Heng Qiao looked slightly proud, "I learned it by reading books myself."

"Do you like reading?" Lu Yu lowered his head and pushed aside the grass, found a mountain thorn tree, avoided the burrs, split the branches and leaves, and dug out its roots.

"I like it," Hengqiao took Shanma Ling from his hand and said smoothly, "I like reading very much, but I just don't have the conditions to continue studying. Otherwise, I would be like you and get into college."

She asked Lu Yu to pick up all the branches, leaves and berries, and they went down the mountain together.

The mountain road was steep and Heng Qiao was not familiar with the road conditions. Suddenly his feet slipped and he fell backwards. Lu Yu hugged him from behind.

"Be careful!" He hugged her, touched her soft part with his hand, and quickly let go.

Hengqiao had never been hugged like this in her previous life. She was quite panicked, but pretended to be calm: "This damn ground is too slippery!"

Lu Yu walked in front of her, turned around and held her hand, carefully going down the mountain.

"It's easier to go up the mountain than to go down the mountain."

"yes."

When he spoke, he seemed to have no intention of his own, but Hengqiao felt the sweat on his palms. She secretly wondered, did he not regard her as an ugly girl as a young girl, or was he pretending to be calm like herself?

After returning, Lu Yu found a beating bowl for her, and together with her, they pounded the roots and berries of Shanma Ling and wrapped them in a piece of gauze.

Zhaodi lay down, and Hengqiao opened her clothes to check. There were some bruises where Wang Da Lezi kicked her. She secretly gritted her teeth, this damn bastard must be taught a lesson!

"Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt." Zhaodi shook his head.

Hengqiao applied medicine on her, guessing that the child was enduring the pain, so she gently touched her hair and rubbed her cheek.

"Sister, I'll be fine tomorrow." Zhaodi yawned and closed his eyes.

It was late at night, and his mother and sisters were already asleep. Hengqiao asked Uncle Qi and Aunt Qi to discuss making steamed buns and snacks. Aunt Qi asked Hengqiao what he needed, and she gave it to her on credit first.

Hengqiao thought for a while and changed the recipe for making porridge tomorrow. She bought a pack of ebony plums in the town today and made ebony plum porridge tomorrow. In addition, she bought yeast and flour in the town today. She saw ten items on the kitchen floor.

I bought some pumpkins and asked Aunt Qi if she had any glutinous rice flour.

"Yes, the powder was ground fresh yesterday. How much do you want?"

"First weigh me five kilograms of glutinous rice flour, one kilogram of sugar, one pot of vegetable oil, one can of red bean paste, and one pumpkin."

"Don't worry about the pumpkin. I'll give you one first."

"No, no, no, in business, raw materials have to be paid for." Heng Qiao shook his head and took a piece of paper to write down the accounts.

"Seventh Aunt, I have recorded it all. I will definitely pay it back as soon as possible." Hengqiao put on her apron, rolled up her sleeves, and started working quickly. Even if the business is not good tomorrow, she will work for the Lu family in the future.

The credit will be paid tonight.

The seventh uncle and the seventh aunt are also hard-working people. One boils water in a pot, and the other cuts pumpkins and puts them in the steamer. The three of them were busy until midnight, and several baskets of delicious pumpkin cakes were ready!

"Hurry up and take a nap for a while. Get up at 5:30 and set out to sell cakes!" Aunt Qi quickly packed up the stove.

Hengqiao was also sleepy, so she and Aunt Qi borrowed an alarm clock, set it, and went back to the room to rest.

It rained in the middle of the night, and the wind and rain outside were very strong. Hengqiao closed her eyes, listened to the sound of wind and rain, and tossed and turned on the bamboo bed for a while. In her mind, she kept repeating that Lu Yu hugged her and walked down the mountain hand in hand with her.

scene.

There was a faint scent of him on Lu Yu's shirt, which made her a little distracted. After taking a deep breath, she closed her eyes and fell asleep unconsciously.
