Chapter 50: The Warmth of Two People
Even the deed of the Chu Mansion was given to the bride to be the object at the bottom of the box, but because of a fish, he was almost treated as a diner who ate for nothing, Yue Xi didn't even bother to explain, and drove the donkey cart out of the Chu house.
"Don't embarrass him." Out of the door of the backyard, she said to Chu Yingzhi, Gao Gonggong and the others who chased out.
"Boss! I also said let's sit down and have a glass of wine as a family! ”
On this day, Chu Yingzhi peeked at Yue Xi a few times, and watched her sit in the main room and smile at the lively Qiqi in front of her, like an ordinary guest eating and drinking.
Several times, he wanted to approach her, he wanted to thank her, and even wanted to kneel in front of her to show his gratitude for this qiē!
And before he could solemnly toast her with a glass of wine, she had already gotten up and left. This made Chu Yingzhi feel unspeakably awkward in his heart!
"Let's go back and greet the guests!" In the distance, Yue Xi's voice came crisply: "The family doesn't talk to each other, we have time to sit down and drink......
……
Towards the end of the year, it snowed for another two days, and there were not many pedestrians on the wide street.
Yue Xi drove the donkey cart quickly, she looked up at the sky, and then walked towards Yingsu's courtyard.
She knew that she had been following the shadow guards he had sent by her side, and in the winter, Yue Xi didn't want to be embarrassed for these people.
After a few streets, he turned into the street where the main entrance of the courtyard was located, and after not going far, Yue Xi saw a lonely figure standing under the gatehouse, looking at her with a smile.
"Daughter-in-law!" Yue Xi shouted softly, stopped the donkey cart, she jumped from under the cart violently, and ran towards Ying Su, who was walking towards him: "I knew you hadn't left yet!" ”
"Well, I just got the news that you left the wedding banquet, and I was going to look for you, and that you came in this direction......"
Ying Su stood at the door wearing only thin clothes, obviously coming out in a hurry, stretched out his arms to hug the woman who was running towards him, he lowered his head and whispered in her ear: "Yue Xi, I am very happy that you are willing to come here!" ”
"Why do you wear so little?" Yue Xi leaned on him, and immediately hugged him and walked into the courtyard: "Go back to the house and stay!" ”
The two of them stepped into the door together, and Yue Xi turned his head again: "I forgot, there is still a fish in the car." ”
The weather was cold, and there were not a few steps from the Chu house to the other courtyard, and a lively grass carp had been frozen into a sword, lying there upright, and Yue Xi took some effort to detain it from the car: "I'll make you fish to eat!" ”
"Okay." Ying Su looked at her sideways, and reached out to take Yue Xi's hand, but she dodged it: "I just caught a fish, and it's ice and fishy smell......"
"It's fine." Ying Su still reached out and grabbed her: "I haven't seen you for a day......"
"Virtue!" Yue Xi shook off the hands of the two people holding together and pulled him towards the courtyard.
"Take you somewhere!" As he spoke, Ying Su walked straight to a room: "Look, do you like it?" If you don't feel good, I'll ask the craftsman to fix it. ”
"Wow!" The dining room in the courtyard, which rarely caught fire, changed greatly, and Yue Xi entered the door and looked around and nodded: "This is changed according to the kitchen of the Chu Mansion?" ”
"Hmm." Ying Su blushed and said softly, "I like those days very much......"
In those days, they would return to the Chu Mansion on time every day, he would light the fire, she would wash the vegetables and cook the rice, and then they would sit around the half-new table but she wiped it clean.
When it's cold, I will burn a few more firewood in the stove to warm the kitchen of only two people......
"...... here," Yue Xi said, pointing to the vacant place next to the stove, "There is another stove, one stove for steaming rice and soup, and one for frying and frying, so you have to wait." ”
"Huh?" Ying Su was stunned for a moment, and then said softly: "There were originally two stoves in the dining room, and I asked one ......to be demolished."
"......" Yue Xi glanced at him, only shook his head, and didn't say much.
If someone like him hadn't met him, he would never have set foot in the kitchen in his life...... She thought.
"Look!" After looking around, Yue Xi raised the grass carp in his hand to Ying Su: "Make something delicious for you!" ”
A large grass carp that had just been frozen was disemboweled, scaled, and cleaned up by Yue Xi, and then made a knife on both sides, and put it in a pot with base oil to fry both sides until golden brown, and then added two scoops of water to it and stewed it over medium heat.
"What is this?" His Majesty the Emperor, who was sitting by the stove and burning the fire, pulled his neck and looked into the pot, and asked puzzledly.
"It's cold, let's make a radish shredded fish soup to drink." As he spoke, Yue Xi had already peeled a white radish, put it on the cutting board, and cut it into thin strips.
"It's in this palace." Ying Su said: "It's all made of crucian carp soup. ”
"It's pretty much the same, but the cooking method is definitely different." Yue Xi lowered his head, the movements in his hands did not stop, and then said: "I will fry the fish in the soup, it will be whiter and fatter......"
More than half an hour later, a large pot of fish soup was served on the table, and a few green green onions floated on the milky white thick fish soup.
Yue Xi took two pairs of chopsticks and set them up, and first clamped the fat big fish tail and put it in Yingsu's bowl: "It's too late, let's not make the staple food, the province eats too much food." ”
"Hmm." Ying Su smiled and responded.
"Eat! In winter, it's warm to eat, but it's also cool, and it won't taste good when the fish is cold for a while. ”
While talking, Yue Xi took off the upward facing fish belly and put it into his bowl: "These two pieces of fish meat are big thorns, and they are still tender!" ”
"The lady eats it too." Ying Su followed her example and sandwiched the belly of the other side of the fish into Yue Xi's bowl.
"I just got down from the wedding feast, and I want to drink soup......
There is a lot of pepper in the milky white fish soup, which is hot and spicy, and it is enjoyable to drink, a big grass weighing two or three catties
, a large grass carp weighing two or three catties was eaten by two people sitting facing each other, and there was only a table of fish bones left.
After drinking the hot soup, Ying Su's body was sweaty, he put down his rice bowl and said softly: "I like all the food made by the lady." ”
"Sweaty, aren't you?" Yue Xi also smiled at him: "Sit in this room now, and then go out later." ”
After eating supper, Yue Xi cleaned up the kitchen again, and the two of them held hands and stepped on the snow on the ground to walk towards Yingsu's dormitory.
"Your courtyard is quite big, but you can't even see the people who are waiting, where are you hiding people?"
Yue Xi looked down at the pair of footprints stepped out by the two of them, and asked if there was a match.
"There are only my personal guards and a few chamberlains in the courtyard, and I just heard that you were coming, so I specially ordered them not to come out and disturb."
He liked the time when he was alone with his mother, and at that time she would never see him as a high emperor.
They are like the most ordinary little couple in the mortal world, talking about some inconsequential things, having a meal with Hemeimei, and then sleeping on a pillow in each other's arms.
"I picked all the things in this cabinet with my own hands." There is a dragon burning in the dormitory, and the temperature is much higher than outside.
Ying Su pushed Yue Xi to a vermilion wardrobe by the wall, he opened the door of one of the cabinets above and said, "The clothes that the lady left in that house have also been collected and placed here, you see, if there is anything missing, I will send someone to buy it." ”
"That's good." Yue Xi looked into the cabinet, in addition to a few clothes with very good workmanship and fabrics, several Xiaodong Xiaoxi that she had used in the Chu Mansion were also taken back by Ying Su: "I really know how to live!" ”
"Humph!" Ying Su snorted disapprovingly.
Yue Xi turned around and hugged his waist, looked up at him and said, "Huh? Why does it seem to be a little taller? ”
"The lady also thinks I'm tall?" Ying Su's eyes lit up, and he pulled Yue Xi to the huge bronze mirror next to him, and the two of them stood side by side, he looked at the two slender figures in the bronze mirror and whispered: "In the past, I always felt that Ying Fei seemed to be taller than me, and when he talked to me today, I deliberately compared, and I feel that now I am taller!" ”
"Huh?" Yue Xi also looked at the two figures in the bronze mirror that were not like husband and wife but like brothers, and stuck out his tongue: "Speaking of the prince of the county, but I haven't seen him anymore......"
"Lady, go take a bath......" The young man in the bronze mirror turned around, pulled Yue Xi and walked inside, but he didn't say a word about what she asked.
"Watch your eyes!" Yue Xi pinched his hand.
"Don't be in front of other men in front of me, I don't like to hear it!" Ying Sujun's face sank slightly, and he looked ahead and said slowly: "Last time before you left Beijing, you actually ran away under his nose......"
"That's a lot of thinking." Yue Xi stopped, stopped him from snorting and said softly: "I have been in the palace for six years, and I don't think about anything else every day, I just think about how to escape, and I have thought about all kinds of situations in my heart. To put it mildly: if I want to run, few people can stop me! ”
"The prince of the county said at the time that he had received your order, so please don't embarrass him."
"He's told you all about it, and he got my order, why are you still running?" Ying Su immediately regretted this when he said this......
Sure enough, Yue Xi was silent for a moment before he said, "At that time, I hated you to death, how could I follow him back to see you......"
"Blame me!" Ying Su held her shoulder with one hand, bent down to wrap her legs, hugged her in his arms, and said sincerely: "Blame me for not just mentioning it again to make the lady sad, lady, or punish the husband to bathe and wipe your body for you?" ”
"!" Khan, who had just gone down, was startled by his words again, and Yue Xi kicked his legs and wanted to get off the ground: "I don't dare to bother the emperor's majesty Xià you ......"
"Doesn't the lady know that speaking for her husband is a golden mouth?" Holding the restless woman in her arms, Ying Su kicked open the back door of the dormitory with her foot, walked through the candle-lit corridor until she walked to the door of the bath room before putting her down: "Or ...... Let's wash it together......"
'Bang'!
The door of the bathroom opened and closed, and Yue Xi left him outside: "You honestly go back to warm the quilt for Lao Tzu, and I will give you a gift when the New Year comes......"
Her voice came out of it, accompanied by the sound of water being stirred up.
"A gift?" Ying Su stared at the two closed doors with faint eyes and muttered, "I just want you to ...... Yuexi"
"Do you have to enter the palace very early in the first day of junior high school?" Yue Xi suddenly asked.
"Hmm."
