For seven days, Chi Chi nested in the small courtyard of Haicheng, got up in the morning to practice boxing, and then watered the flowers in the yard, cleaned up the dust on the ground, in addition to enjoying the delicious three meals made by the top chefs, that is, to look at the brainless sitcom or the Shen family's collection of books to pass the time, Chef Shen's bookshelf has a lot of legal monographs, most of which are in the original language, Chef Shen loves to read psychology and literature, and occasionally sees the paper marks in the book, which are full of experiences and annotations, in addition to books on economics and traditional culture, obviously this family is not just able to cook a good dish。

Of course, there was also a mistake, Chef Shen found the book from her brother's room and took it out and handed it to Chi Chi, Chi Chi opened it and glanced at it, then looked at Chef Shen, and then looked at the door between Shen's kitchen, and stopped □□ words.

Chef Shen took it and looked at it blankly, and then silently tore off the outer paper of the book to take a look, his face was already a little blue.

"I got it wrong, do you like to watch suspense? I have English here, it just came out last month, you must not have read it. ”

At this time, the two of them pretended that the book just now didn't actually exist, and they didn't see any weird postures, pictures, plants, and the two men above.

When Chef Shen and her eldest brother were on a video call that afternoon, Chi Chi heard her say helplessly to the other end of the phone: "Just look at it, why is there a book cover of "Traditional Architectural Aesthetics" wrapped outside......? You, you said how old you are, Xiao Chen and Xiao Wan will die of laughter when they know about it......"

After thinking about the relationship between the characters of the Shen family in his heart, Chi Chi smiled secretly in his heart, it turned out that the big boss of the Panda Group had such a heavy reading hobby.

Chef Shen's newly found book made Chi Chi very happy to read, the rhythm was good, and the plot was also very unexpected.

"If you like it, he's written five or six books, if you like me, let him send a few more sets back." ”

Chef Shen rarely smiled brightly, as if it was a thing for her to be happy that these books were liked by Chi Chi.

Chi Chi lived here as if he was the real owner of this courtyard, Chef Shen came back with a grouper one day, and as soon as he entered the courtyard door, he saw Chi Chi sharpening the wood chips with a knife.

"Why?"

"There is a place on the grape trellis that the structure is not strong, and I am afraid that it will rain and bloom again in a few days, and that place will not be able to support the grape branches, so I will simply make up for it. ”

After speaking, Chi Chi measured the size of the wood chips in his hand back and forth, turned around and stood on top of the stool to repair the grape trellis.

There is also a small stool on the stool, and it is just that Chi Chi is a master of art who dares to jump up directly and raise his hand to work without relying on it.

Putting the grouper covered in a plastic bag on the table, Chef Shen walked over quickly and helped Chi Chi Chi to his leg.

"I said a long time ago that I would replace this shelf with an all-iron one, but my grandfather said that he didn't want to say anything, saying that the iron shelf had wronged this grape, and now we have to check the top of this shelf every year, and last year during the typhoon, these wooden bars were broken in half, and grapes were smashed all over the yard. ”

"That's a shame. ”

Chi Chi imagined the scene of half of the grapes being smashed, and couldn't help but smack his lips in distress.

"Actually, this grape is not tasty, the skin is thick and sour. ”

"Oh...... That's fine. ”

The grapes that are not very tasty seem to be so distressed.

Chi Chi not only repaired the grape trellis, but also redesigned the shape of the fence in the flower garden, and by the way, pruned the branches and leaves of the trees in the yard.

Chef Shen is very convinced of Chi Chi's hands-on ability, and he is also very relieved of her aesthetics, although there is occasionally a sense of uncertainty about "what will my family be like today", but with such a reliable designer, Chef Shen is very relieved to hand over his home to the other party.

So when Chef Shen came home one day, he found that many corners of their yard were painted with beautiful patterns.

"Your yard is still a little smaller, and I can only barely make an embellishment with hand-painting, which by the way adds the following sense of depth. ”

In order not to let the paint stain her clothes, Chi Chi wore a dirty apron from Chef Shen, which was still a little wide compared to her excessively thin waist, and hung a little dangling on Chi Chi's body.

A pair of beautiful golden chickens could be seen through a few bamboos, and Chef Shen's face was numb, really, reluctantly.

"It's a pity that I can only stay here for a few days, otherwise there are still many details in your house that can be redesigned. ”

Chi Chi likes this small courtyard of the Shen family very much, from many small details, she can see that several generations of people live together in this courtyard, everyone does what they like, there is a late age without regrets, there is a vibrant golden age, and there is a childlike innocence that makes people smile.

"I knew I would take you to the manor outside the city, the place is big, you can design enough. ”

Eating roasted wheat with fresh shrimp and diced bamboo shoots, drinking sea cucumber millet porridge, and two chopsticks braised pomfret, Chef Shen suddenly regretted that he didn't let Chi Chi Chi go to his own manor.

"Wait until I'll come next time. ”

After the fried oyster yellow bites into the crispy shell, it is sweet and smooth to the point of breath-taking deliciousness, Chi Chi squinted his eyes and enjoyed it quietly, and his head shook slightly.

"Okay, next time you pick autumn, the fruits in the manor are delicious, and my brother has picked the best seedlings for apples, pears, and peaches. At that time, there were a lot of people, and they all liked to come to the bench to join in the fun. ”

"Well, good. ”

Nodding, Chi Chi took away two pieces of fried oyster yellow with his chopsticks.

On the morning of the eighth day, when the lazy hour hand had just pointed to 4, Chi Chi was dragged up from the bed by Chef Shen, and the cold wet towel wiped her face, and how much sleepiness grew wings and flew away.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the beach. ”

The sky was still dark, and Chef Shen drove the car with the pool to a beach in the east, saying that it was not actually a beach, compared with some famous beaches in Haicheng, there were coarse grains of fools here, and there were more gravel, so it might be more appropriate to call it a rocky beach.

"There are few people here, and it is clean to watch the sunrise. ”

The car was parked on the side of the road, and the road was higher than the rocky beach, Chef Shen said to Chi Chi as he leaned against the railing eroded by the sea breeze.

Before sunrise, the cold night breeze was finally unbridled on people's faces, and Chi Chi cut his hair and wrapped the cashmere shawl on his body.

Chi Chi didn't speak, her eyes kept looking at the distance without depth.

The sea is the mirror of the sky, the hazy sky is always facing the bleak sea, under the clear and clear sky, the sea surface is also refreshing green or blue, just like now, this sky is pregnant with new light in the dark, and the sea is also sounding, as if looking forward to and cheering.

"'The sunrise is one foot high, and everything in the world is as fine as hair'. 'Every time I have a problem in my heart, I like to watch the sun rise, and then I learned this poem, and I think that the poet is also my friend, but unfortunately the sentence that follows is not good, 'The wild man is angry at the uneven place, and wears the ancient knife in his chest'. ”

Chef Shen smiled as she spoke, turned her head to look at the girl standing beside her, and she continued.

"If there's something unhappy, look at the sky and think that we're on this earth, it's giving birth to life, it's shining with the sun, it's feeding everything...... As far as the universe as a whole is concerned, the existence of human beings is a miracle created by countless coincidences, and each of us can stand here, and it is one miracle after another, either in life or in time. ”

"yes, miracles. ”

Chi Chi tilted his head and listened to the sound of the waves hitting the reef for a while, and said to Chef Shen very seriously:

"I also don't like the back half of the poem, if everyone has an iron in their hearts, that iron should be made into what everyone expects them to be, if it is a knife, it should become sharper and sharper, whether it is uneven or angry, it should become a whetstone, and finally let a person's heart become like your fishknife, fast, sharp, and unique. ”

"Then according to your meaning, these two lines of poetry should become 'The wild man is angry at the injustice, sharpening the eternal knife in his chest'. ”

Chef Shen casually changed the poem, and Chi Chi nodded very much.

"Well, that's a good change. ”

"Thanks for the compliment. ”

The two men looked at each other and smiled, looking at the rising sun in the distance.

Where the sun rises, there are thick clouds and mountains, layered on top of each other, like the last barrier of the night that hides the light.

The sun is still the sun, it has never failed to make an appointment with the earth, it rises brilliantly every day, shines unbridledly, even when there are layers of clouds covering it, she is always there.

Watching the crimson sun climb little by little, and finally jumped out, the sky turned into a long scroll of red and purple, and the sea became colorful and gorgeous, Chi Chi let out a long breath.

Her heart is always full of flaming strength, but she will also be tired, and she will want to rest more than her career, but like the sunrise, what needs to be done is always done.

The knife that belongs to her always wants to be sharper, sharper.

Chef Shen looked at Chi Chi and felt that this girl was now like a sunflower, or, a solar water heater, the sun replenished her hope and strength, making her now seem to be glowing.

After watching the sunrise, Chi Chi followed Chef Shen to buy fresh ingredients, saw Chef Shen's miraculous silver noodle skills, and ate four bowls of seafood noodle soup with shrimp as the base, she went to the airport and took a plane to the capital.

On the ninth day after returning from filming abroad, the entertainment reporters stationed at the airport finally captured Chi Chi's long-lost figure, with neat black short hair, a delicate white turtleneck, with jeans and boots, and a classic red bracelet worn on her thin and powerful wrist last year - another very simple and very Chi Chi outfit.

"I heard that she has returned to China a long time ago, why has she only appeared alone until now?

The hand kept taking a few pictures, and one reporter asked the other.

"Probably where did you go on vacation?"

Another reporter also expressed his ignorance of Chi Chi.

The person who came to pick up Chi Chi was Dou Baojia, who appeared in black like a man in black, the first time she saw Chi Chi, she pinched her waist with both hands and seemed to want to say something, but before the tough posture lasted for ten seconds, she herself was defeated under Chi Chi's smile, and obediently took Chi Chi's arm and took her out of the airport.

At five o'clock in the afternoon of this day, Chi Chi appeared at the first meeting of the movie "Da Liaozhai" as scheduled.

Gong Xingshu, who had shaved his beard, waved at her with a smile.

"Do you drink beer or do you just have something white? ”

The other key members of the crew were all present, and they all had a cup in front of them.

"I just want a bottle of mineral water. The girl laughed and said, "For me, there is nothing more exciting in the world than a character." 166 Reading Network
