Chapter 222 Going Out Shopping
Looking at Wanniang's back as she left, Lin Baoer narrowed her eyes.
At first, she thought it was not easy for Wanniang to be so gentle in such a robber's den, and she had a good impression of her. However, as they got to know each other better, she found that this person was like a dagger hidden in a cotton ball. On the surface, she was gentle and soft, but secretly she was planning to let Ergou get close to her and insult her innocence, so that Brother Ao would find out and expel her from the Weilong Gang.
As for whether he wanted to drive her out, Lin Baoer was not sure at the moment. The only thing that was certain was that Wanniang was not as gentle and soft as she appeared.
The news that Lin Baoer came out of Brother Ao's room this morning quickly spread throughout the Weilong Gang, so when she came to the kitchen, she was directly ridiculed by Aunt Xu.
"You dare to climb into any bed, and you are not afraid of eternal damnation."
There was no one around, and Aunt Xu's words were obviously meant for her. Lin Baoer frowned.
She still couldn't see through Aunt Xu, and didn't know whether she really disliked her or had other hidden motives.
In the end, Lin Baoer chose to pretend not to hear, and asked with a shameless face: "Aunt Xu, what are we eating today? What do you need me to do?"
The daily meals were decided by the three of them. Generally, you can know what to eat for lunch or dinner today by looking at the prepared dishes, but Lin Baoer has never been in the kitchen. When she was in the capital, she always went to Shenghuai Restaurant or Shuiqinglou for meals, or the servants at home prepared and served them, and it was never her turn to go to the kitchen, so she didn't understand these things at all.
Aunt Xu, who was picking vegetables, glanced at her and said expressionlessly, "It's your turn to go down the mountain with me to buy some food today."
Buying?
Lin Baoer suddenly realized.
Every once in a while, they would go down the mountain to buy some vegetables and put them away, so as not to have nothing to eat later. Seeing that it was her and Aunt Xu's turn today.
But after hearing this, Lin Baoer wrinkled her nose and sighed in her heart.
Aunt Xu was so difficult to approach, and she didn't know how many times she would be ridiculed for this shopping trip.
At about the time of Si, Lin Baoer followed Aunt Xu down the mountain. There was a market ten miles from the foot of the mountain. It was created by people from villages all over the place. The scale was not large, but the variety was quite rich.
As soon as she arrived at the market, Aunt Xu went straight to the pork, bought a large piece of pork, and asked the butcher to hand it directly to Lin Baoer.
Looking at this piece of pork that was almost half the size of her, Lin Baoer's mouth twitched and her calves softened.
Especially the unique fishy smell of meat filled her nose, which made Lin Baoer's expression change again and again, and she couldn't do it at all.
"Aunt Xu, is there no one from the Weilong Gang to help? Is it just the two of us?" She asked in a low voice.
Aunt Xu responded to her vaguely, and turned around to look at the vegetables herself, "Yes, there are only two of us, carry it quickly, we have to go back after buying it."
Lin Baoer: "..."
She wanted to carry it, but how could she do it? !
A weak woman carrying half a pig in her hands? ? ! !
Lin Baoer felt as if there was a choking gas in her chest, unable to go up or down.
After struggling for a while, she let out a breath and shrugged.
Forget it, just lift it. At least the butcher was considerate enough to take a big bag to put the pork in.
Lin Baoer quietly exchanged a rope from the system mall, and then tied it to the bag, and just dragged it along, not afraid of the bag being damaged.
Aunt Xu might have noticed it halfway through the walk, and her face was shocked and angry, "Why are you dragging it like this?! It will be damaged!"
Lin Baoer spread her hands innocently, "But if I don't drag it like this, I can't move it."
She shook her hands, and the two shocking red stripes on them were very conspicuous.
It was obvious that she had wasted a lot of energy just dragging it along like this.
Aunt Xu looked at her in silence for a long while, then she threw the basket of vegetables in her hand to her, and then she carried the slab of pork and walked in front.
Looking at Aunt Xu's crisp and neat movements, Lin Baoer was shocked.
[Is she so strong? ! She carried it along without blushing or panting? ! ]
[So she did it on purpose just now? ]
Lin Baoer also started to appreciate it and raised her eyebrows.
Although there was no pork, Lin Baoer was still not at ease.
Because Aunt Xu bought a lot of vegetables, all added up, it was enough for a family to eat for a year.
Carrying a basket of vegetables and dragging a bag half a person's height, Lin Baoer was exhausted and panting.
What the hell? ! The people from the Weilong Gang sent two weak women down to buy food? ! What about those men! Damn, they are not human beings!
Lin Baoer kept cursing in her heart, wishing she could drag all those people out and beat them up. She
also regretted that she was not gentle last night, and should have tortured that Ao Ge more.
When she reached the foot of the mountain, Lin Baoer suddenly stepped on a stone accidentally, staggered, and sprained her ankle.
"Hiss."
She fell to the ground, patted the dust on her hands, frowned and rubbed her red and swollen ankle.
It's really unlucky that she will fall down when she walks.
Aunt Xu looked at her speechlessly, wanting to say something but stopping.
Lin Baoer was ready to be scolded, but Aunt Xu just sighed, put down the things in her hands, and threw a bottle to her, "This is for stopping bleeding and removing blood stasis. It should be useful. You try it."
As she said that, she put the piece of pork on the side of the road, and then moved the vegetables next to Lin Baoer over and put them together, and then crawled into the grass.
After a while, Aunt Xu dragged out a simple rolling wooden board from the grass.
This thing is usually used to move things, and it is easy.
She moved the meat and vegetables to the board by herself, then turned her head and said to Lin Baoer with a bad face: "Can you still walk?"
Lin Baoer blinked and nodded, "Yes."
As she said that, she stood up and hopped on one foot, so she could walk.
Seeing this, Aunt Xu stopped paying attention to her and pulled the rope of the wooden board forward.
The mountain road was not flat, but very rugged. Even with the help of the wooden board, it was enough to make people panting and exhausted, especially at noon when the sun was at its highest. The air was scorching hot, which made it even more uncomfortable for climbers.
There were already a lot of red spots on Aunt Xu's forehead, and her cheeks were red. Her not-so-good skin became more and more obvious under the sun.
But even so, she didn't let Lin Baoer come over to help, and she didn't say any harsh words.
Lin Baoer looked at her all the way, and finally her conscience couldn't bear it, so she took the initiative to say: "Aunt Xu, it's not easy to walk here, let me help you."
"No need!" Aunt Xu scolded, "You're helping me if you stay here."
After being rejected like this, the air became silent again.
It took an hour to climb the mountain. After arriving at Weilongbang, it was almost noon. After Aunt Xu moved the things, she didn't even take a break, and went straight into the kitchen.
