Chapter 142 Dududu

When Xiao Wei came back from school, he saw someone coming out of his door again, and it was a rare person.

 Bai Lu’s mother and Bai Lu’s younger brother.

Bai Lu's brother seemed to be walking awkwardly. He trembled every step and was supported by Bai Lu's mother.

She also screamed in pain and cursed as she walked: "Bai Lu, that broomstick with his arms turned outward! I fell and injured my leg. Mom, why didn't you ask Bai Lu for medical expenses just now, and didn't you continue to ask Bai Lu for the method of roasting chestnuts with sugar? I don't have money. I see. What to do with the bicycle? "

"What can I do if Bai Lu doesn't give it to you? I'll discuss the solution with your dad when you get home. Don't worry about your foot injury. Dad and I will try to find a way to deal with the bicycle. After your foot injury heals, I will definitely buy it for you, okay. Already?"

 “That’s pretty much it!”

As the two figures walked further and further away, Xiao Wei also ran home quickly and quickly entered the yard and closed the door.

The vegetables in the large sink have been washed and put in bamboo baskets, and Bai Lu is about to carry them back to the kitchen.

Hearing the sound of the door closing, he turned around subconsciously and accurately captured the X-scan light of the little guy again.

Seeing her turn around, he immediately took it back, grabbed the shoulder strap of the small schoolbag with both hands and said, "I saw your mother and your brother."

Bai Lu nodded, indicating that she understood, and walked towards the kitchen carrying a basket of vegetables.

Xiao Wei was stunned for a moment. He never thought that Bai Lu would just leave without explaining. Was it because he didn't ask clearly enough?

 “Are they coming to see you for anything?”

"fine."

 Bai Lu didn’t tell the little monitor.

 He reported it to Xiao Cheng later in the evening, most likely exaggerating and describing the scene as if it were a war.

But Xiao Wei obviously didn't believe it, and followed Bai Lu to the kitchen without putting his schoolbag away: "Why didn't you tell me?"

  The question was quite serious, and the little face looked quite puzzled.

Bai Lu pinched her bald and fat face, pretended not to understand and said with a smile: "What are you telling me?"

 “What do your mother and your brother do to come to you?”

Looking at the fact that he didn’t have the answer yet, Xiao Wei couldn’t help but slap the pinching and poking hand away from his face.

But Bai Lu pressed ahead, touched his head, and gave a very perfunctory answer: "It's okay, you just came to see me, and you'll leave after you're done."

 Xiao Wei turned around and stopped touching her head.

  Put your schoolbag on the chair, wash the rice and put it into the pot. With an obviously unhappy face, you sit down in front of the stove to light the fire.

Bai Lu smiled unsympathetically: "What do you want to eat for lunch?"

The little bald man puffed his cheeks and didn't answer.

"Boiled fish or pickled fish?" Bai Lu asked and said, "When I went to let the old hens and chicks out of the cage in the morning, a big fish flew up from the river. I helped it complete the reincarnation process and become a fish. The slices are all marinated.”

As he spoke, he took out a small enamel basin from the cupboard. In the basin was marinated fish that was so fragrant and delicious.

However, Xiao Wei was attracted by her strange description and couldn't help but turn his head to take a look. He turned back immediately after being caught.

As expected, the sound of chopping vegetables was accompanied by chuckles.

"Jingle Bell-"

The chuckle was suddenly interrupted by the ringing of the phone. Both Bai Lu and Xiao Wei were stunned, looking at each other in disbelief.

“Did the phone ring just now?”

The two of them spoke at the same time, and the bell rang again: "Ding-ding-ding-"

The deafening sound penetrated the main house and rushed to the kitchen, shaking the eardrums like gongs and drums.

Xiao Wei's stunned face turned to the direction of the main room: "It seems that the phone really rang."

Bai Lu, who was holding a kitchen knife in her hand, also nodded blankly: "It sounds exactly like the ringtone of a phone."

Xiao Wei nodded in agreement with great seriousness, but looked confused and confused: "Brother only called back at night, so who is calling now?"

 “I don’t know.” Bai Lu really didn’t know.

"Jingle Bell-"

 “Dang, Dang, Dang, Dang, Dang…”

The ancient clock on the wall struck twelve. The simple and thick sound was so loud that it directly covered up the ringing of the phone at the same time, domineeringly announcing twelve o'clock on the hour.

Bai Lu finally remembered that last night, Xiao Cheng seemed to have said that he would call back at twelve o'clock. He asked her to ask Wang Hao to come over and answer the phone...but she already refused on the spot, so she had coaxed the boss!

 Why is there still a call at 12 o'clock?

 Could it be someone other than Xiao Cheng, a telephone service hotline, or an insurance advertisement?

"Should we go answer the phone?" Xiao Wei, who was brought back to his senses by the sound of the bell, made a small suggestion.

Bai Lu agreed with the suggestion: "You go ahead."

Xiao Wei quickly ran to the high table in the main room with mixed emotions of nervousness, doubts, and a little excitement.

Picked up the white phone that was still ringing.

 Say: "Hello."

  The familiar man’s voice came on the other end of the phone, and the familiar words came: “Where is Bai Lu?”

This time Xiao Wei did not have the same high expectations as the previous two times, so he was not splashed with cold water, only half of it.

 The little heart is only half cold.

 “Preparing stir-fry in the kitchen.”

"not yet eat?"

"without."

 “Call back later.”

                               

From the time he picked up the phone to the time he hung up, it took less than a minute. Xiao Wei held the phone blankly, wondering if he was hallucinating and answered a fake call.

However, the clear beeping in his ears, and the familiar low voice of the man that kept replaying in his mind, firmly told him that it was not an illusion, and the phone call was real.

 Brother really called just now!

He also said he would call back later!

Xiao Wei put the receiver back on the phone and quickly ran back to the kitchen: "Sister-in-law, brother is calling."

Bai Lu's hands shook, and she put half a spoonful of salt into the pot, closed her eyes, and took back the spoon as if nothing had happened.

 Start adding chili peppers.

 “Then why did you come back so soon?”

  Xiao Wei sat back in front of the stove, quickly stuffed firewood into the stove, and told all the contents of the conversation just now:

“The eldest brother asked you what you were doing, and I said you were cooking. The eldest brother asked if you had eaten yet, and I said no. The eldest brother said he would call back later, and the phone beeped.”

Bai Lu saw the little guy stuffing bamboo sticks into the stove hole and raised his forehead in silence. Are you so anxious?

 A delicious meal is ready in no time.

  Finished eating.

Bai Lu and Xiao Wei were sitting at the Eight Immortals table waiting for the call.

There are two hands, one big and one small, with their elbows on the table and their little hands on their chin, both staring at the high table.

Looking at the white telephone on the table.

“Your brother said before that the ship will arrive in other provinces this morning. Is he already ashore now?” Bai Lu asked the little bald man next to him when he had nothing to say.

The little bald head shook his head: "I don't know."

Bai Lu asked again: "When you were listening to the phone just now, did you hear the whistle of a ship over there?"

The little bald head shook his head: "I didn't hear it."

 “Then did you hear the worry in his voice?”

 “I can’t hear it, so I must be very anxious.”

"This...then maybe there is something important. Apart from his voice, is there any other voice on the phone?"

 “No…it seems like there is.”

Bai Lu stared at the little bald head. The little bald head immediately entered a meditative state and recalled seriously for a long time.

 Then he said: “There was a sound of wood falling to the ground.”
