Chapter Eighty-Eight: Autumn Water Crossing (1)
Uncle Shi, this is ...... Jealous?
Chu Ziqing was frightened by his own thoughts, and there was a hint of joy in his heart, but he was immediately vetoed, how could Uncle Shi be jealous? But the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.
"Why did Uncle Shi suddenly mention that Qiyan is here, I just want to go out shopping with Uncle Shi." Chu Ziqing leaned against the door frame and said.
Hearing this, Yun Ximian's heart jumped "thump", Yun Ximian touched his heart strangely, suppressed his unnatural emotions and agreed: "Oh, it's quite stuffy in the room anyway, it's okay to go out for a walk." After finishing speaking, Yun Ximian couldn't wait to slap himself twice, why did he agree?
Chu Ziqing smiled, agreed softly, and then asked, "Then Uncle I'm in." ”
"Come in." Yun Ximian was annoyed by her chagrin, and she didn't have time to pay attention to what Chu Ziqing asked, and when she reacted, Chu Ziqing had already walked next to her.
Yun Ximian: "......"
Her habit of being in a daze has to be changed.
"Why doesn't Uncle Shi tie his hair?" Chu Ziqing bent down and asked in Yun Ximian's ear.
Feeling Chu Ziqing's breath lapping in his ears, Yun Ximian moved his neck slightly, looked sideways at the floor, and said, "I forgot." "Anyway, it's the same whether she is tied or not, she is even uglier.
"Then I'll help my uncle tie his hair?" Chu Ziqing got a little closer, Yun Ximian was almost squeezed off the stool, but fortunately, the other hand propped up on the stool next door and eased up, which didn't cause a tragedy, afraid that Chu Ziqing would do something again, Yun Ximian nodded indiscriminately.
Chu Ziqing skillfully tied Yun Ximian's hair, and Yun Ximian boredomically swayed the sword spike on the Ruoshui sword.
"Alright." Finally, a simple silver hairpin was used to fix the bun, and Chu Ziqing walked to the side from behind Yun Ximian, as if to see how it was tied.
"Brother Chu, are you in there?" Tang Qiyan came over with two wooden boxes at this time, and when she saw the closed door, she didn't dare to speak loudly, and asked in a low voice.
Chu Ziqing walked over and opened the door, startling Tang Qiyan, who was secretly lying on the door to watch, and almost fell to the ground without standing firmly, but he didn't fall.
"Why are you sneaking around with something?" Chu Ziqing was also taken aback by her, and looking at her embarrassed expression, she knew that she must have thought of going somewhere else, Chu Ziqing coughed a few times and said, "I'm going out with my uncle for a while, and I probably won't come back for dinner." ”
Tang Qiyan nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "Well, I know, even if the two of you live outside, it doesn't matter!" ”
Chu Ziqing: "......"
After driving away Tang Qiyan, Chu Ziqing came back with the two boxes, and Yun Ximian still maintained the posture of playing with the sword spike just now, and didn't move, as if he wasn't listening to the conversation between the two at all.
Chu Ziqing came over with something and put it on the table, attracting Yun Ximian's attention, Yun Ximian glanced at the two boxes that were not small, and then glanced at Chu Ziqing: "What is this?" "Your little coffer?
"This is some of the herbs I found in the back mountain, and I picked them back thinking that my uncle might need them, but I didn't have a box for the herbs, so I had to use this to pack them." Chu Ziqing opened the box as he spoke, and the smell of medicine made Yun Ximian forget the displeasure just now for a while, and stared at the herbs in the box like a cat that had discovered something new.
Chu Ziqing took the opportunity to touch Yun Ximian's head, Yun Ximian shook his head and saw that he didn't break free, and continued to check the contents of the box, these are all good things! (Eyes glow)
Among these herbs, Yun Ximian also found two herbs that were necessary for refining the Nine Dead Soul Rejuvenation Pill, and couldn't help but sigh Chu Ziqing's good luck, even the rare herbs were picked up in piles, it was really more popular than people!
After carefully dividing the herbs, Yun Ximian remembered that he was going out, Chu Ziqing didn't know when he left, Yun Ximian took the Ruoshui sword, stepped out of the door, and met a maid who was working in the Tang family before he took a few steps, and asked, "Have you seen Chu Ziqing?" ”
The maid's eyes widened in shock, looking at Yun Ximian speechless for a long time, Yun Ximian wondered why her expression was so surprised, and looked behind her, well, isn't there anyone, so what's the matter with her expression?
The moment she turned her head, Yun Ximian felt as if something was wrong, why did she feel that her head was tight, as if she had a ponytail...... Yun Ximian stretched out his hand and touched it, and his face became ugly in an instant, and the maid only saw a gust of wind passing by, and Yun Ximian disappeared.
The maid blinked, remembering the scene she had just seen, and couldn't help but laugh.
Chu Ziqing just went to wash his hands, and when he came back, he saw Yun Ximian with his hair looking at him resentfully, and his body stiffened instantly.
Yes...... He was so involved in the play just now that he forgot to tear down the double ponytail...... Chu Ziqing glanced at Yun Ximian, who was gritting his teeth, and silently behaved.
"Chu Ziqing! When you come back, you can copy the rules a thousand times! ”
"......".
Chu Ziqing, who knew that he was at a loss, helped Yun Ximian tie his hair in a proper manner, and then was glared at again.
Uncle Shi is so good-looking even staring at people!
Suddenly, Yun Ximian, who was cold behind him, looked at the sky, isn't the weather very good, why did it suddenly turn cold?
The two changed into civilian clothes and went to the street, Yun Ximian was very interested in the stalls on the street, but Chu Ziqing was also beside her, so she had to take a look, Chu Ziqing took half a step behind her and kept following behind.
The sound of children laughing and playing, the sound of husband and wife quarreling, and the sound of hawkers hawking made Yun Ximian feel as if he had returned to the world, and he couldn't help but sigh that it was still good in the world.
"Uncle Shi, the pastry shop is right in front." Chu Ziqing reminded.
Yun Ximian retracted his thoughts, nodded and said, "It's okay to go over and take a look, and bring some back to Miss Tang." "After all, I've lived in someone's house for so long, and I can't say anything without giving some gifts.
"Okay, what does Uncle Shi like to eat, the hibiscus cake here tastes good, and the red bean mung bean cake, does Uncle Shi like it to be sweet or lighter?" Chu Ziqing obviously didn't come for the first time, so he asked very skillfully.
"Is there anything sour?" Yun Ximian asked casually.
Chu Ziqing choked for a moment, as if he didn't expect Yun Ximian to ask this question, and after thinking about it, he said, "Then Uncle Shi want to taste the plum crisp, it's very sour." "It's really sour than vinegar!
"Plum crisp?" Yun Ximian really became interested, but he didn't expect that there were a lot of tricks in this ancient pastry!
"What did the two guests like? This is our store's new Yuerong Crisp, men can strengthen their bodies when they eat it, and women can stay young forever when they eat it......" The shopkeeper chattered about the pastries when he greeted him, Yun Ximian looked at Xiao Er's mouth like a machine gun, and was curious.
How the hell could he speak so quickly without typos?
Chu Ziqing saw Yun Ximian looking at Xiao Er intently, and suddenly became unhappy, looked at Xiao Er, a trace of dark red flashed in his eyes, and disappeared in a blink of an eye, realizing that he almost couldn't control his emotions again, and frowned.
Yun Ximian listened to Xiao Er for a long time, and just wanted to reply to him, but Chu Ziqing grabbed his wrist and pulled him behind him, Yun Ximian looked at the back of Chu Ziqing's head with a confused expression, what kind of demon is this girl doing?
"Do you still have plum crisps here?" Chu Ziqing asked politely.
Xiao Er was attracted by Chu Ziqing's words, but he didn't care about Yun Ximian being suddenly pulled away, and said earnestly: "Yes, yes, how much does the son want?" ”
"Weigh a little." Chu Ziqing said.
Xiao Er took the two of them to the counter with plum cakes, and before they could say a few words, someone came in front of the door again, Xiao Er said sorry to the two, and after getting the consent, he went to receive the people outside the door.
"Uncle Shi wants to try it? Here you can try it. Chu Ziqing twisted a piece of pale green pastry with his fingertips and handed it to Yun Ximian's mouth, Yun Ximian paused, but still took a bite under Chu Ziqing's expectant gaze, the sweet and sour taste spread in his mouth, Yun Ximian's eyes lit up, and Chu Ziqing fed the rest to Yun Ximian when he saw this.
The soft lips touched his fingers, Chu Ziqing's heart jumped, and he quickly withdrew his hand.
Yun Ximian chewed a few bites, and ate the plum crisp in a few clicks, she subconsciously licked her lips, this plum crisp is delicious, but it tastes too dry without water.
Chu Ziqing's gaze moved away from Yun Ximian's lips, and he consciously picked up the plum cake with a bag, and Yun Ximian also picked up some other pastries with a bag, and then weighed and paid together.
Carrying pastries, the two walked slowly down the street, but there were always people who bumped into Yun Ximian without long eyes, and Yun Ximian felt that someone was targeting her - a question from Yun Ximian, who had already been hit by the girl for the fourth time.
"Why did they all hit me!?" Isn't the protagonist right next to her, what does the light hit her! Yun Ximian turned his head angrily to look at Chu Ziqing, but found that he didn't know when he put on the mask, and he suddenly became even more angry.
"Uncle Shi...... "The hat is for you." Chu Ziqing didn't say the next sentence in his mouth, but he was said by Yun Ximian with his head and face.
"What kind of mask do you wear in broad daylight, we didn't do anything shady, take it!" Yun Ximian said indignantly.
Looking at Yun Ximian, who was inexplicably angry, Chu Ziqing didn't dare to refute, silently took off the mask, and by the way, put the hat on Yun Ximian.
Yun Ximian watched Chu Ziqing's movements and did not stop it, raised his eyebrows, and seemed to be in a much better mood, and just as he was about to let go of his hand, he was held tightly by Chu Ziqing.
Yun Ximian was startled, and turned his head to look at Chu Ziqing: "What are you doing?" Then he struggled a few times, but he didn't struggle.
Chu Ziqing explained lightly: "Isn't Uncle Shi afraid that other girls will bump into you, they won't dare if I hold you, after all, girls are very shy." "I don't like seeing other girls doing Chu Ziqing on herself, but Uncle Shi's shyness is very cute.
"Okay......" Anyway, the two of them are big men, and it's nothing to pull hands. Yun Ximian thought, and stuffed the plum crisp in his other hand to Chu Ziqing, feeling relaxed.
Chu Ziqing took it without complaint, and took Yun Ximian's hand and walked side by side with her.
