Chapter 22: The Feast
Feel the breath of the other person. This made Xie Wanjun quite nervous, and the snow-white skin on her neck was also dyed a faint pink.
Unexpectedly, under the soft moonlight, Su Qing actually pulled up Xie Wanjun this night, and the fragrance wafting from the Su family's kitchen spread throughout half the village. The greedy children shouted for meat, but after being reprimanded by the adults, they finally quieted down.
The sunset is fading, and the moon has not yet come out. But the star of enlightenment in the sky has already shimmered, reflecting the dead night.
The Su family was brightly lit at this time, the cooking smoke faded, and the last dish was served on the table. On weekdays, Zhao is not necessarily hungry, but today he is the first to eat at the table.
"Wow, it smells so good!" Zhao sucked the fragrance of the vegetables, picked up the chopsticks and started eating.
Mrs. Su was obviously also very happy, and she scalded a pot of thin wine for Su Qing. Su Qing is not an alcoholic, and thin wine is the most suitable for him.
Taking a sip of thin wine, Su Qing actually felt a little lonely today. There is no noise at the dinner table, but the sound of the clattering of dishes and chopsticks can be heard.
All kinds of dishes on the dinner table were made with wild boars brought back by Su Qing and Xie Wanjun. Su Qing tasted it himself and found that it was indeed delicious. Especially a stir-fried wild boar, Su Qing had just put off the chopsticks, and Zhao's chopsticks had already reached into it several times.
At this time, Su Qing found out. It turned out that the Zhao family didn't have the noisy shouting in the past, and focused on eating, so the dinner table was a little quiet.
But what seems to be missing?
"By the way, what about Wanjun?" Old Lady Su asked suspiciously.
Yes, Su Qing put down the wine glass steadily. I glanced out, and I was also puzzled in my heart.
"Why don't you go find your daughter-in-law and call her to eat!" Old Madam Su pointed out the door and told him to get up.
"Yes, I'll go." Su Qing replied respectfully, stood up and tidied up his robe, and strode out to find Xie Wanjun.
Just as Su Qing turned to leave, the Zhao family, who was immersed in eating, heard the conversation between their mother and son. When Xie Wanjun was mentioned, Zhao's face showed obvious disgust.
After swallowing a mouthful of food, he put another chopstick into his mouth. Faced with the temptation of food, she no longer considered Xie Wanjun.
By the time Su Qing stepped out of the door, the moonlight had already lit up. The clouds covered the night, but they were not heavy, but under the light of the moon. The transparent thin clouds add a bit of beauty to the night.
There was no Xie Wanjun in the four places, just when Su Qing was about to go back to the dining room to check if Xie Wanjun had returned. He froze suddenly, and after standing for a while. Su Qing picked up the hem of his robe and turned his steps.
Under the moonlight, the figure of a tall and sturdy man gradually approached a delicate woman. And the woman has her back to the man, leaning over and busy with something.
Gradually, Xie Wanjun clearly felt that the light in front of her had dimmed. Just as he was about to look back to check the situation, he crashed into a warm embrace.
The man's hard chest wrapped around Xie Wanjun's figure, and the characteristic green rosin fragrance on his body entered his nose. A familiar magnetic voice sounded, "What are you doing?" ”
"I ...... I'm growing mushrooms. Xie Wanjun replied.
The distance between the two was too close, and the hand that could be felt between breaths was placed in the palm of his hand. His big hand wrapped Xie Wanjun's delicate Rouyi, and gently said next to Xie Wanjun's cheek, "Don't worry, mushrooms will be planted successfully." ”
"How do you know?" Xie Wanjun's eyes widened, stared directly at Su Qing, and asked.
In the night, the brightest thing is Xie Wanjun's bright eyes. Su Qing's heart trembled slightly, and he replied softly, "I just know, I believe in you, the ancients, those who have aspirations, things can be done!" ”
"Well, I also firmly believe that I can do a little," Xie Wanjun smiled, and the undisguised joy touched the hearts of others the most.
may be for this reason, looking at Xie Wanjun's exposed teeth. Su Qing also laughed, and after a moment, he asked, "So, can you go back to dinner with me now?" ”
Hearing this, Xie Wanjun deliberately raised her eyebrows and made a thinking gesture. After a moment, he said, "Of course." ”
"Let's go," Su Qing stretched out a hand so that Xie Wanjun could hold on.
The moonlight was just right, the breeze was not dry, and the two went away hand in hand. Just looking at their backs, they have the meaning of fairy couples.
Gradually, I approached the dining table, and through the faint light from inside. Xie Wanjun tidied up her clothes before she called out to Mrs. Su with a smile, "Mother." ”
"Hey, I'm back, come and eat." Mrs. Su hurriedly added food to Xie Wanjun, and personally picked up the dishes for her.
instructed Xie Wanjun, "Hurry up and eat, eat more!" ”
"Hey, thank you, mother." Xie Wanjun replied with a gentle smile, burying her head in the rice.
Seeing that Xie Wanjun also ate very deliciously, Mrs. Su's face also showed a smile of relief. praised Xie Wanjun vigorously, "You are amazing, you are busy planting mushrooms, and today you are fighting wild boars with Su Qing, you have worked hard." ”
"It's okay, it's okay, mother, it's all the duty of a daughter-in-law." Xie Wanjun hurriedly replied.
In the face of Mrs. Su's praise, Xie Wanjun was a little nervous, and at the same time a little embarrassed.
But, unlike her. Facing Mrs. Su's praise for Xie Wanjun, Zhao was a little apprehensive. Without a good tone, he muttered, "Hmph, what else can she grow, what a joke." ”
She said this without avoiding anyone. Everyone heard this, especially Su Qing, whose face darkened significantly.
However, Zhao Shi had already muttered, "It's a shame that you still believe it, she is just trying to avoid picking mushrooms and wants to be lazy, and she will know when the time comes." ”
"Enough," Su Qing shouted, "The eldest sister-in-law and eldest brother are here, and the mother-in-law is also there. ”
Su Qing, who had always been mild-mannered, suddenly broke out, which frightened the Zhao family. She trembled and did not dare to speak again.
She peeked at Su Qing's expression through the bowl, but she didn't dare to look at it. Then, he turned to look at Mrs. Su's expression. Finding that they didn't pay much attention to themselves, Zhao was a little depressed. At this dinner, Zhao really didn't say anything more. Xie Wanjun also took care of the rest, she ate the rice in her bowl well.
After dinner, the two went back to the house to rest. Xu was tired after a day's work, and Xie Wanjun fell into a deep sleep early. Maybe it's because she has experienced too many things during the day, and Xie Wanjun's dreams are also strange.
In the middle of the night, there was not a sound in the four corners. Xie Wanjun turned over lazily, and a word popped out of her mouth. I couldn't really hear it, but the next string of laughter was really clear.
Because in the dream, Xie Wanjun actually found that the mushrooms she planted had grown to the height of a tree. All the mushrooms gathered together and grew into a forest.
