Chapter 251 Goodwill
Xu Manli was in a bad mood and got up and walked outside without eating.
Then one of the men saw it and raised his voice and asked her, "Mary, where are you going without dinner? Eat your meal first, how delicious it is."
Hsu Man-li rolled her eyes, glared at Charlee Ford secretly, gnashed her teeth and said, "You eat, I'll lose weight."
I can't eat you! She scolded quietly in her heart, and then walked outside.
Charlee Ford didn't notice her malicious eyes, put down her food and returned to the homestay with Chang Sheng.
On the way back, Chang Sheng smiled jokingly and asked her meaningfully: "Didn't you see the eyes of the female doctor just now?"
"What?" Charlee Ford is thinking about boiling medicine in his heart, and some of them are absent-minded.
Often born is more teasing with laughter. "That look, I can't wait to eat you. Sure enough, women are wolves, tigers and leopards. The novels I read really don't deceive me."
When Charlee Ford heard this, he rolled his eyes and said, "What you are looking at is a mess. Don't talk nonsense. Boil medicine with me at night and send it to Grandpa and Aunt Zhou."
"I want to come with you, too?" Chang Sheng widened his eyes and muttered discontentedly in an instant.
Charlee Ford followed his teasing smile and said, "What do you think, if you come here without help or work, are you here for vacation?"
"Ah, I am so pitiful, for my pitiful sake, you must make it up to me."
"Oh? What compensation do you want?"
"Why don't you call me Xianggong?"
"Get out, don't you?"
The two men were talking, laughing and beating on their way back. No one noticed that a black car was parked slowly at the entrance of the village. After their bodies disappeared, the window rolled up slowly.
Back to the homestay, the proprietress, that is, the woman last time, was eating at the door with her youngest son.
There was a low table and two small stools at the door. Charlee Ford glanced at it. There was only a shredded potato and a plate of green vegetables on the table.
The woman's youngest son looks thin, dark and malnourished. At the moment, he is constantly pulling porridge in the bowl, but his eyes are carefully glancing into the house.
"You are back, the food has been prepared for you, and old Mr. Cole is waiting for you inside." Wife of shop-owner greeted cheerfully.
When Charlee Ford entered the door, there were four dishes on a wooden table, braised pork, fried meat, green vegetables and shredded potatoes, and a tomato and egg soup, all of which Charlee Ford spent money on.
She has always disliked mistreating herself, not to mention a picky constant and her master.
"Eat." It happened that Mr Cole came out at this moment and said when he saw Charlee Ford coming back.
Charlee Ford glanced at the dishes on the table and said, "We can't finish it either. Don't waste it."
Said, and she picked up a big bowl, clipped some braised pork and stir-fried meat from it, filled a big bowl full, and went out and put it on the small low table beside the proprietress.
"This..." The woman was at a loss.
Charlee Ford smiled and said: "The three of us can't finish eating at all, so don't waste it. Besides, the little guy is still growing."
When she finished speaking, she entered the house. When she saw it, she shook her head and said, "I didn't see that you were quite kind."
"We will naturally treat others as they treat us." She said faintly.
The deposit of 1000 yuan for room and board is a lot for these villagers, but those who have some thoughts will not make such a big table of meat dishes for them so sincerely.
They are reluctant to eat white rice, but they are not greedy for Charlee Ford's money. This simple quality deserves her respect.
"Isn't it just a few pieces of meat? My uncle takes you to eat spicy food every day, and I haven't seen you so grateful to me." Often said in a sour tone.
Charlee Ford gave him a white look and said, "It's not surprising to you that there are delicacies in the mountains and seas. There are tens of thousands of meals, but people don't dare to buy pork for fifteen dollars a catty. Which one do you think is more sincere?"
Often, when I heard the words, I couldn't say them with ridicule, but I was obsessed with chopsticks and looked thoughtful.
After dinner, Mr Cole got up and said, "I'm a little tired. I'll go back to my room to sleep first. The medicinal materials are all in the kitchen. You can cook it yourself later."
The woman's youngest son is very sensible. After seeing them eat, he cleans the table and takes the dishes to the kitchen to wash.
Charlee Ford and Chang Sheng also plunged into the kitchen.
Chang Sheng classified the medicinal materials according to Charlee Ford's orders, some of which needed to be ground into powder, while others needed to be divided into batches according to quantity. When he did this for the first time, he felt very novel and energetic.
"Little Jiu-Er, what is the name of this medicinal material?"
"Little Jiu-Er, what about this? What is it with?"
"Lying trough this good stink, what is it for? Poisoning people?"
There is only a very noisy sound left in the whole kitchen.
Wife of shop-owner's youngest son silently washed dishes, did not leave after washing, and looked at them curiously with a pair of big black and white eyes.
The process of boiling medicine is very long and boring. Charlee Ford holds his face and has nothing to do, while dealing with Chang Sheng, he beckons to the child.
The child hesitated for a moment, thinking that this is a kind sister, so he walked timidly.
"What's your name? How old are you?" Charlee Ford asked him.
It was the first time for the little boy to talk to such a beautiful sister in the city. His face suddenly turned red and stammered, "My name is Yuanbao, and I am eight years old this year."
Charlee Ford couldn't help laughing when he looked at his cramped appearance.
Yuanbao saw that she looked better when she smiled, and her face turned red again.
"Yuanbao, where is your father? Why did I only see you and your mother today?" Charlee Ford asked without words.
When Yuanbao heard this, his face suddenly became very sad. He whispered, "My father is dead. There are cannibalistic beasts on the mountain, which killed my father."
Charlee Ford smell speech, a smile on his face.
She remembered that when she went to the back mountain to collect medicine, she also met a big wild boar. She almost suffered a loss in this skill. As an ordinary person...
She sighed and touched Yuanbao's head, apologizing: "I'm sorry, my sister didn't mean to ask."
"It doesn't matter, sister, my mother is also very good to me, that is, my mother is too hard." Yuanbao's eyes faded a few minutes.
At this time, the voice of the proprietress came outside: "Yuanbao, don't you sleep yet? You have to go to school tomorrow."
"Here comes mom." He answered and turned to Charlee Ford. "Sister, I went to bed. See you tomorrow."
When he left, Charlee Ford sighed.
Chang Sheng also has some feelings: "I didn't expect there to be such poor people in the world."
