Mentioning this, Chu Ling's eyes flashed. He had never been an impulsive person, but every time he dreamed about something related to the Spring Equinox, he followed him like a devil. He rushed back that day at the tea party, and today
The same is true when leaving the Buddhist temple.
But he couldn't tell Shi Chunming about this, otherwise she would know that he was like a thief who had been spying on her life since she was eight years old.
Chu Ling closed his eyes and pretended to be calm: "It doesn't matter, I will just go to my grandmother to apologize now."
Shi Chunquin:...she thought he had some good ideas!
Shi Chunquin sighed, "I'll go with you."
With one more person present, the old lady's punishment might be lighter.
But Chu Ling shook his head, "No, you go back and ask Li Yan and the others to prepare breakfast and bath soup for me. I'll excuse myself from my grandmother and go back to eat."
Shi Chunfen was stunned for a moment and nodded subconsciously, "Okay."
It wasn't until she left the old lady's yard and was walking back to the house that she suddenly remembered, how could Chu Ling be so sure that he could come back for dinner?
Chu Ling didn't lie to her. Less than half an hour after she returned, he returned to the yard smoothly. I don't know how the old lady coaxed him. It didn't look like he had been slapped.
, Shi Chunfen was full of curiosity, but did not dare to ask more questions, fearing that he had suffered some grievances and endured it, and that it would embarrass him if he asked.
Because he came back too early, Chu Ling had no time to prepare breakfast at the Spring Equinox, so Chu Ling had to take a bath first.
Generally, young masters have to be taken care of by the maid who is in charge of his room. Chu Ling did not have a maid in his room, so he developed the habit of bathing by himself. When he came out of the bath, four dishes and one soup were already placed in the house, and the spring equinox also changed.
He took off his clothes and sat quietly at the table waiting for him.
Thinking of the unhappy meal last night, Chu Ling paused. If Shi Chunquin started crying again, he would not have the strength to coax her.
Shi Chunfen noticed his gaze, and quickly raised her eyes, her expression obviously happy, "Uncle!" The girl raised her little face, a smile appeared on the corners of her lips, and the tip of her nose was thin and shiny. She probably had been waiting for too long, and she seemed to be sweating.
came out, and what shocked Chu Ling the most was that her eyes were full of water, like a clear spring. When he appeared, he suddenly threw a stone into it, causing ripples. It was full of expectation and joy, and screamed.
He couldn't bear to take a step back.
That's all, he sighed in his heart, just cry if you want. How can a man like you be drowned in tears?
Chu Ling strode forward, sat down in front of her, and said calmly: "You have been waiting for a long time?"
Shi Chunfen quickly shook his head, consciously picked up the bowls and chopsticks and began to help him serve the dishes, "These dishes have just been prepared, so we didn't have to wait long."
Chu Ling looked at her skillful posture while doing the dishes, and realized belatedly that she was probably not looking forward to his appearance, but was anxious to show him her progress. Although she was a little childish, she wasn't very cute either.
, but soon, he was startled by his own thoughts. It turned out that his preference for the spring equinox had been exaggerated to this extent. There was nothing cute about the cloth, it was too partial.
Shi Chunfen didn't know that there were so many thoughts hidden under Chu Ling's cold face. She looked up and saw him staring at her expressionlessly, and she felt a little uneasy, "What did I do wrong?"
"No." Chu Ling quickly lowered his eyes and looked at the dishes on the table.
Beef with spring bamboo shoots, tofu mixed with Chinese toon, duck strips and sea cucumbers, three-color shredded chicken noodles and perilla and bayberry dew. They are simple and exquisite but are very appetizing. In such a short time, the kitchen can be arranged so well, which makes him a little bit agitated.
Unexpectedly, he picked up his chopsticks and took a bite of spring bamboo shoots and put it into his mouth. It was the end of spring, and the best time to eat spring bamboo shoots had passed. However, the bite he took was as tender as the bamboo shoots in early spring. Look,
The cook in the house is very talented.
"How is it?" Shi Chunquin asked impatiently, seeming to care about his evaluation.
Chu Ling nodded, "Not bad."
Shi Chunfen immediately smiled. She knew that Chu Ling had always been picky, and even he thought it was good, so that meant it was really good.
Chu Ling gave her a strange look. He didn't expect that he would be so happy when he praised the cook in front of her, which showed that he usually didn't have a good image in her mind.
Thinking of this, he sighed inwardly and stretched out his chopsticks again to pick up a piece of sea cucumber.
A handsome person, no matter what he does, it is pleasing to the eye. It is obviously just an ordinary action of picking up vegetables, but he makes it lively and delicious.
Shi Chunfen originally just wanted to observe his reaction to eating vegetables, but he saw the piece of sea cucumber was put into his mouth. His lips were thin and red, not as charming as a woman's, but they had an attractive color of their own. The food entered
He chewed gently in his mouth, and you could clearly see the curvature of his chin, which was smooth and sharp. Below that was his Adam's apple, which was a unique symbol of a man, like a forbidden fruit that tempts women to pick. Just look at two
I can't help but blush and my heart beats.
After swallowing a mouthful of sea cucumber, Chu Ling raised his eyebrows slightly as if aware of Shi Chunfen's fiery gaze, "Why don't you eat it?"
Shi Chunfen was startled and hurriedly picked up the chopsticks, "I...I'll eat it right now."
Seeing her embarrassment, Chu Ling was a little amused. This woman was always startled, like a rabbit that accidentally broke into the world, and there were always surprises everywhere.
Perhaps he was frightened by his rhetorical question, and Chu Ling became much quieter next time. Apart from helping him with dishes from time to time, he just bowed his head to eat, and rarely had any other reaction until Chu Ling was almost full and reached for her bowl.
Then she raised her eyes and looked at him with burning eyes.
As soon as Chu Ling brought it to his mouth, he smelled a faint aroma of wine. It was different from the bayberry dew made with sugar water that he had drunk in the past. The bayberry dew mixed with alcohol was obviously more mellow and had the effect of promoting sleep.
After consuming a small bowl, he was already a little drowsy, with a thin layer of dizziness on his face.
"This wine... is very special."
Knowing that Shi Chunfen loved to hear compliments, Chu Ling used his last bit of reason to praise him.
Shi Chun Equinox was indeed elated, "I brewed this last year. If you like it, I will brew a few more jars this year."
However, she did not wait for Chu Ling's answer, because he had already dozed off on the table with his chin propped up on his hand. It was not that he was too drunk, but that he had rushed back to Liuzhou day and night, and was punished by the old lady to kneel down when he came back.
After one night, he had not slept well for several days. Normally, a person would feel sleepy after eating and drinking, not to mention that he was extremely tired.
Shi Chunfen was startled for a moment, and then quickly laughed. She was used to seeing Chu Ling's cold and serious look, and she felt a little strange when she suddenly saw him dozing off.
Once people relax, they are prone to confusion.
For example, when I saw Chu Ling asleep at the Spring Equinox, my first reaction was not to call someone to lift him to the bed, but I couldn't help but reach out and scratch the bridge of his nose...
