Chapter 57 Does it hurt?

 Xiao Cheng and Bai Lu Xiao Wei also followed closely behind.

The sky is brightening, the drizzle has stopped, the dark clouds are broken by the blue sky, and the land is filled with light.

  Xiao Guofu had people place roast suckling pig, roast chicken, fruits and other offerings neatly in front of the Xiao family's ancestor's tomb, and candles more than one meter high were burning brightly in the wind.

Nearly five hundred Xiao family members held lit incense and stood in front of the tomb hall. They were not in rows, but they were all neat and orderly.

The top of the mountain is huge. No matter how uneven the ground is, it has gone through countless years of carving, wind and rain, and the descendants of the Xiao family have practiced it year after year, and it has been polished into a stable world.

Standing in the middle of the grave hall are the younger generation, the older generation’s grandparents, and the grandparents standing on both sides.

Like previous years, the old people held three incense sticks in their hands, and the fragrant mist floated upward in circles. Their solemn and kind voices sounded good wishes throughout the mountain—

“Ancestors of the Xiao family, the annual Qingming Festival is here again, and the children of the Xiao family are here to see you.”

“Ancestors bless my children of the Xiao family to have good health, be smart, make academic progress, have all their wishes come true, have a successful career, be blessed with great blessings, and have a happy family...”

 The sound of good wishes fell, and the incense was held and three bows were made.

After the worship, the children of the Xiao family went to the tomb in an orderly manner to offer incense. After the sacrifice, they dispersed to both sides and went down the mountain one after another.

Bai Lu and Xiao Wei followed Xiao Cheng. After paying homage to their ancestors and offering incense, they also followed the large army down the mountain.

Just like when going up the mountain, everyone was carrying roasted suckling pigs and roasted chickens as offerings, striding along while shouting and laughing, lingering in the crowd.

The sound of footsteps was gentle and fast going down the mountainside.

When Bai Lu walked to a slightly steep section of the road, she was accidentally bumped by someone and twisted her foot.

Xiao Cheng helped Bailu go under the big tree, put the big straw hat on the ground, let her sit, took off the plastic water shoes on her feet, and rubbed her ankles with control.

 But it seemed... there wasn't much relief, Bai Lu still felt a little bit of pain.

 Xiao Cheng had no choice but to carry her down the mountain.

 Xiao Wei followed behind holding a big straw hat.

The boys and girls of the Xiao family were very excited when they saw their eldest brother carrying his sister-in-law on his back. They gathered in small groups, chattering with their heads together, and their eyes flashed with little red hearts.

 “Wow~ Brother Cheng is a good man…”

“I didn’t expect Brother Cheng to have such a side. He treats the grandsons of the Chen family completely differently from his sister-in-law. It’s so different. He’s so gentle!”

“Big brother’s fist can not only break the bridge of the nose, but can also carry my sister-in-law on my back. He’s so cool, handsome and powerful!”

 “It’s good for a woman to be a big brother...”

Bai Lu was so stimulated by the comments from "Brother Cheng"'s fanboys and fans that her head was buzzing and her thoughts were in a blur.

  People's customs in the 21st century are more open than in the 1990s, and fast-food love is also prevalent on the streets.

Bai Lu had seen a lot of on-and-off love when she was studying, and almost none of them could go all the way to marriage.

Every time she hears her grandparents, grandpa, mom and dad tell old stories about the past, and sees their long-lasting love, Bai Lu can’t help but sigh, the love in the past was so good.

 Love only one person in your life.

Now that I have traveled back to the 1990s, I feel completely different and I no longer fantasize about love.

 Fantasy about being able to go back.

   Bai Lu also knew in her heart that the chances were slim, but she never wanted to extinguish the hope in her heart.

 Always be prepared to be in the modern world when you open your eyes.

 But after so long, when I open my eyes every day, I still see the mottled ceiling of history—the 1990s. well…

A warm breath fell by his ears, and a sigh was so soft that it was almost invisible. Xiao Cheng tilted his head slightly.

  A low-mellow voice asked: "Does it hurt?"

Bai Lu's head was resting lazily on Xiao Cheng's shoulder, and her face was a little close to his neck. He turned his head abruptly, and his thin, cold lips inevitably touched her cheek lightly.

The cold and thin lips were like fire, burning her face, causing her brain to wake up instantly.

"No, no, I think the sky is getting a little dark. I don't know if it will rain suddenly. Let's go down the mountain quickly. A straw hat can block the drizzle, but it can't block the heavy rain. It won't be good if you get wet by the rain. ”

Bai Lu finished speaking a lot of words in one breath, but her heart was beating fast and she could only quietly straighten up.

 Stay far away from Xiao Cheng’s back.

The burning face slowly moved back.

 Hands around his neck... just don't move them. If you move them too much at once, it will be obvious.

Xiao Cheng noticed her little movement, a smile flashed across his dark eyes, and he lifted the hand between his legs to stabilize her sliding posture.

"Go down the mountain and apply some medicinal wine, and you will be cured soon."

Bai Lu's face was lifted back to the man's broad and strong shoulders. She paused and said in a low voice: "We didn't bring any medicinal wine. We'll be fine if we rest for a while."

 “I have medicinal wine at home, a strong wife should go to my house!”

 Bai Lu and Xiao Cheng both looked sideways when they heard the sound.

Sure enough, they saw the white-haired, red-faced grandma beside them, her legs and legs were nimble, she smiled kindly at them as she walked, and her voice was particularly kind and kind.

  Obviously, they welcome this loving young couple.

As soon as I got home, I walked to the high platform of the main room, opened the small drawer of the wooden table, and took out a bottle of brown medicinal wine.

Xiao Cheng, who had just entered the door, asked him to sit in the room: "Hurry up and put her on the chair inside, take off her shoes, and rub the twisted area for her until it feels hot and relax her muscles. After a few days, It will be fine soon.”

"This is a medicinal wine recipe passed down by the ancestors of the Xiao family to treat bruises. Every household has it. In my family, the old man went to the mountains to find medicinal materials to make it. When my son was still alive, he went up the mountain to pick chestnuts and star anise, and he accidentally sprained his foot. Use this to wipe it, it works very well.”

 Xiao Cheng put Bai Lu on the chair, took the medicinal wine from his grandmother, and squatted down slightly.

Took off Bai Lu's shoes, poured some medicinal wine into her hands, and gently rubbed her slightly red ankles.

Xiao Wei was also greeted by his grandma and sat on the chair. He held his big straw hat obediently and did not look around.

His eyes were glued to Xiao Cheng and Bai Lu.

Grandma kept praising him for being so well-behaved. She turned around and saw Xiao Cheng's unwillingness to exert force, and couldn't help but remind her: "Dazhuang, you have to rub it hard. If you rub it too lightly, the medicine won't be effective. It can't penetrate her feet. So rub it hard." Get better soon.”

Xiao Cheng stopped massaging, raised his eyes slightly, looked at Bai Lu, and asked earnestly: "Does it hurt?"

Bai Lu immediately let go of her clenched lower lip and shook her head: "It doesn't hurt, you can rub it hard."

Xiao Cheng glanced at her thin white fingertips that were slightly curled up on the handle of the chair, and gently rubbed her feet in her hands.

Grandma frowned at the sight, "Dazhuang, you don't feel so sorry for your daughter-in-law. You don't need to rub her hard now. She won't get better in ten and a half days. Do you want her to be in pain for ten and a half days?" months?”

With an embarrassed look on his face, Bai Lu shrank her feet and said to Xiao Cheng, "How about I rub it myself?"
