Chapter 92 You look so pretty when you smile
Zhou Shaoyu made marks on the trees as he walked.
Seeing him walking away, Xie Yanyan immediately took off her shoes. Her ankle was already swollen, so she took out the medicated oil from the space pharmacy, sprayed it, and rubbed it hard. It hurt a lot, but she didn't say a word.
After rubbing it, I felt my ankles were warm.
He took out a military shovel from the space and used it to push away the leaves and branches in a relatively open area nearby, creating a large safe area.
First dig a hole in the ground, and then dig a fire path diagonally on one side of it according to the wind direction.
Pick up many large pieces of earth and build a tall conical earth kiln above the hole.
Light a fire and burn wood on the fire path.
There are many branches in the forest. No one has picked up these firewoods for a long time, so they are numerous and dry.
She grabbed a handful of leaves to use as kindling, and lit them up with small branches and dry sticks. A huge fire raged, and the flames licked the soil above. Soon the kiln was burned red.
She stopped cooking and took out many sweet potatoes from the space supermarket.
She shoveled a hole in the top of the earthen kiln and threw the sweet potatoes in one by one, smashing some of the red soil in the kiln to let it fall down. To prevent it from being too cooked, she put another layer of burning charcoal on top and then threw in another layer of sweet potatoes.
Smash the earthen clods on top and bury the sweet potatoes.
To prevent the food from not being cooked through, she simply shoveled dry soil from the side and covered the entire hole.
After finishing, she took out a glass of iced cola from the space and drank half of it in one breath.
"Hiccup~"
Comfortable!
The leaves in the woods were dense, and the sun occasionally set, making the scene mottled and not as scorching as outside. She didn't sleep all night, and sat on the straw mat, dozing off against a tree.
Just in case, she placed her favorite smart alarm robot from her previous life by her side, and set its patrol range to a radius of 100 meters.
Fell asleep in a second and slept soundly.
She vaguely returned to school. The high school entrance exam was coming up soon, and her grandparents told her that her parents would come back to pick her up during the summer vacation.
Her parents were in politics, and in order to protect her, she was sent to live with her grandparents at a very young age and was never allowed to face the media.
Every time she saw her parents, it was on TV.
Mom and Dad are finally coming to pick her up. If she can get into the best high school, her parents will definitely be very happy.
After she finished her mock exam that day, the teacher called her to the office. His face was very heavy, and after a long while, he said to her: "Xie Yanyan, it turns out that your parents are... The teacher has always known that you are a strong child..."
That day, she found out that her parents were both gone. They were murdered during a campaign speech by agents arranged by others. They died miserably.
I cried my heart out, and my parents never came back.
After her parents passed away, she would never cry again.
Without the person who loves you, who are you crying for?
Both her grandparents were agronomists. After she entered high school, both old people consciously guided her to study agronomy, an industry that at least could provide her with a peaceful life.
Perhaps it was because losing their only son was too sad. After Xie Yanyan was admitted to the Agricultural College, he did not finish college and both his grandparents passed away.
From that time on, Xie Yanyan would never smile again. Even though she had won numerous awards and became a leading figure in agricultural science at a young age, she would never smile again.
All your relatives are gone, who are you smiling for?
…
"Please move away immediately, stop 50 meters away!"
"Swish, swish, swish, go away, please go away immediately, otherwise I may use special means to make you leave!"
"Please don't try to get close or resist, and don't do anything radical, or you will pay the price for your actions!"
Xie Yanyan was awakened, and dazedly reached out to touch the robot beside him: "Ruru, stop making noise!"
"Master, someone is trying to get closer."
Xie Yanyan opened his eyes and found that the robot was becoming more and more capable. Someone was indeed coming, but was still 150 meters away.
However, fortunately, it barked happily on its own initiative, otherwise it would have been exposed.
The person who came was Zhou Shaoyu.
She patted Ru Ru and transferred it into space.
Looking at the alarm time in her space, she had slept for less than half an hour.
I didn't get up immediately. I was in the middle of a sound sleep and was woken up. I felt lazy and limp.
After checking that there was nothing wrong with her, she went back to sleep leaning against the tree.
Zhou Shaoyu strode over with big and quick steps, and saw her profile sleeping against the tree from afar.
She looks very well behaved when she's sleeping, and... very pretty!
He slowed down his pace, walked over quietly, and stopped 20 meters away from her.
Was there a fire on the ground?
Who has been here?
Xie Yanyan didn't open his eyes and said lazily: "You're back?"
"Yeah, I'm back." Zhou Shaoyu looked around, "Who seemed to be talking just now?"
Xie Yanyan didn't respond. Who was talking here? Her cute classmate Ru Ru!
Zhou Shaoyu put down the package and basket in his hands, sniffed, and smelled the scent of medicinal oil.
"Have you used the medicine for the wound?" While washing her face, he noticed that she walked with a limp, so she bought a small bottle of medicine in the town after leaving the woods.
"Well, I brought a small bottle of medicated oil with me. I applied a little and rubbed it in." She handed him the remaining half bottle of Bao Xin An oil.
Zhou Shaoyu took the small cylindrical iron box and opened the lid. Inside was a small cylindrical glass bottle with a strong smell of brown medicinal oil.
The box says the effects: used to dispel wind and relieve pain, open the orifices and reduce swelling, promote blood circulation and relieve itching, treat colds and stuffy noses, dizziness and headaches, and muscle sprains.
Zhou Shaoyu handed it back to her: "This medicated oil is better than the wound medicine I bought."
He left the forest and went to a nearby town to buy clothes and shoes. He also bought two sets of clothes for Xie Yanyan according to her size.
I also bought some food and ointment.
"Have you ever burned a fire?"
"Yeah, I stewed a few melons."
When Zhou Shaoyu mentioned melon, he immediately thought of sweet water melon. Can that melon be stewed?
Xie Yanyan was too lazy to say more, so he pointed at the pile of dirt on the ground and said, "Dig it out, it should be cooked."
The sweet potatoes she stewed are the ones with a high sugar content, the medium to small ones, and there are also a few small fragrant potatoes. They will definitely be cooked after stewing for 30 minutes.
There was an iron hammer on the ground. Zhou Shaoyu guessed that it was brought by Xie Yanyan from underground.
Zhou Shaoyu used a shovel to scrape off the dirt and carefully dug out the sweet potatoes.
A mouth-watering sweet smell wafts out!
"What's this?"
"sweet potato."
He wanted to ask her where she came from, but he kept his mouth shut. He could almost guess the answer.
"Dig from the Earth"
"Found in the woods"
“Searching for the Earth”
…
She will speak when she wants to.
There were more than a dozen roasted sweet potatoes on the ground. Zhou Shaoyu asked, "Do we eat them directly? Do we need to wash them?"
Baked sweet potatoes, can they still taste good after being washed?
She took a piece, gently tore off the outer skin, and demonstrated to him: "Peel the skin and eat the inside. Be careful of the heat."
Sweet potatoes are very sweet and sticky, and they are so delicious after being baked and stewed like this.
It tastes better in winter.
Zhou Shaoyu imitated Xie Yanyan and peeled the sweet potato. As soon as the sweet potato was put into his mouth, his lips and teeth were filled with a sweet fragrance.
"It's delicious." He said with a smile.
Xie Yanyan looked at him. He was the eldest son of the King of Nanhai, the only king of a different surname, but he did not have the arrogance of a child of an official, nor the psychological darkness and sorrow of a hostage.
He is in high spirits, free and easy, especially his smile, which is beautiful and warm, like spring flowers and summer sunshine.
Looking at him, the whole world becomes bright.
You look so pretty when you smile
Like spring flowers
Put away all the worries and sorrows
Blow away everything
You look so pretty when you smile
Like summer sunshine
The whole world, all the time
Beautiful like a painting
"You look so pretty when you smile", nice, nice! Suitable for singing to Zhou Shizi.
I will add another chapter today. Although I am not allowed to update too quickly, I will just add it secretly.
Let's have something warm, earthen kiln baked sweet potatoes ((c) When I was in college, I roasted them with my classmates during a spring outing. They were fragrant and sweet, and they tasted black! I miss them so much.
Spring is here, and kids can also roast sweet potatoes by making an earthen kiln themselves. It’s not difficult and is a lot of fun.
Why not try it? Roasted sweet potatoes in an earthen kiln, are you tempted?
