Chapter 98 Dream

The bustle outside the door is extraordinary, and the inside is no less.

The ten butterboys all used their housekeeping skills, serving tea and water around Mrs. Lichun, beating their backs and shoulders.

This one took Madam's hand, and said softly with a nasal voice: "Do you think this Cordyceps is very good, especially suitable for buying back for nourishment?"

That one tilted his head again, trying to shrink his 1.8-meter height to his wife's shoulders and coquettishly said: "Look at this one of mine, obviously mine is bigger and better~~~"

Xiaoruo couldn't bear to look at it, and asked them to work hard to sell it. I didn't expect them to work so hard!

She felt that her goosebumps were about to be aroused by their efforts, and she saluted these handsome men in unison.

But Mrs. Lichun obviously liked this, her face was smiling like a trumpet flower, and her red lips painted with Zhu Dan never closed for a moment.

Yingyingyanyan was surrounded by the madam, and even the two maids were squeezed to the periphery, not to mention the oil-faced clay figurine and the cage-carrying boy.

The oil-faced clay figurines glared fiercely at the creamy little students, and tried to squeeze in several times, but were pushed out without a trace by these beautiful men. In the panic, they didn't know who stepped on them a few times. A dusty shoe print.

"Don't waste your time, madam is so interested to see how madam punishes you!" Jiu'er looked at him with cold eyes and lowered his voice to remind him.

This guy wants to kill himself, but don't pull them as a backstop, no one can escape when Madam gets angry.

Not daring to contradict Jiu'er, the oil-faced clay figurine could only throw fire at the cage-carrying boy in the end: "I've been carrying a broken bird cage in a lifeless manner all day, no wonder my wife doesn't like to talk to you!"

The young man looked up at him, then lowered his head to look at the ground in front of him, like a pool of stagnant water without any waves.

Hitting the cotton with a fist, the oil-faced clay figurine became even more angry. He gritted his molars and said, "Don't think that you can be defiant because Madam dotes on you. I have served Madam for so many years..."

Before he finished speaking, Jiu'er rolled his eyes at him impatiently, and said, "I'm not capable and I'm blaming others. If you keep talking too much, I'll tell my wife that you're bullying Mr. Wen in private!"

The oil-faced clay figurine that choked on a word stopped talking, and after a while he muttered to himself: "A counterfeit..."

The boy just raised his eyes for a moment, and Xiaoxun had a panoramic view of his face.

A round oval face is embedded with a pointed and upturned nose, the tip of the nose is full of meat, and the eyes are slender and deep like an ancient well. There is only a mole at the corner of the eye, which reveals a little playful vitality.

This face... An inexplicable strange feeling suddenly rose in Xiao Xun's heart, and this feeling that he couldn't find drove him to walk straight towards the boy.

The black soap boots broke into the ground in front of the boy's eyes, his drooping eyelids climbed up the boots, and finally fixed at the angle of looking up.

Xiaoxun was nearly two heads taller than him.

Glancing at the face of the owner of the boots, the young man returned to his old state, lowering his head and eyes, silent like an old monk in meditation.

"You... have we met?" The distance between the two was only one step, and Xiao Xun could only see the top of the young man's black hair.

silence.

"Do you know me?" Xiao Xun asked again.

Still silent.

The oil-faced clay figurine next to him glanced at him, rolled his eyes and said, "He wouldn't talk until it was dark. If I hadn't heard him speak before, I would have thought he was dumb."

His yin and yang strangeness did not receive any response, the young man remained silent, Xiao Xun also fell silent standing in front of the young man, and the two maidservants didn't want to argue at all, and just pretended they didn't hear it.

The muscles on the oily clay figurine's face twisted and twitched again, and the thick powder almost cracked the tortoise shell pattern.

Xiao Ruo couldn't get in the way when there was a creamy young boy entertaining distinguished guests, so the handsome salesman simply let the handsome salesman do it himself. She beckoned Mao the shopkeeper to replace her as an escort, and then quietly exited the showroom.

Outside the exhibition hall, Xiaoxun, the cage-carrying boy, the oil-faced clay figurine, and two maidservants stood in an acute triangle. Xiaoruo called "Axun" to break the strange scene.

Xiaoxun turned his head to see that it was Xiaoruo who came out, and came to her side in a few big strides, building an awning with his hands to shield her from the fiercer scorching sun.

"It's okay, I'm not hot." Xiaoruo took the big hand above his forehead and put his hand down. "What were you talking about just now?"

It was rare to see Xiaoxun chatting with others, and she couldn't help being curious.

Xiao Xun turned his head to look at the young man, and quickly searched through his mind with half-closed eyes, to make sure that he could not remember whether he had seen the young man.

"Seeing that he looks familiar, I asked a few words." He withdrew his gaze and returned his attention to Xiaoruo. "Isn't it over yet? I promised you to make cold cakes for her at noon."

"Soon?" Thinking of Xiaoxun's craftsmanship, Xiaoruo couldn't help swallowing, she looked inside the door, and saw that the handsome salesmen were still working hard to earn commissions. "Well, I don't really have anything to do next, we can go first."

It's been a long time since she had eaten a serious dish cooked by Xiaoxun, it's weird.

Xiaoruo, who was very active, immediately waved to the clerk who was guarding the door of the exhibition hall. The clerk trotted a few steps to Xiaoruo, and asked respectfully, "What is Miss Xiao's order?"

"You tell the other shopkeepers that my family has gone back beforehand. If you have any problems, just come to my house and find me."

Now go back and prepare lunch is the biggest thing.

"Hey! Okay! Miss Xiao, go slowly!"

After watching Xiao Ruo Xiaoxun walk out of the Chamber of Commerce gate, the assistant hurried back to the entrance of the exhibition hall to be on standby at any time.The shopkeeper can tell you, if you do well today, your monthly payment will be doubled this month!

After leaving the Chamber of Commerce compound, the two walked along Mao'er Lane, picking up the shadows.

Although Xiaoruo is not afraid of heat, she also doesn't want to get tanned.

Speaking of which, there seems to be no sunscreen in this world... I have to go back and ask the old man if there are any medicinal materials that can be used for sun protection, maybe I can develop it and make some money.

Xiao Ruo didn't notice Xiao Xun's extraordinarily silent journey along the way, as the little abacus in his heart was pounding loudly.

Back home, the little greedy cat has already moved a small stool to the door of the stove, waiting for Xiaoxun to come back to fulfill her promise to make cold cakes for her.

Adjust the rice milk, boil water, the white tender and smooth rice milk is completely cooked, pour it into a bowl to cool, then pour a spoonful of sweet brown syrup, and the sweet and cool rice cake is complete.

After frying some seasonal vegetables, the family sat in the shade of the grape rack and finished their lunch.

After the meal, the young and old were sent to take a nap, and Xiaoruo and Xiaoxun cleaned up the dishes together.

Picking up a bowl, paused for three seconds, put away the chopsticks, and paused for another three seconds, Xiaoruo couldn't stand it anymore and took the last bowl in Xiaoxun's hand, saying: "Ah Xun, you should go to take a nap too, last night If you haven’t slept well, you need to catch up.”

Seeing the two dark circles under the eyes, Xiaoruo felt distressed.

Xiaoxun reacted slowly for a while before saying yes.Insisting on washing the last mouthful of dishes and putting them in the cupboard, he slowly returned to his room under Xiaoruo's worried eyes, and took a rare afternoon nap.

Lying on the bed, Xiaoxun felt that he had entered another world very quickly, and he clearly knew that he must be asleep and dreaming.

In the dream, the world he lived in was shrouded in thick fog. He walked through the thick fog, but no matter how he ran, he couldn't reach the end of the dream.

Just as he couldn't run any longer, he bent his hands on his knees and gasped for breath, suddenly a very small voice came from behind him.

"Do you want this?"

He suddenly turned his head, and a thin boy with big head was curled up on the ground, looking up at him, and the boy handed him a thin wire.

"Do you want this?" The boy opened and closed his bloodless little mouth, and there was a mole in the corner of his slender eye.
