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

Chapter 67 She Is Warm
Under the gloomy sky, Bai Lu's eyebrows and eyes are slightly curved, a few strands of hair on her temples are blown by the wind, her clear eyes are as bright as a meter of sunshine, and she has a warm smile. She even wears a big straw hat that blocks the wind. , to stabilize the temperature of falling into the abyss.

The clouds broke and the sky cleared.

Pale golden sunlight sprinkled the earth, and sprinkled on Bai Lu's body, fingertips, clothes, and hair were all haloed.

Xiao Cheng's dark eyes were lit up, and a pair of candles in his hands lit up with red flames, which flickered out. No matter how raging the cold wind was, it could not shake the accompanying fire.

Holding the newly lit incense, Xiao Wei stared at Bai Lu standing in the sun, and was stunned for a while.

It wasn't until a pair of candles were greeted in front of the grave that he came back to his senses and put the incense in his hand in front of the grave.

Bai Lu also offered incense, and no one said a word, and finished sweeping the tombs in silence.

Finally, there is Xiao Wei's mother's tomb.

After clearing the weeds, light the incense candles...

Xiao Cheng did not leave immediately as in previous years, but turned around and walked outside the grave, stopping.

In front of the grave, Bai Lu touched the top of the little guy's head, and with gentle force fell on his slightly trembling shoulders, bringing him to her side.

Xiao Wei leaned against his warm waist surrounded by the sun, hot water drops fell silently from his eye sockets.

The clothes around Bai Lu's waist were soaked, but she didn't take half a step back, and patted the little guy's back with her palm.

In previous years, people would come to this tomb after offering incense, and no one offered condolences in front of the tomb.

If Xiao Wei dared to cry, Xiao Cheng would turn around and leave without waiting half a second longer.

It will not be like today, even if you still have a cold face, you will always stay outside the grave.

Even a small choked voice came from the grave: "...I bought new clothes..." "Mom..." "Brother and sister-in-law are very kind to me..." and other words, they didn't leave first.

……

It was already noon when he got home, and Xiao Cheng bought cooked food when he passed by the town street, and he could cook when he got home.

After dinner.

Bai Lu took a small bench and a pair of pliers, and sat by the well in the yard, cutting the snail tails.

Xiao Wei looked at it for a while, and then brought a pair of pliers, imitating the example to cut the tail of the screw.

Tomorrow he was going to the countryside to buy chestnuts, so Xiao Cheng went to buy rice. Of course, he didn't buy it from Li Shuixian, but drove a brick cart to the rice processing factory outside the town.

The factory owner not only gave Xiao Cheng the lowest price in the market, but also invited him to drink tea, and the two chatted happily.

Knowing that Xiao Cheng is not working under the big boss, Boss Mi half-jokingly and half-seriously asked Xiao Cheng to come to the factory as a manager, the job is easy and the money is paid.

To put it bluntly, it is because of Xiao Cheng's notoriety for his cruel actions in the past, and use him to frighten the people below.

In addition, when the partners who supply and sell rice abroad cannot pay back the payment, Xiao Cheng is asked to collect it.

There is not much money, and there are many things to do. In the end, I still go back to my old job and live on the cusp of the storm.

Xiao Cheng didn't know what he was thinking, and he just dealt with it in a few words on the grounds that he was building a house.

I mentioned a few words about the changing prices in the city.

Boss Mi immediately chatted with him again.

There are a lot of rice fields outside the town, not too far from the countryside. Boss Mi’s rice processing factory is here, and it can be said to be smooth sailing. After the rice is harvested, the husks will be shed, and the husks will be sold to the city after husks. .

There is no end to the conversation...

Bai Lu and Xiao Wei cut about three or four catties of snails, and there were still a lot in the basin, which they couldn't finish eating at once.

"How long will it take for them to die?" Xiao Wei stared at the little things in the basin and asked very straightforwardly.

"Without mud, they will die in two or three days."

Bai Lu pursed her lips: "There are no snails for sale on the street. Families who moved up from the countryside must have eaten fried snails, but they can be sold on the street, but we don't have a lot of them, so we can't make much money. We might as well eat them ourselves." , not only can fill the stomach, but also won't waste."

Xiao Wei suspected that she wanted to keep it for himself.

"Yes!" Bai Lu's eyes lit up: "Let's raise the snails, and we can eat them whenever we want and as much as we want."

Xiao Wei: "..."

"How?"

"Isn't there a small river in the vegetable garden in the backyard? We poured the snails into the river. In the upstream and downstream of the small river, we nailed bamboos and kept them in captivity at a distance, allowing them to grow freely. When they grow enough, they are caught and fried."

Bai Lu seemed to have seen that the fried snails in the whole river were beckoning to her, telling her to throw the pot away.

"Xiaowei, help me get all the snails into the dustpan, and I'll send them to the oil...down the river!"

The small river in the vegetable garden is the water flowing from the branch of the big river outside the town, and there is no industrial pollution for the time being.

The water quality of the river in the countryside and the small river in the backyard looks similar, both are clear, and should be able to feed.

With excited small steps, Bai Lu quickly put the cut snails back into the kitchen, returning the pliers to their original places.

Xiao Wei took a big dustpan and a small dustpan, and took out all the snails in the basin to drain.

After fishing, Bai Lu and Bai Lu shared a dustpan, and moved all the remaining snails to the small river in the backyard.

After the sound of "dong dong dong" the water finished, the two of them remembered that there seemed to be no bamboo in the house.

Bai Lu raised her head and took aim at the big chestnut tree... branches, thick and big branches surrounding the vegetable garden.

However, the chestnut tree has already started to bloom, and it will bloom next month at the latest. After the flowers bloom, in a few months, all the trees will be full of golden tickets.

Can't chop.

And if you cut it at this time, the tree seems to be injured.

The firewood used for the fire in the kitchen is all short, and it is not half way into the river, and the snails can escape.

Bai Lu was racking her brains to find a way, when a small voice suddenly sounded beside her: "Wang Cuihua has bamboo at home."

"Two days before the Ching Ming Festival, I saw Brother Da Zhuang help her back with a wooden cart. There is a bamboo forest by the river, and there are many dried bamboos in the bamboo forest. Wang Cuihua will go there to chop dry bamboo and come back to make a fire." Xiao Wei [-] Explanation.

Just as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.

As soon as the door opened, it was Cao Cao.

Both Bai Lu and Xiao Wei were taken aback, what a coincidence!
"Bai Lu, brother Xiao Cheng... is brother Xiao Cheng at home?" Wang Cuihua was covered in ashes, with a lot of black dust on her face, as if she had just crawled out of a stove.

Wang Cuihua called Xiao Cheng's elder brother once when he was offering sacrifices to his ancestors in the countryside. It happened to be heard by the little girls, and they complained about it for a long time in front of her.

She vomited so much that she had to change back to Brother Xiao Cheng.

"What's wrong with you?" Bai Lu was concerned about the safety of the big bamboo family.

"The chimney seems to be broken."

Wang Cuihua looked aggrieved and pitiful: "I was going to boil water to wash my hair, but suddenly there was a rumbling sound from the roof, and a lot of chimney pieces fell down. All the ashes were poured out..."

Only after hearing this did Bai Lu see that Wang Cuihua's lips were a little red and swollen, probably from being scalded by the sparks.

A handful of bangs on his forehead were also burnt into curly hair.
