Chapter 538 If I touch him too much, will my tail go bald? (7)
According to the shift schedule, it was my uncle’s family who were responsible for “looking after” Master Wen today.
Wen Jiujiu finally didn’t have to be dragged by her parents to join in the fun at Master Wen’s place. Zhou Xu knew that she was in a bad mood, so in order to cheer her up, he went to the foot of the mountain and bought her a lot of food.
Wen Jiujiu complained to him, "I really don't know why everyone likes money so much. My uncle and second uncle are like this, and my parents are like this too. They are vying to go to my uncle every day to show their courtesy. They have a mean face and are very philistine. It's really annoying to see them."
Wen Jiujiu is different from those who put down their self-esteem for money. She has her own principles and the character of not following the crowd. It is because of this that she is particularly dazzling in the eyes of many people.
"Jiujiu, everyone has different ideas and pursuits. We just need to do our best." Zhou Xu said in a gentle tone. He always has infinite patience for Wen Jiujiu.
Wen Jiujiu and Zhou Xu sat under the eaves and looked at the scenery outside. She leaned on his shoulder, sighed, and said, "I just think those people make themselves smell like copper, which is pathetic and pitiful. By the way, you still remember my cousin Yao, right?"
Zhou Xu nodded, "What's wrong?"
"Before, my aunt and uncle said that no matter how much property my uncle has, they will not be tempted. After all, my aunt is a married woman. Logically, she should not take our Wen family's property. I really thought that my aunt and others were different from others, but I found that Bai Yao has been showing courtesy to my uncle recently and trying to make him familiar."
Zhou Xu frowned, "Really? Except for meal time, I seem to rarely see her leave the yard."
"That's because she's good at pretending." Wen Jiujiu muttered, "Why would I lie to you?"
As she spoke, she sighed as if she was the only one sober when everyone else was drunk, "People always chase after fame and fortune."
Zhou Xu picked up the cut fruit, "Okay, Jiujiu, don't think about unhappy things. This time I bought your favorite mango when we went down the mountain."
"Zhou Xu, you're so nice!" Wen Jiujiu ate a piece of mango first, then poked another piece of mango with a toothpick and put it in his mouth, "You eat it too!" Zhou
Xu opened his mouth and ate the fruit his girlfriend handed over, feeling sweet in his heart.
In the dark, no one noticed.
Wen Ming looked at the sweet couple under the eaves, and he didn't care about the game that was still going on in his phone. His eyebrows once again showed hostility, and jealousy was deeply imprinted in his eyes.
"Wen Ming." Wen Xiaorou happened to pass by here and asked curiously: "What are you doing standing here?"
Wen Ming glanced at Wen Xiaorou, "Nothing."
He turned and left, his fists clenched tightly.
Wen Xiaorou couldn't help but stand where Wen Ming stood before and look over. Wen Jiujiu and Zhou Xu still had a good relationship as always, but Wen Jiujiu's family still seemed very dissatisfied with them being together.
When Wen Jiujiu went into the room for a nap, Zhou Xu also left the yard where she lived. Halfway through the walk, he began to feel unwell and couldn't help scratching his arms. Many small red spots had already appeared on his skin.
Of course, small red bumps began to appear on half of his face.
Zhou Xu thought that he had to go down the mountain to buy medicine while Wen Jiujiu was sleeping. Someone called him, "Cousin Zhou."
Zhou Xu turned around and saw, "Xiaorou."
Zhou Xu and Wen Tingzhi were cousins, so since childhood, several brothers and sisters of the Wen family followed Wen Tingzhi and called Zhou Xu as cousin.
"This is for you." Wen Xiaorou put a bottle of medicine in Zhou Xu's hand.
Zhou Xu had taken this medicine several times and recognized it as a medicine for allergies. He was slightly surprised, "This..."
"I saw it. You just ate mango." Wen Xiaorou smiled and said, "I remember you had an allergy after eating mango when you were a child. I happen to be allergic to Sophora japonica flowers. There are many Sophora japonica trees on Baihuai Mountain, so I prepared medicine in advance."
She was talking about the time when they played house together when they were young. Zhou Xu was the oldest and had a gentle personality. Wen Jiujiu was the first to say that she wanted to be the bride. Zhou Xu wanted to be the groom, but Wen Jiujiu disagreed and insisted on dragging Wen Tingzhi to be the groom.
Although Zhou Xu was disappointed, he thought that he was the oldest and should give way to his younger brothers and sisters, so he did not argue.
Later, Wen Jiujiu became the bride and Wen Tingzhi became the groom. The youngest Wen Ming insisted on playing the role of a bride robber,
so Zhou Xu became the flower protector who protected the bride and groom from ruining their wedding. As for Wen Xiaorou, Bai Yao dragged her to sit aside and watch the show.
It was also in that game that Zhou Xu had an allergic reaction after eating a mango.
If it is said that Zhou Xu was ignorant when he was a child and ate something that made him allergic, he is now an adult and it is impossible for him not to know that he is allergic to mangoes. It is just because it was sent by Wen Jiujiu, so he would eat it even if it was poison.
Zhou Xu didn't think about the fact that Wen Xiaorou still remembered the things about him when they were young. He held the medicine bottle and said thank you earnestly, "Thank you."
"You're welcome." Wen Xiaorou probably wanted to advise him not to joke about his body, but thinking that Zhou Xu liked Wen Jiujiu so much, she estimated that it would be useless for her to say anything, so she stopped talking and said, "I'm going to find my cousin Yaoyao, I'll leave first." Zhou
Xu nodded, "Okay, goodbye."
Wen Xiaorou said "goodbye" and left briskly.
The afternoon breeze was gentle, and the shadows of the trees were swaying, which was particularly pleasant.
When Wen Xiaorou came to the door, Bai Yao was changing the water in the vase in the room. She put a bunch of unknown yellow wild flowers into the vase, arranged them again, and finally placed them on the table.
Wen Xiaorou asked curiously: "I came here before my cousin, but I didn't find such beautiful flowers here. How did my cousin find them?"
"I saw them on the way here." Bai Yao quickly changed the subject, "You told me that you wanted to be a doctor, is that true?"
"It's true, but..." Wen Xiaorou lowered her head and her voice became much softer, "My parents will definitely not agree."
Wen Xiaorou's parents had a very simple plan. After Wen Xiaorou finished college, they would let her maximize her value and marry a rich man who was beneficial to them. After all, Wen Xiaorou was beautiful, and she was not a son, so she could not give her parents more say in the Wen family, so they could only take the path of marriage.
But Wen Xiaorou didn't want to get married right after graduation. She wanted to be a doctor, wanted a stable job, and then support herself.
