The wick burst and the red candle flickered slightly, suddenly elongating the shadow behind Zhao Xiaoba, which seemed to be an invisible urging, urging him to leave.

Zhao Xiaoba, who had been sitting quietly at the table for a long time, gradually understood that he couldn't wait for Zhu Xishi's relieved understanding, and his lips that had been closed for a long time couldn't stand the desolate parting, sighed heavily, and got up.

"I bought you your favorite porridge with preserved eggs and lean pork at the porridge shop, although I am in a bad mood, I can't lose myself like this. I'm gone, I won't bother you. ”

Song Yuzhi's face was slightly regretful, and he looked back at the bed inside, as if Zhu Xishi was still stubborn in his heart and refused to show his face to him. Unconsciously, Zhao Xiaoba frowned lightly, and walked out of Zhu Xishi's boudoir without hesitation.

The sound of the door closing was the last sound in Zhu Xishi's boudoir, and after that, the place fell into dead silence again. And it didn't take long for the room to slowly sound a squirming cry, intermittently, making the coldness here more and more desolate.

After crying in the stuffy quilt for an unknown amount of time, Zhu Xishi, who was suffocated, finally pulled the quilt on top of her head, and under the reflection of the candle flame that emitted a bright light, her tear-stained face reflected the glittering light.

The embarrassment of the injury comes first, and the reluctance of confusion comes later, and the two are opposed, breeding Zhu Xishi's empty heart at this time.

And the only thing that is clear in her mind is that she has no shame to keep Zhao Xiaoba, who has made up her mind

The moon sets and the sun rises, time does not stop because of Zhu Xi's sadness, and a round of red sun emerges half of its head on the eastern horizon, ready to drive the beginning of a new day.

Zhu Xishi, who was worried all night, still got up early as usual, and began to prepare for the opening of the buns, chopping wood, carrying water, lighting a fire, kneading dough, washing vegetables, chopping meat, mixing stuffing, making embryos, and basketing each process is still interlocking as in the past, but Zhu Xishi always feels that something is missing in it, and he is always panicking uneasily.

What is missing, it is better to say what people are missing. When she got used to Zhu Xi, who had one more person around to help, she was suddenly told that she was going back to the original again, and such a panic made her a little unconfident.

Habits, sometimes it's a terrible thing.

I don't know how long I've been distracted by the stove, but the fragrance of buns in the whole kitchen is already fragrant. In the past, the release of buns was undoubtedly the most gratifying time for Zhu Xishi, but now she can't experience the slightest happiness at all, and her heart is sinking like a stone thrown into a deep lake, only knowing how to sink hard.

"The fragrance is so strong, you can smell it from afar, why don't you react at all? Beware of oversteaming, the soup will not taste good when it dries. ”

As soon as Zhao Xiaoba, who stepped into the kitchen, hurriedly walked to the big steamer and panicked. After all, after following Zhu Xishi's side for so long, naturally he has learned a lot about this bun; It may be that he was in a hurry, and he went to serve the steamer without taking a wet handkerchief, and as soon as his hand touched the side of the steamer, he was immediately scalded back.

Looking at Zhao Xiaoba's frizzy appearance, Zhu Xishi, who was sitting by the stove in a daze, suddenly woke up, and hurriedly inserted it, grabbed a clean handkerchief and soaked it in cold water, and covered Zhao Xiaoba's hot hands.

"Is it hot? Do you have a brain, so hot can you use your hands directly? ”

"Aren't you afraid that the buns will be oversteamed? In a hurry, it's a bit of a concern. ”

Zhu Xishi didn't reply to him much, and quickly put on a wet handkerchief to take off the steamer, and Zhao Xiaoba, who was wearing a cool handkerchief, looked at the big white and soft buns, and suddenly showed a bright smile on his face.

"It's really fragrant, the buns in Taiyuan Shih Tzu Bun Shop are really a must, and you never get tired of eating them."

Zhao Xiaoba, who was already on an empty stomach, was tempted by this big bun that had just come out of the cage, and suddenly had an appetite; Regardless of any rules, he immediately put down the cold handkerchief at hand and grabbed a hot bun, and turned the big bun back and forth in the palm of his hand a little funny.

After fiddling with it for a while, the hot bun finally ate into Zhao Xiaoba's mouth, and a satisfied smile suddenly spread on his face.

"Your skills can compare to all the dim sum and imperial chefs in the palace."

Finally, when Zhao Xiaoba's noisy Zhu Xi was overlooked, he opened his mouth to respond to him: "How do you know that I am comparable to the imperial chef in the palace, have you eaten?!" ”

I was happy for a while, I didn't want to leak some things, and Zhao Xiaoba couldn't explain anything to her, so she said vaguely.

"I'm praising you, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat such delicious buns in the future."

Say a lot of mistakes, want to cover up the past with the wrong words, and don't want to cause greater embarrassment. For a while, Zhu Xi froze in place for a moment, and he couldn't see any kind of expression on his face, but he quickly regained his previous calm.

"I'm still afraid of my buns, I'm tired of your golden mouth."

"How come, Xi Shi big buns, Taiyuan City is well-known, some people can't eat it if they want to!"

Looking at Zhao Xiaoba, who was eating happily on the side, Zhu Xishi was also infected by his sincerity, with a long-lost smile on his face, and he also took out some of the strong posture of the past.

"Go aside, don't stand in my way, don't you always say that a gentleman cooks far away? Why did you take the initiative to come here so diligently. ”

"I just want to help you, nothing else. The gentleman is far away from cooking to avoid killing, but helping is another matter, otherwise you will have to nag me to eat idle dinner. ”

Solving the big bun in his hand with three times and dividing five by two, as if he had replenished his strength, Zhao Xiaoba picked up three large steamers from the side and asked Zhu Xishi's meaning.

"Can you take it out?"

For Zhao Xiaoba's initiative to help, although Zhu Xishi called him a lot, but now he is willing, and it is indeed a bit untouchable. When he made a decision, his mind inexplicably remembered what he said when he came to his room last night, and his heart couldn't help but start to be a little blocked.

I want to earn some money before I go, and it's a reasonable thing. Zhu Xishi didn't want to live so thoroughly, what could he do if he understood? Not a single qiē will change.

"Go ahead, be careful."

Zhu Xishi also put on a rare smile and responded to Zhao Xiaoba, who was waiting for instructions. Seeing that he was talking excitedly and carried the steamer out of the kitchen, the ease seemed to show that he was also relieved, and Zhu Xishi suddenly understood that he had also embarrassed him in the past few days.

Zhao Xiaoba was sent away, and the kitchen was quiet, giving Zhu Xishi more space to think. After reflection, she found that she was actually a willful person, and some things were too persistent.

It's rare to be confused, you should be confused and confused, and picking out those things that can't be reversed just adds to the damage, isn't it?
