Chapter 11: Embarrassed?
Ji Mingyue just wanted to ask Huo Ting what he was doing with cotton cloth, but Huo Ting glanced at Ji Mingyue lightly, and continued, "When the time comes, you can make yourself a change of clothes." ”
Ji Mingyue secretly took a bath in the kitchen every night, and after washing and waiting for the clothes to dry before putting them back to the room, Huo Ting actually knew it when he heard the sound of water in the kitchen.
Ji Mingyue was stunned, this cotton cloth was actually accumulated for herself! took a closer look at Huo Ting's face covered by unkempt withered hair and beard, thinking that this person was a little rough in appearance, but he didn't want to be a careful one.
I just don't know what this man's psychology is.
"By the way, Zhao Da has always been responsible for the food in the back kitchen of the dock, and he will hand it over to him, you can do some miscellaneous things, you don't have to be strong!"
Huo Ting emphasized again. He originally arranged Ji Mingyue in the back kitchen of the dock, just thinking that the back kitchen of the dock was leisurely and close to him, so that he could take care of it all the time, who would have thought that this woman would really be looking for trouble, and she was busy like a spinning top at noon, and he never found a chance to tell her about it.
Huo Ting began to regret arranging Ji Mingyue into the back kitchen, today's meal of Ji Mingyue, the people in the dock were still chattering all afternoon, the people in the dock were all five or three years thick men, and they were naturally not taboo when they spoke, and there were many vulgar words, although Huo Ting was avoiding him from talking, but in the end it reached Huo Ting's ears, Huo Ting was furious when he heard it, and he couldn't wait to pick up those who talked nonsense on the spot.
Although she didn't know why Huo Ting suddenly said this, Ji Mingyue still cooperated, after all, even if Huo Ting asked her to continue, then Zhao Da would not let her continue.
"Also, in the future, you should try to go out of the kitchen as little as possible, and let others do the things of serving food and setting the table!" Doesn't she know how eye-catching she is when she goes out, the eyes of those pirates who come to eat can't wait to stick to her, and Huo Ting gets angry when she thinks about it.
Ji Mingyue didn't want Huo Ting to talk so much, when she wanted to go out and show her face? Obviously, Huo Ting arranged her in the back kitchen, but now it's better to talk about her.
"There are only a few people in the back kitchen, who can take care of this when I'm busy, if I keep hiding in the kitchen and don't go out, don't talk about Zhao Da, even Mrs. Li will have to talk about it."
Ji Mingyue couldn't help but reply, and after speaking, she regretted that she was impulsive. After all, this is a pirate, if you start a fire and kill yourself, do you want to?
Huo Ting was a little angry, his brows furrowed, and he said sharply, "The people in the back kitchen are embarrassing you?" ”
Huo Ting usually makes people dare not approach when his face is expressionless, and as soon as he frowns, the evil aura in his body can no longer be suppressed.
Ji Mingyue shrunk her neck and hurriedly said, "No one, no one embarrass me, isn't there a big Buddha in the third master, no one dares to embarrass me!" Ji Mingyue felt that if she didn't explain quickly, Huo Ting was about to go out with a knife to kill someone.
Hearing Ji Mingyue say this, Huo Ting breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a serious tone, "If someone embarrasses you in the future, you can tell me!" Huo Ting thought about Ji Mingyue's sentence just now, and his heart suddenly felt full of swelling and strange feelings, but he didn't seem to hate it.
"Oh!" Ji Mingyue replied obediently, looking at Huo Ting with an inquiring expression.
Thinking about it, after all, he is his nominal wife, and a man can't stand his wife being remembered by others, not to mention that he is a dignified and well-headed family, his wife is bullied, and he has a lot of face, so he protects himself like this!
But no matter what the reason, it's good to be able to protect yourself. After all, if there was no one to protect her on this island, she didn't dare to imagine what would happen to her.
The next day, Huo Ting left early in the morning, Ji Mingyue simply cleaned up and prepared to go to the dock, but she didn't want to go out and found the flower girl who was already squatting at her door and shivering.
"Sister Hua, why are you here?" Ji Mingyue hurriedly stepped forward to help the person up, Hua Gu raised her head, Ji Mingyue found that half of Hua Gu's face was swollen like a steamed bun, her forehead was also black, and her eyes were red, obviously crying. Even the wrist that was held by Ji Mingyue was slightly purple and purple.
Ji Mingyue's heart trembled, "Sister Hua, what's wrong with you?" ”
Ji Mingyue didn't ask, but when she asked, Hua Gu's tears fell from her eyelids without warning, and she said in a trembling voice, "Sister, my sister really has no choice, I want to borrow you to hide here, he doesn't dare to come to your house!" ”
Ji Mingyue hurriedly brought people into the house, "What happened?" Who wouldn't dare to come? Did he hit you? Ji Mingyue still remembers the first time she saw Hua Gu in the fish farm, she was a hearty and kind woman, how could she not be associated with such a frightened and helpless appearance now.
After being brought into the house, Hua Gu's emotions finally calmed down, and she slowly explained the cause and effect to Ji Mingyue.
"Sister, in fact, I didn't tell you before, in fact, I am also a sea girl, but other sea women have dead husbands, but I have a husband, but my husband is not as good as dead!"
"My husband was bitten by a big fish when he went to sea in his early years, and although he saved his life, he was missing a leg, and since then, his temperament has changed. He stayed at home all day and didn't go out, but drank at home, often drunk and unconscious. No matter how much I tried to persuade him, he didn't listen, and even the family's savings and food were exchanged for wine. ”
"He doesn't go out all day, there is nothing left at home, if there is really no way, who wants to do such a shitty job, strip naked and jump into the sea? But when he found out, he began to curse me, scolding me for not keeping women's morals, and scolding me for being shameless..... He even suspected that I was having an affair with another man, and since then he has been beating and scolding me when he gets drunk......"
Hua Gu said and lifted her sleeves, and Ji Mingyue found that the injuries on Hua Gu's body were more serious than those on her face, especially the red marks on her back, which were shocking to see.
"Is there a Lang Zhong on the island? I'll go find Lang Zhong with you to heal his injuries! Ji Mingyue didn't know before, but only then did she find out that Hua Gu's injury was so serious, naturally she couldn't delay for a moment, so she had to find Lang Zhong for treatment quickly.
But she didn't want Hua Gu to hold Ji Mingyue, "It's okay for me to be injured, I'll just pick some Tianqi and put it on myself, I'm used to it!" Besides, there is only one Langzhong on the island, who is still in the stockade, and he specializes in treating the injuries of the men of the sea, and the women on the island please don't move! ”
"It is the duty of a doctor to treat the sick and save people, how can he still divide men and women? I'm going to go and get someone over for you!" Ji Mingyue didn't want to, the woman on this island was sick and didn't even have a cure.
"Sister, don't bother, if you have any medicine at home, just wipe it on me. My wounds, I know it myself! Hua Gu insisted on not wanting to invite Lang Zhong, and Ji Mingyue suddenly thought that Huo Ting had told him before that a small box in the wardrobe contained gold sore medicine, and bruises and injuries could be cured.
Ji Mingyue hurriedly rummaged through the boxes and cabinets to find the ointment, and began to clean up the wound and apply medicine for Hua Gu.
"In the end, it is the third master, this gold sore medicine is much stronger than the herbs I picked myself!" Hua Gu smiled.
Ji Mingyue was helpless for a while, "Sister Hua, it's all this time, you still have the heart to say this!" ”
