Su Jiu smirked and threw him a glance, before walking forward to knock on the door. Her voice involuntarily became gentler, probably because of the serene atmosphere surrounding the area.
"Is anyone inside?"
Very soon, an elderly woman walked out of the house. She stood behind the wooden gate, peering at Su Jiu and Ji Yuxian. "Who are the two of you?" she asked.
"We're just passing by. It's late, and we're thinking of seeking shelter at your place for the night. Is that inconvenient for you?" Ji Yuxian held Su Jiu's hand and answered politely.
"Oh!" The elderly woman immediately smiled amiably. She looked back and shouted, "Old man, there are guests!"
"Ah?" An elderly man walked out from behind the door. He had a head full of white hair and appeared to have problems with his hearing. He looked up and tilted his head as he threw them a glance, before saying with a smile, "We have guests! Please come in quickly!"
