A handle of the car was broken, so Bai Banxia took it to the blacksmith shop and asked the boss to help repair it.
"I heard someone said that there is a Baijia pancake with particularly delicious fruit, so I guessed it was you. You look like a happy girl, and you will be blessed at first glance. You will definitely make money from your business." The boss said with a smile, "I also
I said I wanted to see how this iron pan works, but I didn’t take the time."
"We'll see tomorrow. I can't do it today, otherwise I'll give you a demonstration directly." Bai Banxia said helplessly.
The boss guessed what was going on when he saw this posture, and said in a low voice: "Our county magistrate is fair and honest. We do not allow bullying of business people by charging protection fees. If someone bullies you, just go to the Yamen and report it."
"Thank you boss for reminding me."
The car was not seriously damaged and was repaired quickly. Bai Banxia thanked the boss, pushed the car and left with his parents.
However, this incident did not affect the family's mood much, because they had already discussed it on the way here. After finishing the business today, they would go to the market to buy some meat. Her family was in charge of dinner tonight, and she planned to serve meat to everyone.
"It's been a long time since I've eaten meat." Zhang Lingzhi gulped when she looked at the raw meat. Bai Banxia couldn't help but snicker. Mom is definitely a foodie.
When they asked about the price of meat, their faces dropped. Meat was really expensive!
"It's okay, let's buy some big bones and make soup. I have a way to make meat dishes again without spending too much money." Bai Banxia winked at her father, "It's just that dad has to work harder."
"Why worry about hard work if you can eat meat? Does your father look like a lazy man?" Bai Tian said arrogantly.
"It definitely doesn't look like it. Let's make an agreement and you won't refuse later." Bai Banxia said again.
Bai Tian nodded vigorously, but why did he look at his daughter with strange eyes? Why did he feel like she was digging a hole waiting for him to jump?
When Bai Tian was carrying the pig intestines, he finally realized that he was not delusional.
"Dad, don't dislike it. It's troublesome to wash this thing. Just work harder and wash it clean. Make sure you eat delicious food at night." Bai Banxia said with a smile.
Zhang Lingzhi ducked to the side, "Her father, I'll leave it to you. You should carry it carefully so it doesn't get on your clothes. It smells bad."
Bai Tian wanted to cry but had no tears. He felt abandoned by his wife.
Later, Bai Banxia said that he was going to get some medicine for his aunt, so Bai Tian led him to a small, remote pharmacy. Only then did Bai Banxia find out that there was a pharmacy in town that specialized in selling medicine to the poor, and the prices were more reasonable.
When I saw a grocery store on the road, Zhang Lingzhi also said to buy some brown sugar, and Bai Banxia praised her mother, who was sometimes attentive.
It was just after noon when the family of three returned to Baoshan Village. Almost everyone in the village had two meals, and they were either resting or busy with some chores.
As soon as the three of them entered the door, Mrs. Bai came over to greet them and asked happily: "Did you make money today?"
Before Bai Banxia and the others could answer, she saw with sharp eyes that the pot was dirty and the handlebars had been repaired. She hurriedly asked: "What is this? Are you being bullied?"
Bai Banxia took a look at her uncle's house and said with a smile: "It's okay. Everything that should be sold is sold out. I made some money. Let's eat meat tonight."
The old lady breathed a sigh of relief, but soon complained, "You're so bad at living. You only earn a few copper coins and you eat meat. How do you save money like this?"
Bai Banxia took out two coins and stuffed them into her hand, "Be good, buy some candies."
"My teeth are about to fall out, why can't I eat candy?" the old lady yelled, but she still put the copper plate in her arms and went to collect the soles of her shoes.
Mrs. Li heard a commotion in the house and wanted to come out and ask a few questions. She hesitated and walked around the house twice. As a result, Bai Banxia and her family were busy, and she didn't know what to say.
Unexpectedly, after a while, there was a knock on the door. She opened the door and saw Zhang Lingzhi standing at the door with a bowl, which was still steaming.
"Sister-in-law, Banxia asked you to drink this bowl of brown sugar water first. She is boiling the medicine and will bring it to you later." Zhang Lingzhi was actually a little afraid of this sister-in-law and did not dare to enter the house casually while standing at the door.
Mrs. Li was stunned. When she saw that the bowl was filled with hot brown sugar water, there was also a poached egg in it.
What happened today? Why are her eyes so hot again?
"Ouch, hot, hot, hot!" Zhang Lingzhi couldn't help but screamed.
Mrs. Li came to her senses, wanted to take it but was afraid of hitting the bowl, so she quickly stepped aside and said: "Put it on the table quickly, don't burn your hands."
Zhang Lingzhi rushed into the room and put the bowl on the table. He pinched his earlobes with both hands, exhaled loudly, then brought his hand to his mouth and blew hard several times.
"Pfft." Mrs. Li couldn't help laughing, "It's not burned, is it?"
Zhang Lingzhi hadn't seen her sister-in-law smile at her for a long time. She felt instantly better and said naively: "It's okay. I'm thick-skinned and thick-bodied. You can drink it while it's hot. No, you'd better blow on it and don't burn your mouth."
"Okay, thank you."
Such a fuss made Ms. Li relax. She thanked her generously, took a spoon, scooped up the brown sugar water, blew on it and drank it.
The kneaded coarse grain dough was once again placed in the stone basin in the kitchen, and the mung beans were also ground.
Bai Banxia didn't know what to say for a while and quickly returned to the house.
"Let me see your wound." She said to Qi Zhen.
"Your father told me last night that there are differences between men and women. I can't take off my clothes in front of you, and I can't let you take off my clothes," Qi Zhen said seriously.
Bai Banxia covered her forehead. What was wrong with her father? Why did she take off other people's clothes?
"I am the doctor and you are the patient. Let me see what's wrong with your wound? Are you going to stop changing the dressing?" she asked helplessly.
"Your father said he would come." Qi Zhen covered his collar and looked determined not to obey.
Unexpectedly, a silver needle suddenly appeared between Bai Banxia's fingers and pierced his hand violently. Qi Zhen's hand was pulled away as soon as it went numb, and his collar was torn open, revealing the wound inside.
Seeing that the wound was fine, Bai Banxia breathed a sigh of relief.
"I asked you to stop working now. I won't say you are lazy if you take a rest. If your wound breaks again, I will have to treat you again." She complained.
The numbness in Qi Zhen's hand quickly passed, he pulled up his clothes and said, "I only used my other hand, it's okay."
"Okay, you are awesome, then why didn't you tell me earlier?" If you had told me earlier, would I still need to forcefully take off my clothes?
Bah, bah, bah, she was led askew. What do you mean by taking off clothes? It was obviously to check the wound.
"You didn't even ask." Qi Zhen stood up, "Are you relieved now? I'll go help my uncle with his work."
"Then you have to be good and try your best to help him." Bai Banxia grinded his teeth, but he still can't cure you?
She led Qi Zhen to the backyard. Bai Tian had already followed her daughter's instructions, sprinkled cornstarch, salt, and vinegar on the large intestine, and scrubbed it vigorously.
He also covered his face with a piece of cloth to barely block some of the stench.
"Don't you want to help? Let's rub it together." Bai Banxia waved his hand after saying, "I'm going to make soup, come on, I'll keep an eye on you."
"Ugh, after washing this thing, how can I still have the appetite to eat?" Bai Tian said pitifully.
Qi Zhen frowned and asked, "Uncle, what is this?"
"My daughter said it was delicious. Have we offended her recently?" Bai Tian was about to burst into tears, "Why do you feel like you've been punished?"
"I didn't." Qi Zhen thought carefully and thought it was true, then he knelt down to help rub it.
