Chapter 145: Tossing and turning
(In the chapter added later, the chapter title will not be changed until the editor goes to work tomorrow.) )
That night, Ren Baqian tossed and turned on the bed, and there was always a figure in his mind, running around there, and finally running to his heart and staying.
At the same time, the empress was lying on the soft bed downstairs, and she was always unable to sleep peacefully, and sighed faintly from time to time.
In the past two days, my heart has become more and more chaotic, and I have become more and more uncalm.
After a moment, I got up from the bed, opened the curtains and looked out at the tall buildings, the sporadic lights, and the white under the moonlight.
A house has two floors, and two people are thinking about their own thoughts.
Early the next morning, the empress was still a little unaccustomed to getting up, no one fetched water for herself, no one changed her clothes, and the position she was in was not the empty palace.
Just when she was thinking like this, Ren Baqian knocked on the door: "Qi Zixiao, it's time to get up." ”
A moment later, when the empress pushed open the door, Ren Baqian was already in the kitchen making breakfast, porridge, fried eggs, chicken cakes, and vegetable salad, which he was preparing for breakfast, all of which were prepared last night.
"Wait a minute. Ren Baqian turned his head and smiled at her, adjusted the time of the induction cooker, and walked to the living room to turn on the TV to tune up the morning news.
"You can watch TV for a while. Ren Baqian said.
The empress nodded, sat on the sofa and watched the morning news, turning her head from time to time to look at Ren Baqian, who was busy there, and then turning her head to look at TV.
The house was very small in her eyes, and five or six together were not as big as the Heart Cultivation Palace. Not to mention the entire palace.
But this morning made her feel a different kind of warmth.
Ren Baqian finished breakfast, turned his head to look at the empress sitting on the sofa, the sun shining into the room, and felt in a good mood.
Neither of them spoke for breakfast, and a warm atmosphere surrounded them.
It was a very special experience for both of them.
After eating, Ren Baqian put away the dishes and chopsticks and walked out of the kitchen, and found that the empress was watching a talent show.
"What are they doing?" asked the empress, somewhat puzzled.
I couldn't read what was written, but I could understand it.
"Draft, show talent. ”
"What's the use of the state?"
"You don't have to do anything to be useful. Eating, dressing, shopping, sheltering, this is all material civilization. And in addition to material civilization, there is also spiritual civilization.
When people are well fed and clothed, they will feel spiritually empty and will want more things to fill their souls.
Singing, dancing, acting, even reading, studying, this is to satisfy spiritual needs and bring pleasure to people. Ren Baqian explained.
"Although the ancient people are strong, they also have to work hard to survive, and everyone has only these in their hearts. The empress said.
"That's the difference between the two worlds. Only after the material civilization is satisfied, will the spiritual civilization be needed. Ren Baqian sat not far from the empress.
"What do you want to see today?"
"There are so many things I want to see, and I want to see them in all aspects. The Empress turned her head to look at him and said.
"Then I'll take you outside to have a look, and let's go in and have a look at the places you are interested in. Ren Baqian said with a smile.
"Good. ”
It was late yesterday, and although there were various lights, it was a different way to see the scenery during the day. Many people were waiting on both sides of the bus in very thick clothes, or they were hurrying on the road, and everyone was in a hurry.
"Life here is fast-paced, and everyone is on the go, whether it's to raise a family or want more. Only when you are old and retired will you have nothing to bask in the sun and water your flowers. ”
The empress looked at the pedestrians on both sides, and her eyes were also on the surrounding high-rise buildings, and at this time, she could see that there were high-rise buildings on both sides of the road ahead, full of modern atmosphere.
"There's a leather bag shop, it's the ...... those people are carrying," Ren Baqian slowly opened to introduce the shops on both sides to the empress.
"There's a flower shop, a ...... that specializes in flowers."
"It's a bookstore, a place that sells books......"
"Stop, I want to see. The empress suddenly spoke, and after hearing this, Ren Baqian turned around the neighborhood to find a place to park.
It had just snowed and it was cold. The empress is just wearing a coat, wearing a long red skirt inside, and her calves are exposed, which makes people feel that they need to be demeanor rather than temperature when they see it.
But as soon as I saw the face, I had to nod that I really had this capital.
Ren Baqian and the empress entered the bookstore, which is a three-story building, the first floor is the cashier, the second floor is all kinds of books, and the third floor is audio and video products.
After the two entered, the empress put her eyes on the LCD TV hanging from time to time, and there were various books on it.
When she came to the second floor and saw the vast sea of books, the empress's face was a little moved.
There are several times more books here than in the Pure Heart Hall.
Walking in it, everywhere is filled with the fragrance of ink.
Seeing that everyone could pick a book and buy it at a very cheap price, the Empress could not help but marvel at how remarkable the world was in this regard.
Even Great Xia is far from reaching this point, books are still very expensive for most people, and although there are many scholars, they are still very small compared to the huge population.
After leaving the bookstore, the two of them walked around the city again, and the empress knew a little more about this world.
At noon, Ren Baqian asked the empress: "How about eating hot pot?" ”
"Good. ”
The two sat in a hot pot restaurant, ordered some meat, vegetables, and seafood first, and Ren Baqian helped the empress mix the seasoning, and the two sat down.
In such weather, two people are surrounded by a steaming hot pot, which is a great enjoyment.
When Ren Baqian put the food into it, and after teaching the empress how to eat the meat slices when they were cooked, he soon began to be surprised by the amount of food the empress.
Because in his impression, whether it was in the palace before or yesterday, the empress didn't eat much.
And today there is already a stack of plates next to the two of them. At least ten plates of meat, nine plates went into the empress's stomach.
"I usually have medicinal food to replenish my blood qi, and I need a lot of food. This is true of the ancient people. The empress raised her head and said to Ren Baqian.
Ren Baqian nodded, the amount of food that those people in the Beast Garden had already surprised him. With the strength of the empress, it is understandable that it is even more amazing.
Looking at the sauce on the side of the empress's mouth, Ren Baqian picked up a tissue and got up to wipe it for her.
The empress's body trembled, and she didn't dodge, but her eyelashes trembled.
The people who were watching here watched the actions of the two people with envy.
Ren Baqian's action and the empress's appearance sprinkled a full of dog food from a hot pot restaurant, making others feel full before they ate it.
"I want this. The empress said to Ren Baqian after eating.
"Good. Ren Baqian smiled.
