Chapter 10 The Wife Can Continue

Soon everyone stuffed a lot of things into their bags and left in a hurry, fearing that Qiao Su Luo would bring up what they had said before.

Qiao Su Luo looked at these things. Although there were not many things, they were all thoughtful gestures from everyone.

She also knew that their cat village lived in a remote area, everyone was relatively poor, and they didn't have enough to eat on a daily basis, so it was already very good that they could come up with these things.

She didn't expect that just by teaching some first aid methods, many people might not use them, but everyone thanked her sincerely.

At this moment, she felt the long-lost warmth, which made her no longer unfamiliar with this world.

She felt warmed up and said, "This place is actually not bad."

The system said, "Of course. The people here are simple and honest, with pure minds. They are sincere and warm to others, without any intrigue. The host will definitely like this place in the future."

Qiao Su Luo looked at the things placed at the door and a smile appeared on her face.

"I was wondering what to eat for dinner. I can't just eat konjac. Now I have a plan for dinner."

Just then, Que Hongjin came back carrying the chopped firewood.

After finishing his work in the afternoon, he went up the mountain to chop firewood, otherwise there would not be enough firewood at home.

Although his shoulder blades would ache when he worked because of his broken wings, the pain would become numb over time and he could bear it.

When he came back, he happened to see the bright smile on Qiao Su Luo's face, which seemed filled with sunshine, dyeing the surrounding shadows into warm colors.

It was as if her smile brightened the whole world, reminding people of the rainbow after the rain, which made the wet grass come alive.

She had never smiled like this before, and at this moment her eyes were as clear as if she was holding a pool of clear water.

Qiao Suluo seemed to sense something. She looked up and saw Que Hongjin holding a sickle and carrying firewood at the door. She was suddenly stunned.

His expression was slightly startled, not because he was surprised, but because he felt that carrying firewood seemed inconsistent with Que Hongjin's picturesque beauty and gentle temperament.

I felt that he should be a young man from a wealthy family and should not be doing such simple and rough work.

It is said that he used to be the most distinguished heir of the Peacock Family. He grew up in an environment of luxury and received education with the family's resources allocated to him.

It is quite sad that he has to work here with his weak body and still cannot get enough food.

I don’t know if he feels unwilling and unbalanced.

Que Hongjin looked at Qiao Suluo and naturally noticed the change in her eyes.

Her eyes were so bright that they seemed to be able to speak, allowing people to easily understand what she was thinking at the moment.

Tsk, he doesn't need pity or sympathy.

Qiao Su Luo felt that the two of them were a little awkward, so she spoke first to break the silence, "These are gifts from everyone in the village."

"So dinner is taken care of."

"Multi-grain noodles and green onions can be used to make scallion pancakes, and coarse rice can be cooked and used with eggs and green onions to make fried rice..."

It’s great to have these ingredients, I can have a full meal.

Que Hongjin's gentle expression moved slightly, and she could tell a way to cook everything.

Seems to be extremely knowledgeable about food.

What is her origin?

Qiao Su Luo brought the things into the house, and Que Hong Jin put down the firewood and joined in helping.

The door of Bai Qianluo's room was ajar. Qiao Suluo guessed that he was probably sleeping inside. He usually needed to sleep for a long time after taking the cold medicine she gave him.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Qiao Suluo didn't bother to make stuffed toys anymore, but made dinner first.

She first washed the rice and put it in the pot, while Que Hongjin took the initiative to take hay and firewood into the kitchen to help light the fire.

Qiao Su Luo hurriedly picked out the dried mugwort and said, "Don't use this as firewood. I have a use for it."

Que Hongjin didn't ask her what she was going to use it for, and automatically picked up the mugwort and put it aside. He picked up some dry grass again and said, "Then use these to start a fire."

Qiao Su Luo was about to nod, but suddenly she found a few rushes among the hay.

"Is this rush?"

Qiao Su Luo took a closer look and saw that it was indeed rush. "Where did you get this from?"

Que Hongjin looked at Qiao Suluo's excited expression and explained, "Some grass cut from the river."

Cut it and dry it in the sun to use as kindling.

Rush? It's a very strange name.

She always seems to know things that others don't.

After a pause, Que Hongjin added, "There are many along the river in the valley."

Qiao Su Luo's eyes lit up. "Then you light the fire first. I'll go cut some grass."

Weave some extra straw weaving with rushes tonight, and sell it at the county market tomorrow.

Most of the things here are woven from bamboo and some are woven from rush, which you may find novel and beautiful.

Seeing Qiao Su Luo rushing to the river, Que Hongjin grabbed her wrist and said, "Don't go yet. If you need it urgently, I'll boil the pot and go get some."

After saying that, when Que Hongjin came to his senses, he realized that he had just grabbed her wrist.

It's very strange that there is no feeling of disgust or rejection as I had imagined.

Just now, he didn't want her to go to the river. What was he worried about?

Oh, how could he possibly worry about her feet slipping and falling into the water.

Que Hongjin quickly withdrew his hand and pressed his eyebrows with his fingers to calm himself down quickly.

Qiao Su Luo naturally didn't know what was going on in Que Hong Jin's mind. Her mind was full of thoughts about how to weave beautiful straw.

"Okay, thank you for your help then."

Since Que Hongjin took the initiative to take on this task, she could take the time to see how the konjac was doing.

She went to the yard and found that the konjac had been left to stand.

Qiao Suluo went to the kitchen to get a knife and cut the konjac into small pieces so that it would be easier to cook.

She poured water into another pot in the kitchen and put the konjac cubes in it, while Que Hongjin watched the two pots cooking together.

Then, Qiao Su Luo started washing and chopping the green onions.

…

Qiao Su Luo stir-fried a dish with slices of cooked konjac, and then made egg fried rice with coarse rice, eggs and green onions.

After cooking, Qiao Suluo washed her hands and knocked on Bai Qianluo's door. There was no response. She hesitated for a while, but decided to open the door and go in to take a look.

After entering the room, she found Bai Qianluo lying quietly on the bed, sleeping.

"Bai Qianluo?"

He was silent, and Qiao Su Luo couldn't help but reach out to check and found that he was still breathing, which meant that he was fine.

She reached out and touched his forehead again to see if he had a fever.

But it just happened that at this moment, Bai Qianluo suddenly opened his eyes and woke up.

And her hand was still on his forehead, as if she was going to do something wrong.

"Um, ahahaha, I...I didn't mean to do that. I didn't mean to do anything to you...I just called you and you didn't wake up. I was worried that you might have a fever, so I wanted to check on you..."

Qiao Su Luo tried hard to explain, but for some reason, under Bai Qianluo's quiet expression, she felt more and more embarrassed the more she explained.

He looked as if he didn't believe what she said at all.

Qiao Su Luo was so depressed that she wanted to become autistic. It was all because of the bad impression left by her previous life. Even if she said she had changed, they wouldn't believe her.

When Bai Qianluo looked at her, there seemed to be a glimmer of light in his eyes, but it disappeared in a flash.

He said coldly, "My wife doesn't need to explain. She is Qian Luo's wife. No matter what she wants to do, it will be Qian Luo's honor. Qian Luo will cooperate."

"The wife can continue."
