- Aged sake does not feel the slightest bit ridiculous.

She could understand how heavy the self-blame Lin Shan felt for the outcome of Ye Ziqing's life. Although she was still a little puzzled, she always felt that the reason for her guilt was not as simple as a word of rejection.

Although Ye Ziqing finally changed her choice to marry the emperor because of his refusal, judging from the content and tone of the letter, she did not hold a grudge against him, and still trusted and relied on him.

Maybe there are some other reasons for Lin Shan's self-blame, although Chen Jiu can't know in detail now, she believes that she is from another angle's intuition. Of course, she also hopes that Lin Shan can choose a relationship as much as possible, but she also knows that it is not so easy for him to forget the shadow that has been lingering in his heart for more than ten years, and it is by no means as simple as forgetting one thing.

What one person can remember for another person is so small and cumbersome, more complicated than the rings carved on the trunk of a tree.

However, while Chen Jiu was surprised, he also had a hint of relief in his heart, no matter what, Lin Shan really had the action of trying to forget the bad memories of the past from today, starting from burning this letter.

If it were not for the letter as a physical carrier, and the support point between the illusory image in the mind and the distant past was removed, it would be easier to forget something.

"Brother Lin, I hope you have a happy life, even when you talk about Sister Ye, you can calm down, instead of stabbing your heart like just now." Chen Jiu took half a step back and squatted down beside Lin Shan. Looking at him at a very close distance, he said, word by word: "If it was before, I often think, how good it would be if you could forget her." But now my mind has changed, if I can't forget, I will remember, but I should remember it calmly, like remembering an old friend. ”

"Hmm......" Lin Shan pondered for a moment, then smiled slightly, and said, "What I talked to you about today was an old thing I didn't want to talk about at first. But I didn't expect to say so much. A lot of the sudden meaning is actually all gained from you. You're really ingenious, and it seems that I'll have to talk to you often in the future. ”

The thin letter in the hearth, which had been lost in the flames, finally burned through, and somehow a piece of ash still kept the shape of a letter stump and flew out of the hearth. Whirling and flying up to the kitchen roof. It hovered for a moment before falling gently.

It happened to fall on a strand of hair in front of the old wine's forehead.

Lin Shan didn't have time to think about it. Reaching out and picking up the thin piece of ash, he flicked his fingers away.

After bounced away the ash trail, his hand paused in mid-air for a moment. After that, it was not withdrawn, but returned to the forehead of the aged wine.

Chen Jiu was slightly stunned, and then she soon found that the look in the eyes of the man she admired seemed to have changed, some like a windless lake, calm enough to reflect her own shadow, and some like melted grease, she was deeply trapped in it but didn't want to extricate herself.

Lin Shan caressed the long silky hair of the woman in front of him, and his mind was also extremely supple at this moment, he read a kind of expectation and a little apprehension in the woman's eyes, and his heart suddenly throbbed, bowed his head slightly, and gently knocked down his lips.

The warm touch, like a little spark, ignited the heart.

When he gently kissed the smooth piece of her forehead, he could clearly see her eyes flickering, and her eyelashes seemed to have a trace of aura, which was quite moving. And when he let go of the hand that covered her long satin hair, he saw that there were two more rouges on her face...... It was as if for the first time his heart was beating faster for her beauty.

At this time, the heart of the aged wine beats faster.

Obviously, she was just squatting beside him, but it seemed that she had just come back from running dozens of miles outside, in addition to her heart beating faster and her breathing was slightly short, she also felt that her face was on fire.

"Is it red?" Chen Jiu covered his face, revealing only a pair of eyes shining between his split fingers, looking at Lin Shan.

Lin Shan said without thinking: "It's red." ”

"I ...... I'm going to be laughed to death by others......" Chen Jiu covered his face tighter, "Who has ever seen a thirty-year-old woman blush?" ”

Lin Shan stretched out his finger and pointed at himself, and said with a smile: "I've seen it." ”

Chen Jiu didn't say anything more, but ran out with his face covered, and before he could stand up straight, he ran out, looking like a rabbit whose tail had been pulled.

Lin Shan didn't have time to think about it, he stood up and called out the door.

He didn't hear the echo, thinking that she had run away, but he didn't expect that it wouldn't be long before she ran back again.

Chen Jiu stared at Lin Shan and asked, "What do you call me for?" ”

She finally let go of the hand that was covering her face, but her face was still a touching red.

Lin Shan shook his head slightly, and after being stunned for a moment, he stretched out his hand and pointed to a large pot of porridge churning hot on the stove, and said with some embarrassment: "This...... How do you boil water after it is boiling? ”

"Just keep cooking." Chen Jiu couldn't help laughing, walked to the stove, picked up the big iron spoon for scooping rice, and stirred it into the pot with white rice soup a few times, and then covered the pot, leaving a narrow slit to prevent the soup from boiling, and then she turned her face, looked at Lin Shan and said: "Cooking porridge is one of the easiest skills to learn in cooking, that is, it is always burning under the stove, and paying attention to stirring in the pot, just learning this trick is enough to starve people." ”

"I see." Lin Shan sat back in front of the stove and continued to light the fire, then said with a smile: "Then you are responsible for stirring it above, and I will be responsible for burning it below." ”

Chen Jiu walked over slowly, squatted beside Lin Shan, looked at him and said, "Why aren't you stirring up on top and burning below?" ”

As soon as she said this, her cheeks, which had only slightly "cooled down", "burned" again. Unconsciously talking about the question of who is up and who is down, although on the surface it is talking about cooking on the fire, in this kitchen room where a certain subtle atmosphere has not yet dissipated, in front of the red and shining fire of the stove, it is easy to detonate a new round of burning.

Lin Shan turned his face back and looked at Chen Jiu's somewhat strange eyes, and after a moment, a hint of brilliance rose in his eyes.

"Brother Lin......"

Just when the two people, whose eyes were a little glued together, were about to spark with each other, Chen Jiu suddenly spoke. The tone is not very tender.

"Huh?" Lin Shan's eyes moved slightly.

"Look...... Chen Jiu pointed a little to the ground, "...... Your seal has fallen out. ”

Lin Shan subconsciously looked down.

There was nothing left on the ground.

However, before he could react, he might have been subjected to some kind of calculation, and then he felt his lips touch a soft, slightly damp, faint smell of wine that almost swept him into the deep pool, but his body suddenly became as light as a leaf riding the wind, spinning in the clouds.

At the moment when Lin Shan lowered his head slightly, Chen Jiu, who was squatting beside him, suddenly raised his face, she just wanted to peck it lightly and pick a piece gently. But I didn't expect to touch it. She couldn't help but immerse herself in it, and she tossed and grinded it unwillingly.

It wasn't until she felt a little suffocated and realized that she had plundered enough that she let go of him. Don't wait for him to come to his senses. She had stood up. Like a thief woman who has just succeeded. Suddenly fled into the half-dark evening night outside the kitchen.

She was a little worried about whether Lin Shan would blame her for being too proactive.

She was also a little happy afraid, afraid that Lin Shan would catch her back and plunder her again. She didn't know if it turned out to be like that. Will she not only blush like rouge, but also burn and nosebleed.

If a woman has a nosebleed because she is infatuated with a man, if this appearance spreads, her face will be really lost.

-- Even if you lose face in this way, you will be happy.

Lin Shan stood at the door, looking a little stunned in the direction of Chen Jiu's escape, and it wasn't until a moment later that he came back to his senses.

was actually used by a woman?

Lin Shan raised his hand and touched his lips, which seemed to be warm and soft with her.

Although I lost my grace a little just now, it felt ...... Actually, it's quite intoxicating......

Lin Shanwu smiled to himself, not knowing that at this time, a trace of blood red had also appeared on his face, although it was extremely faint, but it was quite conspicuous on his originally slightly pale face.

This is the first time that Chen Jiu has used strong against Lin Shan, and it is also the first time that Lin Shan has been used by a woman.

Even Ye Ziqing, many years ago, dared to throw himself into his arms and climbed on his back, but he would not use this throbbing way to rob away his tenderness.

I don't know how long he stood like this before Lin Shan came back to his senses and realized that there was still a task in the kitchen. He was about to follow the example of Chen Jiu just now, and stirred the porridge pot twice with the iron spoon that was used to scoop rice, but as soon as he turned around, he found that the fire in the stove had been extinguished again.

Using paper as firewood, although there is a reason for it, there is no need to pity the price of paper, but after all, it can't compare to the heat of firewood. Although the paper catches fire quickly, it has no stamina, and it burns out quickly and extinguishes quickly.

Lin Shan didn't know so much, he only knew that cooking was not only troublesome, but he didn't seem to have the talent to learn, and he had failed many times over the years, so he didn't hesitate to call someone to help.

Soon two guards walked in, and both of them saw the strangeness on Lin Shan's face, but because the one on the left was a little faster, he couldn't help but say curiously: "My lord, why is your face a little strange?" ”

"Really?" Lin Shan hesitated for a moment, and didn't ask the guard what the strange method was, but turned to say: "Your eyesight is good, and your eyes are burning, so you can go out first." ”

The guard was stunned, a little unclear, but vaguely aware that he seemed to have said something wrong, and withdrew in a daze.

The guard, who didn't speak, watched this qiē, but at this time he understood a little. He had been staying in the vicinity, and when Chen Jiu ran out just now, he had seen it, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised by the picture he had silently deduced.

The more silent guard sat down in front of the stove, and kept throwing books into the stove as Lin Shan commanded, and he pressed his head very low, not afraid of being smoked by the smoke wafting from the stove, but laughing.

But after only enduring it for a while, the guard couldn't bear it anymore, because the fire was suddenly fierce and high, and the porridge in the iron pot on the stove boiled so much that the rice soup overflowed.

When Lin Shan lifted the lid of the pot, the guard glanced at the pot, and couldn't help but worry and said, "This rice is too late to be harvested, and it can't be made into rice, so I can only drink porridge tonight." ”

These guards in the residence have to undergo two rounds of physical training every day, and the physical consumption is large. They are indeed not accustomed to drinking the gruel with water and rice, and it is not without reason.

Lin Shan had only heard the same words from Chen Jiu once, so he didn't think there was anything strange about the result of cooking rice into porridge. He just lifted the lid of the pot and felt that the bubbles on the porridge noodles were a little strange, and the white mist and water vapor also smelled a little burnt.

After hesitating for a moment, he remembered what Chen Jiu had just said. Stir in the pan from time to time. Although these words were ambiguous in the atmosphere that filled the room just now. But I have to say that this is indeed an important note for cooking porridge.

When Lin Shan took the big iron spoon and stirred it into the pot, he found that although there was rice soup on top of the porridge, the rice under the rice soup was about to be slowly boiled into a cake by the flickering fire. When he shoveled down with another spoon, he saw a slightly charred ...... Pot ......

Wait for him to stir it up a few more times. This pot of porridge is completely dry and unable to move.

Lin Shan did not hesitate and immediately walked to the water tank. Scoop up a full scoop of water and pour it into the slightly boiling porridge pot. He was always prepared. Be decisive. The inside of the pot was indeed "quiet", and there was a soup that could be used to cook rice grains, so that the layer at the bottom of the pot would continue to increase.

The guards who were sitting under the stove to add fuel to the fire couldn't help but squint.

Add cold water directly to the boiling porridge. This is still a pot of porridge with burnt rice, and my God, even a layman knows how strange this pot of porridge will be.

Throwing the water scoop back on the lid of the water tank, Lin Shan saw the strange expression on the guard's face on one side, and said casually, "Is there anything strange?" The old wine was originally intended to be cooked, but later it was cooked into porridge and rice by me, a novice who burned the fire, and the water was naturally not enough, so it was right to add a little. ”

The waiter was afraid that the amazing adult in front of him would make some new tricks of the burnt rice porridge, so he only dared to cling to and answer: "Yes, yes." ”

"Well......" Lin Shan nodded with basic satisfaction, his eyes flickered, and he saw the handkerchief that Chen Jiu had accidentally left just now, he quickly picked up the handkerchief and held it in his palm, and then said to the guard: "I'll go out first, your wine sister said that cooking porridge is a very simple thing, about ...... You boil the porridge in the pot one more time and it's ready to eat. ”

"Yes, yes." After listening to Lin Shan's words, the guard almost couldn't help but speak in a hurried tone, but he finally reluctantly held back and said in a calm tone as much as possible: "If your lord has something to do, you can rest assured that you can leave it to your subordinates to take care of." ”

"Good." Lin Shan didn't say anything more, tied his hands behind his back, and finally went out.

The guard got up and took a few steps, and when he withdrew his gaze and turned to look at the stove, his face obviously collapsed, and he couldn't smile bitterly.

The slightly burnt smell wafting from the kitchen was already telling him with the most honest testimony that the strange smell of the porridge had been frozen.

――

His cheeks flew like a flower, and he lowered his head and smiled and ran into his room, closed the door tightly, and never came out for a long time.

Sitting in front of the dressing mirror, she touched her cheeks that were as warm as usual, but they seemed to be baked on the fire, and looked at herself in the mirror like a clumsy girl who was learning to grind fat, accidentally smeared too many bright colors on her face, but she couldn't wipe it off.

But she was not anxious at all, and she was only full of joy at this time.

can rob his tenderness, even if he only does it this time in this life, it will not be in vain for so many years of hard work and loneliness.

In fact...... It doesn't seem too difficult......

Do you want to give it another try?

Chen Jiu's face burned again.

got up and left the dresser, walked to the table next to the side and sat down, pouring cup after cup of herbal tea from the teapot, and the heat on her heart and face cooled down slightly.

Just now her heart was so excited that she almost wanted to climb the mountain to announce her victory to Guangye, but after all, she was not fifteen or sixteen years old, and she chose to store the feeling of joy and happiness more carefully than to want everyone to know about it, so that it could be tasted for a long time.

After sitting quietly at the table for an unknown amount of time, Chen Jiu felt that the heat on his face had returned to normal, and when he walked back to the dressing mirror to take a look, he saw that the two strange rouge colors had finally faded a lot. She breathed a sigh of relief, she hadn't really been a woman yet, so she still had to go out to meet people tonight.

Don't know what's going on in the kitchen? Almost all of the young people in the house did not want to drink porridge, and it was better to go back and get them some appetizers.

Chen Jiu didn't know that she was sitting in the room. It's just that after sitting for half an hour, some kind of bad situation on the other side of the kitchen room is no longer able to recover.

At the same time, she didn't know that although in her opinion, the red tide on her face had receded a lot, but in the eyes of others, she was still a little unusually delicate and moving at this time today, as if it was rare to decorate herself with a delicate face.

After following Lin Shan to this remote place three years ago, the old wine has always been plain. In addition to the fact that Lin Shan, who was seriously injured and weak at the beginning, couldn't smell the smell of fat powder, later Chen Jiu himself became accustomed to this simple but real way of life.

Most of the women in the town are plain. Living in such an environment. If you pay too much attention to the smear on the skin, it will be a little different. In addition, I often have to cook, and I have to go into the fermentation room of the winery with a high temperature environment. Wearing heavy makeup on your face is actually a burden.

But once the woman who is used to it. As soon as you put on your makeup. It will be very conspicuous.

Although Chen Jiu didn't really smear rouge on her face, the smear that her originally fair cheeks revealed from the inside out would be brighter than rouge. It is also more difficult to completely remove traces.

The lips are gentle and comfortable, do you know what you want to do with a gentleman?

――

Chen Jiu stood up with her sleeves clutched, and finally walked out of her room, but she hadn't gone a few steps before she ran into an oncoming maid. At this time, the night outside had gradually deepened, but the maid carrying the small lantern on the road still saw the strangeness on Chen Jiu's face at a glance, and immediately said "Huh".

Although Lin Shan didn't officially announce anything, Chen Jiu was actually the chief steward of all the maids in the residence, and even those guards of Lin Shan had to respect her for three points. But in fact, Chen Jiu is not a person who often shows his power, which is somewhat similar to Lin Shan, so while these maids respect her, they probably have the temperament to say anything.

But today the situation is clearly somewhat different.

Seeing the maidservant girl say "huh", Chen Jiu's face tensed slightly.

But the maid seemed to ignore this, and her attention was still on the strange complexion of Chen Jiu's face, and after a puzzled moment, she said slowly: "Sister Jiu, did you put on makeup today?" Although it looks a little strange at first, you will find that Sister Jiu is a beauty, and after the powder makeup is sparse, she is even more beautiful, and even the little girl I am almost fascinated! ”

There is indeed some flattery in the words of this servant, but it is undeniable that most of what is said is the truth. However, at this time, whether in the face of flattery or sincerity, Chen Jiu expressed his resistance.

In short, no one is allowed to see her red-faced.

She didn't know why her shy energy suddenly rose so high.

Obviously she robbed him?

Shouldn't he be the one who is embarrassed? You should come up with the winner's ...... That's it...... Be ashamed!

Looking at the big sister who clenched her sleeves tightly, didn't say a word, and seemed to be still stunned, she walked away quickly with a small broken step, and the little maid with the lantern stood in place and was stunned, and only after a long time did she pout slightly and muttered: "I didn't say anything wrong, right?" ”

――

Walking to the position near the kitchen, Chen Jiu's pace slowed down unconsciously, but his heartbeat unconsciously increased again.

But it didn't take long for her to calm down again, for she did not see the man who tugged at her heartstrings as she had imagined, standing at the door, waiting for her to come back so that she could inflict some kind of punishment, but she was only surprised to see seven young guards squatting in a row at the door of the little stove, each holding a bowl in his hand.

Although this picture is not so shabby that she thinks of beggars on the street, it is also really a bit face-damaging, where are these guards squatting at the door with bowls still have a majestic aura, as if they are a group of prisoners who have been taken out of the prison by indifferent jailers to "let the wind go".

It is not difficult to guess that the "jailer" is played by Lin Shan.

As soon as the seven dejected-looking guards saw Chen Jiu coming, they all quickly stood up, as if a lost person had found a star in the dark night, or as if a drowning person had seen a wooden plank floating on the water from a distance.

Seeing the seven people approaching together, Chen Jiu immediately paused and said in surprise: "What's wrong with you?" ”

"Sister Jiu, your boss is finally here......" one of the guards wailed before he could explain, "Hurry up and use a magic spell to save us!" ”

"Don't zoom in on people in the kitchen anymore." The other guard, who spoke next, was calmer, but there was a clear sense of depth in his eyes.

"For the first time in my life...... Hmm......" The third squire hesitated slightly, as if picking and choosing the adjectives he thought were appropriate. “…… This should not be enough to be called a prison meal, but more like pig food......"

Although the voices of the people in front of him were rising and falling, Chen Jiu had roughly understood what they were eager to express.

However, she can only express regret about this matter, the rice has become porridge, and it is futile to try to change anything.

Chen Jiu pondered and said, "I can only stir-fry a few dishes for you to whet your appetite." After saying this, Chen Jiu picked Jiang Chao out of the crowd with his eyes, walked towards the kitchen together, and asked casually: "Why are you a few of you guilty, and what about the others?" ”

"Summoned, the closest of us are of course the fastest. How do you know that there is such a thing on the wheel? "Jiang Chao is the one who has been with Lin Shan's side the longest among these guards. But when he thought of what happened to him and his other brothers just now, he couldn't help but show a sense of anger on his face.

Chen Jiu couldn't help but want to laugh, and let Lin Shan go to the kitchen, and it was already lucky that he didn't cause a disaster.

Astringent grooming. Chen Jiu asked again, "But he left first?" ”

Jiang Chao's eyes moved slightly. He asked, "Didn't he come to look for you?" ”

The wine has walked to the stove. Just as she was about to reach out and lift the lid of the pot, ready to watch the "miserable situation" in the iron pot, she froze her hand again when she heard the words. Sideways said, "I didn't see him." Of course, she wouldn't say why she had locked herself in the house.

Jiang Chao was slightly surprised in his heart, and before he could say anything more, he and Chen Jiu both heard the familiar voice coming from outside.

Lin Shan, who boiled a pot of pig food by his subordinates, came back at some point, maybe he had the ability to deify, and he heard his subordinates talking bad about him from afar, so he had to come back and give a little lecture.

"When you get used to eating and drinking spicy food, you forget the taste of chaff? If you are moved from the rear to the front, will you be wiped out by cutting off your food? Lin Shan's tone of voice was rarely full of strong commanding tones, "Not even half a drop of porridge juice is left!" Otherwise, you'll all go back to Kyoto in a few days! ”

If outsiders listen to this, they will definitely find it very strange.

If you return to Kyoto, a single copper coin can exert its maximum and abundant purchasing power. Compared to this remote town, Kyoto is a fairyland on earth, with all kinds of supplies. With the actual capital accumulated by these few guards who are now looking extremely pitiful, it can be afforded for several years to eat and drink spicy food in the imperial city, and to serve chicken, duck and fish meat in a basin.

Isn't it impossible to send them back to Kyoto?

Why does Lin Shan's tone seem to have a sense of punishment in it?

However, no matter whether anyone at the scene didn't understand these words at this time, at least someone quickly proved how weighty Lin Shan's punishment was with his actions.

"My lord, my subordinates suddenly miss the taste of chaff cakes, can I exchange this bowl of porridge with you?" One of the guards couldn't help but ask, looking apprehensive.

"Where can I go to find chaff for you now?" Lin Shan's tone was obviously not good, "Remember, picking your mouth is your big taboo. ”

No one dared to raise their voices for any chance of relief, and a slight sound of sluping porridge gradually came from outside the house.

Lin Shan walked into the stove house, as if he was about to open the cupboard to get the bowl, and when he saw that Chen Jiu was also in the kitchen room, he was slightly stunned, and then his face softened, and he said with a smile: "You are also here, by the way, try my craft." ”

Jiang Chao turned his head sideways and couldn't help but tug at the corners of his mouth.

Chen Jiu lifted the lid of the pot, and then saw the substance in the pot that could not be described in beautiful words, even if she did not taste it herself, it was not difficult for her to imagine what kind of "wonderful" taste that substance had.

There was a faint acacia moisture wafting beside her, Chen Jiu subconsciously looked sideways, and then she noticed that the reason why Lin Shan didn't go to her after leaving the kitchen just now turned out to be going to the bathing room. The robe on his body, which was stained with the smoke of wood and the smell of blood, had been replaced, and at this time it was a green cloth robe of a similar color, no wonder she didn't see it when he first walked in.

Lin Shan's hair was loosely tucked behind his head, and it wasn't until he approached Chen Jiu's side that Chen Jiu could see a strand of wet hair hanging down from the corner of his forehead, and water droplets were still dripping on his tail.

"Why do you wash your hair at night? Ming'er should have a headache again. Chen Jiu put down the lid of the pot, reached into his sleeve, and wanted to take out a handkerchief to wipe his hair, but he was empty, and her face couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Lin Shan noticed her move and said with a smile, "I picked up your handkerchief." ”

It would have been a very ordinary sentence, but somehow. At this time, Chen Jiu looked at the subtle changes in the expression on Lin Shan's face, and after listening to him say this, his cheeks unconsciously warmed up slightly.

The kitchen space is limited, and the voice of a person can quickly spread to every corner, and even the tone of the words is not compromised at all. Jiang Chao, who was standing on the side, had already realized that there was something wrong with the atmosphere in the house, and slowly withdrew lightly.

Just now, when he was listening to the complaints of the subordinates who were holding bowls, he also heard some things about what happened between Lin Shan and Chen Jiu in the kitchen.

Seeing Jiang Chao consciously retreating, Lin Shan smiled secretly in his heart, let him go, and then turned his eyes to look at Chen Jiu and said, "The letter I just received." There is a batch of military funds in the Beida Battalion that can be accepted. I'm going to go there tomorrow. Originally, I was going to dye it a few days late, but it was really inappropriate for me to go to Beidaying like this, so I have to work hard for you tonight, and I will be busy overnight. ”

Lin Shan's burn wounds have not yet fully healed. There have been gray hair increase lesions caused by long-term overdose. This was a result that his attending pharmacist, Liao Shi, had long anticipated. Therefore, remedial preparations have been made for a long time.

This preparation is not a treatment established from within, but an outward modification, a very strange practice - dyeing hair.

The hair dye pigments formulated by Liao Shi are certainly not the same as ink. This pigment does not have the slightest unusual smell except for the color of ink. When using, first use the paste pigment to rub and dye the wet hair for an hour, and then use another potion to wet it, and pause for another hour, after which the color of the pigment will stay on the hair more firmly and will not fade due to water and rain.

Modifying the abnormalities in hair color was Lin Shan's request three years ago after listening to Liao Shi's pre-filing for treatment. If he let his old unit know that he had suffered such a severe physical debacle because of serious injuries, it would probably affect the morale of all units of the army to cooperate with the action.

Liao Shi is also a real genius in the pharmaceutical industry, he was able to learn from the method of applying gouache to cover up imperfections, and finally came up with such a strategy, and he really formulated this pigment.

Although this slightly oily pigment cannot replace the writing ability of ink, if it is impregnated in hair, it is definitely dozens of times stronger than the color-fixing ability of ink. When the first bottle of hair dye pigment came out, Lin Shan took the tail of a white horse to make a real yàn, so the white horse wagged its strange black tail for half a year, and the color gradually faded.

Calculating the time, this is the third time that Chen Jiu has helped Lin Shan dye his hair.

Although the black paint on his hair had not completely faded, when Chen Jiu carefully parted his hair with a comb, he could clearly see that the inch of new growth at the root of his hair was several times longer than when she first dyed his hair.

"There's more gray hair." Chen Jiu sighed worriedly, "Those hair nourishing foods built by the old pharmacist don't seem to have any effect. ”

"Hmm...... The day when everyone had gray hair, I was just one step ahead. Lin Shan said lightly, as if he didn't care much about these appearances. But he only paused for a moment, and then suddenly asked again: "If my hair is all white and my face is wrinkled, will you be disgusted?" ”

Chen Jiu's hand holding the comb froze slightly, although the answer in her heart was already coming out, she didn't answer immediately verbally. After a short silence, she asked, "Then will you hate me?" ”

――――

After that day, Chen Jiu left Lin Shan's residence and returned to her rented house in this northland town, where she rested and recuperated for a few days. In fact, her body was not injured in the slightest, and most of what happened that day was just an illusion, just because the incident happened suddenly, although the truth was revealed afterwards, it still caused some impact damage to her mood.

In the past few days of staying in his own house, the old wine has not even taken care of the winery, and the wine storage is almost sold out. On the fourth day, a guy from the winery couldn't help but come to Chenjiu's private house to ask for instructions, and the reply he got surprised the guy that he was going to close the shop for a few more days, and he didn't give a clear date for the reopening.

It takes a cycle to make wine, but in the past few days, because Lin Shan's side has been a trivial matter, the old wine on the winery side has been negligent in management, and the fixed cycle has been interrupted, and the reserves of the small winery are limited, and it is inevitable that the wine will be sold out.

If you are a restaurant that concentrates on business, in the face of the common problem that small workshops are prone to disconnection in the industrial chain, you can use this as the basis for the best-selling liquor, either to expand the industrial area, increase production and supply demand, or to raise the value of the product, both ways to deal with the problem are not very problematic. Scarcity is expensive, the Chen family's wine can't make that taste, and this wine has been sold in the town for nearly a year, and the reputation is good.

However, the aged wine did not do this.

In fact, she did not completely want to settle in this small town in the Northland, the winery has been open for almost a year, and the title deed is still leased, not actually purchased. Regarding the Chen family's secret recipe for winemaking, she has never taught the guys in the winery, so the winery will be closed so quickly without her care.

She told Lin Shan that she didn't want to go back to Kyoto, to be precise, she actually saw that Lin Shan would not go back. She was just determined to follow him, knowing that she would definitely not be able to follow Xichuan, so she had to stay in this small town in the Northland, and maybe there would be a chance to see him back again.

But a few days ago, while persuading her to return to Kyoto, Lin Shan vaguely told her that he would probably not come back even here, and her mood suddenly collapsed. In the past, if she had any worries, she could get rid of them in the busy atmosphere of the wine shop.

The old pharmacist has a saying that she agrees with very much: some people's heart diseases are idle. Let this kind of person who sighs every day and sighs every day go out to bask in the sun, or run, and then go down to the field to rake the ground for a day, come back tired and urinated, take a hot bath and sleep well, and the depression and melancholy in my heart will naturally be gone.
