Chapter 49: Useless work
"Hey, how long are you going to catch it?" Ling Xiaoqi's impatient voice sounded in his ears. Mu Lingshu opened her eyes and looked at the surrounding environment, she had already entered the city, and she was still holding on to Ling Xiaoqi's clothes.
Instantly let go and fell to the ground.
Ling Xiaoqi didn't expect Mu Lingshu to be so stupid, and it was too late to catch her.
"Oops!" Mu Lingshu grinned in pain.
wanted to pull, Mu Lingshu had already patted the soil and stood up by herself.
Ling Xiaoqi asked the doubts in his heart, "The bamboo shoots can't be eaten now, why do you want to pick bamboo shoots?" ”
Mu Lingshu looked at the only remaining bamboo shoot in her hand, can't eat it? I still want to stir-fry dishes! The first time I picked bamboo shoots, I didn't understand!
For Mu Lingshu, who has no ability to distinguish between seasonal vegetables and out-of-season vegetables, this is indeed a bit difficult.
After all, she used to be able to eat any vegetable at any time, and there seemed to be nothing in her memory that she couldn't eat when she wanted to.
Although I often hear people say that spring bamboo shoots and winter bamboo shoots are picked, I have always thought that the bamboo shoots in summer and autumn are only less, and the taste is worse than that in spring and winter.
Mu Lingshu......
"I'm useful, you don't understand."
I like to pick and play, you say you can't eat it, you can't eat it, I love to eat bamboo shoots that turn into bamboo quickly......
Looking at Mu Lingshu's strong appearance, Ling Xiaoqi's first reaction was that he wanted to save expenses, and he had no money in his hand.
Although he helped Mu Lingshu make the crystal ball base, he probably guessed that the transparent glass that appeared on the market was related to her, and it stands to reason that he would not run out of money.
But she made a deal with him, and she must have encountered something, so in order to make her feel at ease to give him a silent letter, the next day he gave a hundred taels of silver to buy what he needed.
In his opinion, the money is spent, and he is embarrassed to ask him.
"Not enough money? You can say it straight later. ”
Enough, too much, there are still a lot left, she picks bamboo shoots by the way, and verifying the ability to speak is the purpose of this trip.
Can you say it straight? Apparently not.
Needless to say, cherishing Shaobai is her biggest secret.
But how do you explain it to Ling Xiaoqi!
couldn't get used to sleeping on a hard bed, so Ling Xiaoqi bought her a soft cushion the next day and asked her to buy a few changes of clothes.
I didn't ask a single cent about the money spent, which gave Mu Lingshu enough trust.
Creditors like Ling Xiaoqi are rare, and it should be said that they are rare in a century.
There is a lot of hers, there is no shortage of her, and she has to dig bamboo shoots, making herself muddy and embarrassed, how can you say it to be round!
Just when Mu Lingshu was thinking about how to deal with the past, Ling Xiaoqi said, "Go home." ”
He saw that Mu Lingshu didn't want to say it, since he didn't want to say it, he didn't need to ask, and what he was forced to say in desperation was just a made-up reason, not true, meaningless.
Besides, what she does has nothing to do with Ling Xiaoqi, as long as she is here, it has nothing to do with him after finishing the book.
Ling Xiaoqi walked forward expressionlessly, and there was not the slightest joy or sorrow on his face.
This guy used to look better the more he smiled, the more dangerous it became, it should be okay if he didn't smile just now, Mu Lingshu couldn't figure it out for a while.
"Hurry up and keep up."
"Oh, here we are." Mu Lingshu hurriedly followed, for fear of angering this dangerous guy, she was not sure that she could avoid his calculations.
Since the two met, they have fought wits and courage many times, and at most it can be regarded as a draw.
As soon as he entered the door, he smelled the aroma of the food, and Mu Lingshu's stomach gurgled and gurgled uncontrollably.
"Bear with me, let's go change clothes first." Ling Xiaoqi looked at Mu Lingshu with disgust.
I haven't heard that if you don't eat cleanly, you don't get sick, how can you be so poor and exquisite, even if I have soil on my body, it is pure natural soil, harmless.
Mu Lingshu could only say these words in her heart, and she still went to change her clothes very honestly.
When Mu Lingshu came out, Ling Xiaoqi had already changed into a clean robe and sat at the table.
"Why don't you eat it?"
"It's cool."
There are a lot of problems with not being able to cook, "Wait." "Mu Lingshu's cooking still needs to be mastered, and it's still okay to heat a dish.
After a while, the fragrant meal was served again.
Ling Xiaoqi glanced up at Mu Lingshu, frowned, and immediately unfolded, and silently picked up the chopsticks without saying anything.
I'm proof of labor, where it's dirty.
Mu Lingshu was not angry, but she still walked to the side and washed her face.
When she was hot just now, she made a gray face, no way, she still has a good grasp of the matter of ignition, and every time she ignites it, it is a big problem.
Knowing that Ling Xiaoqi loves cleanliness and is under the roof, she has to compromise, this compromise is acceptable, after all, she is a big woman who can bend and stretch.
After dinner, Mu Lingshu consciously cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and as soon as he touched Ling Xiaoqi's bowl, he ran away.
What kind of person is this, wipe your mouth and run away after eating, and you didn't let you wash the dishes, you run so fast, isn't Junzi Yuan's cooking just made up by you scholars, and used as an excuse for not cooking.
I know, I don't expect you to help at all. If it was in a previous life, I don't know how many male compatriots contracted the kitchen.
Suddenly I missed her father's cooking, missed her and her mother, each holding a bowl.
"Dad"
"Husband"
I am hungry.
While flipping the spoon, he responded with a smile: "Wait, it'll be fine right away." ”
The tip of her nose was a little sour, Ling Xiaoqi went and returned, holding a bottle of ointment in her hand, stretched out to her and said, "Take medicine." ”
Pull her back to reality.
When she came to get her bowl just now, Ling Xiaoqi noticed that Mu Lingshu had scratches on her hands, which should have been made when picking bamboo shoots.
Which carpenter can not be injured, and it is common to give yourself medicine, gold sore medicine and the like are always available, so I quickly took it for Mu Lingshu, thinking: Girls are very concerned about their appearance, and they should be sad if they fall into a scar.
This is all commonplace for Ling Xiaoqi, sparse and commonplace, but Mu Lingshu, a pampered little lady in the boudoir, should rarely be injured.
"Thank you, it's just that a little injury is not necessary." His voice was a little choked, and his eyes were red.
I don't know how many of these small injuries I have suffered since I was a child, they are scratches, there is no need to make a fuss, it can be fine without medicine, and I don't see any scars, so I don't care about it.
Ling Xiaoqi didn't move to the side, and stood in place to block Mu Lingshu from entering the house, so as to make his position clear.
Isn't it just a box of ointment, as for those who are moved, they want to cry?
Mu Lingshu saw that he was resolute and didn't dwell on it, so she took the ointment and ran back to the room quickly, because she couldn't control the feeling of homesickness and homesickness.
When I entered the room, I couldn't control my tears anymore, gritted my teeth to prevent myself from making a sound, and released and vented silently.
She was also the pearl in the palm of her parents, and she also had a warm home, but now she is in this other world, surrounded by dangers, although she makes herself look strong, but she is still a college student who has not entered the society after all, and she is a child.
I also hope to have a shoulder, a harbor where I can dock, I don't have to run on the road all the time, I work hard to survive, and I am still a duckweed, a rootless duckweed.
After a while, I cleaned up my mood, took good medicine, and knocked on the door of the workshop, "How much is this bottle of medicine, I will pay you back in the future." ”
Ling Xiaoqi said coldly: "No. A hint of displeasure and inexplicable irritability flashed.
"It's better to settle accounts." She didn't want to take advantage, especially someone like Ling Xiaoqi who couldn't see through and couldn't figure it out.
If he is targeted and holds a grudge, he may be able to give Mu Lingshu a fatal blow at any time.
Every penny she spends these days is recorded in the account, and what is spent on her is especially clear, I am afraid that I will not be able to say it in the future.
Mu Lingshu is still very clear about her current situation, although Ling Xiaoqi did not talk about the creditor, nor did she use this identity to bully her, but she is self-aware, and she will not let herself go because Ling Xiaoqi let her go.
"I said no." Ling Xiaoqi's tone became a little heavier, and he slammed the door shut, and Ling Xiaoqi didn't know what he was angry about.
Mu Lingshu couldn't dodge, her nose was almost hit hard, and a burst of anger came out and kicked the door open.
