Chapter 47: Tenderness and Sweetness
Xi Xiaoshen was single with his cheeks up, looking out the window and was distracted, when he heard the sound of a knock behind him, he hurriedly got up to open the door.
The warm smile on his face immediately dispelled the shadow in her heart, and the tray in his hand was full of delicacies, which successfully awakened her appetite.
"Little gray, in the early spring, yang qi is generated, the most taboo is boring, spinach is the most suitable for soothing the liver and regulating qi. I saw that you didn't eat much at night, and you didn't seem to have much appetite, so I cooked you spinach soup, and you can eat some more!"
"Good, good!" Xi Xiaoshen took it gratefully, the spinach in the soup was green and tender, and the side dishes were duck blood and shiitake mushrooms, as well as her favorite sweet potato vermicelli.
Seeing this, she felt a feeling, and the boredom in her heart was swept away: "Mu Bai, you will make me fat." I'm not a beauty in the first place, and if I become a big fat person, it will be even worse. β
Mu Bai lowered his head and smiled lightly, and stroked Xi Xiaoshen's head dotingly: "What's that, the girl's family is cute when she's chubby." β
"You're joking with me, aren't you?" Xi Xiaoshen raised his head to meet Mu Bai's affectionate eyes, suddenly felt his heartbeat faster, his cheeks were hot, and he looked away at a loss, but he happened to see Jiang Ye passing by the door.
Jiang Ye looked at her and Mu Bai expressionlessly, glanced at the spinach soup on the table, his empty eyes were unpredictable, but the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile.
"Ah, you're here at night......" Xi Xiaoshen was stared at by him at a loss, stood up, quickly picked up two slices of spinach, and beckoned him, "You can also come in and eat some, spinach, soothe the liver and nourish the blood......"
Jiang Ye turned around and left without saying a word, and Xi Xiaoshen thought that he was disgusted again, and sighed lightly.
Mu Bai noticed that she was a little uncomfortable, and comforted her softly: "I think that the identity of the cat demon has been broken, and I don't know how to face you." He is not good at expressing himself, and he may have many words in his heart, but he does not know how to open them. β
"I don't mind anymore, demons should also be treated equally, I shouldn't be prejudiced against him......" Xi Xiaoshen looked at the bowl of spinach soup blankly, but she didn't have the appetite to eat it anymore.
"Ash, actually, I ...... You just need to know that no matter what he is, he won't hurt you!" Mu Bai originally wanted to confide in Xi Xiaoshen about his demon identity, but after thinking about it, the time was not ripe, so he gave up.
Xi Xiaoshen nodded, and was about to say something, only to hear a deafening thunder explode in the sky, and a coquettish cry came from the next room.
"It's not good, it's the snake demon...... Xi Xiaoshen and Mu Bai immediately ran out, and saw the snake demon sitting up from the bed, one eye was clearly swollen, and he was still staring at Jiang Ye with peach blossoms in his eyes, and called out stupidly: "Little brother, you look so handsome......"
"Bang"! As if a conditioned reflex, he raised his hand and threw a right hook, which hit the snake demon's other eye swollen into a walnut. The poor snake demon didn't have time to speak, and was knocked out by him again.
Xi Xiaohui was dumbfounded, and looked at Jiang Ye helplessly: "You, why did you beat her down again? Anyway, she is also a female and female goblin, can't you be a little more generous?"
Jiang Ye didn't expect him to overreact, but he refused to admit it: "As soon as she called me 'little brother', I wanted to flatten her, and I couldn't control these hands." β
"This is also the reason?" Xi Xiaoshen didn't think about it, and blurted out, "You shouldn't hold a grudge against her for exposing your identity and deliberately venting your anger, right?"
Jiang Ye was speechless, and left angrily, Xi Xiaoshen didn't want to say anything to him anymore, and stepped forward to help up the beautiful snake demon who was twitching: "Mu Bai, come and see, she's okay, right?
The snake demon couldn't stand steadily, pulling Xi Xiaoshen around, and between pulling, the dress on Xi Xiaogray's body "banged", she looked down, and the half-foot-long hole under her armpit was broken, vaguely revealing the fair and smooth skin on her chest.
This made her feel distressed: "Oh no, no, I'm just this one dress!"
Mu Bai didn't look over, pretended not to see her spring-like appearance, walked over and grabbed the trembling snake demon, and explained, "You go back to the room first, I'll take care of her." β
"Okay, okay!" Xi Xiaoshen found that he was gone, and hurriedly covered his armpits and bent over and slipped away, "Thank you for your hard work." β
Mu Bai sighed when he heard her running back to the room, shook his head and smiled, and turned to look at the pale snake demon, he raised his index finger and middle finger, and the fingertips immediately revealed a translucent white halo, and he raised his hand to hit the air pocket in the snake demon's chest, gradually stopping the trembling of her body.
"If she is really a vicious male sucking monster, how can she be beaten by that group of aunts in the bazaar......"
Remembering what Xi Xiaoshen had said, Mu Bai pointed his two fingers at the snake demon's eyebrows, and was surprised to find that there were two completely different demonic qi entangled with each other.
A woman's wardrobe is forever missing a piece of clothing, and for Xi Xiaoshen, who only has one piece of clothing, she is going to be a complete tragedy if she has no clothes to wear.
She brought needles and threads, cut the tablecloth, and clumsily sewed and mended them, but the more they mended, the more ugly they became, and the earthworms crawled like stitches, no wonder even the beggar Qiqi couldn't look down on them.
Not long ago, Qiqi asked her to help sew a broken pocket, but her craftsmanship was not only ridiculed by Qiqi, but also said that she had no advantages except for being able to eat.
"Forget it, I'm not a beauty anyway, if I'm ugly, I'll be ugly, just don't go naked. Xi Xiaoshen comforted herself, and was about to muster up the courage to go downstairs, when she suddenly heard a knock on the door, and hurriedly opened the door.
"It's such a coincidence, I'm going to go down now......" Xi Xiaohui saw Mu Bai standing outside the door, and thought he had come to call her to prepare for business, but she soon saw a light yellow silk skirt stacked on the tray that Mu Bai was holding in both hands.
Such a beautiful color, like her favorite spring flowers, and the fabric is soft and shiny, like the glow of pearl and jade.
"This is ......" Yuki Xiao Ash stared at the beautiful dress in a daze, not daring to imagine what she would look like in her.
Mu Bai smiled softly: "A few days ago, I found that the clothes on your body were a little deformed, and the clothes were also worn out, so it is estimated that you won't be able to wear them for long." So, I went to the bazaar to find the Golden Mist Silk and made this dress for you. β
"You, you can still make clothes?" Xi Xiaoshen was moved, and suddenly thought of a particularly serious fact, and hurriedly raised his hand to cover the patch under his armpit, "How do you know that my clothes are torn?
Mu Bai recalled the piece of spring he saw inadvertently, and couldn't help blushing, but this kind of thing became darker and darker the more he was depicted, and he couldn't admit it even if he was killed.
He forced his composure and said solemnly, "No, I didn't peek at you. Your cuffs are frayed on both sides, and anyone can see them. Besides, as the shopkeeper, but the faΓ§ade of the nameless restaurant, you have to have a decent outfit, as the saying goes, people rely on clothes. β
Xi Xiaohui immediately glanced at the tattered cuffs, and thought about it, Mu Bai had never lied to her, and always tried his best to help her, such a kind person, how could she question his character!
Besides, even if Mu Bai's abilities in all aspects are outstanding, it is impossible for him to buy fabrics and make clothes overnight!
"Oh, that's it......" Xi Xiaoshen took the new dress apologetically, "That, I'm thinking about it again, don't you mind! Thank you for helping me make clothes, wait for me, I'll change into ......"
"Wait, and this one is also for you......" Mu Bai took out an elegant embroidery sachet and handed it to Xi Xiaoshen, and said with a warm smile, "This sachet is just right for your clothes......"
"Wow, what a good day today, give me so many gifts!" Xi Xiaoshen gently rubbed the sachet with his hand, and a sweet smile spread out of the corner of his eyes, "Is this also what you made with your own hands?"
Before Mu Bai could answer, Xi Xiaoshen was already so happy that she couldn't close her mouth, and said solemnly: "Mu Bai, thank you very much!"
Mu Bai said politely, "You're welcome", and saw Xi Xiaoshen go back to the room, and turned around to see Jiang Ye leaning in front of the window, looking a little lonely.
"...... the night" Mu Bai groaned for a while, walked down the stairs and said to him, "There is something, I want to talk to you, I found that the snake demon ......"
