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

Chapter 8
Xiao Cheng's father became addicted to gambling and lost all his family fortune. The wonton shop sold out enough to pay off his debts. His mother left him and ran away. His father ignored him and ignored him.

Borrow money from relatives and friends, pay off the debt and continue to gamble.

Later, Xiao Cheng's father remarried.

The stepmother was not good to Xiao Cheng... He was often hungry and cold, and drove him out of the house several times in the snow and ice.

He nearly froze to death on the street.

After graduating from junior high school, his stepmother made it even more difficult for him to go to high school.

When Xiao Wei was four years old, his strident stepmother quarreled with his father and committed suicide by drinking pesticide in a fit of anger.

In the same year, my father was accidentally electrocuted and died on the way back from the casino on a thunderstorm night.

The sound of steady and even breathing came from beside her ears, Bai Lu returned from memory to reality, Xiao Cheng had already fallen asleep.

From her point of view, his strong nose bridge is three-dimensional like a peak, his long eyelashes cast a shadow on his eyelids, his thin lips are tightly closed, indifferent and unfeeling.

Forgot to turn off the lights.

Bai Lu looked at the dazzling orange light bulb on the wall, sighed helplessly, and stood up lightly.

Carefully step over the man and pull the rope to turn off the light.

It was okay when she went, but when she came back, just halfway through her feet, Xiao Cheng suddenly turned over and tripped her.

It fell directly on top of him.

There was a cool softness on the lips, followed by severe pain, as if... it hit the corner of his lips.

Xiao Cheng snorted, and opened his eyes. His scarlet eyes were like a fierce beast awakened from a deep sleep. There were flames under his eyes, and he stared at Bai Lu in front of him without blinking for a moment.

Bai Lu froze for a moment, jumped up in an instant, and rolled back to her small corner of the wall.

"It was you who turned over first and tripped me."

The family rules and etiquette asked her to apologize when she did something wrong, but they didn't make her take the blame, and she was determined not to take the blame.

Xiao Cheng didn't seem to have slowed down yet. Hearing her voice, his dilated pupils gradually became clear.

Get up and turn on the light.

Raising his hand to wipe the corners of his mouth, a touch of bright red lit his fingertips, his tone was not very kind: "The teeth are sharp and the mouth is sharp."

Only then did Bai Lu realize that the corner of his mouth was injured.

Under the dim light, the corner of the man's lips was cracked, and bright red blood dripped out. He pursed his lips, barely able to stop it for a while, and within a short while, his lips were stained red again.

If you don't look carefully, it's hard to find that there is another old mark beside the cracked corner of the mouth.

Fortunately, Bai Lu looked at it seriously and directly.

"What's your look like?"

Xiao Cheng glanced at her coldly.

Bai Lu immediately denied it: "I didn't think about it."

He firmly refused to admit that he thought of Widow Wang just now.

Xiao Cheng sneered, and said coldly with a hint: "She doesn't have the guts yet."

Bai Lu: "..." I ate the bear's heart and leopard's guts!

The wound on the corner of Xiao Cheng's mouth was actually the result of an accidental abrasion when he went to a casino in a neighboring city to collect bills two days ago, had a quarrel with the other party, and was unable to dodge during the fight.

After recovering the account, he also passed a message to those guys in the bureau, asking them to sweep up and make meritorious deeds.

The orders that the big boss has received recently are getting more and more marginal.

Although he is a mess, he knows what he can do and what he can't do. It's time to change careers.

Xiao Cheng's eyes inadvertently fell on Bai Lu's stomach, which made her shudder.

It was still cold, and she was wearing a thick sweater, which was a little loose. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't tell that her stomach was flat and flat. It didn't look like a five-month pregnant belly at all.

Bai Lu was not sure about provoking the IQ of the future business boss: "I'll get you some salt water to wipe it off."

A belly of 3 yuan!
She didn't dare to cross her body anymore, if something happened to her, where would she go to find a baby to be born.

Bai Lu lightly moved to the end of the bed like walking on thin ice, and walked to the kitchen in small steps.

I took a bowl from the cupboard and mixed some salt with well water. I had salt water, but I needed cotton swabs.

There must be no such luxury as cotton swabs at home, so Bai Lu grabbed a few toothpicks, went back to the room, put the bowl on the table, opened the drawer, and took out a handful of cotton.

Poke the toothpick to the side, from the outside to the inside, and slowly start to roll up.

Xiao Cheng looked at the busy little figure of the girl, and there was a ripple in his eyes, thoughtful.

He didn't take this little injury seriously before.

It will be fine in two days, and no one cares.

did not expect……

"I didn't do it on purpose." Bai Lu explained again, but this time her voice was much quieter than last time.

At first, she thought that it was only a little cracked, and after wiping off the congealed blood, she found that the wound was quite large, and the cracked red flesh in the lip could be clearly seen.

Xiao Cheng could feel the corners of his mouth being wiped carefully, Bai Lu was sitting on the edge of the bed, her small face was close at hand, her hand holding a homemade cotton swab was slender and fair.

Those clean and pure eyes were half covered by curly and thick eyelashes, and they didn't dare to look up at him.

Xiao Cheng pursed his lips and said in a low voice, "Yes."

Bai Lu originally thought that when the truth came out, it would be better for Xiao Cheng to think of her a little bit, so don't click on her.

Now I'm afraid that even the meritorious service can't atone for it.

After finishing everything and tidying up her things, she could finally go to bed. This time, Bai Lu didn't toss and turn, lying on the bed, and soon fell asleep.

Xiao Cheng couldn't fall asleep.

His eyes turned from the side of the girl's sleeping face to upwards, where there was a light that was slowly falling.

There is a transparent tile on the roof, and you can directly see the sky. In the past, there was endless darkness, but today there is a bright and bright star, which is particularly dazzling.

In the darkness, light up the dawn.

—

The next morning, when Bai Lu woke up, there was no one around, and the quilt was neatly folded at the end of the bed.

Bai Lu got up, stretched her waist, and habitually folded the quilt into tofu cubes, flat and flat.

It was only when my hand touched the mosquito net that I remembered that this is the 90s, and she is no longer in the 21st century.

In fact, she can do her own way.

Just like Xiao Cheng, just fold them neatly at will.

She did it as soon as she thought of it, threw off the quilt, folded it again and again, and finally made the quilt into the random and tidy appearance that she had thought about for a long time, but never did.

Xiao Cheng just watched her shake the quilt for a long time outside the window.

Still shaking and giggling.

Bai Lu didn't know it at all, until she came to the kitchen and saw the bowl of hot noodles on the table.

There is also a poached egg on top, which is steaming, and it looks like it has just been out of the pan.

Xiao Wei has already gone to school, and Xiao Cheng is not here, who cooked the noodles?

Bai Lu rolled her eyes, and scanned the front and back yards a few times, except for the old hen in the back yard, which clucked to announce the good news after laying eggs, there was no one in sight.

Maybe it was because when Xiao Cheng was making breakfast, he also made her a portion by the way, and went out after eating.

Without thinking about it, Bai Lu picked up the enamel washbasin, towel, mouthwash cup, toothbrush and toothpaste, went to the pressure well in the yard to press water, brushed her teeth and washed her face.

Have breakfast after washing.

After eating, go to the backyard to pick up eggs.

There is no imaginary chicken coop in the backyard. A circle of bamboo is inserted into the ground to form an oblong chicken pen.

There is a straw nest in the corner of the chicken coop, covered with a straw hut, which is protected from rain, and there is a big egg in the nest.
