Chapter 108 Happy New Year!
Bai Lu took off running outside.
As a result, it bumped into a cold, hard, and solid wall of flesh.
My nose hurt from the impact, the tip of my nose turned red instantly from the soreness, and my eyes were filled with tears in an instant.
Xiao Cheng was only focused on blocking people, not expecting her to run so fast, so he quickly pulled her into his arms and patted her back as a matter of habit.
He patted her head and asked, "Are you alright?"
What do you think?
Enraged, Bai Lu used every last bit of her strength to twist his waist, but the flesh was too firm to twist through. So she tried twisting his arm instead, twisting it with all her might.
I need to vent my anger after being hit!
We must make the big boss feel the same way and let him know how shameless this kind of surprise attack is!
Whether it was shameless or not, Xiao Cheng didn't know; he only felt a small paw scratching his arm.
I didn't feel much.
Not to mention the pain.
But he let out a muffled groan, released the struggling person in his arms, lowered his head, and bent slightly over.
He gently rubbed her reddened nose as if to comfort her, "Don't run so fast next time."
Bai Lu turned away immediately, not wanting to talk to him.
Who suddenly appeared!
Who ran to the door and blocked her way?!
Is it the devil?!
The devil turned to her and gave a plausible explanation: "Wang Cuihua is not home."
Wang Cuihua went to sell chestnuts.
Business has been pretty good lately. Wang Cuihua usually eats a quick lunch in Dashi Town before returning home after selling chestnuts.
Bai Lu reluctantly accepted the fact, but did not approve of his sudden action, and remained silent.
I slung my shopping basket over my shoulder and went out to buy groceries.
The chestnuts weren't ready yet, and Xiao Cheng couldn't leave, so he could only watch her figure recede into the distance until she disappeared.
I'll go back and start making roasted chestnuts.
The market vendors were quite familiar with Bai Lu, and after yesterday's incident where the bearded man overturned the stall, the vendors had a particularly good impression of Bai Lu and would greet her whenever they saw her.
"My little darling, you've finally come to buy groceries! I've been waiting for you for ages. What are you planning to cook today?"
"Stir-fried green peppers with chili peppers".
The market vendor: "..."
Bai Lu stopped in front of the mountain of chili peppers, picked up a small iron basin from the side that was used for serving vegetables, and began to carefully select the chili peppers.
Picking green chilies and then red ones, the small iron basin that could hold more than ten kilograms of chilies was soon full.
The woman's lips twitched slightly: "My goodness, are you planning to buy chili peppers for tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and the day after that?"
Bai Lu handed her the small iron basin to weigh it, and replied with a smile, "I'll finish cooking it today."
Although the older woman loved making money, she couldn't bear to see the little one suffer from the pain of being spitting fire, so she gently reminded him, "These chilies are very spicy."
"Eating too much at once is not good. It will make your mouth swollen, red, and painful from the spiciness, and it will also make going to the toilet uncomfortable."
Bai Lu said calmly, "It's okay, my whole family can handle spicy food."
The older woman felt a little sorry for the little girl's family.
In the end, I followed my little darling's wishes and weighed out twelve pounds of green and red peppers to pack up for her.
Bai Lu bought some other vegetables.
When they got home, Xiao Cheng wouldn't let her stir-fry the chili peppers; to be precise, he wouldn't let her cook.
"Why can't I stir-fry chili peppers? I want to eat chili peppers!" Bai Lu tried to grab the spatula back, but Xiao Cheng wouldn't let her.
They even made her start the fire, giving a reasonable explanation: "Xiao Wei has blisters on the corner of his mouth."
The blisters on the corners of your mouth are definitely caused by internal heat.
Eating chili peppers will only make the condition worse. If you accidentally break a blister, the pain will be so intense that you won't be able to eat.
Bai Lu couldn't bear to see the little flowers of the motherland suffer, so she had to postpone stir-frying green peppers and chili peppers.
Moreover, she shouldn't eat spicy food these days; if she does, she'll get a stomachache, which would be asking for trouble.
As soon as Xiao Wei got home, he was rewarded with a cup of tea, which contained small pale yellow and pale green flowers in an enamel cup.
Bai Lu told him, "This is honeysuckle given to you by the uncles and aunts of Xiaojia Village. Drinking it as tea can clear heat and detoxify, reduce internal heat and relieve wind-heat. You have blisters on the corners of your mouth and feel hot. Drink some honeysuckle tea every day and you will get better soon."
After she finished speaking, she went back to the kitchen to start a fire.
Xiao Wei stared blankly at the enamel cup, glancing down at the cooling tea again and again. He had blisters on the corners of his mouth.
When did this happen?
How could he not know?
Xiao Wei ran back to the house with the enamel mug in his hand, opened a drawer and took out a palm-sized mirror. He ran to the window, opened it to let the light in, and looked at his lips.
I didn't see any bubbles.
He opened his mouth again, pursed his lips, and carefully examined every part of his teeth, including the upper and lower gums.
I still haven't noticed any blisters on my lips.
But Bailu said he had blisters on the corners of his mouth and was feeling hot. Bailu wouldn't lie, so she brewed him some tea to cool him down.
Could it be that the room wasn't bright enough? Xiao Wei took a small mirror and went outside to check his reflection in the sunlight in the front yard.
She even stretched out her little finger, turned up her upper lip, and then turned her lower lip out to examine it carefully.
It was finally determined that the mirror was not clear enough, which is why he couldn't find the bubbles.
Listen to Bailu, drinking some cooling tea will do the trick.
After dinner
Bai Lu went back to her room and made a note of today's shipment of roasted chestnuts, as well as the total sales amount from various channels.
After taking notes, I opened the drawer, put the notebook back, and took out my study materials to read.
Xiao Cheng went out.
They were back in less than an hour.
The sound of things being dismantled came from the front yard.
Bai Lu went out with her books in her hands and bumped into Xiao Wei, who was also leaving at the same time, holding a pen in one hand and an exercise book in the other, looking very curious. They walked out together in tacit understanding.
I saw it after taking only two steps.
The big boss sat on a wooden bench in the yard, holding an electric fan in his hand, ruthlessly dismantling it.
Bai Lu ran to his side with the book in her hands, and after seeing that it was indeed a new electric fan, asked, "Are you going to take the electric fan apart?"
