I'm sorry if you feel uncomfortable!!
Sixteen miles east of Yanggaoyi, there is a wild goose back mountain, towering into the clouds, the top of the mountain is covered with snow, it is rumored that the wild goose flies north, and then returns, so the mountain is named after the wild goose. [Full text reading. The higher the mountain, the more steep and cold it becomes, and there are fierce beasts infesting it, but the foot of the mountain is the only way for merchants from north to south.
There is a white tiger village in the mountain, where bandits are entrenched, and it is a big problem for the traders, and the imperial court has not been able to encircle and suppress it many times, which is as annoying as a tumor.
Now this White Tiger Village has become the first important town to resist the invasion of demon monks and demon vines after the fall of Yang Gaoyi.
Wei Su captured the White Tiger Village, both soft and hard, dismissed most of the thieves, only the elite who had the heart to resist the enemy and extraordinary skills were incorporated under his command, and sent troops every day, burning vines to kill the enemy, rescuing the surviving people, just a few days, the reputation rose, because the military robes under its command were white, and the town guarded the White Tiger Village, which was called the White Tiger Army, and the people did not know the name of Wei Su, only called the Tiger General.
The White Tiger Army guards the northwest on behalf of Yang Gaoyi, and the southwest corner of Daipinglang County guards another nameless army in black robes and armor and without a head and face, and its general is actually a young man who has not yet reached adulthood, seemingly pink and jade, handsome in appearance, but with infinite vitality, he can ride a thousand, this army moves quickly and elusively, and also slaughters demon monks and rescues many people.
The decline of the Zheng Dynasty and the sudden rise of natural alien armies, for a time the world's capable people and strangers gathered in the Western Regions, which set off the bleak and embarrassed regular army of the imperial court that failed to resist and retreated. The new emperor has also been criticized countless times because of this.
However, the demon vines are not only burned inexhaustibly, but also the demon monks help to abuse, and the folk righteous people only rely on the courage of a moment, and the hasty assembly is just a plate of loose sand, except for Wei Su and Xiang Yu can still hold on, everywhere is not a broken army, defeated and retreated, and there are countless casualties, but it has become the blood food that nourishes the demon vine.
Lu Sheng checked the letters one after another, and his blade-like black eyebrows furrowed deeper and deeper, "Why doesn't the imperial court increase its troops?" The Northern Wei Dynasty was eyeing the tiger, and the Linbei Army stationed in the river naturally could not move, but the four prefectures and counties near Yanggaoyi had a total of 50,000 garrisons. β
He was anxious for a while, so he blurted out, but he didn't regret it when he came back to his senses, although it was disrespectful to talk about the military plane, but Xie Ying even handed him this secret letter to him, so naturally he would not pursue this trivial matter.
Xie Ying didn't pursue it, but his face was not necessarily so relaxed, so he only responded: "I have already been transferred to other places, but I have not sent reinforcements, but I have another important task - Baoyang, the emperor's tomb has moved." β
Lu Sheng put down the letter in his hand, frowned slightly, looked at Xie Ying carefully, only to feel that the unspeakable weirdness lingered in his heart, he didn't answer Xie Ying's words, but asked rhetorically: "Ah Ying, since you woke up, why didn't you tell me?" It worries people day and night. β
Lu Sheng said in a slushful manner, lest he be teased again, but perhaps because he saw his mother, Xie Ying is now more restrained than him, and only laughed softly: "I woke up two hours ago, and I was about to find an opportunity to send someone to deliver a letter, but I don't want you to come first - I can't get out of Taicheng now, since Baoyang is here, he will accompany me more." β
Although Lu Sheng wanted to ask him, "Why can't you get out of Taicheng?" It's just that it's rare to hear Xie Ying's soft words, and I can't help but feel soft in my heart, and respond: "Okay." β
When he saw Xie Ying raise his hand, even his breath was condensed for a while, and he was worried that this boy was unscrupulous, which made him even more embarrassed, and said in a low voice: "Ah Yingββ"
Who knew that Xie Ying just reached to his side and picked up a narrow carved wooden box from the bookcase.
Lu Sheng couldn't help but be disappointed and embarrassed, but fortunately, Xie Ying didn't look at him, only opened the wooden box, revealing a piece of dead vine placed in it, Lu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately said: "Ah Ying, I specially entered the palace to look for you, it was for this reason." Could it be ...... It's also because the emperor's tomb moved...... Could it be the Mausoleum of the Yellow Emperor? β
Xie Ying was still unhurried, and his expression was as calm as if the eight winds were not moving, and he said slowly: "Baoyang, what do you think?" β
Lu Sheng choked, his heart was naturally angry, and he secretly said If I know it in my heart, why bother Baba to enter the palace to find you, but when I thought of what Wei Su mentioned in the letter: "Ten rooms and nine emptiness, the city is falling, the demons are dying, and humanity is dying" The sixteen words, the anger disappeared, and he only pondered for a moment, and said slowly: "The people of Wuxian were all harmed by the ghost leaves, but the ghost leaves were killed by Li Ying...... However, Li Ying finally died at the hands of you and me, and it is said that the grass was cut and eradicated. Now that demon vine demon monk is ravaging the borderlands,"
When Xu Xiaoshan first met He Chuan, the other party was just a little hairy head in the fourth grade of primary school, and he himself had just gone through the hell of the college entrance examination, and he was anxious and waiting for notices.
June 16, to be exact.
The reason why Xu Xiaoshan remembers it so clearly is because it was his eighteenth birthday.
That day, he invited more than a dozen good male and female classmates, had a meal at Pizza Hut, and then went to sing K, and tossed until almost ten o'clock before going home, if it weren't for the parents of several classmates who kept calling to urge, they also planned to find a barbecue stand to continue.
Therefore, when saying goodbye, they were very reluctant to give up on each other.
When Xu Xiaoshan walked into the quiet community with a bunch of gift boxes on his back, the previous noise seemed to have become an illusion in his ears, and the huge gap made him a little trance.
Xu Xiaoshan lives on the top floor of the twentieth floor, which is said to be the first high-rise community in K City, it is very beautiful for a while, of course, it is now like a flash in the pan, obscure and old, and the property management is not dedicated, Xu Xiaoshan found that the elevator was broken, called the maintenance department, only a voice sounded very immature little girl answered the phone, politely said that he would send someone to repair it tomorrow. As for tonight, please figure it out on your own.
Xu Xiaoshan had to sigh and resigned himself to the corridor.
Maybe the encounter between people is always so accidental, if he hadn't walked the corridor that day, he wouldn't have met He Chuan, and the two of them would probably have embarked on completely different life trajectories, and they would have been strangers for the rest of their lives.
Stories happen by coincidence, and of course there are accidents.
However, when Xu Xiaoshan climbed to the eighteenth floor, he was still taken aback.
He saw a little boy sitting in the corner of the wall, with a huge bag in his arms, dozing in the dim light.
The little boy slept restlessly, and June was already hot, and although the climate in K City was far milder than in other cities, the high-rise stairwells were poorly ventilated, hot and full of mosquitoes, and he wrinkled his slender and dark eyebrows from time to time, and raised his hand to chase away mosquitoes in a daze.
Xu Xiaoshan noticed that he was still wearing a navy blue school uniform, the uniform of a nearby elementary school, the long-sleeved trousers looked even more stuffy, and the little boy's hair was a little long, and the tips of his messy bangs were soaked with sweat, and a lock of it was sticky to his forehead. He has long eyelashes and well-defined facial features, he looks like he is about eleven or twelve years old, and he is already very good-looking now, and when he grows up, he must be a handsome young man who fascinates the girls in the class, no, the girls in the whole school, and even the boys.
But soon, Xu Xiaoshan's attention was attracted by something else.
For example, from the cuffs of the little boy, the arm with bruises and scars, such as the fresh, reddened swells on the neck, almost a finger long, certainly not from a mosquito bite, but like something pulled out.
Just as he could see his senses, the little boy suddenly woke up, opened a pair of black and white eyes and glared at him fiercely, and the ferocious energy was not so much as a wolf as terrifying as a wild cat that had been injured by humans.
"Look at what, look!" Seeing that he still refused to look away, the little boy finally spoke, his voice was also fierce and trembling, Xu Xiaoshan felt that he was just trying to hold on to the remaining dignity and pride.
Xu Xiaoshan subconsciously replied: "Ah, I'm sorry...... Did you forget your keys? Is there no one at home? β
"What's the matter with you?" The little boy roared in a low voice, "Get out! β
Xu Xiaoshan thought for a moment and mumbled, "Excuse me." β
He walked slowly past the little boy, the rope of the paper bag in his hand slipped from his fingers, the stuffed paper bag fell to the ground with a thud, and the square round gift boxes rolled all over the ground, and some of them rolled to the feet of the little boy in his sandals.
"Ah, I'm sorry." Xu Xiaoshan still bent down slowly and began to pick up the box, he moved very slowly and hard, and when he picked up the little boy's feet, the other party shrank into the corner of the wall, and his delicate eyebrows wrinkled deeper.
"That ......," Xu Xiaoshan whispered, "I live upstairs, No. 2004, in fact, I have a birthday today, and I have a night of trouble with my classmates, and I have a lot of things on my back, so I finally went home, and the elevator is broken, and now I have climbed so many buildings, I am really tired...... So, can you help me with this package? It's a bit heavy though......"
The little boy was still staring at him vigilantly and indifferently, and there was a kind of maturity and ridicule far beyond his age in the depths of his eyes, which made Xu Xiaoshan feel embarrassed to be seen through, but he still continued stubbornly: "Just ...... Two floors, please. You can wait at my house for the family to come back, and in return, I will treat you to a Coke. β
The little boy still looked at him and didn't speak, and when Xu Xiaoshan couldn't hold on a little, he suddenly asked, "Is there any juice?" β
Xu Xiaoshan nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes!" β
The little boy finally moved, he carried the bag on one shoulder, took the paper bag from Xu Xiaoshan's hand, and neatly picked up the remaining gift box and put it away, "Let's go." β
Xu Xiaoshan was almost flattered, if he hadn't remembered his "too tired" setting, he would have almost taken three steps and two steps.
Xu Xiaoshan himself is actually only vaguely aware that a little boy like this would probably rather live on the streets than accept pity and sympathy from others, but if someone asks him for help, he will instead have a sense of responsibility that "people like me can also help others".
Even if his acting skills are clumsy, it is enough at such a time.
He just used the right way to hold the hand that the little boy reached out to ask for help. He just thought, "How do I want to be treated when I'm desperate," and then did so, which is a kind of empathy between two people who have the same experience.
There were only a few pairs of shoes in the shoe cabinet in the entrance, he rummaged through them, found a new pair of slippers for the little boy to change, but he didn't care if he saw something, turned on the light in the living room, beckoned him to sit down, and went to open the refrigerator, but unfortunately he didn't find juice, only a bottle of carrot juice.
"It's not just carrot juice, it's vegetable juice, you see the ingredient list in addition to carrots, oranges and apples." Xu Xiaoshan explained curtly, and deliberately reversed the order of fruit and vegetable juices, but as the little boy unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip, his frowning eyebrows became more and more empty, "Supplement vitamins...... Good ...... for the body"
Unexpectedly, this sentence worked, the little boy hesitated, showed an expression of drinking medicine, raised his head and cooed, and drank half a bottle in one go.
Xu Xiaoshan was stunned, his heart throbbed slightly, and he didn't even dare to look at him directly.
The little boy's behavior was so similar, as if looking in a mirror to reflect himself two years ago.
At that time, he was like this, just because he was "good for his health", he tried to eat a lot of food that he didn't like at all, just to grow up quickly, to grow up early enough to be independent, no longer a burden to others, and to live without relying on anyone.
The only fortunate thing is that he was sixteen years old two years ago, and he has more self-reliance than such a half-old child.
- At least not to sit alone in the stairwell all night.
There was a gurgling belly in the quiet room, and Xu Xiaoshan came back to his senses and saw the little boy sitting on the sofa with red ears, bowing his head crampedly, holding the glass bottle of carrot juice tightly with both hands, and the big schoolbag at his feet.
Xu Xiaoshan hurriedly asked, "You, are you hungry?" I'll give you something to eat? β
The little boy seemed to have a great deal of effort to nod with difficulty, which was probably the hardest nod of his life for his arrogant self-esteem.
Xu Xiaoshan was very relieved to see that he was willing to accept it, and asked casually, "Is there anything you don't like to eat?" What about green onions, ginger and garlic? β
"I'm not a picky eater," after crossing the most difficult hurdle, the little boy's acceptance increased, he didn't have a smile on his face, looked at Xu Xiaoshan, and said word by word, "As long as there is food, I will eat everything." β
Xu Xiaoshan didn't disappoint the boy, he just jumped up with a smile: "Ah, great, so am I." β
He cooked a bowl of somen noodles for the little boy, and the soup base was made of pork bones and chicken racks. Pork bones and chicken racks are supermarket discounted leftovers, there is no meat, but it is just right to make soup, Xu Xiaoshan likes to boil a pot of stock over a slow fire, put it in a sealed bottle and put it in the refrigerator, it can be stored for ten days and half a month, and it can be used at any time when needed.
In the well-tuned light brown broth, the slender white dragon beard noodles are moist and oily to absorb the soup, and a fried poached egg is placed on the noodles, a pink ham sausage cut into a star shape, a few slices of green greens, sprinkled with chopped chives, and finally drizzled with balsamic vinegar and a small circle of bright red chili oil to enhance the flavor. The chili oil is also homemade by Xu Xiaoshan, in addition to the dried chili powder in Qiubei, it is also mixed with peppercorns, star anise, and white sesame seeds, which are balanced and exude a stimulating and spicy smell that tempts the appetite.
The little boy lowered his head and ate noodles, ate noodles and gnawed poached eggs, and then stuffed ham sausages and vegetables into his mouth, eating wolf-gobbling up, very cruel, Xu Xiaoshan couldn't help but tell him "Don't worry, eat slowly", the little boy was stunned, looked down at the beautiful color matching, fragrant noodles, and suddenly tears fell into the bowl.
Xu Xiaoshan panicked, didn't know what to say, and felt that it was too embarrassing to be so cold, scratching his neck and trying to think of the topic: "That...... There are still a lot of noodles, and there are still ...... after eating Well, I will also make fried noodles, oil-fired noodles, cold noodles, and I will make them for you to try in the future, and I have good cooking skills...... Uh, I don't know your name yet......"
"He Chuan." The little boy sniffed as he spoke, and Xu Xiaoshan consciously went to find a tissue box and put it on the coffee table used as a dining table, "Congratulations, mountains and rivers." Brother, I told you to, I'm sorry. β
Hearing the beautiful little boy call him brother and apologize obediently, Xu Xiaoshan's heart was about to melt, and he waved his hand hurriedly, "Haha, it's okay, it's okay, you're right, who knows if the person who accosted you is a good person, it's always right to be vigilant." β
He Chuan finally laughed, the little boy laughed, it was like a wild leopard turned into a ragdoll cat, his eyes were watery with tears, because his sexual characteristics were not obvious at a young age, and there was a kind of demonic beauty that was incomprehensible, which made Xu Xiaoshan almost dazzled, "Brother is a good person." β
Xu Xiaoshan, who was issued a good person card, didn't feel lost at all, and the little beer he drank in the KTV was all in his head, and the whole person began to flutter, and the atmosphere became relaxed.
He Chuan stopped crying, and soon finished eating the noodles, and Xu Xiaoshan asked him to help open the gifts. The two cleaned up the coffee table and brought the gift box up.
Among Xu Xiaoshan's classmates with ordinary family backgrounds and good relationships, except for Zhao Ming, who is a rich second generation, the others are all working families, so the gifts given are also affordable and practical and interesting small things, such as sports wristbands, stainless steel forks and spoons in the shape of cat's heads, and complete sets of Peking Opera face bookmarks.
Xu Xiaoshan flipped through the pages and picked up a cardboard box with a little yellow duck painted on it, and in the box was a set of stationery, including a well-styled yellow fountain pen with the letters lamy written on the pen, as well as a bottle of ink, a notebook, and two little yellow duck badges. He picked up the pen and flipped it in his hand, and sighed with disgust: "What does that guy Zhao think, he actually gave me such a cartoon thing, he must have forgotten to prepare a gift and asked for it from his sister temporarily...... Exactly, here's for you. β
He stuffed the carton into He Chuan's hand, and the little boy wanted to refuse directly, but his eyes fell on the barrel of the pen and he couldn't take his eyes off it. Although primary school students don't know what brand LAMY is, they are still attracted by the shape of the fountain pen, pure bright yellow and warm and bright, wide clip, round and square calm shape, and the tip of the pen is polished like a small blade, the pen is very slender, which simply meets the dreams of obsessive-compulsive patients.
He remembered that some classmates in the class used similar pens, but the letters engraved on the pen were different, and he heard that it cost more than 20 yuan a piece, although it was less than half a week's pocket money for the local tyrant classmate, but He Chuan's pocket money was only 20 yuan a month, and it was not enough to eat, and it was even more delusional to buy something else. The one in front of me is obviously of better quality, the color is pure, and the lines are straight, so that people are reluctant to let go when they hold it in their hands.
But you shouldn't just take other people's things, it's not good......
The boy's tangled little expression fell in Xu Xiaoshan's eyes, he was so cute that he wanted to take a bite, Xu Xiaoshan suppressed his crazy thoughts, rubbed his face and said, "...... Anyway, I can't use it, what a waste to put it, the pen will lose its meaning of existence if it is not used, and the little yellow duck will cry. He Chuan, you should do me a favor and use it more for me. β
He Chuan said: "Then, then I'll help you use it, and when you want to go back, I'll give it back to you!" β
Xu Xiaoshan couldn't help but smile and nodded: "Okay, okay." β
He Chuan breathed a sigh of relief and solemnly stuffed the pencil case into his school bag.
Xu Xiaoshan's eyes were sharp, and he saw that half a white mug and a towel rolled together were exposed in the schoolbag, but He Chuan pulled the zipper of the schoolbag in a panic. He pretended to be nothing, and looked up at the wall clock on the wall, and it was almost twelve o'clock. He Chuan was young after all, although he was still holding on, he couldn't help but rub his eyes sleepily, he rubbed it secretly, for fear of being discovered-although Xu Xiaoshan still found out.
"It's so late," he said, "or you will sleep with me, and I'll see if Mom and Dad have come back to-morrow." β
"I don't have a dad." He Chuan raised his hand and rubbed his eyes again, this time he rubbed it for a long time, Xu Xiaoshan began to run out of words again, but fortunately, He Chuan continued, "Mom's new boyfriend thought I was in the way and kicked me out. β
The little boy's smile disappeared again, and Mu Ran's face was like a delicate porcelain doll, "My home is in 1804, and my mother probably thinks it's more convenient for me to be away." β
What is convenient to do...... Xu Xiaoshan felt that there was no need to ask.
The apartment building they live in is called Zichen Building A, which focuses on small apartments, like the 2004 where Xu Xiaoshan lives, strictly speaking, there is only one bedroom and one living room. The entrance is the entrance, the bathroom and bathroom on the left, the kitchen on the right, and the living room on the right. Turn left and there is a staircase connected to the small leap, which is less than 10 square meters, which doubles as a bedroom and study, and there is no wall blocking the upstairs and downstairs.
1804 should be the same pattern, then if this is the case, He Chuan's mother wants to do something inappropriate for children, and she really can't keep He Chuan in the house.
But what kind of mother would kick her child out of the house and let him spend the night in the hallway for such a purpose?
Xu Xiaoshan felt his blood surge, his fingers trembled, and he couldn't wait to rush downstairs, smash open the door of 1804, question her, and scold her.
But what about finding the door?
Even if she is sued for the crime of abandonment and abuse, what can He Chuan get?
It's nothing more than tossing and turning between relatives, sending people under the fence, and when relatives are unwilling to take them in, do you want to go to an orphanage?
Xu Xiaoshan once again felt patheticly weak, and his eyes were red.
A small hand gently wiped the corners of his eyes for him, He Chuan leaned over, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh, "Brother Xiaoshan, why are you crying?" β
The voice of Brother Xiaoshan was soft and cute, Xu Xiaoshan felt that how ruthless was his mother to drive such a cute and sensible child out? The more I thought about it, the more sad and sorry I became, and I grabbed He Chuan's little hand, "He Chuan, it's okay, you can live here with my brother...... I'm going to talk to my aunt tomorrow and stay here when she can't take care of you! β
The little boy's eyes lit up, shining with hope, and he carefully held Xu Xiaoshan's hand and asked, "Brother Xiaoshan, is it really possible?" Won't your mom and dad mind? β
Xu Xiaoshan's face couldn't help but sink, and then he laughed again, "It's okay, they have divorced a long time ago, I live alone, no one will interfere, don't worry." β
He Chuan probably didn't expect such an answer, blinking his eyes with a look of remorse for asking the wrong thing, Xu Xiaoshan couldn't help but raise his hand, wanting to rub his head, but he didn't expect the child to reflexively close his eyes and shrink his neck, looking very afraid.
Xu Xiaoshan remembered the scars he saw, sighed heavily, and gently rubbed his hand on the little boy's head, "Go take a bath, sleep first, and talk about it tomorrow." β
He Chuan couldn't help but shake when he put that hand up, but there was no usual pain, instead of a warm and gentle touch, which made him feel almost happy in his heart, but unfortunately the time was too short, he reluctantly watched Xu Xiaoshan withdraw his hand, and was still embarrassed to ask him to touch it a little more.
He Chuan took out a mug, a toothbrush, a towel, and a PET bottle full of tap water from his school bag, and walked into the bathroom with a bit of a surprise in his arms. Xu Xiaoshan wanted to laugh a little when he saw it, this kid is well-equipped, and he even brought his own water to wash his face and brush his teeth, which is really sensible and distressing.
Xu Xiaoshan taught him how to use a water heater, found a set of his old pajamas and sent them to the bathroom, and then went upstairs to make the bed. Two people can't sleep in a single bed, so Xu Xiaoshan left the bed to He Chuan and made another bunk by himself.
Perhaps because of the comparison, Xu Xiaoshan suddenly felt that his eighteen-year life did not seem to be so miserable.
He Chuan woke up to a sweet smell.
It tasted so good that he woke up for a long time with his eyes closed, for fear that when he opened it, he would find himself dreaming.
In his short ten years of life, he had good luck for the first time.
He was cheeky and pretended to be pitiful and cute, but he didn't expect the man to be soft-hearted than he expected, and he was taken in without much effort.
A clean room, no choking smell of smoke and sweat, no dirty clothes and cigarette butts thrown everywhere, and no instant noodle bowls that have been eaten. Downstairs, there was the sound of the clatter of dishes and chopsticks, the sound of refreshing running water from the faucet, and the cheerful gurgling of hot soup on the fire.
This is the voice of his dream home.
The little boy secretly tossed and turned on the bed, retreating from his precocious thoughts, showing the original appearance of a ten-year-old child, and he couldn't help but smell the fragrance deeply, and the corners of his mouth curved into a joyful arc.
Really, really, really happy.
Xu Xiaoshan heard the tumbling sound from upstairs, put the two bowls of rice balls on the table, and said in a loud voice: "Why don't you hurry up and wash your face and brush your teeth for breakfast, the rice balls will be mushy after a long time." β
A small head appeared above the cast iron railing of the leap, and the two eyes were shining: "Tangyuan?!" What's stuffing? β
Xu Xiaoshan grinned proudly, revealing a mouthful of white teeth: "Xu's exclusive secret system." β
The little boy rushed into the bathroom like a foal, and Xu Xiaoshan reminded: "Your face must be washed and your teeth should be brushed thoroughly." β
The ten-year-old child was not the slightest impatient, and nodded his head as if a chicken pecked at the rice while brushing his teeth.
A pure white glazed lotus soup bowl holds a hot and sour soup boiled with sake brewed and water, and floats ten snow-white rice balls the size of longan and a poached egg.
He Chuan quickly washed up, still wearing Xu Xiaoshan's old pajamas, sitting obediently at the table, and seeing Xu Xiaoshan's expression of permission, he scooped a rice ball with a soup spoon and put it in his mouth.
The soft and glutinous skin was easily bitten, and a slightly hot sweet torrent poured into the mouth, fragrant and sweet, crispy and crispy, full of taste, so delicious that the tongue had to swallow it.
He Chuan couldn't think of any other adjectives, so he just buried his head in hard work.
Xu Xiaoshan also felt very satisfied when he saw that he was eating enthusiastically and energetically.
Glutinous rice ball filling is one of my mother's specialties that year, the fried crisp peanuts, peeled crisp walnuts, roasted white sesame seeds and peanut-sized brown sugar are fully mixed and mashed, and at the same time mixed with an appropriate amount of lard while mashing, the filling is sweet but not greasy, fragrant and refreshing, and the oil melts after boiling, which will make the brown sugar and nuts blend more perfectly, and the aroma is doubled.
Xu Xiaoshan took a lot of effort to restore this filling successfully, and the effort proved to be worth it. People who have tasted it are full of praise, and Zhao Ming even said that he has never eaten such a delicious dessert in any Michelin-starred restaurant - of course, it is likely that he is just trying to give his buddy a long face.
The little boy was swept away, after eating the rice balls and poached eggs, and even drank the sweet soup made with wine, and then still looked at Xu Xiaoshan with unfinished eyes.
Xu Xiaoshan hesitated for a moment, and said, "You can't eat too much glutinous rice, it's easy to accumulate food." He gave him three rice balls from his bowl.
Then he put a small bowl of mung bean porridge with a few side dishes, and watched the little boy eat it.
Until He Chuan put down the spoon with a radiant face, moaned and said, "My stomach is too swollen to eat......"
Xu Xiaoshan came back to his senses at this time, and touched his nose in a special way, as if he hadn't resisted feeding too much.
The little boy gritted his teeth to help Xu Xiaoshan clean up the dishes and chopsticks, Xu Xiaoshan looked at him in pain, and he couldn't help laughing, "Okay, you don't need to clean up...... You have to help wait for the next time, and if you eat too much, you can rest for a while and eliminate your appetite. β
He Chuan was ordered to move to the side of the sofa Ge You paralyzed, touching his stomach contentedly, while pondering how to make such a happy time as long as possible.
However, before he could think of any good ideas, Xu Xiaoshan had already finished cleaning the kitchen efficiently and sat opposite, "He Chuan, take me to see your mother." β
The joy on the little boy's face immediately faded, and he sat up slowly, lowered his head, and said, "She never gets up so early...... You'll have to wait for the afternoon to see her. β
Xu Xiaoshan scratched his face, and suddenly remembered a serious problem, today, Sunday, the primary school students are on vacation, and he also made an appointment with a few friends to have an important party, "Uh, that ......"
He Chuan observed the words, and immediately stood up and said, "It's okay, I, I'll knock on the door, Brother Xiaoshan will wait for me upstairs first." β
Why...... Xu Xiaoshan didn't even ask, but the fear in the little boy's eyes and the vigilant appearance of subconsciously grabbing his arm with one hand were made up. This is a mother who can physically punish her children, and if she wakes up, she may cause another beating.
He sighed and grabbed He Chuan's thin wrist, the little boy subconsciously shrank back, and then forcibly held back. Xu Xiaoshan said: "No need, in fact, I don't have anything to do...... You have a school bag with you, are you done with your homework? β
He Chuan shook his head slowly, and Xu Xiaoshan smiled, "Then what are you waiting for, do your homework quickly." β
He Chuan hesitated and said, "I...... I don't understand ......."
Xu Xiaoshan pointed to himself: "With me, what are you afraid of, just ask if you don't understand." β
He Chuan squinted and secretly looked at the young man, a half-grown boy who only turned eighteen years old yesterday, thin and white, with a refreshing and handsome appearance, is the favorite image of aunts and aunts as a good child. There was a basketball in the corner of the wall, and he looked like sports, but he couldn't see it when he was wearing clothes, and he still looked a little muscular when he took it off, and he found some resonance with the eagerness to become an adult.
The little boy smiled with suppressed joy, nodded emphatically, ran upstairs, opened his bag and put his homework book on the desk.
Xu Xiaoshan sighed secretly, called Zhao Ming and said that today's party was not going, Zhao Ming shouted on the other end of the phone: "No, what kind of excuse, you kid escaped from the battle!" It's not impotence, right? β
Xu Xiaoshan's face flushed: "What nonsense!" I'm really in trouble...... Pick up a child. β
There was a violent cough on the other end of the phone, and Xu Xiaoshan could imagine that the kid choked on saliva and looked shocked, and the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, "I don't believe you look back, remember to bring gifts." β
Zhao Ming coughed for a long time before he came to his senses, "It's not your father's illegitimate child......
"No," Xu Xiaoshan didn't bother to bother with him, "The neighbor's child downstairs is always hard to say, so today's ...... I'm not going. β
"It's a pity," Zhao Ming was speechless, shook his head and sighed, "That's what my cousin finally brought back from Japan without telling my sister-in-law, the heroine is a newcomer who has just debuted, and she looks like Liu Yuxuan." β
Liu Yuxuan is Xu Xiaoshan's crush on the school flower, or rather, the boys think they are secretly in love with the school flower, Zhao Ming's words are simply in the hole, Xu Xiaoshan was entangled for a long time, "When did you transcribe it and pass it to me......"
"No way!" Zhao Ming refused to speak righteously, "Private dissemination is an infringement, we want to support the genuine version, you can come to me if you want to see it." β
Watching a is also seen as a copyright guard!
Xu Xiaoshan complained angrily in his heart, so he had to continue to sigh, "Don't make trouble, I still have thoughts, let's do this first." β
He hung up the phone and sat on the couch for a while.
It's really not a big deal, Xu Xiaoshan's parents got married when he was fourteen years old, his father gambled and cheated, and almost bankrupted the family, and the junior came to the door with a big belly, so angry that his mother had a heart attack.
By the time he was sixteen years old, the two had finally divorced, and his mother had collapsed physically and mentally, and she would go hysterical and crazy at the sight of anyone and anything related to his father, including Xu Xiaoshan.
The maternal grandparents' family took his mother away for treatment, in this case, Xu Xiaoshan's custody should have been awarded to his father, but Xu Xiaoshan hated his mother to become such a father, and he was unwilling to follow him.
To put it simply, as a result of the final negotiation, Xu Xiaoshan voluntarily stayed in K City to live independently, and his mother followed his maternal grandparents back to H City for treatment.
The family changed, and then the college entrance examination, so Xu Xiaoshan was too busy to take care of adolescence, the eighteen-year-old young man hadn't even watched a movie, and was ridiculed by a few friends, Zhao Ming proposed that the wind and rain have passed, and the college entrance examination is over, so it is better to go to him to watch a new film to celebrate, and by the way, give Xu Xiaoshan "meat".
Zhao Ming's family lives in the most expensive villa area in K City, his father is an audio-visual enthusiast, and he also installed a home theater at home, I heard that the equipment alone costs millions, Zhao's father is not good enough, sighing that he is too poor and can't afford to buy really good equipment.
Xu Xiaoshan didn't understand the troubles of rich people, but he was fortunate to visit Zhao's father's home theater, which was no worse than a movie theater, or rather, much better than most movie theaters.
200-inch high-definition giant screen, Dolby Atmos power amplifier, a full set of high-end customized speakers in Europe, and the source of the film is still Blu-ray.
Just imagine watching a movie in that environment, surrounded by those realistic sounds...... Xu Xiaoshan subconsciously covered his nose.
It's a little too exciting, the first time I look at it, don't go overboard, the impact is too great, it's not good, it's good not to look at it. He comforted himself so much, stood up, and just in time to see the little boy lying on the railing of the jump to look at him, with big eyes blinking and blinking, with shaggy hair, the sun shining in like a dark brown, more like a ragdoll cat.
Xu Xiaoshan subconsciously became shy, people and children were waiting for him to help him with his homework, but he was thinking about some things about teaching and stealing here, which was really embarrassing.
He coughed, looked up at He Chuan and smiled: "Whatever you want to drink, I'll bring it to you." β
He Chuan said, "Fruit ......," he paused, and changed his words, "Anything can be done." β
Xu Xiaoshan smiled dryly and touched his head, remembered the carrot juice last night, got up and went to cook a pot of hawthorn grapefruit peel honey tea, then chilled it with ice water until it was slightly cool, poured it into two glass mugs, and took it upstairs to tutor primary school students in their homework.
