Nine Zero, the cannon fodder wife of the paranoid boss is reborn

The maltose made by my grandfather has a very high concentration and is very viscous. It needs to be diluted with water before it can be used to roast chestnuts.

Yesterday, Bai Lu went shopping for groceries and met an old man selling maltose at the market, so she specially asked him to keep it.

I went to buy groceries this morning and waited for a while before I waited.

Water has been added to the pot, and the maltose was added after the water was heated. Not all the white dew was poured out, but just over a pound. After all, the maltose cannot be brewed in one go.

It doesn’t take that much to fry a round of chestnuts.

She held the spatula while stirring the undissolved sugar and water, and occasionally glanced at the man who was silently lighting the fire.

The outline of his handsome face under the red firelight was less cold and more three-dimensional with sharp edges. Even his indifferent lips were pursed in an extraordinarily sexy way. After recovering from the laceration, his whole face was as handsome as a mess.

"It's so beautiful..."

The man raised his eyes upon hearing the sound.

Bai Lu quickly retracted her gaze and coughed: "Well, I mean, this maltose is so fragrant. It's so sweet after adding water. You can smell it even if you don't drink it... It's much better than boiling white sugar to make it dilute. Roasting chestnuts with sugar is just like that.

You should add this sugar to dilute it, it will taste great..."

Xiao Cheng looked at her reddish cheeks, her hands moving in different directions, and deliberately stared at the spatula in her eyes.

He opened his mouth with a deep and mellow voice: "It's quite sweet."

Bai Lu felt her face getting hotter, she turned around and smiled, "Yeah, I think so too."

"Don't you like drinking sugar water very much? After the sugar syrup is boiled, can I make you a cup of maltose water?"

"No need." Xiao Cheng refused.

"I want it!" Bai Lu was afraid that he would be embarrassed: "You are so busy and you help me light the fire. If you don't drink sugar water, you have to eat two pieces of candy. Otherwise, you won't have the strength to work in the afternoon."

Even the reasons have been found.

Xiao Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly, said nothing, picked up a piece of wood as thick as an arm, and held one end in each hand.

There was a "click" and it broke into two pieces.

Slowly stuff it into the stove hole, and soon you can hear the sound of crackling sparks.

Bai Lu knew that he had the strength to work.

But last night, he drank the maltose water in several gulps, and he obviously liked it very much!

Could it be that you prefer eating roasted chestnuts with sugar now?

After all, he ate faster than he drank sugar water in the morning, swallowing the jujube in one gulp, and she even suspected that he hadn't chewed it.

The more Bai Lu thought about it, the more she felt she had found the truth. There were still some chestnuts roasted in the morning. After boiling the syrup, she put them all in his pocket and asked him to take them to work.

Xiao Cheng didn't know what Bai Lu was thinking, he just thought her eyes were too friendly.

It was hard for him to resist.

"The house next door can be built in less than a month," he said.

"Fifth Aunt's house." Bai Lu reminded tactfully, with a smile on her face, as warm and soft as the sun.

Xiao Cheng glanced at her and was silent for a moment.

She opened her thin lips lightly and read out the name of the first neighbor in her life who not only had a name but also a code name——

"Fifth Aunt."

Except for Xiao Dazhuang, Luo Shiliu, their family members, and Lao Hu, Xiao Cheng rarely interacted with outsiders.

Coupled with his taciturn and aloof personality, communication with neighbors is rare and almost non-existent.

Bai Lu felt that he was really great at being able to say the word "Fifth Aunt" even if he didn't want to. She raised her hand and took out a maltose candy from the bucket, and brought it to his mouth with her own hands: "Here you go."

“Very sweet!”

Xiao Cheng: "..."

He wanted to take back those two words.

He's not a three-year-old, so what kind of reward do he want?

In addition to sweetness, maltose is also sweet...

Bai Lu put the sugar into his mouth, then retracted her hand and continued to stir the half-dissolved maltose in the pot.

"It can be built in less than a month. It's so fast. Did you find more people to build the house?"

In the morning, she saw six or seven new faces, and they all called her sister-in-law along with Luo Shiliu and the others.

They must have known each other before.

Xiao Cheng chewed the maltose randomly, swallowed it, and nodded lightly: "The fifth aunt hopes to close the house as soon as possible."

The more people we have, the faster we can build.

What Bai Lu was worried about was whether Xiao Cheng would want to collect Li Chengbin's account again if it was completed so quickly.

In the previous life, Xiao Cheng, Luo Shiliu, Xiao Dazhuang, and Wang Hao did go to Li Chengbin's house the night before yesterday.

But Li Chengbin was not at home at that time, only his wife Sun Huiping and his ten-year-old son were at home.

Wang Hao asked Sun Huiping where Li Chengbin was, but Sun Huiping said she didn't know and had not come back.

Xiao Cheng and others waited for five minutes and then left.

During the whole process, I didn't even step foot inside Li Chengbin's house. I even asked questions outside, through the big iron gate.

Before leaving, Sun Huiping and her son were fine, but the next day, news of the accident came.

The ten-year-old son is fine, but Li Chengbin and Sun Huiping were both shot and are lying in the hospital.

Xiao Cheng and Luo Shiliu and others became scapegoats.

Sparks began to fly over the territory between the big boss and Li Chengbin, which gradually turned into a gang war.

The big boss thought he had thrown away the chess piece Xiao Cheng, but little did he know that everything played into the hands of Li Chengbin, his father-in-law, who wanted to get rid of Xiao Cheng and cut off the big boss's right and left arm.

The trajectory of this world has changed.

Li Chengbin and Sun Huiping were still shot and are still lying in the hospital, but Xiao Cheng is safe and sound. Li Chengbin's father-in-law will definitely not give up before he achieves his goal.

Of course he knew it was not Xiao Cheng's fault, but the power of the big boss was too great and complicated.

Even though he was the deputy of Nanshi City, he still had to consider his approach, so he had no choice but to use Xiao Cheng first.

I don’t know how many tricks were planned in the dark, waiting for Xiao Cheng to step on it, Li Chengbin’s account was simply a dead account.

Bai Lu will not let Xiao Cheng touch it again.

"Then after you build the house, you can have a good rest for a while." She seemed to sigh casually.

In fact, Xiao Cheng also had a private order, which was asked by a local snake in Nanshi to collect it, directly bypassing the big boss.

Collect a debt of 300,000 yuan, and get a commission of 5 points.

The debtor is the owner of the Longcheng Song and Dance Hall next door. Luo Shiliu has investigated it and found that there is no big problem.

I was working under a big boss before, so I had some scruples and didn't take the job.

After the shotgun incident, he was shaken.

He didn't want to tell Bai Lu, but he remembered the last time she was angry for a long time and what she said...

"Knock knock knock——"

A knock on the door interrupted Xiao Cheng and Bai Lu's thoughts.

Xiao Wei, who was blowing bubble gum in the room, ran to open the door. It was the fifth aunt, Wen Xiuyun.

Wen Xiuyun came to see Bai Lu.

After coming here a few times, I became familiar with it. When I saw Xiao Cheng walking out, I smiled and said hello.

Xiao Cheng nodded slightly and went out.

The start time is coming soon.

Bailu's maltose syrup is also ready.

The sweet fragrance wafted outside, and Wen Xiuyun sat in the yard and waited without entering the kitchen.

Xiao Wei went to the kitchen to talk to Bai Lu, then ran back to the room to play with bubble gum stickers.

Bai Lu quickly packed up her things and came out.

Wen Xiuyun couldn't wait to explain her purpose: "All the sugar-roasted chestnuts are sold out, and there are really not enough left. Many people haven't bought any, and they keep asking me if there are any more."
