System Crisis

Chapter 81 If you get caught, you will be eaten!

"Sister Lu! Eat———"

Shen Lu turned over, hugged the quilt and stared at her big eyes. The curtains on the bed were warm light yellow, which made people feel lazy in winter.

Little Yuanxiao was like a ball of hair, standing at Shen Lu's door and patting the door, with a bulging face, "It's getting more and more outrageous! Mr. Kui even left food for her."

"Huh? Little Yuanxiao is not good, she speaks ill of my sister behind her back! If caught, she will be eaten."

Shen Lu only wore her middle coat, opened the door and looked down at the Mao Tuanzi at the door, squinting her eyes, pretending to threaten Xiao Yuanxiao.

"Ah—my sister is bad!"

Little Yuanxiao smiled, jumped and hid behind the flower bed, showed her little head, and stuck out her tongue at Shen Lu, "Master has something to do today, and the meal is on the stove. Hurry up and eat, I won't give you little Yuanxiao!"

After a night of snowfall, the weather was not so cold. Putting on ordinary clothes, I strolled in the small garden of the business mansion, listening to the creaking sound of my feet. A hole was dug.

"What is this for?"

"Aniang said, I can hide the winter snow to make wine, especially plum wine. I can also drink it. It happens to snow, so I will bury more."

Little Yuanxiao licked her lips as she spoke, like a little drunkard.

Shen Lu looked funny: "You still drink?"

"...Not yet, but when the plums are ripe in the summer, I can drink them!"

Little Yuanxiao puffed out her small chest and looked forward to it.

"Wine is spicy, it's not good!" Shen Lu squatted by the pit, took the shovel and helped dig a few times, the ground was frozen and the soil was hard.

"But... plums are sweet, why is plum wine spicy?"

Shen Lu thought for a while, but she didn't know why: "Eh... I haven't drunk plum wine, maybe it's sweet?"

The wine she drank was the kind that burns knives.She didn't dare to kill someone for the first time, so Xuanji handed her a pot of Hu Malie, which tasted heart-piercing, but she didn't like it at all.

Xiao Yuanxiao replied with a smile: "Then when the plums are ripe, I'll give you some, just a little."

A ball of snow on the dead branches was falling, hitting Xiao Yuanxiao's head, and the broken snow was scattered on the shoulders of the rabbit-haired little cloud, looking more like a delicious dumpling.

"Bi Fang, I'm a bit reluctant to leave."

Shen Lu had two pear dimples hanging on her cheeks, and her mood index was full.

"Then come back after finishing the business. However, please think about it, Shang Qi is not a real family member after all. You can't stay here forever, right? He will get married and have children in the future, and he will grow old..."

Shen Lu: "I'll take care of the nursing home for him. When he grows old, we agreed."

But is it really possible?She is immortal, but Shangqi is not.Doesn't he really think of himself as a monster?Even if he can't, won't his family?

Maybe, I still can't do it myself.Maybe one day I can return to the world that Bi Fang mentioned, but I missed the appointment.

Seeing Shen Lu's lonely expression, Xiao Yuanxiao shook her arm: "Sister Lu, don't worry, my plum wine must be sweet!"

There are not many people in the Shangfu, except Shangqi, the master, and the cook Zhao Tongjuan's family. The cook, Yuan Zhen, looks after the door of the Shangfu.

It was this kind of simplicity and warmth that made Shen Lu feel nostalgic and felt at home.Even if Shangqi can send her to the officials for investigation at any time, she can't hate this place.What's more, Big Brother Shang is very affectionate, even if strictly speaking they owe each other nothing, and everyone has saved someone's life, Shang Qi will not treat her as an insignificant assassin.
