Chapter Seventy-One: Falling Peanuts
"Peanuts, they turned out to be peanuts. Brother Zhao, where did you bring this back, and are there any more? Li Xiaonuan saw the contents of the bag and asked excitedly.
Zhao Lichuan was stunned, he didn't expect Li Xiaonuan's reaction to be like this. But what he was more suspicious was: "Sister Xiao Nuan recognizes this thing?" How do you recognize it? β
Li Xiaonuan came back from joy, and cold sweat broke out on her back. Oh my God, she got carried away. What to do? What should I make up to fool the past? Without waiting for Li Xiaonuan to think about it, Xiaoyang came in from outside and said a little unhappily:
"Sister, that Wei Gongzi is here."
Wei Gongzi? Wei Yu? What is he doing here? Li Xiaonuan didn't want to see him now, so he said: "Tell him that there are guests at home, let him find another time." β
Xiao Yang hesitated on his face and said, "Doctor Jing is also here, don't you let people come in and sit?" β
The two of them appeared together, which must have something to do with nautical charts. However, now is really not the time to receive them. After weighing, Li Xiaonuan said: "You let them go back first, and say that I will go to the hospital in the afternoon to find Dr. Jing." The tone is better, and I apologize to Dr. Jing for me. β
When everyone didn't know, Wei Lu listened to Li Xiaonuan's words and breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid of meeting King Jing. Although he wears a face towel now, his eyebrows and eyes have not changed. Who can avoid it, so that King Jing can't recognize her.
Fortunately, Li Xiaonuan didn't let people in, otherwise, she would have to find an excuse to avoid it. The Li family is so big, if you avoid it, there is still a chance to meet. With King Jing's alert Cheng DΓΉ, he believes that after taking a photo, he and Wu'er will soon be found. At that time, their mother and son will have to experience the nightmare of more than ten years ago.
After Xiaoyang went out, Li Xiaonuan grabbed the peanuts and looked at them again. Seeing this, Zhao Wangchuan remembered that Li Xiaonuan hadn't answered the question just now, so he wanted to ask again. But was interrupted by Li Xiaonuan.
"Brother Zhao, your peanuts are all cooked, aren't they raw?" The tone was clearly disappointed.
Hearing this, Zhao Lichuan hurriedly explained: "The cooked ones are soaked in seawater, and they are salty and fragrant when cooked, which is suitable for snacks or wine." There is also a small bag of raw ones underneath, and it tastes good when peeled off and fried. β
When Li Xiaonuan heard this, she was overjoyed. I fished it out of the bag, but instead of taking out the strap, I scattered a lot of peanuts. Seeing her distressed, Su Shi shook his head and brought a basket and poured out the peanuts in one go.
Seeing this, Li Xiaonuan patted her head in annoyance, and asked Su Shi flatteringly: "Mother, why are you so smart, why didn't I think of it." β
After saying that, I wanted to lift the small bag of peanuts. At this time, Xiaoyang came in and said worriedly: "Sister, Doctor Jing, they are waiting for you at the entrance of the village, saying that they have something very important to tell you." β
Li Xiaonuan nodded, he knew it. She untied the bag, took out a peanut and peeled it, ate one, and made sure that it was really raw, so she took the bag into her arms as if she had found a treasure.
Zhao Lichuan began to pay attention to her words and deeds when Li Xiaonuan shouted out the name of Peanut. When she peeled off the peanut shell familiarly, she was sure that Li Xiaonuan really recognized the peanut.
"Sister Xiao Nuan, it turns out that you have really seen this kind of bean. Is this bean called a peanut? Why? β
Li Xiaonuan, who was in joy, was defenseless and blurted out: "This is a peanut, also called a falling peanut, or a ground peanut." Of course, there are also those called ground beans. The reason why it is called a peanut is because the plant has to bloom and burrow into the ground to grow peanuts. β
Zhao Lichuan asked in shock: "How did Sister Xiao Nuan know?" β
Su Shi gave Li Xiaonuan anxious look on the side. It's a pity that Li Xiaonuan only cared about looking at the peanuts in his arms, and didn't see them, so he returned unguardedly: "I've seen them in my dreams, and the people in my dreams have planted these peanuts in large areas, and they have many uses." β
Zhao Lichuan felt incredible, what kind of experience was it to be able to see things he had never seen in his dreams? But then he thought of Master's words: There are many mysterious things in this time, which are incomprehensible to ordinary people. However, behind every mysterious thing, there is a cause and effect. All we can do is be kind to them and make good connections.
Thinking of this, Zhao Wangchuan did not seek the root cause. He casually chatted with the Su family and them, and then called Wei Lu to leave. Wei Lu was disturbed by King Jing, and he didn't listen to the conversation between the two.
Following Zhao Lichuan back to Zhao's house, Wei Lu hid in the room to think of countermeasures. Zhao Lichuan looked too similar to that person, and he couldn't let them meet, so as not to cause trouble.
The first thing Zhao Lichuan did when he returned to Zhao's house was to instruct Zhao Fan: "You can find a way to inform Master to come and ask him to take those raw peanuts." Oh no, it's the husk beans that are brought. Let's just say that there is a capable person here who knows that thing. β
Wei Mansion, King Jing, I am really curious about why they are in a hurry to find Li Xiaonuan. However, because of what he had seen and heard in the Li family before, Zhao Wangchuan felt that he seemed to know some kind of connection. If Li Xiaonuan really has that ability, then it is reasonable for the two of them to do this.
Seeing off Zhao Wangchuan's mother and son, Su couldn't help but stretch out his index finger and point at Li Xiaonuan's forehead and said, "You, you, why didn't you tell the dream through your brain just now?" If others don't believe you, you say that you will not be regarded as a demon by others. When the time comes, what will we do, ah? β
Being reminded by Su Shi like this, Li Xiaonuan suddenly came back to her senses from joy, looked at Su Shi in annoyance, pouted and asked, "Mother, what should I do now?" β
Su Shi couldn't help but nod Li Xiaonuan's forehead again, and was angry: "I don't know, you can find a way to go by yourself." I really owe you a debt of it, and I don't have a time to stop all day, which makes people worry about it. β
Seeing this, Father Li comforted the two: "I think the mother and son of the Zhao family are not such troubled people, don't worry about it first." Later, I'll let Xiaoyang go to Zhao's house to explore the wind. β
Li Xiaonuan was about to be coquettish with Daddy Li, and Xiaoyang came in again.
"Sister, Xiao Si in front of Gongzi Wei is here to urge you."
Hearing this, Li Xiaonuan was deflated. She stuffed the small cloth bag into Su Shi's arms and said, "Mother, you hide this bag of peanuts in a place where rats can't bite." When I come back, I will tell you what is the use of this time. β
After speaking, Li Xiaonuan said hello to Li's father, and called Xiaoyang to the entrance of the village. Now, she doesn't have to use crutches, but she doesn't walk fast. She can't bend her knees as she wants, and if she goes too far, she may have to fall and eat. Therefore, by the time we reached the entrance of the village, it was already more than two quarters of an hour later.
At the entrance of the village, two horse-drawn carriages were parked far away on the side of the road. Under the big banyan tree, Zhou Rong's mother-in-law and Jin Matchmaker's wife were pointing at the carriage with several women. Seeing Li Xiaonuan walking over, he consciously silenced.
