The Long Years (6)

In his life, Rong Jin has never spent such a day.

She was led by Shen Yu, saw the bright morning glow like Qiluo, the little fireflies under the stars, and also took a small boat into the depths of the lotus flower to pick water chestnuts.

In the end, I have to admit that although Shen Xiang looked unattainable later, when he was young, he must have been a very good little boy.

Maybe he was punished for it.

When she speculated with interest, Shen Yu was twisting the hem of her clothes that were wet by the lake, and when she heard this, she said slowly: "It seems that there is such a thing." ”

Rong Jin was successfully caught up in his appetite and leaned closer: "Let's hear it." ”

"There was a time in the early years, it should have been around Chongyang, when I went to the mountains to hunt, I stayed for an extra day, and I didn't care about the book that the master explained."

Shen Yu said, he laughed first, and the droplets of water on his eyelashes glistened in the sunlight.

Rong Jin looked at it intently for a while, and then he reacted, and raised his sleeve to wipe it for him: "Master just smoked your endorsement?" ”

Shen Yu gave her the lotus flower and carried the water chestnut to herself: "At that time, Mrs. Zhou was still responsible for the sacrificial wine, just in time for the sacrificial wine inspection, his old man had some friendship with my family, and personally ordered me to endorse it." ”

I wanted to give him a chance to show his face, but the result was ......

Shen Yu paused and concluded: "It's hard to say. ”

Rong Jin rarely saw him like this, biting his lip, so he didn't laugh out loud.

Shen Yu raised his hand and flicked it on her forehead, and smiled helplessly: "You like to watch me mess up." ”

He still had the lake water in his hand, Rong Jin raised his head, but he couldn't avoid it, and said with crooked eyebrows: "It's just that it sounds fresh." ”

Ever since he met Shen Yu, he always looked at ease, as if everything was under control.

It makes sense that she wanted to hear something from the side.

Shen Yu didn't know this, so he mentioned it intentionally or unintentionally, and made her smile.

Talking and laughing and returning to the courtyard, before entering the door, he saw Shang Lu sitting on the grape trellis.

He looked bored, bent his legs, and the hem of his clothes was blown by the wind, and when he saw the two of them, his eyes seemed to be a little complaining.

When he learned that he was going to live in the mountains, Shang Lu was also very interested, but before he could speak, he was sent to Baizhu by Shen Yu with a word.

But it doesn't matter.

Shang Lu turned his head and came back to his senses, this was just because he didn't want to be disturbed.

Shen Yu looked back without hiding or evading, and was confident.

Although Rong Jin didn't know why, he still subconsciously stood up straighter, shook the lotus flower in his hand and greeted Shang Lu: "Why do you look like this, who upset you?" ”

Shang Lu snorted coldly, gave Shen Yu the fold he brought with him, and explained, "Gongsun Yu sent it to me. ”

The new emperor ascended the throne, and the court and China were in ruins.

There are countless people who are busy standing in line and showing loyalty, but only Shen Yu doesn't ask about everything and goes to the mountains to hide.

Gongsun Xi is very busy these days, sleeping less than two hours a day, and his dreams are full of those who have and don't.

Seeing that Shen Xiang still had no sign of coming back, he finally couldn't hold it anymore and found Shang Lu.

This fold was handed over, with a vague urging

Meaning.

Rong Jin glanced at the thickness of the fold, and could already imagine Gongsun Xi's recent dire situation, peeling the water chestnut, and asked casually, "Do you want to go back?" ”

The days in the mountains seemed to be isolated from the world, and the lives of people were scattered, and she didn't pay attention to her life.

It wasn't until Shang Lu brought Gongsun Xi's letter that he suddenly realized.

Shen Yu slowly flipped through a few pages: "No hurry. ”

Rong Jin rolled up his sleeves, but he inevitably hesitated: "Is there really nothing in the way?" ”

Although she doesn't know much about government affairs, she also knows that this must be a time when there is a shortage of manpower, especially Shen Yu.

Gongsun Yu does have real talent and learning, but he has little experience in the end.

Shen Yu disagreed, and said slowly: "The more difficult it is, the more you can train people." He needs this kind of experience, and he can build up his prestige in the future. ”

This sounds reasonable, even well-intentioned.

Rong Jin nodded subconsciously, Shang Lu pinched a grape leaf and fanned the wind, and doubted: "Childe, you just don't want to go back, right?" ”

Shen Yu glanced at him.

Shang Lu coughed, turned around and leaned over to Rong Jin's side to talk: "Sister, what is this?" ”

He grew up in Mobei and is not familiar with many things.

"Water chestnut, let people boil porridge at night." Rong Jin gave him one after washing and peeling, and said with a smile, "It's not early, since you are here, stay and eat together." ”

She opened this mouth, and Shen Yu could only nod.

Shang Lu stayed as he wished.

Shen Yu had never been here since he returned to Beijing, and Shang Lu had naturally never seen it, so early the next morning, Rong Jin led him around to take a look.

Rong Jin responded, and looked at Shen Yu with hindsight.

Shen Yu had only read the official document brought by Shang Lu yesterday, but he still had to give Gongsun Xi some approvals, and he didn't have the time to go out.

He didn't say much about it, just buttoned her up with a sunshade hat and said, "It's hot today, sunburn carefully." ”

Shang Lu is also a fun-loving person, Rong Jin accompanied him for a long time, looked at the meal, and proposed: "The somen noodles in the Zen Temple taste good, famous far and wide, it is better to try it." ”

If it was in the past, Shang Lu would definitely respond without hesitation, and he would have gone faster than her.

But this time, for some reason, they got up.

Rong Jin paused, lifted the light veil, and looked at him with a smile: "I always feel that you are strange today, what do you think?" ”

"This ......"

When Shang Lu had a cold face, he was actually able to bluff people, but he couldn't hide anything in front of Rong Jin.

He got Shen Yu's orders, and he didn't dare to leak it in advance, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "Or, let's go back." ”

Rong Jin glanced at him, guessed that Bacheng was Shen Yu's meaning, and didn't ask any further, and returned the same way.

In the shade of green bamboo

In the small courtyard, smoke curls up.

Rong Jin became more and more confused.

As soon as I entered the courtyard gate, I smelled that something was wrong, so I followed the vague smell of burnt paste and went to the kitchen.

Then I was surprised to find that the figure who was busy with his sleeves was actually Shen Yu.

Earlier, on Chinese New Year's Eve, Shen Yu had helped grill fish, but he was probably the right cook

The stove in the house was not familiar, and it looked quite embarrassing because it couldn't control the heat after lighting the fire.

After taking a look at her, Shen Yu dusted off the flour stained on his clothes, and looked a little helpless: "It seems that I overestimated myself." ”

Rong Jin really had never seen him look like this, and he was a little at a loss for a while, and hesitated: "...... you are"

Perhaps due to various experiences in his youth, Rong Jin is meticulous to the people around him, but in his own affairs, he is always worse than he expected.

"Didn't you even pay attention to it?" Shen Yu sighed silently, took off the hat for her with his own hands, and said softly, "Today is your birthday." ”

Rong Jin was stunned.

Recently, I don't know the sun and the moon, and I pinched my fingers and calculated, only to find out that this is really the case.

Rong Jin's stunned appearance looked a little stunned, Shen Yu's eyes darkened, and he took her hand: "You gave me this hairpin back then, I think about it, I should do something for you with my own hands." ”

Rong Jin raised his head, and then realized that Shen Yu was wearing the hairpin he made for him when he was in Jiangnan.

It's just that on Shen Yu's birthday, she is no longer there.

This hairpin was delivered to him by Bai Rui on his behalf.

"That's why Shang Lu lured me out?" Rong Jin blinked, looked around, and chuckled softly, "I'd better do it myself." ”

Although she hadn't cooked for a while, she was more skilled than Shen Yu.

Shen Yu stopped her and said stubbornly: "There is no such reason. ”

As he spoke, he invited her to sit on a small stool beside her, and poured her another cup of tea: "You guide me, okay?" ”

Rong Jin held his cheeks, pursed his lips and smiled: "Okay." ”

For people who often go to the kitchen, a bowl of longevity noodles is not a difficult task, but for Shen Yu, it may be more difficult than arranging troops.

He was busy, but Rong Jin was overjoyed.

After tossing back and forth for a long time, the meal had long passed, and the longevity noodles were finally out of the pot.

Although the process was a bit embarrassing, the final product was decent.

Shen Yu handed her the chopsticks: "Taste it." ”

The mellow mushroom soup is decorated with green shallots and green vegetables, which is pleasing to the eye. Although the taste is not very good, it is quite good for novices who are returning to cooking.

Since his mother's death, Rong Jin has not been worried about his birthday.

If you happen to remember, you will cook yourself a bowl of clear soup noodles, but if you are busy doing other things and forget, it will be over.

Rong Jin knew that he would do these things himself in order to make himself happy.

It's something to be happy about.

But it seems to be smoked by hot steam, and it is inexplicably a little pantothenic.

She lowered her eyelashes and concentrated on eating noodles, Shen Yu accompanied her, and said, "I instructed Cheng Ying to go to Qinglu to pick up people, and later, Xiaoqi should be there." ”

Rong Jin was stunned, full of surprise.

Even if Shen Yu didn't make it clear, he had always wanted to monopolize her, even if it was Rong Qi's own sister, it was an eyesore.

This seemingly isolated day in the mountains is, in a sense, what he wants most.

This is an unusual move.

The surprise in Rong Jin's eyes was too obvious, and Shen Yu chuckled

, wiping the fine sweat from her forehead: "I just thought, you should miss her." ”

She has very few concerns in this world, and Rong Qi is one of them that cannot be separated.

On a day like my birthday, I should still be there.

As Shen Yu said, in the afternoon, Cheng Ying sent people.

As soon as Rong Qi came, he rushed over and hugged him, and gave the sachet he had prepared: "Here is the herbal recipe I prepared, and I have also asked the master to read it, it has the effect of clearing the heart and helping you sleep." Carry it with you or tie it to your bed. ”

"It's getting better and better."

Rong Jin rubbed her sideburns, and immediately untied the sachet she was wearing and replaced it with a new one.

The two sisters hadn't seen each other for more than a month, and they couldn't finish talking, so they sat down under the rose stand in the courtyard, drinking tea and chatting.

Shen Yu was alone in the room and finished writing the reply to Gongsun Xi.

Listening to the faint laughter, he looked through the window for a while idlely, got up, and sent a plate of melons and fruits.

Rong Qi was originally snuggled up to her own sister, but when she caught a glimpse of the corner of her white clothes, she involuntarily sat up straighter and smiled.

After seeing the cut melons and fruits and washed grapes on the plate, I choked.

Rong Qi and Shen Yu are really not familiar with each other, although they have had the old thing of "grilled fish", it is still difficult to imagine that Shen Xiang in the market is acting like this.

"Thank you......" Rong Qi thanked him, but still didn't know what to call him.

is called "Shen Xiang", which seems to be too rusty, but what is next to it does not seem to be appropriate.

I had to look at Sister A as if asking for help.

Rong Jin's eyes fell on Shen Yu, and he smiled slyly: "Although it is a little early, it is not wrong for you to call 'brother-in-law'." ”

Shen Yu was already about to leave, but when he heard this, he froze in place.

The hands under the sleeves clenched helplessly.

Rong Qi understood, nodded, and said to Shen Yu solemnly: "Thank you, brother-in-law." ”

"No, it's okay."

Shen Yu stumbled before he finally reacted, his clenched hand slowly loosened, the corners of his lips curled, and he smiled brightly.

He had never felt that Rong Qi was so pleasing to the eye, and his gaze had never been so sincere.

Rong Jin hooked Shen Yu's sleeve and shook it gently, motioned for him to lean over, and said softly: "It's just that I haven't thought about what kind of wedding dress to embroider...... You help me draw. ”

Shen Yu deserved no hesitation, but was afraid that she would regret it: "Okay." ”！
