Chapter 223 Cold



Could you please not bring up such a disappointing thing?

Li Xu was speechless.

I was originally in the mood to chat, but this sentence put it to a halt.

After that, he just responded intermittently.

While eating, I suddenly heard someone behind me say, "Is it going to snow again?"

When I looked up, I saw that the sky had become gloomy.

Li Xu cursed inwardly.

He was freezing these past few nights, and every night duty felt like a tribulation.

Especially because of the lack of sleep caused by the rush, I felt even colder.

We finally waited until the snow had almost melted. How are we going to get through this if it comes again?

Not only him, everyone's face turned ugly.

"Don't just stand there. Even if it snows, it won't affect today that much. Come on and eat. After we're done, let's go back."

Only after hearing Master Qi's voice did everyone come to their senses.

Everyone quickly finished their meal, packed up, and got in the car.

Not long after, the sound of howling cold wind could be heard outside, and the weather became increasingly gloomy.

Listening to the noise, Li Xu mumbled, "This is really unlucky. It looks like it's really going to snow."

At this time, he was driving Liu Gang's car, holding two fruit candies in his mouth to cheer himself up, his eyes fixed on the road ahead, not daring to be careless at all.

Liu Gang nodded in agreement. "It's really unlucky. You should sleep a little longer tomorrow. Old Song is already showing cold symptoms. If he gets too sick, you'll have to drive for him the day after tomorrow."

A bitter look appeared on Li Xu's face.

He was not afraid of driving, but he was afraid that Master Song and his apprentice would catch a cold from him.

After finishing his shift the night before yesterday, Su Weidong had some cold symptoms and a runny nose.

I didn’t expect that Master Song also had this symptom today.

Fortunately, it is not serious now and he can still drive back.

But if the weather gets cold again, and Master Song's illness becomes so severe that he becomes drowsy, then Li Xu will have to go even if he doesn't want to.

Li Xu felt his scalp tingling at the thought of sitting in the same cab for several days with someone who had a cold.

Liu Gang saw his expression and seemed to guess what he was thinking. "Don't worry, didn't the master and apprentice agree? Go back home tonight and buy some medicine. Maybe you'll be fine tomorrow."

Li Xu sighed, "I hope so."

In fact, he knew that this possibility was not very high.

Generally speaking, it takes several days to recover from a cold, and they still have to work night shifts afterwards.

If you are blown by the cold wind for half the night, you won’t know when you will recover.

Now he doesn't want anything else, he just hopes that Master Song's condition will not become more serious.

The car was shaking and everyone didn't return to the car team until evening.

And it didn't snow all day, which made them very happy.

After parking the car, everyone picked up their things, said hello, and started walking home.

When he was almost home, Li Xu took out some Laba porridge ingredients from the space and put them in the bag.

Seeing him enter the house, everyone in the Li family started to get busy.

Some poured water, some served food, and some even started to ask about the guests' well-being.

Then Li Ping asked, "Xiao Xu, have you had any trouble on the road these days?"

"It's okay, it's safe. I'm just a little cold and tired. I think I'll sleep all day tomorrow."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and then Sun Xiu spoke, "You can sleep as long as you want. I'll leave some food for you. You can eat when you wake up."

"Yes, yes, is there anything else you want to eat? I'll prepare it for you in advance." Hu Guilan said while hugging the child.

Li Xu took two mouthfuls of rice and said vaguely, "A normal meal is fine. Oh, sister-in-law, I have some Laba porridge in my bag. You can make some for me tomorrow and we can have it tonight. Mom, please take some to Xiaohong's place tomorrow morning. I don't know when I'll need it by the time I get up, so it's not very convenient."

He didn't know whether the Du Feng brothers would come tomorrow afternoon, nor did he know how long he would have to sleep.

Besides, it is a bit inconvenient to carry this thing in your hand while walking during the day. It would be better to ask Sun Xiu and others to deliver it to you tomorrow morning when they ride their bikes to work.

Both of them agreed immediately and took out the Laba porridge from the bag.

Seeing the same things as last year, everyone's faces were filled with joy.

If not, forget it.

But now that the thing is right in front of me, why should I not be happy?

Sun Xiu said, "Your friend is really amazing. He saved this good thing for you. By the way, did you have porridge on Laba Festival?"

Li Xu smiled and said, "I drank it. We made this porridge specially for you. We reduced our meals for this reason."

"Just reduce it. The rice balls you brought are enough for us to eat."

Sun Xiu was not too worried about this, because she knew that Li Xu had brought a lot of rice balls and would not go hungry.

After thinking for a moment, he continued, "I heard that your car team had a fight with someone earlier. Are you okay?"

"It's nothing. I got hit on the face a few times, but it healed in two days."

Hearing this, Li Chen immediately came forward and stared at Li Xu's dark face. After a long time, he showed a disappointed expression.

Li Xu was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted, squinting his eyes and looking at him cheerfully, "Third brother, you seem very disappointed?"

"Second brother, you saw it wrong. That was my expression of concern for you." Li Chen said righteously.

Seeing that he did not admit it, Li Xu did not say much, but just kept this account in mind.

After finishing the meal, they chatted for a while, and Li Xu suddenly felt tired.

Seeing this, Li Jiakang asked him to go back and rest first.

Li Xu washed his body with the hot water he had prepared in advance and immediately felt refreshed.

Well, it was mainly because of the cold.

He hurried to his bed and shivered for a while before he felt warm.

After a while, I fell asleep.

I did wake up a few times in the middle, but fell asleep again after a while.

When I was completely awake, I realized that it was getting dark outside the window.

After checking the time on his watch, Li Xu sat up from the bed.

My goodness, it’s almost 5 o’clock in the afternoon.

This sleep was indeed long enough.

After getting dressed and washing up, he saw Li Ju looking at him curiously, "Second brother, how come you can sleep so well?"

Li Xu reached out and touched her little head. "Brother is too tired. When you grow up, you will also be able to sleep like this."

"I don't like to sleep." Li Ju replied, then said, "Second brother, sit down and I'll give you a back massage."

Of course Li Xu was more than happy to do so and immediately sat on the stool to enjoy it.

Although the force was not great, it still made Li Xu feel so happy that she felt that her love for her was worth it.
