Chapter 214: A World for Two “Sister, what do you want to do in the future…
"You can do whatever you want in the future, but for now, don't think about that. Think about more important things."
Fuli: "What?"
Nezha: "Now that the crisis has been resolved and Bai Shanjun is one of us, can we go back to our own home tomorrow?"
Living in the palace these days has been very inconvenient with so many concerns!
Fu Li knew what he meant, but pretended not to know. She nodded seriously and said with a hint of worry, "That's right. They're cultivating new varieties on the farm outside the city. I haven't been to see them in the past few days, so I don't know how they're doing."
Nezha's smile fell, and he rested his elbows on the table, cupping his face and offering it to her: "Facing a face like this, is all I can think of those seeds on the farm?"
Fu Li held back her laughter, supported her chin with one hand, and carefully admired the face.
The oval face with soft lines, the thick and sharp eyebrows, the phoenix eyes that look particularly sharp when she is serious, the high and straight nose bridge that reveals pride, and the plump red lips with moderate thickness, each of them is in line with her aesthetic taste.
But what is most intoxicating is the cinnabar mark between the eyebrows, which looks like rouge dripped on fresh snow. It is so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off it.
As Fu Li watched, she lost all desire to joke. She couldn't help but raise her hand and gently stroke the cinnabar mark, her eyes flowing like spring water.
Nezha held his breath and carefully felt the cool temperature of her fingers with thin calluses, and the gentle force as if a feather brushed across them, which made him feel itchy between his eyebrows and in his heart.
After a while, he couldn't help but cover her fingers and press down hard. But the increased pressure in his hands could only relieve the itch on his forehead, but not his heart.
He suddenly felt a little thirsty, but he didn't want to pay any attention to the cold tea on the table. He just stared at her tender and moist lips with burning eyes. His phoenix eyes, which should have been sharp, now revealed a blurred desire.
“Sister, sister…”
A large hand with a slender and soft hand slid from the center of her eyebrows to her cheek. He rubbed her palm vigorously, and couldn't help but kissed the warm palm, uttering a coquettish murmur from his mouth, but he didn't express his desire directly.
But his eyes were so expressive that Fu Li felt as if her whole body was soaked in warm water, warm and numb.
She suddenly wanted to kiss his eyes, so she did. Her slightly moist lips fell on the thin eyelids, and her trembling long eyelashes brushed against them. At that moment, she suddenly understood his desire.
The four lips finally met. One wanted to test it gently, but the other one was like a sweet rain, exploring desperately, wanting to grab more.
The candle in the bronze palace lantern slowly burned out, but the palace maid who was guarding outside the door kept her head down, too shy to come in and take her place.
After an unknown amount of time, the clouds cleared and the rain subsided, and the eunuchs carried hot water to the side room. The maids watched the shadows reflected on the window lattice as the tall man carried the limp woman to the side room, then hurried in. Someone replaced the candles, and someone else made the bed.
Their movements were light and quick, and after they finished cleaning up, Nezha just came back carrying the sleepy Fu Li.
The maids all lowered their heads, bowed silently and retreated, closing the door lightly.
Nezha held Fuli and gently placed her on the soft bed. The sinking force aroused her vigilance. She opened her eyes with difficulty, and when she saw the familiar face, she relaxed instantly.
"It's okay, go to sleep." Nezha lay down on his side, patting her gently while slowly holding her in his arms.
Fu Li rubbed her body unconsciously, counting the familiar heartbeats, and fell into a deep and sweet dream.
The next day, Fuli got up late as expected.
Nezha was fine, but he didn't want to get up because Fu Li was not awake. Ying Zheng sent people to ask several times, and the answer he received was the same: the two gentlemen are still sleeping, please wait patiently.
As a result, after waiting for a long time, I was hit by a bolt from the blue.
Fu Li: My dear disciple, the crisis is over. I am leaving the palace. You don't have to pretend to be sick anymore. Are you surprised? Are you delighted?
Ying Zheng: ???
——No, it’s only been a few days and you’re in such a hurry to leave. Isn’t I your most beloved Zheng’er?
In response, Fu Li said: "Of course you are my favorite, Zheng'er, but I also have my most beloved Zhazi. I've thought it through. Life isn't just about struggle, it's also about enjoyment."
Amidst Ying Zheng's indignation and Nezha's complacency, the couple happily left the palace, went to the farm to observe the progress, encouraged the farm boys, and then packed up their things to go for a picnic in the suburbs.
The sky is blue, the water is clear, and the grass is green.
Most importantly, the rabbits lurking in the grass are fatter than each other.
Nezha caught two of them, grilled one and stewed the other.
After the couple finished their delicious meal, they discovered that one of the rabbits was a female and there were seven little rabbits in the nest.
Fu Li: "Those little rabbits are so pitiful. How can they survive without their mother?"
Nezha stroked his chin and said seriously: "Perhaps, we should give them a hand."
Fu Li: "For example?"
Nezha: "Help them reunite with their mother as soon as possible."
Fu Li: “???”
Nezha: “???”
The two looked at each other for a moment, each one more innocent than the other.
A moment later...
Fu Li: "I think what you said makes sense."
Nezha: "Then I will take action."
Fu Li: "But I can't eat anymore."
Nezha: "Then take it back and eat it in the evening."
The two had a great day and returned at sunset before the city gate closed, bringing back seven little rabbits that were less than ten days old.
The seven little rabbits finally escaped the disaster because they had a truly loving Ao Cunxin at home.
When she heard the servant say that the Lady and the Lord had returned from outside, she remembered her duty to "protect the Emperor personally" and immediately went out to greet them, complaining, "Lady, how could you go out without me? What if we run into danger?"
Fu Li couldn't explain to the little girl what "two-person world" meant, so she chose to change the subject.
"Look, what is this?" She handed over the wicker basket containing the rabbit, which she had woven herself.
"Ah, what a cute little rabbit!" The little pink dragon's eyes sparkled. He carefully took it and asked with joy and gratitude, "Lady, is this for me?"
Seeing her like this, Fu Li was too embarrassed to say, "I wanted you to help take it to the kitchen," so she nodded, lying in her conscience. "That's right. Today we went to the suburbs and came across these little rabbits. They were so pitiful without their mother to take care of them, so we brought them back. Cunxin, are you willing to take care of them?"
——As for how their mother died, you’d better not ask.
In fact, with Cunxin's very limited social experience, she didn't think of asking.
After hearing Fu Li's words, she felt as if she had received a huge responsibility. She hugged the willow basket containing the rabbits tightly and nodded vigorously: "Yes, I will take good care of them!"
Fu Li then said, "First, you have to build a suitable nest for them, and then learn how to raise them."
Seeing the little pink dragon at a loss, Fu Li kindly suggested: "You can go to the family elder, he will teach you what to do."
"Yeah." Xiaolong left happily.
Nezha, who had been trying to hold back his laughter, finally laughed heartily, and asked as he laughed: "Sister, isn't it not good for you to trick a little girl like this?"
Fu Li glanced at him and said, "You laughed so loudly, and you didn't let her go."
The unscrupulous couple looked at each other for a moment and laughed heartily at the same time.
Cunxin is simple but smart. With the guidance of the elders at home, she quickly built a nest for the baby rabbit with big blue bricks.
Rabbits love to dig holes, and their reproduction rate is astonishing. If the nesting materials are not strong and thick enough, I am afraid that within two years, the entire mansion will be hollowed out by them.
Three days later, Cunxin finished cleaning up the rabbit nest, but only five of the seven rabbits were left. One died of diarrhea after drinking too much cold water, and another died of starvation because it couldn't get enough food.
Looking at the two corpses that had been gnawed to pieces by the other rabbits, Cunxin was completely stunned. "Patriarch, was this really done by the little rabbits?"
——It is such a cute rabbit, small, white and furry, it looks adorable no matter how you look at it.
The elder nodded, stroked his beard and said, "Rabbits are like this. They give birth to one litter a month, twelve litters a year. One litter dies of cold, and one litter dies of heat, so you can only keep ten litters.
The remaining rabbits must also be well cared for, ensuring they always have grass to eat and feeding them as little water as possible. If the dead rabbits are not removed in time, other rabbits will eat them.
The cute image of the little rabbit collapsed bit by bit in the little pink dragon's heart, making her feel a little distraught.
Fu Li was sitting in the yard playing chess with Nezha. Seeing her approaching in a daze, as if she had suffered a great blow, he casually asked, "What happened? Who did you lose the fight with?"
"No, I didn't fight." Cunxin shook his head and finally returned to reality. He ran forward in three or two steps and recounted the history of the collapse of the rabbit's image with lingering fear.
Nezha lowered his head to suppress his laughter, pretending to be studying the chess game seriously.
Fu Li said, "You can't judge things in this world by appearances. If you like the cute image of rabbits, don't overthink it and just keep them."
Cunxin said with tears in her eyes, "But rabbits are no longer cute in my heart."
Fu Li: "Then don't raise them anymore. Send them all to the kitchen for extra meals."
Cunxin hesitated: "Isn't that too cruel? I even built a nest for them."
Fu Li asked, "Have you ever had spicy rabbit? Have you ever had cold rabbit? Have you ever had three-cup rabbit?"
"...No." Cunxin subconsciously wiped the corner of his mouth and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that his saliva was not flowing down.
Fu Li tempted, "Then try it."
Cunxin nodded dazedly, then suddenly came to her senses. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Fuli say, "By the way, help me with something."
The little pink dragon immediately forgot about the rabbit and stood straight with full energy, "My lady, please give me your orders!"
"Don't be so serious, it's just a small matter..." At this point, seeing the disappointment on the little pink dragon's face, Fu Li changed the subject, "But for me, this matter is very important."
Cunxin revived with full blood: "You command."
"What beautiful shells do you have in the West Sea? Bring me one."
"Yes, I will do it right away!" After saying that, he disappeared with a whoosh.
"Huh?" Fu Li wanted to tell her that she could use the transmission function of her mobile phone, but she was too fast.
But Nezha was very happy: "Finally, the fool left. Let's continue our world of two."
