Chapter 271 A Simple Dinner



After all, the weather is getting hotter and hotter now. If you sleep with a quilt in your arms, you will soon be sweating all over. It is better not to do that.

Perhaps because he had cried twice before and had spent a lot of energy, Zhao Tianrui was sleeping very soundly at this moment. Even though he frowned because he didn't find anything satisfactory, he still didn't wake up.

With Jianshu's soothing words, Zhao Tianrui slowly fell asleep again, his movements becoming quieter and quieter. Finally, he placed his hands on either side of his head, and after doing a split, he stopped moving. Only his belly rose and fell with his breathing.

Seeing Zhao Tianrui slowly stop struggling, Jian Shu soothed him for a while before stopping. After covering his belly with a thin towel, he gestured to Zhao Yueling and tiptoed out again.

After walking out of the room, he breathed a sigh of relief. Zhao Yueling behind him closed the door quietly, but even so, there was still a "squeak" sound from the door, which scared the two of them. Fortunately, there was no movement in the room.

"Huh~" Zhao Yueling patted her chest thankfully. Fortunately, she didn't wake up her brother, otherwise he would be in such a bad mood when he woke up. Tsk tsk...

Jianshu picked up the watch on the table and looked at the time. It was already five o'clock. It was getting late. She had to go back and cook.

I had originally planned to take Zhao Yueling and her brother back to eat together, but that’s not possible today. It seems we’ll have to do it next time.

"Lingling, it's getting late, I'll go back first. Among the things I brought are a few boxes of mung bean cakes, which should be eaten as soon as possible, as they won't keep for a few days. The rest are some seafood such as dried fish, dried shrimp, and kelp, which are all dry goods and can be kept for a long time. Remember to tell your aunt when she comes back." Jianshu said to Zhao Yueling while wearing his watch.

Zhao Yueling was drinking water when she heard her say she was going back. She didn't even drink the water, quickly put down the cup and said, "Sister Shu, it's already this late, why are you still going back? Stay for dinner today. Ruirui hasn't woken up yet. When he wakes up and finds out you're gone, he's sure to make a fuss."

"Forget it today. I soaked some dried squid and kelp before I came here. I won't stay for dinner. Maybe next time. As for Ruirui, it's already this late. When he wakes up, his uncle and aunt will definitely be back. He won't make a fuss with them around. Then you can give him a piece of mung bean cake and he will be coaxed into doing it." Jianshu shook his head and said.

She was waiting to go back and prepare something delicious, so there was no need for her to stay for dinner.

Since she had said this, Zhao Yueling did not force it anymore. There was no need for false politeness between them.

I sent Jianshu to the door, said goodbye, and watched him go away.

After leaving Zhao's house, Jianshu got on his bicycle and slowly drove home.

Then the sun gradually moved westward. It was not as scorching as it was at the end. The evening breeze blew on my face, bringing coolness, which was quite comfortable.

Looking at the streets on both sides, walking through alleys one after another, and admiring the scenery that is very characteristic of the times, Jianshu no longer felt the tiredness and heat he had felt when he came at noon.

Bicycles shuttle through the streets and alleys of the old Beijing city, with people walking or riding bicycles on both sides, and only occasionally a four-wheeled car passes by.

The same piece of land, but completely different lives in different eras.

Feeling the tranquility of slow life, Jianshu felt a little dazed. The era with bustling traffic and tall buildings in his memory seemed like a thing of the past life.

Fortunately, her memory has become much stronger in this life. Although it is not to the point of photographic memory, many things that had long been forgotten deep in her memory have been remembered again.

But those people, those things, and those regrets from her previous life are what she doesn't want to forget, so they are deeply rooted in the depths of her memory.

Even if I never see you again, I will always remember you.

After returning home, Jianshu put his bicycle under the porch and went into the kitchen to get busy.

Soon, stir-fried dried squid, spicy shrimp, cold kelp shreds, and seaweed egg drop soup were served one after another.

After cooking, Jianshu put the dishes into the space to keep them warm, then took her clothes and went directly into the bathroom in the space. She had sweated a lot today and her body was sticky. She would feel uncomfortable if she didn't take a shower.

It's still early and I have no appetite right now since I just finished cooking. I might as well wash my hair and take a bath first, and then eat slowly later.

He took out his iPad, fixed it with a stand, selected a comedy movie, turned on the shower, and started taking a shower while watching TV.

The sound of water in the bathroom and the voices of the people on TV mixed together, making it very lively.

An hour later, Jian Shu came out of the bathroom wearing a hair drying cap and pajamas.

After washing my face, doing my skin care and blowing my hair, another half an hour passed.

By the time we started eating, it was almost eight o'clock.

Jianshu set up a small table under the osmanthus tree, took out the food from the space and placed it on the table, took out a jar of wine and a glass, and prepared to feel the beauty of the "grape wine and luminous glass".

He took out a desk lamp and placed it on a corner of the table. After looking at it, he felt it was a bit monotonous, so he took out a short and fat vase and placed it on the table. There were already flowers in it. The white gardenias were blooming gorgeously, and the rich, fresh and elegant fragrance came over, which made people feel more cheerful.

Soon, a simple dinner was prepared.

The food has both flavor and mood. Under the warm yellow light, everything becomes soft.

At this moment, she couldn't help but think of someone. If he was there, would everything be more perfect?

After a moment of distraction, Jianshu took out his mobile phone and took a 360-degree photo of the food on the table, and one delicious photo after another came out.

If she were in the future, she would have to post a video on Douyin and spread it late at night, first to make those who are awake late at night greedy, and then to make them fat to death.

But now, these can only lie in the album and gather dust. I don’t know when they will see the light of day again, or like the thousands of photos before them, no one will care about them.

After taking a few more photos with the help of the light, Jianshu put down his phone with a little regret, picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

Alas, it would be great if someone took a photo of her, so that she could get full-body photos, half-body photos, back photos, and side photos. Unlike now, she can only get a few close-up selfies.

Jianshu was thinking about buying a camera while eating. She would ask Ding Ming next time he came to see if he could get a ticket.

Cameras aren't too expensive, a Seagull brand can be had for around 200 yuan. The main expense is the film required for later use.

After buying it, let Gu Mingjing practice his skills well, and then he can take all kinds of photos for her. Then set up a room at home to develop photos, so that she doesn't have to go to the photo studio to take photos anymore.

When the time comes, you can take as many photos as you want without having to worry about anything.

It makes me happy just thinking about it!
