Chapter 25 Baked Potatoes

Bai Meixi didn't know how to take over, and always felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward.Some feelings come too fast, and it takes time to get used to them.For her, a love novice, injecting so much sweetness into her life at once may cause some indigestion, and she has to learn to accept it slowly.

Unexpectedly, this Cheng Haiyi looked cold, but when he talked about love, he was so sweet that he went straight to people's hearts.

Bai Meixi looked at the time and it was not too early, it was winter now, and it got dark earlier.Cheng Haiyi took such care of her, Bai Meixi was very grateful in her heart, she didn't know how to thank Cheng Haiyi, after thinking about it, she smiled at him and said: "Comrade Cheng, you have helped me for so long, I ask you Let's have dinner with Director Wu!"

Cheng Haiyi frowned slightly, she had more than four yuan on her right now, which was an advance salary, how could he be willing to spend Bai Meixi's money, and make her life more difficult in the future?
"Okay!" Cheng Haiyi nodded and said to Bai Meixi.

Bai Meixi felt a little more relaxed, and said to Cheng Haiyi: "Then what do you want to eat?"

Cheng Haiyi tilted his head and thought for a long time, and finally said thoughtfully: "Well... how about baked potatoes?"

"Baked potatoes?" Bai Meixi was a little surprised, where can I get baked potatoes?What's more, there are no baked potatoes in the cafeteria of this factory!

Cheng Haiyi smiled, and took out four potatoes from his military satchel. These four potatoes were bought when he went to the supply and marketing agency to buy these supplies for Bai Meixi.As a soldier, he has a strict schedule of work and rest, and he roughly calculates, and knows when he will finish his busy work.Bai Meixi is a person who knows how to be grateful. He doesn't say whether to invite him to dinner or not, but he will always be polite to him. Cheng Haiyi knows her current situation, so he is not willing to let her spend money. If there are potatoes, I will buy them.

Bai Meixi smiled, it seemed that Cheng Haiyi had already prepared it, he was really considerate!He must have calculated his own thoughts, so he eliminated any worries for her.

Why!I won't say much if I'm being polite. Anyway, she is already in a very tight situation now. With the four yuan in her hand, she needs to support her salary until next month!And another ten yuan will be deducted from next month's salary, which is not too much.She had to shrink and go on a diet for two consecutive months before she could settle down!

Thinking of this, Bai Meixi didn't hesitate anymore, and said to Cheng Haiyi with a smile: "Okay! Then let's eat baked potatoes."

Outside the copper mine is a wheat field, and next to the wheat field is a forest.Bai Meixi and Cheng Haiyi strolled under the moonlight, the east wind was blowing a bit bitingly cold, but the hearts of both of them were warm, and there was even a hint of sweetness.

The two walked to an open space next to the wheat field. Cheng Haiyi put his military bag on the ground and asked Bai Meixi to sit on it. Then he went to the woods to pick up some dry firewood, and built a wooden box on the open space. A small firewood pile, with a stroke of a match, lit up a faint halo in the dark night.

Cheng Haiyi lit some dead leaves, and then threw them into the dead branches. After a while, the dead branches ignited. Cheng Haiyi kept adding dry wood to it, and the fire became more and more prosperous. Inside, a warmth gradually spread in Bai Meixi's heart.

"Is it warmer?" Cheng Haiyi asked with concern, and then pulled Bai Meixi to lean against the fire.

Bai Meixi nodded, and said sweetly: "Warm."

Cheng Haiyi felt a little bit lost. He inexplicably liked seeing Bai Meixi's smile. That smile was like an angel, exuding innocence and beauty.Cheng Haiyi lit another fire with dead branches. He did not rekindle the fire on the other side. When the fire went out, he took two potatoes and put them on it, using the remaining heat to roast the potatoes.The fresh potatoes were placed on the fire with a slight flame, and they were roasted with a tingling sound. After a while, they exuded a pleasant fragrance.

After a busy day, Bai Meixi was so hungry that her stomach could not help but gurgling as the scent radiated.

The land here is very fertile, and the potatoes grown here are also extraordinarily large. The four large potatoes Cheng Haiyi bought, one is as big as the three she bought in the supermarket before. Presumably, these four potatoes can make her and Cheng Haiyi grow up together. The stomach is full.

"Do you have any plans?" Cheng Haiyi asked.

Bai Meixi looked at the night sky, the moon is beautiful today.After she came through the soul, she has gradually accepted this fact, and also accepted this world.In any case, she finally survived, and if she survived, she had to make a plan for her future.

Bai Meixi knew what aspect Cheng Haiyi was asking about. She had already made a decision about everything about her family, and she had made a complete separation with them.It's not that she, Bai Meixi, is cruel. Although she borrowed the body of the original owner, she doesn't have the right and obligation to support that family of white-eyed wolves.

If she was foolishly obedient like the original owner, she must have lived a life of humiliation in this life, wouldn't it be a waste of life?
Not to mention anything else, she has survived in this era, and she has to live in this era.

"I don't care about anything else, I won't compromise anyway. From now on, I will live in the dormitory of the factory, and I won't go back if I can." Bai Meixi responded, with a relaxed smile on the corner of her mouth, After getting rid of that family, she is free and has nothing to worry about.

When Cheng Haiyi heard Bai Meixi's words, he felt relieved.As long as Bai Meixi doesn't compromise, it's fine. Seeing how strong her mother and grandma are, Cheng Haiyi once worried that Bai Meixi would compromise in helplessness in the end. After all, she is a little girl, and no one in her family speaks to her.

Cheng Haiyi doesn't talk much in the first place, but these days since he got to know Bai Meixi, it seems that he has said all the things he hasn't said since he was a child.He just sat quietly like this, looking at Baimeixi with a sweet smile under the moonlight, which was also a very beautiful enjoyment for him.

After the potato test was finished, Bai Meixi and Cheng Haiyi ate a large warm potato alone. Although there was no salt or seasoning, it was already a delicious meal when they were hungry.

Bai Meixi saw a picture in the memory of the original owner, that is, when he was a child, he and his younger brothers and sisters baked sweet potatoes with burned wheat straw in the field of the farm.Perhaps, in the original owner's life, if it wasn't for the existence of this mother, she would have had a wonderful life!

After eating a big potato, I no longer feel hungry, and my whole body is still warm.

Cheng Haiyi turned to look at Bai Meixi, and asked with concern: "Is it ready? Is it enough? Do you want to roast these two again?"

Bai Meixi waved her hands again and again, and swallowed the last bite of potatoes with all her strength.
