Chapter two hundred and twenty first touch my head

Wrapped tightly with his cotton coat, Ye Wuchen trotted to the trading area, feeling that the temperature seemed to be rising again in the past two days. In addition, perhaps because his food has improved a lot, his physical strength has become stronger and stronger.

"Ghost Weather." He spat casually, but his steps were getting faster and faster.

The place they lived was not far from the trading area, and it took Ye Wuchen only half an hour to see the bustling crowd from afar.

Although it is winter, there are still many people selling things on the streets of the northern forces. Although each of them can't hide his fatigue, it also shines with the brilliance of hope.

People in the first and second districts in the north and the first districts in the south are very happy in the end. Most of them can get the work arranged by the above, and as long as they put in enough effort, they can ensure that they will not starve to death.

However, some children suffer more. They often use all their strength to do not complete the task indicators explained above. If they do not have the care of adults, they will always be hungry.

I accidentally noticed a girl on the side of the road carrying a heavy wood. She struggled to move forward, and suddenly her feet slid and staggered to the ground. The wood behind her back broke free from the tied rope and scattered all over the ground.

Ye Wuchen frowned and ran over to support the girl. He saw at a glance that the girl's palm had worn out a layer of skin because it was rubbing against the ground.

"Are you okay?" he asked in a low voice.

The girl looked about age only, with her face and hands covered with frostbite.

"Well, thank you." The girl thanked her simply, turned around and wanted to carry the wood again. When she noticed that the wood was sprinkled all over the floor, her eyes couldn't help but turn red, but she still gritted her teeth and bent down to carry the wood back one by one and put it together.

Seeing this, Ye Wuchen started to help her pick up wood without saying a word, and even tied it together for her.

Seeing that the wood was tied together again, the girl couldn't help but thank her again, but this time the thanks sounded much more sincere, "Thank you."

"It's okay." Ye Wuchen quickly waved his hand and said he didn't need to thank him. When he saw the girl was about to put the wood on the back again, he frowned and picked up the wood and carried it on his body.

"I'll just recite this!" The girl suddenly became anxious when she saw this. The gratitude in her eyes disappeared instantly, and she pulled Ye Wuchen's corner of her clothes and shouted sharply.

"Don't worry, I know what you are worried about." Ye Wuchen sighed, "Don't worry, I used to do these chores like you. You don't have to worry about me carrying your things on your back, nor do you have to worry about me taking credit for you. I will carry a long journey for you and return it to you when I am about to reach my destination."

Perhaps what Ye Wuchen said happened to be the point that the girl cared about. She pursed her lips and there was still a look of doubt on her face.

"You don't have to think too much. My sister is about the same age as you. I just thought of her when I saw you." Ye Wuchen took the girl's hand, handed over a pair of gloves in his pocket, and said gently, "You can warm your hands first, otherwise the scratched area will hurt when you go back."

After taking the gloves handed over by Ye Wuchen, the girl looked at Ye Wuchen carefully and only put on the gloves after seeing that he was really not malicious.

I couldn't help but rub my face with my furry gloves, and a smile appeared on her face uncontrollably.

Very warm.

"Where are you going now?" Ye Wuchen looked at the bustling crowd not far away and asked, "I'll send you over."

"Trading area." The girl's voice was crisp and clear, like a silver bell ringing in the wind, "I'll lead you."

"That happens, I'm about to go to the trading area." Ye Wuchen nodded and walked beside the girl.

Since there was a companion on the road, there was naturally a topic. Ye Wuchen looked sideways and asked casually, "What's your name?"

"My name is Huo Yuzhi." The girl raised her eyes and asked remarkably, "Where are you, brother?"

"Ye Wuchen." Ye Wuchen said with a smile.

After knowing Ye Wuchen's name, Huo Yuzhi lowered her eyes and said carefully after a while:

"Brother Ye... can I call you that?"

"Yes." Hearing Huo Yuzhi calling his brother Ye Wuchen remembered Jiuan and the others, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

I don’t know how they are now for such a long time, and whether Qin Feng has taken good care of them.

"Brother Ye, you are a good person." After getting Ye Wuchen's consent, the girl seemed to let go and said a little, "No one has helped me before."

"You reminded me of my sister Jiuan." Looking sideways at Huo Yuzhi's eyes, Ye Wuchen smiled gently, "She looks about the same age as you, and she is already eleven years old this year."

"I'm eleven years old this year." Attracted by Ye Wuchen's gentle gaze, Huo Yuzhi suddenly became a little jealous of the girl named Jiuan.

She is obviously as old as her but has such a good brother to take care of her. She is not like her who has always been alone.

"Is that true?" Ye Wuchen said in surprise if he didn't know what Huo Yuzhi was thinking, "I thought you were only old."

"Maybe it's malnutrition." Huo Yuzhi smiled. Although he said something that made people feel pity, he had a kind of stubbornness on his face, which made people feel even more distressed.

I couldn't help but reach out and touch Huo Yuzhi's head. When I saw Huo Yuzhi staring at him blankly, he took his hand back embarrassedly, "Sorry, but I hope you can work hard. As long as we can live, we will definitely walk in this kind of life."

When Huo Yuzhi moved the warm hand away from her head, she felt her heart tightening. She subconsciously held Ye Wuchen's hand and quickly put her hand behind her embarrassedly.

"Why do you want to apologize?" Ye Wuchen was stunned, "It should be because I was abrupt."

"No." Huo Yuzhi shook her head, her head drooped and was almost buried in her not thick collar.

The two of them didn't talk any further along the way, and the atmosphere between them was a bit awkward.

The trading area is crowded but not crowded, but the environment is very noisy.

At this moment, Huo Yuzhi suddenly stopped and pulled Ye Wuchen's arm with both hands.

"What's wrong?" Ye Wuchen stopped and asked.

Huo Yuzhi pursed her lips without making a sound. Just when Ye Wuchen was about to ask again, she stammered, "You can, can you touch my head again?"

Unexpectedly, she would make such a request. Ye Wuchen was stunned for a moment and then smiled. He reached out and touched Huo Yuzhi's dirty head, without any disgust in his eyes.

"Is that true?" he asked with a smile.
