Chapter 506: Discussing the Division of the Family (Part 3)
"Mother, just agree to it. Just like Meihua said, as long as the two of you are of one mind, your life will get better and better."
After hearing what Liu Meihua's father said, Liu Meihua's mother finally nodded in agreement.
"Zhang Xu, I'm back." Lu Xiaoxiao shouted towards the main room as soon as she entered the yard.
"Are you cold?" Zhang Xu opened the door to the main room and asked her after hearing the little girl's voice.
"I was moving around the whole time, so I wasn't cold."
"Then go inside quickly while your body is warm, so you won't catch a cold easily."
"good."
"Drink some water." Zhang Xu poured her a cup of warm water after seeing the little girl sitting on the kang.
Lu Xiaoxiao took a sip of the water Zhang Xu poured for her and asked Zhang Xu, "Is the carrot and beef bone soup in the pot ready?"
"It's ready, but I didn't add any salt."
"I'll add the salt now, and then I'll cook a pot of rice. We'll have beef bone soup and rice in the evening."
"You take a rest for a while before going, there's no rush." Zhang Xu said after hearing the little girl's words.
"I'm not tired. I didn't do anything when I went to Liu Meihua's house. I just watched a play."
After hearing what the little girl said, Zhang Xu did not try to stop her, but he followed the little girl towards the kitchen.
After Lu Xiaoxiao opened the lid of the pot, she added more than a spoonful of salt to the soup, then stirred it a few times with a hot spoon and planned to turn on the fire to let the soup boil for a few minutes. However, as soon as she closed the lid of the pot, she saw Zhang Xu sitting behind the stove and making a fire.
"Zhang Xu, why did you come here to light the fire? What if you get your wound hurt?" Lu Xiaoxiao walked up to Zhang Xu and snatched the fire tongs from his hand.
"My wounds have healed and I'll be fine as long as I don't do heavy work or strenuous exercise."
"Really?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked Zhang Xu with a suspicious look on her face.
"It's true. If you don't believe me, I'll show you the wound now." Zhang Xu said helplessly after looking at the little girl.
"Then unbutton your clothes so I can see your wound."
Zhang Xu was stunned when he heard the little girl's words. He didn't expect that the little girl really wanted to see his wound.
"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and unbutton your clothes." Lu Xiaoxiao urged Zhang Xu.
"I'll unbutton my shirt now." After Zhang Xu finished speaking, he immediately reached out and unbuttoned his shirt.
After Zhang Xu unbuttoned his clothes, Lu Xiaoxiao went forward to check the wound and found that the wound had recovered just as Zhang Xu had described. So she handed the fire tongs to Zhang Xu and said, "Light a fire."
Zhang Xu took the fire tongs handed to him by the little girl and pulled the corner of his mouth helplessly. Then he put the fire tongs on the ground and quickly buttoned his clothes, then picked up the fire tongs on the ground and continued to make a fire.
After Lu Xiaoxiao asked Zhang Xu to light the fire, she took about a pound of rice from the cupboard, washed it, and soaked it in water. When the radish and beef bone soup in the pot was ready, she scooped up the soup and put the soaked rice into the pot to steam.
"Zhang Xu, watch the rice in the pot. I'll take half of the radish and beef bone soup to the cowshed for the master." Lu Xiaoxiao said to Zhang Xu after steaming the rice.
"good."
When Lu Xiaoxiao came to the cowshed with the basket, she saw that there was no light in the house. She thought that maybe something happened to the masters, so she quickly knocked on the door of the cowshed and asked, "Is anyone there?"
"Why are you here?" Foreman Xie opened the door and saw Xiao girl standing outside, so he asked.
"Second Master, please let me in first." Lu Xiaoxiao said to Foreman Xie.
