The next day, the sky was bright.

Xu Miaoyun woke up from the bed and raised her arm to block the sunlight from the window.

Lu Zhan's house used to have so much sunshine in the morning, no wonder he got up so early every day, and he couldn't even sleep lazily.

Last night, the two laughed and played for a while, and in the end, Xu Miaoyun was defeated, and she lost her temper and begged for mercy.

In the end, Lu Zhan was lying on the edge of the bed, Xu Miaoyun wrapped the quilt tightly and slept in the corner, and the two dealt with each other all night.

Lu Zhan was not in the house at the moment, Xu Miaoyun thought to herself, he must have gone out to buy a bed.

Although Xu Miaoyun was doing most of the boiling water and cooking work during the few days he lived here, Lu Zhan would always help at the right time. Although his legs and feet are inconvenient, he doesn't need to move often for jobs such as chopping wood, lighting fires, etc., and he, a pure ancient, does much better than Xu Miaoyun. In many places, Xu Miaoyun can find that Lu Zhan knows how to live better than ordinary princes and princes, which is also one of the factors that she gradually likes him.

Xu Miaoyun sat up with the quilt in her arms, and saw that her dress had been placed at the end of the bed.

Xu Miaoyun raised her hand and took it, shook it off and looked at it, and then leaned closer to her nose and smelled it, with a faint scent of soaphorn.

When did Lu Zhan get up, even her clothes had been washed and dried?!

She didn't know that Lu Zhan had not slept all night, and she got up as soon as it was light.

After all, the beloved woman was lying beside him, covered with his daily quilt, and the little smooth hands and arms under the quilt always stretched out and hit him on the shoulder when he was almost drowsy as if exercising his willpower.

It's strange that I can fall asleep this night.

Xu Miaoyun finished washing with boiling water, and was about to start preparing breakfast, only to hear the creak of the courtyard door, Lu Zhan, who was dressed in a green shirt and a long robe, held something in his pocket in one hand and crutches in the other, and pushed the door in a grand manner.

The robe was bought for him by Xu Miaoyun a few days ago, because he had no money, so he didn't buy any too expensive fabrics, but just like that, the simple clothes were worn on Lu Zhan's body, and they were also walking hangers.

"You're back~" Xu Miaoyun said to Lu Zhan who was walking while washing rice.

"When did you get up?" Lu Zhan put the pile of things he was carrying in his hand on the stone table in the courtyard, took out a small oilcloth bag from it, and walked to Xu Miaoyun. "I don't cook today, I bought ready-made osmanthus cakes."

Lu Zhan took the basin in Xu Miaoyun's hand and put it back in the kitchen, took her hand and sat on the small table in the courtyard.

"Osmanthus cake~" Xu Miaoyun picked up a piece of cake that was still steaming and put it in her mouth, soft and glutinous and sweet, with a faint fragrance of osmanthus flowers.

"Good times, good times~"

Xu Miaoyun's impression of osmanthus cake is still in the snacks of those famous scenic spots in Suzhou. I didn't expect the real osmanthus cake to be so fragrant.

"You're too, you're too~" Xu Miaoyun stuffed the innermost piece into it, picked up another piece and handed it to Lu Zhan's mouth.

Lu Zhan didn't particularly like this kind of sweet and glutinous food, but he looked at Xu Miaoyun's bulging cheeks and the pink fingers that stretched out.

Then he swallowed the small pastry in front of him, and his lips brushed between the woman's fingers.

"Well, it's delicious." I don't know if he is talking about osmanthus cake, or the woman who continues to bow her head and eat osmanthus cake without noticing.

"Mm-hmm, it's delicious."

After the meal, the two people who were full of food and drink sat in the courtyard to bask in the sun.

Xu Miaoyun glanced at her room and hesitated, "I'll go find a carpenter and fix my bed?" ”

Lu Zhan raised his hand to untie another burden on the table, only to see that there were several tools that Xu Miaoyun couldn't understand.

"What is this?"

"This is a tool I borrowed from the carpenter's house in the west alley to make your bed."

There was indeed a carpenter in their neighborhood, and she knew this, but she knew when Lu Zhan had a good relationship with others to the point where he could borrow things.

"Then there are tools, what about the carpenter? Will you fix it? Xu Miaoyun looked at Lu Zhan suspiciously.

Lu Zhan has always been very hands-on, and the room in their house is not a complicated octagonal rocking bed, just a flat bed with a few thick wooden planks.

In the morning, he asked the carpenter for a brief lesson, and he was done.

As for why he was able to lend tools, it is also said that Xu Miaoyun went out to buy vegetables that day, and he walked around the neighborhood with nothing to do. I happened to meet the three-year-old son of the carpenter's family who was playing outside the alley and was almost abducted by someone's teeth.

So much so that Carpenter Li's family was very grateful to him. When he heard in the morning that he was going to make a bed, the carpenter immediately said that he would give him the bed that had been made at home, but he only asked for the necessary tools, and returned.

Because he had other plans in mind.

"I can try." Lu Zhan said modestly, "But..."

"But what? If you don't get it right, it's fine, I won't laugh at you, haha~" Xu Miaoyun teased him while drinking water.

"But what if there are rats in your house at night?"

"Ahem!" Speaking of this, Xu Miaoyun almost squirted out a mouthful of water, how could she forget about it.

She stood up and walked to her hut, which was only a few square meters in size, and looked around from top to bottom, feeling that everything looked like a rat's hiding place.

"Can't you buy some rat medicine?" After Xu Miaoyun finished speaking, she immediately denied her thoughts, at this time, there should be no medicine for dealing with rats.

Arsenic, crane top red, are all used to poison people.

"What then?"

Xu Miaoyun returned to Lu Zhan's side dejectedly and sat down wilted.

Could it be that he was defeated by this little mouse?

"It's better to... You're still sleeping in the same room as me. Lu Zhan repeated it silently in his heart several times before he said what he had planned last night.

"Huh?" Xu Miaoyun immediately clasped her hands to her chest and looked at the man with a straight face vigilantly, as if she had just said "The weather is good today".

Obviously, the "Three Chapters of the Covenant" was only set up last night, oh no, the "Two Chapters of the Covenant", why did you come to play hooligan again today.

Seeing the look of disdain on her face, Lu Zhan pretended not to see it, coughed lightly, and then said calmly, "This courtyard is in disrepair, I can't say how many years it has been abandoned. I saw a rat scurrying around in your house in the morning..."

"Huh? It dares to come out in broad daylight? Did you kill it? Xu Miaoyun immediately interjected.

"Uh... No. ”

Lu Zhanshen's answer may have damaged his tall image of wisdom and martial arts, but he still admitted it.

"Cut~ is also a general, even a rat can't be cured." Xu Miaoyun really pouted and mocked him.

"The animal ran into the hole, and I can't get in."

"Then if we plug the hole, won't they be able to get out?" Xu Miaoyun still wanted to struggle.

"I don't know how many holes there are in your house."

“.……”

Now there are two choices in front of Xu Miaoyun, whether to sleep with Lu Zhan or with mice?

Xu Miaoyun glanced at her small dilapidated house favored by mice, and then at the beautiful man sitting next to her calmly.

Good! I choose to sleep with mice!
