Lin Yilan took the time to rummage through the sea and bought something back, "The dumpling leaves are very good, they are very wide and fresh, but they can only be used if they are boiled in boiling water." Is it okay to have glutinous rice and red bean paste? Put two more red dates, and if there are children here, then you have to remove the core of the red dates. ”

"I'll wash it."

Xiang Hai put the washed peppercorns in Lin Yilan's hand, and began to pack up the dumpling leaves, glutinous rice, red beans and red dates he had just bought.

The two were busy in the kitchen, and the two guests outside were leisurely drinking tea and watching cartoons. The Xu family occasionally felt that there was too much to do, and would poke their heads in the kitchen to peep at the two of them, and sometimes they would be amused by the figure of Xiang Xiang running before and after running to the sea and busy washing things, and they would be driven away by Xiang Hai throwing water.

At the beginning of dinner, the rich aroma of various dishes is mixed together, and it is indescribably wonderful. Xu Erhu sniffed his little nose and swallowed saliva and ran all over the house, intoxicated and screaming. Xiang Hai and Xu Jiang were not idle, helping to serve food from the kitchen to the living room.

Lin Yilan waved a spatula and stood in front of the stove frying green peppers, and after the tiger skin was fried on both sides of the green peppers, she poured the prepared sauce on top, collected the juice over low heat, stacked it on the plate properly, and poured the excess soup.

Xiang Hai put the plate in his hand, looked at her sweaty face, and said with a faint smile, "Thank you for your hard work, you sit there, I'll serve the rice." ”

"It's not very hard, you've been busy all afternoon. I'll serve the rice, and you go and entertain the guests. ”

Xiang Hai quickly put the tiger skin green pepper on the coffee table, turned around and took the rice cooker from her hand, took it to the coffee table and put it away, and came back to get the dishes and chopsticks. Lin Yilan leaned against the wall and watched him grab things, and he didn't fight with him, he wanted to go to the living room to pour a glass of water to drink, and found that a cup had been soaked in his traditional Chinese medicine tea bag, and when he touched the water cup, the temperature was just right. She took it and drank most of it.

"Come on, brother and sister, sit down, you're welcome, they're all your own people. Don't move your chopsticks, the adults haven't come yet, don't embarrass me, you stinky boy. ”

Xu Erhu's round eyes rolled widely, and he looked at Xu Jiang with disgust, "Look at what you said, am I such an ignorant person?" You don't believe me, I'm just sitting honestly. ”

As he spoke, his stomach rumbled for a while, and he didn't know whether he was hungry or hungry. The three of them laughed on the side, his little face was red, his two chubby little hands were folded on the table, and his eyes were staring straight at the plate of drunken crabs.

When the four of them were finally able to sit face to face, they said to each other, "Happy Dragon Boat Festival." They laughed and started happily.

Xu Erhu waited until everyone moved his chopsticks, he picked up his chopsticks and couldn't wait to pick up half of the drunken crab into the bowl, tilted his head and lay down at night to look at the half of the drunken crab, and then looked at his chubby little hands, frowning together. Lin Yilan handed over the disposable gloves, the child cheered, put on the gloves and began to deal with the drunken crab.

The pot of crayfish was placed in front of Xu Jiang, wearing disposable gloves on both hands, and eating them neatly one after another, spicy fried and fried, happy, occasionally eating one or two peanuts over his mouth, and left

All the time is with the crayfish, enthusiastically dancing with the spicy.

I don't know if it's a habit or what, Lin Yilan specializes in dealing with the green skin radish in front of him, occasionally eats one or two chopsticks tiger skin green pepper, and only eats the shiny vermicelli in the mutton soup, and consciously follows the diet on his menu. Xiang Hai chewed peanuts in his mouth, watched her eat green-skinned radish vigorously, and sandwiched a crayfish to her, "Oops, I accidentally fell into it." ”

Lin Yilan pressed the crayfish with chopsticks, puffed out a pair of beautiful eyes and threatened him, "If it falls into my bowl, it's mine, I won't give it." ”

Xiang Hai stared regretfully at the crayfish in her bowl and waved his hand reluctantly, "Ah, goodbye, friend, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye......, goodbye

Xu Erhu finished eating half a drunken shrimp, spicy and confused, while holding the rice in his mouth, he complained, "My God, to the sea, you sing too badly, please shut up, okay?" It's all affecting my appetite. ”

The other two laughed. The meal was very pleasant, and the dishes were almost eaten, and the three that could be eaten were three small and one small.

Xu Jiang took out his and his son's change of clothes from the car and went into the bathroom to wash up first. Xiang Hai went back to his room to change into new sheets. Lin Yilan knocked on the door and asked if he needed his help, and said to Hai that he could, so Lin Yilan followed his advice and stood next to him to supervise the work.

Xiang Hai's action of making the bed is quite skillful and very quick, it seems that he has done this before, after the laying, he wiped his forehead a little sweaty, and winked at Lin Yilan proudly, "I can cook and paint, and make beds, oh my God, I'm really amazing!" ”

He saw the piano that had been placed for a long time, lifted the lid of the piano, and looked at Lin Yilan with a smile, "Oh, I can still play the piano, I'm too good." He said casually, and played a jingle bell in his hand at random, a very cheerful tune, which resounded upstairs and downstairs, and even the father and son who were taking a bath hummed along.

"Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle bells......"

Lin Yilan couldn't help but hum along, and when she encountered the lyrics, she was confused. Her gaze fell on the man's slender fingers dancing on the black and white keys, his clean, unscarred hands. She was distracted, as if admiring something beautiful, until the end of the song, her hands were quietly closed on Xiang Hai's thighs, and her wrists were white and flawless.

She subconsciously raised her hand to look at her wrist, she usually wore a long-sleeved shirt to cover it, but when she just washed the dishes, she rolled up her sleeves, and the scar on her wrist was very obvious at this time, even if the color there was already light, she could still see a few slender white wounds.

She suddenly panicked and jerked down the sleeves of her shirt to block her wrists.

Xiang Hai didn't pay attention to his movement, and beckoned to him slightly, "Come here." ”

Lin Yilan thought that he had seen his movements, and walked over a little stiffly, but he was pulled by him to sit on the stool.

Xiang Hai grabbed her hand and put it on the back of his hand, he was on the piano

Playing a tune slowly, it was the song that Lin Yilan felt very familiar, but couldn't remember anything; It's the song that will calm her mind and stop being irritable; It's also the song that reassures her on several helpless nights.

It's as if a fire that is about to be ignited is suddenly extinguished by the delicate rain. The irritability in Lin Yilan's heart suddenly disappeared. All her attention was on her two hands, no, Xiang Hai's hands. Those flexible hands, like two white butterflies, flying around on the black and white keys, the beautiful music that is given to this world between the beginning and the end, is intoxicating and relaxing, what a precious gift this is!

Her gaze moved up to the white hand, to see the clean and perfect jawline and the long, dark and slender eyelashes that blinked slowly. The top two buttons of his shirt were not buttoned, revealing a white neck, and even a bony collarbone could be seen. Like a piece of white and delicate rice paper.

Lin Yilan has always known that Xiang Haisheng is good-looking, and he is the kind of good-looking with heroic spirit. It's like snow falling outside the window in winter, you can take it in your hands for a short time, but you can't have it forever. You can admire it dancing in the air, but when they are stacked together, the chill is intimidating.

Xiang Hai is a person with these two extreme temperaments.

Xu Erhu jumped upstairs in a cyan dinosaur pajamas, Xu Jiang walked down in gray pajamas, and as soon as he went upstairs, he saw the two of them sitting there holding hands and playing the piano, the atmosphere was very harmonious, he churned with a sour energy, and said very much, "Hey, hey, busy?" ”

The piano stopped abruptly, and the afterglow faded after two laps around the room. Lin Yilan withdrew her hand and stood up, a little overwhelmed. Xiang Hai turned back lazily and looked at Xu Jiang sharply. Xu Jiang remembered that he was in someone else's territory, and it was better for him to think that he was a little cowardly, so he shrank his head and hugged his son into Xianghai's bedroom.

Lin Yilan's heartbeat was a little too fast, and she hurriedly went downstairs to take a shower. Xiang Hai continued to finish the song that he hadn't finished playing just now before going downstairs to take a shower.

The three old men upstairs are crowded into one room, and Lin Yilan is alone in one room. Since drinking the Chinese medicine bag that Xiang Hai gave her, she has had fewer nightmares, but she seems to be gradually gaining weight invisibly. Like now, she felt a little tight at the waist in her pajama pants. She tugged at the elastic on her pants in frustration, looked at her gradually visible double chin in the mirror, and rolled her eyes helplessly.

Early in the morning of the second day, the two went out for more than half an hour before coming back. After breakfast, several people were busy helping to make zongzi together.

After boiling water, the leaves become extra soft and easy to hold. From the 13 places of the zongzi leaves, cross a triangular pit, fill it with a little red bean glutinous rice, three or two pitted red dates in the middle, occasionally mix a candied date, and then fill the upper part of the red bean glutinous rice. The side of the zongzi leaf is repeatedly wound along the whole, and the rope is tied up, and finally it becomes a relatively three-dimensional zongzi, which can be boiled in water.

Lin Yilan worked from the kitchen

I'm used to it, and my hands and feet are relatively neat. The two big men were not good, they were busy for a while, wrapped a few crooked zongzi, and leaked the filling, and were ridiculed by Lin Yilan and Xu Erhu for a while, the two of them looked at each other, continued to wrap their heads, and vowed in their hearts to be ashamed.

The ideal is simply too full, but the reality is too cruel. When the jujube stuffing on the table ran out, they switched to the jujube filling, and the jujube stuffing also ran out, wrapped a few egg yolks, and even wrapped some fresh meat dumplings. Until all the raw materials were used up, the two of them were not ashamed, but were even more mercilessly laughed at by the big and the small. The two of them also felt faceless, one ran to the kitchen to add water to the pot, and the other scooped all the zongzi into the basin and brought them to the kitchen.

Lin Yilan and Xu Erhu saw that the two of them were so interesting, so they were very kind and decided not to laugh at the two anymore. Xu Erhu watched the TV, repeatedly changed the channel according to the channel, and changed to a business and financial column, and was broadcasting a short message, which roughly said that the bidding for the starry sky project in S City has begun, and entrepreneurs from all walks of life are interested in this feng shui treasure, the competition is quite fierce, and it has been fried to 1.2 billion, and all parties are currently having a momentum that is bound to win. How high will the final transaction value of the Star Project be? The audience will wait and see.
