Chapter 231 Going out
Chapter 231 Going out
Xue Li closed his eyes and opened them again. Finally, he heard some movement outside. It turned out to be the old educated youth getting up.
Jiang Yu, Jiang Yu, get up quickly! Xue Li called out in his heart.
I don’t know if it was because her call was really effective, penetrating the wall between the two rooms and reaching Jiang Yu’s ears, and she really woke up.
Jiang Yu put on his clothes, put on cloth shoes and went out to check the condition of the wheelchair.
The door creaked open, and Xue Li immediately stared at the door with eyes wide open, his eyes staring far away, full of anticipation.
Jiang Yu touched the surface of the wheelchair with her fingers and found that it was still the same as yesterday. According to the current temperature, it would take at least a week for the tung oil to dry completely. Then she turned back to her room and prepared to wash up.
Xue Li was puzzled when he saw that no one knocked on the door, and then he hurriedly called out, "Jiang Yu?"
Jiang Yu had sharp ears and did not miss the sound of her calling her name. He quickly went back to the house to get the key and opened Xue Li's door.
Because of her inconvenient legs and feet, she asked Jiang Yu to lock the door from the outside before going to bed at night. Although it was a little restrictive, her safety was guaranteed.
After Tiejiangjun opened the door, Jiangyu pushed it open and walked in. "Are you awake? Do you want to go to the bathroom?"
"Yu'er, is the wheelchair dry?" Xue Li spoke almost at the same time as her.
Jiang Yu shook his head. "Not so fast. The temperature has dropped now. The tung oil dries more slowly. Even if the wind is strong, it will take about a week."
"Ah?" Xue Li suddenly felt disappointed, "It takes so long?"
"Do you want to go out and take a look?" Jiang Yu sat on the edge of the kang, looked at her aggrieved look, and laughed.
"Think about it, I haven't been out for any activities since I was injured. I'm almost suffocated." Xue Li waved his right hand twice to vent his anger.
Jiang Yu raised his eyebrows, "I can carry you to Yaoer Mountain to see the scenery, but how are you going to thank me?"
"I have chocolates, cookies, and canned yellow peaches!!" Xue Li became energetic again. She quickly gestured to her bedside table, which was filled with snacks, all of which had been repackaged so as not to arouse suspicion.
"Okay, then take your snacks with you, and I'll carry you to the mountain to play in the afternoon. But you have to promise that you just sit and enjoy the scenery, and don't move around!" Jiang Yu was still worried that she couldn't sit still. If she fell, she would have to go to the hospital again, and she would be the one who would suffer.
Xue Li immediately raised three fingers and promised, "I will be good and won't move!"
"I'll believe you for now. Do you want to get up and go to the bathroom?" Jiang Yu rubbed her eyes. She hadn't washed up yet and her sleepiness was not completely gone.
Xue Li stretched out his hand, "Yes."
Since I promised to take Xue Li to the mountain in the afternoon, I had to prepare everything I needed. Although we weren't going far, we could just play by the reservoir near Yi Chi's home.
First of all, water. Xue Li is responsible for preparing snacks, so let's bring a pot of boiled water. Otherwise, it would be too sweet to have sweets and drink red date tea.
Then there was the mosquito repellent bag Wu Aiqing made. She put on a small cushion and sat on the grass, for she was most afraid of mosquitoes coming around.
There are also miscellaneous items such as straw hats, books, towels, etc.
After Chen Jinghan found out, she took over the tedious preparation work.
In this way, Jiang Yu only had to be responsible for bringing people up, and he felt relieved.
Xue Li started looking forward to lunch the moment he started having breakfast. He kept daydreaming while reading and his attention was completely not on the book.
Jiang Yu was also doing exercises, and sighed when she heard her annoyance. It seemed that she was really frustrated.
Xue Li stuck out his tongue and pushed the egg cake towards Jiang Yu. "I'm reading. I'm reading. You answer your questions. Don't worry about me."
Jiang Yu took a piece of egg cake and stuffed it into his mouth, then lowered his head and continued to read the questions.
Chen Jinghan placed the content that she thought was interesting in front of Xue Li, clicked on it and motioned her to look at it.
Wu Aiqing was preparing medicinal herbs. The patio was filled with a strong herbal smell. It wasn't pleasant, but they were used to it and didn't think it was a big deal.
After a long morning, they had a simple lunch. Jiang Yu forced Xue Li to take a nap for an hour. Then the four of them packed their things and walked out.
The temperature at this time is enough to wear two layers of clothes, and it will be lower at night, but it is still very comfortable to go out and bask in the sun now.
After reaching the edge of the reservoir, Chen Jinghan took out the cushion and put it on the ground first. Then Jiang Yu put Xue Li down from his back and helped her sit down.
Xue Li took a deep breath and said with emotion, "This is the taste of freedom!"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Wu Aiqing glared at her.
Xue Li immediately covered his mouth and acted like a good boy.
Jiang Yu took the mosquito repellent packet from the basket, cleared a clean area nearby, and lit it.
The smoke quickly spread, and the small insects nearby were all scurrying around and disappeared.
Xue Li was sitting right in the middle of the smoke, and was choked to tears. She started to act funny again, crying to Jiang Yu, "Yu'er, look, I'm so excited that tears are falling!"
"Okay, the smoke will soon clear. If you're bored, recite some poetry to us." Jiang Yu didn't expect the wind direction to change suddenly, but seeing her mischievous look, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Oh. What do you want to hear? This is the professional announcer Xue Li, dedicated to serving you." Xue Li immediately began to perform by pinching his throat.
"Whatever, just recite whatever you want." Jiang Yu didn't understand any poetry, she just said it casually.
Xue Li glared, "Whatever? What kind of poem is that? I haven't heard of it. No, change to one I know!" She was in a state of being too excited. Even if no one else interrupted her, she could still talk for a long time.
"Then I don't know what other poems you know." Jiang Yu answered as if it were a tongue twister, fanning the smoke with his hands to make it dissipate faster.
Xue Li sighed in a fake manner, "Then let me perform a dish reading for you!" Then she cleared her throat, picked up the shelf and began, "Today's menu includes steamed lamb, steamed bear paws, steamed deer tails, roast duck, roast chicken, roast goose, braised pork, braised duck, sauce chicken, bacon, pine flowers, tripe..."
"Ancestor, stop nagging me. I know you crave meat, but not in this way!" Wu Aiqing was looking forward to Xue Li's performance at first, but she ended up doing this. It was really tiring since lunch was supposed to be simple.
Xue Li laughed, "Oh, I was just reciting it for fun!"
"Aren't you craving for meat?" Wu Aiqing didn't believe it.
"I'm really not craving for it. With the food we have, why would I crave meat?" Xue Li repeatedly said that he was really not craving for it, but that was just what the crosstalk actors were saying when they were calling out the dishes.
