Chapter 113: Look Down

It's so delicious! After Xie Fuya swallowed the roast lamb, there was still the aroma of meat and condiments between her teeth and cheeks, which made her saliva overflow!

Turning around, Xie Fuya looked at Cheng Song with bright eyes, and praised: "It's delicious." ”

Cheng Song stood there as if he had been pointed, looking at Xie Fuya's bright smile, and his red lips stained with a few condiments opened and closed and said something, but he didn't hear it at all as if he was deaf.

Zhao Xi and Xie Zhuo walked over from a distance, talking and laughing, followed by four or five subordinates holding the wine jar in their arms.

"Ziyu!" Zhao Xi shouted with a smile, "Cousin Zhuo brought a few jars of old wine from their Zhuangzi, just in time for barbecue!"

Cheng Song came back to his senses violently, and the gaze that was glued to Xie Fuya's body broke away and glanced at the grass. He gasped for breath only to realize that he had just held his breath!

Xie Fuya looked at Cheng Song, who seemed to be uncomfortable, with a puzzled expression, she just asked him how the mutton was simmered and what was in the dipping sauce, he looked at himself with a stunned look and didn't answer, could it be that he wanted to tell others what the secret recipe was?

Zhao Xi walked over and saw Cheng Song's face flushed and uncomfortable, so he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Ziyu, what's wrong with you?"

Cheng Song waved his hand, and said with a dodgy look in his eyes: "I'll go change into convenient clothes and come over again." ”

Zhao Xi looked at Cheng Song's dark robe inexplicably, is there anything wrong?

Cheng Song threw down the things in his hand, covered his mouth and nose with one hand and ran away.

Zuo Chen, who was roasting meat by the fire, saw the master leaving quickly, frowned and wanted to follow, but there was no one here who could barbecue meat, he and the master both threw it down and left, this meat was not roasted yet!

"Master Xi, what's wrong with my second master?" Zuo Chen had to ask Zhao Xi.

Zhao Xi's face was also confused, "I don't know, when I came back, I saw that his face was flushed, and he said that the clothes on his body were uncomfortable, and he wanted to go back and change them." ”

Zuo Chen put his mind at ease, "I think it's hot and busy, and the second master feels hot and goes back to change clothes." ”

Zhao Xi also thought so, so he didn't take it to heart.

Xie Fuya was interested in the roast lamb slices, took a wooden stool and sat beside the charcoal fire rack, held the meat slices with chopsticks and placed them on the grate, listening to the sound of the meat finding the sizzle, and then white smoke rose, and the fragrance immediately wafted out.

Zhao Xi turned around and saw Xie Fuya roasting lamb slices, and walked over with some surprise.

"Cousin can barbecue?" Zhao Xi looked at Xie Fuya slightly clumsily turning over the meat slices, "This meat was bought by Ziyu yesterday and slaughtered and simmered overnight, so I think it has already tasted." ”

Xie Fuya has tasted it herself, and of course she knows the deliciousness of this slice of meat. She learned Cheng Song's previous technique to bake two slices of meat into a dark color, then sandwiched them, dipped them in the dish next to her, and then put them in an empty dish.

"You taste it. Xie Fuya handed her roasted meat to Zhao Xi.

Zhao Xi was flattered and took the plate, "Thank you, cousin." ”

Picking up a pair of chopsticks and picking up the meat and putting it in his mouth, Zhao Xi chewed it twice and felt that it was a little old, and there were too many condiments......

"It's delicious!" Zhao Xi gave a thumbs up and praised against his will, "It's delicious!"

Xie Fuya's eyes lit up, "Really, it's the first time I've grilled meat like this, and I just tasted a piece and thought it was delicious." In the future, you can make it and eat it at home, but ......"

"Just what?" Zhao Xi swallowed the meat and looked at Xie Fuya with raised eyebrows.

Xie Fuya's beautiful eyes turned slightly and said: "I just don't know what method Cheng Shizi used to simmer mutton, and what is in this dipping material." If you mess around, I'm afraid you're wasting good things. ”

"What's so difficult about this?" Zhao Xi said with a smile, "When Ziyu comes back after changing his clothes, I'll ask my cousin." ”

"That's good. Xie Fuya smiled, "I will also invite you to eat barbecue when I have a chance in the future." ”

Zhao Xi was secretly happy when he heard this, lowered his head and pursed his lips and smiled.

Over there, Xie Zhuo and Zuo Chen were learning how to roast rabbits and lamb legs, and they almost fell into the fire clumsily, scaring Zuo Chen out of a cold sweat, thinking about why the master didn't come back!

Cheng Song returned to his house in Zhuangzi, he was sweating all over, and his heart was beating fast and heavy!

After a moment of silence in the room, he came out and scooped two basins of cold water from the vat in the courtyard and poured them on his head!

"World ...... Shizi?" The subordinate stared wide-eyed at Cheng Shizi, who was drenched from head to toe, and took off his clothes and threw them to the ground, revealing his lean and sturdy upper body!

Cheng Song poured another basin of water from his head! The cold water sparked on his skin, reducing the heat on his body and the thoughts that kept surging up in his brain!

The wet hair kept dripping, and the water beads slowly slid down from Cheng Song's fair skin, although the young man's body was not as strong and powerful as an adult, but it was a little more powerful than the thinness of his peers!

Cheng Song's skin belongs to the kind that will not turn black no matter how he tosses, and he was ridiculed a lot in the army for this. It's just that those who laughed at him were finally overwhelmed by the fists and his record.

After calming down, Cheng Song dragged his wet body into the house and ordered his subordinates to find new inner and outer clothes.

The subordinate did not dare to squeak, and after finding his clothes, he withdrew.

Cheng Song dried his hair and body, put on his inner and outer clothes, changed his boots, and stood in front of the bronze mirror to confirm that he had returned to normal before going out.

It must be that he has not gone to the barracks to practice martial arts for a long time due to illness, so that his blood is too strong.

Cheng Song made an excuse for his own gaffe, and planned to go to Nandaying to find the brothers who stayed behind to beat him up after returning to the capital!

When he returned to the barbecue, Cheng Song had completely returned to normal and joined Xie Zhuo and Zhao Xi.

Xie Fuya was learning to roast mutton slices attentively, and a large plate of meat slices had already been half roasted by her! She let Xie Zhuo, Zhao Xi and Zuo Chen try every slice she baked, although they all said that it was good, but their expressions seemed to be quite choked when they swallowed.

So Xie Fuya roasted a piece of meat for herself, and when she put it in her mouth to chew, she found that the roast had been hot for a long time, the meat had become hard and not easy to chew, and the condiments were too stained, and the aroma of the meat was covered by the condiments.

After several attempts, Xie Fuya finally mastered the heat and the amount of dipping ingredients, so she baked a few more slices and put them on a plate, ready to take them to her brother Xie Zhuo and others to taste again.

"Cheng Shizi is back?" Xie Fuya walked over with a plate, and saw Cheng Song standing by the fire turning over the meat on the iron chisel, so she came to him with a plate first, "Taste the meat I roasted." ”

The fragrant fragrance wafted over again, and Cheng Song's body immediately tensed!

Xie Fuya held the plate in front of Cheng Song, looking at him with anticipation in her big eyes.

Cheng Song dodged to the side and said coldly: "Thank you county lord, I don't want to eat it for the time being, you can give it to Fourth Master Xi and Brother Ling." ”

Xie Fuya was stunned for a moment, looking at the obvious expression of rejection on Cheng Song's face, the smile on her face froze.

Zhao Xi was smiling at Xie Fuya and inviting everyone to try the roast mutton slices like a treasure, but after seeing Cheng Song's unceremonious and cold rejection of Xie Fuya and his cousin's embarrassed expressions, he also smiled.

Xie Fuya withdrew her hand, turned away with a faint expression on her face, and did not let Xie Zhuo and Zhao Xi try it.

Coming to the table, Xie Fuya sat down and picked up the roast mutton and put it in her mouth to chew slowly. She ate silently, without making a sound, without looking up at anyone.

Xie Zhuo had a big heart, and he didn't notice the stiff atmosphere between his sister and Cheng Song at all, and only cared about discussing with Zuo Chen how to barbecue.

Zhao Xi glanced at Cheng Song, who was expressionless, and walked towards Xie Fuya.

Cheng Song originally lowered his head to look at the leg of lamb roasted on the fire, and only looked up in the direction where Xie Fuya was sitting after Zhao Xi also left.

Xie Fuya, who was wearing a lilac female riding uniform, combed her hair in a simple bun, and only had pearl flowers on her head, but her face became more and more beautiful despite her simple dress. Before, when she ate meat, her smart expression was like a cute little kitten, tickling people's hearts and wanting to continue feeding, and she also wanted to reach out and touch it......

Zhao Xi came to Xie Fuya's side, bowed his head and said something to her, Xie Fuya raised her head and responded with a smile. From a distance, it looks like a good pair, and they are a good match!

"Second master?" Zuo Chen called Cheng Song from the side.

"Huh?" Cheng Song came back to his senses and turned his head to look at Zuo Chen.

Zuo Chen also looked in the direction of Zhao Xi and Xie Fuya, and said softly: "Lord Xi seems to be ...... to the county lord Forgive the little talk, it's not good for Xi Ye to have something happen to the county lord in this Zhuangzi, when the time comes, the capital will be calculated, I'm afraid it will be ......"

"I know, I don't need to say more. Cheng Song frowned and interrupted Zuo Chen's reminder, "We'll go back to Beijing tonight." ”

Zuo Chen was a little surprised, "So urgent?"

"Fourth Master Xi has been away for a long time, and I am afraid that the prince and the princess will miss it. Cheng Song said lightly.

Zuo Chen stopped talking, went back and continued to turn over the meat on the grill and sprinkle salt.

Cheng Song glanced at Zhao Xi and Xie Fuya again, and felt irritable inexplicably. I simply walked to the charcoal fire rack, opened a jar of old wine, poured a bowl and poured it down!

It is worthy of the old wine treasured on the Zhuangzi of Princess Anyang, with a rich aroma and a sweet aftertaste! Cheng Song was still unsatisfied, poured out another bowl, and then sandwiched a roasted mushroom and threw it into his mouth!

A sip of wine and a mouthful of grilled mushrooms or barbecued meat, Cheng Song poured it first and ate it happily!

"Cousin, Cheng Song has been in the barracks since he was a child, and although he is the son of the prince's mansion, his temperament is a little uninhibited. If he offends you in any way, don't take it personally. Zhao Xi explained for Cheng Song.

Xie Fuya flicked the meat on the plate and smiled faintly, "Fang is that I am frivolous, how can I let a man who is not too familiar taste my roasted meat?" It has nothing to do with Cheng Shizi's attitude. ”

Zhao Xi saw that Xie Fuya really didn't look angry, so he was a little relieved.

After Xie Fuya ate all the meat she roasted, she felt that her stomach was uncomfortably swollen, she took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth, and took a sip of tea to relieve her greasyness.

"I'm full. Xie Fuya stood up and said to Zhao Xi, "I'm a little tired, I'll go back to Yunhezhuang to rest first." ”

"Cousin?" Zhao Xi stood up and said with some surprise, "Are you going back now?" and you haven't tasted roast rabbit, roast chicken, and roast lamb leg. ”

Xie Fuya glanced at the fire, and saw her brother Xie Zhuo scurrying around and busy. Looking to the other side, I saw Cheng Song eating happily with a sip of wine and a mouthful of meat.

On the open grass, the men enthusiastically barbecued around the fire and drank freely, this is a comfortable life. She's a woman who doesn't fit in with her.

"I can't eat it, so you can eat it. Xie Fuya said, "Brother Xi looked at my brother more and asked him not to drink too much." ”

Zhao Xi's eyes darkened slightly, "Then I'll send you back cousin." ”

"No need, just let Da Yang, the entourage next to my brother, send me. Xie Fuya declined, "Mo because I have swept away your grandfather's interest. ”

After speaking, Xie Fuya beckoned Da Yang over and asked him to send him back to Yunhezhuang.

Da Yang reported to Xie Zhuo, and Xie Zhuo also came over with some surprise, "Sister, you're going back, there are still a lot of things you haven't eaten." ”

"I have eaten a lot of meat, and now I am full. Xie Fuya said to Xie Zhuo, "Besides, with me by my side, you men can't drink and eat meat freely." I was a little tired from hunting, so I walked back to eat and then took a nap. ”

Xie Zhuo thought about it for a while, and then told Dayang to send the county lord back safely.

Xie Fuya didn't say goodbye to Cheng Song, so she left with Da Yang.

Zhao Xi saw Xie Fuya leave, sighed lightly, and then turned around and walked towards Cheng Song.

Cheng Song had already drunk half a jar of wine, and the remaining half of Xie Fuya's roasted meat was also roasted and eaten into his stomach!

Zhao Xi sat next to Cheng Song, took out a bowl and handed it over, "Trouble Ziyu pour me a bowl of wine." ”

Cheng Song, who was chewing meat in his mouth, turned his head, smiled and lifted the wine jar with one hand, and flipped his wrist, and the amber wine was poured into the porcelain bowl in Zhao Xi's hand.

"It's the first time for the fourth master to drink a bar with a sea bowl?" Cheng Song said with a smile, "I don't know if I can get used to it." ”

Zhao Xi is a child of the royal family, and the etiquette education he received since he was a child is all about etiquette, drinking with bottles or cups, this kind of heroic act of drinking with a bowl is really the first time.

Taking a sip of wine, Zhao Xi was so stimulated by the spiciness of the old wine that his face wrinkled.

Looking at Zhao Xi's uncomfortable expression, Cheng Song laughed.

Zhao Xi's face quickly flushed, and he put down the wine bowl and looked at Cheng Song, "Why did Ziyu have that attitude towards his cousin just now? Although you don't like to get too close to women, you have never lost your manners. My cousin is a county lord anyway, and your disgusting appearance is inevitable...... It's a bit rude. ”

Cheng Song looked into the distance with his eyes, and after taking a sip of wine, he lowered his head and said with a chuckle: "Fourth master, this is to blame me for being rude to the county lord of Jingyi? I just did it unintentionally, if it embarrasses the county lord, I will go back to Beijing later to find an opportunity for me to confess to her." ”

Zhao Xi also took another sip of wine, and said in a deep tone: "Cousin Fuya has just reconciled, and rumors are spreading in Beijing that are unfavorable to her, so she will avoid Zhuangzi in the suburbs when she is in a bad mood." I'm not blaming you, I'm just ...... I just don't want you to look down on your cousin like those people in Beijing who don't know the truth. ”

Cheng Song frowned when he heard this, and turned his head to look at Zhao Xi, whose face was flushed and his eyes were gradually blurred, "Look down on the county lord of Jingyi? Where did the fourth master start with this? I have never had this thought! In this world, if the husband and wife are together, they will be together, and if they are not together, they will be happy with each other, so what right do I have to look down on others." The second master Cai of Chengyibo's Mansion is indeed not a good person, and there is nothing wrong with the county lord of Jingyi and his separation. Those people in Beijing who love the rights and wrongs of others are just idle and chewing their tongues, and it won't take long for them to stop talking. ”

Zhao Xi nodded, and swayed the wine bowl and wanted to drink it again, but was stopped by Cheng Song reaching out.

"The fourth master doesn't want to drink it anymore, this wine is not as light as the wine in Beijing, and it has a lot of stamina. Cheng Song said.

Zhao Xi looked at Cheng Song with somewhat confused eyes, pulled out a mouth at the corner of his mouth, and then waved Cheng Song's hand, holding the wine bowl and raising his head to drink it clean!

Cheng Song raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhao Xi's heavy drinking, thinking that he drank a big bowl of wine without eating a mouthful of food, and he was afraid that he would get drunk soon!

Sure enough, after drinking the wine in the bowl, Zhao Xi's figure shook and almost fell off the stool!

Cheng Song stretched out his hand to help Zhao Xi steady, sighed and called the servants to come over.

"Go to the village and get some sheepskin mats, and a thin blanket. Cheng Song commanded.

The servant was ordered to hurry up to get something, while Cheng Song helped Zhao Xi to sit on the grass on the side and beckoned a servant to take care of it.

After settling Zhao Xi, Cheng Song came to the fire to look at the roasted rabbits, pheasants and leg of mutton, and couldn't help but think of Xie Fuya who had left. She loves roast lamb slices so much, and she must like to eat them too.

"Why did Zhao Xi lie down?" Xie Zhuo asked in confusion.

"After drinking a bowl of old wine that you brought in, Brother Zhuo, I was drunk with too much alcohol. Cheng Song said.

"Drunk after a bowl of wine?" Xie Zhuo shook his head and said, "His alcohol consumption is really bad!"

Cheng Song smiled and didn't say a word, but squatted down and pulled out of the fire with a stick to call the flower chicken.

Xie Zhuo saw a big mud ball coming out of the fire, and asked curiously, "What is this?

Cheng Song didn't answer, but got up and brought a plate over, and picked a stone to smash open the mud shell.

When the crust is peeled off, the aroma of the chicken overflows.

"Oh my God!" Xie Zhuo exclaimed, swallowing a mouthful of saliva violently, "What is so fragrant!"

Cheng Song peeled off the crust clinging to the chicken feathers, and carefully forked the whole chicken with chopsticks and moved it to the plate.

"Chicken, what kind of method is this?" Xie Zuo said excitedly, "It's really a novelty. ”

"Master Zhuo, this is called a flower chicken. Zuo Chen explained the origin and practice of calling Huaji for his master, and Xie Zhuo couldn't help nodding when he heard it.

Cheng Song used a dagger to cut a few more knives on the rabbit body and lamb leg, and then sprinkled condiments, telling Zuo Chen to turn it over a few more times to make the fire of the fire smaller, so that he could eat and drink while slicing meat.

After dealing with these, Cheng Song stood up straight and looked in the direction of Yunhezhuang.

It's been a while since Da Yang sent Xie Fuya away, right? The distance between the two villas is not far, I don't know if Xie Fuya can reach safely at this time.

"I'm going for a walk. Cheng Song said to Zuo Chen and Xie Zhuo, and then raised his legs and walked in the direction of Yunhezhuang.

If you go out from the main gate of Zhuangzi and then go around to Yunhezhuang, it is relatively far, and it is very close to pass through the small forest connected to the two villages. Xie Fuya and Da Yang walked the road of Xiaolinzi, except for the potholes on the ground, there was no danger.

Cheng Song walked into the small forest and raised his eyes to see the outer fence of Yunhezhuang. He didn't see Xie Fuya and Da Yang, thinking that they had already entered Yunhezhuang, so he turned around and prepared to go back.

Cheng ...... Cheng Shizi?" Da Yang's surprised voice came from the other side of the forest.

Cheng Song turned his head to look over, only to see Da Yang coming down from the slope on the east side of the forest covered with sweat, and several places on his clothes were torn by tree branches.

"Why are you here?" Cheng Song frowned and looked at the embarrassed Da Yang, "What about the county lord of Jingyi?"

Da Yang wiped the sweat that slipped to his eyelids with his sleeve, and said a little anxiously: "County Lord...... The county lord stumbled on the edge of the stream above, and the villain ...... The villain didn't dare to move, so he came down and wanted to go back to Zhuangzi to find a few rough mothers-in-law......"

"Did you leave her alone by the stream?" Cheng Song interrupted Da Yang's words with a calm face.

"Huh? yes...... The county lord was alone by the stream, and there was no danger there, so ......" Da Yang was frightened by Cheng Song's gloomy face and eyes, and stammered even more.

Cheng Song was too lazy to talk nonsense, and it was not suitable to accuse and reprimand other people's slaves, so he turned his feet and walked towards the east slope.

To the east of the two villages there is a low hill with a stream and a spring that flows down into the small river that runs through the village. Because the mountains are not high and there are no dense forests, there is really no danger. At most, there will be snakes.

Xie Fuya heard from Zhuangzi yesterday that there is a spring on the mountain in the east, which does not dry up in summer, does not freeze in winter, and springs gush out in all seasons. The water is so cold and sweet that the villagers at the bottom of the mountain will put a bucket of boiling water for cooking almost every day.

On the way back to Yunhe Villa, Xie Fuya remembered this spring, so she temporarily took Da Yang to climb the slope, but when she was walking by the stream, she accidentally hit her foot, and she was so painful that she didn't dare to move! Da Yang was an entourage, and he didn't dare to go back with his master, for fear of ruining his master's reputation, so he had to go down the mountain and prepare to go back to Zhuangzi to find a powerful woman to come up and carry people.

Cheng Song moved fast, and he jumped directly over the hillside and soil puddle without even looking at it, even Da Yang, who had practiced martial arts, couldn't catch up with his pace!

Cheng Song occasionally stopped to listen to the sound to identify the direction of the stream, and found Xie Fuya without much effort.

Xie Fuya sat on the ground by the stream, holding a few stones in her hand and throwing a piece into the stream from time to time, splashing small splashes.

Hearing movement behind her, Xie Fuya was surprised that Da Yang's movements were so fast, and he found someone so quickly. But when I turned around, I saw Cheng Song in a navy blue beard!

Cheng Song came to Xie Fuya's side in a few strides, frowned and squatted down to look at her and asked, "Where is the injury?"

Xie Fuya looked at Cheng Song coldly and shrunk her feet under her skirt.

Seeing this, Cheng Song said "rude" and reached out to lift Xie Fuya's skirt and grabbed her left foot.

Xie Fuya was startled and kicked hard to break away.

"It seems that the county lord didn't hurt this foot. Cheng Song looked up at Xie Fuya and smiled.

"You...... You let go!" Xie Fuya glared at Cheng Song in annoyance, "Dengzi!"

Cheng Song let go of Xie Fuya's left ankle, stood up and turned to her right side, and then carefully lifted her right foot.

"Shhh

Cheng Song raised his eyes and saw Xie Fuya's misty eyes, and immediately lowered his head after a moment.

Ignoring Xie Fuya's resistance, Cheng Song took off her little boots and gently pinched her slender ankles through the cloth socks.

"Ahh

The short cry of pain was like a sharp blade piercing Cheng Song's chest, causing his body to tremble slightly! The throat couldn't help but slide up and down twice, and his breathing gradually became uneven.
