Chapter 8: Blisters

"There are bubbles."

Bei Xiaoya looked at his inquiring gaze and pointed to her palm.

Only then did Yu Yang notice that there was a blister under her middle finger, because her hand was too white, and it was really not easy to find if she didn't look carefully. It's quite big, translucent. He looked down and blew on her in distress, as if it would relieve the pain.

The warm wind swept through her palm, and Bei Xiaoya's palms were tickled by him. She pulled her hand back in embarrassment, pretending not to care.

"It's okay, maybe I accidentally grinded it out of hoeing in the morning."

After speaking, he continued to pick up the knife behind him and prepare to chop vegetables.

"Don't do it, I'll go to the cafeteria and get you food."

Without waiting for her to respond, Yu Yang turned around and went out. It didn't take long for him to come back with a familiar lunch box.

"I have something to do in the afternoon, so I can't eat with you."

He said as he put the lunch box on the coffee table.

"Don't go to the fields in the afternoon, or it will hurt if the soak rots."

Bei Xiaoya nodded obediently, although she wanted to adapt to life here as soon as possible, she also had to do what she could. Although she had suffered a lot of hardships in practicing taekwondo before, it was the first time that her slender jade fingers had blisters. This hand is what she uses to paint, so of course she should take good care of it.

Yu Yang looked at her pitiful appearance, and felt a pinprick in her heart.

"You're very good at drawing, otherwise I'll apply you to join the propaganda team, right?"

Propaganda team, isn't that where his old lover stays, she can't hide. Bei Xiaoya refused without thinking about it.

"I'm doing a good job, thank you for your kindness."

Yu Yang saw that her tone was firm, so she didn't say anything. He turned his head to look at the pendulum clock in the room, thinking that the time was up, and then left without saying a word.

It was a very difficult afternoon, and the bubble in her hand would hurt when she held a pen, so she gave up after two strokes. Seeing that the sun was setting in the west, the sun was not so strong, so I went out leisurely.

After the family's food is finished, she has to go to the small market to buy some more. Last time I went with Yu Yang, I just felt that the neighborhood was a bit deserted. Now walking here alone, I feel panicked in my heart. It's so big, you can't see a creature that can breathe, let alone a person. Bei Xiaoya couldn't help but speed up her pace.

The small market arrived, and it was not much different from the last time she came, and when she had chosen the dishes and was about to leave, she saw a few small animals with white flowers.

Sheep.

She'd seen it at the zoo before. At that time, the zoo had a special counter to sell vegetables and carrots, and for 20 yuan you could buy one and go into a yard to feed the sheep. When she was still young, her father carried her on his shoulders, and she showed off on his father's shoulders like a little general. The mood was instantly low, and Dad got the news of her death, and he didn't know how sad he would be.

"Want to buy one?" When the sheep seller saw that he was staring at the sheep, he asked.

Bei Xiaoya nodded, and then picked a small, white hair curl attached to her body, looking like a teddy dog in her arms.

"Do you want to help kill?"

The sheep seller came to her with a knife and asked her.

"Nope."

Bei Xiaoya hurriedly took out two yuan and gave it to him, and then hugged the lamb and walked back.

It's good that there is finally one more gasp in the family in the future. Bei Xiaoya walked halfway, and the yellow sand suddenly rose in the east, and it took a while for her to see that it was an off-road vehicle, and there was a small group of soldiers behind the off-road vehicle.

She was just about to continue her journey when the SUV suddenly stopped beside her, and the left door was opened, and a person jumped out of the car.

That person was Yu Yang, who said that he was going on a mission at noon.

Yu Yang got out of the car and waved his hand to the driver, the car started and continued to drive in the direction of the troops, and he walked towards Bei Xiaoya.

Bei Xiaoya looked at the soldiers of the squad who followed the car and looked back at them while running, lowered her head a little embarrassed, and their discussion faintly reached the bottom of her ears.

"Our major is so blessed, my daughter-in-law is so beautiful."

"The skin is still white, the last time I went to deliver something, I saw her two legs, which were fine and white, and very tender."

"Be quiet, the Major will gouge out your eyes when he hears them."

The man was so frightened that he quickly covered his mouth and didn't dare to turn his head back. Bei Xiaoya raised her head when she heard them go away, and her ears couldn't help but feel a little hot.

"What are you?"

Yu Yang reached out to take the dish she was carrying, his eyes staring at the sheep in her arms.

"Sheep." Blind, no matter how small you are, you can tell it's a sheep.

He wanted to ask what he was doing with the sheep, but seeing her expression, he obviously misunderstood what he meant, and he didn't bother to distinguish it, so he walked back to the family home with her with the vegetables.

When she returned home, Bei Xiaoya found a rope to tie it outside the house, thinking that she would go to the field tomorrow to cut the grass and bring it back just enough to feed it.

The bubble on her hand was still accidentally scratched, and she thought that she might have been kicked by the lamb when she was holding it. She didn't notice it along the way, but when she saw the white flesh under her skin at this moment, she couldn't help but grin, and she couldn't tell whether it was heartache or wound pain.

After the two of them finished dinner, Yu Yang didn't dare to ask her to wash the dishes, so he cleaned up the kitchen by himself and went out without saying a word.

Bei Xiaoya thought that he was going back to rest, so she got up and locked the door, and then went back to the bedroom to rinse down and change into pajamas at will.

She was just about to lie down and rest when there was another knock on the door. She went out suspiciously and opened the door, it turned out that Yu Yang had gone and returned.

He still walked in without saying a word, and saw Bei Xiaoya standing motionless in front of the door before he opened his mouth and called, "Come and sit down." ”

Bei Xiaoya didn't know what he was doing, so she stared at him and didn't move.

"The potion from the infirmary, apply it quickly."

Bei Xiaoya noticed the purple medicine bottle in his hand, so she obediently sat next to him.

I accidentally got wet in the bath just now, and the rotten piece of meat became even whiter.

Yu Yang grabbed her blistering hand with one hand, and dipped a cotton swab in purple potion with the other hand and carefully applied it to her hand.

His hands were thick and hard, and the back of Bei Xiaoya's hand could clearly feel the calluses in his palms.

"This potion is ugly."

Deep purple, her palms looked dirty, like paint accidentally touched while painting.

Yu Yang couldn't help but smile when he saw her staring at her hand with a look of disgust. He lowered his head close to her palm and blew, and the purple potion quickly dried in the wind.

Yu Yang grabbed her soft hand, smelled her unique milk fragrance closely, and her heart rippled. Only then did he notice that Bei Xiaoya was wearing a broadband vest, and the shorts on her body were short to the root of her thighs because she was sitting, and she was full of white flowers under her eyes.

He couldn't help but swallow his saliva and let go of the hand that was holding her.

Bei Xiaoya inadvertently saw his shaking Adam's apple and saw his eyes open, and suddenly remembered what the soldier said during the day, "It's tender." Then he blushed.

She scrambled to her feet and said with a sinister expression, "I want to rest." ”

"Okay."

Yu Yang also got up immediately, glanced at her, and walked out.

Bei Xiaoya closed the door immediately after he left, and she couldn't help but lean her back against the door and let out a long breath.

The atmosphere between the two of them just now was a little ambiguous.
