90s, The Cannon Fodder Wife of the Paranoid Boss is Reborn

Chapter 58 A lot of courage

Xiao Cheng pursed his thin lips slightly, held Bai Lu's feet to prevent them from retracting, and pressed harder.

Bai Lu dug at the table in pain, her brows furrowed subconsciously, but she immediately let go after a moment and held back.

 The strength on the feet gradually became lighter.

Bai Lu breathed a sigh of relief.

 Suddenly became heavier again.

 She gritted her teeth and held back.

 “Cough…cough cough…”

A coughing sound suddenly sounded in the back room. The sound was like an old bellows eroded by the cold wind and years. The vicissitudes of life, hard work, and intermittent coughing could tell that it was an old gentleman.

“The old man was disobedient and stole food. I’ll go take a look. Remember to rub it hard, Da Zhuang.”

Grandma said a quick explanation and ran to the back room.

 Sudden increase in strength on the ankle.

The burning pain of the flames was burned from the ankle nerve, and the straight burned heavenly lid was burned. It was painful to shrink back and could not shrink back.

Step on the boss’s chest impartially.

　And… and… and kicked the big guy down!

 Xiao Wei covered his face, it’s over, it’s over!

 When the fight breaks out, will he help the elder brother or Bai Lu? The elder brother will definitely help.

But Bai Lu is pregnant, so she has to help.

Then how can I help? What should I do?

 Bai Lu was stunned for a second, then she realized what she was doing and immediately threw herself on the ground to help the boss up: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I didn't mean it, it was because my foot hurt just now and it was an instinctive reaction. It couldn't control the pedaling..."

"It's not my subjective consciousness. I don't feel any pain from being rubbed by you, no, no! I'm not saying that it hurts my feet when you rub them. It's my feet that hurt, no, no! I don't feel any pain at all. It's just that my feet have convulsions on their own. !”

Xiao Cheng raised his eyes slightly, his deep eyes were filled with darkness and silence, his thin lips were straightened, his face was gloomy, and the stormy aura spread rapidly, oppressing every corner of the space.

 He slowly raised his hand.

 Sudden drop in air pressure.

Bai Lu's heartbeat stopped.

 As a result, he flicked the dust off his clothes.

Grandma’s house is a mud-brick house with black tiles on the roof and wooden boards on the floor. Even if it is cleaned every day, a layer of light ash will still fall when it is windy or rainy.

When the ball reached his chest, Xiao Cheng half-smiled, and raised his hand to pinch his shiny white chin.

 “Are you brave enough?”

 The sound is cooler than the autumn wind blowing through fallen leaves.

  Bai Lu's chin was pinched, as if his lifeline was pinched, and his whole body could not move.

 In his previous life, in Xiao Cheng's memory, he had suffered knife wounds, gunshot wounds, and lynchings... but he had never been kicked in the chest.

 She really…

 It’s over, it’s over, my legs are weak.

Xiao Cheng was suddenly thrown into his arms. The girl had her arms around his neck, her whole weight hanging on him.

He was so bold that he broke away from his hand, showed him a pitiful expression, looked at him with eyes as clear and pure as glass, and cried out in pain in a delicate and fragile voice.

 "Ah Cheng...my feet hurt..."

Xiao Cheng hugged the slender and soft waist, his palms were warm, and he listened to the soft and weak voice that penetrated his eardrums.

When he regained consciousness, his hand had already helped Bai Lu to the chair, and the other hand was reaching for the medicine bottle.

He took it back as if nothing had happened, and his tone was as calm as usual: "Who asked you to go up the mountain?"

Bai Lu grabbed his arm and smiled very sweetly: "I agree."

Xiao Cheng: "..." Xiao Wei Qing Mimi looked through the fingers covering her face and found that the situation had changed, so she put down her hand.

 Continue to lower his head and stare at the straw hat silently, as if nothing happened just now, yes, nothing happened.

Bai Lu kicked her eldest brother and was fine.

The eldest brother also sat on the chair next to him, reached out and grabbed Bai Lu's feet, put them on his lap, took a medicine bottle and poured medicinal wine into his hands, and continued to rub Bai Lu's ankles.

 After kneading it, I just helped Bai Lu put on her shoes.

"Ahem..." The cough in the back room, followed by the sound of footsteps approaching from far away, spread to the main room.

Grandma helped grandpa out: "Old man, let me tell you, this big boy is very filial and a good boy. Not only did he bring me sweet oranges to eat, he was also very kind to his wife, and he wouldn't even rub his feet. "

 Xiao Cheng was already immune to the word "big and strong" under Bai Lu's forceful hug and crazy blinking of his eyes.

Grandpa’s face is rosy and his energy is still there. Although his body is thin, he is still strong. He just can’t stand the heat and coughs whenever he eats something that has been stir-fried for a long time.

Grandma usually doesn't let him eat. Today he has rheumatism and foot pain, so he can't go up the mountain to worship his ancestors. He stays at home and can't help but eat things he hasn't eaten for a long time.

 Then he coughed.

 Cough until you spit out everything.

Grandma also caught me: "I told you not to eat it, but the roasted chestnuts Ah Fu brought back from the town were black and mushy, and they looked burnt at first glance. They were burnt, hard, mushy, and dry. I couldn't eat any of them." I couldn't swallow it. I said I couldn't eat it, but you just didn't listen and insisted on eating it. Now that I'm fine, I coughed until I vomited it all up. I'll see if you still eat it in the future. "

Grandpa knew he was wrong. He coughed until his face turned red, but he smiled helplessly and did not refute.

After being helped to sit down, he raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Cheng and Bai Lu, who were sitting quietly on the chair.

He opened his mouth and asked: "Have you eaten?"

Bai Lu shook her head honestly: "Not yet, grandpa."

This call made my grandpa smile. He felt very happy and said in a more friendly tone: "There is food in the square. Today is Qingming Festival. There are good dishes and good meat. The money is evenly distributed among the incense and candle money. You go and eat more." These are your hard-earned money, so you can’t waste it.”

But grandma waved her hand: "Don't worry, Afu will come and call us when the food is ready. Now everyone is chopping firewood, washing vegetables, and moving tables and chairs to the ancestral hall warehouse, as well as new pots and pans. I'm a strong wife." My foot is injured. If I go there early and can’t do anything, I will be criticized by the tongue-tied woman.”

“Grandma said yes.” Bai Lu nodded obediently.

 “You’re so good, you are a perfect match for a big, strong and good boy.” Grandma smiled kindly.

Bai Lu: “…”

  Xiao Cheng: “…”

Grandpa and grandma said a lot of praise and blessings. They talked about being thirsty and invited everyone to drink tea.

Bai Lu took a sip of tea and then spoke softly: "Grandma, do you have chestnuts growing on your mountain?"

Grandma nodded: "I planted it during the production team, and our family was given a big hill. There are chestnuts, star anise, and some random fruit trees on the hill."

"Afu came back from his trip to the town this time and brought some sugar-roasted chestnuts for us to try. He said they were given to him by the Xiao family in the town. He also said that during the Qingming Festival, he would return to his hometown to buy chestnuts. Afu asked us to pay attention. Is it you?"

Bai Lu wanted to buy chestnuts, but she didn’t intend to take the blame for Coke. If her grandpa and grandma were judged as a waste of food and refused to sell chestnuts to her, it would be more of a loss than the gain.

 Explain the matter briefly now.

After hearing this, grandma understood it clearly and thought of a person in her mind. She shook her head immediately.

 “It’s a waste of food...” Grandpa sighed.

 Young people today don’t know how valuable food is, and chestnuts can save lives in times of famine.

Grandma immediately decided: "The chestnuts we saved must be sold to Da Zhuang and his wife. We cannot waste food."

The words just fell.

　　A figure quickly ran in from outside the door to announce the good news: "Grandpa and Grandma, someone is here to collect chestnuts at a high price!"
