Chapter 421 Back to Sweetwater Village (3)
After dinner, Lu Xiaoxiao took a hot bath and went to sleep on the kang. She felt very tired after a hard day today, so she planned not to practice tonight.
The next morning Lu Xiaoxiao got up and came to the main room. She saw that the quilt was folded on the kang and knew that Zhang Xu had left, so Lu Xiaoxiao re-burned the kang in the main room and went into the space to wash.
Lu Xiaoxiao washed up and drank a bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge in the space before leaving the space. Then she took out a box of Jingba pieces from the luggage bag, wrapped it in cloth, and went out to the captain's house.
"Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuutouto
"Xiaoxiao, are you back?" Aunt Caihua opened the door to the yard and said in surprise after seeing Lu Xiaoxiao.
"Well, I arrived yesterday afternoon." Lu Xiaoxiao replied.
"Come into the house with me, it's too cold outside, your face is turning red from the wind."
"good."
"Old man, Xiaoxiao is back." Aunt Caihua shouted into the main room before entering.
Lu Xiaoxiao followed Aunt Caihua into the main room, and saw that there was no one else in there except the captain, so she said to the captain, "Uncle, I'm back."
"Just come back." The captain said, taking a puff of tobacco.
"Xiaoxiao, you don't know. When your uncle sees that you haven't come back within the specified time, he will go to your yard every day at noon. When he sees that you haven't come back, he will be anxious. No, every day I smoke a few more lumps of Hanyan." Aunt Caihua looked at Lu Xiaoxiao and said.
"Uncle is worried, something happened in Beijing this time, so it delayed the time to come back." Lu Xiaoxiao looked at the captain apologetically and said.
"It's good that people are fine." The captain looked at Lu Xiaoxiao and said.
Lu Xiaoxiao nodded after hearing the captain's words, then opened the cloth bag in her hand, took out the Jingba pieces inside, and handed it to Aunt Caihua: "Auntie, this is the most famous pastry in Beijing, Jingba pieces. You and Uncle have a taste and see how it tastes."
Aunt Cauliflower took the Jingba piece that Lu Xiaoxiao handed over and said, "This box looks festive. You don't need to eat it to know that the taste is definitely not bad."
"Xiaoxiao, how much is a box of Beijing eight pieces?" The captain looked at Lu Xiaoxiao and asked.
"Not much money, what's the matter, Uncle?" Lu Xiaoxiao looked at the captain with a puzzled expression and asked, she didn't understand why the captain suddenly asked the price.
"We can't keep accepting the things you send, and this Jingba item doesn't look cheap, and we can't take it for nothing."
When Lu Xiaoxiao heard what the captain said, she understood what he meant, so she said: "Uncle, if you are like this, I will not dare to come to the door if I have something to do. Do you rarely help me on weekdays? Just talk about my house. If it wasn't for the three big brothers who went to help reinforce it before the snow fell, the roof of my house must have collapsed now."
The captain said after hearing Lu Xiaoxiao's words: "I will accept the things this time, and you should not do this in the future."
"Got it, Uncle."
"Xiaoxiao, you must have no food at home right now, and bring some from my house when you go back later." Aunt Caihua looked at Lu Xiaoxiao and said.
"Thank you, auntie, I really don't have any food at home."
Lu Xiaoxiao chatted with them at the captain's house for about half an hour, and she walked home with a few radishes and a cabbage in her arms.
