Chapter Twenty-Seven: Zhuo Ran (II)
"Mother, your hands are blistered, why don't I go to the doctor to take a look at you?" I heard Zhuo Ran say to his mother.
I rubbed over to see that there were several large and small blisters on both hands.
"It's okay, it'll be fine in a few days, besides, how can we afford to see a doctor." Zhuo's mother comforted her son, then looked at me again, smiled apologetically, and said, "White girl, let you see you smile."
I waved my hand and said, "What did my aunt say?" But if you can trust me, I can heal your hands. ”
Zhuo Ran's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he looked at me expectantly and said, "Really, that white girl is bothering you, Qian ...... I'll pay you a pretty penny. When he talked about money, his eyes dimmed again.
I chuckled and said, "You don't have to pay me, come, let the lady sit down first." ”
"I'm going to pick some herbs first, you guys wait!" After that, without waiting for them to answer, I went out.
Actually, I don't know what herbs are not herbs, I just want to use spells to cure Zhuo Ran's mother, but if I use it directly, I'm afraid of scaring them, and then say I'm a goblin. Of course, you might think I'm a fairy! For the sake of insurance, it is better to use "herbs" as a cover.
When I got to the door, I looked around and was a little depressed, I didn't know any herbs. Seeing that there was no one around, I went around to the corner of the house and pulled out a few unknown weeds from the ground, cast a spell on them to change the shape of the weeds, and applied a healing spell on them.
Back in the house, I handed the weeds I had cast to Zhuo Ran, asked him to add some water to grind them into a paste, and then put them on his mother's burned hands.
As soon as I put it on, I heard Zhuo's mother sigh: "Ah~ It's really much better, I didn't expect that the white girl still has such medical skills." ”
"It's just a little trick to carve insects. Auntie, your hand will be all right in one night. I laughed, in fact, her hand was completely healed, so in order not to make their mother and son suspicious, I had to postpone it for a night.
"Alas, it seems that today's dinner is too old to be done. Ran'er, I'll leave it to you. After Zhuo's mother finished speaking to her son, she said to me again: "It's not too early, if the white girl doesn't dislike it, let's stay at home tonight!" ”
I nodded yes without even thinking about it, and I didn't have anywhere to go anyway.
Zhuo Ran went into the kitchen to prepare to cook, which reminded me of Qianfan, since Qianfan left Cangshan, I haven't eaten this world's fireworks. Zhuo Ran looks very similar to Qianfan, I don't know if the craftsmanship is the same as him.
After Zhuo Ran entered the kitchen for a while, I finally couldn't hold it anymore and walked to the kitchen. However, I almost didn't laugh out loud when I saw everything in front of me.
Since I came in, Zhuo Ran had been in the kitchen for a while, and he was now kneeling on the ground with a black and gray face, shaking the fire fold in his right hand to light the firewood and grass in the stove, and holding a bamboo tube almost two feet long in his left hand. I saw that the firewood and grass in the stove were burning, but for some reason, the fire that had just been lit suddenly gradually extinguished. Zhuo Ran, who had just put away the fire fold, hurriedly put the bamboo tube on his left hand into the stove, and his mouth pressed the bamboo tube and blew it vigorously.
Billowing smoke and the ashes from the stove hit Zhuo Ran's face head-on.
"Ahem......" put down the bamboo tube, Zhuo Ran was choked and coughed, and the black shadow around his mouth was very obvious.
In this situation, how do you feel that you have seen a copy of yourself.
Zhuo Ran got up, and when he saw me, he said very calmly: "Why did you come in?" It's dirty in here, so you might as well go outside and sit outside. ”
I thought about it, made a decision in my mind, and said, "You go and accompany your mother, and leave it to me here." ”
"The white girl is a guest at home, so I'd better come by myself." Zhuo Ran said.
I pointed to the little bit of firewood and grass in the stove, and said with a little teasing: "Then when are we going to have dinner tonight?" ”
Zhuo Ran looked down, and finally said, "Then please trouble the white girl to help take charge of the spoon, and I'll do the rest myself." ”
With that, he crouched down and prepared to light the fire again.
I hurriedly pulled him up, pushed him out of the kitchen door, and said, "I don't like to be disturbed when I'm cooking, so don't come in." ”
"This ......" Zhuo Ran still didn't plan to leave.
"Really, I'll be able to do it alone, just take care of your mother." I repeated.
"Then it's going to be a trouble for the White Girl."
Zhuo Ran was finally willing to leave, and my plan could be implemented. I don't know how to cook and stir-fry, but it's not hard to use magic to cook these existing ingredients.
When I returned to the stove and opened the pot, I was surprised to see that although there was washed rice in the pot on the stove, there was no water in it. Is he going to make fried rice?
I shook my head and looked at the dishes in the kitchen again, and it seemed that I couldn't cook a big meal, except for the vegetables, which were wild vegetables.
With both hands pinching out the fingers, he silently recited the mantra in his heart, and for a while pots and pans flew all over the house, and after a while, the rice in the pot had become cooked rice, and the lettuce had become cooked vegetables on the plate. I smelled it, and it was quite fragrant.
"It works well!" I secretly praised in my heart, I lifted the pot containing the rice from the stove, snapped my fingers and cast a spell to turn the firewood and grass in the stove into ashes, and then picked up the spatula and jingled in the pot for a while, which gave them the illusion that I was stir-frying.
At the same time, I had to keep my ears up and watch the door, for fear that they would break in. It took me half an hour to give up, and it seems that it is not easy for goblins to disguise themselves as mortals!
Bringing the dishes to the table in the dining room one by one, I cooked the meal for three people and ate it with Zhuoran's mother and son.
After the meal, I cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and when I walked out of the kitchen, Zhuo Mu smiled and nodded to me: "The white girl is really good at doing things, and the dishes are so delicious, and the rice is also very fragrant." If anyone marries you in the future, it will be a blessing from the cultivation of three lives! ”
"Hehe, my aunt is wonderful, how can I be so good." I smiled wryly, and said in my heart, "Who dares to marry a demon as a wife!" ”
"I don't know where the white girl's family lives, and who are the people in the family?" Zhuo Mu asked.
"Don't tell my aunt that my family is my alone, and the four seas are my home." I didn't want to say it.
"I see, poor boy!" Zhuo's mother sighed, and after a while, she said: "If you don't dislike it, you can live at home in the future, it's a little inconvenient for the girl's family to be alone." ”
"Thank you, Auntie, for your kindness! It's a lot of inconvenience to be here for a long time, and I'll have to leave tomorrow. I said.
That night, I stayed at Zhuo's house, and Zhuo Ran's house only had two rooms, and Zhuo's mother and I squeezed one. Although I'm not used to it, as a normal person, I have to endure it all.
There was no word all night, and when I woke up early the next morning, Zhuo's mother had already gotten up. When she came to the hall from the side door, Zhuo's mother happened to enter the dining room with a bowl of porridge. When she turned around and came out, she saw me and said with a smile: "The white girl is awake, your medicine really works, the old man's hands are all healed, and he can't tell that he has been burned at all." Thank you so much. The old man cooked some porridge, you should go eat it first after you finish freshening up. ”
Zhuo's mother said as she went into the kitchen and brought me a small wooden basin with some hot water in it, and she asked me to go to the well outside the door to get cold water by myself.
I took it, rinsed my mouth at the well outside the door, washed my face and came back, and as soon as I arrived at the gate, I heard footsteps behind me and turned around to look, it turned out to be Xiuxiu's father and his two entourage that I had seen yesterday.
Father He, who came closer, glanced at me, and kept bypassing me and went straight into the house, and I saw that Mother Zhuo was obviously taken aback when she saw Father He.
"Ahem!" Father He coughed dryly twice, and said first: "How can I say that our two families were also world friends, I came today to invite my sister-in-law and nephew to enjoy the wedding banquet of our mansion tomorrow."
"The wedding feast?" Zhuo Mu was at a loss.
"Yes, my future son-in-law is Young Master Chang of the 'Four Seas Money Village' in Hangzhou City." Father He said and waved to the entourage behind him.
An attendant took out a red post from his bosom and handed it to Zhuo's mother, and then the three masters and servants left.
