Chapter 111 Transparent Stone
Mu Xi's heart skipped a beat and the iodine in his hand accidentally stained his fingers yellow.
Now even the most dull-witted person would realize that Zhao Yeqing was teasing him.
He pulled out a piece of tissue and wiped his hands casually, then his bony palms immediately grasped the troublesome white calf.
Mu Xi raised his eyes and saw the girl's eyebrows curved, her hands supported on the bed behind her, trying to shake the legs that he was holding tightly.
"Apply the medicine quickly."
The poison on his legs had just been disinfected and he was about to apply ointment. Mu Xi lowered his head and completed the final work without saying a word.
Seeing that the red color on the ear of the person in front of him had not faded yet, Zhao Yeqing seemed to be addicted to the game and was still thinking about doing something bad.
Mu Xi did not dare to speed up his movements and applied the ointment gently.
Zhao Yeqing hadn't realized the crisis yet, with a smug smile on his face, when suddenly someone put his calves down and pushed his body backwards.
The wrists of the resisting hands were completely grasped by Mu Xi with one hand. He pressed forward and used his other hand to support his body when they were ten centimeters apart, and did not get any closer.
Looking at the girl with her hair spread out under him, she bit her lips lightly, and her eyelashes trembled slightly.
Zhao Yeqing lay on his back on the bed, closed his eyes, and kept muttering to himself.
It’s over, it’s over, things have gotten out of hand.
A minute passed and I didn't dare open my eyes. My heart was pounding.
A man's voice sounded from above, "Are you still making trouble?"
Zhao Yeqing didn't even open his eyes and shook his head desperately.
Suddenly, the hand holding his wrist loosened, and the shadow in front of him disappeared.
Zhao Yeqing opened his eyes and saw Mu Xi's back walking out.
"You go to bed first, I'll go wash my hands."
Her heart was beating very fast, and after recognizing her emotions in the afternoon, she went out to calm down for a while.
Now the emotions that had finally calmed down are rising again.
She scratched her hair in annoyance.
This will only hurt the enemy by a thousand and your own eight hundred.
She gently dangled her medicated legs over the edge of the bed and moved the quilt inside.
Lying on the bed, thinking about it, I hugged the quilt to cover my face and screamed softly into the quilt.
The moonlight outside the window poured into the room as usual. Zhao Yeqing covered his face with the quilt, and the hot air he exhaled warmed his eyes. He fell asleep without waiting for Mu Xi to come back.
I don't know how long it was before the door was pushed open again.
Mu Xi walked in with the moonlight behind him. The person on the bed had calmed down in breathing. He went over and gently pulled the corner of the quilt to cover her belly.
I took a small stool and sat next to it.
Early in the morning.
Zhao Yeqing opened his eyes and looked at the sleeping bag opposite.
There was no one on the opposite side.
She picked up her phone and checked the time. It was just past six in the morning.
The wound on her leg showed signs of healing. She gently put her leg down and was about to get up.
Mu Xi opened the door, and seeing her movements, he took two steps forward and said, "Don't move."
The wound isn't too deep, I guess it shouldn't be so severe that I can't get out of bed.
She was about to retort when her legs went limp and she fell back onto the bed after having just stood up.
"Aren't rat snakes non-venomous?"
Mu Xi put the basin of water on the ground, "It will have some impact, just take it easy, don't be anxious."
He wrung out the towel in the basin and handed it to her, "Wash your face."
She obediently took the towel, wiped her face clean, and handed it back to him.
Zhao Yeqing found that Mu Xi was a little different, with a slight curve at the corners of his mouth.
I couldn't help but tease, "What are you so happy about?"
Mu Xi didn't care, picked up the basin and walked out, "I love to laugh."
Zhao Yeqing couldn't help laughing out loud.
The warm sunlight came in from the window, and the breeze made the clothes hanging behind the house sway.
The weather is really nice today.
She lay in bed until the afternoon, and when she woke up from a nap, she felt refreshed.
I stood up carefully and no longer felt weak.
He hopped to the door with one leg. Mu Xi was not at home. Only Hu Hu and Xue Bing were playing with three puppies in the yard.
Among the three puppies, the injured Xiaohua grew the fastest. She was only half a head shorter than Dahuang. All three have grown much bigger than Huhu Xuebing.
The two little leopards jumped up in the yard, first onto the fence, then onto the sheep pen shed, and then flew up to the roof along the sheep pen shed.
The three puppies ran around happily, sticking out their tongues.
Dahuang was lying at the door of her house. When he saw her open the door, he raised his head and wagged his tail happily.
Zhao Yeqing took a stool and sat at the door, stroking its head and coaxing it softly, "Are you guys watching over me? Thank you."
Dahuang followed her hand and rubbed it with his eyes closed.
When the three puppies saw her come out, they came over with the ball in their mouths and put it in front of her, sticking out their tongues and wagging their tails. When they saw that she didn't move, they raised their little paws towards the ball.
Zhao Yeqing pulled all three of them over and stroked them a few times. The dogs, who had just taken a bath last night, were clean and had fluffy fur, just like three little lions.
She grabbed the ball and raised her hands, three pairs of wet eyes staring at the sakura ball.
He let go of the ball and threw it hard, and the three puppies ran out.
The big yellow dog at his feet also trembled as if in stress reaction.
She touched Da Huang's head and said, "Do you want to play too?"
Dahuang just lay beside her and watched his children bring the ball back.
They played until the evening, and the sound of wheels on a cart was heard. Zhao Yeqing stood up and saw Xiaohong dragging a cart of red mud back.
Mu Xi helped push the cart from behind.
"so much!"
This truckload of red bricks is probably enough to build half a house.
Mu Xi took the rope from Xiao Hong, then wiped the sweat off his face with the towel around his neck. "No need to dig too much. A lot of the landslides have been exposed."
Then he took out a stone from his pocket and handed it to her, "Look what this is?"
Zhao Yeqing thought it was a flint when he first saw a white stone, but when he took it in his hand he found that it was somewhat transparent.
She held the stone up to the light, and it became translucent, allowing her to clearly see the cracks inside.
"Ah! It's calcite!"
Zhao Yeqing looked at Mu Xi in surprise, and saw him smile and nod, turning the stone in his hand over and over again.
Calcite is a kind of gemstone, and good quality calcite is as pure and spotless as diamond.
But what surprised her was not this, but that calcite is one of the associated minerals of limestone.
Doesn’t this mean that they no longer need to burn wood ash to make cement, but can instead use stronger limestone to make cement?
"And one little thing."
Mu Xi took out another stone from his pocket. It was an almost transparent calcite with a natural orange-pink tint.
“So beautiful.”
She took it carefully with both hands. The calcite was shiny and surrounded by a circle of small calcite.
Zhao Yeqing wanted to take it back and put it on the table, but she didn't dare to jump on one leg again, for fear that she would accidentally drop it and break the stone in her hand.
"Help me up."
She waved to Mu Xi.
Mu Xi was covered in dust and his hands were dirty. He took off his clothes, turned them over to reveal the lining, then put the clothes on his arm before reaching out for her to hold on.
