Ru Xiaonan washed the lotus leaves, then put the glutinous rice and pork ribs in the middle of the lotus leaves, carefully wrapped them and put them in the steamer with the seal facing down.

The living room had been quiet all the time, and at first she was worried that the Mu clan patriarch would come to trouble Qing Moyan because of the destruction of the trapped demon mirror.

But judging from the patriarch's attitude just now, the other party seemed to be here to apologize.

The steamer has been steaming for two hours before the aroma comes out.

When Ru Xiaonan brought out the fragrant lotus fragrant glutinous rice pork rib bun, the stupid dog excitedly swung her big tongue around her back and forth.

"You can't steal your mouth first. Otherwise, Qing Moyan would have found out. Ru Xiaonan admonished.

The stupid dog retracted his tongue in fright.

After cooking the potato soup, Ru Xiaonan ran to the living room.

It's been so long, and they haven't finished speaking?

Ru Xiaonan leaned her ears against the crack of the 'door'.

Why is there no sound?

The stupid dog followed her example and also put his dog ears on the 'door'.

Suddenly, the 'door' was pulled open from the inside.

A man and a dog are awkwardly presented in front of everyone in a eavesdropping posture.

The Gu King's scorpion tail easily opened the 'door' handle and retracted into the shadow behind Qing Moyan.

Ru Xiaonan smiled wryly, "Qingmoyan, the meal is ready." ”

There was a hint of a smile on the corner of Qing Moyan's mouth, "What delicious did you make?"

"Lotus fragrant glutinous rice pork rib buns!" Ru Xiaonan said proudly, and suddenly she looked at the people of the Mu family as if she remembered something.

"Oops, I forgot, there are still guests...... I only did my share with you. ”

Qing Moyan ignored the guests of the Mu Low family and stood up, "It's okay, anyway, we've already finished talking, and they'll be going back soon." ”

Ru Xiaonan said "oh", "Then I'll go serve dinner." ”

"The weather is good, let's eat in the courtyard. A green voice came from behind him, faintly smiling.

"Great!"

Looking at Ru Xiaonan's cheerful back, the patriarch of the Mu clan could only stand up hard.

"In that case, we've decided, we'll send a car to pick you up tomorrow, right?"

"Not tomorrow. Qing Moyan shook his head, "I still have something to do here." ”

"That'...... The day after tomorrow?"

Qing Moyan nodded, and then didn't say hello to the others, and left first.

The middle-aged man leaned over to the side of the Mu clan patriarch, "Father, can this person really do it?" His identity ......"

The old man glanced at his son disdainfully, "Otherwise, what else, the trapped demon mirror has been broken." Monsters are rampant, just how many monsters you can clear, and if you drag on like this, the whole city will be destroyed, and the more people die, the greater the opinion of us from above, and then I am afraid that they will also sue the sky and the moon. At that time, you had no place to cry!"

The middle-aged man was reprimanded and could only listen to it.

"Shall we go back now or ......?"

"Go back, or you'll be waiting for someone to invite you to dinner!" the old man became angry, and every word he spoke was very rushed.

There was a table under the big tree in the courtyard, and Qing Moyan sat there in a rare leisurely manner watching Ru Xiaonan busy before and after.

"Woo woo woo ......" The stupid dog shrank under the table, his eyes shining, staring at Qing Moyan.

Ru Xiaonan smiled and brought a food bowl over, "Your one is here." ”

She put the bowl down, and the rice mixed with the 'meat' broth was fragrant, and the soup base with some minced 'meat' and vegetables was sprinkled on top.

As a 'yin' soldier, the stupid dog can actually not eat at all, but it is different from the thousand dead, and it does not refuse to come to all kinds of delicacies.

"Be careful. Ru Xiaonan kindly reminded.

The stupid dog was still burned, and he snorted back and forth around the food bowl, and was very anxious.

Ru Xiaonan was afraid that Qing Moyan would dislike the stupid dog. hurriedly and diligently served him vegetables.

Qing Moyan glanced at the stupid dog under the table and said nothing.

Ru Xiaonan faintly felt a little strange, as if she had been in her world since she arrived. Qing Moyan is no longer as harsh on the stupid dog as before, and sometimes she can tolerate it swinging around, or playing with her.

Qing Moyan sandwiched a pair of sticky rice. Tasted it.

"Well done. ”

The villain in front of him immediately smiled, and his face seemed to be about to bloom.

"It's delicious, isn't it? I learned from recipes, so I don't think I'm that stupid. ”

"Who said you were stupid. Qing Moyan smiled at her.

Ru Xiaonan also sat down to eat.

"By the way, their car...... How much do you want us to lose?" suddenly remembered this. Ru Xiaonan's mood instantly slipped into a trough.

"Eat your meal, what do you do with all this?"

"Well, I heard that their rich people's cars are worth millions. Ru Xiaonan had a bitter face.

"It's a lot of money. Qingmo Yan came quietly. Seeing Ru Xiaonan's face fall, he followed again: "So I promised to help them and paid for the car." ”

"Help them?" Ru Xiaonan looked at him blankly. "Help them with what?"

"Eliminate the monsters. Qing Moyan buried his head in eating while explaining to her, "There are too many demons that have escaped from the trapped demon mirror, and their family can't clean it up for a while, and the government has put pressure on them." ”

Ru Xiaonan looked at Qing Moyan blankly, "Why doesn't it seem that anything is difficult for you?"

Qing Moyan's hand holding chopsticks paused.

"It's not that everything is difficult......

When she disappeared in front of him, he felt that even if the sky fell, it would be nothing more than that.

It was the first time in his life that he felt powerless.

No matter how strong his power is, no matter how great his power is. Nor can it be reversed, so that his beloved will return to him.

So he would rather choose to wait in solitude.

At least that way, he still has a hope.

"You know that in the Night Summer Kingdom, it was the Fifth Highness who inherited the throne in the end. Qing Moyan had told her about some of the things that happened in the Xia Kingdom after she disappeared.

"Yes, you also said that Chang Hate became a queen. ”

"The emperor finally gave me the edict of enthronement, but the name on the edict was empty, at that time he told me that he had been the emperor all his life, and he only had this country in his heart, so he missed a lot of things, but he never regretted it, but there was only one thing that he felt regretful. ”

Ru Xiaonan knew that the regret that the emperor was referring to was Qing Moyan's mother.

The emperor did not keep the only 'woman' he ever loved, nor did he protect her. Because he is a good emperor, he failed in love.

"The emperor gave me the edict, and he had only one request for me at that time, that is, it was up to me to decide who would be the new emperor, but. The only thing is that my name can't be written on it. ”

"The emperor doesn't want you to be the new emperor?" Ru Xiaonan was puzzled.

"Yes, because he told me that this position is so lonely...... The Five Princes already have a long-term hatred around him, as long as he is determined, he will not follow his old path again, but I am different from the Five Princes, at that time you are no longer there, and the country falls into my hands, which will only lead to its ruin. ”

Because at that time, he didn't care about anything anymore.

A fragrant piece of ribs was handed to his mouth, pulling him out of his momentary trance.

Ru Xiaonan smiled and stretched out her chopsticks, "Qingmoyan, I don't regret it, even if I die at that time and can't return to this world, I will not hesitate to choose that." ”

She fed the ribs into Qing Moyan's mouth.

Qing Moyan bit down with the chopsticks head, did not let go, and squeezed out two words from between his teeth: "Fool." ”

Ru Xiaonan was still smiling, "Because I like you, I like you more than I like myself." ”

The summer sun shines down from the treetops and spills over the yard.

The years are quiet, nothing more than this.
