Chapter 411: A tiger in trouble is bullied by a chicken
the next day.
Qiao Xi woke up in the master bedroom, still half asleep. After a while, she realized she was in the countryside. She felt the bed beside her and found it was already cold.
She frowned and thought about how she felt Huo Xingzhou got up in the middle of the night while she was drowsy last night.
He has no habit of getting up at night.
Qiao Xi changed her clothes and walked out of the room. A cool breeze blew away all her sleepiness. She didn't see Huo Xingzhou and Lao Chen in the room, so she washed up quickly and went to look for them.
As soon as I walked out of the yard, I saw Lao Chen standing next to the Lincoln.
"Old Chen."
Qiao Xi shouted.
"Young Madam, you're awake."
Qiao Xi walked closer, looked at him and said, "Are you alone? Where's Xingzhou?"
"Young Master was called away by Aunt Chunhua. She said she made some specialties from Moon Village for us to take back. Madam, breakfast is ready and is placed on the stone table in the yard. You can have some first."
"You haven't eaten yet? Then I'll wait for you guys."
Qiao Xi looked at the pile of fresh vegetables, country eggs, various dried goods, and a rooster that was clucking fiercely beside the car and said, "These things were sent by the villagers last night. Why did you take them out of the trunk?"
Old Chen smiled innocently: "I want to clean it up again."
"Then I'll help you."
"No! No!" Old Chen hurriedly stopped her and said, "Just leave these things to me, Madam, you don't have to do anything. Look, the young master is here!"
Qiao Xi turned around and looked over. Huo Xingzhou was holding a bulging plastic bag and a plate of hot pancakes.
He handed the plastic bag to Lao Chen, then naturally took Qiao Xi's hand and walked into the yard.
"These are the breakfasts Aunt Chunhua prepared for us. Old Chen cooked millet porridge this morning." There is still some food stored at home, which can last for a while.
Huo Xingzhou pulled her to the stone table, took out bowls and chopsticks, and served her a bowl of warm porridge.
The villagers like to set up a small stone table in the yard so that they can eat breakfast and dinner in the cool breeze in the summer evening.
Seeing how skilled he was, Qiao Xi couldn't help but laugh out loud: "You can survive in the countryside."
Huo Xingzhou took a sip from the bowl slowly and said, "As long as you want to live, you can survive anywhere."
"Did you go thieves with Lao Chen last night?"
Qiao Xi stared into his eyes for a long time and said.
There were red bloodshot under his eyes, and Lao Chen's eye circles were dark blue, and it was obvious that he hadn't slept well.
It must not have been an illusion last night, he really got up in the middle of the night.
Huo Xingzhou paused and said, "I'm not used to sleeping here. Let's get up and walk around."
"Then I'll come by myself next time. You can stay in Haicheng."
"no."
Huo Xingzhou looked at her tenderly and said, "I will still come with you."
Qiao Xi curled her lips and said, "Hurry up and have breakfast. After that, we'll go back to Haicheng as soon as possible. You still have to work on the Future City project. Don't waste time here."
"good."
If we waste any more time, someone will die of pain.
Huo Xingzhou ate his breakfast leisurely. After finishing his breakfast, he tidied up the small yard casually before leaving.
Qiao Xi looked back at the familiar little house, filled with emotion. It held her memories for over twenty years, but now everything had changed. No one would be waiting for her here anymore.
"Let's go."
Qiao Xi held Huo Xingzhou's hand tightly.
"Um."
Old Chen opened the car door and said attentively, "Master, Madam, please get in the car." He glanced at Huo Xingzhou and added, "I've packed everything in the trunk. Nothing is left behind."
Huo Xingzhou looked at him and understood what he meant.
Qiao Xi and Huo Xingzhou sat in the back seat. The smells in the car were mixed, so she immediately opened the window.
The black-feathered rooster seemed unhappy and was still clucking in the trunk.
It also seems to have the taste of stinky mandarin fish and sour bamboo shoots.
"They're too enthusiastic." Qiao Xi said awkwardly, "Hubby, does the smell bother you?"
"Won't."
Huo Xingzhou put his arm around her shoulders and said, "This is all their thoughtfulness. Food raised in the countryside is nutritious and healthy. Aunt Qian will definitely like it."
His little miracle doctor has a keen sense of smell.
If these things didn't emit various smells, she would definitely smell the blood.
Old Chen chuckled: "Young Madam, I especially like sour bamboo shoots! I also love snail noodles, have you ever tried it?" He stepped on the accelerator and the car drove away from Moon Village.
Qiao Xi shook her head: "I haven't tried it."
When she was in school, every time she passed by such a store, she would quicken her pace and hold her breath.
Old Chen grinned and said, "That's a heavenly delicacy. You must try it if you get a chance. It smells bad, but you can't stop eating it. There's a jar of pickled bamboo shoots in the trunk. I'm going to ask Aunt Qian to make a stew of pickled bamboo shoots and lamb, and some snail noodles."
He thought it was delicious.
Good stuff!
Qiao Xi smelled the particularly sour smell in the air and couldn't imagine what it smelled like.
I just think Lao Chen’s taste is quite strong.
Huo Xingzhou closed his eyes and pretended to sleep. He really didn't sleep well last night. Seeing this, Qiao Xi didn't say anything. She leaned in his arms and closed her eyes to rest quietly.
In the trunk.
It was dark.
Zhong Yi suppressed his anger and curled up in the small space!
Damn Huo Xingzhou, this is how he came up with the idea of taking him back to Haicheng!
He was surrounded by fresh vegetables and various local specialties. The smell of pickled bamboo shoots in a small jar was so pungent that he felt like he couldn't breathe. In front of him was a rooster with its wings and claws bound.
Its two green eyes look particularly majestic and ferocious.
Zhong Yi couldn't help but glare back.
“Chuckle!”
The little rooster lowered its head and pecked his hair hard.
“Cluck!”
It pecked at his hair again and again as if it was looking for food.
"hiss."
Zhong Yi gasped in pain. He was really mad to death.
A gentleman can be killed but not humiliated.
Huo Xingzhou!
It's hard to believe that Huo Xingzhou didn't do it on purpose!
There was a lot of sour, smelly, and living things in the trunk. The sour bamboo shoots and smelly mandarin fish had only appeared this morning. He also heard Lao Chen shamelessly asking the villagers for sour bamboo shoots.
How can there be such a thing in this world!
Zhong Yi was almost suffocating in the trunk, but he didn't dare to breathe deeply. The air he breathed in had an unbearable sour smell.
He made a note of Huo Xingzhou and Zhong Lingxiao in his heart!
After the car drove for a while, what was even more terrible was that the mighty and domineering little rooster broke free from the straw rope and started to jump around in the trunk.
A claw stepped on Zhong Yi's handsome face.
He gritted his teeth, this was too much to bear!
He grabbed the rooster's legs, and the rooster cackled incessantly, making sharp, terrified noises, flapping its wings and slapping him several times.
"yawn!"
He couldn't help but sneeze.
Qiao Xi woke up in shock and suddenly opened her eyes.
