Chapter 150 Team Pu, Slow Down
Pu Huai withdrew his gaze and looked at An Jiu again.
"I'll figure out how to do this."
"..."
Anjiu was silent.
After a while, she said, "Captain Pu, if that's the case, then I have even less reason to cooperate with you."
Pu Huai frowned, "Why?"
An Jiu said calmly: "Since you can prepare the stove and firewood yourself, why do you have to cooperate with me and let me take advantage of you?"
Her words were very blunt, and her intention was obvious, as if she was almost pointing at his nose and scolding him.
Pu Huai pursed his lips and defended himself: "At the beginning, I didn't know that there was not enough firewood."
Anjiu nodded and admitted generously: "Yes, now you know."
The atmosphere seemed to have dropped to freezing point.
The two were obviously talking peacefully, but the invisible thread between them was very tight.
Grandma looked around and coughed lightly, trying to ease the atmosphere.
At this moment, An Jiu laughed casually, as if he didn't care at all, erasing the sharpness in his words, and said in a very natural tone:
"We've been using this small stove quite well these days, and I don't have any high requirements. As long as it can last through the rainy season, that's fine. Captain Pu, don't you think so?"
Pu Huai looked at her for two seconds, then suddenly laughed, "You are very different now than you were before."
Anjiu shrugged noncommittally: "People always change."
"Makes sense."
Pu Huai turned his gaze towards the window, his voice was low, and seemed to reveal a hint of doubt?
He said: "You are in a good location here. When you light a fire, the smoke will fly outside. I have tried it at home before. It was full of smoke and very choking. I felt very uncomfortable if I stayed there for a long time."
"..."
Anjiu didn't expect him to explain.
As for the question about the direction of the smoke, Anjiu tacitly agreed that it was a good thing for her family to have a good layout.
Pu Huai looked at her again.
Because of his height advantage, he seemed to be looking down on others. His eyebrows were lowered, and the small face, which was the size of a palm, was reflected in his deep pupils.
Her change is not only that she has become bolder.
His temperament has also become more cheerful, and his heart has become more delicate and sensitive, which is even more reflected in the care he gives to Grandma An.
Compared to her previous cautiousness, Grandma An seems to be more energetic.
Death is synonymous with this land, and he is accustomed to the passing of life.
But now.
Vitality - vigorous.
These two words, appearing simultaneously in this endless desert, make people feel dazed and their hearts beat faster.
She is like the small flame in the stove, which will gradually burn into a blazing fire...
Pu Huai slowed down his tone and advised again:
"This is just a deal that seems to be a win for you, but I actually have my own agenda. This is a mutually beneficial thing. Anjiu, think about it carefully."
Anjiu ponders:
Throw away all the messy thoughts and just look at it from the perspective of the two people.
This matter is beneficial to her and Pu Huai as well.
The stove is larger than a simple stove. Once a fire is lit, several things can be done at the same time at high temperature.
Even when grandma went to the side to clean the fish, she could feel the heat.
Thinking of this, she agreed readily.
"Captain Pu, I hope we have a pleasant transaction!"
In order to maximize his own interests, Anjiu stood up and added water to his glass.
She has a cute smile.
"My grandma is an expert at grilling fish. If Captain Pu wants to eat grilled fish every day, you have to buy more dry firewood. When the fish and wet clothes are grilled, I will pack them together and send them to your home, so you don't have to run back and forth."
What I mean is, don’t come if you don’t have to, we don’t accept dine-in orders.
Pu Huai paused for a moment and finally nodded.
Seeing that it was getting late, he stood up.
Prepare the wine and see the guests off.
But when I raised my eyes, I received a look from him.
Come out for a moment.
An Jiu was stunned for a moment, then pretended not to see it, "Captain Pu, take care."
"..."
When grandma saw him stop, she thought he had dropped something and turned around to look for it around the mat.
Pu Huai frowned and said in spoken language: Come out.
Anjiu lowered his eyebrows.
like a statue.
"You didn't leave anything behind, Captain Pu, did you forget it at home?" Grandma asked puzzled.
Pu Huai took a cold look at the top of his head in front of him, and took out a small glass bottle of light blue liquid from his pocket expressionlessly.
He handed it to grandma and said, "Let her drink this later. It will help relieve her discomfort."
Grandma was horrified, "What happened to Xiaojiu's body?!"
At this moment, the head that had been lowered pretending not to understand suddenly raised up, and the pair of big eyes were filled with disbelief and regret.
Pu Huai's mood improved, and with a faint smile on his lips, he turned and left.
Behind.
"Xiaojiu, where are you injured? Don't hide it from grandma! Tell the truth!"
"I'm really fine. Don't listen to his nonsense. He is taking the opportunity to retaliate."
"Nothing? Nothing! How could Captain Pu leave you a bottle of medicine? There's a doctor's mark on it, don't try to fool me! Drink it now, don't leave a drop!"
"Grandma, grandma, wait--uh, gulp."
The cold liquid slid down his throat into his stomach. Anjiu licked his lips, not waiting to savor the taste.
Her grandmother grabbed her clothes by the collar and pretended to check if she had any wounds on her body.
An Jiu was shocked and quickly blocked it, "It's not on me, it's in my hand!"
While her grandmother was distracted, she took back her clothes, patted the collar and straightened it, then under her grandmother's urging gaze, she raised all ten fingers - it was not appropriate to just raise two middle fingers.
But grandma was shocked, "All of them have wounds?"
"No," she said hastily, "only the middle finger, where the nail was, it's healed now."
Grandma clenched her fingers, frowned, and looked hard.
Anjiu also leaned over to take a look. The small wound had long been covered by the whitened and wrinkled skin.
"How not?"
The light at home was dim, and my grandmother’s eyesight wasn’t very good, so she couldn’t find it no matter how hard she looked.
"You're not lying to me, are you?"
After hearing what grandma said, An Jiu had the urge to pull Pu Huai back to explain.
In desperation, she could only tell the whole story (with some hidden parts of course), and only then did her grandmother finally believe it.
She looked scared and leaned closer to Anjiu, "Are you really okay?"
Anjiu nodded.
"That's good, that's good." Grandma said it twice and patted her chest to calm her pounding heart.
Seeing her like this, An Jiu sighed deeply, walked over to tidy up the stall on the stove, and started a random topic to divert her attention.
As she was talking, grandma suddenly asked, "After taking the medicine, do you have any reaction now?"
Anjiu touched his stomach and felt it carefully, "I don't feel anything."
"Oh." Grandma was relieved. "Luckily, Captain Pu knows a lot and got you some medicine. Otherwise, if you were really in pain, I wouldn't know what to do!"
After hearing this, Anjiu silently swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth - "Aren't you worried that he brought poison? Just pour it into my mouth."
Grandma trusts Pu Huai very much.
"Captain Pu is such a good man," Grandma said with emotion, "He took good care of us and even bought you medicine."
Then, she lowered her voice and muttered, "It's just that her mouth is a little hard."
