Chapter 8
An Mingji pinched the clothes in his hand and looked back at Gu Jin who was approaching the room. After seeing the water in the enamel basin of the other party's hand, he suddenly realized.
It turns out that he was not disliked.
Gu Jin walked towards An Mingji and held him in one hand and placed the enamel basin on the shelf with the other.
"Wash first, wash it, and then we wear clean clothes."
An Mingji lowered his head and whispered: "Okay."
It was a relief to be grateful.
He felt that his heart was rising and falling, and his heartbeat was faster.
After Gu Jin washed An Mingji's hands, he wiped the blood-stained areas with a towel, which made him change into his clothes.
Not to mention, An Mingji is wearing her clothes two or three years ago now.
Looking at the other person's bruised and swollen facial features, this is a pretty and beautiful face with a handsome outline of adulthood in the future.
Gu Jin suddenly asked, "Xiao An, how old are you?"
"At 13 years old."
An Mingji pinched the corner of his clothes and answered uneasy.
"..." Gu Jin widened his eyes.
This child is only three years younger than her.
But he looked as thin as an eight or nine-year-old child.
If she remembered correctly, the child who bullied An Mingji at the entrance of the village was as old as An Mingji. The one she saw at the first time, who ran away with the older child she said was as old as An Mingji.
That was the son of Liu Laoer's family in Qingshan Village, named Liu Dapeng.
The reason I remember clearly is that the person was very profound in her impression.
Although Liu Dapeng is younger than her, he is like a "bully" in the village. He often mingles with a group of children who don't go to school and steals no matter how many people are.
And this person bullied her a lot.
Liu Dapeng is obviously as old as An Mingji, but the two look like they are five or six years apart.
Gu Jin looked at An Mingji's thin and obviously malnourished body, and his face showed heartache and pity.
Just then a gurgle sounded.
Gu Jin swept An Mingji's stomach and kept protesting.
When An Mingji made a sound, his little face was flushed with his head down.
Seeing him like this, Gu Jin reached out and touched his head: "Wait here, I'll go find some food."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
In the kitchen, Chen Hong was sitting on a small bench on the stove to burn the fire, complaining to her little daughter who came in to help: "...The harvest last year was not good, and the grain this year will not be harvested at least three months later. She also brought back a half-baby who had to eat for free. How much food does this have to be eaten! The food at home is not enough for us to eat..."
When Gu Jin approached the kitchen, he heard his aunt complaining and complaining inside.
Her steps did not stop and walked straight into the kitchen.
After seeing her figure, Chen Hong's complaints stopped and nodded.
Gu Jin smiled and said, "Auntie, what's the food in the kitchen? Xiao An is the child, too. I almost fainted from hunger. I realized that he had been hungry for several days."
When Chen Hong heard her words, she was angry and rushed up. When she was about to say no to give her, she heard her say that she almost fainted from hunger, and her face changed a few times.
She curled her lips and stood up, and said dissatisfiedly to Gu Jin: "Wait!"
Chen Hong walked to the cupboard in front of the kitchen, lifted the curtain and took out a yellow bun from it, walked to Gu Jin and said with a bitter look on his face: "Give it!"
"Thank you, aunt."
Gu Jin took the yellow bread and thanked him with a smile.
