566 Acknowledging Junior Brother
Of course, she was willing to accept such a handsome, warm, and lively young man.
Su Xiaolu nodded. “Sure. Our Masters are good friends. We’re about the same age. We can also be good friends. You call me Senior Sister, and I call you Junior Brother. We’ll be good friends.”
Elder Niu and Old Wu had a good relationship. Although the old man sometimes had a bad temper, Elder Niu did not care at all. It was obvious that he knew the old man’s personality very well.
Because they knew each other, the other party’s temperament was already clear.
Little Niu was obedient and good-looking, so she was also very willing to be friends with him.
“Senior Sister, are you hungry? I can cook for you.”
Little Niu volunteered and became more expressive.
He looked like he really knew how to cook. Su Xiaolu nodded. “Okay then, thank you, Junior Brother. My culinary skills are not very good. I’ll help you.”
Su Xiaolu couldn’t bear to let Little Niu cook, but he really looked like he knew how to cook.
Su Xiaolu helped out and the two of them cooperated well.
In less than an hour…
Su Xiaolu looked at the pile of food and pondered for a moment. She said doubtfully, “Junior Brother, do you and your Master usually eat this?”
Little Niu nodded. “When there’s nothing delicious to eat, we, master and disciple, will eat this. Master said that this is called the original taste of life. It’s not troublesome.”
In any case, it could be cooked in one pot. Not only could it be eaten for a long time, but it was also easy to prepare.
“Junior Brother, let me bring you out for a walk. Let’s go eat something delicious.”
Su Xiaolu suggested. She didn’t want to eat this now. It was even worse than what she made. She felt that she was instantly close to Little Niu. There was actually someone in this world whose culinary skills were worse than hers. This was more than just lacking talent. He simply didn’t have this skill. He couldn’t even cook it…
Little Niu was very happy, but he was also a little shy. He said shyly, “Senior Sister, I, I can’t treat you to food. I don’t have money…”
He was poor. His pockets were cleaner than his face.
Su Xiaolu put her arm around Little Niu’s shoulder and smiled. “It’s fine. I’ll cover for you, but I’m a little curious. Why don’t you have money? You and your Master shouldn’t be poor.”
Old Wu was very rich. He casually carried tens of thousands of taels of silver with him, and there were many treasures hidden in his lair.
Elder Niu and Little Niu’s abilities were not inferior to her master’s. Feng Shui metaphysics was the favorite thing of high-ranking officials and nobles. Logically speaking, they should also be very rich. However, Little Niu was a very honest child. One look at his shy and uneasy appearance and she knew that he wasn’t lying.
Little Niu’s face was a little red, and he said softly, “Senior Sister, Master and I are both fated to be unlucky. We’re poor and sick. Although Master and I travel the martial world all year round, we really don’t have money. If we had money in our hands, it would only bring us trouble…”
“In the past, I was young and insensible. I couldn’t stand being hungry and hid silver on me. Once I did this, we would definitely encounter trouble. We almost lost our lives many times. Bandits don’t show mercy.”
Little Niu felt helpless and melancholic. Speaking of which, those days at sea were when he felt very blissful. He could eat his fill and even have meat every meal.
Su Xiaolu did not expect him to be so miserable. For a moment, she did not know what to say. She had to believe in fate.
She tugged at Little Niu’s sleeve and said, “It’s alright, then follow me from now on. I guarantee that you’ll be full every day.”
Little Niu was very happy. “Thank you, Senior Sister, as long as you don’t mind my bad luck.”
“Junior Brother, did Uncle-Master give you this name because you’re easy to raise?”
Su Xiaolu thought of Little Niu’s name and asked curiously. Perhaps the two of them had gotten closer, Su Xiaosu was more relaxed when she asked him questions.
Little Niu nodded honestly. “Yes, Master said that my life isn’t good. Even livestock are easier to raise than me. I’m Little Niu, and Little Niu is me. I’m easy to raise.”
Su Xiaolu brought Little Niu out. She did not walk very quickly and kept walking shoulder to shoulder with Little Niu. She was dressed as a man. Even if they held hands, it would not feel inappropriate.
Su Xiaolu asked softly, “Junior Brother Xiao Niu, what’s your Master’s name?”
Little Niu’s face was full of respect as he shook his head solemnly. “Senior Sister, please forgive me for not being able to say it. People like us have worthless lives, and our names don’t sound good either. Everyone usually doesn’t say our names. You can call me by my name, Senior Sister, but I can’t tell you Master’s name.”
It was precisely because they were unlucky that everyone felt that it was easy to raise them by giving them cheap names. Therefore, their names were not that nice. Everyone only used their surnames.
It was normal for Su Xiaolu not to know this. She only understood when he said so.
“I’ve offended you. Junior Brother, don’t worry. I won’t ask again. Let’s go and eat delicious food.”
Su Xiaolu apologized first and indicated that she understood. Some things were not suitable for her to know.
She treated Xiao Niu as a friend, so she wouldn’t ask again after this. She really cared about him and wouldn’t do anything to make things difficult for him after knowing his bottom line.
Su Xiaolu brought Little Niu to eat dumplings by the roadside, pancakes of various seafood, and candied hawthorn.
Little Niu liked to eat them very much.
“Junior Brother, aren’t you picky?”
Su Xiaolu felt that Little Niu was very simple and cute.
Little Niu shook his head. “I’m not picky, as long as there’s food.”
It was impossible for him to be picky about food. It was already good enough that he had something to eat.
Su Xiaolu also liked to eat and dabbled in a wide range of things. The two of them were like-minded. As the two of them ate the little sugar figurines, she smiled at Little Niu and said, “Junior Brother, when you go back to the capital with me in the future, I’ll let you try my mother’s cooking. And my Auntie’s cooking is super delicious. Unfortunately, my sister has to live in the palace. Otherwise, you can try her cooking too. They’re all super delicious. Whether it’s fish or mountain goods, they’re all delicious.”
“Really? Then I must try it when I have the chance.”
Little Niu was very happy and looking forward to it. What Su Xiaolu said seemed to form an image in front of him.
“Junior Brother, now that the spiritual energy has recovered, are you going to start learning martial arts?”
Su Xiaolu tilted her head and asked. After asking, she bit off a piece of candy and narrowed her eyes in satisfaction. It was really delicious.
Little Niu shook his head. “I can’t learn martial arts. Master said that this is fate, and this can’t be changed. However, there are many opportunities in the world now. If we’re lucky, we can encounter some good things. In the future, when we encounter danger, we can use them to save our lives even if we don’t have martial strength.”
“That’s a pity, but it doesn’t matter. I’ll keep an eye out. If you find something suitable for you in the future, I’ll find them and give them to you.”
Su Xiaolu smiled and said. She remembered Little Niu’s words. In the future, when she found something suitable, she would think of Little Niu immediately.
Little Niu smiled brightly and warmly. “Thank you, Senior Sister Xiaolu.”
He smiled, revealing his white teeth. His two canine teeth made him look cute and warm. Most importantly, Little Niu was good-looking.
