【New Red Mansion】Perfect World

Xing Xiuyan laughed and said, "You are someone who has never been in love, and you are telling others about your experience?"

Pin'er also smiled: "That's right, you should find a boyfriend first and see how long it will take for you to get bored. Then you can talk about me!"

After that, all three of them laughed. Su Miaoyu used a fork to pick up the pasta on the plate. She was very sensitive to numbers: she would count the steps she took when walking, and the pieces and bites she ate when eating.

After dinner, they hurried to prepare the dough. Two kitchen machines were ready to knead the dough at the same time. Xing Xiuyan was very organized. She used an electronic scale to weigh the flour, then used a measuring spoon to add yeast, and a measuring cup to add milk.

Then he found a disposable bag of ingredients from the drawer, filled it with walnuts, almonds, and cashews, and gave it to Lin Pin'er to help crush. Then he went to prepare the cake flour.

The crackers are made with cake flour, but no machine is used here. The whole process is stirred with a mixing spoon.

Two hours later, all the dough needed for tomorrow is ready. Those that need to be proofed are placed in the proofing cabinet, and those that need to be shaped are placed in the freezer after being shaped.

"Okay, I'll whip the cream when I get here tomorrow morning. This way I'll have more time tomorrow." Xing Xiuyan said as she took off her apron. After washing her hands, Pin'er took out her phone and replied to Shui Rong, saying he would come to pick her up.

Miaoyu considerately helped Pin'er untie the straps on the back of her apron.

"Shall we take you home?" he said as he helped her take off her apron.

"Shui Rong said he would be here soon."

"..."

Xing Xiuyan saw that Su Miaoyu wanted to tease Lin Pin'er again, so she interrupted Miaoyu's spell and asked, "What best friend did you mention earlier? What kind of best friend am I to you?"

"Of course she's my best friend."

Xing Xiuyan picked up Miaoyu's apron that she had left on the table, and while hanging it up, she asked, "So how many close friends do you have?"

"At the moment, it's just you... two." She looked at Pin'er before adding the last word, but Pin'er was absent-mindedly looking at her phone and didn't hear it at all.

After hearing this, Xing Xiuyan went upstairs happily. She wanted to check the lights that needed to be turned off on each floor, because the machines in the house could not be powered off, so she couldn't turn off all of them.

"We should have designed all the lights into one circuit. It would be very troublesome to check them every time." Xing Xiuyan muttered after she came back.

"Our Jia Lan can make that kind of small program, which can be operated on the computer to help you control the lights."

Miaoyu's eyes lit up: "Then let him help us tomorrow."

"Sure, it seems that we just need to write a program, and it can be controlled by a mobile phone. He helped me write it last time, and now I don't need to go out when I want to turn off the lights in the yard and at the door." The three of them had already walked out of the house while chatting. Pin'er hurried to open the door to the yard, and Shui Rong said he had arrived.

As soon as I opened the gate, Shui Rong was waiting outside.

"How did you find it so easily?" Pin'er walked closer to him.

"You pointed the way clearly, and this is the only place that's lit, so it's easy to find."

Shui Rong saw that she was wearing very little, so he unbuttoned his coat and held her in his arms.

Pin'er hugged Shui Rong gently, and then said in a soft nasal voice: "I really don't like winter. I'm very afraid of the cold. But now it seems that winter also has one good thing, that is, it's too cold, so we have a reason to hug and keep each other warm."

Shui Rong frowned slightly, but it didn't affect the arc of his mouth at all: "Then you won't hug me in the summer?"

"Who wants to hug you in summer? It's so hot."

"Then I'll turn up the air conditioner in the summer so you can hug me."

“Yo yo yo…” Miaoyu listened to their conversation and clicked her tongue behind them.

Pin'er immediately jumped out of Shuirong's arms, ran over and held Miaoyu's arm shyly.

"I can't stand you guys acting like this. Wait until you leave me before hugging me again!" After saying that, he pulled Pin'er and walked a few steps faster.

Xing Xiuyan locked the door behind them and quickened her pace to catch up with them. The three girls walked side by side, holding each other's arms.

A few minutes later, Miaoyu was sent to the gate, and the Su family's car was already waiting on the roadside.

Shui Rong and Pin'er sent Xing Xiuyan to Jia Yingchun's place again. Jia Yingchun lived not far from the main building, right next to Tanchun's courtyard. Along the way, Shui Rong held Pin'er's hand and put it in his coat pocket.

After watching Xing Xiuyan enter the yard, the two of them walked back.

"Are we eating pink pasta in their restaurant today?" Shui Rong asked as they walked.

"Well, I secretly learned a very simple one and will make it for you someday."

Shui Rong chuckled, unfolded his coat and wrapped Pin'er in his arms: "So you went to learn how to cook? I thought you were just trying to get a free meal."

"I also learned how to make cookies today. I put the ingredients in and stir with a spoon. Then I use a piping bag to squeeze them into the mold. I did the whole process by myself." Pin'er said while gesturing.

Shui Rong embraced her flailing arms and said, "It seems that you have unlocked a new cooking skill. When can I eat the cookies you made?"

"I'll make it for you tomorrow." She answered quickly.

"By the way, Su Miaoyu told me a secret today. It can't really be called a secret, because she didn't say I can't tell anyone else, but I won't tell anyone else either. I'll only tell you."

"Why are you talking like a jingle? Tell me what's going on."

Lin Pin'er lowered her voice and whispered in Shui Rong's ear: "Su Miaoyu said she was a reborn person. She was not the reborn person arranged by Keqing, and she didn't know Keqing. Moreover, she said she had been reborn for several lifetimes."

Shui Rong was extremely shocked after hearing this. He thought that the people in this world were arranged by Keqing, after all, this place was created by her. But he didn't expect that there are such people. Oh, and there are people like my brother who travel through time, so everything is possible.

"Why don't you speak? Are you shocked?" Pin'er interrupted his thoughts.

"I hope you can forget that you were reborn, so that you won't be interested in any information related to this matter. I don't know Su Miaoyu, I just know that I want to protect you. In the future, try not to talk about this with other people. If they want to talk about it, just listen and don't say too much, let alone let your mind run wild." Shui Rong was afraid that she would be misled. At her age, it was the time for her to establish a correct world view. If she was won over by others and instilled with world-weary ideas, it would be very troublesome in the future.

"I understand. I won't mention it again."

As they were talking, the two had already walked to the gate of the yard, unlocked it with their fingerprints and entered. Before they entered the house, their phones began to ring with continuous message alerts.

After entering the house, I turned on my phone and saw that it was indeed the "Family Art Research Society". In just a short while, I had received dozens of messages.

It turned out that the tenants in the garden began to move in today. Some of them chose to move in tomorrow like Xue Baochai, so Li Wan posted a new group announcement:

Li Wan: [Recently, many young neighbors have moved into the garden. After discussion, we have decided to expand the scope of the "Family Art Research Society". We will hold a meeting in Tanchun's yard at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. I hope everyone can attend on time.]

Li Wan's group announcement seemed to be a good start, and Xue Baochai quickly took the opportunity to invite everyone to her housewarming party. So everyone started chatting.

Jia Baoyu: [@薛宝钗 I will definitely be there, congratulations in advance! ]

Jia Tanchun: [I wonder what the new neighbors are like? Are they easy to get along with? How old are they? If we organize activities together in the future, will there not be enough space in one yard? ]

Xue Baochai: [I don't know about others, but my sister Xue Baoqin will move in with me. She is also versatile and has a good personality. You will be able to meet her tomorrow.]

Jia Baoyu: [@王熙凤, Mr. Wang, do you have any information about those new neighbors? Please send it to us first! I am really curious now.]

Wang Xifeng: [We need to keep the customer information confidential.]

Xue Baochai: [@Jia Baoyu, you really have nothing to do. Since they have moved into this garden, they will get to know each other sooner or later. Why are you in such a hurry now?]

Pin'er just smiled as she looked at her phone.

"What are you happy about?" Shui Rong asked.

"Xiao Baoyu was scolded again."

"I heard that your sister-in-law is going to organize activities in the garden. In the future, all activities in the garden will be under her management. It is said that she has officially started working."

"Did you hear what your second sister-in-law said?" Pin'er guessed.

"Well, originally your second sister-in-law wanted to organize this event. Then the decision-makers at the top gave it to her for some reason."

Shui Rong took off his coat and hung it up, then walked to the kitchen to get some water.
