"Um."
When Chu Li was serving rice and ladle soup, why did he feel that he was a little weird tonight?
It seems... tied up?
Looks a bit cold.
"Uncle, is the food I cook not delicious?"
Chu Dichi picked up a piece of potato shreds with chopsticks, put it in his mouth, paused for a moment, chewed it, and swallowed with a little force:
"Just one percent of my level."
"?"
nonsense!
Chu Li put down his rice bowl, picked up the plate and took a bite of potato chips, "How can the taste be as bad as you say?"
"You were lying."
"ah?"
"Hahaha! It's delicious. I like it very much. Xiaojiu, I'm happy that you are willing to put your heart into it. It's more satisfying than eating the most delicious food in the world."
The man laughed loudly, his brows softened, and the noble and cold air he had just had disappeared in an instant.
He couldn't pretend anymore.
He is so happy!
Chu Li glanced at him unhappily and said, "I fried five plates of potatoes to make this one."
"I will definitely enjoy it."
Chu Dichi held her hand and said, "The oil in the kitchen is hot, are you burned?"
"No, I'm a natural talent. Even the junior high school students praised my cooking skills."
He chuckled and tapped her fingers together, "From now on, let the people below do this kind of rough work. You don't have to do it yourself."
Why?
This was the first time she cooked for him.
All day long, Master Guiyi's words kept circling in my mind, as if they had become an unsolved nightmare that could not be shaken off.
Whether it is a good fate or an evil fate, she accepts it.
She wants to be with him.
He treated her well, and she treated him well.
Chu Li said, "I like to do it."
"Have you ever seen a gifted master showing off his talent every day?" He lowered his head and pecked the back of her hand.
Such soft hands, holding a greasy spatula, wasting God's gift.
It should be holding something else.
If he gets burned, he will feel bad.
"Xiao Jiu, I will clear all obstacles for you. I will eradicate dissidents until the great Chu is stable and no one dares to act rashly. I will definitely welcome you home with a grand ceremony and a sedan chair carried by eight people."
Chu Li chuckled.
Perhaps for people who have died once, living well and staying together well is more important than etiquette and rules.
He gave her the Coral Waterside Pavilion and all his private wealth, so why would she be dissatisfied?
"If you don't eat now, the food will get cold."
"Okay, let me taste Xiaojiu's cooking."
Chu Li picked up some food and said:
"I cooked this boiled pork slices four times... The first three dishes of this stir-fried mushrooms with peppers were either burnt or too salty... This one..."
Um……
The process is difficult, but if you can do it well, it is already excellent.
"Xiaojiu is the most virtuous woman in the world."
"really?"
"Virtuous, gentle, housekeeping, generous, and a mistress."
These few short words of praise made Chu Li bite her chopsticks with joy in her heart.
Over the years, her personality has become as free and easy as a man's, she is carefree and speaks directly, but she did not expect that the emperor's uncle would praise her so much.
After dinner.
Chu Dichi held her hand and walked in the courtyard. The candlelight stretched their shadows very long, overlapping each other, as if they could walk to the end of their lives.
Just like an ordinary couple.
Eat, take a walk, and chat.
That night, Chu Dichi was extremely gentle, and the places where his palms rubbed left tender red marks on the porcelain-white skin.
"Xiaojiu, I prepared a gift for you."
"What?"
"Put out your hands. I want two."
When he stretched out his hands, they were tied up with a long silk ribbon and hung on the head of the bed.
"?"
Got fooled.
He reached under the bed and pulled out a carved secret box. He smiled evilly, "I bought back the things you threw away on the island in the middle of the lake. I even bought double the amount."
Chu Li's face turned red, and she couldn't twist her hands away, so she kicked him.
Not serious.
"Let me go, I want to sleep!"
The man held her ankles and tied a ribbon around them. "It just so happens that we can sleep together."
"Let me go...Uncle..."
"No."
Never let go for a lifetime.
-
The clouds are hazy and the moonlight is dim; the spring scenery is rich and warm.
-
A thin quilt was placed across the two of them. The man turned sideways and used his arms as a pillow to hug the woman. The woman had her back to him with her legs wrapped around the quilt. Their hair was intertwined, like an entanglement that was difficult to sort out.
"Run..."
"Run... She's dead, why... Why is she the one who died! !"
"Tell me, Chuli!"
Chu Li's body shook violently.
The man woke up instantly, tightened his long arms, and looked at her sideways, "What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?"
There was a deep panic in Chu Li's eyes.
She dreamed that her hands were covered in blood.
It looked like she had killed someone.
Blood was flowing, bodies were falling, some were screaming in pain, some were in agony, some were questioning angrily... There was a void deep in her mind, which was the memory of her childhood.
But I can't remember anything.
What exactly did she forget?
"Xiao Jiu?"
Chu Dichi sat up worriedly, pulled up the bed curtains, and lit a candle.
"Uncle, I...I dreamed that we were separated..."
The man heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. "Can you be more ambitious? There are so many possibilities in the world, such as life and death, joy and sorrow, and separation, but you just had the most impossible dream."
"I……"
The man rubbed her head, and her nose felt strangely sour.
"Okay, I'll hug you."
You won’t have nightmares if you hold it while sleeping.
A good night's sleep.
The next day, early in the morning.
Before Chu Di Chi went to court, he gave many instructions: "Don't go into the kitchen again... Tell the servants... I have placed the jewelry and clothes you will use today on the dressing table, and wear the pair of shoes I picked..."
Chu Li turned over in bed sleepily and mumbled, "Got it."
Even my mother isn't so long-winded.
After Chu Dichi gave his instructions, he felt that there was nothing wrong, so he took Jingying and rode to the court.
But he didn't expect that halfway through the journey, the horse under him suddenly raised its tail and puffed in the street.
A foul smell scared away the people around:
"How can this be so uncivilized..."
"Who is it... It seems to be the regent. That's fine."
Chu Dichi's expression was slightly gloomy.
He had just bought new clothes, which matched Chu Li's. As soon as he went out in the morning, he was stained with a foul smell...
He dismounted from his horse and retreated far away with a gloomy face:
"This damn horse..."
"Master, calm down. Jiang Ye has been your warhorse for eight years. Maybe he got an upset stomach because of the overcooked food that Miss Xie fed him yesterday."
"... Clean this place up and don't ruin the reputation of the Regent's Palace." Chu Dichi covered his nose and went to court first.
"ah?"
Shocked Shadow: "Me?"
He is wearing new clothes today too!
It stinks!
Get up early in the morning to pick up manure...
