Chapter 209: The palms of the hands are warm and the eyes are cold
Xia Xia had already stacked four or five ingots neatly, and the basket thrown on the side was very bright, and he said: "These ingots should be folded and sent to her quickly, today is the first day of passing over, so that Aunt Lian can also be dotted below." β
I helped fold them together and said, "Why don't you fold there and come back?" Take a stack of papers, and send it back is a basket of ingots, how tiring it is to go back and forth. β
Xia Xia said: "Isn't it worrying that Sister Fei, you are home alone, Sister Song and Brother Haipiao went to see Miss Zheng early in the morning, and the third brother went back to rest after eating - that Yan Wrong - I don't know where to run early in the morning, Sister Fei is alone at the bottom of this whole alley, and someone has to be here to answer you." β
I smiled warmly, pushed her head and said, "I'm not a child, so I won't cry when I can't see anyoneβand I'm not the only one, isn't my mother there?" β
Xia Xia seemed to suddenly realize this, puffed up her mouth and nodded: "Oops, I forgot again, I hope she didn't hear it-by the way, Sister Fei, if you have nothing to do today, don't go west, you know?" β
I wondered, "What's wrong?" I was about to say that I wanted to go and see how the jewelry was going while it was sunny today. β
Xia Xia shook his hand and said: "Let's change the day, today I just went to the street and heard people in the city say, saying that yesterday's heavy rain washed away the mud on the west slope, and the smell drifted for more than ten miles, but fortunately, the northeast wind blowing now blows the smell to the west, otherwise if it blows to the east, the people in our town will be smoked and unable to live." β
I was surprised, "Could this be the case?" β
Xia Xia said: "Yes, it's okay here, there is no smell, the city is already a little smelly, so everyone doesn't come out for activities." I also asked the big brother who had a scar on the end of his eyebrows, and he said that the yamen should send someone to deal with it soon. β
I wondered, "How can it smell?" I haven't heard of it when I've passed byβ"
"That Xihuayuan is so weird, there are no strange things, who knows what is buried in those mounds, no one has been rummaging for so many years, it must be stinking - Sister Fei, don't ask more, you are so timid, you have to think more if you ask more, and you have to scare yourself if you think more."
I muttered: "I don't know if Lord Shangguan's illness has improved - this is all sick, something happened again, and the ghost of Xihuayuan is so ...... that "The woman covered in blood in Xihuayuan suddenly appeared in my mind, and it scared me a lot!
Xia Xia said: "Hey, this year is really weird, I've been here for so many years, it's been peaceful, this year's things are endless, fortunately, it's Lord Shangguan who is in office now, if I change the previous Lord Zhao, I don't know what to do......"
yes, this year, why this year? Is this year any different?
Shouldn't I put things in order and think about why so much is happening?
"Hey, Brother Haipiao is backβ" Xia Xia quickly stood up and ran out.
I followed behind, Hai Piao had already walked to the gate of the courtyard, and when he saw us coming out, he raised a box wrapped in cloth in his hand, and said with a smile: "I'll put something first, and I'll come in a while." β
Xia Xia quipped: "What is so precious that it must be put back in his own home?" β
Hai Piao hugged the things in his arms and said with a smile: "I'm afraid that the third brother will rob the baby, so it's better to put it back in the hut for safety." β
Xia Xia smiled and went back inside, and said, "It must be related to Sister Song, this Haipiao brother, only if it is Sister Song's matter, will he be so serious." β
I muttered, "Yes, but Song Lingjian never seemed to care. You said that in this life, how many people can care about themselves, why can she be ruthless, she can pretend not to see or hear? β
Xia Xia said softly: "Maybe-maybe she has a hard time, Sister Song is a good person, maybe she just doesn't want to owe something, so she doesn't want to accept other people's well, isn't she the same for Sister Fei, everything has to be understood, right?" β
It's true that I often think that she is too unusual, but after so many years, she is still like this.
Speaking of which, Hai Piao had already come in, and I pulled him to sit down and asked, "How is Miss Zheng's illness?" You went out early in the morning, why did you come back now? What about Song Lingjian? β
Haipiao stared at the paper ingots in the basket, he might not have seen it, so he was very curious, picked up one and played with it in his hand, and replied, "She has something to do halfway, come back later." Miss Zheng was very ill, and Dabao took good care of her and made her a lot of delicious snacks, but Ling said that Sister Fei couldn't eat it, and Xia Xia would go to the hospital to get a few. β
The sea drifts every day, and the words become more and more fluent, and a paragraph can be said longer and longer.
It turned out that the treasure that was going to be hidden just now was a snack made by Dabao.
Zheng Jewel and Huang Dabao may have also compromised with their fate - perhaps, they have never resisted.
I sighed, remembering the paranoia in my dream when Zheng Zhuzhu was so stubborn that he did not hesitate to destroy himself to rebel against fate, I couldn't help but feel a little scared, and said, "I hope they can be okay." β
Hai Piao also seemed to have a lot on his mind, looking into the distance in confusion. Song Lingjian left him alone again.
"What is this? It's so beautiful with bling, what is it for? Hai Piao quickly adjusted his mood and rolled the paper ingots curiously in his hand.
Xia Xia took it back, placed it properly in the middle of the table, patted Hai Piao's hand like a big sister, and said, "This is a gold ingot for the dead in the underworld, you can't play with it casually." β
Hai Piao smiled and said, "When a person dies, do you still need silver?" β
Xia Xia said: "Of course you have to use it, and the underworld must also have land to live in and silver to make it-"
Hai Piao smiled: "It's okay, if such a person dies, it can be said that he is alive in another form," after that, he took a piece of ingots with great interest, looked at it again and again, and said, "How did you fold it?" Teach me. β
Xia Xia said: "Why do you learn this?" This is a vain thing, unlucky. β
Hai Piao said: "The gift of the deceased is also a heart. β
Xia Xia glanced at Haipiao with emotion, and said sincerely: "Brother Haipiao is better than any of us-"
I pretended to be angry and said, "Is it better than Sister Fei?" β
Xia Xia nodded and said: "Yes, Sister Fei's good talk can't be finished for three days and three nights, but Brother Haipiao's goodness makes people can't talk about it, and Brother Haipiao is bolder than you, guessing riddles is accurate, but you are much smarter than Sister Fei, and you are not like Sister Fei, you are always worried about crying......"
I was dissatisfied: "Go, go, it's really a girl who grows up and turns her elbow outward, and it's not you who are counting me downβ"
Xia Xia chuckled, stuffed the ingots in my hand, got up and said, "Sister Fei herself has nothing to say, right, you come to teach Brother Haipiao, I'll go to the kitchen to find something to eat, and I'll be back soon." β
Hai Piao smiled and watched, the ingots in his hand had been folded in half, it was actually flat and square, and there was no mistake in the private step, he just saw Xia Xia fold such a one, and he knew how to fold it?
"Sister Xia Xia is just having fun with Sister Fei, don't worry." Haipiao handed me the folded ingots and asked with a smile, "I don't know if there are any wrong details, Sister Fei will check it." β
I gently folded the ingots, not bad at all, although it is not a complicated thing, but the sea drift learns really quickly, normal people have to look at least two or three times, and fold the wrong three or two to fold it right.
Song Lingjian rejected Haipiao from the beginning, was it because she knew early on that he was unfathomably smart? But is it also a sin to be wise?
Xia Xia came back and sat down angrily.
I saw that she was empty-handed, and wondered, "What's wrong?" I didn't have food in the kitchen, so I asked the rat to steal and eat all of it? β
Xia Xia rolled her eyes and said, "Rats are not as hateful as him-"
At this time, the smell of ginger and sugar suddenly wafted from the backyard, which was particularly heartwarming on a cold winter morning, and the ginger soup she cooked yesterday was hot again?
Haipiao sniffed it, looked up and said, "What smells so good?" β
Xia Xia exhaled and said: "It's not that Yan Fault, I didn't pay attention to him when I asked him to eat just now, and I didn't know what I was doing when I went to the kitchen, and he drove me out, for fear that I would steal the teacher." β
It turned out that he was kicked out of the kitchen by Yan Cuo, no wonder he was empty-handed, these two vindictive enemies, I smiled: "Yan Cuo's ears can't hear, didn't he deliberately ignore you." β
Xia Xia folded the ingots hard and said indignantly: "Who knows, he has the best ability to pretend to be deaf and dumb." It's not like we don't have anything to eat for him, so we have to make some ginger noodles ourselves. β
"It's so fragrant, I'll take a look." Hai Piao stood up, patted Xia Xia's head comfortingly and dotingly, and walked to the backyard.
As soon as the sea drifted away, Xia Xia immediately pulled me and whispered: "I want to see what that guy is pretending to do, don't burn my stove." β
So we followed quietly like a mischief, and I wondered what Hai Piao would talk about with Yan Cuo.
We hid behind two small stoves outside the kitchen and watched, and saw Hai Piao and Yan Cuo sitting on the edge of the table in the kitchen, and there was a bowl of steaming noodle soup on the table, with ginger flavor mixed with sugar flavor, it should be ginger noodles.
Hai Piao knocked on the table and said to Yan Cuo, who was distracted: "If you don't eat it again, the noodles will be cold." β
"I've cooked a lot, would you like a bowl?" Yan got up and wanted to give Hai Piao a bowl.
Haipiao grabbed him and shook his head: "I'm not hungry." β
Yan Cuo sat back disappointed, picked up the noodle bowl and said, "Then I'll eat it myself." β
Hai Piao nodded, looked at the ginger noodles in the pot, and said, "But when I came in just now, Sister Fei was mentioning that she wanted to eat something to warm up, such as ginger soup and ginger noodles to warm up." β
When did I say this? Moreover, why are you mentioning me in front of Yan Cuo?
Sure enough, Yan Cuo's calm face immediately overflowed with displeasure, put down the bowl and said coldly: "If she wants to eat, someone will make it for her." β
Haipiao stared at it and smiled: "What you make is better than Xia Xia." Moreover, Xia Xia is busy collecting fake lines for real tail goods, and it is not suitable to touch the water and cook often after recovering from a serious illness. Didn't you see that Sister Fei called the fresh food outside to eat these days? Anyway, you still have it in the pot, and it's inconvenient to heat it again when it's cold, so why not share a bowl with Sister Fei? β
Hai Piao deliberately mentioned the false thread for the truth, isn't it implying that Yan is wrong about what he has done, so he is not afraid of angering him?
Yan Cuo gritted her teeth and said reluctantly: "Whatever, she wants to eat it herself, if she doesn't eat it, it's okay to pour it out, and I also save the trouble of washing the pot." He began to eat the noodles, and it seemed that he was indeed hungry.
Hai Piao sat on the side with a smile, and waited for him to eat almost before he said, "I see that you are almost finished eating, I happen to go out to buy some paper, you can go with me." β
"Okay." Yan Cuo drank the soup quickly, as if he was afraid of making Hai Piao wait longer, but Hai Piao didn't wait, and immediately stood up and walked out.
Oops!
Xia Xia reacted quickly and pulled me back.
