179 Two leisurely, rural time
Lunch was ready, Zhan Xiaoyan returned to normal, and Yan Qihao stopped teasing her, because he still wanted to spend the next three days, if he teased her again, and she left directly because of shame, then he would lose more than he gained. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 After lunch, the two of them each took a nap for a while, and then went horseback riding in the afternoon, originally for horseback riding, and in such weather, when they were tired from riding, they must have been very comfortable to sit under the shade of the tree next to the stream.
Yan Qihao came to the meadow he said with a smile, not far from the house, because since it is in the countryside, there is still a lot of vacant land, except for farmland, not everyone has the money to buy land to build houses, so there are still a lot of vacant land, and it is very good to ride a horse here.
"Smiling, we're almost there, there's a willow tree there, now we're starting to speed up to see who gets under that willow tree first. Driving-" Yan Qihao said, just flicked the horsewhip, and quickly caught up with his smile, since he was on a whim, then of course he had to cooperate, and no matter what it was, it was also very good to be able to run for a while like this. And horses are animals that like to run, especially in the grassland, and now they can't find the grassland, and there is no grass here, so it's the same with grassland.
"Hehe, it seems that you won, this is the willow tree, and beyond that there is a forest, and after we ride our horses, we will go there to rest." After Yan Qihao asked the horse to stop, he turned his head and said with a smile. She had been brought here by herself, and running such a distance was not enough for the horses, so they had to keep running, run a few laps here, sweat well, and then rest for a while, and then go back to take a bath, which is very comfortable in such weather.
"Well, it's been a long time since I've run like this! Although you can ride a good ride when you are on the road, it is rare to have a chance to let the horse run freely and quickly, so it is really good. Smiling, do you feel happy? Yan Qihao ran a few laps with a smile on his face, and after his body gradually sweated, he said happily. Because if you let the horse run, it is not only the horse that will be tired, but also the person who sits on it and is shaken up and down by the body, and naturally sweats.
"Of course I'm happy, because the villa has a horse farm in it, and occasionally I go running with my grandfather or my younger siblings. This time I came to the countryside with you, the meadow here is very wide, we can run here for a while, it is also very good, we can come often in the future. Zhan smiled and touched the horse's head and said. Even though she was a woman, it felt good to gallop on a horse like this.
"Okay, this time I'm taking you to my place, let you participate in my territory, let you stay here and belong to you, wait for the next time, if you have any secret places that I don't know, you can also take me there, I believe it will be very good." After all, I also went back to the Eastern Wei Kingdom with you last time, and then entered the [Zhanfu], which should have a greater impact on each other's lives. The smiling face of Zhan Qihao is what Yan Qihao wants to see the most, and I believe that when her parents named her, they also hoped that she would always be happy.
"Okay, next time I find something good, I'll take you with me, but I haven't found it yet, so I'll enjoy it at your place now. Well, well, I'm going to go into the woods now, lie down in the shade and rest, and then go back on horseback or go back. Horses, go! Zhan smiled and let the horse walk forward with him, this time there was no need to let it run fast, just walk slowly forward.
"The owner of the house is back, and this time he's got a teenage girl with him, I wonder who he is?" When Yan Qihao and Zhan Xiaoyan were riding horses, there were also people in the village who were talking, it was the two women who were taking the soles of their shoes. Although Yan Qihao's house was not close to theirs, the village was so big, and if there was anything new, it would spread all at once, not to mention that there was such a family in the village who didn't come back often.
"We don't care who he brings, and it's only a momentary moment, so we just need to know about his arrival. He's not like us, he only stays here once in a while, so whoever he brings here, we don't care, we just need to know that he's coming. Another woman said. Because they were originally peasant families, they have lived here all their lives, not like that man, just as a place to settle down.
"I also know that he was originally a noble son, and he is different from those of us who live in rural families. It's just that I know he's coming, and I always have to talk about such a different person, otherwise it will be too boring if I just keep drying the soles of my shoes. As she spoke, the woman continued her movements, for the peasant family would always have to walk a lot, and the soles of their shoes must be thick and covered with several layers before they could wear them a few more times!
"Okay, hurry up and get the soles, we still have things to do in the future, and there are still many things waiting for us to do, so let's talk less and don't talk about other people like this all the time." Another woman, who was obviously not particularly broken-mouthed, said. Because when they haven't planted rice yet, as wives and mothers, it is impossible for them to spend a few days in a leisurely manner, of course, they have to start to do other trivial things at home one by one, and the soles of shoes are naturally the most important.
Of course, Yan Qihao and Zhan Xiaoyan didn't know what the two women were talking about them, and even if they knew, they wouldn't care. At this time, the two of them had finished riding, and were resting in the shade of the tree, and a blanket was spread on the ground, which of course was specially brought by Zhan Xiaoyan, just to be able to rest well, and it was also very appropriate to put it under the shade at this time. Lying on it like this, even if it's not for sleeping, you can have a good rest, and in such a season, of course, it will be very comfortable in the shade of the trees. Even if you have a lot of sweat on your body, it will still be a good enjoyment, and now it is time to apply!
"Smiling, what are we going to eat at night? Even though the lunch meal was only half of the ingredients, I would like to eat something different, so smile, do you have any opinions? Yan Qihao also closed his eyes and rested for a while, and then felt a little hungry, so he asked.
"Well, then let's catch a few fish in this creek, and we'll bake them for the night." However, when I stir-fry at noon, I don't seem to have an iron frame in the kitchen, so I can only boil fish soup and drink it, and then make all the remaining ingredients, and I can eat it well at night. Tomorrow, you'll go hunting in the mountains, I'll pick wild vegetables, and we'll have a pretty farmhouse dinner! Zhan Xiaoyan thought about it and said like this. Since they were going to stay here for three days, and Yan Qihao was afraid that the ingredients would not be fresh the next day, so he only brought enough ingredients for today's lunch and dinner.
"Of course you can! Then I'll go look for a branch that will make a hook now, and then we'll fish together and see how many fish we can catch when we don't have bait. Yan Qihao agreed to Zhan Xiaoyan's proposal, which was originally asked by him, and her proposal at this time is also very good, and it is also good to fish occasionally.
"It seems that you won, and I caught three fish, and you have five fish in the ditch there. Well, there are eight fish in total, enough for us to eat in the evening, and we can keep a few until noon tomorrow. Then I'll take these fish back, I'll go and borrow a barrel nearby, and then put the fish in it, and we'll go back. "After all, I'm still sweating, and I'm almost dry now, but the smell of sweat in my clothes is still terrible, so I have to go back to take a shower before I make dinner.
For Zhan Xiaoyan, this is also a rare leisure time, whether it is in the past life or in this life, she has never lived in the countryside, so now Yan Qihao has brought her here, feeling a completely different atmosphere from the capital, and looking at the scenery that cannot be seen in the capital, it is also a very good thing. And the life in the countryside is very simple, everyone is industrious sunrise and sunset, just take care of the family's food and clothing, although things are less, whether it is food or clothing, but there are not so many things, so at this time to feel such a simple local atmosphere, it is also very good!
After the two returned to the hut, Yan Qihao carried the bucket into the kitchen, then brought two buckets of hot water into the room, and mixed four buckets of hot water into it, and then said that he would clean up the fish first and then come over, let Zhan Xiaoyan take a bath first, and then come to make fish soup, as for the other dishes, he would make it. Zhan Xiaoyan stood beside him, letting him move, he didn't speak, just watched him bring in buckets of water, knowing that this was his thoughtfulness.
Half an hour later, Zhan Xiaoyan wiped her hair and walked out of the room, if it was just a bath, of course it wouldn't take so long, but she also washed her hair together, so it was a little slower. And she also wanted to see how Yan Qihao's dishes were doing, half an hour, I don't know how many dishes he made, now it's almost unitary time, she needs about half an hour to boil fish soup, because it's summer, so the sky is still very bright.
Zhan Xiaoyan came to the kitchen, looking at the two dishes that were already on the stove, at this time Yan Qihao was still cooking braised pork, and he had already taken out the two largest fish, and there were also the ingredients needed to make fish soup next to him, obviously planning to start making it after she came, since this is the case, then she will do it!
"Xiaoyan, are you done bathing? No, you don't have to do it, you just wait to teach me how to do it, you say next to you, I'll do it. Because for fish, I can only braise and steam, and I really haven't learned how to use it to make fish soup, so wait for you to tell me how to make fish soup, and I'll do it. Now that you've showered, don't sweat any more, don't come into the kitchen, just stay where you can see my movements at the door. As soon as Zhan Xiaoyan rolled up his sleeves, Yan Qihao saw it, so he hurriedly opened his mouth to stop it.
Because although he said so before, he wouldn't really let Zhan Xiaoyan do it, otherwise, he wouldn't let her bathe first. Otherwise, after bathing like this, you will definitely be contaminated with the smell of food and oil smoke in the kitchen, not to mention that you will have to eat dinner, and you will definitely sweat when you drink that bowl of fish soup.
"Well, since you say so, then of course I'm happy to be lazy, so I'll serve these three dishes first. I knew that you were going to do this, so I should have told you how to make the fish soup first, and then go to the bath, after all, it takes a long time to boil the fish soup, and when it tastes, you can make those three dishes, otherwise, the dishes will be cold, fortunately it is summer. Zhan smiled as he spoke, picked up the two dishes and walked out of the kitchen, and after putting them on the dining table, he stood at the door and instructed Yan Qihao to make fish soup.
"Okay, the three dishes and one soup are finished, let's start the meal!" But smile, of course my cooking skills are not as good as yours, so don't dislike the fish soup if it doesn't taste as good as you expected! After more than half an hour, Yan Qihao scooped the fish soup from the pot to the bowl, then brought it to the table, and after cooking for the two of them, he said to Zhan with a smile.
"Of course I won't dislike it, because it's already good if someone is willing to cook for me, and they make this meal very carefully, so I will eat it very seriously, not just to fill my stomach." Zhan said with a smile. Whether it is because the fish was caught by the two of them in the afternoon, or because the dishes are made seriously by Yan Qihao, and for the dishes made by others, as long as they are not the kind that cannot be eaten, Zhan Xiaoyan will eat them very seriously. It is precisely because I know how to cook that I will feel different when I eat a meal made by someone else once in a while!
"Okay, then you can eat more smiles, because this is the first time I have directly cooked the dish, and the two of us have eaten together, and we have made it in the palace before, put it in the food box, and then bring it to you to eat. Here, eat a piece of braised pork! Yan Qihao heard Zhan Xiaoyan say this, and immediately relaxed, because he was actually very nervous!
Of course, a dinner is a meal that both of them are satisfied, home-cooked three dishes and one soup, making people have a warm conversation, in this small thatched hut is full of it, although it is such a season, such an environment, it can also give people a great feeling, and this dish is really delicious, so both of them are very full.
