Chapter 752: Home is the Best (Part 7)
After taking a shower, Lu Xiaoxiao looked at the time and it was 3:30 in the afternoon. She planned to sleep until 6 in the evening and get up.
When Lu Xiaoxiao woke up, she saw that it was already dark. She looked at the time and it was already past midnight. She didn't expect that she had slept for so long. Zhang Xu should have been asleep at this time, so she didn't leave the room to disturb him.
Lu Xiaoxiao touched her rumbling stomach, then she entered the space and went to the warehouse to get a bowl of century egg and lean meat porridge and a bag of pickled mustard tubers. It was not good to eat too much in the middle of the night, so she decided to just have a simple meal.
After eating, Lu Xiaoxiao was not sleepy at all, so she planned to practice. This trip to Harbin made her sense of crisis even stronger. She knew that the world was much more complicated and dangerous than she thought.
Only by constantly working hard and increasing her own strength can she live a fearless and free life.
At seven o'clock the next morning, Lu Xiaoxiao withdrew from her practice, then she put on her clothes and left the space.
After Lu Xiaoxiao came out of the space, she opened the door of the room and saw that Zhang Xu was not in the main room. She went to the kitchen and the yard to look, but she didn't see Zhang Xu. She knew that Zhang Xu must have gone up the mountain.
When Lu Xiaoxiao returned to the living room, she saw a note under the bowl on the table. She knew it was left by Zhang Xu.
Lu Xiaoxiao picked up the note and looked at it. There was a sentence written on it: "The rice is in the pot, remember to eat it."
After breakfast, Lu Xiaoxiao planned to go to the captain's house. She would be away for more than half a month this time. No matter what her relationship with the captain was like now, she had to go to his house to tell him that she was back.
"Knock knock knock... Knock knock knock... Is anyone home? I'm Lu Xiaoxiao." Lu Xiaoxiao came to the captain's house and shouted while knocking on the door.
When Aunt Caihua heard Lu Xiaoxiao's call, she immediately went to the yard to open the door, and then asked Lu Xiaoxiao to come into the main room to talk.
After Lu Xiaoxiao followed Aunt Caihua into the main room, she saw the captain smoking a pipe on the kang, so she said to him, "Captain, I'm back."
"It's good that you're back. The weather is getting worse and worse. It's best not to travel far in the future."
"I understand, Captain."
"Xiaoxiao, did you pass by the supply and marketing cooperative on your way back?" Aunt Caihua asked Lu Xiaoxiao.
“Yes.”
"Then have you seen fish being sold in the supply and marketing cooperative?"
"I haven't noticed this, but I saw it sold in the supply and marketing cooperative in Harbin. But because it's almost the New Year, there are a lot of people buying things. If you don't go early, you won't be able to buy anything."
"Then I'll go to the county supply and marketing cooperative tomorrow to see if I can buy some fish."
"Auntie, don't people in the village know how to catch fish? Why do you still want to buy some?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked Aunt Caihua in confusion.
Aunt Caihua heard what Lu Xiaoxiao said and said, "The fish in the village are caught once every other year, otherwise the fish in the river will be caught to extinction."
Lu Xiaoxiao nodded when she heard Aunt Caihua's words, then handed the pound of glutinous rice noodles in her hand to Aunt Caihua and said, "Aunt, this is what my uncle asked me to bring to you."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Aunt Cauliflower did not reach out to take the thing that Lu Xiaoxiao handed to her, but looked at the captain, asking with her eyes whether she should take it.
The captain saw Aunt Caihua's look and nodded, then said, "Please accept the gift, old lady. This is a gift from Xiaoxiao's uncle."
When Aunt Cauliflower heard the captain's words, she reached out and took the thing that Lu Xiaoxiao handed to her.
