The cold wind blows off the leaves outside, and the inside of the glass room is as warm as spring.
After Jiang Rui asked this sentence, it seemed that even the flowers and plants in the room were quiet for a moment.
Huo Changyao looked a little surprised, and then he pinched her cheek lightly with his fingers, "What nonsense are you talking about, eldest brother treats you well, and is greedy for repayment?"
Jiang Rui didn't stomp her feet in annoyance as usual. She tilted her head on the pillow and rubbed the place he had pinched just now before asking, "If you don't repay, why are you being so kind to me?"
Huo Changyao frowned slightly, originally with a somewhat casual expression, but also solemnly, he squatted in front of Jiang Rui with one knee and one leg, his eyes were level with her, and said sternly: "Xiao Qi, why do you have such a thought? "
"Isn't it true?" Jiang Rui tilted her head.
Huo Changyao couldn't help but touched her head and said, "I don't know how others are doing, but eldest brother treats you well and doesn't want your reward, or in other words, I've already gotten it."
"But I didn't give you anything." Jiang Rui said.
Huo Changyao curled the corners of his mouth lightly, his age is not really old, but his facial features are cold, and his face usually has no expression, he looks extraordinarily serious like an elder, but when he curved his mouth, his smile It was actually warm, like the feeling of the sun shining on the body.
Jiang Rui likes the sun, and her eyes are glued to his face unconsciously.
He said: "You can think of it this way, the big brother's wish is to hope you are happy, and after I did this, you are really happy, I achieved what I wanted, and this is the reward."
Jiang Rui immediately retorted: "Your wish is not good for you."
"Who said that?" Huo Changyao said, "I am happy when I see you happy. So you see, the ultimate purpose of what I do is actually to make myself happy, and you don't have to think about anything in return."
This statement of his is simply a fallacy, and there are many loopholes. Jiang Rui can refute it again, such as why she is happy, he will be happy, and for example, there are many ways to make himself happy, why do you have to take so many detours, choose The most troublesome one
But she didn't ask that. She just said after being silent for a while, "What if one day, your wishes change?"
Now he wants her to be happy, so her happiness is the reward. If one day in the future, he no longer needs her to be happy, at that time, will he ask for something else in return, or just treat her well
Huo Changyao pondered and said, "Big brother doesn't dare to promise you whether that day will come, but what is certain is that if there is, it must be a long, long time later, perhaps big brother was so confused at that time that he forgot. Who you are, forget who Xiao Qi is, otherwise, why don't you want Xiao Qi to be happy?"
He said self-joking words, but with a serious expression on his face, Jiang Rui laughed when he heard it.
"So happy to hear that Big Brother is confused?" Huo Changyao scratched the bridge of her nose.
Jiang Rui didn't answer, avoided his hand, put the pillow on her head, and said something irrelevant, "I want to sleep here for a while."
The topic turned so fast, Huo Changyao didn't feel abrupt, nodded, and took a hat woven with flowers and plants from the flower stand: "Put this on your face, don't get sunburned, ring the bell when you're hungry, and have lunch at noon. Someone will come up to call you, big brother has something to do today, how about we watch the sunrise together tomorrow morning?"
Jiang Rui nodded, hugged the pillow and lay comfortably on the fleece blanket, covered her face with the straw hat, and waved at him, "Goodbye, big brother."
Huo Changyao covered her with a straw hat and blanket before leaving.
Knowing that the conservatory was completed, Huo Changlin dragged Xu Hansheng over to eat dinner that night, and visited the conservatory by the way.
As he watched, he shook his head and clicked his tongue, "I really didn't see it, our eldest brother also has a nerve named Romantic in his head."
"Very good, Xiao Qi should like it very much." Xu Hansheng looked around and nodded.
"Who doesn't like it? If someone throws so much money at me, I like it too."
Xu Hansheng took a step to the side, away from him.
Huo Changlin was curious: "What are you doing?"
"You smell."
"What's the smell? I just took a shower before going out." Huo Changlin sniffed around himself, and even raised his armpit to smell it.
"The smell of copper." Xu Hansheng laughed.
Only then did Huo Changlin react, "Okay, old sixth, you are very good, dare to laugh at your second brother! Come on, second brother has an ancestral fist here to reward you two."
After talking and laughing, he went downstairs, just in time for Huo Changyao to arrive home, and the four of them had dinner together.
When he left Huo Mansion, Huo Changlin kept muttering: "I can't come in the future, I'll be blinded a few more times. Did you find out, the sixth, I haven't seen you for a few days, the eldest brother and the seventh are more numb than before."
Xu Hansheng wondered: "Is there?"
"It seems that you are the one who is really blind." Huo Changlin gave him a look of contempt, "You have to learn to observe, you have to have a keen sense of smell. A few days ago, eldest brother was only helping Xiaoqi peel the shrimp, and today he even helps her with soup. Well, Xiao Qi took a look at which dish, and immediately brought it to her, that state of ecstasy clearly didn't take the two of us in his eyes."
Xu Hansheng said, "Big brother likes Xiaoqi, it's normal to do so."
"I know it's normal, but you can see that they don't have anyone else, I'm embarrassed to look at them." The cheeky person said so.
"Then second brother, you should watch less, beware of your blindness." Xu Hansheng said with a smile.
"Hey, Liu Liu, you really want to be beaten today!"
The day before, he said that the sunrise would be beautiful, but at four or five in the morning the next day, Huo Changyao and the two got up. He was neatly dressed, and Jiang Rui was still wearing pajamas.
Seeing that she was about to go out like this, Huo Changyao went back to the room and took a coat of his own to wrap her around. When he was wearing the clothes, the hem reached to the calf and wrapped around Jiang Rui's body, and the whole body happened to be tightly wrapped from head to toe. In fact, only one head is exposed.
"Whose winter melon ran out?" Huo Changyao said solemnly.
Jiang Rui glared at him, tilted her head and left. Because the hem of the clothes is too long, it walks staggeringly. From the back, it looks more like a winter melon.
Huo Changyao showed a smile at the corner of his mouth. Seeing that she was about to go upstairs, he was afraid of stepping on the hem of his clothes and falling, so he quickly stepped forward and guarded by the side.
It was still early, the two of them were sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows on the east side of the glass room, and looking at the past, the mountains were like ink, silently hidden in the dawn, the sky was dark blue with a little purple, and countless stars were overhead. flashing.
After a night, the heat gathered during the day in the conservatory basically dissipated, and the glass was covered with white frost.
"Is it cold?" Huo Changyao asked.
Jiang Rui shook her head, "Is Big Brother cold?"
"It's not cold." Huo Changyao touched the back of her hand, letting her feel the temperature of her palm.
The two gossip without a word, and the color of the sky changes silently, from dark blue and purple to dark blue, and then to blue. The deep blue is like an endless sea. From the center of the ocean to the coast, the color in front of me became lighter.
After a while, a touch of pale golden white appeared in the sky, and both of them stopped talking and stared into the distance.
The sun rose on the top of the mountain, and the golden red light mixed with warmth shone on the body. Jiang Rui narrowed her eyes slightly, and a hand suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, blocking the light.
Huo Changyao said, "Don't keep looking at it, be careful with your eyes."
"Understood, let's go downstairs for breakfast, I'm hungry."
"It's still early, Lao Zhang probably didn't get up, I went to the street to buy." Huo Changyao stood up.
Jiang Rui held him back, "There must be something to eat in the kitchen. Let's look for it and heat it up by ourselves."
Huo Changyao frowned slightly: "Yesterday's, not fresh."
"Oh, it's alright, the weather is so cold, it won't be bad after only one night, eldest brother come over quickly." Jiang Rui was really hungry and didn't want to continue chatting with him, so she trotted downstairs.
Huo Changyao had to keep up, "Go slowly and be careful to fall."
Jiang Rui skillfully rummaged through boxes and cabinets in the kitchen. Although she hadn't cooked for a long time, her craftsmanship in the first world was still there, not to mention she simply started a fire.
She found a few crab meat buns, vegetable buns, and bean paste buns, put water in the pot and steamed them, and used the broth left over from the night before, fearing that it would not taste good enough, she washed them and threw them in the small greens.
She had quick hands and feet, and Huo Changyao wanted to help, but there was nowhere to help.
Jiang Rui pushed him aside, lifted the lid of the pot, and threw a bun from the inside, "Brother, go on!"
Huo Changyao subconsciously reached out to pick it up, the steamed buns just out of the pot were soft and hot, he could only toss back and forth between his hands, his shoulders shrugged slightly, he was so embarrassed, but he was still wearing a straight military uniform. The contrast is even greater, Jiang Rui smiled and covered her stomach.
Huo Changyao shook his head helplessly, and when the heat was no longer so hot, he put the bun to her mouth.
Jiang Rui took a bite, and the thin bun skin was wrapped with full filling, which made people satisfied with just one bite.
"Yes, big brother eat." She pushed his hand back again.
Huo Changyao was stunned when he saw the teeth marks on the bun, and wanted her to continue eating, but she had already picked up another bun with chopsticks, bit it in small bites, and ate it while blowing.
He stared at the steamed bun again for a while, then bypassed the opening and carefully ate the rest of the bun. When the steamed bun was eaten to the point where only tooth marks were left, he opened his mouth wider and swallowed it whole. .
The chef of Huo Mansion, Lao Zhang, got up and yawned as usual to prepare for breakfast. He just stepped into the living room, but heard a movement in the kitchen. His first reaction was that a burglar had entered. He immediately hid behind the vase, and carefully poked out head off. Because the light was not bright enough, he could only see two figures sneaking around in the kitchen.
Today's thieves are really bold, and they even stole things to Huo's mansion!
Lao Zhang slandered, compared the number of people on both sides, consciously unable to beat, and silently slipped out to find someone.
So, when everyone in Huo Mansion took the guy and rushed into the house, shouting that the thief was bold, they saw their commander and wife, each holding a bun, and turned their heads at the same time.
