Chapter 1195: Not Afraid Even of Blood
Inside the house, everyone was laughing. However, Ruan shi's eyes were sharp, and she saw Shu Yu outside. She immediately exclaimed, "Ah Yu is back!"
Shu Yu quickly walked forward, and except for her younger brother who was still studying at the academy, everyone else gathered around her.
An Ning hugged Shu Yu's waist and raised a jade pendant in her hand, "Second sister, second sister, this was given to me by Master. An Ning has a master now."
"Yes, An Ning will study diligently under Master Zhao from now on." Shu Yu patted her head and smiled.
With Shu Yu's return, the entire Lu family was delighted. Although they had already heard a lot about the happenings in the capital from Zhao Xi, they still gathered around her, asking all sorts of questions.
But Grandma Lu noticed that it was getting late and waved her hand, chasing everyone away, "Alright, it's already noon. Ah Yu rushed back in a hurry and must not have had lunch. Don't crowd around here, go have your meals."
The others had already eaten, thinking that Shu Yu might have been delayed at the estate for some time, and it would at least be in the afternoon when she returned. They didn't expect her to arrive just after noon, so they knew she must not have had lunch.
Shu Yu and the others were then surrounded and taken to the flower hall.
An Ning clung to Shu Yu for a while before being brought forward by Grandma Lu.
Then, she saw Xiao Songle.
The little girl stared at him with round eyes and cautiously asked, "Xiao Lele?"
Shu Yu was quick to notice that Xiao Songle had once again started to hide behind her, lowering his head and not looking at An Ning.
Now, Shu Yu was certain. Xiao Songle wasn't afraid of adults arguing or fighting, but he was afraid of children.
She thought of the little boy's previous living conditions. Those children from the Hong family were a bit older than Xiao Songle, and influenced by Hong's daughter-in-law, they weren't friendly to Xiao Songle.
If they had hurt Xiao Songle before, then it wouldn't be surprising for him to be afraid when facing other children.
Sometimes, the younger the child, the more direct and ruthless the malice they released, and the greater the harm they caused.
In contrast, adults, due to aunt Hong's presence, might not have directly laid hands on Xiao Songle. At most, they would scold him or not give him food. Their main target was Hong's mother-in-law.
As for Hong's mother-in-law, she was even more protective in Xiao Songle's eyes.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law would have their arguments, and from Xiao Songle's perspective, it seemed like a rare and common occurrence.
As a result, he wasn't afraid. He even seemed to watch with great interest when Zhou Qiao's Aunt and Li Shi were arguing.
After all, during this journey, he had been traveling with them for a long time and hadn't seen such a scene in a while. Perhaps he missed it.
Thinking of this, Shu Yu felt that she should discuss with Master Zhao later to see if it was possible that Xiao Songle didn't speak because of his fear of children.
However, An Ning felt a little upset when she saw Xiao Songle avoiding her.
She tugged at Shu Yu's sleeve and asked in a soft voice, "Second sister, does Xiao Lele not like me?"
"It's not that. He's just in an unfamiliar place and feels uneasy."
An Ning suddenly understood, "So that's why. Then, I can totally understand him. I used to be like that too. Whenever I saw strangers, I wanted to hide myself. But now, I'm not afraid anymore. I'm not even afraid of blood."
Very brave.
Her master had praised her like that just now.
Shu Yu nodded repeatedly. Before An Ning could say more, Grandma Lu pulled her away by the collar.
"Don't disturb your second sister while she's eating."
