Chapter 240

Stay for a meal before leaving?
Baoyu is still waiting at the city gate. If she doesn't leave the city on time, he will definitely be worried.

Zhou Chenyu looked troubled and simply confessed the reason to Li Jiao.

Li Jiao knew that she was in trouble, and since she was in the wrong, she didn't force it. The two had a brief meeting. Zhou Chenyu took the medicine to treat frostbite, glanced at Uncle Zhang before leaving, and then returned.

At sunset on Youshi, she and Yang Xi walked side by side along the main street, following the flow of people leaving the city to the city gate.

She saw Baoyu's silly boy waving towards her from a distance, smiled, looked away, looked up at the man in front of her, and asked, "Then shall I go back first?"

Yang Xi saw Baoyu waiting there and raised the corners of his lips: "Well, be careful on the road."

Zhou Chenyu stared at his reaction, pursed his lips, and hummed vaguely, but still stayed where he was. He stepped forward with some reluctance and asked him seductively: "I'm leaving. You are so busy, this time Farewell, I don’t know how long it will take to see you again. Just say be careful on the road, and then... it’s gone? "

She made her words clear and looked expectantly at his next reaction.

"This?" Yang Xi stood in the wind and met her lingering gaze. His black pupils moved slightly and scanned the pedestrians passing by on both sides.

People were coming and going at the gate of the city, and passers-by occasionally cast a few glances at me.

He secretly clenched his hands, but suppressed his emotions. He only lowered his eyes, looked at her hands, and said in a very gentle tone: "Then remember to apply the medicine on time, and don't let it get wet."

and then?
It's gone?
Zhou Chenyu saw the restraint on his face. At this moment, his expression was righteous and awe-inspiring, without any lust between men and women. It was as if he was doing a routine thing, not at all like the one at the lakeside just now.

Just because there are fewer people by the lake, there are more people here?

Is it so difficult to get close to him?

Shen Yunzhi is right, he is just a blockhead and his brain is not clear.

Zhou Chenyu snorted dully, "Then I'm leaving." He turned around with the medicine and walked towards Baoyu resolutely.

"Shen..." Yang Xi looked at her and turned around in displeasure, then stepped out with one foot. It could be seen that she left without looking back. She stopped with a look of despair, her eyes closely following her back, and her whole person was confused. He stood at the gate downstairs, like a stone watching his wife, watching her walk away.

Baoyu watched the whole process and came up to him, "Sister, I've seen you a long time ago. The guy in blue next to you is my brother-in-law, right? What are you whispering when you stay with my brother-in-law?"

Whisper?

Zhou Chenyu turned around and looked at the blue figure who had not left downstairs at the city gate. The suffocation just now was gradually blown away by the cold wind, and he showed a satisfied smile. He had the strength to confront Baoyu again: "Children, don't pry about adults' affairs. "

"Me!" Baoyu choked, picked up the weeds picked up by the roadside, and muttered dissatisfied: "If you don't say it, don't say it. Why do you call me a child? Sister, I am not a child anymore."

"Hey, let's see if you can get it?" Zhou Chenyu looked at him, full of doubt.

In the winter, Baoyu raised his arms, opened his sleeves, and exposed most of his arms. "Sister, look at me, my flesh is strong. I will let you rely on me from now on, brother."

"I don't want to rely on you."

Zhou Chenyu sneered, waving her hands, pacing slowly, looking at the sunset over the distant mountains at the end of the road, and said a plan she had been thinking about for a long time:
"Baoyu, what do you think if I open a shop in partnership with others?" Open a shop and do business on my own?

Baoyu's eyes lit up, "Sister, is this what you and Chen Ping'an have been thinking about selling rouge and gouache in the past few days?"

"Yes." Zhou Chenyu nodded, "So far, the business is pretty good and the profits are high. He and I have only been working for four or five days, and we have earned twenty taels of silver." She gestured.

"Two taels of silver? That's so much?" Baoyu exclaimed excitedly, as if his eyes were open at the sight of money. After exclaiming, he came back to his senses, looked nervously at the pedestrians nearby, suppressed his excitement, and whispered: "Sister, you can earn so much money by selling rouge, and you can definitely earn more by opening a rouge shop. I support it with both hands."

Zhou Chenyu looked at his excitement, touched his chin, frowned and sighed, "You can just let it go? How can everything be so absolute? Is Chen Ping'an willing to cooperate with me? Definitely. Secondly, to open a store, the store needs to be rented, things need to be repurchased, and everything needs to be taken care of. This is a big expense. There is another issue that worries me the most. If we invest so much money in the early stage, what if What should I do if I can’t make any money and lose all my money?”

You should invest at least six or seventy taels of silver.

But after investing so much money, they lost all their money, and they were back before liberation.

The risk is very high.

Baoyu looked at his sister's frown and straightened her chest, "Sister, when spring comes next year, I will immediately go hunting in the mountains to raise money for you. I'll see if I can take away the nests of those white foxes! "

Zhou Chenyu had this plan, but he didn't necessarily have to do it, he just wanted to plan it.

But seeing Baoyu preparing to sacrifice herself to keep her store open, she slapped him on the head in a funny way and said, "Thank you so much. Leave a way for the white fox to survive."

The two siblings followed the sunset and returned home.

As soon as she entered the house, Li Xiuju immediately noticed her hands, "Ah, why are their hands swollen like this? Are they frozen? But are they suffering from frostbite?"

Zhou Chenyu glanced at it with a smile on his face, "Old lady, it's okay. I went to see Dr. Shen and applied the medicine." After saying that, he immediately showed her the two boxes of ointment he brought back to reassure her. .

"That's good." Li Xiuju breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhou Chenyu smelled the aroma coming from the kitchen, where late autumn was frying vegetables, "What are you going to eat tonight?"

Hearing the sound, Wan Qiu raised his head with a smile, his face reflecting the red light of the stove, "Sister, are you back?" After saying that, he quickly opened the pot lid and said, "I'm making spicy fried duck gizzards and bamboo shoots now. I want to try it. ?"

Zhou Chenyu watched her condition getting better and better, walked in with a smile, stretched his head, and opened his mouth, "Ah."

Wan Qiu smiled and scooped up a piece of fried and shiny fresh bamboo shoots, "Here."

Zhou Chenyu bit into the bamboo shoot slices, and the aroma rushed into his nose. It was slightly spicy, but the taste was very crisp and tender. He couldn't help but nodded: "Yeah, it's delicious. I can have more rice tonight."

Wan Qiu smiled, and Li Xiuju stood behind, nodding happily, "Don't worry, you can eat it soon."

"Okay." Zhou Chenyu put the medicine back in the room, used hot water to remove the things on his face, and quickly dried his hands. After a while, the food in the kitchen was fried.

Tonight, the four of us had two dishes and one soup, a spicy stir-fried duck gizzard with fresh bamboo shoots, a stir-fried pickled mustard greens, and a pot of stewed lotus root soup with pork bones, all delicious and delicious.
