Chapter 0324 - Praise
Chang'an, a place that has been absent for a long time, Fang Jue stopped his horse at the city gate tower, stared at the two words at the head of the city for a long time, and he finally came back.
The first thing Fang Jue did when he returned to Chang'an was not to go to the palace, but to his own courtyard, when he knew that he was not there, Qian Kai would occasionally send someone to clean it.
Fang Jue approached his courtyard, the courtyard door was not locked, and Fang Jue pushed the door in.
The yard was spotlessly cleaned, as if it were inhabited.
"Is that so?"
Fang Jue heard a voice from the kitchen on the side of the courtyard.
"Well, it smells good."
Another woman's voice came, and Fang Jue knew who was inside.
Just when Fang Jue was hesitating, Hongshan came out of the kitchen with a stack of snacks, which should be ready to be served.
When Hongshan saw Fang Jue, she stared at her big eyes, even Hongshan, who had always been serious and calm, had a somewhat complicated expression and was even more excited.
"Aunt, aunt, you..."
Hongshan stammered a little, and she seemed a little incoherent.
Hongshan was about to go back to inform the people in the kitchen, but was stopped by Xiao Yue on the side. Hongshan naturally understood what Xiao Yue meant, so she didn't go in, but gave the way to Fang Jue.
Fang Jue rarely went into the kitchen, to be exact, he hadn't entered the kitchen here.
"County Lord, you are so powerful, you learned it so quickly."
Li'er stood aside and watched Qiao Xiaoyue cook.
"Li'er, you still call me the county lord, I am no longer the county lord."
Qiao Xiaoyue said while stir-frying, looking at this skillful posture, she should have been practicing for a while.
Li'er is used to being called the county lord Qiao Xiaoyue, but she doesn't know how to call it, call it young lady, or what?
"Oops, there's no fire, I'll fill it up a little."
Li'er was still so active, screaming and walking behind the stove, taking a few sticks of firewood and putting them inside.
The weather was too hot, and the kitchen was even hotter, and Li'er was already sweating, so she wiped her sweat with her hand, but she had her face spent.
Qiao Xiaoyue watched Li'er become a big cat, and laughed a little. Today's Qiao Xiaoyue has lost the dignified and reserved county lord, and laughs unabashedly, but it feels very natural and real.
Fang Jue didn't expect that the dignified Heavenly Dynasty County Lord would actually go to the kitchen. Fang Jue was a little surprised, what happened in Chang'an in the days he left.
But just as Li'er got up, Li'er's eyes touched a figure, and the familiar outline made her feel as if she was frozen, and she didn't even care if Qiao Xiaoyue was laughing at herself.
"Oh, the fire is too big, Li'er, the fire is smaller. What happened to you? ”
Qiao Xiaoyue was also like a pity, screaming, but found that pity'er was looking behind her blankly.
Qiao Xiaoyue also felt strange, what was behind her that could make Li'er look like this, as if she was laughing and crying.
When Qiao Xiaoyue turned her head to look, she was also surprised by what she saw in front of her.
The shovel in his hand also fell to the ground, and his eyes looked at the person in front of him like that of a child.
"Young Master, you're finally back."
Only then did Li'er react and ran to Fang Jue, but accidentally stepped on a round branch, and pounced on Fang Jue's side.
Fang Jue hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Li'er, and Li'er was spared.
"I haven't seen you for a few months, but you're fat, I heard that you're sick, I'm still worried, it turns out to be superfluous."
Fang Jue said with a smile, and then pinched Li'er's face. Unexpectedly, after not seeing each other for a few months, Li'er became more and more mature, making Fang Jue a little bad at teasing the little girl in front of her anymore.
Qiao Xiaoyue also looked at Fang Jue with tears in her eyes, seeing that Fang Jue came back safely, she felt that everything was worth it, and it was not too late.
Fang Jue also found Qiao Xiaoyue's demeanor, and they were a little embarrassed to each other, anyway, Qiao Xiaoyue was also the wife that Fang Jue was marrying, but he had heard that Qiao Xiaoyue was deprived of the title of county lord because of himself, but he wouldn't appear here.
"What a mess."
Fang Jue sniffed the smell and made an expression, as if he wanted to resolve this embarrassing scene.
Qiao Xiaoyue reacted at this time, and looked at the food in the pot in a little panic, it seemed that it was too late, and it was all mushy.
On the contrary, it was Xiao Yue, he was not surprised why Qiao Xiaoyue was here, as if he had known it for a long time.
When Fang Jue came back just in time for dinner, there were only a few women here, and they usually ate relatively lightly, and Li'er wanted to go out to buy some other food, but was stopped by Fang Jue, so she would eat it.
looked at a table of vegetarian dishes, but the appearance is still there, and the smell is quite fragrant.
Everyone saw that Fang Jue was slow to put down his chopsticks, so they also sat honestly.
"It's only been a few days since I learned, and I didn't have a good meal to make it, if it doesn't suit your appetite, you..."
Qiao Xiaoyue was a little embarrassed, she had tried her best to learn, and she made a few dishes in the best state today, but Fang Jue couldn't use chopsticks.
It's good that the family used to be the county lord, and Hong Shan and Xiao Yue couldn't look at it, but they could only stay honestly.
Fang Jue knew that this table of dishes was made by Qiao Xiaoyue, it was not that he didn't want to use chopsticks, but he always felt weird, if he ate this meal, how should he get along next, and how to treat the nominal wife in front of him. But because of themselves, they even lost the identity of the county lord. Fang Jue was a little indebted, how could he swallow it.
"Let's all eat together, Sensei is looking at me."
Fang Jue still picked up the chopsticks, took a piece of vegetable and put it in his mouth to chew.
"What does it taste... It's just..."
Fang Jue suddenly sold Guanzi, he also wanted to resolve the embarrassment at the moment.
"What is it..."
Qiao Xiaoyue became a little nervous, she was eagerly waiting for Fang Jue's comments.
"Something is missing."
Fang Jue put down his chopsticks and said with a sigh.
Qiao Xiaoyue still didn't understand what was missing, she carefully tasted the dishes she made, there was nothing wrong.
"Oh, I see, the young master wants to drink." Li'er almost forgot.
"Or Li'er understands me."
Fang Jue suddenly brightened, and then smiled at Li'er.
Qiao Xiaoyue was not so nervous, it turned out that it was not that she was not delicious, but that she lacked wine, but Qiao Xiaoyue heard Fang Jue praise her pity, she had been busy for so long, and she didn't even praise her. She is a little envious, when can she understand her husband like Li'er, and she can also get his praise, even if it is a sentence.
"The county lord has worked hard."
Qiao Xiaoyue was thinking about it, Fang Jue really said something, which made her flattered, and she was actually a little embarrassed.
"It's not hard, it's hard work, these are all learned from Li'er."
Although Qiao Xiaoyue no longer has the identity of the county lord, she still retains that temperament, and she modestly pushes the credit to Li'er, which Fang Jue likes to hear.
Today is the day when Fang Jue goes home, so naturally he has to drink a little to celebrate, and even Qiao Xiaoyue has a few more drinks.
After being full of wine and food, the rest of the people were fine, but Qiao Xiaoyue, her cheeks were crimson, as if she had drunk too much.
Qiao Xiaoyue didn't know how to drink, but she still couldn't bear to get herself drunk, because she felt that only in this way would she not face a very embarrassing situation tonight.
Fang Jue's yard is not big or small, and there are several rooms, but in the days when Fang Jue is not there, the master bedroom has been reasonably occupied by Qiao Xiaoyue.
Fang Jue suddenly appeared, and he didn't have time to make room for him, so he wouldn't let Qiao Xiaoyue move out.
