Chapter 100: Chinese New Year's Eve

As the days passed, and Chinese New Year's Eve was one step closer, every household was busy, or cleaning the courtyard, removing the old cloth and the new, or putting up lights, Fang Lan had already prepared rice cakes, three livestock meals, three teas and five wines and other enshrined food, and sent some to Su Jin.

At that time, Su Jin was squatting on the threshold to see the people of Cloud City busy with a happy face, and when she heard Fang Lan say that tomorrow was Chinese New Year's Eve, she burped in surprise.

Time flies, time flies. Just thinking about Xiao Yan's return to Beijing, she actually forgot about her life, and she planned to have a good time at the end of this year.

Chinese New Year's Eve arrived in a blink of an eye, and Su Jin had already made a long list of menus, bought them in advance in the morning, and went into the kitchen in the afternoon to work hard.

Lu Jun woke up from a nap, walked past the carved window of the kitchen, and caught a glimpse of the person spinning the top inside.

"What are you doing?" He tilted his head and asked with some confusion.

Su Jin turned around when he heard the sound and saw the white-clothed young man standing in front of the window.

The winter sun was very warm, shining on the thin golden hook of the window, the breeze was gentle, and the silk curtain rolled slowly, pulling a trace of black hair on his sideburns, hanging slightly to the side of his face, and smearing the softness of the air into the hem of his clothes.

Lu Jun didn't want to live with others, so he pretentiously built a shed under the plum blossom forest in the inn courtyard, which was called "attached to the landscape and close to nature", in fact, everyone knew that the ice and jade Lord Lu was absolutely unable to smell the smell of stinky feet and sweat, and never heard the sound of hiccups and farts, so he would rather freeze himself than enter the house.

"Cooking Chinese New Year's Eve dinner." Su Jin raised the dish in his hand, "Do you want to be together?" ”

Lu Jun raised his eyebrows and stepped in, but kept a distance from the stove, and just watched Chef Su wash the vegetables with interest.

Su Jin snorted suddenly.

It smells so good!

She looked up at Lu Xuan.

Because of the proximity, Su Jin saw some scattered plum petals scattered between Lu Jun's hair, and the rose color fell in the brown, reflecting the two bright colors under his eyes.

Probably just woke up, Lu Jun's eyes did not have the bottomless darkness of the past, but instead brought a little star-like innocence under such sunlight, looking at Su Jin's movements with curiosity.

"Lu Jun, you have petals on your head."

He stretched out his hand to take it off, but he brought the plum blossom fragrance with his sleeves, and Su Jin, who smoked it, was a little intoxicated.

Can she sleep under the plum tree for two days and be so fragrant?

However, fantasy is fantasy after all, such a cold day can only be lived in by Lu Xuan, a person who wants demeanor and not temperature.

She hurried to wash the dishes in front of her, and then carried them to the board.

"Come, put that bowl of chili peppers next to the coriander, I'm going to put the vegetables."

However, after shouting for a long time, Su Jin didn't see Lu Jun make a move, and couldn't help but look at him suspiciously, "I said, why are you stunned?" ”

Lu Jun raised his eyes and said very calmly, "Which is the chili pepper and which is the coriander?" ”

Su Jin: ......

She stuffed the vegetable basin with water in her hand into Lu Jun's arms without saying a word, and saw that a look of fear flashed on his face, and immediately threatened, "If you dare to throw my freshly washed vegetables on the ground and get dusty, I will make you muddy!" ”

Lu Jun had to hold the vegetable pot awkwardly, watched Su Jin vacate his place on the case, and hurriedly handed it out, looking at his water-stained front with disgust.

"It's just water, big brother!" Su Jin couldn't laugh or cry, "Don't you look like your clothes are stained with countless viruses, okay?" ”

Lu Jun still frowned, and took out a handkerchief embroidered with half a piece of peach blossom to wipe it gently.

"There are peach blossom ...... embroidered on the handkerchief" Su Jin touched his nose and felt that this person was really exquisite.

"However, since your clothes are already dirty, why don't you let it be useful again," Su Jin handed him a few potatoes, "come, cut them." ”

Lu Jun pinched it with his slender fingers, a little stunned, and muttered, "How do you get this?" ”

"Isn't it?" Su Jin was a little stunned and said, "Didn't you talk about cooking before?" Why can't I tell the difference between chili pepper and coriander today, and I don't know how to cut vegetables? ”

"I haven't cooked," Lu Jun was very calm, "I've only read books, so let me really cook, I won't." ”

The three words "I won't" really defeated Su Jin, she resigned herself to taking the potatoes back and cutting them bitterly.

Lu Jun lowered his eyes and watched her finish cutting one, and suddenly stretched out his hand, "I will." ”

"Huh?" Su Jin didn't believe it, but Lu Jun actually pushed her, and she naturally stood in front of the board and squeezed the knife to cut.

Isn't it, is Lu Jun really so smart that he can learn it at a glance?

She hurried up to take a look.

Holding the knife, Lu Jun looked at the potato with great confidence, and his hand clattered.

Clicks and clicks, and the potato wedges fall on the board.

Putting down the knife, Lu Jun looked at Su Jin with satisfaction.

"How?"

"How?" Su Jin's muscles flared up, and she gritted her teeth and spoke, "Are you embarrassed to ask me?" I'm cutting all thin slices, are you going to build a city when you cut so thick? ”

Only then did Lu Jun realize that what he cut seemed to be indeed different from Su Jin's.

"Alright, alright," Su Jin suddenly disliked him a little, and snatched the knife from his hand, "Net increase my workload." ”

Lu Yan looked indifferent and smiled slightly, "If you let me cut another one, I will definitely be able to." ”

"If you are allowed to practice sword skills again, we won't have to eat at night!" Su Jin changed the knife for the potatoes and chopped the chopping board very loudly, "I'm going to make a hot pot at night, do you eat spicy or not?" ”

"Hot pot?" Fang Yuan, who was walking in the door to deliver candy to Su Jin, pricked up his ears, "What is that delicious?" ”

Su Jin turned around and saw Fang Yuan standing at the door, his thin little face was full of excitement, and he immediately smiled, "Hot pot is a dish that can be eaten while cooking, and when you eat it, the food is still steaming, and the soup is one......"

Fang Yuan immediately swallowed his saliva.

Su Jin couldn't help laughing when she heard it, "There are only two people in your family, why don't you come over tonight to be our companion and eat together?" ”

"Good, good!" Fang Yuan immediately ran away, "I'll go get my family's food." ”

Su Jin smiled and watched Fang Yuan run faster than a rabbit, poured all the prepared vegetables into a basin, poured in the meat filling, and began to live the filling.

Lu Jun watched her little hand pinch the chopsticks and turn around in the basin, "What is this for?" ”

"Dumplings." Su Jin shook his hands a little tiredly, like teaching a baby who didn't know anything, "This is stuffing, I want to live it like this." ”

Lu Jun looked at it and took it, "I will do this." ”

Seeing that his movements were natural, Su Jin was also relieved to hand it over to him, and he went to work on something else.

The two of them were busy working, Fang Lan and Fang Yuan also walked into the house with a bunch of food, and their eyes widened when they saw Lu Xuan, who was dressed in a fairy spirit, standing in the room and making stuffing.

This, this, this...... It's a little too jarring, isn't it?

Lu Jun didn't feel anything, nodded to them very naturally, and focused on the stuffing business again.

Fang Lan stared at him for a long time, her face turned red, and she quickly turned her head to Su Jin and said, "If you bother the adults, you ...... blame Xiao Yuan."

"What's the bother?" Su Jin didn't know how to get some flour on the tip of her nose, at the moment she looked like a kitten with a white nose, she looked up with a smile, "New Year, naturally the more people, the better." ”

Seeing her so easy-going, Fang Lan was also much more natural, and hurriedly helped Su Jin and Fang Yuan cut and wash vegetables, secretly glanced at Lu Yan from time to time, and then quickly lowered her head with a red face.

Several people were busy in the kitchen non-stop, during which Su Jin also called down the monkeys who were watching the play on the beam of the house to join in, and when all the dishes were ready, it was almost time to eat.

Su Jin rolled out the dough he had woken up and handed it to Fang Lan on the side, Fang Yuan also curiously grabbed a skin, followed the example of Su Jin and Fang Lan and filled it with stuffing, and the moment he pinched it, he was immediately ridiculed by the monkey mercilessly.

"Poofha, you wrapped a pig, this is!" The monkey smiled and leaned back, "It's ridiculous!" ”

"How did you wrap it?" Fang Yuan was suddenly angry, and immediately puffed out a small face, "If you have the ability, you can pack one!" ”

"Bag is pack," said the monkey, picking up a skin and pinching it with great care.

Moments later......

"Hahahahaha This time it was Fang Yuan's turn to lean forward and close back, "It's ugly!" ”

The monkey looked at the ball in his hand with some embarrassment and smacked his lips.

"I'll try." Lu Jun, who had been busy all day, also came over, his slender fingertips supported the white dough, like holding a piece of beautiful jade, he followed Su Jin's example to fill it in, his middle finger to pick the skin, and his index finger and thumb to press.

He frowned, "Why can't you pinch it?" ”

"Eh, that's how it needs to be here." Su Jin saw that Lu Jun was very good, and suddenly found that he couldn't hold it, and reacted that he probably used the flour noodles, pinched his hand and handed it to him, poured some water on the edge, and smiled at him, "It's good now, you try again." ”

Lu Jun lowered his head and was looking at the skin in his hand intently, but he didn't notice that Su Jin was suddenly very close to him, and this smile suddenly fell on his eyes.

The young man in front of him, his eyes were shining, full of gentle smiles, he suddenly remembered the dancing posture he saw that night, as if a string was plucked in his heart, and a loud sound of "Zheng" echoed in his chest.

However, in this moment of trance, the smile has returned to its original place, only the warmth on his wrist is still faintly remaining, he lowered his head, silently reached out to pinch the skin, put it on the table, and turned his back on his hand.

"Lord Lu pinched it so well." Fang Yuan's eyes were suddenly full of envy, "I'm going to make it like this." ”

Lu Jun didn't answer, but smiled slightly.

No one saw him, and his hand behind his back pinched the wrist, rubbing it gently, as if looking for a hazy dream that had been inadvertently lost.

The food was served, and the five of them formed a circle, smiling in a hot steam, Su Jin originally wanted to ask Xiao Qiao and them to celebrate the New Year's Eve together, but they had already left Cloud City a few days ago, so they gave up.

Lu Jun took out the peach blossom wine he brewed last year, and Su Jin immediately poured it for everyone, looking like "cheap does not take advantage of nothing", which made Fang Yuan shave his face and laugh at her.

"Come!" Su Jin raised his glass and saluted everyone, "To everyone here." ”

As soon as she raised her sleeves, her white wrist slipped out, and Lu Jun, who was sitting next to her, suddenly flashed his eyes, reached out and pinched her wrist, and lifted it in front of him.

"Ahh The wine fell on Su Jin's cuffs, and she quickly changed hands and put it down, "What are you doing?" ”

The wrist was slender and smooth, but there was a reddish spot at the pulse, shaped like a small crescent, and it was impossible to see it if you didn't look closely.

He reached out and touched it, but found that there was no bulge, it appeared to be a spot of blood under his skin.

"Did you hit where today?" Lu Jun frowned.

He had seen it in a book.

It seems to be ...... A sign before the onset of some extremely potent Gu poison?
