Chapter 126: The sister of childhood friend in the novel (3)
Su Xiangran looked really miserable at this moment.
For breeding purposes, she was different from other girls and wore gray coarse cloth clothes.
There was a thick layer of dust on his face, but his hands were clean, as he had just washed them before dinner, but there was black between his nails.
The black color is not dirt. It was stained when I worked with technicians to make concentrated fertilizers during this period. It cannot be washed off for a while.
Su Xiangran used the planting knowledge he learned in the previous world and, after certain chemical treatments with wood ash and other materials, obtained a concentrated fertilizer that could help increase the germination rate of seeds.
Because it is still in the experimental stage, it has not yet been used and produced on a large scale.
Su Xiangran had been kept with wood ash these days, and was dyed black by these things.
Li Na felt very distressed when she saw her fair and tender daughter become like this.
"Mom, don't worry! It will be fine in a few days." Su Xiangran comforted her mother Li Na.
After dinner, a few people hurried home. Although they were on the outskirts of the farm, they had to pass through a large field, and it would be unsafe if they arrived too late.
Not long after walking out of the farm, Dad Su noticed a pair of green eyes looming in front of him. His heart skipped a beat. Could it be that he really encountered a wolf this time?
At this time, Wang Xiangbei, who had followed them out of the farm, stood up and whistled. Then they saw the owner of the eyes approaching them, his figure revealed in the night.
"Xiaobai?" Su Xiangran called out first.
"Well, it came to take me home." Wang Xiangbei explained the reason why Xiaobai appeared here.
"Child, you still want to go back to Zhangjia Village so late?" Li Na disagreed. "Why don't you stay at our house for one night? Ask your uncle Su to arrange a place for you to stay tomorrow."
"I have a place to live." Wang Xiangbei thought about it and decided it would be better to explain it clearly. "My house is near yours, next to the well."
"Next to the well?" Su Guoan thought for a moment, "Isn't that house owned by Uncle Zhang's son?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Guoan figured it out. The person who was exchanged with Wang Xiangbei should be Uncle Zhang's son. No wonder he was speaking for Wang Xiangbei just now!
"How long have you lived here?" Su Xiangran was very curious. She often went to fetch water, but she didn't seem to have seen him before.
No, she hasn't fetched water for several days, and the water tank is full every day.
"Wang Xiangbei, have you been the one fetching water for my house these days?" Su Xiangran didn't want him to do good things without being known, especially seeing that his father didn't seem to have a very good attitude towards him.
"They are all trivial matters." Wang Xiangbei still spoke little.
"This kid helped to fetch water without saying anything. He is really a good kid." Li Na had a high opinion of Wang Xiangbei for a moment.
"Haha!" Su Guoan became even more unhappy.
"What are you laughing at?" Li Na glared at her husband. "This is originally your job. Xiao Ran did it because she saw how hard you worked. Now someone feels sorry for your daughter and helps her with the job. Do you still have any objections?"
"I'm just afraid that he has some sort of idea." Su Guoan said awkwardly, then looked at Wang Xiangbei and Su Xiangran who were lagging behind.
"Don't bother, this is none of your business." Li Na followed her husband's gaze and glanced at the people behind him. "It's hard to say what will happen in the future, but for now, this child looks pretty good."
"What's so good about him?" Su Guoan got a little angry when he thought about his cabbage being stolen.
Li Na didn't even look at him, she just said: "He knows how to care for people!"
Su Guoan was silent.
"How many days have you moved in?" Su Xiangran didn't know about her parents' conversation, but she was quite curious about Wang Xiangbei. "Uncle Zhang's house only has one room, is it enough for you? Does Xiaobai sleep with you?"
"No, it sleeps under the porch and won't come into the house unless it rains." Wang Xiangbei shook his head. "It looks at the moon every day and doesn't like to sleep in the house."
"But when it was at my house, it slept in the kitchen!" Su Xiangran was puzzled.
"In unfamiliar places, it will choose a safer place." Wang Xiangbei explained, "Before I moved here, I had already built a new room, and also built another half room as a kitchen."
"Then the place you live in now must be very big!" Su Xiangran was a little envious.
She always has a lot of things, and only those that are difficult to explain are put into the space, and everything else is placed outside.
"Fortunately, I dug a cellar and put the food and bacon in it." Wang Xiangbei scratched his head and introduced his house, "So the house is basically empty."
When Su Xiangran was about to say something, she realized that she had arrived at the Su family's door.
"I'm going in. I'll come to your house when I have time." Su Xiangran waved goodbye to him.
Wang Xiangbei nodded and watched Su Xiangran enter the house. He didn't come back to his senses until Xiaobai bit his trouser leg.
