I came to the children's room with some trepidation. Looking at Xiao Shitou playing with toys under Xiao Ai's care, I couldn't help feeling happy. Xiao Shitou was becoming more and more happy like a normal child.
In the past, little Shitou was so thin that he was just skin and bones. He was often bullied by his cousins.
Not having enough to eat, not having warm clothes, being bullied, and having no care from adults, the young heart doesn’t know how miserable it is, and it’s like an autistic child all day long.
Especially since the original owner was so clueless all day long and had no idea how to take care of a child, Little Stone was just like a weed struggling to survive. His survival was entirely due to his own ability...
But now that he's becoming more sensible, will he be able to remember the secrets of this space? They say children start to remember things at the age of three, but looking at the clever little Shitou, who is only two years old, she can't guarantee it. What if he grows up and understands things, will he suspect his mother is a monster...
Chu Xi, who was thinking about something, walked to the front of Little Stone unconsciously. The little guy looked up at his mother.
"Mother!"
Chu Xi felt extremely sweet in her heart when she heard the name "Mom". She didn't seem to notice the changes in her. She probably focused on the toys.
Chu Xi had no choice but to leave the space. Many people outside were busy helping their family with work, and she couldn't hide at home all the time.
He took Xiao Shitou out of the house and started to get busy.
First, he boiled a large pot of sugar water and sent it to the new yard next door, inviting everyone to take a rest.
Seeing Shi Peng so busy that he didn't even bother to wipe the sweat off his face, Chu Xi quickly handed him a bowl of sugar water, which Shi Peng happily drank in one gulp.
Chu Xi stared at her man's three-dimensional facial features, which were as handsome as if they were carved by a knife. He was dirty and sweaty, but he exuded a strong masculine aura. She was stunned...
When Shi Peng handed the cup to him, he realized that the person in front of him hadn't moved. He looked up at his wife, who was staring at him intently and a little obsessed. He couldn't help but laugh and touched her head again. Chu Xi came to her senses and ran away immediately with a red face and a pounding heart. There were so many people here, it was so embarrassing...
The two people, who were developing a tacit understanding like a couple, did not realize that their relationship was becoming closer and closer.
Just thinking about his wife's eyes and her increasingly fair skin, Shi Peng suddenly felt his heart beating faster, and his face, which had been tanned in the past few days, also turned red.
When Chu Xi returned to the old house, she found Shi Xiaomei coming over and standing in the yard looking around. Since she saved her that time, their relationship has become better and better, and they can be considered best friends. However, as a lone ranger, the original owner did not leave any good friendship for herself.
"Ah, Chu Xi, what did you eat? How come your skin color has become so good, so white and rosy, and as tender as a young lady in the city. Ah, this hand..." As Shi Xiaomei said this, she touched it.
Chu Xi was so frightened by her sudden movement that she almost pulled her hand back. Did she forget something? She had makeup on her face, but not on her hands.
Fortunately, Shi Xiaomei doesn't come here often, otherwise she would have suspected something.
"This is the vanishing cream your brother Shi Peng bought in the big city. Maybe it will be more effective..." Chu Xi said a little guilty.
"Besides, I haven't done much work recently. I've been taking care of the children, doing housework, and making clothes for them. My hands and face have gradually turned white. They were whiter than before I went to the countryside."
After a lot of deception, Shi Xiaomei was finally fooled into no longer being so suspicious.
Shi Xiaomei also felt that things were different when this man was at home.
Chu Xi, who used to be in a mess every day, is now starting to enjoy life.
"By the way, are you free this afternoon? I'm going to make some big buns for the neighbors to take back home as a token of my gratitude for helping me build my house in this cold weather. If you're free, why not stay and help?"
"OK!"
Shi Xiaomei agreed immediately.
"Then you can help me watch over Xiao Shitou first. I'll go get the meat I bought yesterday."
After entering the inner room, Chu Xi pretended to open the cabinet, but actually took out two large pieces of high-quality pork belly from the space. There was no other way, people nowadays like more fat and not lean meat.
The two of them immediately got busy. Rural girls are generally more capable and have grown up through hardships. If they don't know this or that, they probably won't grow up...
The two of them worked smoothly, mixing dough, washing vegetables, cutting vegetables, chopping meat, and preparing ingredients without any delay.
Chu Xi also discovered that with the recovery of his mental strength and the changes in space, his strength seemed to have increased a lot, and the kitchen knife that was originally a little heavy became a piece of cake.
Moreover, the coordination of my limbs has also improved a lot, and chopping two large pieces of meat was extremely easy.
However, Shi Xiaomei was terrified when she saw Chu Xi's extravagant spending, pouring in two large pieces of pork weighing more than ten pounds, dozens of pounds of refined flour, sugar and other expensive ingredients as if they were free.
Is he still going to make it? Is it because he's newly gained power and money? Is he feeling confident as a man? Or is he just being arrogant and generous? I want to persuade him but I can't. I'm so anxious!
While the dough was fermenting, the two of them took a small group to the village Aunt Wang's house to borrow a large steamer. Along the way, many young ladies and pretty wives who envied Chu Xi's skin appeared. Several of them took the opportunity to ask why, and those who had good sense helped carry the large steamer back.
"Auntie, how do you maintain such delicate and white skin? Do we also use that vanishing cream?"
"This looks really beautiful, especially those hands, they are so tender, I really want to touch them..."
Chu Xi could only explain that the vanishing cream brought from other places might be different and more effective, and then she got away with it.
Chu Xi had not expected that the accident would trigger a buying craze for vanishing cream.
