……

"What did you eat for the night?" The boy let go of her first words.

Ying Zhichu stared at him and said dissatisfiedly: "Garlic! ”

Sure enough, the atmosphere stiffened for more than a dozen breaths.

Silver light shone on the steps, and two lingering shadows overlapped.

I thought the man would push her away in disgust and rush to rinse her mouth.

Unexpectedly, the young man just tilted his head slightly and exhaled a short breath, as if he didn't hold back his laughter.

Then he stared back at her, and his long arms pressed his waist tighter.

"Coincidentally, I also like garlic." He chuckled.

Ying Zhichu tilted his head, looking like he didn't understand.

Before he could react, he saw the young man leaning over again.

"Hmm-Qi, cool, fight!" She freed up her hand to thrash him.

The boy was unmoved and fell deeper.

This night passed unharmed.

The next day

Ying Zhichu got up and saw Qi Liang standing next to the table.

"You, why are you here?" She sat up with the quilt and said stupidly.

"This is my house, you can be here, I can't?" The boy leaned against the table and raised his eyebrows at her.

With a worried face, there was some saliva on the bulging face, and even the placket was messy.

A hint of darkness flashed in the young man's eyes, and this woman's sleeping appearance was really indescribable.

"I mean, why are you in this house, you have your own room." She untied the curtain she had forgotten to put the night before, trying to use it to cover his inquiring gaze.

The young man understood her actions, and first turned around in cooperation, and then slowly floated out a sentence,

"Miss Liang, the house here is mine."

"Huh~" quickly put down the curtain, and she whispered her disdain while getting dressed.

For a while, there was only the sound of rustling clothes rubbing against each other, and there was no sound of the two of them talking.

When she got out of bed and wanted to question the man, she smelled the fragrance of porridge.

Pretended to glance at the table with a reserved look, and then couldn't hold his gaze.

Goji berry and japonica rice porridge, small wontons with shepherd's cabbage, fragrant egg custard, shallots mixed with tofu, cloud slice ham, grilled dried fish, and hot meat buns.

"You did this?" Ying Zhichu sat down first, picked up the chopsticks and set up the posture to pick up the vegetables, and asked with a suspicious expression.

"I bought the meat buns, the one you said was delicious last time." The young man sat beside her and poured a bowl of herbal tea for himself.

"What I said?" Ying Zhichu didn't remember, so he first sandwiched a piece of ham and tasted mixed tofu before picking up a meat bun.

"Why is the food so good today?" She asked casually, holding up the half-bitten bun.

Obviously, these two days have been boiled cabbage noodles and the like.

Why did you change it today?

Is there something happy to celebrate?

Qi Liang first watched her eat with disgust, and then hooked the corners of his lips because of this question.

Stretched out his right hand and pinched her face, and said, "What do you say? ”

"I said? I don't know. Ying Zhichu bit the bun again, and the more he ate, the more fragrant it became.

After that, I suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a little delicate.

She fluttered her eyelashes and twisted her neck slightly to look at him, meeting his "don't you understand" look.

And then the little thing that happened on the steps last night.

The night was dark, the wind was strong, and the two embraced each other......

The girl felt like she was electrocuted.

A mouthful of minced meat choked in her throat, and her cheeks burned red, "Ahem, cough, cough." ”

Qi Liangzheng pushed the small bowl of wontons to her hand and looked away.

Ying Zhichu silently drank several sips of wonton soup before he felt much better.

"Qi Liangzheng, you want to make a face, okay!" After gritting her teeth and saying these words, she squeezed the meat bun in her hand fiercely.

What is he trying to express?

Temporary extra meals, just to reward her last night...... Didn't you struggle?

Can he use it?

"If I can beat you, can I grovel like this!" The girl argued.

Qi Liang's hand for her porridge trembled, looked at the small bowl in his hand, and then looked at the girl's indignant eyes, and suddenly smiled,

"Miss Liang, are you sure you're groveling?"

"What?!"

"I'm the one who is enslaved."

Watching the hot porridge pushed in front of him, Ying Weaving was speechless for the first time.

It seems like...... It seems like so.

It's right to eat people with a soft mouth.

But is he supposed to be feeding pigs? She's done with all that!

"Ah, I forgot." The young man shook his head suddenly, looking at the table with dissatisfaction.

The girl's complaining thoughts were dragged back, and she said angrily: "What have you forgotten? ”

"I forgot to prepare garlic for you."

"Qi Liangzheng!"

"Poof—"

……

Eating, fighting, washing dishes, fighting.

After taking care of this trivial matter, the two of them came to the gazebo one after the other.

Today's sun is not too poisonous, and there is less cold wind.

Ying Weaving wrapped his purple cloak and sat on the stone bench with his hands rubbed.

"Do you want to play chess?" The boy asked, putting his fingers on the chessboard.

"Boring."

"You don't know how to get off, do you?" In the words of the teenager.

"Hey, I'm very good, I'm not convinced!"

"Come on, I'll fry garlic for you at noon."

"Qi Liangzheng, you can't get over this hurdle, right?"

“……”

……

After staying here for another five days, there was no one in the huge mansion except for Qi Liangzheng.

In addition to bickering, the two are playing chess, calligraphy and painting, and all kinds of leisure and boring matters.

On the night of Xiao Qi's disappearance, Ying Zhichu told Qi Liangzheng about it.

I thought the boy would frown, or groan for a moment, or take a risk to pursue it?

After all, according to Xiao Qi's unpredictable temperament, it is impossible to go to the government to expose them and receive a reward for a big meal in a restaurant.

Because, when he grabbed food with himself, he looked at it like this.

"I'm stupid too, I shouldn't let him go casually with such a dangerous character as Xiao Qi." The girl looked at Qi Liangzheng at that time and took the initiative to reflect.

At that time, Qi Liangzheng just smiled and sighed.

said something that she was ashamed to hear.

"Great, the idlers are finally gone." After the young man finished speaking, he was about to bully himself again.

Ying Zhichu retreated and dodged.

…… Thinking about the picture at that time, she couldn't laugh at all.

In the evening, she was counting the days with her fingers crossed.

It's been five days since the last snow walk.

They are still staying here safe and sound, does it mean that Brother Fu Chai has not completed the task?

Will the emperor punish him?

Thinking of this, the girl was a little anxious, and got up to ask Qi Liangzheng about the situation outside.

As soon as he pushed the door open, he was bumping into a man head-on.

She staggered back, touched her nose and said, "I have something to look for you." ”

"Me too." The boy looked inside the room and closed the door.

The girl subconsciously took a few steps back and said, "You say it first." ”

"Do you want to go out tonight?" The boy asked.

"Where to go? Can we get out, won't we be arrested? ”

"There are a lot of words, just pack up if you want to go, I'll wait for you outside." The boy turned to leave.

"Qi Liangzheng, the secret guards didn't punish them, right?" After all, the three-day deadline has passed.

The boy didn't answer, only closed the door in a slightly louder voice.

Ying Zhichu changed into a plain dress, wrapped his cloak and came out.

Qi Liangzheng was still dressed in black, standing in the courtyard looking a little lonely.

She tightened her cloak and trotted over to him.

"Where are we going?" Thinking that the dinner problem has not been solved tonight, I can't offend this guy in front of me.

"The emperor fined Fu Chai a year's salary, and then banned him for a month."

The young man grabbed her cool hand and led her out.

"Such a light penalty?" Ying Zhichu was a little unconvinced, how to say that the county lord of Hui'an is also a county lord, and her death can't set off storms.

"Heh, I'm not stupid this time, I know that the punishment is light." The boy scoffed.

Ying Zhichu also nodded, "Did you not say anything, I was afraid that I would not tell me if I thought about it too much, such as the emperor reprimanding him for fifty boards or even one hundred and ten boards?" ”

"That's not true, it's just that someone took the blame for him." The boy opened the back door and led her out.

"Behind the pot?" She was puzzled.

The trail is sparsely populated, and you have to walk a little bit to see the main road.

It was dark at the moment, and Ying Zhichu could only see his face vaguely.

I only felt that the young man laughed very tauntingly, and said sarcastically: "Jingchen carried this heavy cauldron for him." ”

"You mean Shock! How's that for the dust! Ying Zhichu said in a trembling voice.

"I guess I'm borrowing wine from that tavern to kill my sorrows, after all, I lost my job." Qi Liangzheng replied casually, dragging her closer to him again.

“…… How so. The girl muttered, restless.

Qi Liangzheng didn't answer again, and took her out of the path with her left and right and came to the main road.

Listening to the lively sounds in her ears, the woman was still immersed in her thoughts.

Let Qi Liangzheng take her through the crowd, I don't know how long they walked, and the two stopped.

"Here we are." The young man said in a loud voice.

Looking at the gold lacquer plaque above her head, the girl opened her mouth in surprise.

"Gambling house?"
