Chapter 73: The small courtyard is full of joy
The corners of Helian Sheng's sexy mouth curled slightly, although it was a very light arc, it showed his mood at the moment, which should be very good.
Then," he said, as soon as he raised his hand, the large grass carp in his hand threw it towards Mu Xiang.
"Ahh
Muxiang reflexively took a step back and reached out to cover her face. I'm afraid that he will be too accurate and smash the fish in her face.
But the fish didn't fall at her, but at her feet.
"Eldest sister, pick up the fish quickly," Mu Lang jumped over, saw the opportunity, jumped a few times on the big fish, and when he didn't slow down, his hands pinched, "This bucket is almost unfilled, I'll take it back, and I'll bring this bucket back later." ”
Mu Lang strode excitedly and ran home.
"You run slowly, what are you doing in such a hurry?" Mu Xiang stared at his back and raised her voice to admonish.
Helian Sheng said coldly: "He's not a girl, look at you nervously, come and pick up my clothes!" He dropped his shovel and reached out to unfasten it.
Mu Xiang was stunned, and after blinking his eyes a few times, he hurriedly turned his face away and complained, "It's not summer, you're still soaking in the water, aren't you afraid of the wind and cold?" "This person is not a little bit bad. Although she only looked at it twice, she turned her face away.
But just one glance can also make her see someone standing in the muddy water, still moving gracefully, slender fingers, and gently unbuttoning. Revealing a muscular chest and well-defined arms.
Although in her previous life, she had seen many light men, fat and thin, muscular, and emaciated.
When a certain gentleman was on the air, everyone was wearing briefs, and everything was exposed except for the most important point.
But compared with Helian Sheng, the figures of those people make people feel bored when they look at them.
Sure enough, people are more angry than people!
Unlike Mu Xiang's face was red and his heart was beating faster, Helian Sheng took off his clothes with confidence, and threw his clothes on the shore, "Compared to soaking in snow water in winter, this little cold water is nothing." ”
Mu Xiang agrees with this, in her previous life, she also went through devilish training to become the world's top killer. Since firing her first shot at the age of ten, killing the first person, she has spent her life in murder and escape. During the special period, even the dead man slept in the pile.
But she didn't expect that accident, her soul actually crossed over, live one more life, that kind of day, if it is not necessary, she doesn't want to do it again, it is not easy to live!
Helian Sheng saw that she didn't speak, her back to his figure, and he was vaguely lonely.
He hooked his lips and smiled, and suddenly reached out and scooped a handful in the water.
Mu Xiang was still calm in his thoughts, and a slippery thing rolled over his feet, and when he looked down, it turned out to be another crucian carp that was still bouncing.
"Oh, if you want to throw it, don't say a word," Mu Xiang shook his trouser legs, and bit his lip helplessly when he saw the mud spots on it.
Helian Sheng smiled deeply, and actually taught her a lesson, "Now is not the time for you to be in a daze, pick a few fresh fish, cook them at noon, and take care of the rest yourself." ”
Mu Xiang twisted his eyebrows and said: "The rest is only pickled, and then smoked and dried with straw, you can put it for a long time, otherwise I will pickle it and sell it, and I can exchange it for money!" ”
Helian Shengjun's face darkened, "What to sell, if you are short of money, just tell me, there are as many as you want, can the fish caught by the master be measured in silver?" The arrogant tone is domineering. His true identity is incompatible with the way he is standing in the muddy water now.
Mu Xiang's belly was slandered, this person is really not ordinary narcissism. This pond can also produce hundreds of catties of fish, cut off the smaller ones, only the big ones, and there are a lot of them, all of them are left, just their three sisters and brothers, three meals a day can't be eaten!
Besides, she doesn't seem to know him well, so why should she spend his money.
"I have my own hands and feet, I don't need to spend other people's money, your money should be kept to marry a daughter-in-law!"
The first sentence is the truth, and the last sentence is a joke, and there is nothing special about it. She didn't know who Helian Sheng was, but she just guessed that he might be from a big family, or he might have an official position. According to her experience, such a man, even if he doesn't marry a wife, there are no maids and concubines in the house.
In short, there is no shortage of women!
Mu Xiang lives longer, and many things are also undervalued, and only by living a simple life can he live for a long time.
But when he heard these words in Helian Sheng's ears, he had another taste, he glanced at Mu Xiang deeply, did not explain much, and bent down to continue cleaning the pond.
Mu Lang quickly ran back and brought Caiyun with him.
Caiyun was carrying a vegetable basket in his hand, because there was no extra bucket at home, so he had to carry the vegetable basket.
Mu Lang ran over quickly, busy picking up the fish that were thrown on the shore and were still bouncing. Not only did he pick it up himself, but he also urged Mu Xiang and Caiyun to come and pick it up together.
As there were more and more fish on the shore, Mu Xiang really had to admire Helian Sheng's skills.
It took him only a short time to build an earthen dam in the middle of the pond, and his two strong arms waved, and he could only see the water splashing.
Half of the pond was cleared, and the big fish, soon revealing their fat bodies, fluttered in the muddy water, and the people on the shore were also delighted to see the jubilant scene in the pond.
Helian Sheng's action of catching fish was fast and accurate, almost one catch at a time, and he did not miss every time. Mu Xiang is very suspicious, this guy's profession shouldn't be a fisherman, right?
It's impossible to think about it, and the only explanation can only be that people are not ordinary humans.
Near noon, the pot brought by Mu Lang was filled with a lot of fish, and the vegetable basket brought by Caiyun also contained a few big fish. Seeing that the hour was not early, Mu Xiang went home with Caiyun in advance, and the fresh fish had to be disposed of as soon as possible.
Caiyun didn't wait for Chen Youfa to sell tofu at home, and when he heard Mu Lang talk about catching fish in the pond, he couldn't bear it for a while, so he locked the door and ran to catch fish with them.
When she and Mu Xiang were carrying the vegetable basket home, they happened to run into Chen Youfa, who was driving a donkey cart from the village.
"Uncle Chen, do you still have tofu?" Mu Xiang left the basket at the door of the house, ran to stop the donkey cart, and stopped him.
"Yes, there is still the last half of the board left, how much do you want?" Chen Youfa smiled, grabbed the reins with one hand, and made the donkey stop.
Mu Xiang lifted the cotton gauze on the cart, "Call it all to me, my family cooks fish at noon, and the rest is soaked in water, and it won't be bad, is there dried tofu?" I want to marinate it and dry it, and keep it for a slow time! ”
Chen Youfa jumped out of the car, picked up a kitchen knife and pulled the tofu into small squares, and heard that she was making dried tofu, so she wondered: "I don't make much dried seeds, I have sold them all, why don't I send you some in the afternoon?" ”
"No, no, I just ask, if I don't have it today, you can leave some for me tomorrow, it's the same," Mu Xiang waved his hand.
"I still have something to tell you today, I made some bean sprouts, I originally wanted to sell them myself, but look at me, there is no donkey cart, and I don't have the time to go through the village to run and trade, so Uncle Chen, let's discuss, when you sell tofu, can you sell it along the way, sell more and sell less, the price or anything, it doesn't matter, the main thing is that I want to sell the bean sprouts."
When Chen You heard this, his hand cutting tofu stopped, a little excited, and a little worried, "This ...... Aren't you going to suffer a loss? Besides, I don't know how to burn this tofu, let alone others, can I sell something that everyone doesn't know? "Hesitation is hesitation, Muxiang's conditions are so good, it is equivalent to a business without capital, it is difficult for him to be tempted.
Mu Xiang nodded confidently, "This bean sprout is best burned, you wait, I'll let my sister take it out for you to see!" She turned around and shouted to Caiyun in the courtyard and asked her to take out some mung bean sprouts and soybean sprouts.
Mu Xiang pointed to the delicate mung bean sprouts and explained to Chen Youfa: "We all cooked vegetables yesterday, my second sister and third brother like to eat, it is definitely delicious, this mung bean sprouts are relatively tender, and they are hot when they are burned in a spicy pot, if they are fried with leeks, they are also very fragrant, as for soybean sprouts, they should be burned longer than mung bean sprouts, and they are made of roast meat or shrimp, which is suitable for dishes with heavy tastes, otherwise they are eaten cold, anyway, no matter how they are burned, the taste will not be bad." ”
Chen Youfa recognized the bean sprouts, when his family used to make tofu, the soybeans were not handled well, and occasionally there were sprouts, but the sprouts that came out of the soybeans were poisonous according to the old man, and the color was not as good as Muxiang's family, and it was very annoying to look at.
He thought for a while and said, "Why don't I take some back at noon to try it, I have to try it myself before I can recommend it to others, girl, right?" ”
Mu Xiang smiled and agreed, "Okay, you can take these back, I'll give you two more fish, my family got a pond, picked up a few fish, when cooking at noon, ask Aunt Chen to cook the fish into a spicy taste, and then put the tofu in and cook it together, it must be delicious!" She winked at Caiyun, and Caiyun ran home.
"Ouch, don't want fish, your family is not rich, keep it for yourself to eat," Chen Youfa was willing to ask for her fish. Mu Xiang often buys his tofu, and he knows a lot about the situation of Mu Xiang's family, such a big girl lives alone with her younger siblings, and it is not easy to feed them.
"I have it at home, it's best to eat it when it's fresh, and if you pickle the salted fish, it's not fresh," Mu Xiang said as Caiyun came out with two big carps tied with straw ropes in one hand and rested on Chen Youfa's cart.
Chen Youfa was very upset, so he insisted on not wanting their tofu money, in comparison, the price of tofu and fish is not at the same level, or he earned it!
said that he would send Ganzi over in the afternoon, business was good today, and the weather was okay, so Chen Youfa thought about selling tofu by the way, and if he couldn't sell it, he would take it home. Recently, it has been cold, and his family has made a lot of tofu.
Caiyun brought the tofu home, and started cooking with her eldest sister.
Eating fish at noon is for sure, Mu Xiang thought it would be better to make a boiled fish, last time I did it in Fushou Building, Caiyun and Mu Lang didn't eat it, there is fish at home today, and there are enough fish, make more boiled fish, let them eat enough.
Actually, there was another reason, but she automatically ignored it.
Helian Sheng soaked in the water for a short time, and ate spicy dishes at noon to drive away the cold.
Caiyun washed the rice and put it into the pot, and said to Mu Xiang: "Sister, I'll cook the rice, and I'll go to wash the fish, you can cook the food alone at noon, I'll go to fetch water first," Mu Lang hasn't come back yet, I'm afraid that my hands will get a fishy smell, and I'll get it everywhere, Caiyun is going to get some water first, put it in a bucket, put it alone, and then take care of those fish.
Mu Xiang stopped her, "You wait, don't be in such a hurry, you don't have to watch the fish at noon, I'll go with you to get it, you can't finish it until dark." "She's putting it
Caiyun carried the bucket to the well, and said without looking back: "It's okay, I'll get it first, you cook the vegetables first." ”
Other girls didn't dare to kill the fish, but Caiyun was very calm, she first cut the small fish.
Before killing the fish, she rubbed the kitchen knife on the edge of the well, and sharpened it slightly, which would be much faster.
There is a bluestone slab along the edge of the well, or when Wu Qing was there last time, he went to the river to pick it up, in addition to this piece, there are several smooth and flat pebbles in the yard, a broken pebble is piled up into a rectangular platform, usually dry goods at home, or dry sauce or something, are placed on it, it is very convenient to use.
Caiyun fished out a rag and put it on the stone slab to prevent the fish scales from slipping.
The scales need to be scraped against the growth direction of the scales, pinching the head of the fish with one hand and copying the kitchen knife with the other hand to quickly scrape the scales.
Next, the fish is placed horizontally and the belly of the fish is cut open with a kitchen knife. The strength should be just right, not too heavy or too light. If it is too heavy, it will cut the internal organs of the fish and make it difficult to clean. It's too light to scratch.
If you want to marinate the fish, you have to cut it open from the back of the fish. Because the meat on the back of the fish is the thickest, if you don't apply salt, the fish will spoil easily.
Caiyun is not in a hurry to clean the dissected fish, she will put it aside first, and it will not be too late to wash it when it is finished.
Mu Xiang was worried about Caiyun cleaning up the fish in the yard alone, and the action of cooking quickened.
The coriander in the vegetable garden was when it was tender, and when she went to look for Da Mei in the morning, Caiyun went to dig up some fresh ones.
Mu Xiang thought about making a cold salad.
The method is also very simple, after the coriander is cleaned and cleaned, cut into small pieces, add salt and mix evenly, about five minutes, the water in the coriander will seep out and force the water dry.
Put a spoonful of vegetable oil in the pot, boil, wait for the oil to cool a little, and put the dried red pepper in it. The chili powder is ground by herself with a stone mill, and when it is boiled in vegetable oil, it becomes fragrant chili oil, which is poured on the coriander, and the fragrance is fragrant. Finally, when it's time to eat, add a few drops of sesame oil.
If it was left in the past, sesame oil was such a high-end product, and their family would not dare to think of it. But now it's different, not only because he has money, but also because Mu Xiang feels that he can't treat his stomach badly. To live is to eat well, sleep well, and be in a good mood.
Some eat and eat, and some sleep and sleep, so that when they open their eyes one day, they go back again for some reason, so this trip is not a big loss.
The coriander grown at home is a pollution-free natural vegetable, and even if it is only made with simple and common seasonings, it will be very fragrant and delicious.
As for the boiled fish, because she has to make it herself, her knife skills are not as good as those chefs in Fushoulou, and the fish that comes out are big and small, and she almost didn't cut her hand.
But fortunately, after a long time, I finally slipped out a small half pot of fish.
Remove the bones of the fish, and you can't throw it away, but you can use it to boil it into a fish soup and make a soup base.
In order to make the fish more tender and smooth. Egg whites, salt, and a little vinegar are mixed and wrapped in the fish.
She has a lot of spices, and it is very convenient to make seasonings, and the spices have to be used with oil once, so that the fragrance can be forced out very well, but when the oil is over, the heat should be good, otherwise it is easy to paste the pot.
Soybean sprouts are available at home, and with a large piece of tofu, it is just right to make an ingredient for boiled fish.
Because the soybean sprouts have a slightly bitter taste, they have to be fried in vegetable oil and dried red peppers until they are half-cooked.
As for the fish, it is to wait for the fish bone broth to boil, only force the soup out, throw away the bone residue, and then put the previously oiled spices in it, and boil it over high heat to let the aroma of the spices fully integrate into the fish broth.
The fish slices are thin and only need to be cooked a little before they are ready to eat.
So before that, you have to put the soybean sprouts in and cook them to let the sprouts absorb the flavor of the spicy fish soup.
When half a pot of boiled fish boiled, Mu Xiang took out a casserole and served the vegetables. The casserole has the effect of keeping warm, otherwise it will be warmed in the earthen stove pot, and when you go back to eat it, it will become crumbs.
The hot steam in the cauldron also came up, and the kitchen was filled with a mixture of white rice and spicy fish soup.
The Chen Mei'e family next door was also greedy, the corner of Li Yuanbao's mouth was wet, the placket on his chest was wet, his eyes stared directly at the courtyard wall, the direction of Mu Xiang's house, and looked at the chimney of her kitchen, curling green smoke, envious.
Chen Mei'e was also cooking in the kitchen at this time, her family raised a few old hens, laid eggs, and stewed a bowl of egg custard for her son at noon every day, which can be regarded as improving fire food.
A bowl of egg custard, if it was left a few months ago, it would definitely be a delicacies from the mountains and seas, and the three of them were not even blessed to smell it.
But now is different from the past, the kitchen of Mu Xiang's house, the smell of meat wafts out every day, either fish or beef, and they eat white rice every day, such days, even the rich families in the town can't compare, can they not envy?
Chen Mei'e turned out from behind the stove, patted the grass clippings on her apron, glared at Li Yuanbao, who was sitting in the yard drooling, and scolded angrily: "Look, what's so good-looking, you don't have your share of what people eat, and you can't eat it anymore!" ”
Li Yuanbao ignored her, didn't even blink his eyes, and remained motionless like a mountain like a sculpture.
Su Xiu pushed open the courtyard door and came into the house, she was in a good mood today, she walked lightly, and when she entered the door, she still had a smile on her face, "Yo, Yuanbao, what are you doing sitting here?" It's not cold outside, go back to the house! ”
Yuan Bao turned his head to look at her, and the horn of his mouth swayed like a long silver thread with his movements. He pouted, complaining, "No, I'm going to sit here!" ”
"Look at your useless appearance, the old man's people have told you to lose everything," Su Xiu glared at him in disgust, and bypassed him to enter the house.
When I walked to the door of the hall, I suddenly thought of something, stopped my steps, turned around and smiled deeply at Li Yuanbao, and said: "If you really want to eat her family's dishes, why don't you just go over and beg her, let her give you a bowl, anyway, her family is living a good life now, even Liu Erdan often goes to her house to eat, you are also her brother, you go to beg, maybe she will be soft-hearted, there is one and two, with the first time, if you want to eat in the future, it will be easy!" ”
The meaning of Su Xiu's words, Li Yuanbao will not understand. Now that their relationship with Mu Xiang is stiff, they don't have any contact at all, and they don't know what Mu Xiang is doing at home all day long. But seeing that her family's small life is getting better and better day by day, she and Chen Mei'e are both red-eyed.
Let the ingots go is the most appropriate, not only can he fill his stomach, but he may also find out what news, so that they can also follow the light.
Chen Mei'e heard Su Xiu's words in the kitchen, and suddenly came to her senses, holding a loofah pulp that was still dripping with water in one hand, she poked her head out, and encouraged Li Yuanbao, saying: "Your sister is right, why does her family eat delicious food, she doesn't give it to you, are you and Mu Gou'er still brothers, Yuanbao go quickly, say a few soft words, if she doesn't give it, you will stand at the door of her house, I don't believe that the girl's heart can still be made of iron and stone, it just so happens that your father is not at home today, he can't see it, hurry up!" ”
Li Yuanbao was pinched by the two of them, his heart itched like a kitten's paws, and he smelled the smell of the fish meat stronger, and his little butt couldn't sit still anymore, so he stood up and was about to go to Mu Xiang's house.
Su Xiu followed to the gate, dragged him, and gave him a few tricks in his ear.
Li Yuanbao nodded again and again, but he was still a little nervous.
I didn't think Mu Xiang's eldest sister was a big deal before, but watching her get angry one after another, fighting with others, and beating his mother, when she was angry, she looked very fierce, could he not be stunned?
On the other side, the courtyard of Mu Xiang's house is very busy.
After the noon dish was cooked, Mu Xiang began to take care of the fish with Caiyun, cleaned it, and salted it again in the afternoon.
The smell of fish was also attracted to several wild cats in the village, all of which were on the wall of Mu Xiang's house, and a pair of greedy cat eyes stared at the broken wooden basin, eager to pounce down immediately.
Black Treasure also came to the spirit, it is not interested in fish offal, but it does not like cats!
When he saw several cats intruding into his territory at once, could he not be angry?
"Wow!"
Heibao barked several times in the direction of the wild cats, and the wild cats also expected that it would not be able to climb the wall, and the wild cats themselves were bold. When he heard Heibao's cry, he didn't leave or speak, and he also protested and wagged his tail at Heibao, very arrogant.
The fish under Caiyun's hand was almost cut, and she also saw those cats, and said in a worried voice: "Sister, I'm afraid that our fish can't be seen, and these cats, even if they are hung on the beams of the house, they will definitely not be able to stop them." ”
Feral cats are fierce and smarter than domestic cats. Domestic cats are afraid of their owners, so they don't dare to go to the fish hanging high on the beams of the house, but wild cats are different, they don't care about it.
Mu Xiang raised his head and skimmed his eyes, and a few big cats who were squatting or lying on the wall snorted coldly, and the action of cleaning the fish in his hands did not stop, and said lightly: "They dare to come and say it, kill a few, and see if they dare." ”
When she said that when she slaughtered the cat, her tone was so light and breezy, as if she was explaining the weather.
Caiyun frowned slightly, "I heard the old man in the village say that cats have spirituality and memory, so they can't be slaughtered, right?" What if you get into trouble? ”
This is true, the legend says that cats have a few lives, and they can also be cultivated into demons, especially those pair of cat eyes, when looking at people, there is a sense of demony. It is not surprising that ordinary people look scared.
But here in Muxiang, a cat is a cat.
It's hard to save some food at home, and next year she wants to send Mu Lang and Caiyun to the school, and if she doesn't save more money, it will definitely not work.
These fish, in fact, she has other ideas, she wants to exchange the dried fish for money to solve the problem of Mu Lang and Caiyuncai's bondage, naturally she can't let this group of evil cats please and cheapen.
"It's okay, at night, put Heibao in the kitchen, and they don't dare to come in, and our golden chicken, it's not a good stubble, I don't believe you go outside to take a look."
"Really?" Caiyun half-held two dirty hands and ran outside.
Not to mention the golden chicken, Caiyun is about to take it, and only raises it as an ordinary chicken. And the brocade chicken is also very good, only locked in the cage for a few days, and then very obediently stay with the chicken. However, in order to prevent it from flying away, Mu Xiang cut off its beautiful wings.
For this reason, the brocade chicken was depressed for a long time, wilted, and couldn't keep up the spirits.
When Caiyun ran to the gate, he saw at a glance, staring at the group of wild cats with golden feathers and golden pheasants.
The black bean-like eyes burst out with a heavy and fierce color. Even Caiyun, who is a human being, saw the anger of the golden feather golden pheasant, and really wanted to peck those wild cats to death.
It's a pity that the beautiful wings were clipped, and then the pose, there was no original majestic state.
Caiyun ran back to the well with a smile, sighing, "Sister, you are really right, why do our golden chickens look like they want to peck them to death when they see wild cats, wild cats are not easy to mess with, it is said that it should be afraid." ”
Mu Xiang smiled and said: "This question is not complicated at all, do you think, these wild cats usually don't run around in the village, they just go up the mountain to dig out the bird's nest, those newly hatched birds, and the eggs that have not come out of the shell, they must have taken out a lot, can the birds in the woods not hate their teeth when they see them?" They're predators! "Speaking of which, the golden pheasant is also a kind of bird, and it also lays eggs, maybe their enemies have been married for several lifetimes.
"Oh, I see," Caiyun nodded as if he didn't understand. Obviously, I still don't understand what a chicken and a cat can have.
Their conversation didn't continue, because Mu Lang and Helian Sheng were back.
Helian Sheng probably went to the river to wash it, and the clothes on his body didn't look like they were fished out of the mud, but they weren't clean. And the soaked material stuck to him, exposing his toned body.
The abdominal muscles on the chest are even more well-defined, and the wood fragrance is very uncompromising.
Mu Lang carried the bucket, his body was full of mud ideas, he put the bucket on the edge of the well, the excitement on his little face had not faded, and he panted and said: "Brother Helian has raised half of the fish pond, and the remaining half, we will do it again in the afternoon, he and I are hungry, is lunch ready?" ”
Mu Xiang got up and washed his hands, seeing that the two of them were dirty like this, he wanted to pout, but after thinking about it, it was all for the sake of the fish pond, not to play, so he had to helplessly respond to Mu Lang's question, "The meal has already been ready, just wait for you to come back, but looking at the current appearance of the two of you, I will definitely not be able to eat, I will go to the kitchen to fetch water, wash it before eating." ”
She glared at Helian Sheng, remembering the first time she had seen that guy. Dressed in brocade clothes, he sat upright. Even if you don't say a word, even a look can make people feel incomparably honored.
But now!
Look at the stains on this body, even the hair has a few grains of mud on it.
Barefoot, bare-chested, the original elegance is no longer there, except that the innate honor and temperament in the bones are still retained, it is simply like two people.
Helian Sheng didn't care about how bad his current appearance was, he just looked at Mu Xiang with deep eyes, his black eyes that had always been as cold as ice, and after hearing Mu Xiang's helpless words, he felt a little warmer.
Since he was a child, the most important thing is status and wealth, it can be said that he was born as a dragon among people, and his food and clothing are the best. But he is also the poorest.
The Helian clan has an inseparable relationship with the royal family, and their status in the court is no less than that of the imperial relatives. He has studied with the children of the royal family since he was a child, and there are a few people in the world who are not from the royal family who can enjoy such treatment.
But since ancient times, the royal family has been the most ruthless, or rather, every deep mansion compound, behind the glory, carries an endless darkness.
His biological mother, a year after he was born, was relegated to the nunnery to lead the practice.
Just because of the ancestral training of the Helian family, go to the mother and keep the son. The person who succeeds the head of the Helian family must not have weaknesses or feelings.
Once a person has a weakness, no matter how strong he is, he will have a day to break through.
Although the Southern Jin Dynasty is strong, the other three countries are not weak, a country is stronger, stronger than a general, from the perspective of the royal family, such a decision is understandable.
But for a young son without a mother, it is undoubtedly cruel.
Helian Sheng grew up in such an environment, he is very rich, the net worth behind him is as rich as a small country, but he is also very poor, poor in no family affection, those ordinary children, can have the warmth of family affection, around him, there are few pitiful.
If you ask, why did he stay.
Maybe it's just because when I saw Mu Xiang for the first time in Fushou Building, I felt the warmth I hadn't seen in her for a long time.
Although she is spicy, she does not have the demeanor of a lady.
But because of this, she is also the most real and the most vivid.
Helian Sheng was silent in his thoughts, and when he came back to his senses, he was meeting Mu Xiang's slightly angry eyes.
"You're still in a daze, the water is ready, and if you don't wash it, it's going to be cold," Mu Xiang somehow saw Helian Sheng, and a surging fire rose in his heart. She estimated that she was afraid that she would not match him, and her aura was wrong.
"Uh, here we are," Helian Sheng said with a smile on his face. At that moment, Mu Xiang only felt that his eyes lit up, as if there was a light coming over. She shook her head and cursed the demon in her heart. Fortunately, she is determined enough and her mental age is old enough, otherwise she would have been really blinded by this guy.
Beauty is so true!
Mu Lang was also beckoning Helian Sheng to come over, "Big brother, let's move the bathtub to the old kitchen, it's not convenient to wash it here!" ”
Mu Xiang also urged: "Yes, yes, you two hurry up, that wooden basin is in Mu Lang's room, there is a sewer in the kitchen, you can drain the water, I'll go prepare a meal, you can eat after washing." ”
After saying that, Mu Xiang quickly turned around and went to the kitchen. If only Mu Lang took a bath, it would have been fine, but when I thought of the sudden emergence of a big man, he was also taking a bath at her house, and it was broad daylight. She didn't dare to imagine that if she let the people in the village know, she would probably have to fry the pot.
Helian Sheng stared at Mu Xiang's back in a hurry, and his sexy thin lips rippled into a handsome smile. Caiyun happened to look up at him, and immediately committed a nymphomaniac, his little face turned red, and he quickly lowered his head.
This man named Helian is really handsome, more beautiful than the big brother she has ever seen, even that Tang Mo can't compare. After getting along for a long time, I feel that Brother Helian has a good temper and a lot of energy, which is more powerful than Wang Xi.
How good it would be if such a person could marry the eldest sister.
Hearing the sound of water coming from the old house, Caiyun also blushed a little, and it was going to have lunch anyway, so he simply got up and went to the kitchen to fetch water and wash his hands.
The lunch meal was all on the table, a large casserole of boiled fish, and a large plate of cold coriander.
Although there are only two dishes, the utensils used by the farmhouse to decorate the dishes are definitely enough, unlike the dishes of those big restaurants in Fushoulou, which are all packed in delicate small plates, and the portions are not much, and the food is exquisite.
After Mu Xiang put the dishes on the table, he supported the edge of the table with one hand, looked at the two coarse porcelain vessels, and frowned. There were only three of them in the family before, and I didn't think it at the time, but now why do you look at these decorations, which are very eye-catching?
Helian Sheng took a bath, washed quickly, and when Mu Xiang stood in the hall in a daze, he washed it, put it on, and entered the hall.
While walking, he wore a belt and relaxed posture, and people who didn't know thought he was in his own home!
"Let's sit down and eat, Mu Lang, Caiyun, you guys come in too," Mu Xiang put away the excess affection, and kept telling herself that he was just an ordinary guest, and he didn't need special treatment, and she didn't beg him to stay, so he had to follow the rules of her family.
Helian Sheng nodded, and he was not polite, walked to the top, and sat down on the main seat, "This dish is very fragrant!" ”
Mu Xiang smiled proudly, "It's naturally fragrant, although these plates and pots are not as particular as Fushoulou, but when you eat and eat, you have to use a big bowl and a big plate, so that you can eat it tastefully and enjoy!" ”
He Liansheng looked up and looked at her triumphant little face, behind her was a piece of sunshine, and she was standing in front of the sun, her body was dyed with a layer of open aura, which was beautiful and warm.
Mu Xiang was still waiting for him to answer, but when he met their eyes, he saw that his eyes were staring at him without blinking, and Mu Xiang's face, which had always been indifferent, turned red again, and it was crimson.
"That...... Why do you have to live in my house? In order to hide his embarrassment, Mu Xiang had to bluntly divert the topic.
Helian Sheng looked at her gaze, did not turn away, and became deeper and deeper.
After a long while, he replied with an incomprehensible sentence, "Because it's home!" When he said this, there was a dark tone hidden under the cold tone.
"Huh?" Mu Xiang looked at him in wonder, obviously not expecting that it would be such an answer.
At this time, Mu Lang and Caiyun both came in, and when they saw Helian Sheng being familiar with him, they sat there upright, but they didn't feel awkward, and naturally sat down on the edge of the table.
Mu Xiang put away his thoughts, picked up the bowl and served them rice, and said apologetically to Helian Sheng: "There is no wine at home, you can eat more vegetables, the dishes cooked today are very spicy, and they can go to the cold, or I will make you a bowl of ginger soup in the afternoon." ”
He Liansheng's thick eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and quickly disappeared, holding the coarse porcelain bowl handed over by Mu Xiang, his black eyes glanced at her, and he shook his head and said, "No, it doesn't matter if you soak it for another five days." ”
He is a person who practices martial arts, and he has been fighting on the battlefield for many years, and soaking in cold water for a morning is nothing to him.
"Blind bragging, if you really get sick, it will be too late," Mu Xiang glared at him angrily, and put the prepared rice in front of Mu Lang and Caiyun.
When she said this, she didn't mean anything else, she simply couldn't get used to his publicity.
As long as they are people, they don't all grow up eating whole grains. No matter how good the body is, it is supported by long flesh and bones, and no matter how strong a person is, he can't guarantee that he will not get sick.
The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.
Helian Sheng's frowning eyebrows slowly dispersed.
She finally stopped talking to him in the tone of an outsider. The previous polite words, how to listen to it, how awkward. It's better to say this sentence, and the words of sarcasm are pleasing to the ear.
As soon as Mu Lang entered the hall, his eyes were directly attracted by the pot of boiled fish, the fragrance was fragrant, the spicy fragrance was even more hooked, and the white and tender fish meat was so attractive against the red soup.
Caiyun is naturally greedy, but in front of outsiders, the little girl's reserve naturally can't be lost, so she first clipped a chopstick to Mu Lang and told him to be careful of fish bones.
Helian Sheng was even more comfortable, and he really responded to Mu Xiang's words - fill the vegetables in a big bowl, eat meat in a big mouth, and don't treat himself as an outsider at all.
Because there is an outsider with strong electricity, the usually lively dinner table is also cold today.
In addition to the sound of chopping rice and the sound of bowls and chopsticks colliding, there is almost only Helian Sheng's strong sense of storage, which is particularly prominent.
Mu Xiang didn't know if Mu Lang and Caiyun felt the same way as her, anyway, she only knew that her heart was beating hard at this moment.
Helian Sheng sat across from her, and occasionally when she raised her eyes to pick up vegetables, her eyes would unexpectedly bump into his.
Not only will the eyes meet, but even the chopsticks will touch by chance.
This scene was seen by Caiyun, his big eyes swept over Mu Xiang and Helian Sheng, and he hurriedly smiled and diverted the topic, "Hehe, Brother Helian, my sister's cooking is delicious, even the restaurants in the city can't compare to it, the people in our village envy our family, saying that our family eats delicious food every day, and they only have gluttony." ”
Mu Lang ate the most cheerfully, after eating half a bowl of fish, he turned to attack the bean sprouts in the pot, feeling that the bean sprouts were crispy and tender in his mouth, and they were very delicious.
I will hear the words of the second sister, because my mouth is stuffed with bean sprouts, so I can only nod my head, and I make a little sound in my mouth-
