Chapter 8: Heartbeat
After being quiet for a long time, Ye Zhen finally broke the silence and said with a smile, "Look at us, how can we talk and become like this, little brother, don't hold those woods, it's very tiring." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Yuan Xiu has been holding the thirty-two wooden bars, looking at him as if he is holding thirty-two gold bars, when Ye Zhenyi said it, he came back to his senses, and said with a smile, "Such a precious thing, naturally you have to take it well." But I still hope that one day I will be happy with your results. ”
Ye Zhen smiled, "Okay, I'm afraid you won't recognize me at that time." ”
Yuan Xiuqi said, "Why?"
Ye Zhen hesitated and said, "Little brother, for some reason, I don't think we are all the way, you will definitely have a great future, and I am a woodcutter, so I ......"
Yuan Xiu hurriedly said, "Big brother, why do you think so, what's wrong with the woodcutter, I think it's very good, besides, how can there be a woodcutter like you, you don't use a knife and a stick to chop wood, I think you will have a bright future in the future, little brother, I want to admire you." ”
Ye Zhen smiled and said, "Admiration?
Yuanxiu was overjoyed and said, "That's really good, big brother, you're so good." ”
Ye Zhen smiled and said, "Brother, this is what my big brother should do." Saying that, he looked at the sky, the sun was in the sky, and before he knew it, it was noon, and it happened that when Ye Zhen was looking at the sky, Yuan Xiu's uncompetitive stomach began to rebel again, "Gollum" screamed, Yuan Xiu blushed with shame, and he didn't know where to put his hands.
Ye Zhen still pretended not to hear the strange sound, and said to himself, "Lao Huang, why hasn't this guy come back yet, he really went crazy as soon as he went out." Then he said to Yuan Xiu, "Little brother, what do you want to eat at noon?"
Lunch is very rich, of course, this is relative to the current conditions, there are pheasants and hares, mountain vegetables and mountain mushrooms, which are all kinds of mountain delicacies and wild game, and Ye Zhen's cooking skills are also good, so that Yuan Xiu is full of praise for eating, what to say is that those famous chefs in Zhongzhou Restaurant are not as good as Ye Zhen, this is of course a naked compliment, patting on the back, Ye Zhen is still self-aware, and he was not dizzy by Yuan Xiu's words, but he was naturally quite proud when he saw Yuan Xiu eating happily, and said bluntly, "If it's delicious, you can eat more." ”
After eating a meal for more than half an hour, after eating and drinking, Yuan Xiu stretched his waist, yawned, his big eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked sleepy, so he wanted to take a nap.
But Yuan Xiu was embarrassed to say that he wanted to take a nap and sleep when he was full, which was too much, and then looked at the empty bowls and plates on the table, Yuan Xiu felt that he was better at doing some work, don't let people be regarded as slackers who only know how to eat and don't know how to clean up.
Yuan Xiu was about to start cleaning the table, but Ye Zhen took the lead, and said to Yuan Xiu while working, "Little brother, leave it to me here, you go and rest." ”
Yuan Xiu said embarrassedly, "How bad is this, I don't want to be a slacker." ”
Ye Zhen smiled and said, "What a lazy person, I didn't say it, I'll do this little work, you go and rest." ”
Yuan Xiu saw that Ye Zhen was working hard, he couldn't help at all, so he could only say, "Big brother has worked hard." Then he went back to the bedroom, and fell asleep after a while, maybe he felt relaxed, no longer so nervous, Yuan Xiu's sleep was really good, and he slept for nearly two hours in this nap.
When Yuanxiu took a nap, Ye Zhen was not idle, after cleaning up the dishes, he began to practice, but this time the time for practicing the exercises was shorter than at night, only about an hour, and when Yuanxiu woke up, Ye Zhen had already finished the exercises, and he was about to start dinner again.
Yuan Xiu saw that Ye Zhen was so active in cooking, and seemed to really regard himself as a big-bellied ghost, and complained unconsciously and said, "Big brother, I haven't digested lunch yet! ”
Ye Zhen smiled, "I'll do it first, and then eat when you're hungry, and we'll eat lightly at night, I promise that you will never become a big lazy pig." ”
Yuan Xiu has already realized Ye Zhen's carefulness, and his care for him can be regarded as meticulous, which really moved Yuan Xiu, seeing that Ye Zhen was busy for him, Yuan Xiu's heart was warm, and he didn't speak again, just silently watched Ye Zhen busy with this and that, until dinner was ready, and it was done.
And at dusk, that old Huang still didn't appear, Ye Zhen was used to it, but Yuan Xiu was a little inexplicably worried, so he asked Ye Zhen, "Big brother, why hasn't that old Huang come back?"
Ye Zhen couldn't imagine that Yuan Xiu cared so much about Lao Huang, and was slightly strange, and said, "You seem to care about Lao Huang!"
Yuan Xiu snorted, "I'm just wondering, why is he not at ease at all when he is such a big person." ”
Ye Zhen smiled slightly when he heard this, that smile was a little mysterious in Yuanxiu, it seemed that there were a lot of things hidden in it, so he listened to Ye Zhendao, "If he is settled, he won't be called Lao Huang, this guy is like this, just wait for you to get used to it." ”
It's good to get used to it, Yuan Xiu snorted again when he heard it, and said, "I'm too lazy to care about him, big brother, what kind of person is this Lao Huang?" he still couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked about Ye Zhen Lao Huang's situation.
A mysterious or strange smile appeared on Ye Zhen's face again, "Lao Huang is not easy to describe, little brother, you have to be prepared, this guy ...... It's really special. Ye Zhen thought for a moment, and finally said.
When Yuan Xiu heard the sentence "very special", his heart moved, and the image of a man in sloppy clothes and obscene appearance immediately appeared in his mind, this is the impression that Lao Huang gave him, compared with Ye Zhen, Lao Huang is really special.
Thinking that Lao Huang was so special, Yuan Xiu couldn't help but shudder, Ye Zhen suddenly shivered when he saw him, and hurriedly said, "What's the matter, do you feel cold?" Looking at the fire in the house again, the room can be regarded as warm as spring, there is really no trace of chill, but why is Yuan Xiu shivering?
Yuan Xiu's little face was a little pale, seeing Ye Zhen looking at him with concern, his heart was hot, and he secretly said, "Big brother is so good to me, how good would he be if he was a real big brother!" Then he thought again, "Even if it's a flesh and blood relative, it's just like that, why is he so good to me, is it...... He already knew my ...... That's why he is so kind to me, he has other plans for me......" Thinking of this, Yuan Xiu suddenly dispelled this thought, and blamed himself, "How can you think like this, eldest brother will never be that kind of person, he is a good person, even if he is someone else, he will do this to him." But thinking that if Ye Zhen is the same to everyone else, then what is he, wouldn't he have no place in Ye Zhen's heart, which made Yuan Xiu very angry, he thought about it so much at once, it was really a flash of thought, and it was incredibly fast.
And Ye Zhen saw that Yuan Xiu was silent, he was stunned there, his expression was still so strange, his face was red and white for a while, and he thought that Yuan Xiu was really sick, and said busily, "Little brother, are you okay?" When he spoke, he had already stood up, his body moved forward towards Yuan Xiu, he and Yuan Xiu sat opposite each other, the middle was the table, not too far apart, Ye Zhen originally planned to reach out and try Yuan Xiu's forehead to see if he had a fever, but as soon as his hand was raised, Ye Zhen thought of Yuan Xiu's identity, and hurriedly stopped, but the upper body was still much closer to Yuan Xiu.
At this moment, Yuan Xiu came back to his senses, his big eyes were radiant, radiant, and Ye Zhen's eyes were touched, their eyes were facing each other, close at hand, and they could almost smell each other's breath, at that moment Ye Zhen and Yuan Xiu were stunned, at this moment there was only one person in their eyes, a face, or a world that belonged to them alone.
The face in Ye Zhen's eyes, bright eyes and bright teeth, skin is better than snow, delicate and incomparable, you can't force your eyes, Ye Zhen knows that it is very inappropriate to look at Yuanxiu like this, but his eyes just can't let him call the shots, he doesn't blink, just looks at that face, that person.
The face in Yuan Xiu's eyes was handsome and handsome in his mind, of course, the most important thing was that this face had a rare rustic atmosphere, which was the most attractive to Yuan Xiu, and now looking at Ye Zhen so closely, Yuan Xiu thought in his heart, "His nose is really high, and his eyes are actually quite big......!" Huh!" Yuan Xiu suddenly realized that Ye Zhen's face was too close to him, and he could feel the unique breath of a man coming from the other party's body, which made him blush and heartbeat, making him embarrassed, but he didn't have the consciousness to dodge, and he looked at the other party directly like Ye Zhen, it was really intent, and it was difficult to give up.
Ye Zhen and Yuan Xiu stared at each other for a long time, and no one spoke to each other, and the atmosphere was extremely silent and extraordinarily wonderful, which was really wonderful.
After a long time, Yuanxiu is a ...... after all The skin is thin, and a faint flush gradually appears on the jade-like cheeks, of course Ye Zhen can see it, he finally knows what it means to be like autumn water, delicate cheeks, and the eye waves are flowing, which can be described as expressive, making him lose his mind, but fortunately, his Xuangong must not be practiced in vain, and his concentration is also some, there is no drool, and suddenly he heard a pleasant and beautiful voice, "Big brother, what are you looking at?"
Ye Zhen woke up when he heard the sound, and immediately realized how out of shape he was, and Yuan Xiuyu's face was already blushing, and he was looking at himself with very strange eyes, and there were some things in his clear eyes that he didn't quite understand, Ye Zhen couldn't say it, in short, it was something that made him flustered, blushing and warm.
Ye Zhen's face was already red and purple, and he was embarrassed under Yuan Xiu's gaze, and said in a panic, "It's nothing, I didn't see anything, Brother Xiu, I ...... I think you're just a little ...... If something isn't right...... Thought you were sick...... By the way, are you alright?" he finally returned to normal, and after explaining, he smiled and sat back down.
After listening to him, Yuanxiu's expression did not change much, and he nodded slightly and said, "I'm fine, big brother, why did you stutter when you spoke." ”
As soon as Ye Zhen was asked by him, his mind that had just calmed down immediately became confused, and he said, "Is there one......?" How do I ...... I don't think so, hehe...... It seems that there are some, it doesn't matter...... It doesn't matter, little brother, you can eat quickly, are you hungry again?" Ye Zhen really had nothing to say in the end, he could only point to the food on the table in the hope of diverting the topic.
Yuan Xiu still looked at Ye Zhen very calmly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth that Ye Zhen couldn't figure out, and the smile made Ye Zhen more and more flustered, he was really restless, honestly afraid, and said in his heart, "Ye Zhen, Ye Zhen, are you a little promising, are you a little promising, have you done anything wrong, what are you panicking, what are you stammering!" But the more he thought about it, the more panicked he became, and Yuan Xiu was always staring at him, which made him feel like he was on pins and needles, and bursts of hot sweat broke out on the tip of his forehead and nose.
Yuan Xiu's heart was not as calm as his, from Ye Zhen's expression and demeanor, he already understood that Ye Zhen already knew his identity, this guy really knew how to pretend!
This made Yuan Xiu is annoyed and inexplicably happy, just looked at each other, he, it should be her, she could see the sincere concern in Ye Zhen's eyes, not mixed with other things, very warm and touched her, she knew that Ye Zhen was not lying, but she also secretly hated Ye Zhen for knowing that she was a daughter, but pretending not to know, and said in her heart, "You pretend to be good, hum, little brother, little brother, you call it so affectionately, like the real thing, I'm afraid that my heart has long been ......" Thinking of this, her face suddenly turned red, and then she glared at Ye Zhen fiercely, her eyes were as sharp as a pair of sharp swords.
Ye Zhen was taken aback by her murderous eyes, and said in his heart, "Why does she look at me like this, ......her eyes are too sharp!"
Fortunately, Yuan Xiu was just annoyed for a while, and his eyes quickly softened a lot, seeing Ye Zhen's embarrassed appearance, Yuan Xiu was secretly amused, and then said softly, "Big brother, what's wrong with you, why is your face so ugly, can't it be sick?"
Hearing Yuan Xiu's soft voice, Ye Zhen felt that his body was uncomfortably hot, and sweat rolled down his forehead, making his face all over it, how embarrassed and embarrassed he was, Ye Zhen wiped his sweat, cheered up and said, "No, how can I get sick, I ...... I'm as strong as a cow!"
Yuan Xiu looked at Ye Zhen who was at a loss, and smiled when he heard the words, the smile was as good-looking as it was, Ye Zhen was dazzled, and then Yuan Xiu said casually, "I think you are stupid like a cow!" Hmph, big brother, it's not early, I'm going to rest, you can do it yourself." With that, she got up and headed for the bedroom.
At the moment when Yuan Xiu smiled, Ye Zhen suddenly felt that this "little brother" seemed to have grown up a lot all of a sudden, as if he was not much younger than himself, that smile, that look made his heart tremble, and he was uncomfortable, but he felt very something, how to describe Ye Zhen can't say it, anyway, it's that.
As soon as he was stunned, Yuan Xiu had already arrived at the bedroom door, and Ye Zhen was busy saying, "Little brother, you haven't eaten yet!"
Yuan Xiu looked back and smiled, "It's better for you to eat it yourself! Stupid cow!" The smile was bright, like a flower blooming, gorgeous and colorful.
In the laughter, Yuan Xiu entered the bedroom, left Ye Zhen outside, and looked at the bedroom door stupidly, and there was still an image of Yuan Xiu looking back and smiling in his eyes, which was extremely clear, and seemed to have been imprinted in his mind, after a long time, Ye Zhen came back to his senses and muttered, "How can I eat so much, you really treat me as a cow." But he said in his heart, "It's over, it's over, the little brother is really a big beauty, not a little beauty, laughing and flustering, the seventh master is right, women are too beautiful, they can really captivate the country and the city, bring disaster to the country and the people, Yuanxiu is still young, if he grows up, then he will have it!"
Ye Zhen was thinking wildly outside, sighing with emotion, Yuanxiu was not calm in the bedroom, of course she didn't rest, the so-called late sky is just an excuse, at the moment it is just dusk, the sunset is obliquely shining, in front of the window, Yuanxiu sat on the bed with her knees crossed, bathed in the sunlight with a faint warmth, looking out of the window in a daze, she was thinking about what had just happened, thinking about it, her face was flushed, the color was more gorgeous than the color of the sunset, although she was still dressed as a man, but she had removed the disguise, she really revealed the charm and charm of a young girl, her eyes were like spring water, bright red and tender cherry red lips, and her beautiful and delicate nose, beautiful and delicate chin, no matter how you look at it, she is also a stunning beauty, she is really beautiful!
Yuan Xiu sat still, but she kept thinking in her heart, "What should I do now?" he knows my daughter, what should I do in the future, I'm really sad, Ye Zhen, you stupid cow, stupid, you are angry with me!" She didn't know why she was scolding Ye Zhen, and now the only person who could make her angry was the unlucky Ye Zhen.
After complaining about Ye Zhen, Yuan Xiu thought again, "What should I do tomorrow, yes...... Alas, it's a headache to think about, what will he do to me, can it still be the same as before?" And thinking of this, Yuan Xiu was suddenly stunned, calculating the time, he and Ye Zhenman had known each other for a day, but it gave her the feeling that they had known each other for a long time, and they knew each other so well, which was really strange and wonderful.
Yuan Xiu couldn't understand how this could be, how could she be so upset about a person she had only known for a day, was it because Ye Zhen had saved her, could it be that this was the so-called first sight or ...... at first sight? Thinking of what had happened in the past two days, Yuan Xiu even felt a little incredible, why did she meet Ye Zhen? Why would she be so relieved of a stranger? Could it be that this is fate? This is fate?
Fate is destined, Yuan Xiu suddenly remembered this sentence, her cheeks were red again, and she secretly said to herself, "What are you thinking? Have you forgotten your responsibility?" Then Yuan Xiu's body trembled slightly, her pretty face instantly turned white like snow, and the spring water in her big eyes turned cold in an instant, and then she muttered, "I haven't forgotten, I will do it!" The voice was very low, but the tone was firm, revealing a decisive atmosphere.
With Yuan Xiu's muttering to himself, the last trace of afterglow in the west slowly disappeared, the night surged, enveloping the heavens and the earth, there were no candles lit in the bedroom, and Yuan Xiu's whole person also blended into the darkness, only the eyes flashed brightly, like cold stars.
Ye Zhen outside didn't know Yuan Xiu's mood changes, he was worried, worried about the table of food.
He thought that Yuanxiu would have a candle night talk with him, so that these meals would definitely be eaten by the two of them, but how did he know that Yuanxiu would not eat them inexplicably, which really made Ye Zhen helpless, and he was also confused, and said in his heart, "It is said that women are fickle, and it is true, alas!" Sighing secretly, Ye Zhen stared at the table, he didn't think as much as Yuan Xiu, but it was strange that Yuan Xiu, a girl, dared to travel alone, and traveled thousands of miles to Qincheng, even if she had a family to take care of her before, but then she dared to do it without a family, Ye Zhen really admired Yuan Xiu's courage, and said secretly, "The little brother is definitely not from an ordinary family, but I don't know if her cousin can treat her well......?" Ye Zhen secretly had a plan, he was really thinking about Yuanxiu, and he was also very strange, why did he care so much about Yuanxiu, was it because they had similar experiences with each other?
This night, Ye Zhen's heart always couldn't calm down, in the past, every late at night, he would practice exercises and practice qi, but tonight he was upset, and he couldn't calm his mind at all, this was a phenomenon he had never had, and the reason for it was only related to Yuan Xiu.
Unable to cultivate, Ye Zhen sat on the futon and closed his eyes to recuperate, suddenly he heard a movement in the bedroom, listened carefully, only to find that Yuanxiu was also awake, Ye Zhen was a little strange, so he wanted to call Yuanxiu to chat, but for some reason he couldn't help but make no sound, so Ye Zhen, Yuanxiu, one inside the house, one outside the house, just sat silently, one looked at the night outside, the other listened to the sound of wood burning in the stove, each thinking about their hearts, waiting for dawn.
