Chapter 9 Barbecue in the Kitchen at Night

In July, the summer in the north is slowly coming, and the increase in sunshine hours has made the plants grow wildly, and the shade of several large trees in the back garden is almost covering most of the pond. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

It's not just those trees that grow fast in the house, but also Asu, who eats and exercises hard, after a few months of physical exercise, she has also grown a lot taller like a little sapling basking in the sun and drinking the rain and dew, and she only reached the tip of Aru's nose when spring first came, and now she has leveled Aru's eyebrows, although it is still a little shorter than Aru, but this speed has made Aso very satisfied.

In the spring, the dresses that Aru took her to do began to be a little short, and He Erniang happily pulled Asu to order a few more. At this time, after stripping off the heavy winter clothes and putting on the light corseted collar skirt, Aso began to be slim, not as childish as when he first came, and gradually revealed a girlish vitality.

In addition to the changes in his figure, Asu's cooking skills have also improved, and now He Erniang has begun to praise Aru's good cooking. It's just that since that overboard incident, Asu has never mentioned the matter of practicing martial arts, even if he goes for a run, he tries to avoid the time when Li Xiang may appear, but Li Xiang doesn't seem to know the reason, and occasionally meets and asks Asu why he doesn't go running.

Asu is also inconvenient to say, so he has to find a reason to prevaricate, and the people in the house see that the two do not have much intersection, and the remarks about Asu's unrequited love will naturally gradually subside, but it is Aru, who is closer to Li Xiang, and the two have gone out together a few times.

For Li Xiang, Asu is a little deliberately evasive, but for another person, Asu seems to want to see him a little. Since that encounter with Li Hui in the kitchen, Aso has been looking forward to this kind of encounter, and the number of visits to the kitchen at night has increased, which is probably a reason for Aso's cooking skills to improve.

And Li Hui because of his studies, he only has one day off every ten days, and there are small exams before the holiday, so he meets Asu relatively rarely, and he meets in the kitchen at night like last time, although Asu often goes, but he has only met Li Hui a few times occasionally, but every time the two of them talk very pleasantly, chatting with him, Asu always seems to find many topics, and even the things made at that time seem to be particularly delicious.

Li Hui's attitude towards Asu has always been similar, gentle with a little naughty, polite with a little care, not far away and not near. Although Asu doesn't know the other party's intentions, he is at least sure that he doesn't hate himself, and he doesn't treat her as a child, and he can always listen patiently to some of Asu's whimsical ideas, which even his sister Aru can't do, so Aso is always looking forward to meeting and talking to him.

The last overboard incident, although it became a bad scandal, but the only good thing is to let Asu see from everyone's attitude that people up and down the house are happy to see him marry Xiao Langjun in the house, although the last rumor was the second cousin, Asu boldly imagined that if everyone knew that they belonged to San Lang in the future, Ah Niang and they should not object. At that time, she will really become Ah Yue's sister-in-law, and when Aso thinks of this, she can't help but giggle when she is alone.

In the afternoon of this day, the noisy screaming outside the window kept talking, Aru's room, Asu was bored on the table to watch the opposite sister make sachets, although he followed his sister to learn for several months, but for the female red, Asu really didn't have much interest, "Sister, who are you making sachets for?" Ah Ru didn't answer, so she continued to ask, "You just made one yourself, and Ah Niang doesn't need it, this color looks like a man wears it." ”

"Well, I can't wear it by changing the color myself." Aru replied without raising his head.

Asu sat up straight and poked his head out to take a look, "Why do I think that the one you embroidered now is quite careful, more delicate than the last one." ”

Aru hurriedly put down the needle and thread in his hand, looked up at Asu and said with a smile, "That's you, you look exquisite and beautiful in everything." ”

Asu leaned his head closer, lowered his voice and said, "Sister, in the past few months, I have found that you have been relatively close to your second cousin, and you have followed him out a few times, is it for him?" ”

Ah Ru hurriedly answered, and her expression suddenly became solemn, "It's not what you think, my second cousin and I are just brother and sister, and when we go out, Ah Niang or Mrs. Wang will order us to do things together." ”

"Then why don't you call the eldest cousin or San Lang?"

"The eldest cousin is an official, and he has official business, San Lang knows, most of the time he studies in the state. And they don't wear it. As soon as Ah Ru said this, Ah Su felt that it made some sense, Lang Jun was naturally busy with official business and would not take care of family affairs, so it seemed that the second cousin was indeed a suitable candidate.

"It's easy to talk about things, and you can get close to the house, how many times the second cousin asked someone to call you over, sister, don't be embarrassed, is your favorite person the second cousin?" Aso continued to ask.

Aru thought seriously for a while, put down the needle and thread, and finally her cheeks turned red, and she said sneeringly, "It's not for the second cousin, this is for that person." You've seen it too, think about it. The last few words were so small that I couldn't hear them.

Asu recalled carefully, fortunately, she hadn't seen many young men, and immediately thought of the person she met a few months ago when she was shopping on East Street with Aru, "I remember, what Gorou is here?" A good friend of my second cousin, his father and our uncle also know each other? ”

"Well, his name is Fu Guyang, the fifth in line, and he often came to our house to play when he was a child." When Aru said his name, she couldn't help but touch her hot cheek.

Seeing this, Aru's interest immediately rose, and she continued to boldly step forward while the iron was hot and asked, "Are you two better?" ”

Asu pushed Aru away and said with a smile, "No, I just went out with my second cousin and met a few times, and there were a few times when he came to find my second cousin, and by the way, he also talked to me a few times, the relationship is not bad, but it has not developed to the way you think." ”

"And does he like you?"

Seeing that Asu was getting more and more excited, Aru even spoke a little louder, so he quickly stretched out his index finger and put it on his mouth, signaling a smaller voice, and then continued, "Be quiet, don't let people listen, he didn't say that he liked me, but I still feel that he still has the heart to meet me, and I went out with my second cousin several times, and met him, and every time he dragged us to eat together, and also told my second cousin that he wanted to take me out to play more." The few times you said that the second cousin asked someone to call me over, he also came to propose to the second cousin. Speaking of this, Aru had a sweet smile on her face.

"I think he should like his sister, my sister is so beautiful." Aso said with a grin.

"I don't know, but when it comes to beauty, there is a real beauty in their family, who is famous in Shuofang County."

"Wow, who is it?" Aru's curiosity came up again, and she asked with wide eyes.

"Brother Yang's sister Coral, even in her old age, has been a beautiful embryo since she was a child, with a gorgeous appearance and a tall figure, everyone says that it is a tweed in Shuofang County. Because of my father and brother, she came to my house a lot. After Qingming, she followed her mother back to her mother's house to mourn, her mother's home was far away, and she had to be half a year younger, and she heard Brother Yang say that she would come back in a few days, and when you see her, you will know what is really beautiful. Speaking of this, Aru looked a little lonely, sighed, and continued, "There is such a beautiful sister in the family, and my brother's vision is probably quite high." ”

"Sister, don't worry, Fugu Goro must be interested in you, otherwise why do you always look for opportunities to meet you? I only call you out if I like you, and I don't care about you if I don't like it. When Aso said this, he suddenly thought of himself and fell into deep thought. Since the first chance encounter with Li Hui's kitchen, in the days that followed, although I went to the kitchen many times at night to cook food, but in the past few months, I can count the number of times I have met him, and I have been diligent in cooking for him every time. Moreover, he didn't seem to have gone out of his way to chat with him, but Ah Yue often called her over to play. Thinking about it so carefully, every encounter seemed to him to be a chance encounter, and Aso couldn't help but feel lost in his heart, feeling like he had a hot face on his cold ass.

Aru didn't pay attention to the change in Asu's expression, and continued, "Actually, you know, my uncle is a military general, and he rarely wears sachets, and his brothers don't wear them at home. The second cousin said that good is troublesome, and he is too lazy to ask others to do it, and those who practice martial arts are afraid that they will not be used to it. In the end, he didn't want to buy one, but it looked dispensable, but since Brother Yang said that he thought it was good to refresh and repel mosquitoes, then I would make one like this and give it to him. Look, doesn't this look good, won't it be too expensive? After speaking, he handed the sachet over and touched her with his elbow.

"Oh, sachets, good-looking, good-looking." Ah Su didn't hear the previous words, and after listening to the last few words, he replied casually, fortunately, Ah Ru didn't notice it, just looked at his work, suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said, "Ah Su, I'll tell you about it, don't tell Ah Niang, the eight characters haven't been skimmed yet." ”

"Doesn't the second cousin know, he won't not see it, right?" Asu couldn't help but ask, Li Xiang's rough line personality is not so bad that it can't be seen.

"I don't know, the second cousin has always been very aggressive, but I went out with him during this period of time, and he also called Brother Shangyang several times, I don't know if it was intentional or unintentional." Aru smiled and continued, "Asu, in fact, I really think that the second cousin is a good person, don't keep avoiding him, he once asked me, why do you feel that you are avoiding him a little?" ”

Asu listened to his hands on his cheeks, and said thoughtfully, "I just don't want people to misunderstand that I mean something else to him, and I also know that others are good." He turned his head and glanced at Aru deeply, and continued, "I heard that when my aunt was here, I had the idea of marrying my sister to one of the three brothers in the house, and the three brothers have good character and appearance, why hasn't my sister been tempted?" ”

Ah Ru listened, and also followed Asu's appearance and held her head, and thought about it, she really hadn't thought about this question before, "I was young before, I didn't think about it so much, my aunt and mother said that, and I heard it as a joke, so I didn't take it to heart." Now, thinking about it, I think the eldest cousin is more serious and the oldest, and I feel that I can't play with him; The second cousin has the best relationship, but because he is too familiar, he just thinks about the elder brother in his heart; Although Saburo is the closest in age and is very gentle, he somehow has a sense of distance, and he doesn't feel very close? In addition, he has been studying in the state, and he has relatively little time to go home. After speaking, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and he looked at Asu mischievously, "Asu, why do you ask this, isn't it the second cousin, isn't it the other two?" ”

Asu felt almost guessed by her, so she quickly sat up and looked up and replied, "I'm young now, and like my sister, I haven't thought about it so much." But in my heart, I thought that it was useless for me to have a mind, and now Li Hui didn't seem to have that meaning to himself, so he didn't take the opportunity to approach, let alone come over to make an appointment.

Compared with the frequent interaction between Aru and Fugu Goro, Aso thought about it carefully, and only felt that his thoughts about Li Hui were just his wishful thinking.

The afternoon sun illuminated the room brightly, but the two girls in the room had different expressions, one looked calm and embroidered with sachets, and the other looked out of the window with a heavy heart.
