Doctor Xianggong, the goddess of poisonous belly

Chapter 30

Dong Nuangu looked at the mottled banyan canopy for a while, and then slowly walked towards the independent hut with the food box.

It was a kitchen. It was very clean. The stove and the floor were clean. It could be seen that the owner's house should be cleaned from time to time. There was a large pot on the stove with a lid on it. There is a wooden lid, and there is firewood burning in the stove, which seems to be burning something.

At this moment, Si Jixia was half-kneeling in front of the stove, adding firewood to the hearth. The cloak on his shoulders was untied by him and placed on a stool beside him. Without the cover of the cloak, his mutilated body could be seen Be clear.

I saw that the empty right sleeve was knotted by him, presumably for the convenience of work, the fire in the stove was very bright, reflecting his knotted sleeve and shaking with his every movement. The whole person was extremely uncoordinated, but it also reflected a slight warmth on his pale face.

Dongnuan's calm eyes dimmed again. From yesterday to now, she thought for the first time, why doesn't he have a right arm?

The firewood in the stove was burning hot, Si Jixia stood up, turned around as if he was going to get something, when he suddenly saw Dong Nuangu who was standing by the door staring at him at some time, his subconscious first reaction was to look up Grabbing his knotted right sleeve, he quickly tried to untie the knot.

It's just that he moved very hastily, as if he was very concerned about the warmth of the winter, so seeing him like this, in the light of the fire, his brows were tightly frowned, and there was a chill in his slightly drooping eyes, as well as a look of unconcealable pain.

He still hasn't been able to untie the knot that he's been pulling tighter and tighter, but he's tightening his brows even tighter, grabbing the sleeve and lowering his head, about to bite it open with his mouth——

However, just as his hand was pulling the knotted sleeve to his mouth, a slender and white hand came into his line of sight and grabbed the sleeve.

Si Jixia's body trembled suddenly, and when he raised his eyes, Dongnuangu was standing in front of him, smiling at him, then put down the food box in his hand, and slowly untied the knot for him with both hands.

Si Jixia didn't refuse, but just turned his head away, neither looking at her nor at his shriveled and wrinkled sleeve in her hand.

His left hand was tightly clenched into a fist, trembling slightly.

Didn't she turn around and leave when she saw him fetching water just now?Seeing his ugly appearance, she must be so sad and desperate that she regrets marrying him and regrets writing those four words on the wedding hall yesterday. Why does she come to this backyard again?Why dare to approach him?

No one wants to spend a lifetime with a disabled person, and she should be no different.

Si Jixia's left hand was tightly clenched, and when Dong Nuangu helped him untie the knot on his sleeve, he said thank you coldly, picked up the cloak he put on the stool beside him, and pretended to leave But Dongnuan grabbed his sleeve before him, forcing Si Jixia to stop and look at her.

Seeing Dong Nuan pointing his finger at the cauldron with a wooden lid on the stove, Si Jixia loosened his left fist a little, and said in a calm tone that seemed never to be turbulent: "It's boiling water, Miss Ah Nuan was tired yesterday, When you need a hot bath."

Dong Nuan's eyes were tightly locked on Si Jixia's pupils, as if he wanted to see his true inner thoughts through his eyes, but Si Jixia pulled his right sleeve out of her hand and said as he walked out, "Ah Nuan girl, wait a moment, I will bring the water into your room later."

After leaving the kitchen, Si Jixia put the cloak back on his shoulders. He tied the shoulder straps quickly but quickly, and his frown gradually eased, as if he could only feel at ease with this cloak.

Si Jixia dragged out a large wooden barrel that could accommodate one person from the leftmost cabin of the small building in front, dragged it into the winter warm room, and then began to fetch water for her from the kitchen at the back.

He has only one arm, and it is inconvenient to do everything, but he has no intention of asking Dong Nuan to help, so Dong Nuan just sits aside, watching him quietly, watching him is no matter how much he moves. No matter how inconvenient it was, he didn't open his mouth to let her help him. Seeing the cloak on his shoulders no matter how inconvenient he didn't intend to take it off, watching his face getting paler and his steps getting slower and slower.

He walked back and forth a total of eleven times, first carrying cold water and then hot water. When he brought hot water No. 12 times, his movements had already made Dong Nuan feel extremely strenuous. His face was pale and pale, his breathing was rapid, and even his steps were staggering.

Dong Nuan knew that his body was at its limit, so he stood up and tried to lift the wooden bucket in his hand, but Si Jixia lifted her hand before it touched the handle of the wooden bucket. The barrel shakes her off.

Most of the hot water in the bucket was spilled, it splashed on Si Jixia's hands and also on Dong Nuan Gu's hands, Dong Nuan Gu settled there, Si Jixia stared at her in a daze, then walked quickly He stepped forward and poured the water from the bucket into the bathtub, turned around and strode out of the room without even looking at her.

He didn't go back to the kitchen, but went back to the side room where he rested last night, stepped over the threshold and closed the door behind his back, leaning his back heavily on the back of the door with a "bang", his eyes closed tightly, his face as pale as paper , the lips are pale, and there are fine beads of sweat on the forehead.

His left arm hung limply like a puppet's arm with a broken string.

Dong Nuan, so apart from liking things and things related to poison, her favorite thing is to take a quiet hot bath, just like now, she sits in a big wooden barrel filled with hot water, The long hair that was tied up casually, let the long black hair spread on the water.

The water vapor from the hot water is a bit hazy, so I raised my hand to touch the edge of the wooden barrel lightly in winter, and it still feels a little rough. Looking at the color of the wooden barrel, it is very bright, and it can be seen that it has just been made and has not yet been made. Someone used it.

Dongnuan leaned against the wooden bucket and slid a little into the water. The warm water immediately overflowed to her chin, and she splashed a handful of water on her face.

A new wooden barrel specially prepared for her?

He didn't want to touch her, didn't want to have sex with her, and didn't even want to have a few words with her, but he prepared her dowry, breakfast and even a new wooden bucket for bathing, Si Jixia... What is on his mind?
The bath was warm in winter and soaked for a long time, until the water temperature gradually cooled, she got up and wiped her body and put on clean clothes. Liu Niang had prepared clothes of happy colors for her, but she still chose plain blue clothes He turned around to find a dry cotton towel to wipe his hair, and found that there was an extra wooden shelf next to the low cabinet beside the bed, and there were two clean cotton towels hanging on the shelf. Dong Nuan walked up and pulled one of them. It's new, and you can smell the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus faintly. I don't think anyone has used it before, so I use it to wipe my long wet hair with confidence because of the warmth in winter.

Dong Nuangu opened the door while wiping her hair. When she stepped out of the threshold, she saw Si Jixia coming out of the room on the far right of the small building with a bamboo basket on her left shoulder. Si Jixia naturally saw her, but didn't He looked at her more and said indifferently: "Miss Ah Nuan, sit down first, I will bring out the water later."
