90s, The Cannon Fodder Wife of the Paranoid Boss is Reborn

Chapter 71 Love the House and the Crow

 The boss just wants to go down to the river to catch bamboo.

The water in the river is not deep, less than one meter, and it is crystal clear. Once you step on it, the mud at the bottom of the river is not shallow, reaching up to your knees. The water level reaches up to your long and powerful thighs.

As the mud sinks down, the black pants rolled up to the crotch will be soaked until half an index finger's distance away.

Xiao Cheng, however, looked calm and calm as water. He walked upstream in a leisurely manner. The countercurrent water separated from his legs and slowly dispersed to both sides, completely calm and without any ripples.

Bai Lu breathed a sigh of relief, hugged the black coat he took off, and hung it on the fence beside the vegetable garden.

 Then, he used the hatchet that Xiao Wei brought back to the kitchen to split open the small bamboo whip that tied the bamboo on the ground.

 Pick up five or six bamboos and swim upstream.

Xiao Wei also followed behind, dragging three bamboos.

 Long bamboo and flowering bamboo that are naturally dried are heavier than dried bamboo that is damaged by disease or ant colonies, and are thicker inside and outside. When inserted into water, they are less likely to be soaked by water and rot.

 Xiao Cheng took the dried bamboo from Bai Lu and raised his eyebrows in surprise. She actually knew how to pick bamboo...

As the bamboos were inserted into the water one by one, the water flow obviously began to slow down, but it did not stop. There were tiny gaps between the bamboos, and no matter how slow the flow was, it would not become stagnant water.

It took half the bamboo to intercept the upper reaches.

When he reached the lower reaches, Xiao Cheng kept walking down the river and walked more than 20 meters through the center of the vegetable garden without stopping.

It seems that he wants to intercept a longer distance, but a short distance further down is the backyard of Wang Cuihua's house.

 There is also this small river right across from Wang Cuihua’s backyard.

"We can finish it here. If we go further down, we will find someone else's backyard." Bai Lu was too lazy to stare at Wang Cuihua again, acting back and forth, which was troublesome.

Xiao Wei thought she had misunderstood something, and explained: "The river belongs to the public, not anyone else's territory. We can encircle it a little longer, and she won't stop big brother."

 Of course she will not stop "Brother Xiao Cheng."

 She wished that "Brother Xiao Cheng" would come around.

Bai Lu rolled her eyes inwardly.

Xiao Cheng saw a slight displeasure on her eyebrows, took a few steps back, and said to Xiao Wei: "Bring me some bamboo."

 Xiao Wei was dumbfounded.

　　Looked at Bai Lu standing by the river holding a bamboo in her hands, and then looked at her empty hands.

 Brother, why don’t you ask Bai Lu for bamboo?

Just now, Bai Lu said that the bamboo was too heavy and he didn’t need to move it. As soon as he moved it, Bai Lu snatched it away.

 Now, the eldest brother suddenly asked him for bamboo?

Xiao Wei ran back with questions in his mind, and with all his strength, he dragged five bamboos over.

When they arrived, they found that the elder brother had already taken the bamboo from Bai Lu's hand and was inserting it steadily into the river.

  Xiao Wei: “…”

 So, the bamboo in his hand...

"Give it to me." Bai Lu took it with a smile and said softly: "You have a rest, there aren't many bamboos left, I'll just go and get it."

Xiao Wei glanced at his eldest brother's cold face and felt that it would be better to be more diligent.

“It’s okay, I can still get it.”

　　After saying that, he ran back as fast as lightning.

 When I came back, I dragged five more large bamboos.

Bai Lu took the bamboo in a daze, and the little figure ran back again, as fast as lightning.

However, this little lightning was disturbed by the weeds by the fence and almost fell down.

The left and right legs walked like drunken steps, bumping against each other for a few times, then returning to normal and continuing to run to move the bamboo.

A smart smile flashed across Bai Lu's eyes, and she turned around and handed the bamboo to Xiao Cheng: "Xiaowei is so well-behaved and diligent. He already knows how to do a lot of things for us at the age of seven." Xiao Cheng took the bamboo hand and paused.

Slightly raised her eyes, her clear and clean eyes were still pure, without any turbidity or impurities, as if they were just compliments without any other meaning.

 Xiao Cheng narrowed his eyes, took the bamboo, remained silent, and continued to insert bamboo into the river.

 The water in the river was stirred up by the excessive force of the bamboo, creating some waves and crashing onto the river bank.

It's like a dead relationship, thinking that it can be repaired with just a few bamboos, but it's not that easy.

Bai Lu sighed.

 Turn around and go back to move bamboo with Xiao Wei.

 After planting bamboos upstream and downstream, the distance is probably tens of meters. Now, not only is there enough space for the snails to live, but also fish can be put down to raise them.

Bai Lu happily washed her hands, but when she raised her eyes, she saw that the boss was destroying the flower with his hands.

 “Wait a minute, that seems to be a pink rose.”

There are several lush bushes of wild roses across the river. They have not bloomed yet, but they have already bloomed a lot of buds. As expected, they will bloom together with the chestnuts next month.

At this moment, Xiao Cheng, who was still standing in the water on the bank of the river, took a hatchet at some point and was about to use his fine-textured forearm to strike at the roots of the wild rose.

Hearing Bai Lu's words, he stopped for a moment.

 Looking back, he looked at her with indifferent eyes without any emotion, and said lightly: "Like it?"

Bai Lu hesitated for a moment and nodded: "The pink rose is very beautiful when it blooms. It has already bloomed. It will bloom next month at the most, and it will not bloom later than next month. When the pink rose blooms, cut some and put them in the vase. , put it in the house to make the air fresher, and the light fragrance can fill the whole yard. "

 Xiao Cheng looked at her without saying anything.

After what happened with the bamboo, Xiao Wei didn't want to talk anymore, but thinking about the last time Bai Lu was frightened and jumped, he hesitated and reminded him: "The flower bushes are too dense, and it is easy to hide snakes and insects. "

“It’s okay if the flowers grow on the opposite side. Now there are bamboos planted in the river. Soon, the flower branches will crawl along the bamboos and grow into the vegetable garden..."

 Vegetable gardens may hide snakes.

There is no need for Xiao Wei to say anything else. The insteps of Bailu's feet have already begun to feel cold, and the hairs all over his body have stood up.

 Shaking his head subconsciously: "No, no, no."

"There are many beautiful and fragrant flowers in the world. The rapeseed flowers in the vegetable garden are also very beautiful and fragrant when they bloom. Soon the broccoli and chestnut flowers will bloom even more beautifully. You can see them when you open the window, not the roses. ”

“After cutting the snails, I put some salt in them. All the sediment should be spit out now. I have to go back and clean the snails. Let’s go back quickly.”

Bai Lu didn't want to stay any longer. She rubbed her goosebumped arms with both hands and turned around to leave.

 Haven’t any nostalgia for pink roses.

 In fact, just now, she was just homesick for seeing things.

I just thought of the beautiful wall of pink roses in my grandma’s vegetable garden.

　　Remembering when she was a child, her mother asked her to stand in front of the rose flower wall, and they took many happy photos together.

There are no snakes or pests in my grandma’s rose wall. There should be measures to repel snakes and pests.

The river here is too long and flows through the entire town. It can drive away the family above but not the family below.

 Forget it...I can’t go back anyway.

 Flowers, don’t even look at them.

Xiao Cheng looked at the girl's hurried away figure, a flash of deep thought flashed in his eyes, and put away the hatchet beside the flower root.

 “Go to the utility room and get snake repellent powder.”

  Xiao Wei was assigned another task.
