Chapter 19: The Return of the King
The autumn moon is cool and acacia is in the bones, looking through Zhu Qiao and asking the wind to send a letter. I didn't know the dream all night, and the corners of my eyes were full of sorrow and longing for the king's return.
"Miss, it's autumn now. It's getting colder, you have to take care of your body! If you get into the cold wind, you catch a cold and hurt your body. Your Highness will blame the slaves. Ke'er draped a cloak embroidered with purple lotus flowers and gold trim on Su Ruoxi's shoulders.
Su Ruoxi's slender hand gently pinched the cloak and sat by the lake, looking at the pairs of daughters playing with each other: "Ke'er." I have heard that the war in the north has ended, and today the husband can return with the award. It's been a long time, why hasn't my husband returned home? ”
"Possibly. . . It may be that His Highness has just received the award and is just a little busy. Ke'er put her hand to her lips and tilted her head to think for a long time.
"Perhaps. This husband is too tired. Su Ruoxi frowned, then lifted her skirt, stood on tiptoe, and ran out of the garden on the cobblestone by the lake.
"Alas! Miss! Be careful not to fall into the lake. Ke'er was so frightened that she hurriedly chased after Su Ruoxi, for fear that she would make a mistake.
The cloak on Su Ruoxi's shoulders slid into the lake as she ran, causing ripples. A falling flower then fell on top of the cloak, causing the fish to swim back and forth.
"Little, miss. What are you doing! Ke'er clutched her stomach and panted.
I saw Su Ruoxi roll up his sleeves, revealing his arms as white as lotus roots, and boiled He Shou Wu chicken soup.
"Miss, just leave this matter to your subordinates." Kerr persuaded from the side.
"Oops! Ke'er, I want to make this soup for my husband to drink, my husband is very tired of fighting for the country. How can I, a concubine, not care?! Kerr, come and get me some water! Su Ruoxi beckoned Ke'er to help while she was busy.
"But Miss!" Kerr pouted and slapped a scoop of water from the tank.
"You! I don't know how to drop! Su Ruoxi nodded Ke'er's head and was busy with a happy smile.
After arranging Ou Xizi, Chu Yi returned home slowly.
Chu Yi walked around the mansion and didn't see Su Ruoxi, so he called his subordinates and asked, "Where is Su'er?" ”
"Back to His Highness's words. Mrs. Su was cooking soup in the kitchen. ”
"Well, let's go down!" Chu Yi waved his hand and walked to the kitchen.
Bursts of white smoke rose from the kitchen, and a faint smell of meat accompanied this cool autumn, giving people an indescribable comfort.
Chu Yi walked into the kitchen silently, looked at Su Ruoxi, who was sweating, squatting on the ground without any image, and struggling to fan the fire with a fan.
Chu Yi stepped forward, put his arms around Su Ruoxi's thin waist, and hugged it into his arms.
Su Ruoxi was stunned by this sudden move. But when he saw that it was Chu Yi, his face instantly turned red.
"What are you doing here?" There was a hint of tenderness in Chu Yi's majestic words.
Su Ruoxi nodded slightly: "Knowing that my husband is returning with glory today, I specially boiled soup to relieve my husband's fatigue." ”
Chu Yi carefully brushed the fine sweat from Su Ruoxi's forehead: "I'm blessed." I remember you couldn't cook. ”
"Your Highness, after you left, Miss began to learn to cook, and her hands were full of injuries." Kerr suddenly interjected.
"Oh?" Chu Yi shook Su Ruoxi's weak and boneless little hand: "You will not be allowed to do this in the future!" ”
Su Ruoxi was a little dizzy by Chu Yi's domineering and gentleness.
When Su Ruoxi was led out of the house by Chu Yi, she remembered that the heat had not yet been boiled. wanted to break free of Chu Yi's hand and go back to the kitchen: "Let go of me, my soup hasn't boiled yet."
Chu Yi held her hand tightly and didn't let go, Su Ruoxi's head twitched at Chu Yi's hand, and opened her red cherry mouth and bit it fiercely.
Chu Yi, who was in pain, immediately let go of his hand, and looked at Su Ruoxi with a look of obsessiveness and ran back to the kitchen with her skirt.
Su Ruoxi, who was squatting on the ground and continued to fan the wind, muttered, "I seem to have done something wrong?" But I can't remember! Don't worry about it for now, it's important to boil it, hehe. ”
At dinner, Su Ruoxi hid like a child who made a mistake, secretly looking at the tooth marks on Chu Yi's hands that had not disappeared. But when he saw Chu Yi picking up her hard-working hot, he opened his eyes excitedly and stared at Chu Yi's face tightly.
Chu Yi smiled at the corner of his mouth and drank all the iron: "It tastes good, it is fragrant in the throat, not greasy or oily!" ”
"Hey!" Su Ruoxi blinked happily.
"The soup is good. But if you make a mistake, you will be punished! Otherwise, you won't have a family. Chu Yi put down the dishes and chopsticks and said in a deep voice.
Su Ruoxi fell from happiness to trough in an instant, and said with a slander in her heart: "Didn't you just accidentally take a bite?!" ”
Chu Yi looked at Su Ruoxi, who had her little head down, and got up directly to pick her up.
Su Ruoxi was so frightened that she hurriedly hugged Chu Yi's neck: "What are you doing?" ”
"Take you to the room to be punished!" Chu Yi said with a wicked smile.
Su Ruoxi's face suddenly turned red, and her body couldn't help but heat up.
lingered overnight, leaving a mark under the mouth. The white jade is clear, soft and firm. A warbler sings, and the evening breeze is like warmth.
