Shui Lanqing reacted that he was praising her, and couldn't help blushing a little. But what he said was also a little funny.

"My hand, it's nothing special. A lot of dancing girls have flexible fingers, where is as exaggerated as you say. ”

"I know a lot of people who dance, but no one has hands like yours."

Shui Lanqing's hand paused, and she lowered her head again to tear the chicken breast, "My hand is not as good as you said, it is too thin, some people say, it is not a rich hand, there is no blessing." Those really good-looking hands should be fleshy, the kind that have small nests when they are stretched out. ”

"Who's talking that nonsense?" Chen Pengwei was very unhappy when he heard it. There is no blessing, his family is not blessed, and there are no blessed people in this world.

Says who? She couldn't remember exactly, but sometimes when she looked at her hands, the words would float through her mind.

"Whether there is a blessing or not, you can see it with one hand, so you can see if my hands are blessed?" Chen Pengwei said, put down the knife, and stretched out his hand to Lan Qing's eyes, his fingers were also slender, but the roughness of his palm did not need to be touched, it could be seen with the naked eye, it really didn't look like a pair of boy's hands.

Shui Lanqing thought, these hands, if they are put in the eyes of those people who look at blessings with their hands, they are a pair of hands that do rough work. pursed his lips, didn't speak, and watched him hold the knife back and cut things, but at this look, he couldn't help but find that Chen Pengwei's things were fast and thin. He was holding a kitchen knife that was still too heavy, and it seemed to be as light as it was weightless in his hand. The knife is fast and steady, and the sound of "da-da" falls on the cutting board, which is staggered.

"You're so good at knives?" stopped the movement in his hand and rubbed next to him, his eyes fixed on the movements in Chen Pengwei's hand. Looking at the cucumber shreds that had been neatly stacked on the side, and the lotus root slices that were being cut, he shook his head with a sigh.

"Envy?" After a pause, he glanced at the girl who came over with his eyes shining, and Chen Pengwei asked funny.

"Just practice a little more. But your hand, forget it, dance well. Not suitable for this kind of work. ”

"When did you get it?" Shui Lanqing asked strangely, a young master like him shouldn't be.

Chen Pengwei's lowered eyes narrowed slightly, "A few years ago, for a while, my heart couldn't calm down, so I was assigned by our old leader to the cooking class to cut things. Everything was cut for half a year, and everything was practiced. ”

At that time, he had already graduated, and Lan Qing had been missing for more than a year. He used all his connections at the time, and even compromised with his mother, without the slightest news of Qingqing. He entered the army with the first place, but after that, he repeatedly failed the evaluation. Later, even Ye Lao knew about him, had a deep and long talk with him, and when he came out, he sent him to the cooking class to cut vegetables, so that when he would figure it out and when he would come back.

It took him half a year to convince himself that although he never gave up searching, he tried to stop being anxious and emotional, so that everyone could see it. Since then, every time he goes on a mission, he rushes forward desperately, and he has won the title of "Desperate Thirteen Lang" in the army.

Chen Pengwei's mood Shui Lanqing didn't know yet, so she just nodded with a smile, "It seems that this is a good way, if my students can't calm down and practice dancing well in the future, I'll let them cut things." ”

Chen Pengwei glanced at her with a smile, "Where's the pot?" ”

"In the cupboard below you. The lotus root and bamboo shoot tips should be boiled in water. ”

"I know. After you finish making shredded chicken, make borscht, don't worry about the cold noodles. ”

"Oh, good." Shui Lanqing agreed, but she didn't expect why Chen Pengwei would also make cold noodles.

"By the way, did you call Xiaoyi back? She seems to be looking for you before. "I found the pot, took the water, and put it on the stove.

"It's back, it's fine. I just didn't receive my call, and I was in a hurry. After tearing the last piece of chicken breast on my hand, I went to the sink and carefully washed my hands a few times.

"Who did you give the spare keys to the house?"

"What to whom?" In foreign countries, there are always other international students at home, so even if you forget your keys, it's okay. Shui Lanqing didn't have the concept of a spare key in her consciousness at all.

"You live here alone, Xiaoyi is naturally not at ease, but if you give her the key, her house is too far away and it is inconvenient. If you can trust me, let me go for the time being. It's close, what's the matter, I'm better than Xiaoyi to come over. ”

Chen Pengwei said very sincerely, and he didn't stop the movements of his hands while talking, and he couldn't see the slightest hint of coaxing.

Shui Lanqing sounded very reasonable, in the United States, because of physical reasons, except for Mu Yi, the other tenants in the family took care of her, so at this time, Chen Pengwei's care for her didn't make her think much about it at all and nodded.

Chen Pengwei looked at the simple girl who didn't have any scheming at all, and didn't know whether to be happy or worried. Come to think of it, it's just that she can be whatever she loves, and now, he can always protect her well.

After dinner, it was already past seven o'clock in the evening. Shui Lanqing looked at the small bowl of cold noodles that was left, and swallowed her saliva very unsatisfied, but she didn't dare to eat it again. I haven't eaten cold noodles for a while, but I didn't expect Chen Pengwei's craftsmanship to be better than his own. He didn't even drink a few sips of soup, but let Chen Pengwei drink it all.

"Don't eat anymore when you're full, it's yourself who will be uncomfortable for a while." Seeing Shui Lanqing staring at the bowl of noodles on the table unwillingly, Chen Pengwei dragged it in front of him funny.

After two days of eating, he can see it. Shui Lanqing's spleen and stomach are extremely fragile, and she is a little overloaded when she eats very full, which is seven or eight points at most. Fortunately, she is not greedy, so it is not a difficult task. However, tonight, the appetite is good.

"I want to cook it for you in two days, but I haven't used up the ingredients anyway."

"No, it's too much trouble. But what you make is delicious. After speaking, I suddenly remembered that I had invited someone to dinner today, but in the end, it seemed that I had taken advantage of myself again, and I was suddenly a little embarrassed.

"If you're embarrassed, I'll wash the dishes in a moment." Chen Pengwei's eyes swept over, he saw the embarrassment on her face at a glance, and counted about five or six bowls, but he was not afraid that she would be tired.

"Okay."

"I'm done, I've got something to tell you." Watching Shui Lanqing get up and clean up, Chen Pengwei slowly followed behind and added.

Shui Lanqing's heart was "abrupt", and with such a solemn tone, she turned her head to look at him with some apprehension.

"It's about the house?"

"Well, don't worry, it's not a bad thing."

Hearing him say this, Shui Lanqing relaxed slightly.

"You just went to find the man who sold the house?" He asked as he walked to the kitchen.

“··· No, I called him when I got back. ”

Chen Pengwei followed to the kitchen, leaning on the door frame to watch Shui Lanqing brush the dishes. This girl is still a tendon, always engrossed in everything, and it is difficult to do things with two minds. I just asked myself about the house, and I didn't care about brushing the dishes.

A couple of bowls, no oil, were quickly brushed. After washing their hands, the two sat back on the sofa, and Shui Lanqing remembered what had just happened.

"You called that guy, what did he say?"

Chen Pengwei didn't sell it this time, and said very happily, "I told him about your situation, and he said that the price can be negotiated, but I hope to talk to you face-to-face." ”

Shui Lanqing thought about it and nodded, "Yes, it should be." ”

"If you think it's okay, then I'll set him for tomorrow morning, okay?"

"You will defend, I will listen to you. I don't know how to do it. ”

Shui Lanqing sat there, and her words were extremely well-behaved, like when she asked him for advice when she was a child.

Chen Pengwei thought silently, after so many years, he really still only likes this well-behaved girl. Over the years, none of the women around him have been disobedient. But there is only this one, who has been missing for ten years, and there are countless anger and unwillingness in her heart, but as long as she looks at herself so quietly and seriously, all negative emotions turn into tenderness, and only peace of mind and satisfaction are left in her heart.

Who said that security can only be given to women by men. After tasting the taste of loss, I knew that he Chen Pengwei, a dignified man's sense of security, was always given by this weak and small woman in front of him. That's it, in his life, he just admitted it.

Looking up at the time, it was almost eight o'clock, and I didn't want to leave, but I had learned about Shui Lanqing's schedule from Gu Wenhao's side before, gritted my teeth, and stood up ruthlessly.

"Okay, I'll go first. You go to rest. said this in his mouth, but his eyes looked at Shui Lanqing, expecting her to stay.

It's just that this girl doesn't have any tacit understanding with him now, frowning and nodding, "I ate too much tonight, so I have to do one more set of exercises." You've been running for a day today, so go back early and rest. ”

"Then wait for me to have breakfast tomorrow morning. By the way, give me the key to your house. Give me a handful of the front door and the back door. ”

"Oh." He didn't say it, Shui Lanqing forgot about it. Took the key and gave him the back door. Locked the door, turned and went upstairs to get the yoga mat.

After more than an hour of practice, washing up, and then lying on the bed, it was almost ten o'clock. For Shui Lanqing now, it is already very late.

Lying on the bed, I couldn't sleep for a while, thinking, I don't know what the person who sold the house will ask for tomorrow, with Chen Pengwei here, it shouldn't be too much.

There is still no news about the passport, thinking about the smooth handling of the ID card today, I don't know if I ask Chen Pengwei, he will help.

The American school doesn't know if it wants to refuse, and it's not good to delay it any longer, so it's really not good, so let's forget it this semester first.

If you can't get your passport for a while, it's better to take advantage of this time to go out for a walk, and I've always wanted to go to the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang to see the real flying murals, as well as the dances of various ethnic minorities in China who can sing and dance.

After thinking about it for a while, he fell asleep in a daze. In my sleep, I kept hearing someone shouting "Qingqing, Qingqing." The voice was gentle and doting, so that she was immersed in it and did not want to wake up.
