Early the next morning.

Shang Qing rubbed his sleepy eyes, pushed open the door, as if there was the sound of Lang Lang's book lingering in his ears, "Heaven and earth are yellow, and the universe is desolate." The sun and the moon are shining, and the sun and moon are shining. The cold comes and the summer comes, and the autumn harvest and the winter hide ......"

The voice was neat and childish.

Shang Qing was stunned and walked slowly into the courtyard,

This feeling is very mysterious, it seems that there is an invisible fluctuation in the dark, affecting one's five senses, and after a long time, a feeling of coolness like a spring is born in the spring acupoint.

Shang Qing's mind was immersed, and he was engrossed in experiencing this feeling, and the "Ancient Innocent Breathing and Breathing Method" involuntarily began to operate.

The immature voice sounded again, skillfully reciting an article: "During the autumn equinox, the weather is urgent, the earth is bright, lie down early and get up early, and the chickens are happy, so that the will is peaceful, and the autumn punishment is delayed, and the ......spirit is restrained."

Shang Qing looked up, the sun was shining in the clouds, and through a trace of reddish glow, it was full of brilliance and moving.

Shang Qing still clearly remembers that in the private school called "Lotus Garden" next door, there is a tortuous stone road in the courtyard, which is not long, but in the middle of the road, it is paved with small stones with edges and corners, and there is a small stone tablet standing next to it, which is engraved with eight block characters of "A journey of a thousand miles, starting from a single step".

The eight regular characters on the stele are rich and full, dignified and majestic, and the gentleman in the private school said that it is from the handwriting of Liu Zhenqing, a calligrapher.

Shang Qing was not interested in the stele, nor was he interested in the words on the stele, but he was eager to try the road paved with small stones, and immediately stepped on it with bare feet, curiously, and just walked two steps, he screamed in pain.

Since then, I have never set foot in a private school.

At the end of the stone road, there is a small pavilion called "Lotus Pavilion", there is a painting painted on the central pillar, there is a mountain in the painting, there is a temple on the mountain, there is only one back in the temple, it is a meditating monk, there is a green lantern with a flickering lamp beside him, and there are several volumes of scriptures under the lamp.

Shang Qing practiced in the courtyard, and then washed up a little, then walked to the east kitchen, opened the east kitchen door, and the decoration pattern in the house was simple and luxurious.

The stove, stove, kitchen cabinets, cabinets, cabinets, etc. are readily available in the house, the rosewood carved lacquer plum blossom kitchen cabinet, there are dozens of blue and white glazed porcelain bowls, and white glazed flower mouth plates, several silver gilt cloud dragon pattern chopsticks are placed in each of the more than a dozen pairs of silver chopsticks, bamboo chopsticks, pot sauce Zhen, cereals, flour, two or three types of fat, sesame oil, coarse salt, refined salt, etc., neatly placed in layers.

There are many kitchen utensils placed on the stove, including bronze wok ding, zhengding and shame ding; iron gluttonous pattern; There are also stalks, retorts, pottery mustaches, retorts, iron pots, steaming drawers, etc.

Shang Qing plans to make a little more simple according to some of the ingredients available in the house. If there are dried lotus seeds, I boiled a lotus porridge and fried bacon. With the smoke curling from the cooking, after a period of busyness, the house suddenly smelled fragrant.

Shang Xiaoxiao had already woken up at this time, her limbs were sore and numb, and she slowly moved her hands and feet.

Suddenly smelling the fragrance from the East Kitchen, he trotted to the kitchen with curiosity.

The girl was dressed in a plain mopping smoke cage chrysanthemum pleated skirt, covered with moon satin sleeves magnolia flying butterfly shoulders, lined with milky white mixed with pink wrap chest, and her jet-black hair was gently pulled up, and the snow-white coat had not yet been taken off.

"Get up, try the lotus porridge I boiled, and the fried bacon." Shang Qing saw it and hurriedly greeted him.

Uncle Xu also smelled the fragrance and came outside the kitchen, frowning and said, "Young master, the book says 'gentlemen are far away from cooking', what are you doing?" ”

Shang Qing smiled, didn't care, and corrected: "Uncle Xu, what the book says is 'A gentleman is a beast, and when he sees his life, he can't bear to see his death; Hearing its voice, I can't bear to eat its flesh. It is a gentleman who cooks far away. ’”

When he saw Uncle Xu, who wanted to speak and stopped, he interrupted:

"I don't read much, and the truth in the book is the business of the masters, but as for how to do it, it is outside the book. Don't be stunned, take a hand, and eat. ”

Shang Qing was in charge of serving porridge, Xu Bo was serving fried bacon, and Shang Xiaoxiao took the initiative to get dishes and chopsticks, and the three of them quickly sat around the stone table in the courtyard.

Shang Qing asked while serving porridge, "What about Xiuxiu?" Still sleeping? ”

The girl leaned in and sniffed.

[Hmm, it's so fragrant!] 】

Immediately, my appetite increased greatly, and I couldn't wait to start eating.

"Xiuxiu is still young, she was tired of crying last night, she will still lie in bed and refuse to get up, what a little lazy worm." Xu Bo's face was kind, and he had treated the little girl as a granddaughter in his heart.

"Well, then let's eat it first, and then we'll make it for her alone when she wakes up!"

Before the words fell, the girl had already eaten!

[Hmm, it's delicious! 】

I couldn't help but reddened my eyes as I ate.

"What's the matter, are you moved by your brother's craftsmanship?" Shang Qing's quipping tone was filled with concern.

The girl ignored him and drank porridge and ate meat to herself.

"Bang-bang, bang."

There was a knock on the door outside.

Xu Bo got up to open the door, but it was Dian Kui, Meng Huai'an, Dongfang Xi and Lu Cheng who came together.

A few people had already come last night, and they had come with a heavy heart to tell him the bad news of the disappearance of his family member Shang Qing, but they were surprised to learn that Shang Qing was already at home, and a few people entered the house to see, good boy, sleeping soundly, but Dongfang Xi felt that he slept like a pig.

Dongfang Xi was still angry at this time, and when he saw this, he directly snatched Shang Qing's bowl, did not dislike it at all, and ate it unceremoniously.

Shang Qing was immediately embarrassed, but he didn't say anything, and instead asked politely to the three of them: "Brother Dian, Master Meng, Brother Lu, have you eaten?" Would you like to drink some porridge? ”

The three of them nodded in unison: "Okay." ”

When the girl heard this, she looked at the porridge on the table vigilantly, and suddenly sped up by two points.

Shang Qing was stunned, good guy, you're not welcome at all!

I had to turn around and get three pairs of chopsticks, and one bowl per person.

Pawn Kui took three bites and made one bite, and ate a bowl in two clicks, and added another bowl.

The girl's speed increased by two points again, and she hurriedly filled her bowl with some more

Xu Bo bent his waist and stood aside, with a smile in his eyes, he could see that several people were intersecting with his young master from the heart.

The four of them ate porridge and meat unsatisfied, and Dongfang Xi muttered: "I'm not full, I'll come back tomorrow." ”

Shang Qing didn't hear it.

Xu Bo began to clean up, and the girl turned around and went back to the house.

Dongfang Xi walked a few steps around Shang Qing, constantly shaking his head and sighing.

"Third brother, what are you doing?" Shang Qing asked puzzled.

"It's said that it is a scourge for a thousand years, but I found out, could it be that the eldest brother is also a scourge? Alas, my heart is bitter! Dongfang Xi's expression was very exaggerated.

Dian Kui smiled and corrected him: "Brother Dongfang, you are not right, in my opinion, he can live longer than the scourge!" ”

Shang Qing was cold, pinched a strange voice and said, "Who are you?" Dare to break into a private house, rob my porridge, and give money! There is no ten, two, twenty, or two, and this matter cannot be solved! ”
