193 Silly Tianbao
Of course, jujube kiwis that had yet to ripen tasted bad.
Looking at him in amusement, Bai Wutong reached out and unfolded his furrowed brow. “Don’t eat anything carelessly. Some things are poisonous. If Tianbao gets sick after eating them, I will be worried, understand?”
Chu Tianbao nodded. “Got it. I won’t eat carelessly anymore.”
Seeing his silly expression, the corners of her mouth curled up. She couldn’t help but stand on her tiptoes and kiss him gently on the forehead.
!!
Chu Tianbao was suddenly stunned.
The smile in her eyes deepened. “This is a reward.”
Chu Tianbao’s eyes lit up. He shamelessly moved his handsome face to her soft lips and said sweetly, “Tianbao wants another reward.”
Her ears turned red, and her gaze landed on his cheek. She pushed him away. “It’s almost dark. We should go home.”
Chu Tianbao shamelessly said, “Just one.”
She had already kissed him once, but he was still pushing his luck.
The corners of her mouth curled up, and she decided to teach him a small lesson.
His wife’s soft lips gradually pressed against his. Chu Tianbao closed his eyes in bliss and enjoyed this beautiful moment.
The next second, her white teeth bit his face fiercely.
She was not gentle either, and two rows of red teeth marks appeared on Chu Tianbao’s face.
He covered his face, his eyes widened.
Bai Wutong smiled brightly. “Do you want more?”
Unexpectedly, Chu Tianbao nodded crazily, his face filled with excitement. “Yes, yes, yes.”
The moment she bit him, an electric current surged throughout his body. Chu Tianbao did not feel any pain at all. Instead, he felt exceptionally comfortable.
His expression, like he was dying for her to repeat, made her speechless and shy. She glared at him. “In your dreams. Hurry up and pick the fruit. It’s time to go home.”
Chu Tianbao immediately revealed a regretful expression. She glanced at him and her face burned even more. She muttered, “Silly Tianbao.”
The bamboo basket could no longer hold more jujube kiwi. Fortunately, Bai Wutong had prepared a small sack.
When they returned with a full load, they heard Qu Xin’er’s cries from the village.
Bai Wutong found it strange. Gu Zhongxun had already gone to treat Qu Xin’er, so why was she still crying like this? It was as if she would die in the next second.
As soon as they entered the village, the aunties under the big banyan tree greeted them warmly and even asked if they had eaten.
Bai Wutong smiled and declined. “Thank you, aunties. We just picked some mushrooms. They taste better when they’re fresh.”
The aunties said to them with concern, “Some mushrooms are poisonous. Madam Bai, you can’t pick them randomly. Do you want us to take a look for you?”
Bai Wutong shook her head. “It’s okay. I can distinguish them.”
Then, the aunties showered her with flattery again. As expected of Madam Bai, how could she not recognize the mushrooms? It was as if everything she did was earth-shattering.
She knew that they wanted to thank her for giving them a chance to earn money. Her gaze was gentle. After she smiled and bade farewell, she could still hear their praises behind her.
The closer they got to Cui family’s house, the louder Qu Xin’er’s cries became.
Gu Zhongxun was sent out by Cui Shize and happened to meet them.
Bai Wutong asked, “What’s going on? Why is she crying so hard?”
Gu Zhongxun said, “There’s nothing wrong with the wound, but we are missing the bright yellow herb that can remove scars. Therefore, we can’t remove the scars for the time being. If we wait for the wound to scab before using it, the effect will be worse. But even if we enter the mountain now, it’s not convenient to find herbs.”
The young lady naturally could not stand the scar on her body, so she cried so heartbreakingly.
Coincidentally, there was a bright yellow herb in Bai Wutong’s bamboo basket.
Bright yellow herb could be used as cream to nourish the skin. When the two of them entered the mountain just now, they saw it and dug it up.
She took out the bright yellow herb from under the mushrooms and handed it to Gu Zhongxun. “This is it, right?”
Gu Zhongxun’s eyes lit up. “Yes, that’s it.”
Cui Shize saw this and said in surprise, “That’s great.”
Now that there were medicinal herbs to remove Qu Xin’er’s scars, everyone would definitely be very happy.
“Then take it and use it. We’ll go back first.” Bai Wutong said.
Cui Shize said excitedly, “Thank you, Madam Bai!”
Bright yellow herb was not considered precious. She waved her hand. “You’re welcome.”
After she left, Gu Zhongxun hurriedly rushed back to the pharmacy to prepare a few other herbs.
When Gu Zhongxun returned to the Cui family with the concocted medicine, Qu Xin’er’s voice was hoarse from crying.
Seeing him return, Qu Yuanxian walked over. “Doctor Gu, is the medicine prepared?”
Gu Zhongxun smiled and nodded. “Coincidentally, Madam Bai has a bright yellow herb, so I can prepare the medicine. Hurry up and use it on Miss Qu.”
When Qu Yuanxian heard that it was the medicinal herb given by Bai Wutong, he said gratefully, “Thank you, Doctor Gu. Thank you, Madam Bai! I’ve troubled you today.”
At the side, Qu Lianghua’s expression darkened. How could there be such a coincidence? Coincidentally, there was a lack of bright yellow herb, and it just so happened that she had one.
Seeing everyone’s respectful expressions towards Bai Wutong, Qu Lianghua suspected that Gu Zhongxun and Bai Wutong were deliberately playing tricks on them and wanted to earn another favor from the Qu family.
However, he had no evidence and could only suppress this suspicion.
Gu Zhongxun’s scar removing medicine was a little stimulating to the body, so Qu Xin’er started crying again.
Qu Lianghua had taken care of her for the entire day and was very tired. When he went downstairs, he happened to meet Cui Lingyi, who was looking for Cui Muzhi.
Under the candlelight, Cui Lingyi looked like a princess who had entered an ancient castle.
...
The fatigue in his eyes immediately swept away. He approached Cui Lingyi politely. “Miss Cui, may I ask if you can help me next?”
Cui Lingyi could tell what he was thinking. Any help was just an excuse to pick up girls.
She politely refused with a smile. “I have something on for the time being.”
These words were too blunt for Qu Lianghua to accept.
Just as Cui Lingyi was about to turn around, he pleaded, “Xin’er likes Miss Cui very much. She’s feeling very uncomfortable now. Can I trouble you to take a look at her?”
He wanted to fight for himself.
Cui Lingyi’s eyes flashed, and she was a little moved. When she met Qu Lianghua’s expectant gaze, she only said a cold word, “Sorry.”
In an instant, Qu Lianghua’s heart sank.
Cui Lingyi and Xin’er were clearly getting along so well, and Xin’er still liked her so much. In an instant, Qu Lianghua immediately thought that Bai Wutong was the one causing the rift.
If it weren’t for Bai Wutong, he would have been Cui Lingyi’s best choice. Why wouldn’t she like him?
The immense anger and sadness made him blurt out without caring about his rationality, “Are you unwilling because Xin’er spoke rudely to Madam Bai?” This made her unwilling to look at Qu Xin’er or accept him.
