60s Splendid Life

Wrapping his hands in gloves, he opened the door of the box. Lu Jin reached in and took out the cake inside. The cake embryo still needed to be processed. He spread a thin layer of cream on the outer layer of the cake. The cream was filled with peaches. The pureed meat is beaten together, so after the cream is spread, the whole cake exudes a peachy milky fragrance.

The things were prepared and taken out from the space, so after going out, he went into the kitchen and pretended to be busy in the kitchen for a while before bringing the finished cake and sugar water to the house.

This time, when I came in, I heard someone talking in the next room, and it seemed that I woke up from sleep.

Putting the things in his hands on the table, Lu Jin poked his head into the room and took a look. Shen Xing was talking to his grandma, and their little Baoer was lying on his side listening to others talking.Seeing that the two children on the bed had woken up, he smiled and asked, "Are you awake? I made sugar water and cake, do you want to eat it?"

As soon as Xiao Bao'er's eyes caught him, she immediately turned over and sat up on the bed, about to crawl under the bed.

"Hey, don't worry, don't worry." The bed the old lady slept on was a bit high, and Lu Jin was afraid that the child would fall, so he hurriedly walked over and picked up the child who was about to get off.

"Brother Xiaojin, I want me too." As soon as he heard that there was something delicious, little boy Shen Xing also changed from lying down to sitting up, and also wanted to crawl on his brother Xiaojin.

Lu Jin hugged one in his arms, and another was hanging on his body... The weight that life can't bear, he couldn't even stand up straight.

Fortunately, when the old lady saw this, she went over and grabbed Shen Xing, and pulled him down with a smile.

"Don't climb on your little brother Jin, come down." Grandma Shen was afraid that her little grandson would fall, so she quickly pulled him back, then looked at Lu Jin and asked, "Why are you running to get food again?" Ah, the two of them ate zongzi earlier."

"Oh, I touched my stomach, is it still bulging?" Lu Jin reached out to touch the stomach of their little Baoer, and then reached out to touch Shen Xing's stomach, which made the two children giggle.Their little Baoer's belly is flat, and Shen Xing's kid's belly is a bit bulging, but it probably isn't because they haven't digested the rice dumplings.

"You two get up, go out and put some water."

Empty the water in your stomach and see if you can eat something else.

Lu Jin carried their little Bao'er out to pee outside, and Shen Xing's kid ran out with him, pulled up his pants and ran back inside after peeing.

The old lady also came out of the house, fanning the wind with her cattail fan still in her hand.

The summer sun is shining, and this time of the afternoon is the hottest time of the day. People will sweat all over when sitting indoors.

"Both of you drink some sugar water first and then eat the cake." Lu Jin scooped up a little sugar water from the pot with a spoon, brought a bowl to the old lady, and shared a bowl with each of the two children.

There is a six-inch small cake on the table, with a layer of light pink cream on the outside of the cake, which looks very beautiful.If there are strawberries, it will be more beautiful to spread a layer of strawberries on top.

Children love cakes with a sweet and greasy taste.

The two children sitting on the edge of the table were drooling at the cake, their eyes were shining.Lu Jin thought it was funny again, and discussed with the two children: "You guys drink sugar water here first, and I'll ask brother Shen Yu if you want to come out and cut the cake together. Can we cut the cake later?"

Shen Xing wanted to show a sensible and obedient side in front of his favorite brother Xiaojin, so even though he really wanted to eat cake, he nodded obediently, "Brother Xiaojin, go and come back quickly." He wanted to eat it quickly cake.

Xiao Baoer looked at his brother and said nothing.

"Be good, wait a minute." Lu Jin knew that their little Bao'er was also very well behaved, so he reached out and touched the child's face, telling him to wait here with his grandma and brother, and then he walked behind.

Shen Yu sat in the study and wandered away, looking out of the window, he didn't know what he was thinking.

When Lu Jin came, what he saw were two people looking out of the window with a look of fugue. The rare thing is that this person was not reading a book this time, and there was a radio on the desk, but there was a rustling sound at the moment, probably I can't receive the radio station anymore, but the owner has no intention of turning off the radio.He stood outside the window, blocking the man's sight, and the man's eyes fell on him, and the eyes seemed to ask why he was here.

Shen Yu reached out and turned off the radio, the rustling sound disappeared immediately, his eyes fell on Lu Jin's face, and he asked, "Is there something wrong?"

"I cooked sugar water and baked cakes, do you want to eat together?" Lu Jin asked.

"No, you guys can eat." Shen Yu shook his head, declining Lu Jin's invitation.

"Oh. Okay." Although a little disappointed by the other party's rejection, Lu Jin still remembered the reason for his visit, took out a pocket watch from his pocket and put it on the table, and said to Shen Yu with a smile: "I went out to buy a watch today Yes, I return this pocket watch to you, thank you for lending it to me for such a long time, and now it is returned to the original owner."

"If you don't come out, I'll go over and cut the cake with them first, and come out later when you want to eat." He saw that Shen Yu seemed to be in a bad mood, and he didn't know why the other party looked like He looked in a bad mood, and he wasn't ashamed to ask.Lu Jin knew that the best thing for him at this time was to leave a private space for others to be alone and not to disturb others.

"Okay." Shen Yu's eyes shifted from the pocket watch on the table to Lu Jin's face, and when he saw the other party smiling at him, he turned around and left. Then he reached out and picked up the pocket watch, and put it back without looking at it. Go inside the drawer and close the drawer.

Just listening to the news on the radio made me a little uneasy. Another reason is that he called home twice in a row. The person who answered the phone was the nanny at home. His mother was not at home. He asked the nanny about his mother Where did it go? Every time the nanny said that his mother had gone out to meet friends.

He always felt that there was something going on in the family that was hidden from them, and he didn't tell them. Even when he and his brother were sent back to grandma's place years ago, his father didn't tell them the truth.

If something really happened at home... Shen Yu found that he didn't have any ability to help the family at all, and this was what made him most upset and helpless, even powerless.He took a deep breath and let it out, but the uneasiness that was pressing on his heart did not disappear, it was still heavy.

***

After going out, Lu Jin cut a small piece of cake for the two children and the old lady, and he got a small piece for himself. He put away the remaining half, not daring to eat too much for the two children.

Little Shen Xing still wants a piece of cake after eating, and he circles around him, saying all kinds of good things about him, which really makes him want to laugh.However, Lu Jin acted as if he didn't understand what the child said, and resolutely refused to give him any more cake. The child looked disappointed.

Their little Baoer also looked at him eagerly with a pair of big eyes.

Of the two children, one puts his cleverness in his mouth, and the other puts his cleverness in his heart. Lu Jin can see clearly that he is determined not to be fooled.But in the end, unable to resist the attacks of the two children, he took out two fruit candies from the empty bag and gave one to each of them, which brought smiles to the faces of the two children again.

"You two are playing here." Lu Jin carried little Bao'er to sit on the mat on the floor. There were a lot of toys on it, and it looked like Shen Xing's kid had moved it over, causing a mess.

Seeing his younger brother sitting on the mat, Shen Xing also took off his shoes and sat on it to play with his younger brother.

Let the two children play there, Lu Jin sat next to the old lady, sat and chatted with the old lady, and looked at the two children by the way, and soon he found that the two children were playing together, a lot Shen Xing always let and coaxed his little brother.

Probably because of their own and family reasons, their little Baoer has been a bit introverted since he was a child. Apart from sticking to his own family, he doesn't like to play with outsiders. Every time he comes here, he plays by himself. There are too many, and it is unlikely that we can play with Shen Xing.As for the child Shen Xing, probably because he was spoiled by his family, he has a little domineering temper, but he is also innocent and kind. He is really kind to the children he likes, and he will take out all kinds of toys for the children to play with.

There are two children, one is obsessive and the other is not talkative, but in the end the quiet child could not withstand the attack of the pestering child, and the two children played together again after a while.

Probably the world of children is like this, right?

Seeing the two children playing together and listening to their conversation, Lu Jin couldn't help but laugh.

It wasn't until the afternoon when Lu Jin was cooking in the kitchen that he saw Shen Yu come out, and this person returned to the same appearance as when they first met, or not, more precisely, he was in a bad mood and didn't want to Talk, don't want to pay attention to anyone, including him.

"Or I'll be fine, why don't you go out and have a rest?"

"It's okay, I'll come."

The kitchen knife in his hand was snatched away. Lu Jin was not too relieved. He stood aside and stared. Seeing that the man's kitchen knife almost missed his finger, he was so frightened that his heart almost didn't stop. He pulled Shen Yuna The hand of the kitchen knife, "Be careful!"

"Forget it, forget it, you'd better put it down and let me do it, you go out and don't come in." Lu Jin suspected that if this person stayed here for a few more minutes, his heart would stop in shock and he would be blown away. go out.

The person who was thrown out and stood outside pursed his lips and said nothing: "..."

So this day's dinner was finished by Lu Jin alone. No one was around, and he cooked faster by himself. Before the sun in the yard moved away, he cooked the dishes. up.
