Later, the mother and son of the Zeng family came back from outside, and Su Jinchen was already cooking on the fire in the kitchen as usual. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
"Didn't you tell you to rest? I'll just have to do it when I get back. Zeng Dachuan said that he hurriedly washed his hands, rolled up his sleeves and walked into the kitchen.
"That's it," Aunt Zeng greeted her with a smile outside the house, "Ah Xun hurry up and come out, and let this kid toss by himself." β
"Auntie will go into the house to rest, and I'll give Brother Zeng a hand." The girl smiled faintly, stretched out her finger and pointed to the basin covered with cloth next to her, "I have finished the noodles, and I don't know what you need, so I cut the green onion and shredded carrots...... The mushroom soup is boiled in the pot, and it can be out of the pot later, what else do you think? I'll prepare it for you. β
"No, no, that's enough." Zeng Dachuan said busily.
"Okay." Su Jinchen nodded with a smile, didn't speak again, only picked up the scoop and stirred it slowly in the pot. The girl's pale little face was shrouded in steaming heat, and it seemed to be dyed a little crimson, and even her watery eyes were red......
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
On the other hand, Chen Yifei heard the movement, and saw Zeng Dachuan rush into the kitchen as soon as he came back, and also came out of the house.
Before, he made a hard bow to Su Jinchen's overlord, how could he not know that he had hurt Su Jinchen's heart, and at this time, he was afraid that she would really say those angry words to Zeng Dachuan when she was disheartened, so she only pretended to pour water and wanted to find out.
Aunt Zeng was washing her hands in the yard, and when she saw this, she couldn't help rubbing her hand on her clothes, and smiled to pick up the teapot in Chen Yifei's hand, "Mr. Chen wants to drink water?" Leave me alone. β
"If you're busy inside, I'll go in later." Chen Yifei smiled politely, glanced at the kitchen, and asked casually, "Hey, Brother Zeng isβ"
"Oh," Aunt Zeng followed his gaze and glanced happily at the stove, "he's cooking for Ah Xun inside." β
Chen Yifei was stunned, and only smiled lightly, "Brother Zeng is really a good craft, and it is really rare to even know such things." β
"What's this," Aunt Zeng waved her hand disapprovingly, "He's no better than Mr. Chen...... I'm used to playing small fights, and there's nothing I can't do. Because of something, he couldn't help but smile and said, "It's Ah Xun, but he is really a capable and good boy...... I've saved a lot of trouble since she came......"
Chen Yifei smiled, "Ruo Xun, he is very capable......
As soon as he was halfway through speaking, he saw Su Jinchen come out of the kitchen with a plate.
At first glance, seeing the two chatting in the courtyard, Su Jinchen couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and then lowered his eyes and said, "Auntie, the meal is ready, let's go into the house to eat." β
"Hey." Aunt Zeng replied with a smile, not paying attention to the dark tide surging between the two.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
The meal was uneventful, but it was more silent than usual. Zeng Dachuan saw Su Jinchen's expression, and he didn't see much after eating half a cake for a long time, and only thought that she was too busy today and tired, so he consciously took over the work of washing dishes and boiling water after the meal, and only urged her to go back to rest.
Su Jinchen was already in a daze, and when he heard him say this, he didn't shirk anymore, and went into the house alone.
When Chen Yifei helped boil the hot water and washed back, the mattress on the kang had been laid for him as always.
The girl changed into a dark blue dress and sat in the corner with her knees crossed, staring at the faint shadows on the wall in a daze.
In the past, in order to take care of him at any time, the two of them have been sleeping on the same kang, but what happened this afternoon happened...... She subconsciously grabbed the shirt on her chest.
Although I changed my clothes, the chill that was so cold to my heart didn't seem to dissipate at all.
The room was eerily quiet, except for the sound of soft breathing, both his and hers.
She didn't turn her head, her eyes still stunned...... I just feel tired.
The dim light flickered and lit up the man's handsome cheeks, but the girl's small, lonely body was completely shrouded in darkness.
I don't know why, he suddenly remembered the gentle but firm gaze she had when she clenched the dagger that day, the tearful smile she had when she woke up, the song she hummed when she was drying the bedding, and the smile she hugged the rabbit and asked him what he wanted to eat today...... The more I thought about it, the more stuffy my heart became.
Chen Yifei sighed silently, lifted the quilt and lay in.
He is not without remorse......
But the stronger this remorse, the more difficult it is to speak......
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
The night suddenly changed, and the wind was fierce, and the leaves rustled.
Su Jinchen was finally extremely tired, and fell asleep leaning against the corner of the wall in a daze.
The faint moonlight shone on the cold inner room, and the man got up and got off the kang and picked her up.
The girl's body was already frozen, and a thick warmth came from his palms and chest...... Su Jinchen unconsciously moved his body and curled up into Chen Yifei's arms.
This kind of closeness made his heart soften, he lowered his head and rubbed his nose on Su Jinchen's sideburns, and carefully carried her back to the kang.
Gently remove the shoes and socks from the girl's feet...... He suddenly felt like he had been punched in the chest.
Chen Yifei was afraid that he had seen it wrong, so he took a closer look at the moonlight thrown in from the window.
I haven't seen it a few times...... But in my memory, the feet were delicate and smooth, white and tender like a baby, and the small nails were more like pink shells, shining with crystal light.
But now-
His hands trembled slightly over the scars on themβsome of them had grown up, leaving only dark brown scars, while others were just scabs, lying ugly on the soles of their feet, and the nails on several of his toes were split and cracked from the middle, and it hurt to look at them.
- "I didn't know the way after you fell unconscious that day...... I had to take you for a walk in the woods...... Fortunately, I met Brother Zeng later-"
He can still clearly remember the understatement on Su Jinchen's face when he talked about that experience......
The girl next to him seemed to be held very uncomfortably by him, frowned and snorted, struggling to retract her feet.
Only then did he realize that he had used some force in his hand, and his heart ached, and he immediately let go of her.
Su Jinchen seemed to be frightened by something, his body shrunk uneasily, and he trembled.
Chen Yifei simply lay down on her side, wrapped around the girl's emaciated waist from behind, and gently rubbed her back with his other hand.
I don't know how long it took, Su Jinchen's tense body finally relaxed, and he fell asleep in his arms.
He half-stood up, his thin lips kissed the corners of her eyes and eyebrows like a dragonfly, and murmured in a low voice, "It's me who is not good, I shouldn't use force on you...... Don't be angry with me anymore, let's all be fine in the future...... Good no good? β
At this time, even Chen Yifei himself couldn't say clearly...... A heart has long been completely lost for her, and I just want to love her all my life.
