Chapter 15 Dad Bai Lie (4)
“Is this for me?”
It feels like the last time I saw such normal eating was a lifetime ago. Shuyue tried her best to tighten her face and act reserved, but only she knew the saliva that was constantly secreting.
“Yeah, eat it quickly, it’s still warm, it’s delicious while it’s hot!”
Bai Lie took out a crumpled fifty-cent note, straightened it, and stuffed it into Shuyue's pocket, "Put it on you and use it as pocket change."
Bai Lie wanted to pay more now, but he was short of money. He lay back and rested his hands on his hands, smiling at the corner of his mouth.
“The nearest supply and sales point is in the village next door. Although we don’t have one in our village, we still can’t do it without carrying some money in our pockets. We never know when we’ll need it!
Dad used to live on his own and couldn’t keep the money he had.
From now on, all our money will be left to your daughter to take care of. If you save it secretly, don’t call it your boss. They will know about it. When the time comes, they will buy you food, clothing, and entertainment. You can spend it however you want.
It’s getting colder now, so I have to make a new cotton coat for Xiao Yue’er…”
Bai Lie was chattering, his clear voice slowly getting lower and lower.
Shu Yue lowered her eyes and looked at the rice cake weighing half a kilogram in her hand, but her peripheral vision fell on the young man's trousers. There were two layers of patches on the knees, the trouser legs were frayed, and the socks on his feet exposed two big toe…
Shuyue's long and soft eyelashes trembled slightly, she slowly took a bite of the rice cake, chewed it carefully, and savored the taste bit by bit.
It was obviously a sweet taste, but she felt a bit sour in her heart. -
At this time, Bai Lie had already fallen asleep, and his cold and hard features had returned to a bit of aloofness. His eyes were black and there was stubble on his chin. He could fall asleep just by talking to himself. He was obviously tired.
This is my father!
This man, as a father, was willing to keep the duck eggs for himself when he was hungry and cold, brought himself rice cakes, put the money he earned into a small treasury for himself, and said that he would dry sweet potatoes for himself and give them to himself. Making new cotton-padded clothes and saying she can stop drinking...
These were enough to calm Shuyue's heart, which had been wandering and uncertain since she came across time and space. She gently took off Bai Lie's straw sandals and covered him with a quilt.
Then he swallowed the kang slowly, carrying his aluminum kettle and the enamel teapot, to the stove.
Because they were worried about rain, the village was busy harvesting all night. Uncle Bai, aunt and uncle Bai were still in the fields, and only the old lady and a few grandchildren were left at home.
Shu Yue thought that there was no one in the kitchen, but she didn't expect that the door of the kitchen was closed at this time. Through the crack of the wooden door of the kitchen, she could see the light of the fire there. She pushed it open, then knocked again. After knocking, there was movement inside.
“Why be in a hurry? Just hurry up and be reincarnated. It’ll be over in a moment.”
is the voice of the old lady.
Shuyue was stunned.
Grandma, who has always been gentle and gentle, is not used to such a rough painting style all of a sudden.
Shu Yue puffed up her cheeks and knocked again. The old lady cursed and the kitchen door was opened.
The most fearful thing is that the air suddenly becomes quiet.
Seeing that it was Shuyue, the old lady was not sure who she was scolding, so she choked back everything at once, calmed down a bit, and her expression softened.
“Hey, it’s Yue girl!
Hey, why are you running here so late at night?
How dangerous!
Don't drop it.
You're a fool, if your pretty little face falls, it will be disfigured.
When your father comes back, don't worry about me.
Let's go, I'll take you back...
Don't be afraid, I'm scolding your two careless brothers. I'm usually very gentle and gentle. "
