Siheyuan: Cooking journey

Looking at Lou Xiao'e's painful face, He Yuzhu was very anxious.

Although he has maxed out his TCM skills, he still needs to be sick to show his abilities.

In this sudden situation, with his current level of ability, the only thing he could think of was to help rub the belly and massage it.

But now on the streets, there are strict controls on sexual matters between men and women. Even if they are a couple, they will be looked down upon if they act too intimately.

It depends on whether Lou Xiao'e is willing.

The Traditional Chinese Medicine skills need to be upgraded again to see if there are any special effects.

He Yuzhu was thinking in his mind, squatting next to Lou Xiao'e and patting her back gently.

Patting the back when the stomach hurts, a bit silly.

But it's better than just standing there and worrying and doing nothing.

This is at least a kind of psychological comfort.

He Yuzhu wanted to find something to do, so he said softly:

"Are you feeling better? Why don't you wait here? I'll get you some hot water to drink. It will stop hurting you."

Drink more hot water, this is a golden rule that applies at all times.

If you feel uncomfortable in your stomach after eating something cold, or if a relative comes to visit, a cup of hot water can help relieve the discomfort.

"Better……"

Lou Xiao'e lowered her head, feeling his gentle pat and care. She felt sweet in her heart and also found it quite funny.

Patting your back when your stomach hurts, what a stupid man.

But, I don’t know why, I suddenly felt less uncomfortable.

After waiting for a while, Lou Xiao'e felt much better and stood up.

After squatting for a long time, I stood up suddenly. My legs felt a little weak and I almost fell.

He Yuzhu was standing by and had no time to think about the charge of hooliganism. He subconsciously held her arm and let her half lean on him.

Lou Xiao'e's face turned red and her legs became weaker.

He lowered his head like a little quail, not daring to look at people.

"Are you okay?" He Yuzhu asked with concern.

"fine."

Lou Xiao'e pushed him shyly, and then felt that her behavior just now was quite embarrassing. She puffed up her cheeks and glared at him fiercely: "You stinking hooligan!"

"..."

He Yuzhu thought, if he hadn't helped her just now, would he have been directly sentenced to life imprisonment? Life imprisonment.

then.

Because of this sudden situation,

He Yuzhu did not go to Siji Changqing again and took Lou Xiaoe home.

She said she was okay, but He Yuzhu was not sure whether she was really okay.

It’s a long journey, and I don’t want her to endure it.

Back to the courtyard.

Lou Xiao'e was lying on her side on the bed, curled up, looking uncomfortable.

He Yuzhu looked at her and suspected that she had not told the truth before because she was shy.

No matter how you look at it, it seems like that day has arrived.

At this moment, it was too embarrassing to ask about such a private matter. If he did, Lou Xiao'e would definitely hum and call him a hooligan.

He Yuzhu thought about it and flipped through the bills in his hand.

Drinking more hot water is good advice, and drinking more hot water with brown sugar is the truth among truths.

Nowadays, who doesn’t understand this common sense?

Last time, the Lou family sent a lot of tickets, including sugar tickets, but they were all white sugar.

He Yuzhu hesitated for a moment, then took the ticket for half a pound of brown sugar that was about to expire and went out.

This ticket was given to me by my auntie when I cooked last time.

I wanted to keep it as a souvenir.

But on second thought, there is no point in saving this half pound of brown sugar.

Arrived at the department store.

Brown sugar is not rare, but tickets are precious.

Half a pound of brown sugar cost me 32 cents.

He Yuzhu bought another half pound of biscuits for 25 cents.

after come back,

He prepared some brown sugar water in an enamel pot, sat down beside the bed, patted Lou Xiao'e's back gently, and said softly:

"Drink some hot water, and you won't feel so bad." "Yeah."

Lou Xiao'e sat up, glanced at He Yuzhu who was right in front of her, her face flushed slightly, her eyes lowered, and she took the enamel pot.

She originally wanted to drink water, but when she saw the red color, Lou Xiao'e's face turned even redder involuntarily.

He blew lightly and took a sip.

The sweet taste spreads in your mouth and warms your heart.

Before she asked,

He Yuzhu confessed: "Last time, Yu Shui also had a stomachache after eating something cold, and the doctor said that drinking some brown sugar water would make him feel much better. I thought your situation was similar, so I bought some brown sugar."

"Ah."

Lou Xiao'e's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she was very shy.

I really want to tell him that I am completely different from that kid Yu Shui and I don’t need to drink brown sugar water.

But when I thought that he was a simple and rough man who might not understand even if I told him, and then thought about his thoughtful behavior, there was only sweetness in my heart and I didn't want to say anything.

Just thinking about the evening, Lou Xiao'e's heart began to beat faster unconsciously.

A peculiar emotion rose in my heart, and I felt inexplicably weak and powerless.

After Lou Xiao'e finished drinking the brown sugar water,

He Yuzhu took the cup and did not disturb her rest. He sat down at the dining table and flipped through a book boredly.

The room was quiet and filled with a peaceful atmosphere. He Yuzhu felt that this kind of life was very comfortable. He looked at Lou Xiao'e who was quiet and seemed to be asleep.

The hands that turned the pages of the book involuntarily became lighter.

Time passes quietly.

Bang, bang, bang, there was a knock on the door. ... The master came to the door.

He Yuzhu opened the door, heard about the treat, nodded and agreed.

What made him feel strange was that he was the one who had to cook the dishes even though they were treating everyone to a meal...

Who invited whom?

"Auntie has already prepared all the dishes. Just pack them up and we'll go over there."

The old man gave some instructions and turned back to his home.

He Yuzhu returned to the room and saw that Lou Xiao'e had already gotten out of bed.

"What's the matter?" Lou Xiao'e asked pretending nothing had happened.

In fact, she had woken up a long time ago, but in this quiet room, she and He Yuzhu were the only ones there. She felt inexplicably nervous and embarrassed to face each other, so she pretended to be still asleep.

"Go eat..." He knew she didn't understand.

He Yuzhu then explained in detail the custom of treating guests to a meal.

"When a family has a new daughter-in-law, they will often treat everyone to a meal with the people they are close to. Sometimes the party can last for several days..."

...

Lou Xiao'e blinked mischievously and asked expectantly, "Can we have fun for a few days too?"

"Just this once."

He Yuzhu reminded him, "Didn't I tell you yesterday that in this courtyard, only the old man's family and the deaf old lady's family have a good relationship with us. For the others, just nod and say hello when you meet them."

At first he was worried that Lou Xiao'e would be wronged if she lived in this courtyard.

But on second thought, the two of them went in and out together, and this courtyard was just a place to sleep at night, so that worry was unnecessary.

They were together every day, and with him around, no one in the courtyard dared to look at Lou Xiao'e badly.

In this case, it doesn’t seem to make much difference whether you change your residence or not.

After all, it's just a place to live.

Since it is a place to live,

He Yuzhu couldn't help but look around the room, thinking about cleaning it up.

Putting aside other things, at least you have to build a partition to divide the room into two, one side is the living room and the other side is the bedroom.

Everything was fine when I was alone before, but now I live with Lou Xiao'e.

It's not quite right to see the bed as soon as you open the door.

I was thinking about this.

He Yuzhu went to his uncle's house to help with cooking.

Dinner was mediocre, nothing special.

Lou Xiao'e tried hard to behave well. He Yuzhu was indeed quiet, but the deaf old lady was restless and kept making jokes. Every now and then she would say something silly, which made Lou Xiao'e roll her eyes.

After dinner,

He Yuzhu simply washed up and returned to the house. The situation was similar to last night.

After a long while, Lou Xiao'e came into the room, closed the door and turned off the lights.

The room was completely dark, and somehow, He Yuzhu's heartbeat suddenly accelerated...
