Chapter 28: Drink Down
“…… Gentian, strychnine, incense bark. Picking out the last few medicinal materials needed for the appropriate amount, Lin Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and began to refine the pills.
By the time the pills needed were refined, it had been more than an hour, and Lin Xiaoliang found some small porcelain bottles to fill the pills, planning to send them to the little brother tomorrow.
The tonic pills she made were all nourishing pills for the brain and minds, which were of great help to Lin Xiaoxue, who had not recovered after her body had recovered from her illness.
She was also worried that Lin Xiaoxue, who had finally gotten better, would weaken again because of this meningitis.
After a busy day, she stretched and began to wander around the space.
Over the past few years, she has done a lot of construction in the space intermittently, and the endless fields of the new space have been filled by her, and all kinds of crops grow in it, which is very spectacular at a glance.
Lin Xiaoliang sometimes feels that this space is a bit of a waste for her, although she uses all the land in the space, but it is completely out of the thrifty thinking of the older generation, and the harvest can only be put into the warehouse space to occupy the area. She is a person with no ambitions, and she has never thought of building a supermarket chain, nor has she thought of creating a food kingdom.
Looking at the vibrant scene in front of her, and thinking of the mountains of products piled up in the warehouse space, she suddenly had the idea of wanting to do something, but it was just an idea, and she still had no clue what to do.
I bought two toys that were suitable for playing with small rice cakes in the exchange shop, but they were not too shocking, and Lin Xiaoliang went out of the space.
Shen Chi went out for something, she went to the kitchen to take the noodles out of the basin and start making noodles.
She has never had too high requirements for the appearance of her food, as long as it tastes good. The appearance is simple and pleasing to the eye, but today the little rice cake reminded her that she didn't care about herself, but it was impossible not to care about the little rice cake of a child.
It's not like she can't do it anyway, it's just a little bit of effort. It can make the child happy, so why not?
Flowering steamed buns, piggy milk steamed buns, rabbit steamed buns, rose steamed buns, butterfly steamed buns...... These are unfilled, but she puts some special alien ingredients in them, and the taste is never monotonous. Lin Xiaoliang plans to keep his son in the refrigerator for breakfast, of course, it can also be used to show off to his friends.
For small rice cakes reveal the child's nature. Lin Xiaoliang usually doesn't restrain him.
It's a pity that there is no oven, otherwise there will be more patterns in the pastries, and I don't know what the small rice cakes will become.
After putting the finished steamed buns in a disposable lunch box and putting them in the refrigerator, Lin Xiaoliang began to make dumplings again, although Shen Chi likes to eat steamed buns. But no matter how delicious things are, she can't help but eat more, this time she plans to make dumplings, make some minced meat fried sauce and egg fried sauce, and knead some noodles out, the father and son don't like to eat soup noodles, but like to eat fried noodles with a strong flavor.
In addition to these, Lin Xiaoliang also made some shrimp dumplings and roasted wheat until the refrigerator was full. Only then did he stop.
When Jiang Xiaomei came, Lin Xiaoliang was cutting the finished hawthorn cake into pieces when she saw her coming. Stuffed a piece of hawthorn cake directly into her mouth, "Taste it, how does it taste?" ”
"Yes, it's just that there is a little little rock candy." Jiang Xiaomei said after eating.
"No way, Xiao Rice Cake and Shen Chi don't like sweetness." Lin Xiaoliang said helplessly.
"Is that so? The kids in my class love candy, and last week a boy rolled on the floor because of tooth decay. It was a mess in the hospital, and the child's family conditions were not good. Entangled with us over medical expenses, I almost couldn't afford to pay out of my own pocket. Jiang Xiaomei sighed.
She loves the profession of kindergarten teacher. Although those children are sometimes a headache, they are very cute, but they are a headache when they meet some parents who are messing around.
"Since the conditions at home are not good, how can you still eat sugar and have tooth decay?" Lin Xiaoliang is experienced, when she was a child, she basically couldn't eat sugar at all during the New Year's Festival, or during the New Year's Day, because she took care of those nephews and nieces, the sugar was also passed by her, and there was no chance of tooth decay.
"It hurts the child too much." Jiang Xiaomei pinched another piece of hawthorn cake and ate it, "That child has two older sisters, in order to give birth to him, his parents' jobs were lost, and the family was tight, but he still loved him like a little bully." ”
"Are boys and girls that important?" Jiang Xiaomei sighed, and said enviously to Lin Xiaoliang: "Xiaoliang, you are so lucky, you gave birth to a son of Xiao Nian Cake in your first child." ”
Lin Xiao was stunned, and reacted in hindsight, "Are you worried too early?" ”
"Although my uncle and aunt are good to me, Ah Feng is the only son in the family, and no one believes them if they don't expect their grandson." Jiang Xiaomei sighed.
Lin Xiaoliang had a sense of disobedience in her heart, it seemed that she had missed a lot, at least in the past, the heartless Jiang Xiaomei would not have considered so much, and I don't know if it was because of growth or love.
She was a little relieved, but also a little worried, hoping that Yi Feng was not the second Luo Ai Party.
"How did you come up with that? Could it be that his parents said they wanted to hold their grandson? ”
"When I see a lot, I think of myself, most of the children in my class, most of the boys are picked up by their grandparents, but most of the girls are picked up by their parents, isn't this enough to explain anything?" Jiang Xiaomei said with some sorrow: "Uncle and aunt didn't say it, but isn't this kind of thing obvious?" ”
"I think you're overthinking. Or you can ask Yi Feng, if he said that he didn't like it if he gave birth to a daughter, then you don't have to think about getting married, just dump her and find another one. Lin Xiaoliang suggested rationally.
Jiang Xiaomei was a little dumbfounded when she heard this, and then said for a long time: "This, how can this kind of thing be like this?" ”
"What if that doesn't happen? If you are together, you will get together, and if you don't get together, you will be separated, and it is two people who are reluctant to be together. Lin Xiaoliang looked calm.
"Then you and Shen Chi are just thinking about it?" Jiang Xiaomei blurted out.
Lin Xiaoyan was silent for a moment, she wanted to say that her marriage with Shen Chi had no choice, but she couldn't say it when it came to her mouth.
Jiang Xiaomei smiled, "Little girl, you actually like Shen Chi too, right?" ”
Although she is simple, as a little sister who grew up together, she sometimes knows her better than Lin Xiaoliang herself. Everyone else said that Lin Xiaoliang was high, but this was not wrong, so Lin Xiaoliang was not a person who could accept an emotionless husband just because of responsibility.
She is willing to take care of the housework for Shen Chi and is willing to share the bed with Shen Chi, not just because of Xiao Nian Cake, her son.
She might have thought so, but she definitely wouldn't last long.
But Shen Chi and Lin Xiaoliang's marriage has lasted for four years.
"I didn't like Shen Chi originally, because I knew that you weren't a reluctant person in marriage. Shen Chi used that kind of means to marry you, you have a pimple with him in your heart for probably a lifetime, you can endure it for a while for the sake of your child, but you can't endure it for a lifetime. After a pause, Jiang Xiaomei showed a happy smile on her face, "But what makes me happy is that although your marriage did not start well, it has been seen for a long time, and Shen Chi is indeed the man who can impress you." ”
Lin Xiaoliang couldn't hear anything at this time, only the sentence "You are not a person who will be reluctant in marriage" kept circulating in his mind.
She knows what Jiang Xiaomei said, but what does she think?
- Lin Xiaoliang is indeed not a person who is willing to be reluctant in marriage, but Lin Xiaoliang, who was reborn, is different, she has experienced the pain of losing her child, she has been lonely for half her life, and the edges and corners of her character have been smoothed out after experiencing those, so for the sake of the child, she can accept Shen Chi as her husband and the father of her child. As long as the child can be well, she will be able to accept Shen Chi.
But is that really the case?
There was a voice in my heart shouting - no, no!
Yes, only she understands what a proud person she is in her heart, she Lin Xiaoliang has repeatedly hit a wall in the magazine in her previous life, and has been said to be fake and high, and her eyes are low, because she only has a high school degree and is questioned about her ability, and she is just introverted on the extreme side of her personality.
She has never changed.
Faced with the final answer, Lin Xiaoliang wanted to escape, but reality did not allow it.
"Little girl, Shen Chi doesn't need to say anything about your heart, but he will also be tired, if you don't respond to him all the time, he may want to make up for it in other women, is that what you want to see?" Jiang Xiaomei has been holding back these words for a long time, but she used to be in the capital, and Xiao Qian was in the magic capital, and it was rare to get together once Shen Chi would follow Xiao Ling, and she was not easy to say.
Lin Xiaoliang, who Jiang Xiaomei left, didn't know until Shen Chi and Xiao Rice Cake went home, and Lin Xiaoliang was still sitting there.
"Wanwan, what's wrong?" There was no smell of the food at the door, Shen Chi felt that something was wrong, and when he saw Lin Xiao sitting on the sofa in a daze, his heart fluttered.
Lin Xiaoyan came back from his thoughts, raised his head and crashed into Shen Chi's affectionate and caring gaze, and tears suddenly slipped uncontrollably from the corners of his eyes.
"Wanwan, what's wrong with you? What's uncomfortable? Shen Chi panicked, wiping her tears and saying distressedly.
Realizing that he was actually crying, Lin Xiaoliang was embarrassed for a while, and simply threw himself into Shen Chi's arms, not letting him see his face.
Shen Chi hugged her with a full embrace, but he didn't have any charming thoughts, and lowered his head and coaxed: "Wanwan, is someone bullying you?" ”
He thought of Liu Yuzhi and Lu Rong for the first time, and suddenly, his eyes turned cold after being anxious.
"No, I'm fine." Finding that Shen Chi had misunderstood, Lin Xiaoliang hurriedly spoke sullenly.
"Then will you look up and let me see?" Because he couldn't see Lin Xiaoling's expression, Shen Chi couldn't judge the truth of her words.
is so big that he still cries his nose, where is Lin Xiaoliang willing to look up? Especially the little rice cake is still shouting for her mother next to her.
Shen Chi was still not at ease, but he inadvertently glanced at Lin Xiao's red earlobes, and suddenly became shy.
Knowing that Lin Xiaoliang was not being bullied, Shen Chi breathed a sigh of relief, and said to the anxious little rice cake: "Mom, it's okay, little rice cake go to the yard to play." ”
Xiao Rice Cake wanted to say that he was hungry and wanted to eat, but when he looked up at Shen Chi's gaze, he could only go out wilted. (To be continued)
