Nine Zero, the cannon fodder wife of the paranoid boss is reborn

Chapter 44 Sleeping...

Xiao Cheng didn't feel the pain in his neck, but the trembling and curled up body in his arms, and Bai Lu's weak and fragile voice made his heart stop for a while.

"Shall we go to the health center?"

"No..." The girl in her arms shook her head, weakly and vigorously, obviously resisting going to the hospital.

Also said: "I want to drink hot water..."

Xiao Cheng didn't think drinking hot water would be of any use at such a time, he picked her up and got off the bed and was about to go outside.

But Bai Lu refused, she wobbled to get down, pushed him away, didn't want him to hold her, if she couldn't push him away, she grabbed his arm and pinched him: "I want to drink water, drink water."

"Drink hot water."

I can't even get angry.

There was no pain in the pinched arm.

Xiao Cheng wanted to take Bai Lu directly to the hospital, but she resisted too much, besides clutching her stomach and complaining of discomfort, frowning, biting him, shrinking into his arms, pushing him and pinching him, there was no bigger and more painful symptom. reaction.

The little face buried in his neck was still warm, not pale and bloodless, and his forehead was also normal temperature.

It shouldn't be very serious.

She said, drink some hot water, you can try it.

After calming down, Xiao Cheng gently put Bai Lu back on the bed, covered the quilt, poured a cup of boiling water from the thermos bottle on the table, separated the two cups and shook them left and right.

After shaking until the water was not so hot, I took it back to the bed, helped Bailu up, and fed her to drink.

Bai Lu frowned, opened her eyes, and her weak eyes fell on the cup: "What is this..."

Xiao Cheng took it away and blew on it, then handed it to her lips, "Hot water."

"Why is there no sugar?" Bai Lu refused to drink.

Xiao Cheng went to the drawer to get a piece of maltose and came back, put it in the cup in front of her, and shook it for a while.

Tell her: "There's sugar."

Bai Lu still frowned, didn't drink, and buried her face in his neck: "It hasn't melted, it's not sweet..."

Xiao Cheng didn't say anything, put her back on the bed, covered her with the quilt, poured another cup of boiling water, brought back two maltose, and put it in front of her.

Gently shake and melt: "Two maltose."

Bai Lu bit her lower lip, and a faint voice escaped from her lips: "It's hot."

Xiao Cheng: "..."

He went to shake the two cups again.

Running around, my body is hot.

He simply took off his coat and shoes, folded his quilt and put it at the end of the bed, then returned to the bed, helped Bai Lu up, and fed her moderately warm maltose water.

Bai Lu didn't refuse again this time, she leaned into his arms, obediently drank hot sugar water, taking small sips.

Just halfway through the drink, she shrank her body and hugged his waist with trembling hands: "It's cold..."

Xiao Cheng pulled up the quilt to cover the two of them.

Bai Lu continued to drink the sugar water, very slowly.

After taking a sip, I touched my stomach, as if to confirm whether the sugar water fell into my stomach.

Drink it until the moon is in the middle of the sky before finishing it.

Xiao Cheng rubbed her slightly swollen belly, and asked in a low voice, "Is it better?"

Bai Lu had already closed her eyes, her frown was loosened, and she didn't cry anymore.

"Want sleep……"

Hands still around his waist.

Xiao Cheng glanced at the sky outside, his eyes narrowed slightly, as if hesitating, the strength on his waist suddenly increased, and the girl's soft and warm lips were printed on his neck.

It's not a bite, but it's like an electric current jumps up to the nerve endings, and the scorching heat spreads to the limbs and bones in an instant.

Put temperature on each nerve cell.

Xiao Cheng lowered his eyes, looking from top to bottom, he saw the side face of Bai Lu sleeping peacefully against his neck, and his soft breathing gently swept over his neck, warming his bones.

He put the cup on the small wooden cabinet beside the bed.

He stretched out his hand to pull the rope, turned off the light, and hugged her to sleep.

……

The five old men outside the wall squatted on the ground, playing poker with their eyelids open, and fried golden flowers.

"Sixteen, can Brother Cheng come out tonight?" Wang Hao kept yawning.

"What time is it now, is it twelve o'clock? I just heard the clock in Brother Cheng's house strike twelve, and all the stray dogs on the side of the road are asleep."

The brother squatting next to Xiao Dazhuang was also yawning, his eyes staring at the cards in his hand like mosquito coils.

Luo Shiliu threw out a pair of king bombs, took down the flickering cigarette from his mouth, and pressed it to the ground.

He got up and looked at the main house in the yard.

Looking back at the four brothers who were waiting for an answer, they opened their mouths to give the big news: "The lights are off."

"The lights are off!!!"

"Brother Cheng is asleep???"

Wang Hao: "..."

Xiao Dazhuang: "..."

The other two brothers: "..."

"Go home, wash and sleep." Luo Shiliu wiped his face, shrugged, and left first.

Xiao Dazhuang followed closely behind: "Brother Cheng, why did you fall asleep? Didn't you agree to make a big deal tonight?"

Wang Hao also came over: "It's too slow to get money to build a house, it's better to collect the bill a hundred times faster."

The two brothers were holding a sack of guys, confused: "So are we going to postpone it, or not?"

They had been with Xiao Cheng for a while before, but they got into trouble and were expelled from the gang.

They don't know whether other people's bosses are capable or not. Xiao Cheng's ability is definitely obvious to all in the gang. No matter what they do, they will not let them do it for nothing.

Luo Shiliu smacked his mouth: "We'll know if we start work tomorrow."

Xiao Dazhuang scratched his head, and came up with a terrible thought: "Brother Cheng, you won't quit. My sister-in-law recently made money selling fried chestnuts with sugar, which is enough to support the family."

"Who told you?" Luo Shiliu knew that he didn't have such a brain, and he couldn't think so far.

Xiao Dazhuang said bluntly: "Yesterday Chen Chunli went to my mother's shoe stall to mend shoes. She talked with my mother and said that she also wanted to make sugar-fried chestnuts, but she couldn't buy good sugar."

All of a sudden, four sets of gazes were aimed at Wang Hao at the same time.

Wang Hao's face became dry all of a sudden.

Ever since Chen Chunli knew that Aunt Wu's sugar-fried chestnuts were supplied by Bai Lu, she asked him to talk to her all day long.

He also said that Xiao Cheng was selfish and only cared about making a lot of money for himself, and let their brothers move bricks and make small money.

Said that Bai Lu has a good way, but she doesn't know how to take care of her own people, and doesn't cooperate with her own people, but wants to cooperate with a country bumpkin, bumpkin who moved up from the countryside.

Saying that Xiao Cheng and Bai Lu made money, they looked down on their brothers, and didn't even care about their life or death.

All day long, he pestered him to come to Bai Lu, and asked Bai Lu to teach her how to make sugar-fried chestnuts, saying that everyone is a brother and sister-in-law, and everyone should earn money together if they have money.

Luo Shiliu smiled inexplicably, "The chestnut tree hasn't bloomed yet, so there are chestnuts in your house?"

There are quite a few people in the town who have front and back yards, and there are quite a few people who used to plant chestnut trees in the back or front yards, but there are only a handful of people who keep chestnut trees uncut.

The few of them didn't bother to chop because they saw that Xiao Cheng didn't chop. They didn't expect Chestnut to turn around one day.

Therefore, everyone did not save chestnuts, except that the stewed chicken was boiled, and they were too lazy to pick it up on the ground.

Xiao Dazhuang remembered it even more clearly: "It was your mother's birthday at the beginning of the year, and you asked us to go to your house for dinner. Chen Chunli also said that chestnuts are too unpalatable, and you wouldn't save them if you were killed. Why do you still want to make sugar-fried chestnuts now?"
