Chapter 139: Tell a story to the big guy to sleep
Night was falling.
Bai Lu's coat was stained when he poured chestnuts today, and he got some syrup, so he washed an extra coat, put dish soap and washing powder, and finally washed the stains clean.
The phone in the main house rang too.
"Jingle bellโ"
Xiao Wei was the same as last night, after taking a shower and washing his clothes early, and drying his clothes, he sat at the table and waited for the phone, and as soon as the bell rang, he immediately ran out to find Bai Lu.
"Big brother called."
The little one was just as excited as last night.
Bai Lu was also wring her clothes like last night, and smiled: "You answer the phone, my clothes haven't dried yet."
Xiao Wei saw that she was indeed wringing her clothes and had to dry them, so she was not free, so she ran back decisively.
The small steps are like hot wheels, countless times faster than last night, for fear that the phone will stop again.
Fortunately, when I ran to the high table in the main house, the phone was ringing yet, and the little hand picked up the receiver just in time.
"Hello!"
"Lulu."
Voices rang at the same time on both ends of the phone.
Xiao Cheng: "......"
Xiao Wei: "......"
Another basin of cold water poured down.
Xiao Wei's little heart was so cold that his small voice was also stunned: "Sister-in-law is washing clothes."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment, and he asked the same question last night: "Have you washed up?"
Xiao Wei looked back, Bai Lu was drying clothes, and he hadn't come over yet: "No."
There was another long silence.
The sound of clothes dripping in the hallway ticked.
The whistles of the steamers sailing on the river are thick and long.
Bai Lu finished drying her clothes, put the laundry tub back in its place, put the bucket back in its place, and when she returned to the main house, Xiao Wei had already finished chatting with Xiao Cheng and was about to go out to call her.
When he saw her come in, he immediately gave her the earpiece.
Then, like last night, she sat at the table with a look of little resentment that was hard to ignore, her elbows propped up on the table, her chin in her two small hands, and her big eyes staring at her.
Bai Lu touched the little bald head, put the earpiece to his ear, and thought about it for a long time, but he didn't know what to say.
In fact, it's not that she doesn't know what to say, it's just that she suddenly looks a little forward and backward, and wants to say hello, which feels a little silly, and Xiao Wei has already said hello just now, and she doesn't know who is on the other side, and then repeating hello, it's a little inappropriate, and she wants to go straight to the point and say something important, but she has nothing important to say.
wanted to pronounce the name directly, Xiao Cheng responded last night, but the tone was ...... Not very satisfied.
Tangled and tangled, I don't know what to say.
There was silence.
"Lulu?"
A low and tactful Lulu crashed into the eardrums without warning.
After smashing all the foresight, Bai Lu's mind instantly brightened: "Well, I'm here!" Have you eaten? What are you doing? Xiaowei and I have already had dinner, dinner is stir-fried duck with fresh bamboo shoots, spicy fish, and spicy fried water spinach with millet, what did you have for dinner? โ
Oh my God...... What nonsense is this!
Bai Lu patted her forehead, feeling that her life had reached the peak of embarrassing conversations, and she could drill into the cracks.
Sure enough, the phone rang, and the man chuckled.
Subsequently, a long list of home-cooked dishes came to report, and even a few bowls of rice were reported.
Bai Lu was stared at by the strange gaze of the little guy behind her, and only felt that the quality of the phone was too good, and it didn't matter what she said just now, she didn't say anything just now.
After the low voice on the other end of the phone finished broadcasting the usual events, he asked, "Chen Chunli is here again?"
The tone of the voice is reduced from 100 degrees to 0 degrees.
Bai Lu was surprised how he knew, and looked back, the little bald head had lowered his head at some point.
Five short little fingers are picking at the table.
Bai Lu suddenly understood: "Chen Chunli just came to look for Chen Dafu, and went back if she didn't find it."
The man's voice on the other end of the phone was still cold and indifferent, and his tone was unquestionable: "Tomorrow at twelve o'clock at noon, you let Wang Hao come to the house, and I will tell him."
"No, no, I've already driven Chen Chunli away, it's still Wang Hao who came to pick up Chen Chunli, he was already outside the door when I opened the door, it's nothing, Chen Chunli still has a big belly, and she can't move." Bai Lu's tone and voice were all brisk, and he couldn't hear half of his anger.
Xiao Cheng called softly: "Lulu ......"
"Don't you believe I won't let myself suffer?" Bai Lu's silver bell-like laughter passed: "My patience is also limited, have you ever eaten chili?" Besides, there is still Xiaowei at home, who can make me suffer, Xiaowei can't beat it, and he will use a three-tooth nail rake to drive people away. โ
Xiao Cheng still wanted to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth with the word "I", he was interrupted by Bai Lu, who ate the bear's heart and leopard's gall: "Okay, okay, I know that you care about me, I don't mean to disobey you, what I want to express is that I really wasn't bullied by Chen Chunli, I drove her away."
According to Xiao Cheng's mind, Bai Lu, who has a gentle personality like water, will definitely not be able to do anything to drive people away in person.
This statement is clearly unconvincing.
But Bai Lu's voice is as crisp and pleasant as a lark, like the sound of a trickle when ice and snow melt, and the crisp laughter like a silver bell can dispel all people's anger.
Like a seal, the evil dragon that broke free from the shackles in Xiao Cheng's heart and was about to break out of the cage was sent back to the abyss.
The wind calmed down, the lighthouse illuminated the dark river, Xiao Cheng narrowed his eyes, and walked back to bed from the window.
There was a creaking sound of the bed, followed by a voice that had regained some temperature: "How did you rush?"
How could the big guy ask such a boring question.
Bai Lu suspected that he was drinking, "After a few unkind words, she left." โ
Xiao Cheng's interested "oh" sound came from the phone: "What are you welcome?"
"Did you drink?" Bai Lu made a preemptive strike, this state is too much like a three-year-old child.
Xiao Cheng was forced to change the topic by her, and he was slightly stunned for half a second before answering: "I didn't drink."
"Then you go to bed early, it's late."
Xiao Cheng: "......"
Bai Lu deliberately yawned lazily: "Isn't your ship going ashore tomorrow morning?" At that time, you must be very busy, go to bed early, in order to maintain enough sleep, mental and physical strength, and do everything with half the effort. โ
"Can't sleep."
Xiao Cheng lay in bed last night, keeping his eyes open until dawn, and it was useless to close them.
Back and forth is a smiling face.
Bai Lu felt that Xiao Cheng must have been drinking, otherwise he would not be able to say the straightforward words that only a three-year-old child would say.
The tone instantly changed back to the softness of coaxing the child: "Then do you want me to tell you a story?"
Xiao Cheng was slightly stunned, and immediately reacted and denied: "I didn't drink."
"Yes, yes, you didn't drink, and when you were drunk, you said you weren't drunk, so do you want to listen to my story?"
Xiao Cheng: "......"
"Say it."
"Then you promise me first, don't drink so much when you go out." Bai Lu made a request first.
Xiao Cheng wanted to say that he didn't drink, but he answered, "Hmm." โ
"That's good." Bai Lu's light and gentle laughter came: "Listen to me tell you a story, once upon a time there was a mountain, there was a temple on the mountain, and the old monk in the temple was telling stories to the little monk, and the story was about a mountain once upon a ......time."
