Chapter 75

Lin Xiaorou bent down, gently stroking his thin face, those pure and innocent eyes looked like two black gemstones, but why were those eyes so cautious, was it because she was afraid that she would never come again?

"Lele, my sister has something to do at home. I'll see you tomorrow, okay?"

"Okay, then sister can't lie to me." Lele looked at Lin Xiaorou pitifully, like a little animal that was struggling and sad.

"Okay, since that's the case, let's pull the hook."

Two hands against each other, thumb to thumb made promises to each other.

Only then did Lele laugh, her pale face made people feel distressed.

Walking out of the house, Wang Lan came out too. She looked at Lin Xiaorou hesitantly, and finally all her anxiety turned into one sentence: "Lele will be fine."

Lin Xiaorou looked up at the sky, the stars in the sky were bright and beautiful like Lele's eyes.

"Aunt Wang, what's wrong with Lele, can you tell me?"

"Hey, it's a long story. Lele's father often drank and beat me when I was pregnant. One night he was so drunk that he came home and picked up a stick to beat me. Seeing that the stick was about to fall on me In the stomach, I was startled and dodged to the left, Lele's father rushed over, but he staggered and hit his head on the table before returning home, and I was also surprised that Lele was born early that day."

Speaking of this, Wang Lan wiped away her bitter tears again, and then held back her sobs and continued: "I thought this child was born prematurely, but I didn't expect him to die. He has lived to this day, but his body is extremely weak and he often falls ill. , I would have shortness of breath and even stop breathing for a while, I saw a lot of doctors, but they couldn’t see anything, they only said that they need to recuperate, but this recuperation will cost money, how can I recuperate my child’s body when I am poor and useless.”

"Aunt Wang, don't worry, everything will be fine, go back and take care of Lele, I'll go first."

After bidding farewell to Wang Lan, Lin Xiaorou returned to the restaurant without saying a word.

Now she doesn't know whether to sympathize with Wang Lan, or to hate her for finding a scumbag for blindness.

There are thousands of men, but there are always some scum who are worse than garbage, who come out to harm women, and even harm children!

That poor child, those little eyes make people feel distressed just thinking about it now!

Lin Xiaorou lay on the bed tossing and turning all night, as soon as she closed her eyes, those pure eyes came to mind, and finally she just sat up and waited for the dawn.

Lele's body looks a little qi deficient, and if it is conditioned with medicinal food, it may be able to improve. I remember that the master told her before that people with qi deficiency can eat mushroom and loach porridge to improve.

Because the porridge cooked with shiitake mushrooms and loach is not only extremely nutritious, but also extremely effective for people with Qi deficiency and poor gastrointestinal function.

It is now May, and a small number of small loaches have already come onto the market. Although there are not as many and fatter as the big ones that matured in July and August, they can barely make do at present.

As soon as it was dawn, Lin Xiaorou ran to the vegetable market early. There was still some money left from the money that Uncle Fu lent her last time. She went to many fisheries stores before finally seeing a few people at an inconspicuous stall. Poor loach.

"Boss, I want all of these."

These loaches were caught by the stall himself in the middle of the night. The cost was not high, and at most it wasted some sleeping time.

Moreover, such small loach probably won't attract the appetite of others, so the stall readily packed them all up for Lin Xiaorou and the price was very cheap and reasonable.

Lin Xiaorou didn't know how to kill loaches, so she said a few good words and asked the stall to help disembowel and kill the greasy loaches before returning to the restaurant with the bag.

It's still early now, Lin Xiaorou set up a casserole in the back kitchen after returning home, cooked loach, garlic, shiitake mushrooms, porridge, and scallion crisps into rice porridge, then dozed off by the stove, and soon the aroma of porridge wafted out, Lin Xiaorou Just as she nodded, her forehead hit the edge of the pot and she jumped up with a groan like a pig.

Looking at the bubbling casserole with tears in his eyes, he rubbed his forehead that was still sore with his hands. After a long while, he bent down to remove the lid of the pot, and found that the porridge was overcooked, and there was a scent of fragrance. Come, she happily added some salt to the porridge, then stirred it gently and cooked it for a while, then poured the porridge into another clean small pot, and then hurried out.

According to this time, Wang Lan should also get up and prepare to come to the restaurant. Lin Xiaorou quickened her pace in order to rush back to open the door. When she arrived at Wang Lan's house, Wang Lan just opened the door and came out. Seeing her, Lin Xiaorou stuffed the pot into her hand Said: "This is for Lele, you give it to her quickly, I have to go back and open the door in a hurry."

After speaking, he turned around in a hurry and left. The whole process was done in one go without any pause, and he stared at Wang Lan in a daze.

She carried the pot back into the house, opened the pot lid, and immediately a scent wafted through the room, even Lele turned her head to look at the pot, and said, "Mother, what is this, it smells so good!"

Looking at the pot of porridge, Wang Lan's eyes became moist again. She took out a bowl and filled it up, then cooled it down and carefully fed it to Lele.

Lele quickly ate up a bowl of porridge, and she was still a little bit unsatisfied after eating it: "Mother, this porridge is really delicious and fragrant. I want to eat another bowl."

It was rare to see Lele have such a good appetite. Wang Lan was overjoyed and hurriedly filled another bowl, but Lele still ate it all up.

After eating two bowls of porridge, Lele not only gained strength, but even his complexion seemed to improve.

Looking at Wang Lan with a smile, she said coquettishly: "Mother, this porridge is so delicious, mother, you should eat some yourself, don't let Lele eat all of it."

Wang Lan had a sore nose, touched Lele's soft hair, and said, "Silly boy, there's still a lot in this pot, even if you can eat a few more bowls, it's fine. Besides, mother doesn't like porridge, so it's better to eat porridge." You eat, mother is going to work, you should be good at home, and eat porridge when you are hungry?"

Lele grabbed Wang Lan with one hand, and gave a very sensible oh, but her expression was clearly reluctant.

Wang Lan brushed that hand away cruelly, and said, "Lele, be good, mother will come back sooner as soon as she finishes her work."

After speaking, he held back his tears and went out to the restaurant.

Lin Xiaorou had just returned to the restaurant, and as soon as she walked to the door, she saw Uncle Fu. Seeing her hurrying footsteps, Uncle Fu asked with a sweaty face. Lin Xiaorou smiled unwillingly, took out the key from her pocket and handed it back After leaving Uncle Fu, the two entered the restaurant one after the other, Lin Xiaorou faltered and hawed, and finally spoke cruelly.

"Fu Bo, I want to borrow money!"

For a moment, Uncle Fu looked at her: "Borrow money? What are you going to do?"

"I'm useful, can you lend me five taels of silver first!"

Five taels of silver is not much, but Uncle Fu is very surprised that this Lin Xiaorou has no contacts or relatives in Jiangcheng, and now she eats and lives in restaurants with almost no expenses, so suddenly borrowing money is worthy of deliberation.

Seeing that he seemed suspicious, Lin Xiaorou sighed and said, "Uncle Fu, are you worried that I will run away after borrowing the money? Don't worry, I, Lin Xiaorou, am not such a person, and besides, I don't have to settle for this mere five taels of money. I have ruined my future, I have calculated, and according to the current situation, I can see that by the end of the year, I can get far more than these five taels, so do you think I will throw away the watermelon for sesame seeds?"

At the end, she added cruelly: "Uncle Fu, if you trust me, lend me the loan. If you don't trust me, then it can only be considered that I overestimated my image in your heart."

Uncle Fu took a deep breath, this girl spoke too harshly and bluntly, she simply didn't show any affection at all.

If he doesn't borrow it, doesn't he just make it clear that he doesn't want to cooperate happily?
"Xiaorou, it's not that I don't want to borrow it, but that you let me know your name anyway. If you are deceived, I will help you!"

Hearing this tone, knowing that he was willing to borrow Lin Xiaorou, he couldn't help but feel happy and said: "Don't worry, Uncle Fu, I just use it on my body, and I won't be deceived by others, but thank you anyway."

Uncle Fu shook his head helplessly and took out a silver bill of five taels and gave it to her: "Deduct it from your salary every month, so that the IOU will also be waived."

"Fu Bo, you are such a good person. A good person will definitely be rewarded."

Lin Xiaorou flattered her in a sweet tone, unaware that the head chef had also come, and frowned in disgust when she heard her disgusting Bala's flattery.

Then he snorted and went into the kitchen.

Lin Xiaorou made a face at his back and went in to make today's yogurt.

As soon as she entered the door, Wang Lan followed behind.

Holding her back was a tearful thank you in various ways, which actually made Lin Xiaorou feel embarrassed.

Hehe smiled and said, "Aunt Wang, this is my wish for Lele, it has nothing to do with you, so you don't have to thank me, I just want him to get better as soon as possible, so that he can play with other children."

"Wang Lan!" Before the two of them finished speaking, the devil's voice of the head chef exploded in the kitchen again.

The two of them trembled in fright, Wang Lan took a look at Lin Xiaorou and ran in hastily, and was dumbfounded when he saw a few dishes scattered in the small pond.

Lin Xiaorou beat her head even harder. She was so busy yesterday that she forgot to help Wang Lan get rid of the rest of the dishes. A few innocent dishes just floating around in the sink was an eyesore.

It would be strange for the chef to catch the handle and not show off his power now.

"Wang Lan, don't you want to do it anymore? If you don't want to do it, get out. There are so many people out there who want to do it. You don't even bother to wash a few dishes, do you want me to wipe them for you?"

The head chef had a ferocious look on her face, and Wang Lan lowered her head after being yelled at, twisting her dress with both hands helplessly.

Obviously unable to parry.

"Why are you so fierce? I washed these dishes. If you want to blame me, you should blame me. If you scold an innocent person, you are still a man!" Lin Xiaorou was furious, and she didn't have a good word to say.

The head chef glared at her angrily, and shouted, "Is it a man, do you want to try it?"
