Shen Xiaoxiao got up and went to the kitchen. Zheng Chuyang followed behind and said, "There's nothing in the refrigerator. Let's order takeout."
"Takeaway is not nutritious, and I don't want to eat it, so I'd better cook something by myself." Shen Xiaoxiao turned to look at him and asked, "Do you not believe in my cooking skills?"
Zheng Chuyang smiled, "It is an honor for me to eat the food cooked by Mr. Shen."
There was indeed nothing in the refrigerator. Shen Xiaoxiao closed the refrigerator and said, "There is really nothing, so I'll go to the supermarket downstairs to buy something."
Zheng Chuyang said: "Buy it online and it will be delivered directly. Can your legs bear it if you run around again and again?"
Shen Xiaoxiao returned to the living room, took her bag, and said, "My legs are fine now, and they don't hurt much."
Zheng Chuyang said: "Then I will go with you."
Opposite the downstairs of the community, there is a medium-sized supermarket with cheap and various items. Neighbors will come here first.
Shen Xiaoxiao pushed the small shopping cart and walked towards the vegetable area first.
"How about mixing a cold dish with persimmons and scrambled eggs in the evening, and buying a piece of braised pork liver?" she asked, "I don't know how to do anything, and I can handle a simple stir-fry."
Zheng Chuyang said: "It's very rich, just do these."
Suddenly, an aunt stopped in front of the two of them and said excitedly: "Hey, Dr. Zheng, why haven't I seen you these days? Where have you been?" After that, she asked in surprise: "Hey, Dr. Zheng, why haven't I seen you in the past few days?" What's wrong with your forehead and hands?"
Zheng Chuyang took a look and saw that it was Aunt Xu downstairs. She smiled and said, "Ah, I was on a business trip for a meeting before."
"Look, let me tell you, I haven't seen anyone for several days." Aunt Xu said, glanced at Shen Xiaoxiao, and continued to say to him: "Well, my uncle, his legs have become worse these days. It hurts. Last time you went to check it out, it got better. But after taking this medicine, it doesn’t feel good anymore.”
"Okay, I'll show it to you later in the evening after dinner. I need to take more than a dozen doses of this decoction."
"Then I'll be waiting for you at home. Don't forget." Aunt Xu said with a smile.
"Don't forget, don't worry."
"Don't get wet on that end." Aunt Xu asked again and left. Before leaving, she did not forget to glance at Shen Xiaoxiao.
"Do you still treat your neighbors? You have a very good relationship with your neighbors." Shen Xiaoxiao picked up the persimmon and asked casually.
"My parents lived here before, and when I came back, they let me live here. My parents got along very well with the neighbors before, and they all knew that I was a Chinese medicine practitioner. After I moved here, , when they meet and say hello, they will tell me about their family members’ illness while riding in the elevator. As time goes by, I will sometimes come to see a doctor, which is voluntary.”
As soon as he finished speaking, someone behind him patted his shoulder, "Doctor Zheng!"
Zheng Chuyang pursed his lips in pain. He knew it was Brother Wang upstairs without looking back. Shen Xiaoxiao looked back and frowned unhappily.
"Where have you been these past few days? My wife specially made the dumplings for you and brought them to you, but you are not at home either." Brother Wang spoke angrily, then saw his forehead and asked with concern: "Why are you injured?" Already?"
"It's okay, it's just a minor injury." Zheng Chuyang moved his shoulders. This old brother, Wang, was a boxer and his hands were really strong.
"Are you doing anything tonight? Come and have dinner with your siblings at my house. Your sister-in-law cooked the fish today, and I'll come down and buy some coriander." After Brother Wang finished speaking, he smiled at Shen Xiaoxiao again.
Zheng Chuyang said: "Next time, I won't make it today."
"That's fine, I won't disturb the world of you two." After finishing speaking, Brother Wang gave the two of them an ambiguous smile, with an "I understand" expression on his face, and left with a smile.
Shen Xiaoxiao picked out the persimmons and said with a wry smile: "Your neighbors are so enthusiastic, and they also like to mess around with things."
"Well, they all hope that I will end my single life soon." Zheng Chuyang joked.
After returning from the supermarket, Shen Xiaoxiao carried her things to the kitchen and said, "You go out and wait first. I'm slow in making things. If you're hungry, eat something else first."
"Let me help you." Zheng Chuyang didn't want to see her working so hard.
"How can you help? Go to the living room quickly." Shen Xiaoxiao smiled and pushed him out.
Zheng Chuyang looked at the closed kitchen door. Shen Xiaoxiao was busy inside. He felt very sorry and went back to the living room to sit down.
Lu Shaohuai sent him a message, "What are you doing? Xiaoxiao is here?"
Zheng Chuyang pointed at his phone with his exposed finger and said, "Here we come. However, I find that this trick you made is quite unethical."
"Is it immoral? How wonderful." Lu Shaohuai said: "You must have firm beliefs and not be soft-hearted."
Zheng Chuyang read the text he sent, sneered and didn't reply.
He sat for a while, listening to no movement in the kitchen, then got up and went over again.
Shen Xiaoxiao was cutting cucumbers with her head down, moving slowly and looking very clumsy. She cut a few times, put down the kitchen knife, and waved her hand.
Zheng Chuyang looked distressed. When had a young lady ever done these things?
He wanted to open the kitchen door, but he didn't dare to touch it with his hands, and he couldn't muster the strength, so he had no choice but to gently kick it with his feet.
Shen Xiaoxiao turned around when she heard the voice, "What's going on?"
"Open the door." He said from outside.
Shen Xiaoxiao didn't know what he was going to do. He walked over and opened the kitchen door and asked, "What are you doing? I'm making dinner here. Please don't disturb me if you have nothing to do."
Zheng Chuyang was so moved that he suddenly stepped forward and hugged her, feeling extremely guilty.
"Xiaoxiao, let me tell you the truth. In fact, my hands were damaged by Shaohuai."
Shen Xiaoxiao was confused, "He did it? Then he didn't do it on purpose, right?"
"No, he did it on purpose." Zheng Chuyang hugged her hard again, "He deliberately took my hand and put it on the edge of the pot to burn it."
When Shen Xiaoxiao heard this, she wanted to ask him what was going on, but she was hugged tightly by him.
"Why would he do this?" she asked confused.
Zheng Chuyang pondered for a moment, "He wants me to be miserable and ask you to take care of me. He said we can reconcile quickly like this."
No matter what, just do it all, otherwise you really won’t be able to bear the guilt and condemnation.
After listening to it in his arms, Shen Xiaoxiao sneered, "Hehe", "Thankfully he can think of it!"
"Let me go." She said coldly.
Zheng Chuyang said: "Xiaoxiao, don't be angry, he also has good intentions."
"Hurry up and let me go!" Shen Xiaoxiao reiterated.
"Xiaoxiao, I admit that I didn't object to his proposal at first, and I thought it was very feasible. However, after you came here, you were busy shopping for food and cooking, and I looked at you busy in the kitchen. I feel sorry for you. You have lived a life of luxury since you were a child. When did you do this? It makes me feel bad."
"Zheng Chuyang, please let me go!" After hearing what he said, Shen Xiaoxiao couldn't wait to break out of his arms, turned around and walked towards the kitchen, saying angrily: "My spinach is almost boiled, why are you still here?" Hold me and don’t let go!”
