After rebirth, I went from a peasant girl to the richest man

The two stood by the stove, and tacitly used the crackling sound of the stove fire to whisper in each other's ears: "Remember to put less water when decocting the medicine, so that it will be more effective!"

Xie Shuer nodded in understanding.

Seeing Bai's mother looking over, she quickly said louder, "Sister Shu'er, there's still some time before dinner. I'll go see how Madam Su is doing!"

Seeing the conversation between the two, Bai's mother did not suspect anything, but replied: "Yes, Madam Su has not come out since she returned to her room."

"Little girl, luckily the water in the pots hadn't boiled yet when the blast happened. Although she didn't get burned, I was afraid she would get cut by the broken tiles."

"Go and have a look. If you need medicine for external injuries, I have some."

Bai Qingyun asked: "Mom, when were you injured?"

Seeing her daughter's concerned face, Bai's mother's resentment dissipated a little, and she replied to Bai Qingyun gently.

"It wasn't me. It was because we were building a new house and reclaiming land at that time, and the people we hired sometimes got injured, so I asked your father to go to the clinic and buy some as a backup."

“Those are what’s left over from that time.”

Reclaiming wasteland and building brick and tile houses is indeed a job that is prone to injuries.

Bai Qingyun looked at Bai's mother carefully, and was relieved to see that her face was rosy and there was no sign of injury at all.

"Okay, I understand. I'll go back to the yard and take a look."

However, Bai Qingyun had a general understanding of the situation and had some idea of ​​it in his mind.

With Su Niangzi's ability, she was able to push Bai's mother out of the kitchen before the explosion, and she had predicted it.

With his own lightness skills and internal strength, it was not difficult to dodge a few broken tiles.

Moreover, those small firecrackers were made by the store owner using some waste materials. Although the ratio of firecrackers inside was large, the total amount must be very small.

That is, several small stoves exploded one after another, and the water splashing out from them was difficult to block all of it even if one used internal force to block it once.

Water droplets are not like broken tiles that can be blocked by just pinching the hem of your skirt.

Xie Shuer said that when she saw her, her body was soaked, probably because she used her dress to block it.

Therefore, the probability of Su Niangzi getting injured is almost zero.

Bai Qingyun came to take a look, more to express his concern.

In the small courtyard.

As soon as Bai Qingyun entered the yard, he saw Xiao Yan standing at the door of Su Niangzi's room.

Seeing Bai Qingyun coming over, Xiao Yan hurriedly came forward and said timidly, "Yun... Sister Yun."

Bai Qingyun straightened Xiao Yan's hair which was a little messy due to martial arts practice: "Xiao Yan, where is your master?"

Bai Qingyun's courtyard was the larger one in the Bai family. In order to make it possible for the people inside to hear clearly, she deliberately raised her voice.

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Qingyun's ears moved and he heard the sound of water inside.

Are you still washing up?

Bai Qingyun raised his eyebrows in amusement and was about to go to Su Niangzi's room when he felt his sleeve being pulled by a very small force.

Looking at Xiao Yan who was hesitant to speak, Bai Qingyun could only sit on the stone table at the side. He used his wide sleeves to take out a piece of thousand-layer cake and handed it to Xiao Yan.

"Xiao Yan, do you have something to say to me?"

With Xiao Yan’s current skill level, she naturally didn’t know that she had been eavesdropping in the tree early in the morning.

So Bai Qingyun pretended not to know and asked.

Xiao Yan looked at the thousand-layer cake in his hand with some hesitation. Bai Qingyun was not in a hurry and waited patiently.

It takes time for Xiao Yan to face his inner self.

What's more, Bai Qingyun could hear the sound of water inside stop, and he could also hear the sound of wet footsteps on the floor.

I guess the people inside knew I was here, so it would be difficult for them to stay inside and escape reality.

She was so leisurely that she even picked up the water that Bai Qingyun had boiled earlier on the stone table and calmly made tea.

The little girl was standing beside him, with her right index finger and thumb always pinching a corner of Bai Qingyun's dress.

Seeing this, Bai Qingyun quickly handed over a cup of tea and said softly, "Don't worry, I have nothing to do today, you can talk slowly."

Not sure if it was Bai Qingyun's leisurely and contented behavior that affected her, but Xiao Yan gradually relaxed.

From being timid at first to slowly relaxing, he sat down next to Bai Qingyun.

However, a corner of Bai Qingyun's dress was still not put down, and the cup of steaming tea on the stone table was put aside because of Xiao Yan's "busyness".

The little girl lowered her head, seeming to blame herself. Bai Qingyun saw that she was constantly trying to break through herself, so he didn't urge her.

Just as a sister, she asked with concern as usual: "Mrs. Su taught you martial arts today. How is your learning going?"

"If you are too tired, I will go and tell her. Practicing martial arts is a long-term process, there is no need to rush."

Xiao Yan was opened up by Bai Qingyun and finally raised his head, looked at Bai Qingyun with bright eyes and asked.

“Sister Yun, if you are tired from practicing martial arts, can you really let yourself relax a little?”

Bai Qingyun looked at Xiao Yan and still remembered that when he held her hand that day, it was still a little chubby, but there was a slight tremor from time to time.

I don’t know when it started, but the hand that used to be chubby has turned into the slender one it is now.

Bai Qingyun nodded solemnly: "Of course, everyone gets tired sometimes."

Bai Qingyun pondered in her heart. She didn't know how to start. In this world, there are people who only seek temporary pleasure and end up living a mediocre life...

She didn't know how to start. In this world, some people worked hard all their lives, but in the end they were still unknown...

Finally, I can only say this after considering Xiaoyan's actual situation.

She thought that what Xiao Yan needed at this moment was not preaching of great principles that he had not experienced, but a word of affirmation from someone close to him.

Those seemingly unimportant affirmations and encouragements will eventually become her belonging.

Xiao Yan got a positive answer, and the corners of his usually indifferent mouth curved into a smile that Bai Qingyun had never seen before.

The little girl should smile more often to be more lively.

But a smile is not a forced one.

It is when you are in a pleasant environment and can’t help laughing;

It is you who can remain calm even when you are in a difficult situation, and who can still smile even when you are a little panicked and make mistakes...

Laughter should always come from the heart, not just show it on the outside.

Xiao Yan bared his teeth, put away his previous disguise, and then shared his daily life as if he was sharing it with his sister.

"Sister Yun, Master asked me this morning why I practiced martial arts."

Bai Qingyun took the little girl in his arms, cut off a small piece of the thousand-layer cake, handed it to Xiao Yan's mouth, and answered as usual: "Oh? Then how did you answer?"

Xiao Yan put the thousand-layer cake into her mouth. The sweet fragrance burst across her lips and teeth, making her squint her eyes in happiness.

"I said...because Sister Yun asked me to learn it!"
