Chapter 16: Secretly Opening a Hotel (6)
"Brother?" "Hey!" The sound of Baili Qianxiang came from the bamboo bushes on the edge of the courtyard, originally he ate tender bamboo shoots and fried meat at noon, and took a sickle to dig bamboo shoots. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Baili Zimo turned around and saw that several bamboo shoots had been thrown next to him.
Baili Qianxiang saw his sister looking at him with strange eyes, and moved his body uncomfortably, "I don't think there are too many bamboo shoots at home." "It's not too much, originally he didn't dig it, Baili Zimo himself was going to dig it.
"Brother, don't you like to eat bamboo shoots?" Seeing his stunned appearance, Baili Zimo couldn't help but shake his head and helped dig up bamboo shoots together.
The brother and sister were not idle, taking advantage of these days at home, they had to dig bamboo shoots for a while every day, and by the way, they cut some bamboo, made some stools and rocking chairs, and made a few small bamboo baskets and bamboo balls to play with Baili Qianxiang clapped their hands.
In the past few days, Baili Qianxiang has finished embroidering the flowers, and the peeled bamboo shoot shells are piled on the side, Zi Mo has now successfully grasped the power of cooking in his hands, and grabbed a handful to light the fire when he made a fire to cook.
And because there was no one in the mountain, and there was not even a decent road, the two siblings had to work hard themselves, cut down some of the branches and vines around them, and clear out a decent path.
Life is hectic and busy, and time passes quickly. Seeing that the day of the market was approaching again, the brother and sister were very happy.
Baili Qianxiang just thinks that the strawberry can be sold for money, and his sister is not afraid of anything if she has a card in her hand, so she is very happy.
Baili Zimo felt that it would be a little tiring to use that ability now, or he was careful not to let his brother find out, but he was very happy other than these, because he could use the ability openly.
Both of them were very happy, for no reason, Baili Zimo felt a little dignified in his heart, and he just felt that he didn't want to be discovered.
Taking advantage of Baili Qianxiang's efforts to dig bamboo shoots, she said hello and said to go out.
Maybe it's because she's been very well-behaved during this time, or maybe it's for other reasons, in short, Baili Qianxiang didn't embarrass her, and quickly let her out.
Although he knew that there was no one around, Baili Zimo always felt weak when he came to the outside of the strawberry bush, although the surface was well hidden, but the sense of solemnity in his heart became heavier and heavier.
I pulled away the branches and weeds that blocked the strawberry bushes and got in.
There were several buds on the green foliage, but few were in full bloom. And although these small white flowers are much more energetic than when Baili Zimo first saw them before, they are still not as good as after using the ability.
Baili Zimo knelt on the ground, stretched out his hands, and a ball of light appeared on his hands in an instant, and the strawberry vines instantly blossomed and bore fruit, and the red strawberries could not compare to Zi Mo's smile.
She slowly stepped out of the grass, she looked around cautiously, and then helped the surrounding branches and weeds to cover the secrets as usual, and then tidied up her dress, and patted some grass clippings on her head, and waited until she carefully observed her body, and felt that there was nothing wrong before she took a calm step and walked home.
Baili Qianxiang was sitting in the yard, like an industrious bee, next to a large pile of peeled bamboo shoot shells, and in the other basket put some white and green bamboo shoots, and he didn't even hear the footsteps of her coming back, and he didn't find it until people came to him.
"I'm back. Baili Zimo smiled and nodded, afraid that he would find out what was wrong, so he had to chat with him for a while, and then took the opportunity to say that he was tired and wanted to rest for a while.
Of course, Baili Qianxiang had no objections, seeing that her face was a little pale, but her spirit was still acceptable, but she thought that she was cold in the forest after walking outside, and she couldn't help but regret that she didn't ask her to wear more clothes when she went out.
Baili Zimo felt that he was too tired, but he still had to pretend to be casual in front of him. After saying hello to him, he didn't dare to run in stride, so he had to take small steps and walk into the house.
I finally walked to the side of the bed, as if my strength had been used up, and as soon as I touched the edge of the bed, I suddenly went limp, so I had to take off my shoes with great difficulty, pull the jacket and cover it, and after a while, I let out a thin cry.
Baili Zimo slept very deeply this night, and when he opened his eyes, he was still a little groggy when he saw the sky. She sat up, and the room was silent, and no sound was heard outside the courtyard.
She wondered if Qianxiang was digging bamboo shoots, recently he had a great enthusiasm for this matter, digging bamboo shoots every day, never stopping, slid out of bed and put on shoes, she yawned while "brother." ”
If it was usual, there would have been no second sound, Baili Qianxiang would have run in a long time ago, but she called several times in a row and no one answered. Where did he go?
There was a thick fog outside the house, she stood at the door of the hall and shivered from the cold, and quickly took a breath of hot air in the palm of her hand, and she couldn't even see the door of her own courtyard from a distance, no wonder she saw that the sky was dark when she first got up, and thought it was evening.
But this scene could never have happened in the evening. I didn't expect her to sleep so well, directly from yesterday afternoon to now.
Baili Qianxiang was not at home, Baili Zimo looked for it and didn't see anyone, and even the little yellow dog at home didn't know where to go. She guessed that Qianxiang should have pulled Xiao Huang out to let the wind out, so she didn't care.
She didn't eat dinner yesterday, her stomach growled and she hurried into the kitchen.
took the apron hanging by the side and folded it in half and tied it to her waist, and as soon as her warm little hand touched the cold water, she shivered from the cold, and felt the hairs on the back of her neck stand up. Brush the tin pot with a loofah pulp, beat some rice out of the jar, pour it in, and prepare to cook porridge. Then he took his wet hands to the apron and wiped them, sat down in front of the stove and put the firewood in his hand, touched the fire fold on the stove with one hand, lit it and stuffed it into the stove.
Just as she was about to pull the tongs, a little black thing came out of it, and vaguely saw that the hair on her back was still stained with some sparks, and a weighty paw stepped on her leg and got out of the kitchen door.
It happened so suddenly, she only saw a mass of gray-black hair, if a mouse had this size, it should also be a rat spirit, right?
Thinking of this, goosebumps broke out all over her body, and she seemed to feel that even the thighs that had been crawled by it began to shiver.
It took a long time to come back to his senses, but his heart was still pounding, and he was still looking at the door while the fire was burning.
After a long time, I didn't see anything running out again, Baili Zimo carefully poked her head out of the door to look left and right, the fog outside the house was foggy, where to see clearly, but at least she was much more relieved without her at the door.
I washed the pot again and put it on the stove on the other side, and this time I was much more careful when lighting the fire. First took a piece of firewood and lit it and put it in to see that there were no animals in it, and then she put the saved firewood in with confidence.
After boiling the water, she poured some out and took a handkerchief and washed her face. He added a handful of firewood to the stove, and when he saw that the fire would not be extinguished, he took the green salt and willow branches outside and went outside to fetch a bowl of water and brush his teeth.
She wiped her mouth with a handkerchief as she prepared to enter the house. When people feel danger, the cold hair will instinctively stand up, she feels that something is wrong, she turns her head, and under the fog, not far from where she has just brushed her teeth, a black animal meets her eyes.
If she didn't look carefully in the thick fog, in fact, some of her abilities had not yet recovered, so she couldn't see the animal's appearance clearly, only that it wasn't a youkai.
Baili Zimo saw that the little thing wanted to walk towards her, and kept walking towards her, she felt that it was very familiar, but she couldn't tell what kind of animal it was.
When the little animal approached, Baili Zimo observed for a long time and didn't see what kind of animal it was, and after a while, he seemed to faintly hear the sound of footsteps, which was the sound of footsteps, from far to near, accompanied by a unique sound of pushing open the door of his house.
"Brother, what are you doing" Baili Zimo couldn't help but pout, Baili Qianxiang heard the voice, put the things in his hand aside, and ran towards the source of the sound.
Baili Zimo saw his familiar thin body and wanted to pounce, but there was a figure that moved faster than her.
Baili Zimo watched it pounce on his brother, "Brother, get out of the way" Hearing her words, he was stunned, and reached out to catch Xiao Huang who pounced at his feet, "Why?"
Seeing Baili Qianxiang carrying the animal that couldn't stop struggling on four legs and came over, she took a step back.
"Xiao Huang is very well-behaved, why don't you like it. "Xiao Huang, this name is so familiar, where have you heard it?
There seems to be a flash of thunder and lightning in my mind, a few days ago, I rushed to the market, I saw a cute puppy she liked no, I had to buy it, because the whole body was yellow fluff, she saw that it was yellow all over the body, so it was officially given the name - Xiao Huang.
Baili Zimo's big eyes widened suddenly, staring at Qian Xiang's hand and struggling, wanting to stick out his tongue and lick his things.
Those black bean-like eyes stared at him innocently, and his little ears trembled, it wasn't Xiao Huang!
The original light yellow fur on its body was stained with firewood ash because it slept in the stove, so it looked gray-black, and in such a fog where it was impossible to see the figure of a person from a distance, it looked like a black camel from a little distance.
"Why does it sleep in the stove? The voice was so flat that it was impossible to tell what mood she was in.
Baili Qianxiang is not a stupid person, from what he saw when he came back before, and when he thinks about the conversation with her current appearance, it is not difficult to guess the development of things.
"Maybe it's afraid of the cold, so it's all going to sleep. "I drilled it yesterday, and he found it when he was cooking dinner, but he didn't have time to tell her. It's just that where does he dare to say this now, he squeezed Xiao Huang's hand tightly, and it was regarded as a secret between him and Xiao Huang.
Baili Zimo walked to the kitchen after listening to his explanation, brought out the food, and the two of them sat on the chairs to eat quietly, of course, they didn't forget Xiao Huang.
