Chapter 241 The Capable Liu Bai
When the man saw Liu Ci had left and more people were around, he thought about leaving. How could Su He let him go?
Su He put her hands on her hips and began to act like a drama queen.
"Ugly thing, say it again if you have the guts! You look like a squash, and you still have the nerve to say you like me. I tell you, even if all the men in Guangyuan County died, I would not fall in love with you, so just give up on this idea!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd came from all directions, smelling the scent, and soon more than twenty people gathered to point and talk.
"what are you saying?"
The man looked at Su He with some horror. He thought this guy might be crazy. What kind of friends did Liu Ci make?
"I've already told you not to bother me anymore. Even though I'm beautiful and popular, I'm not something a fool like you can dream of. I advise you to leave immediately, or I'll report you to the police!"
"You lunatic, I don't even know you!"
The man wanted to chase Liu Ci but was blocked by the two men in front of him and cursed angrily.
When he looked up again, Liu Ci had disappeared around the corner with his daughter in his arms. Seeing Su He rolling up his sleeves and preparing to hit him, he thought to himself that he should not bother with this lunatic. Besides, the man next to him was a head taller than him and didn't look like someone who was easy to mess with.
"Shrew, I have something to do today, so I won't bother with you!"
Feeling that he had regained his position, the man was about to leave when he was frightened by Su He's words and almost fell.
"What? You said you fell in love with me the first time you saw me? I'm already married and you're still thinking about me? Shame on you, Xiaobai, beat him up!"
The man looked at the tall man next to the shrew who was coming towards him with his fists waved. He ran forward without looking back and disappeared from the sight of Su He and the others in a short while.
Su He snorted coldly and left with Liu Bai.
When they returned to the house, Liu Ci and others were waiting in the kitchen as expected. Liu Ci did not look well, and he sat there in a daze, holding Jiaojiao.
"You've been waiting for a long time. It's getting late. You should go back quickly."
Su He did not mention what happened just now, but just helped them pack their luggage. It was already one o'clock in the afternoon, and it would be dark before they got home if they did not set off. Su He said hello to Liu Ci and urged them to set off.
Watching them walk away, Su He felt a little tired. She said goodbye to Liu Bai and went back to her room to sleep. She would go to Zhao's house early tomorrow morning.
When he woke up, the sky outside was already slightly yellow. Su He looked at the time and it was five o'clock.
She quickly drank some warm water and then got up.
When she opened the door, she didn't see anyone, but there was the sound of cooking in the kitchen. Su He walked over and saw that it was Xiaobai.
"Wake up, the corn cake is ready, do you want to eat it?"
It turned out to be her favorite. Su He smiled and nodded, "Yes, yes. Xiaobai, how can you be so capable?"
After flattering him, he picked up two corn cakes and cooked them on the side. After he finished eating the first one, Liu Bai brought over a bowl of fish soup.
The milky white fish soup with some green onions and tofu is particularly tempting.
Su He cheered, took the small bowl given by Liu Bai and drank a bowl of it. It tasted delicious when it went down her throat. She took another bite of tofu, which was soft and smooth. The taste was no worse than that of other foods. Su He really felt that she was very lucky. The people who bought food twice were both capable. Not to mention Liu Niang and Liu Bai, the new He Bo family was not lazy either. Each one was more diligent than the other.
"Do you want rice? I also made braised small fish."
"Want to want."
Liu Bai smiled and changed the bowl to serve Su He a bowl of rice.
In addition to five braised fish and fish soup, there was also a small vegetable dish on the table. It was enough for two people.
Only after everything was ready did Liu Bai sit down to eat.
"I've fixed the eaves for you. Go check it out before it gets dark. If there's anything wrong with it, I'll fix it."
Su He was surprised and rushed out to see without even eating. Sure enough, the eaves on the gate side extended outwards by about 30cm. The same was true for other rooms. She just slept there. How could Liu Bai have done so many things?
"Xiaobai, did you hire workers to do it?"
"No, this is simpler. I made it myself."
Su He sat back in her seat silently. She suddenly felt that she was very incompetent. Without space, she would be nothing.
"Compared to you, I feel so ordinary."
Liu Bai paused while picking up the food, looked up at Su He with some frustration, and said seriously.
"You are good, better than anyone in the village, better than you think you are."
How come this guy is so good at talking? Su He laughed.
"I'm not as good as you. I think you can live well wherever you go."
Liu Bai looked at Su He steadily, which made Su He feel a little flustered, so he withdrew his gaze.
"Let's eat. After dinner we can go shopping. I heard there is a night market here in the evening."
"Okay, I've had enough sleep anyway, so I'll go out to digest the food after dinner. Xiaobai, let's have breakfast at Chenzheng tomorrow before going to the Zhao residence."
"it is good."
Guangyuan County was also very lively at night. Su He and his companions arrived there after a ten-minute walk. There were not many people here during the day, but they did not expect there to be so many people at night.
There were the stall owners' shouts and passers-by's inquiries, and if she listened carefully, she could even hear children screaming. Su He didn't know why she suddenly felt at ease, as if wherever there were children, she would be safe.
Su He walked along the flow of people. There were stalls on both sides of the road, one next to another. There was a lamp on each stall. Ordinary stalls sold vegetables, fruits and melons. Su He saw an old woman selling apples. He lowered his head to ask the price. The apples that originally cost 6 cents each only cost 3 cents here, and they were bigger than those in the morning. Su He thought it was a good deal and decided to buy a few to eat in the next two days.
"Old man, I want 5."
Su He took out 15 copper coins and gave them to the other person, and picked five for himself.
She originally wanted to buy the whole thing, but considering that it was her first time there and it was dark, she was afraid of buying something bad, so she decided to just buy five to try.
"Xiaobai, take it, let's go back and eat."
After buying the things as usual, Su He passed them to the back and then went forward to look for treasures. In this way, he bought peaches, oranges and mulberries one after another.
There were too many fruits, and Liu Bai couldn't carry them all without a cloth bag or a bamboo basket. So Su He simply bought a basket from the stall and put all the fruits in it.
Going further inside, there was a stall that was packed with people, blocking the road. As soon as Su He saw the blind stall owner, he knew it was a fortune-telling stall.
"Girl, you will meet your ideal lover in the second half of this year. If you miss him, you will have to wait another eight years."
The girl in the green dress took a deep breath. She was already 18 years old. If she waited another eight years, she would become an old maid. She must seize the peach blossom in the second half of this year.
"Sir, how do I catch it?"
Su He saw the fortune teller chuckle, "If we are destined to meet, we will meet. When we meet, you will know. But if you are really worried, I have a peach blossom charm here. Wear it with you. It will surely make your wish come true."
Su He chuckled, and as expected, he heard the surprised voice of the girl in green in his ears, "Sir, I want one."
