Chapter 292 He is my life-saving straw
Fu Qingyin stared at the black and white box.
"Open."
Hei Bai had no choice but to open the box reluctantly.
In comparison, his box of snacks looked ordinary.
There are no flower shapes and no petals to embellish them.
Hei Bai watched carefully and said, "Master, flower desserts are not easy to make. Although I have never eaten them, I have heard from the people in the palace kitchen that you have to take fresh flower petals and pick them up bit by bit. It is even more complicated to make them. You have to keep the fragrance and freshness of the flowers, and keep the colors beautiful. Anyway, if you don't spend time and effort, you can't make them in a few hours."
Fu Qingyin said nothing and waved his hand to let him go out.
Hei Bai quickly ran out with his box. Fortunately, he diverted his master's attention, otherwise, his box might have been confiscated.
Fu Qingyin picked up a piece of dessert and looked at it carefully under the light.
He had eaten no less than a hundred kinds of exquisite snacks in the palace, but he had never cared about what they tasted like or what they looked like.
After listening to what Hei Bai just said, he suddenly wanted to know the process of making snacks.
Putting down the snacks, I looked at the chicken. Perhaps because it was cooked at home, it was more skillful in every aspect, and the chicken seemed to be particularly fragrant.
And those two home-cooked dishes, he had never eaten the dishes she cooked.
This meal has a unique flavor.
…
Yu Shengsheng returned to the cottage. Lu Hu was still busy among the flowers. The lights were on in the yard, and the flowers had a different kind of beauty under the lights.
"Miss," Green Lake put down the hoe, "next time I come, bring some fertilizer. Fertilize the flowers before they wither, and they will bloom better next year."
Yu Shengsheng smiled and nodded: "Okay."
Next year, when spring comes and flowers bloom, perhaps she will have done everything she needed to do, and the scene will be different.
After having dinner at the small house and saying goodbye to Nanny Zhou, Yu Shengsheng returned to the Su Mansion.
As I entered the mansion, I happened to meet Su Huaiyuan.
Su Huaiyuan showed a happy expression: "Shengsheng is back? Are you feeling better? Have you had dinner? I will tell the kitchen right away..."
"No need," Yu Shengsheng nodded, "I've already eaten. General, you've come at the right time. I picked these two people from the manor, so I have to arrange accommodation for them, and I'll pay for their monthly salary myself."
Su Huaiyuan glanced at the two brothers of the Xu family: "If you want to hire someone, you can tell me..."
He swallowed his words back halfway through his speech, and sighed, "Well, you can pick them yourself, and I'll have the housekeeper arrange for them. You don't have to pay for the monthly salary yourself, just like the other people in the mansion."
Yu Shengsheng didn't want to argue about these trivial matters, so Fu Fu stepped back.
Su Huaiyuan ordered someone to call the housekeeper and make proper arrangements for the Xu brothers.
How could he not see that Yu Shengsheng had become cold towards the Su family? It would take time to make her change her mind.
Take it slow and let her like it first.
Yu Shengsheng returned to the yard. Although it was still early, she was not fully recovered and had been busy for a whole day and night. Now that she was relaxing, she felt very tired.
After taking a shower, drinking the medicine, I lay down and fell asleep.
I don’t know how long it had been, but I seemed to hear someone crying, and the sound was so sad, like a woman.
No, it's several women.
Yu Shengsheng wanted to open her eyes, but her eyelids felt extremely heavy.
In the haze, I seemed to be back in that strange courtyard. The courtyard was full of flowers, which bloomed particularly beautifully under the moonlight, almost weird.
She was looking at the flowers, and suddenly the flowers turned into women's faces.
She was shocked.
Fu Qingyin came in from the back window, but he didn't expect that Yu Shengsheng was already asleep.
Just as I was about to turn around and leave, I saw that she was frowning, her forehead was covered in sweat, and her hands were tightly grasping the quilt.
After hesitating for a moment, he quickly walked to the bedside and felt the temperature of her forehead. It was not hot, so she must be having a nightmare.
Fu Qingyin gently wiped the sweat off her forehead and hesitantly held her fingertips.
Yu Shengsheng, however, grabbed him tightly like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw.
Fu Qingyin's breath was slightly choked, and he whispered, "Yu Shengsheng."
Yu Shengsheng was in a terrified dream, unable to extricate herself. She vaguely heard someone calling her and tried hard to open her eyes.
The woman's crying became clearer and clearer. The strange flowers were chasing her, and she held Fu Qingyin tighter.
Fu Qingyin called her repeatedly: "Yu Shengsheng! Shengsheng!"
Yu Shengsheng suddenly opened her eyes and saw Fu Qingyin. She felt inexplicably aggrieved and her eyes turned red unconsciously.
"Commander!"
Fu Qingyin was about to speak when Yu Shengsheng suddenly hugged him.
"I know this is a dream," Yu Shengsheng said in his arms, "those flowers want to eat me."
Fu Qingyin's heart seemed to stop beating for a moment, and then started beating wildly again, like a rabbit that had escaped from its cage.
He didn't know where to put his hands. All he could see was Yu Shengsheng's back covered with black hair. A few strands of hair fell down and landed on his arms and fingers.
The inner demon that had been suppressed for so long suddenly broke out of its cage, pounced towards him frantically and fiercely, tearing at his sanity.
Yu Shengsheng was unaware of anything. Fu Qingyin clenched his teeth, exerted force with both hands, grabbed her slender shoulders, pulled her away, and then took big steps back.
Yu Shengsheng also woke up at this time and realized that this was not a dream.
Just as he was shocked by his own recklessness and impulsiveness, he was pulled away by Fu Qingyin and his mind went blank.
She widened her eyes and looked at Fu Qingyin.
His face was as gloomy as water, his whole body was filled with murderous intent, and the whites of his eyes were slightly red.
She was startled and suddenly remembered that night outside the city, Fu Qingyin seemed to be like the same thing.
"Commander?"
Fu Qingyin stroked his head with one hand, tightly grasped the corner of the table with the other, and said nothing.
Yu Shengsheng quickly got out of bed, not caring about anything else: "Commander, what's wrong with you? What can I do for you?"
Fu Qingyin whispered, "Don't come over."
Yu Shengsheng stopped and stepped back to the bed: "Is this okay?"
"Or, I have some calming incense, could that help?"
Fu Qingyin didn't say anything. Yu Shengsheng fumbled out and lit the incense.
The air filled the air, and Fu Qingyin seemed to feel better.
"Are you feeling better?"
Fu Qingyin sat down on the chair, closed his eyes, and took a few deep breaths.
The sweet aroma reminded him of the flower snacks that he was reluctant to finish eating tonight, and the madness in his heart subsided a little.
He didn't speak, and Yu Shengsheng stopped making any sound either. She stood beside the bed and carefully observed his expression.
See if he's getting better and if he needs anything.
About a quarter of an hour passed, but it seemed like a very long time.
The gloomy look on Fu Qingyin's face slowly faded away, and he opened his eyes. Yu Shengsheng discovered that the whites of his eyes had also returned to normal.
It seems to be getting better.
Yu Shengsheng breathed a sigh of relief.
Fu Qingyin broke the silence first: "What did you dream about?"
Yu Shengsheng was stunned. Thinking back to the dream and her own misconduct, her ears couldn't help but turn slightly red.
"without……"
She suddenly paused and remembered what Lu Hu said - give the flowers some fertilizer next time, and they will bloom better next year.
Thinking back to the dream she had just had, a thought struck her mind like lightning.
Her face turned pale. “Commander, I think we need to search that house again!”
