Chapter 1824 The Dusky Wife (2)

Finally, because Duan Xu was generous and the two of them were good-looking, he gave them a big white radish. Ruan Jiaojiao liked to eat radishes very much, and she smiled with her eyes narrowed while holding the free big white radish.

The elder sister was so moved by her smile that she stuffed another radish into her arms and said, "If you want to eat radishes in the future, just come to your elder sister's place. They are grown by your elder sister's family and are guaranteed to be sweet."

Ruan Jiaojiao did not refuse, and thanked them sweetly while holding two big white radishes.

After leaving the elder sister's place, the two walked inside. There were some meat stalls inside, but for some reason, compared with the cleanliness and tidiness of the vegetable stalls, this side seemed much dirtier and messier. Not only was the ground wet and black, but the smell in the air was turbid and a bit nauseating.

Duan Xu was naturally reluctant to let Ruan Jiaojiao go over, so he let her stand on a clean paper floor and let her guard the vegetables she had just bought while he went over to buy meat.

Ruan Jiaojiao really didn't like the smell over there, so she waited there obediently.

Just as Duan Xu had walked a short distance, Ruan Jiaojiao saw several children in their teens, each holding a wooden stick, squatting in front of a corner, laughing and poking the debris in the corner with the stick.

From time to time, there would be bursts of barking from the debris, like the howling of a puppy, which sounded particularly shrill.

Ruan Jiaojiao hurried over to stop them: "What are you doing?"

The children were all around ten years old, the age that cats and dogs hate. When they saw the beautiful young lady who suddenly appeared, they were stunned at first, and after reacting, they deliberately raised their chins, trying to scare people with a fierce look. As a result, before they could make an expression, they met the eyes of Duan Xu who was walking behind her from the other side, and they were so scared that they immediately acted like birds and beasts and ran away.

Ruan Jiaojiao was suspicious, was her deterrent so strong?

"Didn't I tell you not to run around?" Duan Xu came from behind and asked helplessly.

Ruan Jiaojiao looked back and saw Duan Xu coming. She immediately pulled him to the side of the pile of debris and said, "Brother Xu, there seems to be a puppy being bullied by a few kids."

When she said this, she squatted down in front of the pile of debris, tilted her head and looked inside, and she was indeed met with a pair of blue eyes.

It was just too dark inside, so she couldn't see how big the puppy was. She could only vaguely see that the owner of the eyes seemed to be trembling slightly.

Ruan Jiaojiao stretched out her hand and waved at it.

When the little thing saw her behind, its eyes lit up a little. When she saw her wave, it immediately ran out, but when it saw someone standing behind her, it turned its head and went back in, and this process took no more than three or four seconds.

"Brother Xu, it seems a little afraid of you, why don't you step back a little?" Ruan Jiaojiao turned around and said to Duan Xu.

Duan Xu glanced at the little thing in the pile of debris, but he was not as strict as usual with Rourou, and stepped back a little.

Ruan Jiaojiao went to coax the puppy out again. The little guy must really like her, and soon ran out again. His little body was round and looked the size of a man's fist. His fur was gray and his eyes were blue. He should be less than a month old.

"Is this a stray dog?" Ruan Jiaojiao wanted to get closer to her, but she didn't dare to. Finally, under her coaxing, the little thing trembled and approached her, muttering to itself in confusion.
