Because it snowed heavily here in the countryside and the roads were slippery, Ning Chengyuan did not forget to buy a pair of white snow boots for Xuan Jiu. Xuan Jiu liked them very much after wearing them.
Later, Ning Chengyuan couldn't help but stop in front of a stall.
"Master, buy a couple's chain for your wife!"
Ning Chengyuan's eyes fell on a pair of red rope chains. The red ropes were very delicately woven and tied with a white round jade stone.
Ning Chengyuan picked it up and asked the stall owner: "Where did you wear this?"
"Wear it on your feet. This pair of anklets is a pair. It can be worn by a couple."
Ning Chengyuan took a closer look and realized that they were a pair. The jade patterns on the two anklets were different, one was engraved with phoenix and the other was engraved with phoenix.
Ning Chengyuan touched the white jade, thinking absentmindedly that Xuan Jiu's fair feet would look great with a red rope tied on them...
So Ning Chengyuan immediately bought the pair of anklets.
After shopping, Ning Chengyuan took Xuan Jiu back with large and small bags.
Ning Chengyuan looked very happy, and Xuan Jiu seemed to know what he was happy about. Thinking of what the stall owner said to Ning Chengyuan, he felt quite complicated. But Ning Chengyuan didn't tell the truth, so he couldn't be so shameless as to ask. Did someone buy it for him...
When they were about to return to the yard, Xiao Lang ran out to greet him. Knowing that Ning Cheng was far away and had no time to pay attention to him, he went to circle around Xuan Jiu again. Xuan Jiu was scared to death and didn't care that Ning Cheng was far away. Running forward, Little Wolf chased after him even more excitedly. Ning Chengyuan was so angry that he shouted from behind, "Slow down! Little Wolf, you fucking stop!"
The little wolf was stopped by the roar, but Xuan Jiu accidentally got caught on a stone under the snow, and fell down with a plop.
Ning Chengyuan yelled and hurriedly caught up with him, dropped the things in his hands and helped him up, "How are you, Xiaojiu? Have you..." Before he finished speaking, Ning Chengyuan saw Xuan Jiu raise his face, Ning Chengyuan couldn't help but burst into laughter when his face was covered with snowflakes. He quickly stretched out his hand to wipe his face. Xuan Jiu hissed twice, "Oh my knee hurts!"
After Ning Chengyuan heard this, he didn't even bother to laugh, and quickly picked him up on his back. Xuan Jiu was startled by his sudden move, "What are you doing!"
Xuan Jiu himself felt that he had only broken his skin a little, so there was no need for him to carry it.
But Ning Chengyuan seemed to turn a deaf ear and insisted on carrying him back to the yard. He carried Xuan Jiu into the house before putting him down. Grandma came out from the back room to greet him, "What's wrong?"
"Xiaojiu's leg was injured. Grandma, please get the ointment out quickly!"
Xuan Jiu couldn't help but said: "It's okay, I just broke my skin."
"How can it be okay? Just wait a moment. Grandma will go get it right now."
After his grandmother went to get the medicine, Ning Chengyuan told Xuan Jiu and ran out to pick up all the things thrown outside the courtyard. After entering the house, he saw Xuan Jiu had rolled up his trouser legs, all the way to his calves. The knee was scratched and there was some bleeding. Ning Chengyuan felt very distressed just looking at it, but he couldn't help but say to him, "I told you to slow down..."
Grandma brought a basin of water over and said, "Xiao Yuan, help Xiao Jiu clean the wound."
When Ning Chengyuan came over with a wrung wet handkerchief and held his legs to help him wipe it, Xuan Jiu felt a little guilty in front of his grandmother and reached out to take away his wet handkerchief, "No need. I can just do it myself.”
