Chapter 21: Is He Pretending to Be Calm?

Heng Qiao looked a little proud, "I learned it by reading books myself." ”

"You like to read?" Lu Yu lowered his head and brushed aside the grass, found a mountain horse ling, avoided the burrs, and after splitting the branches and leaves, he dug out its roots.

"I like it," Heng Qiao took Shan Ma Ling from his hand and said nonsense, "I like to read very much, but I don't have the conditions to continue studying, otherwise I would have been admitted to university like you." ”

She asked Lu Yu to take the branches and berries, and the two went down the mountain together.

The mountain road was steep, Hengqiao was not familiar with the road conditions, and suddenly his feet slipped, and he fell backwards, and was hugged by Lu Yu from behind.

"Be careful!" He hugged her, his hand touched her soft place, and hurriedly let go.

Hengqiao had never been hugged like this in her life, she was quite panicked, but she pretended to be calm: "This damn ground, it's too slippery!" ”

Lu Yu walked in front of her, turned around and took her hand, and went down the mountain carefully.

"It's easy to go up the mountain, but it's hard to go down."

"yes."

When he spoke, he didn't seem to think about it, but Hengqiao felt the sweat in his palms, and she secretly wondered if he didn't treat her ugly girl as a young girl, or was he just like himself, pretending to be calm?

After returning, Lu Yu found her a bowl, and together with her, he mashed the roots and berries of Shanmaling, and wrapped them in a piece of gauze.

Brother Zhao lay down, Heng Qiao lifted her clothes to check, and the place where she was kicked by Wang Da Leper was a little bruised. She secretly gritted her teeth, this damn bastard, she must teach him a lesson!

"Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt." Brother Zhao shook his head.

Heng Qiao put medicine on her, and it was estimated that the child was enduring the pain, and she gently touched her hair and rubbed it on her cheek.

"Sister, I'll be fine tomorrow." Brother Zhao yawned and closed his eyes.

Late at night, the mother and sisters were already asleep, Hengqiao asked the seventh uncle and seven aunts to discuss the matter of making steamed buns and snacks, and the seventh aunt asked Hengqiao what she needed, and she gave her credit first.

Heng Qiao thought for a while, she changed the recipe for cooking porridge tomorrow, bought a pack of black plum porridge in the town today, boiled black plum porridge tomorrow, and she bought yeast and flour in the town today, she saw more than a dozen pumpkins on the kitchen floor, and asked Aunt Qi if she had glutinous rice flour.

"Yes, I just ground fresh powder yesterday, how much do you want?"

"You first weigh me five kilograms of glutinous rice flour, one kilogram of sugar, a pot of vegetable oil, a can of red bean paste, and a pumpkin."

"Pumpkins, don't count the money, I'll give you one first."

"No, no, no, when it comes to business, raw materials have to be counted as money." Heng Qiao shook his head and took the paper to write down the account.

"Aunt Seven, it's all written down, and I will definitely pay it back as soon as possible." Hengqiao tied his apron, rolled up his sleeves, and started work with his hands and feet. Even if the business is not good tomorrow, she will work for the Lu family in the future, and she will have to pay back tonight's credit.

The seventh uncle and seven aunts are also diligent people, one boils water in the pot, and the other cuts pumpkin on the steamer. The three of them were busy until the second half of the night, and a few baskets of fragrant pumpkin pie came out of the pot!

"Hurry up and squint for a while, get up at half past five, and go out of the stall to sell cakes!" The seventh aunt quickly cleaned up the stove.

Hengqiao was also sleepy, she and Aunt Qi borrowed an alarm clock, adjusted the alarm clock, and went back to the room to rest.

It rained in the second half of the night, and the wind and rain outside were very strong, Hengqiao closed his eyes, listened to the sound of wind and rain, and tossed and turned on the bamboo bed for a while. She kept repeating in her mind the scene of Lu Yu hugging her and going down the mountain hand in hand with her.

Lu Yu's shirt had a faint smell of him, which made her a little ape-like, and after she took a deep breath, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
