False Court
Chapter 575 Goodwill
Mina gave patient instructions, acting like an adult.
Clearly, she wasn't very tall herself, still a little girl, but she acted exceptionally mature and sensible.
"Here, take these and eat."
Su Mo, seeing the situation, handed over the paper bag filled with fruit.
Instantly, many of the children looked over eagerly.
"No, absolutely not. We haven't even properly entertained our guests; how can we accept their things?"
Mina shook her head repeatedly.
"Why worry about that?"
Winloss took the bag from Su Mo and directly took out the fruit, handing it out to the children present, one by one.
"Thank you, Sister!"
The children present happily accepted the fruit.
"Sister Winloss, is this really okay?"
Mina was momentarily at a loss.
"It's fine, it's nothing."
Winloss replied with a smile.
At that moment, a little girl of seven or eight years old called out, "Sister, Xiao Ruo wet herself again. Her diaper is soaked."
"Sister, Xiao Mila pooped, pooped in her pants..."
...
"Didn't I teach you all?"
Mina said, hands on her hips, sounding a bit angry.
However, after scolding them, she quickly went over to take care of it, but she was a little overwhelmed.
"Let's help out."
Su Mo coughed and turned to Winloss.
Winloss couldn't help but glance at Su Mo when she heard him say that. Most people would be repulsed by this, but she didn't expect Su Mo to be willing to help.
"Okay."
So the two of them stepped forward to lend a hand.
...
After a while of busy work, they finally managed to resolve the trivial matters.
Mina called out, "Everyone, go wash your hands and feet and go to bed."
Immediately, the children present obediently ran towards the bathroom.
At this time, Mina's grandfather came over with two cups of tea and said, "Come, have a cup of tea."
"Thank you."
Su Mo and Winloss accepted the tea.
Mina's grandfather turned to Mina and said wearily, "You entertain the guests well. I'm going to rest."
"Grandpa, go and rest quickly."
Mina quickly nodded.
Su Mo took a sip of tea and chatted casually with Mina, asking,
"Mina, are your father and mother not at home?"
Hearing Su Mo's words, Mina's previously optimistic and innocent face immediately dimmed. She replied in a low voice,
"They sacrificed themselves a year ago."
"I'm sorry."
Su Mo's expression froze, and he replied with a wry smile, not expecting that he would accidentally step on a landmine.
"It's okay, I'm already used to it."
Mina raised her head and squeezed out a bright smile.
Winloss reached out and touched Mina's head, saying with some emotion, "Ah, how can you support such a big family all by yourself?"
Mina lowered her head and said, "It's not entirely me supporting them alone. My brother works outside and sends back some money. Although Grandpa's health isn't good, he used to be an administrator in the recycling department, and his salary wasn't bad, but he had to retire recently. The most important thing is that I am now a formal combat member, with very high allowances and benefits. At least their school fees can be halved. If I can just hold on for a few more years, until they grow up, everything will be fine."
"You wouldn't have joined the army to support them, would you?"
Su Mo asked thoughtfully.
"No, I actually like it too."
Mina said somewhat insincerely.
Winloss shook her head and said, "If there were other options, who would want to risk their lives on the battlefield? Let's not talk about this. Mina, do you have anything to do tomorrow?"
"No, I'm on vacation recently."
Mina explained.
"How about this, will you take us to go around Green Gore City tomorrow? Of course, we won't let you accompany us for nothing."
Winloss asked tentatively.
"Sister Winloss, you don't need to pay. You saved me. I just don't know how to thank you."
Mina quickly waved her hand and replied sincerely.
"Alright then."
Seeing that Mina said so, Winloss didn't retort.
Su Mo pondered for a moment and said, "Since we're going shopping with Mina tomorrow, why don't we save the trouble of running back and forth. Can we stay here?"
"That's fine, but it depends on whether it's convenient for Mina."
Winloss was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, it seemed feasible.
"This is definitely not a problem. I'll clear out a room for you right away."
Mina agreed without even thinking about it.
"There's no need to go to so much trouble. We're not picky. We can sleep in the living room."
Su Mo replied casually.
"How can that be?"
Mina shook her head repeatedly.
"We're not here to cause you trouble. The living room is fine. You have wooden floors here, so it's comfortable to sleep on. If you insist on clearing out a room for us, we won't stay."
Su Mo said with a smile.
"Su Mo is right."
Winloss agreed, thinking that with so many children, clearing out a room would definitely mean making them sleep in the living room.
"Okay, then please wait a moment. I'll go prepare bedding for you."
After listening, Mina hesitated for a moment and finally agreed, walking towards the room.
Su Mo pretended to be bored and began to look at the objects piled up in the house. From the outside, the quality of the objects piled up inside the house was much better than those in the yard. But they weren't much better, and they weren't worth much at all.
Of course, that excluded the thing that Faker Devourer specifically wanted. Anything that it had its eye on was definitely priceless.
But to put it bluntly, if Faker Devourer hadn't reminded him, Su Mo would have probably only treated it as junk.
Winloss, seeing Su Mo watching the remains of the garbage piled up in the house with interest, asked with some doubt.
"Is there something wrong with these things?"
"No, I'm just taking a look."
Su Mo's heart skipped a beat. As expected of Winloss, he had only shown a hint of interest, and she immediately became alert.
"I thought you had made some special discovery."
Winloss said with a smile.
"How could there be any discovery? I just think a few of the collectibles are not bad, and I'm thinking of buying them."
Su Mo replied awkwardly. He was now in a bit of a dilemma. If he said he hadn't discovered anything, it would seem very suspicious if he later brought up the idea of the device.
After listening to Su Mo's words, Winloss fell into thought.
Su Mo's heart was slightly raised. He thought to himself,
"Could Winloss have also discovered something?"
At that moment, Winloss raised her head and showed a relaxed smile to Su Mo, saying, "I didn't expect that Su Mo, you are not only strong, but also have such a good heart. You're planning to use the excuse of liking something to help Mina indirectly, aren't you?"
"Uh, this..."
The expression on Su Mo's face became more and more unnatural.
"Okay, I don't object. On the contrary, I think your idea is very good."
Winloss looked at Su Mo with even more kindness.
