Rebirth of the Unworthy

Li Rongxiu didn't have any curiosity about the house before entering the door.He thought this house was just one of Shen Yujun's many properties, just like in his previous life, he also had several properties under his name for convenience.

But the moment Li Rongxiu walked into this kind of house carrying a plastic bag, he knew he was wrong.

The decoration of the house is not luxurious, and the decoration style is also a Mediterranean style that few people in China would choose in this era.The water blue walls and white fabric sofa decorate the living room warmly and brightly.Shen Yujun put the plastic bag in his hand on the bar of the open kitchen, turned around and opened the window, the cold wind of Wandong mixed with a few pieces of snow drifted in, and the white gauze curtains fluttered in the wind.Standing in front of the window, Shen Yujun said with a smile, "I haven't been back for a long time, and the air in the house is not good."

Li Rongxiu licked his lips, and his eyes fell on the photos placed on the small flower table next to the sofa-the photos looked very old, and the time had already turned dark yellow, but it could be seen that the people who preserved were very good.

In the photo, a woman is holding a boy who looks to be only four or five years old. The woman has bright eyes and a sweet smile. The child is also smiling, looking very happy.

Noticing Li Rongxiu's gaze, Shen Yujun smiled slightly and said, "That's my mother."

Li Rongxiu nodded, not knowing what to say.Shen Yujun continued to laugh and said, "You sit in the living room for a while, and I'll clean it up. This room has been empty for a long time, and there is too much dust."

Although Shen Yujun said so in his mouth, he knew very well in his heart that there would be no dust in this room.Because before he left the country, he had ordered someone to come over and clean the room regularly.This house represents his expectations for life and is full of his memories of his mother. He doesn't want these good expectations and memories to be dusted.

The reason why he said this in front of Li Rongxiu was just to create an atmosphere - an ordinary, safe and beautiful atmosphere of home.

Li Rongxiu watched Shen Yujun walk into the bathroom, fetching water and mopping the floor to wipe the house, and suddenly had the illusion that time is just right.

After sitting blankly for a while, Li Rongxiu simply said, "Let me wipe it for you too."

Shen Yujun hooked the corner of his mouth, twisted a rag for Li Rongxiu, and said with a smile: "Then please help me wipe the coffee table and table in the living room, and then we can wash vegetables and cook together?"

Li Rongxiu nodded, and picked up the rag to wipe it with great interest.It's just that he didn't do housework in his two lifetimes combined, so he had to learn how to do it like a servant on TV and at home.It's just a picture of a gourd, Shen Yujun looked at Li Rongxiu's earnest expression of wiping the table with a rag, and couldn't help but be moved by Li Rongxiu's principled and strong execution——

Wipe the tabletop as soon as you wipe the table, and don't even wipe the lower corners of the tabletop and the legs of the table. It really hasn't been done.

However, Li Rongxiu still did it with gusto.Shen Yujun also watched with relish.

After brushing the house and mopping the floor, the two went into the kitchen and began to wash and pick vegetables.Shen Yujun found two aprons from nowhere, one with a sky blue pattern with white clouds and one with an off-white pattern with checkered stripes, and asked with a smile, "Which one do you choose?"

"Off-white." Li Rongxiu's masculine aesthetics made such a choice, Shen Yujun smiled, and put on the apron for Li Rongxiu with his own hands, bypassing Li Rongxiu's slender and flexible waist, and tied two thin pockets on the back of his waist. bow.Then she put on the sky-blue apron, turned around and said with a smile, "Help me tie it."

Li Rongxiu didn't think much at all, bowed his head and tied a bow casually.After finishing the tie, I took out my mobile phone and took a picture. After thinking about it, I ran into the house and took several pictures, and named it "The Fruit of My Labor".

Shen Yujun watched Li Rongxiu busy in the living room, smiled and took out the ingredients from the plastic bag.

Seeing this, Li Rongxiu ran back erratically and asked, "What am I doing?"

Shen Yujun took out some dishes and baskets from the cupboard, rinsed them with detergent, put them on the bar, and said with a smile: "Help me unpack the ingredients, wash the vegetables, and put the fish The meatballs and sliced ​​beef and mutton are served on separate plates."

After a pause, he changed his mind and said, "Forget it, you help arrange the fish balls and meat slices first, and I will wash the vegetables."

Shen Yujun was afraid that Li Rongxiu hadn't washed the dishes before, and the two of them would have a stomachache if they didn't wash them clean.

Li Rongxiu was quite familiar with the job of arranging cards, so he nodded immediately and started working without a second thought.

Shen Yujun also washed the vegetables neatly with his hands and feet, and then put the vegetables in the exquisite bamboo and rattan vegetable basket.

Then he started to take out all kinds of seafood and began to prepare the bottom of the pot.After boiling the bottom of the pot on the stove, the two went back to the living room to watch TV.

Li Rongxiu took out various snacks from another plastic bag, and when he was about to start eating, he heard Shen Yujun's order: "Eat less, or when the hot pot is ready, I won't be able to eat anymore."

Li Rongxiu nodded, thinking that I should eat a little more to avoid stomach problems later.

Shen Yujun saw Li Rongxiu's simple plan at a glance, looked at him with a half-smile, and said nothing.I just secretly thought that you would regret it later.

Sure enough, after more than half an hour, the seafood pot bottom soup cooked by the reputation began to emit a strong fragrance.This kind of temperature is mellow and thick, and the fragrance is incomparable.Li Rongxiu smelled this delicacy with his nose, and felt that the potato chips and shrimp crackers in his mouth immediately tasted like wax.

He secretly regretted looking at the half-full packages in the trash can, and suddenly felt like he had shot himself in the foot with a rock.

Shen Yujun smiled secretly in his heart, but said calmly and naturally, "I'll go get the dipping sauce, Xiuxiu, do you like chili?"

Li Rongxiu nodded, "I like chili and mahjong."

Shen Yujun smiled and echoed, "Me too."

He went back to the kitchen and started frying chili oil in a hot pan.The orange-yellow transparent cooking oil was poured into the stainless steel pot, and soon it made a sizzling sound. Shen Yujun poured the chili noodles that had been prepared a long time ago into it. In an instant, the indescribable spicy aroma permeated with the sizzling sound, and he was greedy. Li Rongxiu almost drooled.

He put down the potato chips in his hand, walked to the door of the kitchen on his slippers, and watched Shen Yujun make dipping sauce with his arms folded.

Under the bright light, Shen Yujun was wearing a sky-blue apron. The immature pattern on the apron matched him, but it didn't make people feel naive or low-end at all. On the contrary, it made his already fierce temperament change. Be gentle and calm.It is like a jade that has been continuously polished in the river water to become smooth and smooth, exuding a unique charm leisurely.

As if aware of Li Rongxiu's scrutinizing gaze, Shen Yujun turned his head and smiled brightly at Li Rongxiu.In an instant, an indescribable handsome amorous feelings filled the corners of his brows and eyes.His brows drooped inadvertently, and his long, thick eyelashes formed two small fan-shaped shadows on his eyelids, making him look soft, tender and affectionate.

It seems that cooking such a meal for him is the happiest and most satisfying thing in the world.

For some reason, Li Rongxiu felt that a certain corner of his heart was lightly hit by a drumstick, or lightly scratched by a dog's tail grass, or lightly scratched by a kitten's paw...

Anyway, there is a feeling of numbness, numbness, softness and itchiness, passing through my heart quietly.

Shen Yujun looked at Li Rongxiu's blank look, and the smile on his face became brighter.The whole person also seems to be a big sun emitting a blazing yellow light, blooming wantonly with its own hormones.

I saw him pouring sauces of various colors into the sea bowl from time to time, and throwing them into the pot for frying bit by bit, his movements were as chic and neat as flowing clouds and flowing water, and he was indescribably handsome and natural.

Soon, a dipping sauce mixed with the flavors of various ingredients was ready.

Li Rongxiu sniffed, shook his head, and shook away the trace of strangeness that had been lingering in his heart just now.He asked, "How do you make this sauce? I've never eaten it before."

"Didn't I say that this is my exclusive recipe." Shen Yujun smiled, pointed to the casserole on the stove and said, "The bottom of the seafood pot is also cooked, we can cook it now."

While speaking, he signaled Li Rongxiu to bring the newly prepared sauce to the dining room, while he picked up the bottom of the seafood pot and followed him.

After that, he took out the brass pot that he bought specially back then from the cupboard, and even took out a five-jin bag of charcoal from the utility room. Li Rongxiu almost stared out of his eyes with everything he had done.

"Your family still has copper pots and wooden bamboo charcoal? How did you think of buying these things?"

"Because I love to cook, when I have nothing to do, I will go outside to Taodeng for good things - not to mention copper pots, our family even has all the barbecue utensils in the county town. If you like it, come to our house for barbecue that day ——Just eat it on our balcony.”

"It's really good." Li Rongxiu shook his head, only thinking that Shen Yujun is the one who really enjoys life.He had so many properties under his name in his previous life, and he just went to sleep occasionally, and his real use was similar to that of a hotel room.Even if friends have a party for dinner, they usually order it from the hotel. How can I expect Shen Yujun to go through so much trouble.

Li Rongxiu looked at the dazzling array of ingredients on the dining table, swallowed his saliva, stroked his half-full stomach, frowned and said, "There are so many things, we can't eat them, right?"

"That's why I told you to eat less snacks just now, and you weren't happy. Now you know that I didn't coax you?" Shen Yujun rolled his eyes, and his tone was full of grievances of "not knowing good people".

Li Rongxiu smiled guiltily, and quickly said: "I was hungry just now..."

After thinking about it, he said again: "Why don't we call Zhao Qijun, Xin Mengmeng and the others and ask them if they are coming, or else so many things will be wasted."

Shen Yujun was naturally unwilling.However, he also understands that he can't clearly express his rejection of Li Rongxiu's social circle, and even has to work hard to integrate into it.

Therefore, he not only showed his willingness to agree on the surface, but even suggested: "Why don't you call Brother Rong Yu and Brother Rong Jia as well, I don't think they may be able to eat enough."

Li Rongxiu nodded, and just as he was about to lower his head to dial the phone, he heard Shen Yujun say: "Why don't you call Zhao Qijun and the others, and I'll call Brother Rong Yu, and invite uncles, aunts, grandparents, after all, I stayed at your house In a first month, one should also fulfill the friendship of the landlord, right?"

Shen Yujun thought in his heart that he could take the opportunity to please his father-in-law, mother-in-law and brothers-in-law.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Li Rongxiu put down the phone and said, "Then you call my eldest brother first. If my grandparents and parents agree to come over, I won't call Zhao Qijun and them."

In order not to let Zhao Qijun and the others feel reserved in front of the elders.

Shen Yujun nodded, picked up the phone with a smile and dialed Li Rongyu's number.

A few minutes later, Shen Yujun put down the phone and said: "Brother Rong Yu and Brother Rong Jia promised to come over, and by the way, they will bring cousin Rong Hao and Rong Mei. But uncles, aunts and grandparents will not come. They said that the evening is over I’ve eaten it, I don’t want to eat more, tell us to have fun.”

Li Rongxiu nodded and said with a smile, "Then I'll call Zhao Qijun and the others."

Shen Yujun watched Li Rongxiu call with excitement, boasted to his friends about his craftsmanship, and invited a group of friends over for dinner. He was extremely proud in his words, and smiled knowingly.

That's all, anyway, his original purpose was to be by Li Rongxiu's side, to make him happy, to accompany him to be happy, so that he can trust that he likes him and even falls in love with him slowly, and then the two of them will live a peaceful life together.

Although the current development is somewhat unsatisfactory, Li Rongxiu seems much happier than before.

For Li Rongxiu, who likes to be lively by nature and likes to call out friends, maybe getting along with family and friends is the happiest.In this case, he tried to integrate into it.

After all, Shen Yujun already understood from his parents' short-lived love.In real life, many times companionship is more important than romance.
