Chapter 184: Refining Oil
"There's hot water inside, go wash up quickly..."
Lao Lu looked at him with disdain for a few times before speaking.
With a clang, the two children put down the buckets and ran hurriedly to the kitchen.
"The weather this year is a bit strange. It's only August and I'm already feeling cold..."
Lao Lu suddenly shook his body. He had gotten up in the middle of the night last night to look for a quilt to cover himself.
This situation is really rare.
"What's so strange about this? It's normal for the temperature to drop during a typhoon."
Xu Yiyi dragged the whale meat under the eaves.
Turn around and release Sihai.
The child ran out of the house and stood in front of Xu Yiyi.
Looking at her with resentful eyes.
"Sister, you lied to me!"
Sihai pouted, his face full of grievance.
……
"Your elder sister is just like that. She's been lying to you for a long time..."
Lao Lu wrinkled his nose and sneezed suddenly.
Leaning under the eaves in a disorderly manner.
"Bah! I don't allow you to talk about my elder sister."
Sihai bit his lips and stared at Lao Lu fiercely.
"Hey, you little kid, how can you be so angry?"
Lao Lu glared and stomped his feet on the ground, making a thumping sound.
Sihai curled his lips as if he was about to cry.
Lao Lu quickly surrendered, "Okay, okay, I won't say anything more. I won't say anything more."
Lao Lu snorted and turned his head to the side.
"That's what it is."
Sihai muttered to himself and turned to look at Xu Yiyi.
"The waves outside are too big. You are so small that you will be washed away."
Xu Yiyi explained lightly and reached out to touch the child's head.
Just as he was about to speak, the four aunts and Xu Anyang couldn't help but interrupt.
"Do you remember Li Hongyi from the sesame oil shop? He was also taken there by Boss Li. Guess what happened in the end?"
Xu Anyang swallowed his saliva, his eyes still a little frightened.
Sihai's attention was also drawn by his words.
"What's wrong?"
There was curiosity and a hint of imperceptible fear in the child's eyes.
"When the wave came, he was holding onto the stone pillar and was swept away along with the pillar."
It was swept away right in front of him.
However, how could the small stone pillar withstand the power of heaven and earth? It broke with a "crack" and Li Hongyi was instantly swept into the waves.
The small figure rose and fell between the crests and troughs of the waves, and the cry for help was instantly drowned out by the sound of the wind and waves.
When they came back, Boss Li was still crying.
He brought out his healthy son to join in the fun.
In the end, it just disappeared.
Xu Anyang didn't say it so bluntly.
But how could a child who was born and raised by the sea not understand it?
Sihai instantly understood that Li Hongyi might not be able to come back.
"With such strong winds and waves, a little kid like that would have been knocked unconscious the moment he went down. Your elder sister was right not to let you go. You're a playful uncle, and you definitely won't behave if you go.
Aunt Arong said this bluntly.
Sihai is currently the most playful child in the family and is always naughty.
"Sister, you are so kind to me..."
When Sihai heard this, his eyes turned red instantly and he threw himself on Xu Yiyi.
"Hey! I'm covered in the stinking blood of whales. I'm so dirty..."
Xu Yiyi wanted to step back, but Sihai grabbed her clothes tightly.
“It doesn’t stink, it doesn’t stink, not at all…”
Sihai shook his head frantically and sniffed like a puppy.
Lao Lu stood aside with a look of disgust. He could smell the scent of Xu Yiyi from two miles away.
Only the little brat Sihai's nose is "broken".
……
"Why bring this whale meat back if you're not going to sell it?"
Lao Lu shifted his gaze from Xu Yiyi to the whale meat, which was even more smelly than her.
"This whale must have died a long time ago and washed ashore. It stinks..."
It seemed like a pile of rotten fish, with a strong smell of internal organs.
Just at this moment, the wind blew, and the stench wave rolled through the rain curtain and spread in the yard.
The smell makes one's stomach churn and one just wants to stay away from this stench.
Xu Anyang also saw that Xu Yiyi didn't sell it, so he brought it back together.
If it hadn't rained, the smell would have been even worse.
"Refining oil. I want whale oil."
Xu Yiyi had been thinking about this good thing for a long time, but she couldn't find it or buy it.
"It stinks—"
Lao Lu's face was full of disgust.
Xu Yiyi ignored her, got some hot water and went into the bathroom.
The bathtub is filled with steam and the warm fragrance still lingers.
Xu Yiyi carefully scrubbed the fishy smell off her body, and Er'er helped her to get water twice before rinsing it off.
"Sister, let me cut your nails..."
Er'er came in holding a pair of big scissors and sat on the bed, eager to try.
"These nails stink. If you don't believe me, just smell them. They can't be washed off at all."
When Er'er said this, his little face wrinkled and looked disgusted.
"I also want to help my elder sister cut her nails."
Sihai's chubby body was trying to squeeze in through the crack in the door. When Er'er saw it, he immediately put on a stern face, trying to scare the child.
"If you can't even cut your own hair properly, don't join in the fun."
Er'er said angrily that she finally had the chance to talk to her elder sister, but Sihai came to make trouble.
"Then I'll help Big Sister wipe her hair."
The child ran eagerly to get a clean towel and stood in front of the bed watching.
"Si Hai, come out with me. Stop clinging to Big Sister."
Sanchuan walked in and pulled the little fat boy out.
"But I want to wipe his elder sister's hair."
The child held onto the door panel and refused to move. "Then can you wipe it for the third brother as well?"
Sanchuan lowered his head and said this, and Sihai looked up.
Then he said reluctantly, "Okay."
……
In the room, Wu Yuan was lying beside Xu Yiyi's legs with a frown on his face.
He looked very uncomfortable.
"Sister, Wu Yuan doesn't like the taste."
Er'er said with a smile and put her cut nails under Wu Yuan's nose.
The child looked up with an aggrieved look and curled his lips.
Almost vomiting.
Er'er helped Xu Yi to cut off his nails which were filled with whale blood and whale meat.
The two sisters sat on the bed and chatted idly.
Because it was a typhoon day, the sky was gloomy.
The room was darker than usual.
The child woke up and fell asleep again as they talked.
It was raining heavily and there were hardly any people on the streets.
Just when Xu Yiyi thought she could rest today, Xu Anyang suddenly came to call her.
"Sister Yiyi, there's an adult outside looking for you."
Xu Anyang stood at the door and knocked.
"It was Lord Lin who rescued us that day."
Xu Anyang suddenly remembered something and quickly reminded.
"Lin Ke?"
Xu Yiyi said secretly, a trace of doubt flashed through his heart.
Suddenly she remembered what Lin Ke asked her for help when he was sending Duoyu away.
"Got it, I'll be right there..."
Xu Yiyi responded, quickly changed her clothes and tied up her loose hair.
In the lobby, Lin Ke sat facing the window.
At just one glance, Xu Yiyi felt that he seemed to have a lot on his mind.
