Chapter 120
Chinese New Year's Eve is a rare day of good weather.
Rong Jin rarely had leisure, and as soon as he took out the needle and thread, he was invited by Rong Qi to Luxue Pavilion, saying that he wanted to grill fish.
Luxue Pavilion is not far from the Water Pavilion, across a winding bamboo bridge.
Rong Jin was pulled by her sleeve and followed slowly, doubting the letter: "You? ”
The meaning of the joke was too obvious, Rong Qi blushed, and swore solemnly: "Sister, my cooking skills are much better than before, you just wait to eat." ”
The attendants have prepared charcoal fires, iron frames and other things, the fatty fresh fish has also been disemboweled, and the stone table next to it is even more full of spices and sauces.
Rong Qi refused to ask others for help, so she rolled up her sleeves and did it herself.
Seeing that she was so positive, Rong Jin didn't care too much, took a cup of hot tea, and tasted it slowly.
But it is not easy to master the heat, and if you are not careful, it will either not be evenly baked, or it will be burned black, and it will be difficult to eat.
It didn't take long for Rong Qi's white and tender face to have a few more black charcoal marks, like a cat, and the air was filled with a vague smell of burning.
She no longer had the ambition she had at the beginning, fiddling with the charcoal fire, her cheeks bulging.
Rong Jin bit his lip and forced a smile, and was about to put aside the teacup to help, but he heard a familiar voice behind him: "Is this here?" ”
She looked back in surprise and wondered, "Why did you come back at this hour?" ”
Every time Shen Yu returned home, he had already lit the lamp, and it was rare to see him in the blue sky and daylight.
"According to the old practice, you can have half a day off on Chinese New Year's Eve." Shen Yu sat beside her and said with a smile, "Didn't I mention it to you yesterday?" ”
Rong Jin licked the corners of his lips, and then remembered that there seemed to be such a thing.
But it wasn't yesterday, it was last night, she was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes, and naturally she went in and out of her left ear and out of her right ear.
As he spoke, the smoke became thicker, and at first glance it looked like he was walking in the water, so that the long wind in the distance couldn't help but come over and ask.
Rong Qi finally accepted his fate, put down the fire fork in frustration, and looked at Rong Jin with a blank eye.
Rong Jin's cooking skills have always been good, grilling a fish is naturally not a problem, she handed over the handkerchief that had been prepared a long time ago, and was about to take over, but Shen Yu took the lead.
"Huh?" Rong Qi's eyes widened, and he looked at Shen Yu in disbelief, always feeling that this pampered Lord Shen might not be as good as himself.
Just stammering, not knowing what to say.
She is not a heartless little girl earlier, these days she has been living in another courtyard temporarily, and she has long seen that her sister has an unusual relationship with him, but after thinking about it, she still hasn't figured out what to call this person.
Rong Jin didn't have any scruples, and asked with a smile: "Are you successful?" Don't spoil the rest of the fish. ”
"Don't worry, I often follow the ...... when I am young," Shen Yu paused, and wrote lightly, "It's just to go hunting in the mountains and grill a fish." ”
Later, when the army marched and fought, it was indispensable to do it yourself.
Although I haven't done it myself for a long time, it is inevitable that it will be rusty, but it is quite disciplined.
The minced spices were sprinkled on the tender fish, and the aroma was overflowing, so Rong Qicai wiped his cheeks and stepped forward to look at it with great interest.
The warm sunlight sprinkled on his body, Rong Jin held his cheeks and looked at it with a smile.
For a moment, she suddenly realized that if she could live like this forever, it seemed that it would be good.
Although Rong Qi watched from a close distance, the first grilled fish was sent to Rong Jin's lips by Shen Yu: "Taste my craftsmanship?" ”
Rong Jin caught a glimpse of the dust on his sleeves that he didn't know when, brushed it away, and then took it.
It's a little hot, but the taste is just right.
The deliciousness of the fish itself complements the spices of the mixture, leaving a fragrant taste on the lips and teeth.
Shen Yu lifted the hem of his clothes and half-squatted in front of her casually, Rong Jin saw that his heart moved, and he could vaguely imagine the situation when he was young and went hunting in the mountains with General Xiao.
Drink the water of the stream and scorch the game.
It should be full of youthful spirit.
Shen Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked knowingly, "How?" ”
"Not bad," Rong Jin came back to his senses and quipped, "If you fall down one day, set up a stall and can support yourself if you want to come." ”
Rong Qi couldn't hold back her laughter, and only then did she realize the subtlety of the atmosphere.
She hesitated for a moment, decisively decided not to mix blindly here, and coughed: "Sister, I suddenly remembered that there was something else to ......."
As for what was going on, she paused again and again, but she didn't think of it.
Rong Jin couldn't cry or laugh, but Shen Yu was kind and pleasant, and put the whole fish that had just been grilled in the food box, so that Changfeng sent the people away.
There are only two people left in the Luxue Pavilion.
Shen Yu fiddled with the charcoal fire, his posture was lazy, and he was a little more comfortable than before.
Rong Jin looked at him thoughtfully: "If you look at me like this every day, aren't you afraid that you will be bored one day?" ”
"No, it won't." Shen Yu did not hesitate.
Rong Jin felt that this was not good, but before he could understand the emotion and reason, he was cut off by his neat answer.
was stunned, and waved his hand again: "That's it." ”
Horizontal and vertical is not a matter of principle, he can do whatever he wants.
But Rong Jin really couldn't split himself in half, so the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in the evening still had to be gathered in one place.
Rong Qi tugged at her sister's sleeve and sprinkled Jiao for a while, and finally begged for a glass of sweet wine, and after drinking it, there were more words.
She leaned on Rong Jin's shoulder and chatted about some old things.
In comparison, Shen Yu is like an outsider who is difficult to blend into.
He didn't speak, just listened quietly.
Rong Jin sensed the subtlety of it, filled a bowl of acacia soup, and placed it in front of him.
Just lowered her hand, and was hooked by Shen Yu's sleeves without a trace, and her slightly cool fingers climbed up her wrist inch by inch like a small snake.
Unfold her slightly curled palms and clasp her fingers together.
Because of years of martial arts and archery, his fingertips are covered with a thin layer of calluses, gently caressing them, bringing an indescribable touch.
Rong Jin glanced at him deeply, and then said to Rong Qi on the other side: "If you are sleepy, go back and rest." ”
Rong Qi covered her lips and yawned: "You still have to keep the New Year." ”
"Since I was a child, what year have I survived?" Rong Jin shook his head and smiled, got up and said, "Let's go, I'll send you back." ”
Rong Qi was so sleepy that her eyelids were fighting, she didn't insist anymore, and she fell asleep not long after returning to her residence.
Rong Jin returned to his room, and sure enough, he saw Shen Yu waiting.
She thought that Shen Yu should be in a bad mood, and was thinking about how to appease him, and after lighting the candle, she found that his expression was quite peaceful.
Xu is surprise was too obvious, Shen Yu was stunned for a moment, and then chuckled after reacting.
Seeing this, Rong Jin no longer shy away from it: "I thought it would take a lot of effort to coax you tonight." ”
The word "coaxing", except for her, I am afraid that no one dares to use it on Shen Yu.
Shen Yu propped his forehead, and his words were unknown: "I figured it out." ”
"What?"
Shen Yu smiled and said nothing.
Rong Jin was whetted by him, and asked again and again before he finally got the answer.
It was the middle of the night, and fireworks were lit in the imperial city, which was extremely bright and fleeting.
Shen Yu leaned over and kissed her, his voice vague but determined: "The person who can be with you for a lifetime and go to the end will be me, and only me." ”
As Rong Qi gets older, he will meet his sweetheart one day, and he will marry a wife and have his own family. Even if she is a biological sister, she can't stay with her for a long time.
But he would.
Until old age, until death.
"Wait for this matter, the dust will settle," Shen Yu asked her with a smile as the fireworks reflected in his eyes, "Would you marry me?" ”!
