Chapter 167 The Thirst Problem

Even if something unpleasant happens, Ning Xia doesn't intend to take it to heart.

On the contrary, Xiang Toon cared more than Ning Xia. She should have told Nie Chen about the matter. After dinner, Nie Chen asked Ning Xia about Zheng Yanjun. Ning Xia frowned, what else is this guy thinking?Strip Zheng Yanjun.

The matter has passed, and Ningxia is really too lazy to mention it. She thought that she and Zheng Yanjun met by chance, and they would never meet again in the future, so there is really no need to chase after it, as if she still has more As if he cared about that person.She is an arrogant person. Back then, Zheng Yanjun dumped her like trash. Now she just ignores him like trash. There is no need to keep chasing after a pile of trash, right?
After staring deeply at Nie Chen, Ning Xia thought in her heart, the Nie Chen in front of her is really many times better than that Zheng Yanjun. Why didn't things like childhood sweethearts happen between her and Nie Chen? If it happened, she would save herself from falling in love with that scumbag Zheng Yanjun.Thinking about it carefully, she is really blind, and she can't complain about being deceived by Zheng Yanjun.

"Speak up, tell me the name of that person, you are still trying to protect that person after being beaten, right?" Nie Chen's eyes were slightly angry, because Ningxia didn't mention the beating anyway. her people.He heard from Xiang Toon, from that person's girlfriend, that Ningxia liked that person. Thinking of this, Nie Chen clenched his fists, and finally a rival in love disappeared, and now Ningxia's ex-boyfriend, Nie Chen, appeared again. Chen couldn't help but think of the famous poem in the Book of Songs, "The so-called Yiren is on the side of the water. Follow it back and forth, and the road is long and obstructed."

Ning Xia glanced up at Nie Chen, smiled lightly and said, "Don't talk nonsense, he's just an old classmate, I almost forgot who he is." Not a good, nor nutritious story.She decided to change the subject, put a piece of braised pork into Nie Chen's bowl, and said, "You're too skinny, you need to eat more meat, you're too skinny, you'll hurt your hand even if you hold it."

Nie Chen was slightly taken aback, with a slight smile in his eyes, even though he never liked pork, he still happily ate that piece of braised pork with rice.Suddenly, I felt that braised pork with rice was very appetizing, so I turned to Xiang Toon and said, "I will have this braised pork tomorrow at noon. It tastes good."

Xiang Toon hurriedly supported his chin, for fear that his chin would accidentally fall off again.She remembered that her young master didn't like pork, and she made this braised pork dish for lunch today especially for grasshoppers.However, it seems like this, Xiang Toon glanced at the grasshopper secretly, and saw that his bowl was almost filled with braised pork except for rice. The dish is ready.Feeling so happy in his heart, Xiang Toon couldn't help but scolded Grasshopper secretly, seeing how he was eating, it was too ugly.

Ning Xia quickly finished her meal and did not leave. Instead, she looked at Nie Chen, her eyes rolled occasionally, wondering what she was thinking?
Nie Chen couldn't eat anymore after being watched by her. He didn't have a big appetite, but now he had almost eaten, so he put down the bowl and chopsticks, and asked Ning Xia if there was something wrong?
Ning Xia nodded.

Nie Chen muttered inwardly, no wonder she was so kind to him today, so it was because she wanted something from him?Can't this girl make him feel less sad?Standing up, he walked to the living room, sat on the sofa and asked Ning Xia what happened?

"Do you have time at night?" Ning Xia blinked her big watery eyes and looked at Nie Chen and asked.

Nie Chen's heart skipped a beat, Ning Xia asked him like this, could it be possible that he wants to date her?But his rationality immediately reminded him, stop dreaming, it would be a great thing not to be tricked by this girl.Raising his eyebrows, Nie Chen told Ning Xia to speak directly.

"Grasshopper helped me grind out a piece of apple-green wool this morning. I thought it would be an emerald apple. I heard that Empress Dowager Cixi had an emerald watermelon. When I was young, I thought it would be great if I could see it. Today is the perfect time to grind it. When I produced a piece of green apple, I thought I don’t have an emerald watermelon, so it’s not bad to make an emerald apple. So..." Ning Xia rubbed her hands, her face was stained with a faint blush, she was slightly embarrassed, as if As if embarrassed to speak.

Nie Chen was really excited, he really wanted to run to the balcony immediately to see if the sun came out from the west today, is Ningxia still her usual?Wasn't her cheeky face in the past so thick that even a meter ruler wasn't enough to measure it?

"I see. I'll go to Cuiyuxuan to help you make it tonight." After speaking, Nie Chen stood up and asked Ningxia if he had anything else to do. If not, he went out.

Ningxia smiled and said it was all right, see you at Cuiyuxuan tonight.

As soon as Nie Chen left, Xiang Toon came over and asked Ning Xia, "What a pity if you want to make jade apples with that piece of wool in the morning? The rest of the wool is enough to make pendants."

After Ningxia asked Xiangchun to sit down, he said, "It can also be ground into beads and made into emerald necklaces. At night, you can also stay in Cuiyuxuan with the grasshopper. I watched the grasshopper learn quickly. Let Nie Chen Teach him, let him learn to make bead chains for the remaining jadeite."

Xiang Toon immediately looked sideways, saying that the bead chain made like that is still valuable.

Ningxia smiled and said that she didn't think about what was valuable or not. She just wanted to let the grasshopper learn the craft. No matter what kind of jewelry is processed, there will always be leftovers. Those leftovers are only suitable for grinding into beads and making bead chains. But if they get it to Jincuifang for processing, let alone they are too lazy to deal with the order, even if they can accept it, she will feel that she will lose money. The processing fee there is too high, so she wants to let the grasshopper learn to grind beads and make them into beads. Chain or bracelet, so that the leftovers will not be wasted in the future.

Xiang Toon nodded knowingly.

Ningxia said again, "When the grasshopper learns how to grind beads, how about I let him wear the beads into a necklace and give it to you?" At that time, she saw the way the toon looked at the grasshopper, and felt that the grasshopper really burned the incense this time, and the toon should have taken a fancy to him.In Ningxia's heart, both public and private, she very much hopes that the grasshopper and the toon can be together. One is to let the grasshopper have a home, and the grasshopper can stay with her forever in the future. The person she can trust in this world , There are really not many, so she is not willing to lose one more.

Xiang Toon has a lot of heart and eyes, and it can be seen from Ning Xia's eyes at a glance that Ning Xia said these words with deep meaning, his face almost turned red, and he pretended not to care and said, "I'm afraid that he's an idiot. The angular ones will pierce me, let him send it to someone else, I don’t dare to take it.”

Ning Xia laughed, thinking to tease Xiang Toon again, but Xiang Toon saw that the grasshopper had finished eating and was clearing the table, so she hurried over to help clean it up.

Ningxia looked at those two people, bickering nonstop, but cooperating tacitly. In fact, he was quite envious of them. Grasshopper is a good person. Even if he is a little rough, Xiang Toon will not suffer any disadvantages if he is with him.And Xiang Toon has a really good eye for seeing people, unlike her, who fell in love with scum twice in two loves!
Taking a deep breath, Ningxia threw away all the things she didn't want to think about. Now she doesn't want to talk about love. Helping her make the emerald apple made me very happy.Not only love can make people fascinated, in fact, liking something is the same. Now she is fascinated by liking jadeite.

In the evening, Ningxia waited for Nie Chen at Cuiyuxuan, and witnessed Nie Chen's neat cutting of jadeite wool.

Nie Chen cut the raw embryo that he wanted to make into an emerald apple, and the rest was polishing.This emerald apple is not difficult to make. The main process is grinding. After grinding out the shape of the apple, the only carvings are the navel and stem of the apple. These simple carvings are nothing to Nie Chen. .The most time-consuming thing is polishing. Even diamonds are difficult to show their brilliance without polishing, and the same is true for emeralds.

Nie Chen left the polishing process to teach the grasshopper how to use special tools to polish beads. When he first started working on jadeite, the grasshopper thought it would be impossible to learn. Seeing him trying to learn, but clumsy, Xiang Toon began to bury him non-stop, and then saw that he was really angry, and said ruthlessly that he would chop off his own hand if he couldn't learn it, and then his tone softened in fright, and he slowly coaxed the grasshopper.

You can't eat a big fat man all at once. Around ten o'clock, Ningxia sent the grasshoppers and Chinese toon back.She stayed with Nie Chen to finish the remaining process of the emerald apple.

Nie Chen took another flake from the remaining jadeite wool, and after seeing through it repeatedly under the light, he said to Ning Xia, "This green fruit is actually very beautiful as a brooch. Although the imperial green is expensive , but the color is still darker, this green fruit looks youthful and vigorous, which matches your temperament very well. I can make you a leaf brooch."

Ningxia said "um", unscrewed the mineral water and handed it to Nie Chen. When Nie Chen reached out to take the mineral water, his fingers touched Ningxia's. Ningxia retracted his hand subconsciously, but Nie Chen did not hesitate to throw away the mineral water. I want to grab Ningxia's hand back, and then forcefully ask her, "What are you hiding? I have thorns on my hand?"

Ningxia was so frightened that her face turned pale, she didn't know how to answer Nie Chen's words, her hand was held by his big hand, it was extremely uncomfortable, as if her and Nie Chen's hands were positive and negative, holding them together was equivalent to connecting them. When the power was turned off, her bones were numb from the electricity.

"Water, it's been spilled." Ning Xia muttered, trying to avoid Nie Chen's topic.

Nie Chen frowned, and snorted coldly in his heart, why pretend to live, if she really knew how to save so much, such a good jadeite wool, she wouldn't be used to make jadeite apples.But he said, "Yeah, what a pity, the water was spilled, and I was thirsty, and it seems that I can only get thirsty."

Ning Xia lowered her head so low that she couldn't lower it anymore, she didn't dare to look into Nie Chen's eyes, a crazy deer broke into her heart, jumping around in it, she almost couldn't bear it.She stammered and said, "It's okay...it doesn't matter, downstairs...there are...yes, I...go get it..."

Nie Chen suddenly pulled Ningxia into his arms, pressed his head close to Ningxia, and said in a low voice, "Actually... there is another way to solve the problem of thirst..."
