Chapter 125 Hug (Part 2)

When Cui Hejin looked down at Jiang Zhiluo, his eyes became increasingly deep and charming, somewhat different from his usual gentle look.

It seemed as if a dangerous aura hidden in his body surged up.

This is how Jiang Zhiluo felt at the moment.

Jiang Zhiluo blinked, gently tugged at Cui Hejin's sleeve, and said obediently, "Brother~"

The voice is gentle.

Jiang Zhiluo thought, maybe Cui Hejin didn't like him calling her husband, so she called her brother?

But she couldn't see what Cui Hejin was thinking.

"I don't want to obey."

Cui Hejin rubbed his eyebrows with his hands and sighed helplessly, feeling that there was nothing he could do to her.

But he still insisted: "Since your hand is injured, don't sew clothes. I will do whatever you want to do."

Seeing Cui Hejin's serious and persistent look, Jiang Zhiluo pursed her lips and said, "Have you ever sewn clothes before?"

“No, you can learn.”

Jiang Zhiluo actually knew that Cui Hejin was very smart and he learned things very quickly.

Although Jiang Zhiluo knew that Cui Hejin might really be able to learn how to make clothes, she still didn't want him to do it.

"But I don't want you to do it."

Cui Hejin asked her in a low and good-tempered voice, "Are you afraid that I won't be able to do it well?"

Jiang Zhiluo shook her head, "No."

Cui Hejin looked at her gently and patiently, as if wanting to know why.

But Jiang Zhiluo just smiled and said nothing.

He won't understand.

She just wanted to be good to him and the people he cared about.

This dress is made for Mrs. Cui, he should be happy.

In his previous life, he was a filial son and his mother was also very good, but his mother died early, which was a pain and regret in his heart.

In this life, she wanted to help him make up for his regrets.

Want to be nice to his mother.

This way he will be happy too.

Cui Hejin looked at the smile blooming on Jiang Zhiluo's beautiful face, and felt a faint aura of joy.

It seemed as if she was looking through him.

Cui Hejin's expression became serious, and he said, "It's getting late, let's go to bed first!"

Since persuasion is impossible, let her rest and sleep first.

Jiang Zhiluo nodded, indeed feeling a little sleepy.

She was still thinking about going to the dock to sell chili meat sauce early tomorrow morning.

It is not available in wooden barrels now, so it can only be sold in bulk.

I'll have to find someone to make some custom wooden jars that can hold half a pound of chili meat sauce at a time.

Chili con carne would also look more upscale if it had better packaging.

Jiang Zhiluo thought of this and decided to go to the town tomorrow to see if there were any wooden jars for sale, or if there was any place where she could order wooden jars.

A place that makes wooden bowls should also be able to make wooden jars.

I don't know if I can make it according to the picture she drew.

She also wanted to write a slogan on it.

Although there is no brand awareness in this era, making labels and slogans can also increase people's recognition.

However, Jiang Zhiluo knew that there was no patent protection here, so she could imitate it at will.

So if her chili con carne is imitated too many times, she will switch to another business.

Anyway, she has a lot of ideas in her mind.

Thinking about this, Jiang Zhiluo lay down on the bed and fell asleep quickly.

In the middle of the night, Jiang Zhiluo felt something in a daze. When she opened her eyes, she saw Cui Hejin covering her with a quilt.

He moved very gently, as if afraid to wake him.

Jiang Zhiluo was in a daze because she was dreaming about scenes from her previous life. She was a little confused for a while.

She reached out her hand in a daze, her eyes red, and she couldn't help but hug him gently, burying her head in his arms and continued to sleep.

Cui Hejin was caught off guard when being hugged, and instinctively tried to push away the person in his arms.

But when he heard the shallow breathing sound and looked down to realize it was Jiang Zhiluo, his body tensed even more.

After a long while, Cui Hejin stretched out his hand and placed it on her head, wanting to help her lie down on the pillow, but after hesitating, he pulled his hand back and could only let her hold him like this.

Cui Hejin sighed softly and lay there, his body stiff and motionless, staring at the beams, completely sleepless.

Jiang Zhiluo, on the other hand, felt a familiar breath and was no longer trapped in the dream of scenes from her previous life. She slept more peacefully.

…

A good night's sleep

When Jiang Zhiluo woke up the next day, Cui Hejin was no longer on the bed.

At dawn, Cui Hejin got up, washed, and went to fetch water. After filling the jar with water, he went to the mountain to chop firewood.

Jiang Zhiluo didn't think much about it. She got up and started washing up.

Mrs. Cui got up early and had already prepared breakfast.

After Cui Hejin came back, the three of them had breakfast, and Jiang Zhiluo got up as usual to clean up the dishes.

Cui Hejin watched her movements and held her down, saying, "Your hand is injured, don't move."

Jiang Zhiluo blinked her eyes and said, no, her tiny wound had healed long ago.

"It's okay, actually."

As she spoke, Jiang Zhiluo took off the gauze bandaged on her finger, and the small needle wound was healed.

"Look, it's done."

Cui Hejin looked down at her fingers, then at her eyes.

Looking at her innocent and clear eyes, Cui Hejin's gentle eyes showed a hint of meaning.

Jiang Zhiluo was confused, "Is there something on my face?"

"Did you sleep well last night?"

Jiang Zhiluo thought about it and nodded, "Yeah, very good."

Looking at Cui Hejin's clear and meaningful eyes, Jiang Zhiluo's heart trembled, "Did I sleep poorly last night?"

"Did I disturb your rest?"

Seeing her nervous and worried look, Cui Hejin smiled slightly and said, "No."

Jiang Zhiluo finally breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."

Seeing that Cui Hejin had already cleaned up the dishes, Jiang Zhiluo could only prepare to go to the dock to sell chili pork sauce.

Madam Cui said, "I'll accompany you."

Jiang Zhiluo said, "Mom, I can go by myself this time."

Madam Cui said, "How can that be possible? It will be so hard for you to do it alone."

Jiang Zhiluo explained with a smile: "Mom, selling chili meat sauce is not hard. I don't need to fry it and sell it at the same time. I can handle it."

"Mom is at home steaming and drying snow red beetroot."

"Besides, the house is already more than half built, and I have to worry about things over there too."

"Besides, my mother is at home. If someone comes to buy chive seeds, she can be there too."

Mrs. Cui suddenly felt as if she also needed her to stay at home.

Mrs. Cui thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll stay home first."

"Don't tire yourself out going to the dock, and be careful."

Although she knew that her daughter-in-law was capable, Mrs. Cui still felt a little worried and gave her some instructions.

Jiang Zhiluo smiled gently and said, "Mom, it's okay. There are many old customers at the pier and they all know us. Nothing will happen."

At first, they were doing brown sugar business at the dock, and during this period, they set up a stall at the dock to sell pot cakes, which made many people at the dock and some people who worked on the ship familiar with them.

Sometimes, even if people don’t buy anything, they will still say hello and talk to them.

When Jiang Zhiluo was about to go out with her things, Cui Hejin came to her.

He handed her the dagger in his hand.

Jiang Zhiluo looked at the sharp dagger and her heart trembled, "What is this?"
