Chapter 447: Winter
That winter, I tasted the rock sugar Sydney pear that Gu Celadon said, and I will never forget it for a lifetime, and I remember it vividly every time I think of it.
In the depths of winter, the sky was cold, the ice and snow covered the earth, and there was not even a human figure on the land of the Divine Court.
Yan Shucuo was invited to her home by Gu Celadon for the first time, but she was the only one in her home.
Gu Qingci said that the house was left to her by her father, and after her mother died, her father was nowhere to be found. She wasn't going to look for it, and it was just two people sad together. And now although they are sad, they will hope that each other will have a good life.
He has never been sick, and his life is not in reincarnation.
Gu Celadon took out a pear from the vat in the courtyard, it was a pear that was frozen harder than a stone, and the original yellow and white skin had turned black.
Two people, she only took one pear.
When I entered the house, I boiled a pot of water and poured it neatly into the basin. Put a plate on the basin and place the pears on the plate.
Yan Yan mistakenly saw that she was skillful, and she must have used to make homemade rock sugar pears in the past.
When a layer of hoarfrost floated on the black peel, Gu Celadon brought another clay pot from the kitchen, which was filled with sugar.
She glanced at Yan Yu slightly proudly, "Wait, it'll be fine right away." ”
Then he ran out and came in as fast as he could, with snow in his hand. Due to the temperature of the palm, snow water runs down between your fingers.
Quickly put the snow into the teapot, then put the pear with a small opening with the mouth, and the juice will flow out, aiming at the teapot.
When the juice of the pear ran out, she pinched it twice hard, and then scooped up a spoonful of sugar and poured it into the teapot.
Yan Yan watched her turn pears, melt snow, and put sugar, and her heart was warm and cold.
The warm thing is that she is so good to herself, and the cold thing is that the world is bleak, and she bears it alone.
"Are you alright?"
"It's almost there, there's still one last step left. ”
Gu Celadon ran out again, this time bringing a piece of transparent ice, chopping it with a knife, and putting it in the pot.
Shake the teapot, and then give Yan Yu the wrong cup, "Drink it while it's cold." ”
He took a sip from the cup, it was cool, sweet, and pear-scented, "delicious"
Gu Celadon smiled, picked up the pear that had dried up on the side and took a bite. She was reluctant to throw them away, because these were the last few of the autumn, and they were very precious.
"If it's delicious, drink it all, you're welcome. She shook her body while eating the pear, not knowing if it was cold or excited.
I can't bear to say it, "This is rock sugar Sydney!"
He admired her imagination.
"Yes, my mother died when I was very young, and after my father disappeared, no one cared about me. Other people's children boasted in front of me that their parents would make rock candy pears for them to drink. I don't have a father and mother, so I can only make it myself, ice, sugar, snow, pear, all four, is this how to do it?"
For more than ten years, Gu Celadon has been doing this, and he also thinks that rock sugar Sydney pear is like this.
Yan Shu smiled and said: "Yes, the rock sugar pears you make are authentic, and they are better than theirs." ”
She smiled, half of the shriveled pears had already been eaten, "Then I'll make it for you next time?"
"Okay, I'll come back in three days. ”
The words passed away by mistake, and the rock sugar Sydney pear was not drunk. Not because it didn't taste good, but because he wanted to keep it for her to enjoy.
Three days, he spent three days, trying by all means to find a hundred frozen and blackened pears for her.
That's enough for her to drink a winter's rock sugar pear.
See you again three days later, when she saw the hundred pears that Yan Chuan had brought, and her whole body was radiant. I happily took the bamboo basket, but it was too heavy and fell directly to the ground.
"I'll help you. Yan Chuan easily picked up the bamboo basket, walked to the vat, carefully took out the pears one by one, and put them in.
"Leave two outside. Gu Qingci stood behind him, nodding his toes and looking into the jar.
Yan Shu knew that she was going to make rock sugar pears for herself, and she would make them for herself this time. She finally didn't have to wronged herself anymore, which was what he wanted to see.
Finally, he held a pear in his left and right hands, "Open the door for me, the pear is so cold." ”
With his skills, this cold can't invade his body at all, but in front of her, he just wants to be an ordinary person.
Gu Celadon pushed open the door, pulled his sleeve in, grabbed the hard and cold pear and put it on the table, "Huh~Huh~ I won't be cold if I blow your hands for you." ”
Yan Shu sat at the table, watching her busy inside and out, and this time made two pots of rock sugar pears.
Gu Celadon poured him a glass, while he was still eating the shriveled pear meat.
"Why don't you drink it?"
"Just drink it, I'll eat pears. ”
"But there are two pots, and I can't finish them. ”
Gu Qingci looked at the teapot on the table and pursed his lips, "Xiao Afu next door is also a child without a father, he has been with his grandmother since he was a child, and he has never drunk rock sugar pears, I want to give this pot to him." ”
After speaking, she ran out with a teapot, probably looking for Xiao Afu next door.
Yan Shucao looked at the remaining teapot on the table, and felt indescribably uncomfortable, as if a big stone was blocked in his chest, and he couldn't breathe.
Stand up and look at everything in the house, the humble wooden house, it must be very cold in winter. found two pairs of quilts on the bed, and her heart ached, so she used two pairs of quilts to keep out the cold at night.
At this moment, he made a decision.
The world is big, and he wants to give her a home.
Then he left, this time without drinking rock sugar pears, leaving it all to her. From now on, all the good things in the world will be left to her.
Gu Qingci watched Xiao Afu finish drinking a pot of rock sugar pears next door, and he was in a very good mood. When I returned home, I stood at the door and saw that the house was empty, and the teapot I was holding in my hand fell to the ground and shattered.
"How did he go?"
......
Seven days later, when Yan Shucao came to Gu Qingci's house again and looked for her, he found that there was no one in the house, and there was a pot full of rock sugar pears in the teapot on the table.
He ran out, put the outline down, and counted the pears inside.
Ninety-nine, she didn't even move for seven days. Then the pot on the table was made for herself seven days ago.
What happened?
For the first time in his life, he felt insecure. Even when he faced all the masters of the three evils and two righteousness in the past, he calmly dealt with it. But today, for the sake of a Gu celadon, he can no longer be calm.
All the firsts in his life were given to her.
The first time I let my guard down, the first time I was excited, the first time I was warm, and the first time I was uneasy.
From the very beginning, the two were destined to be tied up for life, and they could never go back to the time when they were alone, because no matter who was missing, they would not have a good time.
"Where will it go?"
Yan Yu thought about where she went, as if there was only one place he knew. Then he walked out of the yard, his figure flashed, his feet off the ground, and he rode away in the wind.
