"Ruxin, do you still do business?" Fang Tianze was really curious about Yang Ruxin’s life. He didn’t know why, but from the first time he saw her, he felt a desire to get close to her, a strange feeling indeed.
"Not exactly business," Yang Ruxin smiled, "I just make some food to supply Quanshun Building."
"Then the person just now..."
"That was the shopkeeper of Baiwei Restaurant." Yang Ruxin glanced at Fang Tianze, "I wanted to supply Baiwei Restaurant before, but they weren’t interested. I don’t know why he’s pestering me now."
"It’s definitely because the food sister makes is delicious," Fang Tianze said with shining eyes.
"My, my, didn’t expect you to have such a sweet mouth," Yang Ruxin said with a laugh and lifted her hand, intending to ruffle his hair, but then she remembered that he was already twelve years old, not like Xiaofeng or Zhou Xiao, and she put her hand down again.
Fang Tianze lowered his gaze, concealing the disappointment in his eyes.
"Miss Yang, the village is just up ahead," Liu Guang, who was driving the carriage, announced at that moment.
"There’s no need to go into the village." Yang Ruxin hurried out of the carriage and sat on the shaft, "Turn left at the road by the riverbank..."
It was dusk by now, and every household was cooking, so there weren’t many people who saw the carriage coming.
"I’m back..." When the carriage stopped at the door, Yang Ruxin jumped straight down from the shaft and called out.
"Big sister..." Sini was the first to rush out and clung to Yang Ruxin’s thigh, "You’re finally back..."
"What’s the matter? Missed me?" Yang Ruxin patted her little sister’s head and then patted Zhou Ying’s head, who had followed out.
"Girl, you’re finally back, I didn’t eat lunch..." Dao Xuzi also ran out with a look of grievance on his face.
"Then who ate all those oil cakes Aunt Feng made?" Sanni put her hands on her hips and glared at Dao Xuzi.
"Wasn’t I left with no choice?" Dao Xuzi guiltily stroked his beard, then rubbed his belly, looking pitifully at Yang Ruxin, "Xinxin, I’m hungry..."
"I know, I’ll cook in a moment," Yang Ruxin waved her hand, helped Fang Tianze get down from the carriage, and then went into the yard, "We have a guest, let me introduce him to you..." Of course, she didn’t reveal his identity, simply saying he was a younger brother she recognized, whom she met at Doctor Wang’s clinic. He was in poor health and wanted to come to the countryside to recuperate for a few days. Moreover, he was a little older than her young siblings, so everybody should call him ’Brother Ze’.
Fang Tianze was good-looking, and despite his sickly pallor, he had elegant manners, which quickly endeared him to the Yang family. Of course, there was also an element of sympathy and pity for him.
"Xinxin," Gu Qingheng came over pushed by Gu Yao. In fact, Gu Yao had also gone to the county town and had seen everything clearly. She had not shown herself because she saw that Yang Ruxin was fine, but she had secretly taught that Hao Shao a lesson. Not that Yang Ruxin was aware of this.
When Fang Tianze laid eyes on Gu Qingheng, he was shocked. This man was really handsome, but... those lifeless eyes, the wheelchair... At that moment, he felt that he might be lucky too. At least he could see the colors of the world and use his own legs to go wherever he wanted...
