138 These Businessmen Were Too Evil

After dinner, Bai Wutong wiped the table, and Chu Tianbao washed the dishes. After placing the bowls and chopsticks back, he carried the bamboo basket and went out with Xiaobai.

Bai Wutong glanced out of the window and thought that he was going out to play, so she did not bother about him.

After a while, Cui Lingyi came over. She had made a new box of rouge for Bai Wutong.

Bai Wutong glanced at the color of the rouge. It was red, but not gaudy. It was quite beautiful and smelled good.

!!

Cui Lingyi smiled and asked. “How is it?”

Bai Wutong nodded. “Thank you. I love it.”

Before the apocalypse, she had also been a makeup artist and knew how to make some natural and non-comedogenic cosmetics. Cui Lingyi had made them with ancient recipes, so they were obviously much better than hers.

This color was specially made for Bai Wutong. The more Cui Lingyi looked at the Bai Wutong’s porcelain and flawless skin, the more she wanted to try it on her. “Sit down, I’ll put on some makeup for you.”

Thinking that she had nothing to do that day, Bai Wutong decided to let her be.

As Cui Lingyi put on makeup for her, she asked, “Little Phoenix, what are the wild vegetables you gave me? They’re quite delicious.” Before she could take two bites, the rest of the Cui family rushed to finish them.

She had come to look for Bai Wutong firstly to give her a gift, and secondly, to show her appreciation on behalf of everyone. She wanted to ask where the toona was found, and they also planned to pick some.

Bai Wutong only gave some to Cui Lingyi and it was cleared in a few go. The food was so delicious that it hooked everyone’s souls.

Bai Wutong could tell that she was still thinking about the toona. She opened her eyes and smiled. “I’ll take you to pick it later.”

Cui Lingyi’s delicate eyes were filled with joy. “That’s great.”

When they left the house and arrived at the toona tree, they saw that the entire huge tree had no more sprouts left.

Meanwhile, Chu Tianbao was sitting under the toona tree, tying all the toona sprouts with hemp rope like what Bai Wutong did.

Bai Wutong walked up to him. “Tianbao, why did you pick all the toona?” There were so many of it that they could not finish.

Chu Tianbao chuckled and said happily, “Toona is very good for your body. Tianbao is going to pick more. If you eat more, your body will recover quickly.”

Bai Wutong was stunned. A complicated look flashed in her eyes. She squatted down and said to him, “Thank you, Tianbao.”

Chu Tianbao had shaved the entire tree. Under his pained gaze, Bai Wutong gave some more to Cui Lingyi and returned with a pile of toona that Chu Tianbao carried back.

She had tidied up the things in the RV space, so she could store some toona. However, it was still not appropriate to take out food that was not found during the season.

Bai Wutong planned to wash all these toona and make them into toona sauce. In the future, they could eat them as topping with rice.

Stinky, who was about to turn one year old, grew very quickly. He could even stand up unsteadily on the ground.

He had seven teeth now and would eat anything he saw.

His favorite thing to do was to dig out Chu Tianbao’s pocket and see if there were any snacks given by Bai Wutong.

Chu Tianbao had been eating snacks too frequently some time ago, so Bai Wutong hadn’t made them for a long time.

Stinky didn’t manage to eat it either. After being hugged by Chu Tianbao, he flipped around again and didn’t manage to find anything. He patted Chu Tianbao’s shoulder in dissatisfaction and strongly expressed that he wanted to eat candy.

Chu Tianbao didn’t even have anything to eat, let alone Stinky.

The father and son hugged each other pitifully. Bai Wutong chuckled and said, “I’ll make you some snacks today.”

Bai Wutong went to the kitchen beam to take down a few dried corn, intending to make them a bowl of popcorn.

After breaking the corn kernels off the corn, Bai Wutong lit a fire with charcoal in the courtyard.

Lin Yue asked curiously, “What is Madam going to cook? Grill meat?”

At the mention of grilled meat, his eyes lit up. The grilled meat that Bai Wutong had treated everyone to last time still lingered in his mind.

Sheng Huaixuan glanced at him and Lin Yue immediately shut up.

Bai Wutong put the iron pot on the charcoal fire and smiled. “No, I’ll make some snacks for everyone. We can eat hotpot tonight and eat the snacks when we’re playing cards.”

The backyard had some vegetables grown. She also used potatoes and sweet potatoes to make potato noodles and broad noodles. This time, they could have a more sumptuous meal in hotpot.

Upon hearing the word ‘pot’, Lin Yue’s eyes widened and the smile on his face rose so high that it almost reached the skies.

Bai Wutong was good at cooking. Even her hotpot was better than the others.

Sheng Huaixuan smiled unconsciously. “Sister-in-law, is there anything I can help you with?”

If they wanted to eat sooner, he naturally had to be proactive.

Bai Wutong did not stand on ceremony with them. “Go to the backyard and help me pick some green onions and lettuce.”

Sheng Huaixuan and Lin Yue rolled up their sleeves and headed to the backyard.

Qingfeng wanted to go too, but Bai Wutong stopped her and asked her to call Cui Lingyi and Cui Muzhi to come over for dinner. She was also asked to head to the fish pond to catch two fish to make fishballs later.

Qingfeng nodded. The oil was hot enough to make popcorn.

Bai Wutong added a lot of sugar to the pot and kept stirring before pouring in the dried corn.

This kind of corn was most suitable for making popcorn. Not long after Bai Wutong poured them in, a corn kernel popped in the pot.

Stinky was stunned by the sound. Another corn jumped. Stinky reacted and climbed onto Chu Tianbao.

Bai Wutong quickly put the lid on the pot.

“Pop pop pop—”

The corn bounced one after another in the pot lid, producing a constant sound of firecrackers.

Stinky was no longer so afraid. He even widened his eyes to look at the thing in the pot and wanted to get off Chu Tianbao.

Afraid that the popcorn would stick together, Bai Wutong held the handle of the pot and shook it hard.

There was a constant sound like cannon firing. Stinky laughed uncontrollably.

Chu Tianbao also looked surprised. He didn’t understand why such a half a bowl of corn would suddenly expand and fill an entire pot.

...

Smelling the sweet scent of corn in the air, he unconsciously picked up a popcorn that had popped out of the ground and tried to stuff it into his mouth.

Stinky’s sharp eyes noticed the thing in his hand. He reached out to snatch it, and his legs kept kicking. He looked like he would not let him off if Chu Tianbao did not give it to him.

Chu Tianbao glanced at the popcorn and generously sent it into his mouth.

After tasting the sweetness, Stinky suddenly quietened down. He used his chubby hand to take out the mouthful of popcorn that he could not finish and chewed it slowly.

His smile was sweet as he savored deliciously.

Chu Tianbao was envious.

Fortunately, he didn’t have to wait long.

After a series of crackling sounds, the pot lid was forced open by the popcorn. Only then did Bai Wutong remove the lid.

The sweet smell of corn made one involuntarily inhale sharply.

In the backyard, Lin Yue smelled it and sniffed hard. He asked Sheng Huaixuan, “Master, do you smell it? It smells so good—”

Sheng Huaixuan smiled and said, “It should be a snack made by Madam.”

...

Lin Yue sighed and said, “It smells too good!” Then he urged, “Master, you’re too slow. Look at me, like me!”

Lin Yue finished plucking a small bundle of green onions as if he was afraid that others wouldn’t know that he wanted to eat the snacks quickly.

The big pot of golden popcorn looked very appetizing.

Bai Wutong picked one up and placed it in Chu Tianbao’s mouth.

The sweet popcorn was still warm. It was at its best timing to eat.

Bai Wutong also pinched one and put it in her mouth. She asked with a smile, “It’s delicious, right?”

Chu Tianbao nodded quickly without saying anything. It was enough to prove how much he liked popcorn.
