Chapter 10 Solitude is innocence
The tea is the tea made by the housekeeper Lao Huang himself, and the dim sum is the shortbread made by the housekeeper Lao Huang himself. The color of the shortbread is golden, crisp but not broken, oily but not greasy, crispy and delicious, with the tea fragrant, sweet and delicious tea, which is delicious and quenches hunger, it is simply irresistible.
And Xu Heng Susu, who had been asleep for two days, didn't realize how hungry he was until he was pulled to the table by Lao Huang.
Facing the piled up of high shortbread and the large bowl of green tea exuding bursts of aroma, under Lao Huang's attentive gaze, Su Su couldn't resist the temptation at first, and ate it quickly one by one, regardless of the image of his daughter's family, and Xu Heng looked at the behavior of the woman next to him, and ate one tentatively with surprise, and he couldn't stop his mouth in an instant as soon as he took his mouth, and ate as fast as Su Su.
In the small room of the housekeeper of the General's Mansion, Lao Huang quietly watched the two young people feasting, as if it was a great satisfaction that the things he made could be eaten.
A large plate of shortbread and a large pot of tea were quickly wiped out by the hungry young man, and the two of them raised their eyes at the same time to look at Lao Huang, who was sitting quietly on a chair by the window, looking unsatisfied, looking forward to the old man being able to bring out another plate of refreshments.
But this old man disappointed the two young people, Lao Huang got up and walked over, while cleaning up the empty plates, he shook his head and smiled: "No, no, no, I just made so much, I thought you couldn't eat it, but I didn't expect it to be enough." Tsk, seeing that neither of you are fat, why is the amount of food so large. ”
"Hehe, I can only blame Uncle Huang for making it so delicious," Su Su smiled embarrassedly, turned around and glared at Xu Heng, who was drinking residual tea beside him, "It's all because you ate so much, so that Uncle Huang didn't have time to eat a piece...... Well, I didn't have enough to eat!"
"Well, do I eat too much?" Xu Heng, who was accused, was calm, without the slightest panic, glanced at the woman beside him, and leisurely spit out a number "twenty-seven", which successfully made the woman blush, "In order to prevent you from being a scoundrel, I counted the number of things I have eaten, and of course, by the way, I also counted for you, what, do you want me to tell me how many pieces you ate?"
"It just so happens that Uncle Huang is also here, let him be a notary, who eats more than Bibi?"
After Xu Heng finished speaking, he deliberately glanced at the woman who was already flushed with anger, and the woman was suddenly annoyed and angry, "You, you!" was speechless for a long time, but with a roll of his eyes, he suddenly walked to Lao Huang's side, grabbed one of his arms, shook it and said coquettishly, "Uncle Huang, Uncle Huang, tell me who eats more!"
Although Su Su has changed from a little girl to a slim beauty, the power of coquettish Dafa has not diminished, which makes Lao Huang very happy, but the young couple flirts and scolds the pretty Lao Huang who has the heart not to participate, so he said haha: "Oh, the lights are dim, the old servant is dizzy, and the young lady and Xu Shaoxia eat so fast, the old servant can't see clearly, even if he can see clearly, he can't say it." ”
Lao Huang wanted to fool the past, but as soon as he finished saying the previous sentence, his arm was shaken twice by Su Su fiercely, so he quickly changed his words, "But our Miss Su is so slim, how can she eat more than Xu Shaoxia, a big man?" ”
Xu Heng, who was completely defeated by the coquettish Dafa, smiled bitterly, so he had to bow his head and admit it, but he took advantage of this to see Su Su's coquettish appearance, this time he admitted defeat and recognized that he was not a loss, seeing Su Su's treacherous smile beside Lao Huang, Xu Heng's heart moved, and his mood suddenly relaxed.
Xu Heng suddenly stood up and walked towards the door.
"What are you going to do?" asked Su Su behind him.
Xu Heng looked back and smiled: "Are you full?" I'll go and eat the next bowl of noodles, the three of us." ”
Su Su, who had tasted Xu Heng's craftsmanship in Leishan Town, still remembered that pot of noodles vividly, and when he heard that Xu Heng was going to cook it himself, Su Su suddenly jumped up: "Okay, okay, I'll help you!"
Su Su, who jumped over all of a sudden, was blocked by Xu Heng with a finger: "This is my top secret, unless I am my daughter-in-law, I will never spread it!"
"If you want to marry me, come along~"
Xu Heng left this sentence and drifted away, Su Su was entangled in place for a long time, and finally snorted coldly, "Who wants to marry you" and turned around and went over to accompany Lao Huang.
The courtyard where Lao Huang, the housekeeper of the General's Mansion, lives is the most inconspicuous one among the magnificent buildings, a small courtyard, a main house and two compartments, one resident, one puts sundries, one puts pots and pans, and the hot stove, and nothing else.
Lao Huang doesn't seem to like to eat and drink in the general's mansion, but whenever he has time, he will cook by himself, and the plate of shortbread and a pot of tea he spent an afternoon making. Xu Heng walked into the kitchen, as if he saw the kitchen of an ordinary family, with fruit and vegetable leftovers and smoky fires, the kitchen of the powerful and incomparably powerful head of the General's Mansion turned out to be the most ordinary one in the entire General's Mansion.
Xu Heng began to make an ordinary pot noodle with a familiar car.
For this ordinary pasta dish that has been made countless times, is it really delicious? Xu Heng didn't think so. And why the little Taoist priest and Jade Shura of Longhu Mountain who tasted it by chance thought it was particularly delicious, Xu Heng didn't know.
The reason why this noodle is favored by Xu Heng is only because it is simple and easy to make, and the taste is not bad, but in Xu Heng's opinion, it should not reach the level that makes the two well-informed famous families full of praise after childhood.
If there is anything really special about this noodle, it's just that he has made it more often and is more familiar. Could it be that just because you have done it too many times, there will be a qualitative change?
The shortbread made by the housekeeper Lao Huang was also delicious, and when Xu Heng was looking for noodles, he found traces left when making shortbread. Then Xu Heng found a lot of shortbread, Lao Huang didn't tell the truth, there were still many shortbreads, enough for two people to eat, but they were all cold. It may not be like Lao Huang when he called the two of them to come, and the shortbread was just the right amount of taste and the best taste.
It seems that this big butler usually eats these shortbreads as his staple food?
Xu Heng repeatedly made pot noodles because it was simple and easy to make, so what is the purpose of the housekeeper Lao Huang eating and making some troublesome shortbread every day?
Maybe there's a special reason.
Xu Heng made a pot of noodles in thought, and when he walked into the room with a rice bowl, Su Su jumped over like a child to pick it up, and just put it on the table, Su Su was not too hot, and began to suck and eat it eagerly.
To be honest, this is the first time Xu Heng has seen such a Su Su, like a child.
is usually as cold as ice, cold and pressing, all emotions are hidden under the cold face, and the character is so stubborn that once he decides on one thing, he will not look back;
And now innocent, eccentric, all moods are expressed on the face, a smile, a smile, a anger, all as you like;
Both are so cute.
The heat of the noodles rose, and through the heat, Su Su's face became blurred, and while eating, he suddenly looked up and smiled at Xu Heng, Xu Heng smiled back, and the girl lowered her head and continued to bow her head and struggle.
This smile Xu Heng had seen before.
On the ninth floor of the Sword Pavilion, it was Su Su who came to him when he was drunk first, and bowed his head to him and kissed him, which made him excited.
However, Xu Heng thought of the Su Su who chased and hid in the jungle of southern Xinjiang together, the Su Su who rescued Shen Yexin with a cold face, the Su Su who let himself help for an unrelated woman, the Su Su who was in the tunnel outside Leijiabao across the demon cave, and the Su Su who was in pain because of his memory...... All those Su Su,
He likes it all!
Su Su ate several bowls, and finally ate enough, the little girl who was sleepy when she was full leaned on Xu Heng's arms, sleepy-eyed, and the young man and the old man sat opposite each other in the dim light.
