Chapter 33: The Taste of the Year
Gu Ruo was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the man who was still chopping wood outside just now had already stopped moving.
"Maybe I'm going to be busy somewhere again, I'll look for him." After Gu Yuan put down the chopsticks, he ran out like a flight.
Because of such a long time together, the two of them had already let down their guard against Tian Xin. Especially Gu Yuan, who was a little resistant to Tian Xin before, but now he doesn't care at all.
But after looking around the courtyard, I didn't see Gu Han's shadow, although I rarely saw him in normal times, but today it was obviously time to eat.
Gu Yuan was also strange, and went back to tell Tian Xin about it.
"I'll go find him." After saying this, she wanted to get up and go to find Gu Han back, but Chengcheng's voice appeared at the right time to stop her: "Host, I suggest you still don't go, now he is struggling with whether to leave you at home." Because he feels bad about you, and he is grateful to you in his heart, to put it bluntly, he is very entangled. ”
"And where is he now?"
"Lakeside."
Even if he didn't say what the lake was, Tian Xin knew where he was talking about, next to this village was a small hill, and the gurgling spring flowing down from the mountain became a lake over time.
In the end, he hesitated and comforted the two of them first: "Okay, you don't have to worry anymore, I'll go out to find him after eating in a while, anyway, nothing will happen to him as a big man." ”
"My brother is like this, you must not dislike it." Gu Ruo is still afraid that Tian Xin will be disgusted because of these trivial things.
But she shook her head: "Don't worry, I've been here for so long, if I really feel disgusted, I can't stay at your house for a long time." ”
The two of them didn't talk anymore, and bowed their heads to eat.
Tian Xin was not in the mood to eat, so he thought about going out to find him after eating.
Seeing this, Gu Ruo stuffed the cake into his mouth three or two times, stood up and took Tian Xin's hand: "If you want to go to my brother, I will go with you." ”
"Okay." Anyway, she's not very hungry and doesn't like mushrooms very much, so it's a good idea to go out.
When he was on the road, Gu Ruo had a lot of words: "Sister-in-law, I will be one year older after the Chinese New Year this year, and I will never cause you any more trouble in the future." ”
"It's okay, even if it's so, you're still a kid. Besides, a girl doesn't need to be in charge so early, anyway, you have me. After saying that, he smiled lightly.
In fact, what he originally meant was that even if Gu Ruo didn't take charge so early, she could teach her in the future.
Anyway, in ancient times, there was no need to dance and ink, probably only need to learn some customs.
On the way, I happened to meet Gu Han, who was about to come back, and the two glanced at each other, and Tian Xin lowered his head. Maybe it's because I'm ashamed to think about last night.
"Now that we've found my brother, let's go back." Gu Ruo said with a smile.
I don't know what he's going to do, but I always feel that his whole person has changed a lot since he came back, and it's very different from before.
One of the most obvious is that his attitude towards himself is much better than before, if he used to be as cold as an iceberg, he is reluctant to talk to others.
For a long time after that, Gu Han didn't treat her coldly anymore. In fact, it's just that it's not cold and more enthusiastic than before, and the progress between the two people is much faster than before.
The most noteworthy thing is that at least when she goes to bed now, Gu Han will never be so far away from her again, and there will be nothing between the two of them.
At first his words seemed to be: "What is the matter with a girl whose family is not married, and now she sleeps in my bed?" What's more, men and women don't kiss each other. ”
And Tian Xin replied to him: "Since I have been bought back as your wife and children, how can I be considered unmarried?" It's just that the two of them have been bound by books and paper. ”
"But, but I've never married you." Gu Han was a little short of words.
Tian Xin smiled bitterly and covered his forehead.
Firmament! Can anyone tell me what the hell this is?
Feudal thinking! Feudal thinking!
In the blink of an eye, it's time for the New Year.
The firecrackers have been prepared for a long time, and although I don't know where they came from, they can be regarded as something that has a bit of a New Year's atmosphere.
It was rare for Gu Han to smile so happily, perhaps because he was afraid of hurting the two children, he actually stepped forward to light the firecrackers himself. I thought he would only put on a stinky face to others in his life.
Looking at the way she looked at the firecrackers in her arms near the two children, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, and she was a little happy.
It's rare to see him smile like that! I was fascinated by the sight of it.
"Sister-in-law! You don't have to be like this even if you like your brother very much, right, you are so stunned? I don't know how long it took, Gu Ruo ran to her side and shook her hand in front of her, realizing that she was already stunned and laughing at her.
Tian Xin reacted and glanced at her: "What are you kidding, don't I just stay stunned?" ”
Gu Ruo left with a smile and without saying a word.
Naturally, I want to make dumplings for the New Year, but fortunately, they have been made a few days ago.
But I don't know what customs they have here, and they actually ask to make dumplings on the day of the New Year?
It stands to reason that on the day of the New Year, shouldn't it be good to eat the dumplings before? However, since it is a custom on other people's side, it is necessary to follow the customs of the locals, and you can't be picky.
After cutting a lot of vegetables and draining all the water inside, the minced meat was put in. In modern times, the meat is stir-fried first and then put on. However, the wrappers are really thick, and even if the meat in the dumplings is cooked, the skin may not be cooked.
Thinking of what Gu Han volunteered to help a few days ago, it still feels incredible when he thinks about it now.
It's just that the effect is not very good, but it can be regarded as a heart.
The oil in the dumplings is flavored with Sichuan peppercorns, so it tastes delicious. Even if you don't have sesame oil, you don't need to put it anymore.
When the hot dumplings came out of the pot, Tian Xin admired himself.
"Sister-in-law, each of us kneaded this dumpling has a different shape, the one I pinch is more beautiful, and the one I pinch is very ugly." I said this just to mock Gu Yuan, and there was no other meaning in joking.
Gu Yuan was naturally unhappy when he heard it, so he muttered: "I pinched it much better than my brother's pinch." ”
After finishing speaking, a hand was carried on his arm, so that it did not seep into people.
