Krypton gold longevity: a hundred years of life at the beginning

Chapter 7 Sister-in-law becomes sister, Cheng Xinchui

in the afternoon.

"Uncle Wu, I'll leave first. Thank you for your hard work!"

"Okay, let's go and say hello to me."

"Got it."

...

After leaving the county government, Zhang Hua did not go directly to Li Ying's house. After all, he had not been there for such a long time and he must bring some gifts this time.

First go to the drug store, the Huichun Hall where he used to be an apprentice.

The predecessor was smarter. Although he left the drug store, he maintained a good relationship with the boss and several clerks. After all, he entered the drug store based on his connections at that time, and no one dared to embarrass him openly.

Polygonatum odoratum, lily, adenophora, yam, lotus seeds with skin, cinnamon balls, and some red dates and wolfberries... After grabbing the medicine, I exchanged a few words with the people at the drug store before leaving.

Next stop, the food market.

Well, it's not really a regular market, it's just the busiest street, selling everything on both sides.

Towards evening, after buying all the things, Zhang Hua finally arrived at his destination...Li Zhai.

These two words are probably Brother Li’s last bit of dignity!

After muttering something in his mind, Zhang Hua stepped forward and knocked on the door.

"Who is it!"

A female voice sounded. Her voice was very soft, but it felt like she was talking to you very close to you.

I just think of the owner of this voice!
Zhang Hua's heart immediately tightened slightly, and he quickly replied loudly: "Sister, it's me, Xiaohua."

As for why you call me sister instead of sister-in-law?
In the words of Brother Li, we all call him his own name. Anyway, when we are at home, Zhang Hua calls him brother-in-law... This is one of the reasons why he doesn't come often. If it goes smoothly, both of them will be in trouble. He has to undergo magic baptism, and Brother Li has to endure physical damage.

squeak~
The courtyard door opened from the inside. Why is there no one there?

"uncle."

I looked down and saw that it was this little guy, okay!He is only five years old and can open the door!Zhang Hua couldn't help but raise his hand and gesture...

"Uncle, the door is unlocked."

Seeing the old turtle dangling in front of his eyes, the child rolled his eyes and explained, and then whispered, "Mom doesn't seem very happy. Be careful, otherwise my father will be even more unlucky."

The child is Li Ying's son. His name is Li Zhi, and his nickname is Xiao Doi. He is a very funny little kid.

"Little one, did you say something bad about my mother?"

The voice was still soft, but the content did not feel very friendly. Zhang Hua and Li Zhi shrank their heads together after hearing this, then entered the door, closed the door, and quickly walked into the house.

Actually, there is no need to be so afraid of Zhang Hua. This sister may be... a bit violent towards other people, but she is definitely very protective of him. In her previous life, it would not be an exaggeration to call her a brother-supporting demon. Fortunately, her previous life was not so bad. Live up to expectations.

There is no way, who made him look like this sister's brother who died young!For such a stupid reason, my predecessor could only enter a medicine shop, practice martial arts, and become a police officer after escaping from the village. The person in charge was Li...brother-in-law, but the main messenger behind him was this sister.

But it was because of this gratitude and the fact that the sister was so majestic at home that Zhang Hua was infected, fearing that he had done something wrong and made the sister unhappy.

After arriving at the door of the main room, Zhang Hua paused and began to slow down. He just wanted to tidy up his clothes, but seeing that he had an old hen in one hand and an old turtle in the other, and there were pastries, medicinal materials and shredded tobacco in his arms... he decided to forget it.

"Sister, I'm here."

After entering the door, I walked through the bright room. As soon as I entered the second room, I saw a woman sitting sideways on an arm chair.

Just from the side view, this woman has a slender figure and a pretty face. Although she is not extremely beautiful, she is also round and round, no worse than those ladies from wealthy families.

However, although the woman has a good temperament and face, as long as she is familiar with her, she basically does not dare to look at her... because this woman is just like her name, domineering and revealing.

Cheng Xinchui... This is the woman's name, Xinchui. The weapons she uses for martial arts training are double hammers, and her fists are like two small steel hammers. She is truly born with divine power.

It's a pity that this divine power actually appeared on a woman.

After Zhang Hua shouted, he followed the sister and looked to the other side. Brother-in-law Li... was riding a horse.

With a bowl of water above his head and a stick of incense burning under his head, these are all small problems. Zhang Hua, a ninth-level warrior, can stand for two or three hours.

But the scary thing is that Li Ying's hands stretched out in front of him are flipping through a thick "Martial Law", and he may have to write silently... There is a book board and a small table in front of him, with pen, ink, paper and inkstones ready.

No wonder Li Ying knew everything about the laws when he was handling the case. That's it.

Zhang Hua couldn't help but marvel when he saw this. His sister was indeed a good housekeeper.

"Here you are, why don't you forget that I am your sister because I didn't let your brother-in-law take the message?"

After speaking with some reproach, Cheng Xinchui turned around and saw that Zhang Hua was still holding something. He frowned slightly and said, "Why did you bring something here? Xiaohua, you just went to work. Don't be so lavish with money. You are here this year." I am already sixteen, and I will start a family in a while, so I need to know how to live a good life..."

Start a family...I'm only sixteen!Still a child!

Zhang Hua, who felt a little weird in his heart, quickly shook the things in his hands and explained: "Sister, didn't I just get my salary? I also got a reward today. It just so happens that I have a nourishing medicinal diet recipe that I want to give you. repair."

"Well, I finally know that I feel sorry for your sister, which is good."

Hearing that Cheng Xinchui was thinking about making nourishing medicinal food for himself just after receiving the money, the unhappiness on Cheng Xinchui's face immediately dissipated. Then, he slowly stood up and walked over. After looking at Zhang Hua, he said:

"Well, I have grown taller again. I will make two more clothes for you in the past few days. You said that your stubborn temper made you come to live with me. What happened? You live alone, and you don't even know how to feel hot or cold. None... Hey, forget it, besides, you just think your sister is nagging me. It will be fine when you get married in a few days.

Also, I won’t talk about you this time. Don’t buy these things next time. If you need anything, just tell your sister and ask your brother-in-law to buy it for you. Okay, give me the things and I will take them. To Xinlan. "

Listening to Cheng Xinchui's rambling words, Zhang Hua was not bored at all, but was very kind. It had been a long time since anyone cared about him so much. For a while, the strangeness caused by time travel also disappeared.

However, when Cheng Xinchui reached out to pick up the thing, Zhang Hua quickly avoided it, and then said with a smile: "Sister, this is medicinal food, I'd better make it myself. You wait here, I'll go to the kitchen to prepare it first." The medicinal food is cooked and will be served just in time for dinner."

"Well, that's fine."

Seeing what Zhang Hua said, Cheng Xinchui stopped insisting. After all, Zhang Hua, who had worked in a drug store, understood this better, but...

Cheng Xintui turned to look at Li Ying aside, frowning slightly and said, "Husband, please stop reading now and help Xiaohua take things to the kitchen."

"Hey, here we come."

Li Ying became happy when he heard that. He closed the book, put down the bowl, stood up, took the chicken and old turtle from Zhang Hua's hand, and walked to the kitchen. When he got to the door, he didn't forget to say: "Madam, please help me collect the book first." Come on, my husband has to study at night, don’t mess it up!"

"Well, the concubine knows."

Zhang Hua: "..."

Why does Li Ying always like to compose so much!

No...it seems like both of them are a bit pretentious.

"Sister, I'll go over first. You can help my brother-in-law get a test paper first."

Zhang Hua didn't stay long, just mentioned it casually and walked to the kitchen.

Passing by the main hall, Zhang Hua took out the medicinal materials and went to the kitchen after throwing the pastry in his arms to the little one.

"Brother Xiaohua, you are here."

As soon as he entered the kitchen, he saw a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl busy at the table. When greeting Zhang Hua, she didn't stop holding the kitchen knife in her hand, and the potato shreds were taking shape.

Potatoes... yes, there are potatoes in this world. Perhaps because of this, the land annexation in this world was not that serious. Some disturbances were quickly suppressed when the empress ascended the throne.

This girl's name is Xinlan, her full name is Cheng Xinlan, Cheng Xinchui's biological sister.

But compared to her elder sister, Xinlan is more likeable. Not only is she very beautiful, but she also has a gentle personality. She always has a sweet smile on her face, especially her eyes that are slightly squinted when she smiles. Looks particularly cute.

Moreover, Xinlan had amazing cooking skills at such a young age. If Cheng Xinchui hadn't been there to watch over her at home, the police officer from the yamen might have come over every day to eat and drink.

It was because of this girl that Chief Cao was punched by Li Ying today.

...

"Xinlan, where is my brother-in-law!"

Putting down the medicine bag, Zhang Hua asked casually when he saw that Li Ying, who was one step ahead of him, was not in the kitchen.

"Brother-in-law went to the well to clean the medicine jars and said he wanted to make medicinal meals for you."

After Xinlan explained, she whispered, "Brother Xiaohua, what kind of medicinal diet are you making? Why don't you wrap up the medicine and I'll do it."

"No, I'll do it myself."

After refusing a word, Zhang Hua was afraid that Xinlan would misunderstand, "It's just for nourishing, not some expensive prescription. I'll write down some prescriptions for you later. You, sister and brother-in-law are all practicing martial arts. , medicated food is relatively mild and not so resistant, so it’s okay to eat more.”

Well, Xinlan also practices martial arts, but Zhang Hua has only heard of it but never seen it, and no one in the yamen has reported it. This is understandable. After all, the girl is still young and usually won't go out of the backyard. Zhang Hua can enter the backyard. , but he hasn’t been here a few times throughout the year, so he doesn’t know how well this girl is practicing.

"No, no need, Brother Xiaohua."

When she heard that Zhang Hua wanted to write down some prescriptions, Xinlan quickly refused, "Prescriptions are so precious, they can be passed on to the family, I can't take them."

"Hey, it's not as valuable as you think."

He wanted to say a few more words, but seeing Xinlan's serious look, Zhang Hua could only surrender and said, "Okay, then I'll come over and do it for you when I have time."

"Well, that's troublesome, Brother Xiaohua."

After hearing what Zhang Hua said, Xinlan's sullen face relaxed. Then she looked at the medicine bag on the case, thought about it, and said, "Brother Xiaohua, please wait a moment. Come and kill again later, and you’ll be back soon.”

What are you doing!
Seeing Xinlan running out mid-sentence, Zhang Hua was a little curious, why he hadn't seen this girl so arrogant before.

Forget it, let’s do the work first. Seeing that it was getting dark outside, Zhang Hua didn’t think about it any more. He took out the medicinal materials, wrapped them again, soaked them in water, boiled water in the pot, and then killed chickens and turtles...

It was different when he had martial arts. Less than 10 minutes later, when Xinlan returned to the kitchen, the old hen was already blanching in the pot.

"Brother Xiaohua, didn't I tell you to wait? How can a grown man like you do this?"

Seeing that Zhang Hua was almost busy, Xinlan murmured unhappily, then stuffed the small cloth bag in Zhang Hua's hand and whispered, "Brother Xiaohua, this is what I saved in my private room." Money, don’t get me wrong, I know you just became a police officer, it’s nothing...these medicines are certainly not cheap, you...just take them and use them first, tell me when you are done with them, and I will ask my sister for some more."

It's money!
No wonder it’s so weighty!
I estimated the weight in my hand, it was about 30 taels, but I didn't expect Xinlan to be a little rich woman!
But why did Zhang Hua always feel a little weird when he took the money.
