Chapter Eighty-Seven: Hitchhiking
Bai Jinli put on a layer of makeup on her face in front of the mirror taken out of the space, painted her eyebrows, and put on lipstick in the color of bean paste.
At this moment, she is exactly the age of twenty-eight like flowers, her face is full of collagen, and her cheeks are pink.
Glancing at herself in the mirror again, Bai Jinli stuffed the mirror back into the space with satisfaction.
Out of the house, Bai Jinli thought about going to the kitchen to see how the snails she soaked the day before were doing, but as soon as she entered, she met Zhang's gaze.
"Pear, you...... You're so good-looking today. ”
Zhang's face was shocked, his eyes fell on Bai Jinli's face for a long time, and he couldn't help but praise him.
Although she had already discovered that this sister-in-law was getting better at an inconspicuous rate since she lost weight a little bit, she didn't expect her to be so good-looking today.
In the past, Bai Jinli was dark and fat, and liked to wear brightly colored clothes, but she didn't know that she was simply funny and ugly.
Since Bai Jinli kowtowed her head, she began to wear the same clothes as them.
She watched her sister-in-law's body lose weight day by day, her previous clothes became fatter, her face became smaller, and her whole person looked better than before.
But none of that was as shocking as it was today.
The brand-new clothes, the white face, the dark and bright eyes, the high nose bridge, the cherry-like mouth, and the slender figure, the more chic temperament, really stunned her.
This person, once he changes, is really surprising.
"Yes, sister-in-law, hehe, when I lose a little more weight, it will look better in the future." Bai Jinli replied in a good mood.
The mirror tells her that she does look much better than before.
But this is not enough, her current appearance is at best half of what she was before the crossing, and she still has a lot of room for improvement.
Although Mrs. Li is mean, she is not ugly when she was born, with big eyelids and big eyes, and now she is almost one meter six or seven tall.
"yes, definitely." Zhang nodded sincerely.
"Sister-in-law, are you cooking?"
"Well, you and your mother are going to leave in a while, I heard that Sanhuang Village is quite far away, and you can't eat without eating."
The Sanhuang Village in Zhang's mouth is where Bai Jinli and Mrs. Li are going today.
That place was at least twenty kilometers away from their stone village.
According to the ordinary speed, it takes about fifteen minutes to walk one kilometer, and it takes at least five hours to complete more than twenty kilometers, that is, two and a half hours.
Bai Jinli doesn't care, but Mrs. Li can't.
She is older, and she must be walking slowly, and the road is not all flat, and she needs to walk and rest.
Only Guo Kangkang has an ox cart in the village, and he is still busy, so he has no choice but to walk.
At most, if you see a ride on the road, take a ride.
Looks like we'll have to find a way to buy a carriage.
Even if you don't buy a carriage, you can buy a donkey, you can use it for travel, and you can also work at home, which is good to think about.
Well, let's start doing this when they come back from Sanhuang Village.
"Sister-in-law, I see that this snail has been soaked and can be fried, it is better to fry it now, and I can take it with me when I walk on the road."
"Okay." Zhang nodded in agreement.
"But this tail still needs to be cut, I'll call Bai Meng and them to come and help."
After Bai Jinli finished speaking, she went to call Bai Meng and Bai Jasmine to the three of them.
Bai Jinli and Bai Meng, the three of them, together with the Niu family, a total of five people, quickly cut the snails according to the method she said.
Originally, Bai Jinli wanted to fry the snails by herself, but was stopped by Zhang.
"Pear, don't turn around in front of the stove in front of the new clothes you wore today. You tell me how to fry it, and I'll do it. ”
"That's fine." Bai Jinli nodded, and did not force it.
Under her guidance, a large plate of fried snails soon came out of the pot.
The spicy and delicious snail made people suddenly have a bit of appetite.
After frying the snails, Zhang's quickly made other things.
Mrs. Li and the others also got up at this time, and after washing, they came over to eat around.
Stir-fried snails taste good, but they are more troublesome to eat.
But compared to crayfish, it's not too difficult.
And there is meat to eat, the taste is not bad, there is no sand at all, there is no reason to dislike it.
After eating, Zhang and Niu helped to fill the water for Mrs. Li and the snails, and sent them outside.
Today's Bai Jinli surprised Zhang, and the rest of the family was also stunned.
Even Bai Jasmine was no exception, she didn't even know why her sister-in-law suddenly looked so much better.
In the end, she attributed the credit for her sister-in-law's beauty to Bai Jinli's reason for wearing a new dress.
In fact, becoming beautiful is not only physical, but also eyes, walking posture and temperament, and temperament is the most important.
It's just that White Jasmine is still young, and she can't understand it.
Mrs. Li took Bai Jinli and set off, and when she was walking on the road, she would meet people from the village who went out to work in the fields from time to time.
Those people couldn't help but look at Bai Jinli a few more times, and when they were sure that the person they saw was Bai Jinli himself, they were all a little surprised.
"Girl, when will that Lin Shenyuan of your family come back? Will he run away? Mrs. Li suddenly asked.
"Mother, no. Didn't he go to business? That's going to be a waste of time. Besides, all his money is with me, where can he go? ”
Although Bai Jinli said this, she was not sure what Lin Shenyuan was going to do.
But the man said he would come back, so he would definitely come back, right? There's no reason to lie to her, isn't it?
"Well, when he comes back, I'll have to talk about him. Let such a flower-like lady run out at home by herself, is he still a man? ”
"I've told him to let him learn farming with your father, but he still doesn't listen, so he has to go to business." Mrs. Li complained.
"Mother, we don't care about him, let him be busy, man, he has to have his own things to do, anyway, he can make money." Bai Jinli spoke.
Farming? The output is so small, and he is so busy every day, how can Lin Shenyuan be willing?
Not to mention Lin Shenyuan, even she began to think about making a new living, so that those people in her family could get out of farming.
"This can't be done, men become bad when they are rich, girl, why are you so big-hearted? What if that kid provokes other women outside? Look at his face. Mrs. Li is still worried.
"Mother, don't worry, he doesn't dare."
"How do you know he doesn't dare? Girl, it's better for you to keep him by your side, and it can help you take care of you, right? ”
"Got it, mother, I'll talk to him when he comes back." Bai Jinli responded perfunctorily.
If she didn't say that, maybe her mother would have to continue to brainwash her.
The two of them walked and walked, and after walking for about half an hour, they stopped to rest.
Bai Jinli handed the water bag to Mrs. Li, and she picked up the other one and took two sips.
While resting, the sharp-eyed Bai Jinli saw an ox cart passing by from a distance, and she quickly walked forward a few steps to stop the car.
"What's the matter, girl?" When the driver saw someone stopping the car, he hurriedly stopped the ox cart and looked at Bai Jinli.
"This little brother, please ask you where are you going?"
"I'm going to Locke's Village, is there something wrong?" The driver was a thin black boy of fifteen or sixteen years old, and he asked politely.
"Walking in Luojiazhuang and Sanhuang Village is in the same direction, right? This little brother, my mother and I are going to visit relatives, and the journey is far away, can you please take us for a while? ”
"All right, come up."
The young man saw that Bai Jinli was good-looking, polite, and indeed walking with another old man, so he was kind.
"Little brother, you are so nice." After Bai Jinli finished speaking, she quickly walked over and helped Mrs. Li onto the ox cart.
"Hehe, anyway, it's on the way!" The young man was praised by Bai Jinli, and suddenly blushed a little.
"What do you call it, little brother?"
The ox cart was running on the road, but it was much more comfortable than them walking on their legs, Bai Jinli was fine, so she asked casually.
"My name is Niu San, I am sixteen years old this year, I am the third in my family, and my family is in Liushu Village over there.
I have a sister and an older brother, my sister is married, and my brother is also married to a daughter-in-law, and today I am going to visit my sister in Luojiazhuang. ”
Niu San said a lot in one breath, and then asked with a smile.
"What is this girl's name?"
"My name is Bai Jinli, and my mother is from Stone Village."
"Oh, what a nice name." Niu San spoke.
"Hmph, boy, what's the matter with my daughter's name? Don't miss my daughter, or don't blame me for being unkind. Mrs. Li snorted coldly.
"Hehe, where, I'll just ask." Niu San was coldly said by Mrs. Li, and her embarrassed face suddenly turned even redder.
"Mother, look at what you said."
"Brother Niu San, don't mind, my mother has spoiled me since I was a child, and she just cares too much about me when she says this." Seeing Niu San's appearance, Bai Jinli couldn't help but speak.
Just got in the car, in case Niu San was unhappy and drove them out of the car, wouldn't they have to walk again.
"It's okay, hehe." Next, Niu San drove quietly and didn't dare to say anything.
Bai Jinli looked at Mrs. Li with a little tiredness on her face, so she asked her to rest on her own for a while, and she took advantage of this effort to look around at the surrounding scenery.
After the ox cart drove for more than an hour, seeing that it was almost to Luojiazhuang, Niu San stopped the car and said goodbye to Bai Jinli and them.
"Little brother, this is the cake that my second sister-in-law helped us cook yesterday, and some fried snails, give you some, thank you for carrying us this way."
Bai Jinli took out a piece of pancake and handed it over to some fried snails.
"No need, it's just by the way anyway, and there is no delay." Niu San refused with a red face.
"Take it."
Unable to help but say, Bai Jinli stuffed the thing into Niu San's hand, turned around with Mrs. Li and continued to walk towards Sanhuang Village.
