Chapter 30: The Return of the Dust and Dust
"Early summer, guess who set the fire in the attic that day?"
Wei Jingran hadn't seen her for several days, and now that he finally had a suitable reason to come and see her, he hurried over.
Li Chuxia shaved the fishbone on his hand, tilted his head and asked Wei Jingran, "Who is it?" ”
"The first chef Wang Shan." When Wei Jingran said this name, a dark glint crossed his eyes.
He never thought that his chef would try his best to kill Li Chuxia, and even took the risk of pouring oil in the middle of the night to burn her alive.
"Isn't that the head chef? Where did I offend him? ”
Li Chuxia subconsciously asked this sentence, but then immediately understood the reason why the chef wanted to harm himself, but he was afraid that his status would be threatened.
"He didn't know, I never wanted to be the first chef."
Continuing to shave the fish bones in his hands, Li Chuxia spoke without raising his head, "I really responded to that sentence, and I spent the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain." ”
Wei Jingran looked at the girl and didn't react much, and breathed a sigh of relief, so he continued: "The night he set fire to the attic, he was seen by another guy who got up at night, and I sent him directly to the official mansion, and the magistrate sentenced him to deliberate murder, and he was punished with a cane of one hundred and eighty boards, and imprisoned for five months. ”
"Tsk, stealing chickens doesn't make rice, and you're hurting yourself." Li Chuxia sighed that the man was not well-intentioned, and at the same time threw the fish in his hand directly into the boiling hot pot to boil.
Wei Jingran watched the fish being thrown directly into the churning pot, and swallowed his saliva inexplicably, the girl next to him began to make delicious food again, but he didn't expect to be able to eat fish this time.
Li Chuxia had a smile in his eyes, seeing that he stretched his neck to look at the pot, and directly covered the pot arrogantly, "Do you want to eat?" If you want to eat, you'll have to wait a while. ”
"Gluttony." Wei Jingran took care of his image, and still didn't make too embarrassing moves, but he still licked his lips subconsciously.
"Brother Jingran, do you want to eat osmanthus cake?" Li Chuyun walked over with a plate of pastries.
"Thank you, Chuyun."
Wei Jingran reached out and took a piece of osmanthus cake to fill his stomach, and saw that Li Chuxia was still preparing to cook other dishes, so he simply sat on the small stool next to her and watched her busy.
The two chatted with each other, but Wei Jingran fell into the imagination of this girl, seeing that she was busy cooking, because there were a lot of sweat beads on her forehead because of the fever, and her fair face also had a more ruddy complexion, and the occasional action of wiping sweat with long sleeves was also very good-looking.
Li Chuxia didn't know that the man around him had fallen into a for himself, and he was cutting green onions, ginger and garlic in his hands, thinking about the problem that the restaurant he just said had increased the number of diners because of the adjustment of the dishes.
"It's actually quite good that just three dishes can have such a big response."
She never thought that three dishes would attract so many people to eat on the first floor, and if she opened a restaurant in the future, the business would definitely be full.
Putting the chopped green onions, ginger and garlic directly into the pot and stir-frying, Li Chuxia said to himself: "I didn't expect that there were so many foodies in ancient times, and it was really the people who took food as the sky." ”
"Jing Ran, I thank you for killing me in the fire that night."
Li Chuxia turned his head and thanked Wei Jingran seriously, but he didn't expect that the person in front of him had been supporting his head with one hand, staring at himself in a daze.
Angrily, he shook the kitchen knife in front of him, "Come back to your senses!" ”
"Ahh
Wei Jingran was frightened by the kitchen knife that suddenly appeared in front of him, didn't he just see Li Chuxia talking softly to himself? Why is there a sharp kitchen knife in front of you in the next second!
Li Chuxia looked at him like this, feeling very funny, turned his head to open the lid of the pot and looked at the fish that had been cooked, and hurriedly took a large basin to put out a whole fish.
"The fish is ready, it's time to eat!"
After the three of them had a happy lunch, Wei Jingran was directly driven away by Li Chuxia, on the grounds that as a young owner, he naturally had a lot of things to do, and he shouldn't be mixed with peasant girls like them.
Although Wei Jingran explained many times that he had nothing to do, he was still kicked out of the courtyard by this girl.
Shaking his head helplessly, Wei Jingran still left with a satisfied smile on the corner of his mouth.
The reason why Li Chuxia wanted to get rid of Wei Jingran was because he thought that this big man was in the way around him, and he looked like a big heel worm step by step.
"Obviously a big man, sometimes more clingy than a child, and very obstructive." Li Chuxia pouted in disgust, Wei Jingran usually couldn't help much in the kitchen, and occasionally helped in a hurry.
After a busy half a month, when Li Chuxia was busy cooking for Li Chuyun every day, he also went to the First Restaurant every once in a while to teach those cooks to cook, and his life was simple and fulfilling.
She hadn't thought of Baili Yunzheng's existence for several days, and since the day the man didn't say goodbye, she had deliberately suppressed the thoughts in her heart and didn't let herself think about the indifferent and ruthless man.
Baili Yunzheng, who was fighting on the battlefield, didn't know her thoughts, and even every time she went into battle to kill the enemy, she no longer had the heart of death, but thought about the warmth given to him by the person in her heart, and worked harder to fight the enemy army in a foreign country.
Baili Yunzheng only took more than half a month to sweep away a strong Fanguo army, and wanted to see the person he wanted to see as soon as possible, so on the night of the end of the counterinsurgency, he rode back to the small mountain village overnight.
By the time Baili Yunzheng returned to the small courtyard, it was already late at night, and the candle flame in the house had already been extinguished.
"In early summer, I'm back." Whispering a sentence to Li Chuxia's house, he quietly went around the main house and went back to his own room to sleep.
The next morning, Li Chuxia was about to pick a little fresh vegetable leaves to cook gruel in the small vegetable field he had opened, but he didn't expect to see a horse tied to the river.
Even though he was a little excited in his heart, Li Chuxia still suppressed all his emotions, quietly came to the door of the familiar house, and found that the door was not closed tightly and was hidden.
After pushing the door, the familiar person was lying on the bed, breathing evenly and sleeping, as if he had been there for half a month and had not left.
"Baili Yunzheng......" Li Chuxia muttered his name, seeing that a lot of stubble had grown on the side of his mouth, there were bruises under his eye sockets, and there was a lot of tiredness on his face.
Gently closing the door, he turned and left the room, returning to the kitchen to cook.
Baili Yunzheng was woken up by the birds in the mountains and forests, he slept very little every night when he was on the battlefield, and even slept lightly at all times, and came back last night to lie on the familiar bed, and involuntarily slept very soundly.
It's like letting go of the guard in your heart, and only when you come back here can you feel a sense of relief.
got up and followed the familiar fragrance to the kitchen, looking at Li Chuxia's back when he was busy making breakfast, his eyes could no longer leave her.
"Big brother!"
A familiar voice sounded beside him, Baili Yunzheng turned his head to look at Li Chuyun who ran over to hug him, his face involuntarily brought two points of softness, and he reached out and rubbed her hair.
"I haven't seen you for half a month, but the first clouds have grown taller." Baili Yunzheng's narrow phoenix eyes had a little more tenderness in them.
Li Chuyun said angrily: "Where did the big brother go?" Why don't you tell us? It hurts Chu Yun to miss you so much! ”
Baili Yunzheng just hooked the corners of his mouth and didn't speak, he looked up at the figure in the kitchen, waiting for the man's surprised reaction, but she didn't seem to hear his voice, just busy in the kitchen.
The person who was busy making breakfast had already heard the movement of the two people at the door, and the reason why she didn't want to speak was because he left quietly, and now he came back quietly.
When she is here is an express hotel! If it's an express hotel, others have to register when they check in, what's going on with him? Come when you want, go when you want.
Baili Yunzheng approached her and said beside her, "I'm back." ”
Li Chuxia continued to do his own thing expressionlessly, boiled the porridge, cut the pickles he had prepared before, and asked Li Chuyun to cook together, without paying attention to Baili Yunzheng throughout the whole process.
"Sister, why didn't you prepare your big brother's dishes and chopsticks?" Li Chuyun saw that she only put the two people's dishes and chopsticks on the table, and there was three points of blame hidden in her words, but she still ran to the kitchen to get the dishes and chopsticks.
Baili Yun Zheng sat down at the table, deliberately approaching Li Chuxia, wondering in his heart why she ignored herself.
"In the early summer, I rushed back from the northern frontier, and I changed three horses in one day and one night, and I miss you very much." Baili Yunzheng spoke in a low voice beside her.
Li Chuxia originally held the chopsticks to add pickles to the hand and ate directly, the expression on his face was almost not tense, but it returned to normal in an instant.
Li Chuyun walked over with the dishes and chopsticks, and deliberately sat down next to him and served him a dish, "Big brother, the pickles made by my sister are delicious, you can taste them." ”
"Thank you, Chuyun." The corners of Baili Yunzheng's mouth barely pulled a smile, he really couldn't figure out that he had traveled thousands of miles to come back, she didn't react at all, and she was a lot colder.
After the three of them had breakfast, Li Chuxia went back to the kitchen to wash the dishes, and Baili Yunzheng took this opportunity to pull Li Chuyun to ask about the current situation.
"Chu Yun knows why your sister did this to me?"
Baili Yunzheng now puts all his hopes on Li Chuyun, maybe only this little girl who gets along with her day and night can know the root of the matter.
Li Chuyun blinked in confusion, "What did my sister do to you?" ”
"She ......" Baili Yunzheng opened his mouth and just wanted to say something, when he saw Li Chuxia walking straight towards him.
