Chapter 170: The Other Side of the Jade Phase
Speaking of which, since the banquet in the Wanshou Palace that night, Chu Yunsheng was so busy that he flew up, and he hadn't seen Yu Shenyuan these days, whether he came, she also had something to discuss with him. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Thinking about things in his heart, there was no pause in the action of chopping meat stuffing in his hand, and Mu Xuan, who was opposite, saw such a big movement as Chu Yunsheng, stopped the action of stirring noodles in his hand, and said with some surprise: "Girl......"
Chu Yunsheng was thinking about what was on his mind, but he interrupted his thoughts, subconsciously stopped the movements in his hand, raised his eyes and looked at him suspiciously, "What?"
Being stared at by her like this, Mu Xuan's delicate and white cheeks were dyed with a circle of redness, he lowered his head a little embarrassed, avoided the gaze of Chu Yunsheng, and then said, "Actually, I want to say...... You're even heavier than Miss Lin...... If we continue like this...... I'm afraid we won't have a place to make dumplings anymore......"
was mentioned by Mu Xuan like this, and Chu Yunsheng looked down at the board where he was chopping the stuffing...... Sure enough, there was already a small rift...... I don't know if it's Chu Yunsheng's own delusion, she feels that the case pressed under the board is also a little shaky...... Just now, I was still laughing at Lin Yeshuang Woman, but now I was patronizing and thinking about my thoughts, and I didn't grasp the strength in my hand well......
"Ahem...... "This time it wasn't that Mu Xuan was embarrassed, but Chu Yunsheng felt a little embarrassed, she coughed dryly, and when she held the knife again, the force of chopping the minced meat on the board was already more than half smaller.
At this time, Chunxiao had already washed the green onions, walked in front of Chu Yunsheng, and said with a smile: "When did the girl do such work, I still came." ”
As she spoke, without waiting for Chu Yunsheng to refuse, she had already raised her hand to snatch the kitchen knife in Chu Yunsheng's hand, and picked it up in her hand and began to chop it.
Seeing Chunxiao's skillful appearance, Chu Yunsheng had to give up, she raised her eyes and looked at Mu Xuan and Hua Wu, who were very difficult on the opposite side, and was thinking about whether to go over to help, but heard Yu Shenyuan's cool voice outside the door: "Unexpectedly, Yu Gongzi's Chinese New Year's Eve is different." ”
Chu Yunsheng turned around when he heard the sound, and was looking into the eyes that were seductive, compared to the usual smile with three points of calculation and three points of playfulness, today's Yu Shenyuan's eyes actually had a little more warmth.
Warmth?
Chu Yunsheng's eyes widened subconsciously, but when she opened her eyes to take a closer look, Yu Shenyuan had already taken steps and walked into the room, his narrow and bewitching Danfeng eyes swept around the room, and found that there was no decent chair in the small kitchen, only a small low stool, which was the one who sat on the vegetables before Chunxiao.
Seeing Chu Yunsheng standing in front of the desk and had no intention of leaving, Yu Shenyuan frowned, and complained a little: "I don't even have a chair, and the dignified envoy is too stingy." ”
Chu Yunsheng clasped his hands around his chest, looked at Yu Shenyuan and said with a smile: "There is no envoy here today, and there is no Xiangye, don't say that there is no chair, if you want to eat dumplings, you have to do it yourself." ”
As he spoke, Chu Yunsheng turned around, nodded Mu Xuanhe's face in his hand to Yu Shenyuan, and motioned for Yu Shenyuan to help.
Yu Shenyuan was wearing a snow-colored fox fur today, with a moon-white brocade robe inside, and when he saw the black miasma of the small kitchen from a distance, he couldn't help but retreat, at this time, seeing that Chu Yunsheng's intention was to ask him to do it himself, Yu Shenyuan almost didn't even move his eyebrows, and directly refused: "Are you sure you can make dumplings like this?"
Before the words fell, Yu Shenyuan instantly felt several eyes in the room shooting coldly towards him.
He can not care about other people's eyes, but among these eyes, there is also a man of action, Xiao Jingshu, he has already run over from the side of the case, and smiled sweetly at Yu Shenyuan: "Sister said that the dumplings made together taste the most beautiful, big brother, together." ”
As he spoke, he was about to come over and pull Yu Shenyuan's sleeve, without waiting for Yu Shenyuan to let go of Xiao Jingshu's white paw full of flour, Chu Yunsheng had already swept in front of Xiao Jingshu first, blocking the claw he was about to reach over to grab Yu Shenyuan, and at the same time explained to him with a smile: "He's not a big brother, you have to call Xiao Yuzi, or, Xiao Yuanzi, in short, he is a junior, remember?"
Although Yu Shenyuan didn't know that King Wei was his little uncle, it wouldn't be strange to hear King Wei call him his sister and call him big brother, but Chu Yunsheng was awkward, because this invisibly Yu Shenyuan was a generation higher than himself!
As he spoke, Chu Yunsheng pulled his little uncle to the side, and didn't forget to look back at Yu Shenyuan and smiled, "Isn't it, Xiao Yuanzi?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Shenyuan's face darkened.
The corners of his mouth, which was still smiling before, couldn't help twitching.
And Chu Yunsheng had already pulled his little uncle to sit on a small low stool, turned around and beckoned to Yu Shenyuan, raised his eyebrows and said, "What's the matter, Xiao Yuanzi, don't you want to eat dumplings?"
As she spoke, she rolled up her sleeves and walked to the desk, took the gnocchi that Hua Wu had reconciled, and relied on Qin Yunjin's pitiful memory of the dumplings, took the small rolling pin on the table, and began to roll up the dough.
Yu Shenyuan was originally angry by her words, especially the sentence "Xiao Yuanzi", which made him want to throw this stinky girl on the opposite roof, but when he saw her lowering her eyes, she really rolled up the dough decently, such a focused look, and the watery tenderness in her stretched eyebrows when she did things, made his eyes bloom, and overlapped the image in the memory that flashed between the electric light and flint in his heart.
was about to blurt out the sarcastic words, but he couldn't say anything more, Yu Shenyuan lowered his eyes, raised his hand to untie the fox fur he was wearing on his body, threw it aside casually, rolled up his sleeves and walked to the front of the desk, watching Chu Yunsheng roll out the dough, and when she finally rolled out a crooked dough, he bent down to pick it up, took it in his hand, scooped a spoonful of the green onion meat filling that Chunxiao had prepared and began to pinch the dumplings.
This time, it was Chu Yunsheng's turn to be dumbfounded.
She stood beside Yu Shenyuan, watching the crooked dough rolled by her actually seem to be a trick in Yu Shenyuan's hands, and in a blink of an eye, it turned into a fat dumpling, she couldn't believe her eyes.
Asking Yu Shenyuan to make dumplings was just a joke for her, wanting to tease Yu Shenyuan, but where did she know that Yuxiang, who had always had a habit of cleanliness, actually rolled up his sleeves and came over to make dumplings, and he made them so well!
Not only was Chu Yunsheng surprised, but everyone else in the room also subconsciously stopped what they were doing, looking at Yu Shenyuan with surprise and admiration in their eyes.
Lin Yeshuang, who finally lit the fire in the stove, jumped over, pointed to the dumplings that Yu Shenyuan had already wrapped, and couldn't speak: "This ...... This...... Is this really a jade-like dumpling? People like you make dumplings?"
Yu Shenyuan's sleeve swung to his elbow, revealing a smooth and delicate arm like mutton fat jade and a wrist that looked particularly powerful with clear bones, and when he heard Lin Yeshuang's question, he also fell on the dumpling that had been wrapped, and his eyes were a little stunned that Chu Yunsheng couldn't read: "Making dumplings on Chinese New Year's Eve is not only the custom of your Chu people. ”
"So, Yuxiang also made dumplings with your mother on Chinese New Year's Eve when he was a child?" Lin Yeshuang asked as she blurted out while scrubbing her over-fire paws with the wet towel she found.
As soon as he heard her question, Chu Yunsheng, who was standing beside Yu Shenyuan, was shocked.
She raised her eyes suspiciously, looked up at Yu Shenyuan's wrist, her gaze swept over the delicate collarbone of his half-open shirt, and finally fell on his long eyelashes like butterfly wings, only to hear him spit out two words very slowly, "Yes." ”
Yes?
Hearing such an answer, Lin Yeshuang was not surprised, she jumped to Chu Yunsheng's side, took the dough that Mu Xuan had already rolled over there and began to make dumplings, but here Chu Yunsheng's heart set off a lot of waves.
She knew almost nothing about Yu Shenyuan's past, and she had known him for so long, although she was not a friend, but she was also an ally, but she had never heard him mention her past, a person like him, always wearing a mask when he met people, beware of everyone seeing through his heart, and refused to allow anyone to approach him.
What will his past look like?
I don't know if it's Chu Yunsheng's illusion, when she heard the two words of Yu Shenyuan's affirmation, she felt that there was a touch of heartache in Yu Shenyuan's eyes.
And even that touch of heartache was her delusion, when Lin Yeshuang inadvertently mentioned that he made dumplings with his mother when he was a child, the amazement on his face was so real.
However, without waiting for Chu Yunsheng to think about it again, Yu Shenyuan had already raised his hand and patted her forehead, and quipped: "What do you think? Could it be that Young Master Yu also thought of himself when he was a child? Speaking of which, how did Young Master Yu come over on Chinese New Year's Eve when he was a child? Is there dumplings to eat in the barracks?"
With this beat, the flour on his hands fell on Chu Yunsheng's forehead, and instantly slapped Chu Yunsheng into a big face, and the little uncle on the side clapped his hands and laughed.
Knowing that he was testing again, Chu Yunsheng glared at him, and did not argue, only lowered his head and began to roll out the dough numbly.
She didn't speak, Yu Shenyuan seemed to have something on her mind, and didn't speak again, both of them were silent, but one rolled the dough and the other wrapped dumplings, which was very tacit and harmonious.
Lin Yeshuang Woman next to her didn't stop chattering for a moment: "Little Si, let's see if the water is boiling?" Hey, I really don't know how you have come over the years with His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun, and you can't even boil water, and you, Mu Xuan, this noodle is obviously too hard, you see that my dumplings are not well pinched, and they will be steamed ...... later."
In this way, half an hour later, in the broken thoughts of Lin Yeshuang Woman, who everyone had long been accustomed to, did not stop for a moment, the dumplings that everyone worked together to make were finally out of the cage.
Before he opened the steamer and smelled the fragrance coming from inside, Chu Yunsheng couldn't help but drool.
Hastily cleaned up the flour on his body, Chu Yunsheng directly let people move tables and chairs to the small kitchen, planning to let a room of people sit around the round table to eat Chinese New Year's Eve dumplings, regardless of status, regardless of dignity.
Before serving the table, Chu Yunsheng ran outside to find Dumb, but he sat on the cork under the eaves of the porch with his knees crossed, and he was reluctant to go to the house to eat dumplings with everyone, so Chu Yunsheng had to serve him a bowl alone and bring it to him and let him eat outside.
He was holding the steaming dumplings, and there was no shadow in a blink of an eye, I don't know if he didn't want to be gregarious and didn't like such a scene, or he didn't want everyone to see his face under the bronze mask, in short, to accept the world like a normal person, Chu Yunsheng felt that there was still a long way to go.
She didn't force him either.
When I returned to the small kitchen, everyone was already seated, smiling and smiling, and eating with relish.
But the little uncle Xiao Jingshu stretched his neck to look in the direction of the door, and when he saw her come in, his eyes immediately burst out with anticipation: "Sister, sister, come and eat dumplings." ”
As he spoke, he kept patting the vacant position next to him, motioning for Chu Yunsheng to go over and sit, Chu Yunsheng raised his eyes, and saw Yu Shenyuan, who was sitting on the right hand side of that position for a long time playing with the sauce in front of him, as soon as he saw her come in, Yu Shenyuan raised his eyes, and said with a smile: "That dumb brother of yours, still refuses to join everyone?"
Chu Yunsheng walked over, sat down in his position, and sighed, "Yes, he's shy." As she spoke, she raised her hand and put a steaming dumpling into the bowl of her little uncle, who was already looking forward to the dumplings, and advised, "Slow down, be careful of scalding." ”
Xiao Jingshu took the small dish and bowl, blew twice, and took a bite, still calling it hot, which made everyone smile.
Chu Yunsheng also laughed, and sandwiched another one in his small plate, helping him to dry, and then looked back, but saw that there was already an extra dumpling in the bowl in front of her, she raised her eyes in astonishment, and looked at Yu Shenyuan, who had just accepted the action of holding dumplings for herself, and without waiting for her to speak, Yu Shenyuan spoke first: "Why haven't you seen your dumb brother eating osmanthus cake recently?"
Hearing this, Chu Yunsheng was stunned.
How did Yu Shenyuan know that Dumb likes to eat osmanthus cakes?
Dumb likes to eat osmanthus cakes, but that was before coming to Weidu, since that day at the city gate she excused Xiao Si to take him to buy osmanthus cakes and broke him away, and he never ate osmanthus cakes again.
For this reason, Chu Yunsheng also tried his best to talk to him, but Brother Dumb was unwilling to say half a word to himself, but the osmanthus cake was no longer attractive to him.
But Yu Shenyuan's contact with Dumb was also after Weidu, even in Linyang County, it was only a quick glance, how did he know?
Puzzled and a little surprised, Chu Yunsheng didn't show anything on her face, she lowered her head, picked up the dumplings in the small plate in front of her and tasted them, before saying, "Maybe Brother Dumb has changed his taste, but how did Yuxiang know that Brother Dumb once liked osmanthus cakes?"
When he said this, Chu Yunsheng raised his eyes to look at Yu Shenyuan and looked straight into his eyes.
