Chapter 102: Broken Feet
The moonlight is like water.
It was a pale white light in all directions.
The shadows of the trees on the roadside, the overlapping peaks in the distance, the waves crashing against the reef, the sound of rattling, the air was filled with a salty, fishy smell, and occasionally the sea breeze blew, blowing the corners of the two people's clothes.
The path under your feet is narrow and crooked, with potholes, and it is very difficult to walk.
Even, from time to time, there will be low branches scraping the hem of the clothes.
Pei Ze didn't speak, and the pepper didn't squeak.
The two walked forward along the path one after the other, and after walking for a while, Huajiao stopped and asked, "Where are you going to take me?" ”
The beach is right in front.
She didn't want to go any further.
Pei Ze stopped, turned to look at her, and said with a smile on his eyebrows: "I thought you were still angry with me!" ”
The little girl is indeed quite temperamental.
It's been two days, and I haven't taken the initiative to talk to him.
Hua Jiao lowered his head, kicked a small stone under his feet, and frowned: "Since I came, I just don't get angry, but if I don't get angry, it doesn't mean that I forgive you." ”
Pei Ze smiled: "Okay, then I'll behave well, waiting for you to forgive me." ”
It's good that she'll be angry.
It's better than ignoring him.
"If it's okay, I'll go back." Huajiao didn't want to play tricks with him, turned around and walked back, saying what to take her to recognize the way, it was clearly to trick her out and tease her, but just a few steps away, she stepped into the dirt pit, and then there was a sharp pain in her ankle, she stumbled, and almost fell to the ground, Pei Ze stepped forward to support her with an arrow, and said with concern: "What's wrong?" ”
"You don't have to worry about me." Pepper pushed him in annoyance, squatting down in pain, and she stumbled...... As soon as she came, she really shouldn't have come!
"Did you stumble?" Pei Ze couldn't help but say that he stepped forward and picked her up, "Don't move, I'll take you back to have a look." ”
"You let me go, I can go by myself." Hua Jiao writhed and struggled in his arms, Pei Ze hugged her tightly, strode forward like walking on the ground, and said expressionlessly, "Don't make trouble, do you want everyone to know that you are losing your temper with me?" ”
His warm chest pressed against her cheek, and she could even feel the sound of his powerful heartbeat.
Thinking of the domineering aura between his lips and teeth, Hua Jiao couldn't help blushing, bit his lip and said, "You let me down, I'll take a walk." ”
She also broke her foot when she was a child.
In my impression, it's good to rub it.
It's not so serious that people can hold it.
Pei Ze didn't speak, and hurriedly walked into the courtyard.
Everyone was drinking tea and chatting, and was surprised to see Pei Ze walking in with peppercorns, Feng Shi hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”
It was fine when I just went out.
Why did you come back and hold it?
"I'm broken." Pei Zejing entered the house with peppercorns in his arms.
There are four main houses in total.
The east side is connected to each other, the middle one is the stove room, and the west one is the other.
Pei Ze carried the peppercorns into the innermost east room, put her on the kang, quickly took the fire fold and lit the lamp, Guan Mao also walked in to see, Feng stepped forward and said, "Is it serious?" Can you walk? ”
"It's fine." Hua Jiao reluctantly smiled, "It'll be fine soon." ”
"Let's all get out." Pei Ze bent down to take off her shoes, "I'll just show her." ”
Guan Mao walked out playfully.
Feng stepped forward to take the lamp, and said angrily: "Well, why did you fall into disappointment?" ”
Didn't you go out and find your way?
"I accidentally stepped into the pit." Huajiao let Pei Ze help her take off her shoes, and rubbed her ankles herself, "I said it's okay." ”
"I'll see if I take off my socks." Pei Ze stood in front of the kang and reached out to take off her socks, but Hua Jiao retracted his legs, "I said it's okay, I don't need you." ”
She didn't mind if he looked at her feet.
Rather, she didn't want to use him.
"You little girl, you know to fight with me." Pei Ze quickly grabbed her ankle and took off her socks in an instant, "Look, are you okay?" The feet are swollen. ”
Her ankles were swollen like a pig's trotters.
As soon as she moved, she bared her teeth and cried out in pain.
"Gee, that's pretty serious." Feng exclaimed, "Otherwise, I'll ask your cousin to go and find a doctor!" ”
"No, you don't." Pei Ze supported her feet with one hand, covered it with the other, gently pinched and pressed it back and forth, and then pushed it, and Hua Jiao shouted: "Don't touch me, it hurts!" ”
It really hurts.
She felt like her feet were about to be broken by him.
"Third child, you are light, you men have heavy hands." Feng Shi reminded with a candle, Pei Ze glanced at Hua Jiao meaningfully, and pinched her feet back and forth, "Okay, it's okay, get up and walk a few steps to try, does it still hurt?" ”
Sichuan pepper tentatively got up and took a few steps.
It still hurts, but it's bearable.
"Okay, it doesn't hurt anymore." Sichuan pepper said truthfully.
Feng Shi breathed a sigh of relief, put down the candle and said, "I'll pour you a glass of water." ”
Pei Ze also walked out, and after a while walked in with a mud basin, took a cloth towel from the next room and walked in, soaked it with water, put it on her ankle, pressed it with his hand, and instructed: "Use cold water for an hour tonight and you'll be fine." ”
Feng Shi looked at the two of them, put down the water glass and left: "It's okay, I'll go back and sort out my luggage first, and the third child, you can help the peppercorns apply cold compresses!" ”
The little couple of people are talking about me and me, and she is no longer here to be an eyesore.
And they were tired after a day's work.
The accommodation was assigned very tacitly.
Wang Rong and Feng's family lived in the east wing, Guan Mao lived in the west wing, Lao Li Tou and Lao Lin Tou went to the west room of the main house, and the one next door to Huajiao was naturally left to Pei Ze. ”
"Don't move, I just have something to tell you." Pei Ze kicked off his shoes and got on the kang, put her leg on his lap, gave her a cold compress with one hand, and helped her massage back and forth with the other. ”
"There are a lot of muscular fish here, but they are not everywhere, and the schools of muscular fish are gathered in the southern sea, and most of the people in the vicinity are fishing, so we will go farther, but not too far, and the boat will come back when it is full." Pei Ze said, "We don't usually come back to eat at noon, we need to bring some in the morning, and we can come back later, leaving you and your cousin at home, your main task is to cook, and do as much as you can do the rest of the things, we will come back to marinate the fish in the morning, and then dry the fish to the southeast slope the next morning, and then go out to sea to fish, come back to pickle the fish, dry the fish in the morning, you need to understand this process." ”
"Okay, I know." Hua Jiao understood, "Don't worry, it won't delay you." ”
"Actually, I'm really taking you out tonight to familiarize yourself with the road." Pei Ze said calmly, "Although this island is self-sufficient, their locals also have a small market, if you need to buy something, you can go through the cave halfway up the mountain, and you don't have to go over the mountain." ”
"Got it." Sichuan pepper nodded.
"And then ......," Pei Ze wanted to say but stopped.
