"What's that smell?" Lou Jinchuan looked confused.
Zhao Zhi, who was closer to him, also smelled the scent, frowned, and blurted out, "Young Master, you smell so strongly of rouge and powder."
Zhu Li and Wang Xiaoer sniffed and agreed.
Lou Jinchuan couldn't help but smell it, and it was indeed true. Thinking about where he had been today, he quickly explained, "Brother, don't get me wrong, I just went to the Rouge and Powder Shop to meet a friend and asked her to teach me how to cook Cantonese food. Didn't you always want to eat it before? So I wanted to learn it."
He pointed at the ingredients and said, "These are all ingredients needed to make Cantonese cuisine. I'm going to use these ingredients to make Cantonese cuisine for you later."
Wang Xiaoer said, "So that's how it is. The young master is really good to the eldest master."
Zhu Li agreed with a smile, "That's right, I even went out of my way to find someone to learn it from."
Zhao Zhi said, "Hehe, it's all thanks to the eldest young master that we can eat the delicious food made by the young master every day. Just thinking about it makes me happy."
Huh? It's for him again...
This is somewhat similar to him.
Yan Xi laughed dryly, "What did I misunderstand? I didn't misunderstand anything." He felt awkward.
Lou Jinchuan saw through it but didn't say anything, he just felt a little helpless.
When will he realize that he is the one he likes?
I have to say that Lou Jinchuan is a very good cook.
In the past few years, Lou Jinchuan has learned almost everything he wants to eat. Yan Xi believes that if he continues like this, he will have learned some cuisines from all over the country.
With this skill, you can open a chain of restaurants.
At dinner time, Pang Hao arrived. The six of them filled the table with dishes, making it very lively.
Pang Hao mentioned this casually, "Next month, your senior brother will be coming to Lin'an City. I'll let you meet him then."
Yan Xi was stunned, "Senior Brother is coming back from outside the pass?"
Pang Hao said that their eldest brother's parents had an unwritten rule that every time their descendants turned eighteen, they had to go to Yuguan Mountain outside the Great Wall to guard it for ten years.
Counting it up, this year is exactly the tenth year.
During the past ten years, I visited him once a year to check if he was practicing well.
But he had a question, their senior brother seemed a little old.
Pang Hao is only 32 years old this year.
"Yes, I just received a letter from him yesterday. He said he brought gifts for you all and wanted to give you a surprise." Pang Hao said with a smile, "It just so happens that you will be done with your work next month and can have a good rest. The four of us can get together as master and apprentice."
Yan Xi nodded and smiled faintly, "Okay, Xiao Jin and I also want to spar with the senior brother and let him give us some pointers, right, Xiao Jin?"
He looked at Lou Jinchuan.
The young man responded with a faint smile.
The three of them agreed, Pang Hao finished his meal and slipped away again.
…
That night.
Yan Xi was full during dinner, so he took a walk in the yard. When he was tired, he flew to the roof to look at the stars.
Ever since he started practicing Qinggong, everything he does has become much easier.
Whenever the night sky is clear and the stars are twinkling, he will run to the roof to look at the stars.
Lou Jinchuan made the bed but found that the person was missing. He went out to look for him and found him on the roof staring at the sky in a daze. He chuckled, tiptoed, jumped up, and sat steadily next to him.
Yan Xi tilted her head to glance at him, her eyes slightly curved. "The stars are especially bright today, aren't they beautiful?"
The boy looked up at the starry sky, stared straight into his star-like eyes, smiled and nodded, "Very beautiful."
"I think so too." Yan Xi stretched out his hand, closed one eye, and made a photographic gesture. "Click, okay, it's imprinted in my mind. I'll draw it tomorrow and give it to you for your collection. Maybe it will become a masterpiece in the future."
The young man raised his eyebrows, looking very confident.
Lou Jinchuan liked him the most like this, shining with confidence, dazzling and eye-catching.
"Okay, I'll wait for that day to come." He smiled lightly, his tone heavy but with a hint of doting, "But, in my eyes, whatever Senior Brother paints is a masterpiece of antiquity."
Hearing this, Yan Xi was slightly stunned. Looking into his deep, dark eyes, his heart suddenly skipped a beat. He quickly looked away and chuckled twice. "I didn't expect Xiao Jin to admire me so much. I feel very honored. But, you, boy, have been getting more and more sweet-tongued recently. Who did you learn that from?"
Noticing his reaction, Lou Jinchuan said with a half-smile, "I didn't learn it from anyone. I probably learned it on my own."
"Self-taught?" These four words confused Yan Xi.
Holy crap, a man only learns things naturally and becomes enlightened when he has someone he likes. Could it be that the male protagonist really has someone he likes?!
Yan Xi agreed with this. He stole a glance at the young boy and asked indirectly, "Xiao Jin, what do you think love is?"
"Brother, why are you suddenly asking this?" Lou Jinchuan's eyes deepened slightly.
"Oh, I was reading a book a while ago and saw a sentence that said, 'You should marry a virtuous wife,' but some people disagree with this view. Instead, they say you should marry someone you like. I wanted to ask you, what do you think constitutes love?"
