Chapter 21 Rose Jam



Chapter 21 Rose Jam

Yuan Xiao worked hard at home for a long time and only managed to make five bottles of rose jam.

After a little thought, she decided to set the price of rose jam at 5 yuan per bottle.

In fact, if you do the math, this price is not expensive.

After all, a bottle of rose jam can be eaten for a long time!

On this day, Yuan Xiao was carrying rose cakes, rose jam, and some rose tea to the black market.

On the way, she met Cheng Feng again, and she took the initiative to stop Yuan Xiao.

"What a fragrant rose smell, Yuan Xiao, where did you get the roses?" Cheng Feng stood on tiptoe, almost stuffing her head into Yuan Xiao's basket.

Yuan Xiao shook the basket behind him and hit Cheng Feng on the head. She pretended to be worried: "Oh, I'm sorry, Cheng Feng, are you okay?"

Cheng Feng covered her head and forced a smile, "I'm fine, Yuan Xiao, where did you get these roses?"

Yuan Xiao looked confused, "What roses?"

Cheng Feng pointed to the things in her basket, and Yuan Xiao suddenly realized, "So this is called a rose!"

"You don't know, why did you pick it?"

Yuan Xiao still looked confused, "I just thought it looked good, Uncle Tan said it was edible, so I picked some. I still have to go to the county town, let's not talk about it for now!"

Before Cheng Feng could speak, Yuan Xiao ran away without a trace.

"Host, you only have five days left to complete your mission, I suggest you hurry up and complete the mission!" 003 reminded.

Cheng Feng clenched his fists, thought for a while, and decided to follow.

If the mission is not completed, there will be a backlash.

The consequence of the backlash is the deduction of beauty, figure or intelligence. She doesn't care much about intelligence, as long as she is not a fool.

But beauty is what she values ​​most, and this cannot be lost!

"Ding! Please pay attention, host, Cheng Feng is following the host." The single dog reminded.

Yuan Xiao sneered, "Let her follow, the black market is not a secret, if she is capable, she can also come here to sell things!" Yuan

Xiao went to Mrs. He's house as usual to deliver rose cakes. The old lady was very generous and said that she looked much better after eating the rose cakes, so she bought two packs of rose tea and rose jam.

Just for these, the old lady spent a full ten yuan. Yuan Xiao couldn't help but sigh at how the gap between people was so big.

Yuan Xiao then went to set up a stall in the black market. Many old customers came to see what new things she had when they saw her coming.

Her things were good, and even though they were a little expensive, there were still many repeat customers, so the things sold quickly.

Before the things were sold out, Yuan Xiao heard the single dog barking, "Host, Cheng Feng is heading somewhere now."

Yuan Xiao was counting money and had no time to pay attention to it, "No matter where she goes, just don't do anything to me."

The single dog kept silent, anyway, it didn't detect that she was doing anything bad to the host.

Yuan Xiao also planned to go to the department store, and although the things were not sold out, she started to pack up and prepare to leave.

But she was still packing her things when she heard a single dog barking, "Warning! Warning! Many people are coming here with weapons, and they are already within a range of fifty meters."

Yuan Xiao was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, he put all the things into the basket and ran away with it on his back.

She was in a black market, and Yuan Xiao was more vigilant than in ordinary places. Those

who can come here with weapons must be speculators! If they are caught, they can't get out by spending money!

She had just run a few steps when she heard the chaos behind her.

"Don't run! If we catch you, the crime will be even more serious!"

Yuan Xiao didn't know the road, and his feet were flying, and he went wherever there was a road.

Not running? It would be strange if she didn't run!

She didn't look at the road, and she got lost in an instant, and went back and forth in the alley.

Just when she was struggling to decide whether to go left or right, the door opened, and a long arm stretched out. With a huge pulling force, she was pulled into a door.

Yuan Xiao's eyes went dark, and her mouth was held tightly by a strong hand.

Yuan Xiao stared with his eyes wide open. It was Gu Lanting!

"Hmph..."

Yuan Xiao's clothes were soaked with sweat, and her heart was pounding. When she heard the sound outside the door, her heart was about to jump out of her throat.

When the noisy sound outside gradually faded away, she drooped her head and breathed a sigh of relief.

After she felt relieved, she realized that the posture of herself and Gu Lanting was not right.

His big hand covered her mouth, almost covering her entire face, and it rubbed her face so hard that it hurt.

The two bodies were so close that they were almost touching. Yuan Xiao could still see the bulging tendons under his shirt. Especially because of his high body temperature, Yuan Xiao was almost cooked.

After the people left, Yuan Xiao heard a noise again, and a group of people came over.

Yuan Xiao looked at them through the crack in the door. They were all big men with a sense of banditry. They didn't look like ordinary people, but more like poor and vicious criminals.

Yuan Xiao's heart was lifted again. Needless to say, this group of people must be looking for Gu Lanting!

Fortunately, these people came quickly and left quickly.

Yuan Xiao pulled his hand away, "Are those people looking for you?"

Gu Lanting had a faint smell of sweat and a clean smell of soap, and a hint of... blood?

Gu Lanting's expression was cold and hard, his thick black eyebrows knitted into small hills, and he hummed heavily.

Yuan Xiao almost slapped him, "You knew you dragged me in, you wanted to kill me, didn't you!"

Gu Lanting's eyebrows were gloomy, his jawline was tense, and he didn't say a word.

An old lady came out of the house, "Who is it?"

Yuan Xiao suddenly remembered that this was still someone else's house, "Grandma, I'm here to sell things!"

The old lady was old and her eyesight was not very good. She looked for a long time but couldn't see Yuan Xiao and the others clearly, and walked back tremblingly, "No, no, let's go!"

Yuan Xiao hesitated for a moment, not only did he not leave, but he walked in slowly.

There was only the old lady in the house, but it was also true that if there were other people, they would have come out to drive them away.

"Grandma, do you live alone?"

She thought of her grandfather.

The old lady saw that she had not left yet, and her face darkened, "I told you to leave, and I said you would not buy anything, so why did you come in!"

Yuan Xiao was embarrassed, and suddenly felt that her behavior was not appropriate, so she said, "I have some rose cakes here, put them on the table for you, you can try them."

After that, she walked out with the basket on her back.

She took two steps and heard Gu Lanting say in a deep voice, "Are you selling things on the black market?"

Yuan Xiao turned around and said angrily, "It's none of your business!"

Gu Lanting's pupils shrank for a moment. Yuan Xiao had become much whiter, and now his skin was a healthy wheat color. It seemed that it was the first time for him to look at Yuan Xiao's appearance seriously, and four words emerged in his mind: bone beauty!

Yuan Xiao was no longer as dark as a coal ball, and his facial features seemed to be lit up.

Her eyes were dark and shiny, her eyes were bright and her nose was playful and clever. These seemingly plain features, when put together, were stunning.

She had gained back the fat on her face because she ate well. Her palm-sized face was puffed up and still had a hint of baby fat.

Yuan Xiao raised his eyebrows, "What are you looking at?"

Yuan Xiao hadn't looked in the mirror for a few days, and he had no idea how much he had been wronged.

Gu Lanting retracted his gaze, "The black market is chaotic, you'd better not go there as much."

Yuan Xiao snorted and saw the wound on his arm, blood staining his white shirt.

She took out a bag of rose cakes and rose jam from the box and handed it to him, "Here, this is to thank you for helping me just now!"

Gu Lanting took it without refusing.

Yuan Xiao had to hold things in both hands, but he could fit them in one palm.

Yuan Xiao turned around and left with his back to him, and they were even.

Gu Lanting rubbed the oil paper that wrapped the rose pastry, and with a tug, the string of the oil paper loosened.

A scent of roses hit his nose, sweet and fragrant.

He didn't like sweets very much, but now he actually felt an appetite.

He picked up a piece, took a bite, and couldn't stop eating, one piece after another.

Soon, he finished the whole pack.

Gu Lanting was still unsatisfied, and was in disbelief. He finished a pack like this?

He moved his arms, and the dizziness caused by blood loss was dispelled, and he actually felt energetic.
