Chapter 80: Yongyong Mingyan
I see you as the object of the future, and you look at me and think of your mother???
Gu Yu looked at Pei Yan, the green tendons on her forehead jumped suddenly, and she was speechless for a while.
Pei Yan didn't notice anything, looked at the boiling pot in front of Gu Yan, gently curled the corners of his lips, and added: "Your serious appearance just now suddenly reminded me of my childhood, every time I was sick, my mother would cook me mushroom soup to drink. ”
Hearing this, Gu Yu retracted her distant thoughts and followed his words: "It's very warm like this... And where is your mother now? Will she still cook soup for you?"
Pei Yan shook his head lightly and said lightly: "My parents died when I was seven years old. ”
Suddenly hearing such shocking news, Gu Yu was almost choked by her own saliva, and hurriedly raised her hand to cover her lips and coughed lightly, looking at Pei Yan apologetically: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to ask about this ......"
"It's okay, it's been twenty years. Pei Yan stretched out his hand to extinguish the gas stove and looked at Gu Yan with relief, "It's just that I suddenly thought about it just now, and I unconsciously felt a little emotional... If you don't talk about that, what do you want me to do next, do you need me to cut the brisket?"
The topic changed too suddenly, Gu Yu still didn't come back to her senses from the amazing news just now, she was stunned when she heard the words, and subconsciously replied: "Hmm? Okay..."
Pei Yan glanced at her, stepped forward and reached out to take the big colander she was holding, but at this moment, the fingers of the two touched slightly between the electric light and flint, making a faint crackling sound of electricity.
There was a sudden pinprick-like stinging pain at the knuckles, Gu Yu couldn't help but let out a low "hiss", and subconsciously retracted her hand.
Pei Yan also quickly retreated, looked at his fingers that were electrocuted by static electricity, and smiled helplessly: "Sorry, I forgot to wear a wool jacket today." ”
Gu Yan also smiled and pulled her collar when she heard this, "What a coincidence, the cashmere sweater I just bought." ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, and the atmosphere suddenly returned to the previous ease and pleasure. Chef Gu Yan, Pei Yan worked hard, cooperated tacitly, and finally served tonight's dinner to the table before it was completely dark.
Looking at the steaming two meat and two vegetables on the table and Gu Yu who sat down opposite him with his apron, Pei Yan couldn't help but raise his hand and touch the position of his chest.
"What's wrong?" Gu Yu pulled up all her long hair, took a clean chopstick as a hairpin to fix it, and quipped when she saw this, "The food I cooked is so fragrant, Mr. Pei, are you so moved?"
Pei Yan nodded, "It's been a long time since I've sat at my own table like this face-to-face and eaten home-cooked food, here," he patted his heart lightly, "It's warm." ”
Gu Yan smiled when she heard this, and put a piece of beef brisket in his bowl, "This is the unique charm of fireworks in the world, which can bring warmth and hope to people." Otherwise, how can you say that when you come home from a hard day's work, the best thing is just a hot dinner, and there is some truth in the old saying. ”
Pei Yan gently bowed his head, raised his chopsticks to put this tempting color of beef brisket into his mouth, and chewed and tasted it slowly.
"How is it, it's not bad, right?" Gu Yu held her chin with one hand and looked at him expectantly.
He didn't say a word, only took another piece and put it in his mouth, feeling the soft but not losing the tendon of beef brisket wrapped in mellow and fragrant soup and the sweetness of rock sugar sliding smoothly all the way into his stomach, he couldn't help but squint slightly with enjoyment, and only looked at Gu Yu after a while, put down his chopsticks, gave a thumbs up and praised seriously: "Gu Yu, I didn't expect that I still underestimated you, this radish stewed beef brisket is perfect." ”
Seeing his serious expression after just tasting the Michelin chef's work, Gu Yu couldn't help laughing, "Teacher Pei's high comment really flattered me, but there is also your credit in this dish, so this 'perfect' should also be given to you." As she spoke, she picked up the juice on the side and gently gestured to Pei Yan.
Pei Yan raised the corners of his lips happily, clinked glasses with her, and suddenly said, "Since we are friends now, then don't call me 'Teacher Pei' in the future, it's too rusty." ”
Gu Yu had this intention, "Okay, then what am I going to call you in the future?"
"No, I don't. Pei Yan paused, and a dark light crossed his eyes, "Call me Yongming." ”
Gu Yu didn't understand, and blinked a little puzzled, "What?"
"Yongming, taken from 'Yongyong Mingyan, the beginning of the rising sun'. As he spoke, the hand holding the chopsticks clenched involuntarily with nervousness, "It's my watch, you can call me that." ”
Gu Yu met his deep eyes, was stunned for a moment, and slowly spoke: "Pei... Yongming?"
He bowed his head, "Yes." ”
Gu Yan smiled, "It's so good." ”
"Pei Yongming... Yong Ming ......" She looked at him and repeated softly, her delicate little face full of joy, and her eyes shone like amber sealed with the brightest stars in the world.
Pei Yan met her eyes, and unconsciously laughed slowly.
In Pei Yan's heart, there has always been a hidden and unknown barren place in the deepest part, which was originally dark and dead, without a trace of life, and even the air seemed to be completely frozen. However, today, a warm light broke through the time of twenty years and shone on this land.
Where the light fell, a delicate rose bloomed.
This rose has a name, it's called Gu Yu.
