Chapter 29 The Great Harmony of Life is Suspended Again
Zhou Qingti was wearing his loose bathrobe, with water droplets still on his hair and collarbone.
When Zhou Qingti reached out to take the pajamas next to him, he could smell the scent of shower gel on her body, a faint scent of almond milk.
He grabbed her forearm, and the delicate and smooth touch made him subconsciously use more force.
He lowered his voice and teased her: "Have you finished washing? Isn't it time to..."
Zhou Qingti's face turned red instantly. Since that time when the two of them almost had a fight, they never talked about it again.
This day has finally come.
Lu Yanzhi exerted a little force and Zhou Qingti fell on his legs. The smell of her body domineeringly penetrated Lu Yanzhi's nostrils.
When their eyes met, the air around them seemed to be sucked away.
Zhou Qingti felt his heart beating violently and simply closed his eyes.
Lu Yanzhi moved closer to her, his warm breath spraying on her nose, and then he kissed her lips.
Zhou Qingti's body was a little stiff, and she slowly hugged his waist.
Lu Yanzhi has a narrow waist, so it feels great to hold her in your arms.
Lu Yanzhi just kissed her gently and slowly, holding her neck with one hand to pull her closer to him.
The collar of Zhou Qingti's bathrobe had slipped down, revealing her graceful collarbone and tall breasts.
Lu Yanzhi let her go, their noses touching: "Is it over?"
Zhou Qingti's eyes were filled with tears, and it took her a long time to realize that he was asking about her menstrual period. "Not yet." It was the last day.
For the first time, she felt that her period came at a really bad time.
Lu Yanzhi kissed the tip of her nose, his eyes gentle: "What a pity."
Lu Yanzhi is not a gentle and patient person, but towards Zhou Qingti, he is willing to use his gentleness and patience on her.
Zhou Qingti felt the changes in his body, her ears turned red, and she stood up with her hands on his shoulders and pulled up her collar.
"Um...I'm going to change into my pajamas, and then you can take a shower."
Zhou Qingti felt a little guilty, as it was Lu Yanzhi who had been giving and she was enjoying it all the time.
Including this incident, there are always some surprises every time. She is not a person who is obsessed with desires, and she will not think about it after the atmosphere passes.
It seems that Lu Yanzhi is not as lustful as she is. It seems that if they really have sex in the future, it will be more harmonious.
…
The next day, Zhou Qingti slept until he woke up naturally, and Lu Yanzhi was no longer by his side.
He accompanied the old lady in her morning exercises in the garden.
When she packed up and went downstairs, Lu Yanzhi and his grandmother were practicing Tai Chi in the pavilion, and Lu Zheng went fishing.
There was an exquisite incense box on the sandalwood table, with wisps of green smoke wafting in the air.
Zhou Qingti couldn't tell what the fragrance was, he just felt it was light and elegant.
Zhou Qingti also joined them and practiced a few moves. In order to teach her, Mrs. Lu practiced for a while longer.
Zhou Qingti was not allowed to have breakfast until her stomach growled.
For breakfast, we had chicken soup wontons made by the chef. The chicken soup was clear and the wontons were plump and chewy.
It is adorned with tender egg shreds and fresh shrimp skin, which adds a lot of flavor to the wonton stew.
Zhou Qingti ate twenty of them, and she was so full that she held her stomach and cried out that she was dying of fullness.
Seeing how delicious she was eating, the old lady unconsciously ate two more.
After having breakfast with the old lady, Lu Yanzhi drove Zhou Qingti back to the city.
Zhou Qingti has been quite busy recently. She is planning to sell European bread in the store and is currently recruiting a chef.
And her mother asked her to go home a few days ago.
She could guess that they were probably going to ask about her married life, but she and her parents didn't have a relationship where they could talk about everything.
It can even be said that there is a sense of distance within intimacy.
In the past, Zhou Qingti was obedient and the family seemed to be very happy.
Later, Zhou Qingti was unwilling to take the civil service exam and wanted to become a baking apprentice, and the fundamental problems in the relationship between mother and daughter finally emerged.
During that period, the relationship between mother and daughter was very tense. Mother Zhou felt that it was crazy for Zhou to give up her stable job and start a business.
Mother Zhou said earnestly, "Mom and Dad have connections at work. If you pass the exam, it will save you a lot of effort if you want to get promoted. Do you understand?"
"Will your father and I harm you? Your major in Chinese Language and Literature can help you get into many jobs."
It was Zhou's mother who decided to choose this major. At that time, Zhou Qingti didn't have her own ideas. She had good Chinese grades and was not opposed to studying this major.
But she couldn't stand writing materials every day to take the civil service exam. Besides, she had her own hobbies and ideas and was no longer the high school student who knew nothing.
Zhou Qingti later moved out: "I don't want to follow the rules of the system and do things I don't like."
She really couldn't handle the social interactions in official circles. When she was a child, she felt suffocated when eating with people like Uncle Director Zhang and Aunt Secretary Li.
Mother Zhou is too strong-willed and always interferes with her daughter's decisions, even if her daughter's decision is unimportant and she just listens to her.
This is also a common problem among many Chinese parents.
Mr. Zhou has worked in a government agency for many years, and Zhou Qingti doesn't like his formal style.
He often spoke in an official tone at home, but it has been much better in the past two years. In the past, if Zhou Qingti did not do well in the exam, he would have to write a report and reflect on it for him.
After becoming an adult, Zhou Qingti rarely communicated with his parents and never told them many things.
She called it a belated rebellious period, like a rope that had been tied for too long and finally untied one day.
But family members always need to communicate, so she agreed to go back and have dinner with them tonight.
"I'm going to my parents' house for dinner tonight."
Lu Yanzhi looked at her and said, "Then I'll go with you. I haven't visited my uncle and aunt for a long time. They must think their daughter married the wrong person."
Zhou Qingti pursed his lips and smiled, his unhappy mood was somewhat dispelled by his joke: "Then let's go together."
Zhou Qingti thought that Lu Yanzhi would leave after he sent him back to the store.
Unexpectedly, he followed her out of the car: "I don't have anything to do today, I'll accompany you in the store."
It wasn't a good idea to send him away, and she was also afraid that he would be bored, so she finally called Lu Yanzhi to the operation room to teach him how to make desserts.
"Why don't you try making a blueberry cake yourself?"
Lu Yanzhi rolled up his sleeves excitedly: "Okay." It was his first time trying to make dessert.
After being with Zhou Qingti, he had many firsts, and every new attempt felt good.
Zhou Qingti gave him a cake base, took out the cream from the refrigerator and placed it in front of him: "Assemble it yourself."
"They are all ready-made. Are you coaxing a child?" Lu Yanzhi said with some disgust.
Zhou Qingti, whose thoughts were exposed, smiled awkwardly, "So you want to do something difficult?"
Lu Yanzhi raised his eyebrows, "Of course, didn't you say I was a chef?"
It's true that he is fat and out of breath.
However, she has all the materials and can afford his waste.
"How about making an Oreo salted cream cake roll?" Actually, this is not too difficult.
"Okay, I quite like this taste." Lu Yanzhi was eager to try it.
Zhou Qingti took out disposable gloves and gave them to him, and found an apron for him to wear.
Lu Yanzhi obediently lowered his head and bent down to let her put an apron on him.
He didn't use any hairspray today, so his hair fell naturally, dancing with his movements.
Zhou Qingti smelled the scent of shampoo on his hair, the same smell as on her head.
Zhou Qingti quickly helped him tie his apron and then took the materials needed to the workbench. Before Lu Yanzhi started, he specifically told her not to interfere under any circumstances.
Zhou Qingti teased him jokingly: "I know, Chef Lu, I trust you 100%."
"Sieve in the low-gluten flour and mix in a z-shape until there is no more flour. Add the egg yolk and mix in a z-shape until the batter is smooth." Zhou Qingti carefully taught him step by step. "The z-shape, the letter z."
Lu Yanzhi slowly wrote the letter "z" in the wash basin as if practicing calligraphy.
This scene was so funny that Zhou Qingti took out his mobile phone to record the whole process.
"Hand faster."
"Drop two drops of lemon juice into the egg whites, then beat them at high speed until large bubbles appear."
Zhou Qingti guided him step by step.
Lu Yanzhi had never been involved in the field of cake making. He was a little curious, "Why add lemon juice?"
Zhou Qingti blurted out: "Neutralize the alkalinity of protein." What Lu Yanzhi didn't understand was what she was best at.
"Okay, add one-third of sugar."
Lu Yanzhi looked at the candies and asked, "Do you need so much candies?" He felt that the candies he ate were not very sweet.
"Yes, this is a low-sugar recipe."
Lu Yanzhi suddenly felt a little hesitant to eat the cake.
Zhou Qingti held up her phone and instructed him, "Alright, when lines appear, add sugar and corn starch for the third time and beat until there are small, supportive hooks."
Lu Yanzhi followed the instructions one by one, and each step was done in detail.
It's just that the step of mixing the egg whites and egg yolk paste evenly by stirring and cutting was a bit clumsy.
The oven has been preheated, and Lu Yanzhi looks forward to watching the batter he made being baked.
Zhou Qingti sent this video to the old lady.
[Grandma, I'm teaching Lu Yanzhi how to make a cake.] If she often shares some things about her and Lu Yanzhi with her grandma, she might not scold Lu Yanzhi all the time.
Lu Yanzhi would be in a good mood and not vent his anger on her if he wasn't scolded. This is called saving the country in a roundabout way.
The old lady immediately made a video call, so Lu Yanzhi's cake-making experience this time became a live broadcast.
