Chapter 118 I like it so much

Wang Cuihua only had the dividend increase in her mind and didn’t know anything else: “I didn’t say anything.”

Bai Lu waved her hand to let her go.

Wang Cuihua didn’t want to leave and wanted to get a raise. The next second she saw the cold-faced man coming out of the kitchen, she left immediately.

Let’s find a way to increase wages next time.

Bai Lu has negotiated more than three sales channels, and the sales points of others are far away. For the time being, I only leave contact information. If there is new cooperation in the future, we will notify you as soon as possible.

After sending away the last batch of people who came to get roasted chestnuts with sugar, Bai Lu picked a basket of fresh seasonal fruits and went out.

 Go to the wet market and buy groceries.

I stopped by Xiao Dazhuang’s house.

 Xiao Dazhuang was not at home, but his mother was at home. When Bai Lu asked about the ladder, she was stunned for a moment.

It seems that Xiao Dazhuang has never mentioned this matter.

Just a moment later.

Xiao Dazhuang's mother explained: "Originally, the roof has been repaired, and Dazhuang was ready to return the ladder to you. Who would have thought that there was a strong wind yesterday and the tiles were blown off again. All the spare tiles at home have been used up." ”

"Dazhuang went out to buy new tiles and plans to patch them up when he comes back. Do you want to use a ladder to hurry? If you are in a hurry, I will ask Da Zhuang to send them back to you when he comes back."

Seeing that Bai Lu was about to speak, Liang Lixia immediately politely excused herself: "It doesn't matter how many holes there are in our house. It's just the kitchen and the sleeping area that have air leakage."

“It’s okay to move the cooking to the front yard temporarily, and just use more quilts to sleep at night.”

 “If it doesn’t rain, you won’t get wet…”

Everyone has said so, how can Bailu really not know the importance of it and let people eat and sleep in the open?

 Let alone family rules and etiquette, no one with any conscience would force the ladder back at such a time.

The conscientious Bai Lu could only smile and give the fruit prepared in advance to Xiao Dazhuang's mother, and declined the other's kind invitation to stay for dinner.

 Go to the wet market to buy groceries.

On the way back, she ran into Mrs. Zhang by chance. Bai Lu asked Mrs. Zhang to borrow a ladder. Mrs. Zhang’s house actually had a ladder.

 That's right...

 The ladder was placed in the chicken coop by Mrs. Zhang, and a straw chicken nest was cushioned on one ladder grid. Eight or nine old hens were squatting in the nest, and the chicks would hatch in four or five days.

If the old hen was interrupted when moving the ladder to move the nest, she would not be used to it and would not want to sit in the nest anymore, causing all the chicks to die at the last moment. Bai Lu would have sinned.

Not only has Bai Lu never seen this unique and magical hatching method, she has never even heard of it.

We can only chat for a few words and go back to each house to cook.

A frost-beaten eggplant came home, opened the door, and carried the vegetable basket into the kitchen.

Passing by the well, I accidentally saw a man washing vegetables, his resentful eyes were particularly complicated.

 Xiao Cheng looked calm, he calmly looked away, and continued washing vegetables as if nothing had happened.

 After a while, a large piece of chili pepper fell into the basin.

 Green chili pepper, red chili pepper.

 A pair of small white hands reached into the water from the side and scrubbed vigorously. The smell of chili pepper reached the sky.

  Xiao Cheng: “…”

“The corners of Xiaowei’s mouth are no longer wet.” Bai Lu explained before Xiao Cheng could speak, smiling extraordinarily softly.

 The smile is particularly dazzling and dazzling in the sun.

Xiao Cheng's eyes twitched slightly, the vegetables in his hand made a crisp clicking sound, and his thin lips parted lightly: "As long as you like it."

Bai Lu smiled and said: "Of course I like it."

 “I like it very much.”

  Xiao Cheng: “…”

The green and red peppers covering the water surface were densely packed and were quickly cleaned and returned to the vegetable basket.

Bai Lu carried the vegetable basket and walked leisurely to the kitchen. As soon as she took a step, a word came from behind her.

"They will come to our house for dinner the day after tomorrow." "Who?" Bai Lu turned around suddenly.

 As far as I can remember, no one has ever dared to form a gang and come to the bully’s house for dinner or a party.

 Except for a few times…

 “Luo Shiliu, Xiao Dazhuang, Wang Hao.”

Sure enough, the three names Xiao Cheng said overlapped with a certain memory that emerged in Bai Lu's mind.

That is Xiao Cheng’s memory.

 The day after tomorrow, April 12 of the lunar calendar, May 18 of the New Calendar, Xiao Cheng’s birthday.

 It was also the day when Xiao Cheng’s mother ran away from home.

 Xiao Cheng doesn’t celebrate his birthday.

Luo Shiliu, Xiao Dazhuang, and Wang Hao did not dare to mention anything about birthdays on this day.

 But every year on this day, they would buy good wine and food, and shamelessly come to Xiao Cheng's house to cook and eat together.

They had known each other for so many years, and yet they dared to do so on this day. They were driven out of the house by Xiao Cheng. After refusing to come in to cook, they climbed over the wall and went to the kitchen to show off their terrible cooking skills. .

Xiaowei’s classmate undergoes fountain-type gastric lavage every year.

 Xiao Cheng only drank wine and did not eat vegetables. In the end, the table full of "delicious food" all returned to the cook's stomach.

 When leaving, they all held on to the door and climbed out...

Bai Lu didn't understand why Xiao Cheng told her this. Luo Shiliu and others came to secretly celebrate his birthday, not hers. It had nothing to do with her.

  Could it be.

What Xiao Cheng wants to express is that if there are guests at home for dinner, she, a woman, cannot serve?

Bai Lu followed her grandmother in reading a lot of books in later generations, and learned a lot about Chinese culture and historical heritage spanning five thousand years, including folk art and folk customs.

Whether it is in this era or in later generations, there are indeed customs in some places that still persist in the bad feudal custom of not letting women come to the table to eat. They are stubborn and stubborn.

Bai Lu lives in the peaceful era of the 21st century. The education she has received since childhood is that men and women are equal.

 Do not accept this unfair feudal custom.

If Xiao Cheng really meant this, then she would go out to eat good food and let a group of them take care of things at home. The home belonged to Xiao Cheng and she had no right to interfere.

But that doesn’t mean she can’t go out early and come back late. It’s absolutely impossible for her to be assigned to eat in the corner of the chair at home.

Xiao Cheng noticed the arrogance hidden in the bones from Bai Lu again, but it was only revealed inadvertently for a moment.

She hid it well, only floating for a second, and then quickly retracted it, her breath returned to its usual demure and gentle tone.

The face also returned to a polite, distant, standard smile without showing teeth: "Isn't it convenient for me to eat at the same table?"

 She always spoke tactfully, avoiding all impolite directness, and sounded like ordinary questions.

Even if the answer is wrong, he will not make a fuss or lose his temper. He will only lock the person in a small dark room and reward him with chili peppers.

Just…

 Xiao Cheng didn't know where Bai Lu was thinking. It couldn't be a good thing, and he must have misinterpreted his meaning.

  Puckered lips to deny: "No."

The words continued unfinished: "Are you used to it?"

"What?" Bai Lu was still stunned by the unexpected response. After hearing his question, she became even more confused.

 What are you used to?

Xiao Cheng looked at the girl's crystal clear eyes and stared silently for a long time. There was nothing but surprise and confusion there, and there was no trace of arrogance and alienation that was incompatible with this place.

 Slowly said: "Let's eat together."

 Oh...it turns out we are having dinner together.

  Bai Lu nodded in understanding: "There's nothing I'm not used to. It would be better if I could take the spoon."

 She is not lucky enough to enjoy the devil's set meal or something like that!
