"The sound made by Xiao Sui?"
Ying Xixi got out of bed in confusion, lit a candle, held the candle, opened the door and went out.
Come to think of it, she didn't know where Xiao Sui slept.
[The host walked to the left. The male protagonist was sleeping on the floor in the main room.]
Upon hearing this, Ying Xixi went to the main room on the left and pushed the door open gently.
Xiao Sui's sobs and murmurs were more obvious in the quiet night.
Ying Xixi used the candlelight and the moonlight coming in from the window to clearly see Xiao Sui's appearance at this moment.
He slept on a random blanket on the floor, and the quilt covering him had been kicked away.
He curled up on his side, hugging himself with his arms, and there were obvious traces of tears in the corners of his eyes.
This sleeping position is the most insecure sleeping position.
Ying Xixi didn't know what Xiao Sui had experienced in the past that made such a tall and mighty man so sad and insecure in his sleep.
She placed the candle on the table, squatted down in front of Xiao Sui, and reached out to gently stroke his hair, comforting him.
Perhaps the comforting worked, Xiao Sui's originally frowned brows slowly relaxed and he slowly stopped sobbing.
Ying Xixi saw the tears in the corners of his eyes and wanted to take out a handkerchief from her bosom to wipe them.
But I found nothing.
By the way, her handkerchief was placed with the dirty clothes.
Ying Xixi had no choice but to wipe it for him with her fingertips.
She squatted for a while and her feet began to feel numb. Seeing that Xiao Sui was already sleeping soundly, she gently pulled the quilt over to cover him. When she stood up, she felt dizzy and almost fell on Xiao Sui.
Fortunately, she could reach the table with her hand, so she took a break and then quietly left with the candle.
After a while, the sky began to turn pale.
Ying Xixi was no longer very sleepy, so she went to the yard to wash up briefly.
Xiao Sui placed her dirty clothes, dirty quilt and other things in a basin next to the water tank.
Ying Xixi planned to go to the kitchen to cook something first, and then do the laundry after she was full.
"System, give me some strengthening pills. This body is too weak."
Ying Xixi muttered to the system in her heart.
[Okay, one health pill costs 100 points. Host, would you like to buy it?]
"purchase!"
After Ying Xixi swallowed the fitness pill, she immediately felt stronger and stronger. She could definitely climb five floors in one breath without even taking a breath.
Ying Xixi no longer felt dizzy or had weak legs, as if she was walking on cotton. She felt much better.
She went to the kitchen and looked at what was there.
There were rice, noodles, lard and so on, but there was only one cabbage, and no other vegetables.
Then she could cook some noodles and make some egg pancakes.
Ying Xixi rolled up her sleeves and prepared to get started, but was stumped at the first step.
How do you light the fire in this earthen stove?
She tried for a long time, but her face was blackened by the soot and she still couldn't light the fire.
"How do I do this?"
Ying Xixi muttered and stuffed more firewood in.
"That's not how fire starts."
Xiao Sui's helpless voice suddenly sounded, and Ying Xixi was almost startled.
She turned her head and saw Xiao Sui, scratching her head embarrassedly.
"Mr. Xiao, I'm sorry, I, I don't know how to make a fire.
Why don't you light the fire and I'll make breakfast."
Xiao Sui looked at Ying Xixi's face, which was blackened by cigarette ash, and couldn't help laughing.
"Hahaha, girl, you should go wash your face. The faces of the wild cats that come to my house to dig up firewood are not as dark as yours."
Ying Xixi: “….”
Ying Xixi went to the yard to wash her face. When she looked at the water, her face was indeed pitch black.
After she finished washing, she returned to the kitchen. Xiao Sui had already lit the fire.
"Mr. Xiao, let me cook."
Xiao Sui raised his eyebrows, not quite believing it, "You can cook?"
“I can make it, but it won’t taste as good as yours, sir.
If you'd like to try it, I can give it a try."
Ying Xixi is quite aware of her cooking skills.
The choice is in Xiao Sui's hands, it depends on what he thinks.
Xiao Sui put down the cabbage in his hand and made room, "Then let the girl try making it. I'm curious about what it tastes like since it's not as good as mine.
I'll control the heat, you cook, girl."
Ying Xixi: “….”
"Okay, I want to cook some noodles and make some omelets, is that okay?"
"Sure, it's still early, just a simple breakfast will be fine."
Xiao Sui didn't have any requirements, so Ying Xixi did what she wanted.
With Xiao Sui controlling the heat, Ying Xixi prepared breakfast without any trouble.
Two bowls of clear soup noodles, topped with a few slices of bok choy and sprinkled with chopped green onions.
There are also a few crispy and fragrant fried egg pancakes.
Ying Xixi felt that the food she made looked pretty good.
I just don't know how it tastes.
Xiao Sui set up a small wooden table in the yard and brought out the dishes and chopsticks.
The two sat opposite each other, looking at the noodles in front of them.
"Mr. Xiao, how about trying it?"
Ying Xixi said this, waiting for Xiao Sui to taste it.
Xiao Sui took a big bite and chewed it.
"Not bad. I didn't expect that the girl, a noble lady from the capital and a legitimate daughter at home, could actually cook."
These words sounded like praise, and a smile appeared on Ying Xixi's pretty face.
"Actually, I don't know how to make a lot of them. I've seen others make some and I remember the recipes, but I haven't tried them myself."
"Well, at noon, come and order some food, and tell me how you want to cook it, and I'll try it.
There is a vegetable garden in the backyard, you can go and see if you need anything later."
When Xiao Sui talked about food, his eyes brightened up.
Ying Xixi agreed with a smile.
After the two finished their meal, Xiao Sui got up to clean up the dishes.
"Since the girl made breakfast, I'll wash the dishes."
"Okay, then I'll trouble you, sir."
Ying Xixi put away the small wooden table and planned to wash the pile of dirty clothes and sheets.
She found that although the adobe house where Xiao Sui lived was shabby, it had all the necessary things.
She brought a small stool and started washing clothes.
After washing for a while, Ying Xixi heard some noise coming from the side.
When I turned around, I saw a black wolfhound that looked like both a wolf and a dog jumping over the fence and coming in.
The man and the dog just happened to meet each other's eyes.
When the wolfhound saw a stranger appear in the house, it immediately took a defensive stance and growled at Ying Xixi.
"roar."
Where did this two-legged beast come from?
Could he be here to steal something?
Ying Xixi: “???”
"I'm sitting here washing clothes, how could you see that I came here to steal?
Hey, you dog, why do you slander people as soon as you come here? "
Ying Xixi put down her clothes and started arguing with the wolfdog unconvinced.
The wolfhound was stunned for a moment and shook its ears.
"roar?"
Can this two-legged beast understand what I say?
