Chapter 609 Good Friends (23)
PS: Extra chapter for the new leader cool20.
Xiaobai was circling around the gift, curious about what was inside, Zhang Tan caught her and said, "Don't worry about it, go take a shower."
He was answered with a scream: "Ah~~~"
Zhang Tan quickly let her go, Xiaobai ran away, and soon ran back, holding a fire stick in her hand, staring at him, as if she was ready to fight him if they disagreed.
"Okay, okay, if you don't want to take a shower, then don't take a shower first, you change your clothes and shoes first, and then we'll go find grandma."
"Wow, I want it~"
This idiot even made a scissors hand gesture, and that proud look, well, the same as him.
Zhang Tan found Xiaobai's change of clothes from the suitcase, Xiaobai took it, went into the room, and didn't forget to carry the fire stick in, looking back at him, the warning was obvious.
"Don't worry, I can't break in. I'll go wash the vegetables first and prepare dinner for the evening."
Zhang Tan took out the things in the suitcase one by one.
Soon Xiaobai came out, still holding her firewood stick in her hand.
Zhang Tan asked: "Where are the clothes you changed? Take them out and wash them."
Xiaobai thought about it, ran back, picked up the small clothes and shoes she changed from under the bed, and threw them into the basket reluctantly.
"I'll go wash the clothes. The sun hasn't set yet. If grandma hasn't come home after washing the clothes, then we'll go find her, okay?"
"Okay."
Xiaobai followed: "Boss Zhang~~"
"Hmm?"
"Xiaobai will wash Xiaobai's clothes."
"You can wash clothes?"
"This is my strong point." Her voice was eight degrees higher. It seems that this is really her strong point, not the kind of bragging in a fight.
"Then you come, I'll cut the vegetables. Prepare the dishes first, and cook faster later."
"Let's work hard together to surprise grandma."
"Okay, surprise grandma."
Although this home is simple, it is cleaned very cleanly. Teacher Jiang is a very careful person in life.
Although Zhang Tan was cutting and washing vegetables, his eyes were always on Xiaobai. He saw the little guy carrying a basket of clothes and preparing to go out.
"Hey, hey, hey, where are you going?"
"Washing clothes."
"Where are you going to wash clothes?"
"The river."
"Come back, you are not allowed to go to the river. What if you fall into the river?"
"I am the fish in the river. I am awesome."
Look at her confident little look.
"That won't work either. Just wash clothes in the yard. There's a water pump there."
"Hmph~Boss Zhang, what are you afraid of?"
"I'm afraid you'll get lost."
Xiao Bai muttered to herself and came to the yard with a basket. Zhang Tan was worried that she wouldn't be able to pump water, so he followed her out to help. However, he saw that the child was very skilled. After a few bangs, he pumped a basin of water.
"Hahaha, it's fun."
This guy was pumping water while hanging his feet, like playing on a seesaw.
Zhang Tan was relieved and went into the house after a warning.
After more than ten minutes, he became worried again and came out to see what was going on. He saw Xiao Bai sitting obediently on a small stool, bending over and rubbing her clothes. Because she was facing away from the door, Xiao Bai didn't notice Zhang Tan. She was panting and working very hard, washing clothes properly.
Zhang Tan went back to the kitchen and sped up because it was getting dark and he didn't know where Teacher Jiang had gone. He hadn't come back yet.
When he came to Baijia Village, he passed through the town and bought a lot of vegetables and meat. He planned to have a Bang Bang Chicken tonight, which is Xiaobai's favorite. He heard that Teacher Jiang also likes it, and Teacher Jiang's taste is great.
Before meeting Xiaobai, Zhang Tan had never even heard of Bang Bang Chicken, let alone how to make it, until he met Xiaobai and ate it at her house a few times. He was happy and sad because Xiaobai liked it, so he learned how to make it and experimented on himself, and the taste was pretty good.
Bang Bang Chicken is a Sichuan dish, which is relatively spicy, so Zhang Tan bought a sea bass and prepared to make sea bass soup.
In addition, there is a brown sugar taro ball, which is Xiaobai's favorite. Children have a special liking for the round little balls.
Another big dish is osmanthus wine-brewed duck.
Zhang Tan had just prepared these dishes and was about to start a big fight, when suddenly Xiaobai's cry came from outside the house. He went out and saw that Dunzi was here.
Dunzi was stunned and stood there, staring blankly at Xiaobai who was washing clothes in the yard. He didn't notice that the handbag in his hand fell to the ground, and his attention was all on Xiaobai.
He rubbed his eyes, worried that Xiaobai was fake and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
But no.
Xiaobai was still the same Xiaobai, still in the yard, no longer washing clothes. Xiaobai stood up and looked at him and laughed.
Dunzi rubbed his eyes again and confirmed Xiaobai for the second time. Not long ago, other children were playing in the yard, and he mistook it for Xiaobai, and missed it several times, so he was particularly cautious this time.
Xiaobai was still there, standing in the yard and looking at him and laughing.
Xiaobai was that Xiaobai, not another child. He was not wrong this time, it was indeed Xiaobai.
Dunzi took two steps forward, stepped on the handbag that fell to the ground, and stopped, but not to pick up the things on the ground, but... rubbed his eyes again, and confirmed again whether the idiot in front of him was Xiaobai.
"Dunzi~~Don't be such a blockhead."
This time Xiaobai finally spoke. Looking at his grin, other children couldn't fake that secretive look, so the child in front of him must be Xiaobai!
He still didn't come forward and rubbed his eyes again. This time he was not worried that he would be dazzled and fantasize about Xiaobai, but his eyes were wet with tears rolling in his eyes.
Dunzi, a man of few words, cried.
It seemed that he couldn't walk these few steps, so Xiaobai could only take the initiative to step forward.
Xiaobai patted Dunzi's head and comforted him: "Oh, oh, don't cry, are you crying? Why are you crying? Is some idiot bullying you? Who are you? Hey, I’ll give him two ears!”
Dunzi shook his head.
Xiaobai seemed to understand. He put his hands on his hips and said loudly to Dunzi's house in the distance: "Is your mom scolding you again? Don't be afraid, I will help you say you mom, you are a kid who always scolds you~ Which mom? It’s like this, huh! I want to ask Boss Zhang to scold her! Why are you always like this? Dunzi, you are not stupid. I think you are very smart. You are rich. Ai Pei Nao, I am the most generous lover in the world, and you are the second..."
Dunzi cried and wanted to laugh, but he only showed a naive smile. He had a thousand words to say, but he was stupid and didn't know how to say them. He didn't know what to say. Even why you came back was forgotten in his mind.
It must have been that the round moon was stuck in his throat tonight and wouldn't let him out a single word, so he was full of words and couldn't say even a single word.
"For you to eat."
In the end, Dunzi only said these three words. He picked up the handbag on the ground, took out a mooncake, and stuffed it into Xiaobai's hand. Then he took out a big red apple and stuffed it into Xiaobai's hand. He also took out a bottle of milk, and then Stuff it into Xiaobai's hand.
He came to give these to Grandma Jiang.
Zhang Tan stood silently at the door, did not disturb them, and just watched silently.
