Su Yuning took advantage of the break in making breakfast to boil some hot water, give Xiao Mohan a basin, and then returned to the kitchen.

During this period, she didn't say anything else.

Just thinking of Xiao Mohan's weak state, her brows couldn't help but frown together. She had reason to suspect that Xiao Mohan was starved to this point!

The Xiao family is really cruel!

Breakfast was noodle soup, and this was the fastest. She made more, hoping to make Xiao Mohan eat more.

Maybe it was due to sympathy. As a good young man of the times who often donated money to mountainous areas, Su Yuning subconsciously wanted to be nice to Xiao Mohan.

After the meal, Su Yuning ignored Xiao Mohan who was still sitting in the yard, turned around and walked out of the yard: "I'm going out."

She remembered that there was a carpenter in the village and wondered how much it would cost to make a pair of crutches.

She only had one dollar, which she had to keep as business capital and not spend it randomly. But in Xiao Mohan's current situation, if she didn't have a crutch, she might fall in the toilet next time.

Falling out would do her no good.

As soon as she reached the entrance of the village, she met educated youths going to work, and Zhou Ping'an was naturally among them.

"Xiao Ning, are you here to see me?" Zhou Pingan saw her walking forward absentmindedly and took the initiative to stop her.

Su Yuning raised her head and glanced at him: "No."

She bypassed Zhou Ping'an and walked to the carpenter's house.

Zhou Pingan grabbed her arm:

"I know you are blaming me, but I really can't help it. Your dad asks for ten dollars. Where can I get ten dollars? Xiao Ning, I really like you, you..."

Although people in this era are poor, for an educated youth from the city like Zhou Pingan, ten yuan is not a sky-high price. As long as he is willing, there is no way he can find it, but he doesn't want to.

He never wanted to marry Su Yuning, he was just using Su Yuning.

Su Yuning shook off his hand before he finished speaking:

"I don't like you, please let me go."

Although Zhou Ping'an was willing to let go, Su Yuning did not shake him off, frowning and feeling unhappy: "Zhou Zhiqing, please respect yourself."

"What?" Zhou Ping'an probably didn't expect to hear this from Su Yuning, and was a little stunned for a moment.

Su Yuning took advantage of his daze to throw away his hand, turned and walked away.

She met Xue Ergou: "Brother Xue Ergou."

She called to stop.

Zhou Ping'an happened to catch up: "Xiao Ning..."

Su Yuning hid beside Xue Ergou.

Zhou Ping'an glanced at Xue Ergou, did not dare to pester anymore, and turned to leave.

"What happened to him?"

Xue Ergou looked back at Su Yuning.

Everyone in the village called Xue Ergou Ergouzi, but he was several years older than Su Yuning. Su Yuning really couldn't call him Ergouzi, so he just called him brother.

"Nothing, thank you just now."

"I didn't do anything." Xue Ergou's expression was a little complicated.

Su Yuning laughed and said, "Thank you, too. Do you know how much it costs a carpenter in the village to make a pair of crutches?"

"What do you do with a cane?"

"Here it is for Xiao Mohan. He can't stay in bed anymore. He has to get out of bed and walk around, which is good for his health." Su Yuning didn't say that she was worried about him falling while going to the toilet.

But what she said was true. Xiao Mohan's leg had been raised for more than three months, and it was time for rehabilitation.

Even if you haven't taken good care of it before, you can't continue to stay in bed, otherwise your muscles will atrophy over time.

"No need to do it. I have it at home. My dad used to use it. If you don't mind, come back with me and get it."

Why would Su Yuning mind: "I don't mind, I don't mind, let's go."

Seeing her happy face, Xue Ergou was also a little happy.

Xiao Mohan was the eldest brother he admired, but now that he has become like this, he is the saddest person in the village. He had been outside before, but he came back when he heard that Xiao Mohan was getting married.

Ever since Xiao Mohan was injured, he refused to see him again. Not to mention how sad he felt, he glanced at Xiao Mohan through the window yesterday.

That look made him gnash his teeth in hatred towards the Xiao family.

When he saw Su Yuning coming over just now, he thought she was looking for Zhou Pingan. He was a little angry at first, but he found that she later shook off Zhou Pingan's hand, but Zhou Pingan kept chasing her.

He knew that she had misunderstood Su Yuning.
