing An Hao holding the Snowflake Cream, something she coveted, with its pleasant fragrance tempting her nose, she felt she ought to put in a good word for An Hao for the sake of the Snowflake Cream.
"Alright. Since you trust Auntie so much, I’ll go back and talk to your uncle." Lun Ying’e agreed to help.
"That’s wonderful." An Hao’s tears turned to joy.
"This Snowflake Cream... you don’t need to give it to me..." Lun Ying’e said half-heartedly as she looked at the Snowflake Cream.
"How could I not! This is for Auntie. I have more at home, just come to me if you need more." An Hao complimented Lun Ying’e with a smile, "Someone as beautiful as Auntie shouldn’t miss out on good things. I’ll be going to the city soon, and if I find nice accessories like hair flowers and colorful little scarves, I’ll bring some back for Auntie if they’re suitable."
At that, Lun Ying’e couldn’t close her grinning mouth: "Okay! Auntie thanks you in advance! Come on, come with Auntie to my home!"
An Hao followed Lun Ying’e back to her home, and upon entering, Li Wangfu immediately saw that An Hao had come over again.
His face instantly stretched long like a donkey’s, and he cursed as if his mouth was filled with poison: "That ungrateful brat has come over..."
