137 Sorry For Being Useless
Without Bai Wutong to comfort him, Chu Tianbao couldn’t stand it anymore. He stood up with a whoosh and pushed everything on the table to the ground.
Gu Zhongxun had seen his astonishing damaging abilities and was afraid that he would destroy his pharmacy. He hurriedly said, “Master, calm down, calm down. If you shake the silver needle off, it won’t have any effect. If it doesn’t have any effect, you won’t be able to regain your memories.”
Bai Wutong smiled bitterly. Chu Tianbao really didn’t want her to know that he wanted to regain his memories.
Just as she was about to leave.
When Chu Tianbao heard that he could not recover his memories after the silver needles came off, he kept saying as if he was hypnotizing himself, “Tianbao can’t move around. Tianbao wants to regain his memories. Tianbao wants to make my wife happy. Tianbao can’t move around. Tianbao wants to regain his memories. Tianbao wants my wife to be happy. Tianbao wants to be like the others. Tianbao doesn’t want to be a fool…”
As he chanted, it was as if he actually gained the strength to endure the pain and he sat down in the chair again.
He was actually doing this for her. Bai Wutong stopped in her tracks. Her heart trembled as if someone was holding it tightly.
She wanted to barge in and comfort him, but in the end, she did not push open the door of the pharmacy. She came silently and left silently.
She had just returned to her room to lie down when there was an almost imperceptible sound at the window. Bai Wutong quickly closed her eyes.
Chu Tianbao still carried cold air on his body. With a whoosh, he crawled under the blanket and skillfully placed his hands and feet where they shouldn’t be.
Bai Wutong sensed the temperature on his skin and pretended to turn over to move away from Chu Tianbao’s wandering hands.
But Chu Tianbao thought she was asleep. He pulled her into his arms fearlessly and kissed her on the lips. He probably didn’t feel satisfied yet as he kissed her a few more times before closing his eyes and putting his head into her fragrant neck.
Bai Wutong felt that his entire body was burning, and he was hugging her too tightly. Just as she was about to pretend to wake up and use the excuse of going to the toilet to break free from his grip, she heard Chu Tianbao’s low and slightly hoarse voice muttering to her, “Wife, Tianbao will definitely recover. When the time comes, let’s make a baby like Stinky, okay?”
Bai Wutong was stunned. She opened her eyes and glanced at the top of Chu Tianbao’s head. She replied in her heart, “Okay.”
Chu Tianbao seemed to share a telepathic connection with her. Satisfied, he rubbed against his fragrant and soft wife.
He subconsciously touched the places that he shouldn’t touch. Bai Wutong’s face turned red and all the pores on her body enlarged.
The hooligan Chu Tianbao even muttered, “My wife is so soft…”
“…”
Bai Wutong blushed. Thinking of how much he had suffered just now, she did not push him away.
…
When Bai Wutong and Chu Tianbao entered the mountain previously, they discovered a huge toona tree. Spring had just arrived, and the tree had sprouted.
Bai Wutong thought preparing fresh and delicious scrambled eggs with toona and prepared to bring Chu Tianbao to pick some.
Before they went, she specially found a bamboo pole and made a net in front of it. This way, they could also pick the toona in higher areas.
Chu Tianbao carried the bamboo pole, Bai Wutong held a bamboo basket in her hands, and Xiaobai followed behind them. When the villagers saw them, they greeted them from time to time. Everything was so peaceful.
After walking into the mountains for a while, Bai Wutong found the camphor tree according to her memory.
Bai Wutong put down the bamboo basket and took the bamboo pole from Chu Tianbao’s hand. She aimed at a clump of toona and with a whoosh, it landed on the ground.
Chu Tianbao picked it up and smelled the strong fragrance of the toona.
He asked, “Wife, can this be eaten too?”
Bai Wutong waved the bamboo pole. In a short while, she used the bamboo pole to cut off many toona sprouts. “Yes, it can be eaten. It’s a delicacy unique to this season. When this season is over, you won’t be able to eat toona sprouts.”
Hearing that it was edible, Chu Tianbao immediately took a bite.
It was bitter in his mouth. He grimaced. “Wife, it’s not delicious.”
Bai Wutong turned around and saw the toona sprout in his hand. She couldn’t help but smile dotingly. “Idiot, this is supposed to be stir-fried with oil. It will be very delicious then.”
“I see.”
Chu Tianbao came to a realization and picked up the toona on the ground in anticipation. Soon, it filled up the entire bamboo basket.
Seeing that there were quite a lot of toona on the trees, Bai Wutong gathered some more with the bamboo pole and asked Chu Tianbao to pick them up and tie them with hemp rope. This way, they could give some to everyone later.
After returning with a full load of toona, everyone asked curiously, “Madam, what is this?”
Everyone had arrived here from other places. They had never seen toona trees nor eaten toona.
Actually, there were very few locals who knew that toona could be eaten.
Bai Wutong smiled and said, “It’s a wild vegetable that can be eaten. It can be used to stir-fry eggs. It’s very delicious.”
Since Bai Wutong said that it was a delicious ingredient, it must be extremely delicious. There were not many vegetables in the early spring. When they saw the toona in Bai Wutong’s hand, everyone had a thought and asked her where there were toona trees. They also planned to try picking some.
When they got home, Bai Wutong organized the toona into small bundles before asking Chu Tianbao to bring them to Cui Lingyi and the others.
Chu Tianbao went out and returned like a whirlwind. Bai Wutong had only started the fire and the oil in the pot had yet to be heated.
As soon as Chu Tianbao returned, he looked eagerly into the pot.
Bai Wutong smiled. “Help me look after the firewood. It’ll be ready soon.”
“Alright, wife.”
Chu Tianbao looked at the stove seriously. Bai Wutong put a piece of lard into the pot, where the oil was heated.
With a whoosh, the egg mixture was poured into the pot. Bubbles filled the pot, and the fragrance of egg was strong.
Bai Wutong stir-fried it in two or three moves and placed the eggs aside. Seeing that there was still enough lard in the pot, she placed some ginger, onions, and garlic into the pot and poured the toona into the pot. After stir-frying, the toona leaves became soft and she poured in the eggs to stir-fry together.
After a while, the fragrance of the toona and the eggs fused perfectly.
It was really too fragrant. Chu Tianbao stared at it intently and almost drooled.
Their lunch was simple. They had sweet potato porridge, fermented tofu, smoked meat and sausages, and freshly made stir-fried eggs with toona.
As the first fresh dish in spring, Bai Wutong was also looking forward to the stir-fried eggs with toona.
She picked up a piece and placed it in Chu Tianbao’s bowl. Chu Tianbao also picked up a piece and placed it by her mouth. “Wife, eat first.”
Bai Wutong was used to it. She opened her mouth and accepted it naturally.
The tender and fragrant toona seemed to have exploded on the tip of her tongue. The tenderness of the egg wrapped around it. It was simply a perfect and invincible delicacy.
Bai Wutong narrowed her eyes. “Delicious.”
Chu Tianbao couldn’t wait any longer. He ate it with his chopsticks and his eyes lit up. After hurriedly swallowing it, he said to Bai Wutong, “It’s really delicious.”
Bai Wutong smiled. “If it’s delicious, eat more. It’s very good for your body.”
Hearing this, Chu Tianbao hurriedly picked up a few more for Bai Wutong. “Wife, you have to eat more. When you get better, we can give birth to Stinky.”
Chu Tianbao was a little disappointed as Stinky became closer to Sheng Huaixuan and was no longer as clingy to Chu Tianbao as before. Recently, he had been continuously asking Bai Wutong when she would recover.
Bai Wutong paused and looked up at him. After a long time, she said, “Yes, it will get better.”
