Chapter 164 Shen Cangzhu likes her? Lingzhou is suspected of being jealous?
Chu Xingchen looked moved but helpless. There were only so many beddings and quilts available for her, and there were no others available here.
She was just about to spread it elsewhere when Shen Cangzhu came in, "What's wrong? Are you not used to looking at this curtain? I can't find any other better-looking cloth."
Chu Xingchen turned around, "Did you help me hang this curtain?"
Shen Cangzhu said: "I think you will feel more comfortable this way."
It's true, there is a curtain to separate it, and the feeling is completely different.
Chu Xingchen touched the curtain and said, "These floral flowers are very beautiful. Thank you."
Shen Cangzhu is so considerate.
"Why are you so polite?" Shen Cangzhu shook his head.
Chu Xingchen smiled, pointed to the bed and said, "The curtains are good, but I have too many curtains. There is no need to lay so many curtains for me."
Shen Cangzhu took a look and realized. Originally, he picked the cleanest one and laid it for His Highness. Now he saw that after they came in, they laid their own, and then spread it several layers.
Their hearts are the same, they just want to give her the best, but she is so wronged here.
Of course, it was obvious that he wanted to sleep next to her, which could be seen from the baggage placed there.
"This kang is quite hard, leave it as it is, don't move it."
"But there's no need for so many. I'm not the Princess and the Pea. I can lay out twenty mattresses and twenty quilts and still get bitten by the peas underneath."
Chu Xingchen said he was about to take action, but Shen Cangzhu held her hand, "Don't worry about it. Why don't you tell me the story of Princess and the Pea? I don't think I've heard of her."
Chu Xingchen immediately laughed. Of course Shen Cangzhu had never heard of her, because she was a princess in fairy tales.
"She does not exist in real history. She is a character made up by people."
Chu Xingchen briefly told the story of the Princess and the Pea, and wanted to make a bed, when Lingzhou called for dinner.
Lingzhou's cooking skills are pretty good, especially the roasted chicken and roasted chicken bought by the villagers are very delicious.
Eating at the simple Eight Immortals Table with one leg lame is a rare experience for them.
The dish didn't look very good, but I didn't know if I was hungry, but it turned out to be extremely delicious when I ate it.
"What would you do without me?"
Ling Zhou was very proud. Chu Xingchen looked at Ling Zhou who had transformed into a cook and smiled. Ling Zhou was really good today.
Ling Zhou tore off a chicken leg and wanted to give it to Chu Xingchen. Xiao Wang happened to pick up a chicken leg from the side and put it into Chu Xingchen's bowl.
Chu Xingchen stood up looking at the chicken drumsticks that met in mid-air, "No need to give me any more drumsticks. I already have two. You guys eat them quickly."
Zhou Buyan gave her a chicken drumstick at the beginning. After finishing the meal, Shen Cangzhu silently gave her another chicken drumstick while Chu Xingchen turned his head to talk.
She had already eaten two large chicken drumsticks and was really full. She couldn't eat two chickens and four drumsticks.
Ling Zhou and Xiao Wang glanced at Zhou Buyan and Shen Cangzhu before eating separately.
After finishing the meal, Chu Xingchen thought that he had not cooked and must wash the dishes. However, he rolled up his sleeves and started to wash the dishes, but was stopped, "No, we can just do it."
"I can't just eat without cooking, I must wash this bowl."
Xiao Wang glanced at Zhou Buyan, and Shen Cangzhu also glanced at Zhou Buyan. Zhou Buyan looked at them and stepped forward silently. The bowl in Chu Xingchen's hand disappeared immediately.
Zhou Buyan put down the dishes and chopsticks and directly carried Chu Xingchen out of the kitchen.
He grabbed Chu Xingchen's shoulders with both hands and carried him out. Zhou Buyan didn't care about contact before, but now he pays attention.
Xiao Wangchen and Cangzhu didn't understand Zhou Buyan's psychology, so when he looked at it, he said: "..."
I just asked you to stop her from washing the dishes and didn't ask you to take the person out like this. But fortunately, it was not a hug, not even a hug, which made them feel better.
Chu Xingchen was expelled from his job as a dishwasher. He stood in the yard for a moment and was attracted by the fragrance.
Jinyan went to town to buy things, and Grandma Yang's son followed him. After looking at the suet a few more times, Jinyan bought it back and gave it to Grandma Yang and the others as a thank-you gift.
Suet is a rare good thing for them. After refining lard, they can eat it for a long time.
Grandma Yang and the others were refining oil, which is how the fragrance comes. Grandma Yang greeted Chu Xingchen warmly.
"You can eat the oily residue after a while. It's crispy and fragrant. You can also eat some later."
Oil residue is a good thing that can only be eaten once a year. Grandma Yang and her grandchildren are already swallowing their saliva.
Chu Xingchen had never eaten it, but he had heard about it, so he sat down to chat with them and planned to try it too.
The oil residue looks ugly, a little yellow and a little black, but it tastes really good.
Seeing Chu Xingchen's surprised look, Grandma Yang smiled and said, "I said it's delicious. You can take it back and give it to your husbands to try too."
Grandma Yang served a bowl to Chu Xingchen. Chu Xingchen was so kind but poured some of it back and returned with half the bowl.
Shen Cangzhu and the others had just finished cleaning up, and they all smiled when they saw her coming back with the bowl.
"Madam, what do you have?" Lingzhou came over as quickly as possible.
"Try one of the delicious ones." Chu Xingchen looked outside, "When there are only a few of us, you don't have to call me ma'am all the time. You can just call me by my name."
"Nowadays, who among the Chu people doesn't know about Xingchen paper, and who doesn't know that Her Highness is called Xingchen. If she calls her, it will reveal her secret. It's better to call her Niangzi."
Lingzhou looked at it with a smile, "What is this? Is it really delicious? It doesn't look very tasty."
"You don't know about the oil residue?" Chu Xingchen picked up one and ate it, and said deliberately, "Forget it if you don't want to eat it, I will eat it myself."
She took another one, turned around and walked out.
"I'll eat it," Shen Cangzhu said, stepped forward and took her hand, took her hand and ate it.
This time, the soft lips touched her hand. Chu Xingchen looked at Shen Cangzhu, thinking that it might be an accident, when he saw Shen Cangzhu tasted it, looked into her eyes and said, "It's delicious."
He seemed to be talking about oil residue, but his eyes were looking at her, and she didn't know what delicious food he was talking about.
Chu Xingchen's heart skipped a beat. These words seemed to mean something, and he didn't know if it was because of the lighting or something else. Shen Cangzhu always felt that something was wrong with the way Shen Cangzhu looked at her, as if he was a little too affectionate.
Is she overthinking it? Or is Shen Cangzhu just meaning something and being interested in her?
Chu Xingchen was startled by the last conclusion. Just when he wanted to think about it, Ling Zhou suddenly appeared.
"Is it so delicious? Then I want to eat it too." He opened his mouth and said, "Madam, feed me quickly."
Chu Xingchen's mind was a little confused, so he handed the bowl over and said, "You can eat it yourself."
"I cooked today, but you didn't even feed me? I still have water in my hands."
Lingzhou felt aggrieved. When Chu Xingchen heard this, he had no choice but to feed him one. Lingzhou was satisfied and looked at Shen Cangzhu proudly, "It's delicious, as long as the lady feeds it, it's delicious."
After hearing his last sentence, Chu Xingchen looked at his eyes again and felt that something was not right. He seemed to be too enthusiastic, and he felt inexplicably jealous.
Just when Chu Xingchen thought of this, he unconsciously looked up and saw Xiao Wang standing beside him, looking at her quietly with deep eyes.
There's something wrong with this...there's something wrong with this look.
