[Fanwai-Southwest House Daily] Is there any rice washing
In the Southwest Mansion, the most important thing is all kinds of poisonous insects.
In the early morning, before the sun came out, Aunt Jin took a dustpan and a broom and swept away all the snakes, scorpions, spiders, and wild centipedes in the yard, and poured them back into the Five Poison Pond. Are you ready - counting the time, it's time for the two people in the room to wake up.
The weather in late summer and early autumn was just right, neither cold nor hot, and Chu Yuan slept soundly. Duan Baiyue leaned to the side, raised his hand and patted his back, and by the way, looked up and looked at the big blue python on the beam - running out eight times a day, the stone on the cylinder couldn't stop it.
Ah Qing hissed out the letter, and threw his head back and forth. He was very reluctant to be put back into the tank again. After a stalemate, he saw that Duan Baiyue didn't seem to want to drive him away, so he carefully untied it in circles. Tail, trying to lie down on the bedding.
Duan Baiyue raised his finger and pointed at it, and he was too far ahead!
Ah Qing: "..."
After a while, Chu Yuan buried his face in his chest and rubbed his throat hoarsely: "Morning."
"Morning." Duan Baiyue helped him gather his hair, and then glanced at the blue python that was hanging down most of the way under the roof beam.
Ah Qing slowly but firmly slid down a few inches, and didn't leave!
Duan Baiyue's brain hurt, and just wanted to raise his hand to sweep it out, but Chu Yuan had already turned over and looked lazily at Fang Liang and opened his eyes.
Ah Qing still turned her head to look at him, eager to get closer, and she threw herself down with a shake of her body. There was no top on the cool couch. No matter how fast Duan Baiyue shot, he would only have time to hug its giant tail.
"Cough." Chu Yuan lay on the bedside and coughed, almost suffering from internal injuries.
Ah Qing wrapped his shoulders affectionately, hissing, and tightening.
Chu Yuan struggled and was weak: "Duan Baiyue!"
…
After half a column of incense, Aunt Jin came to the door after hearing the news, complained for a long time, and dragged Chu Yuan to have breakfast. Liu Duan Baiyue squatted in the courtyard alone, staring at A Qing with big eyes.
The servants in the mansion sighed and sighed, making a sin. It is estimated that the prince will have nothing to eat this morning.
"Aqing is the little snake that the prince picked up from the back mountain when he was a child." Aunt Jin said while serving the porridge for him, "I thought it was a highly poisonous green eye, but the prince was reluctant to show it to others, so he kept it there. I kept it on the bed. Later, I couldn't hold it back, and in a blink of an eye, it was several feet long, so I found a special tank, but it has a good temperament, and the people in the house like it very much."
Chu Yuan took a bite of the bun and said calmly, "Well."
"Hurry up and eat." Aunt Jin smiled and handed over the chopsticks, "I think of Canglan Pavilion at noon, then I have to leave after dinner, and I'll send someone to prepare a sedan chair."
Not long after Aunt Jin left, Duan Baiyue entered the dining room, raised her hands wisely and said, "Aqing has returned to the tank." He did not follow.
Chu Yuan hooked his fingers at him.
"I'll remember to close the window next time." Duan Baiyue sat beside him and asked casually, "Why are you alone, auntie and the others?"
"Everyone went out, prepare the sedan chair." Chu Yuan helped him peel the marinated eggs.
"What are you preparing for the sedan chair, are you going out?" Duan Baiyue was a little surprised.
"Well." Chu Yuan replied, "Go to Canglan Pavilion."
"Where to?" Duan Baiyue's men paused.
Chu Yuan said: "Canglan Pavilion."
"Well, what are you going to do there?" Duan Baiyue was helpless, "Is it what Master told you again?"
Chu Yuan said: "Master said that everyone in the southwest is looking forward to this day. It only comes once a year, and there are many lively watching."
"That's the Hundred Insects Association, you are not allowed to go." Duan Baiyue put down his chopsticks, "There are poisonous insects everywhere, you won't like that kind of place."
Chu Yuan: "..."
Chu Yuan said: "I thought there was at least a cage in it."
"Valuable goods naturally have cages, but only valuable goods have cages." Duan Baiyue said, "On weekdays, the poisonous insects in this Southwest Mansion are carefully raised and naturally clean, but it is not necessarily outside, the ground is continuous. The sky is flying like crazy, and if you get hit by sticky poisonous insects on your face, your aunt will have to talk about it for a long time when you come back."
Chu Yuan: "..."
"It's good, why do you suddenly want to see bugs." Duan Baiyue fed the last spoonful of porridge in his bowl.
Chu Yuan paused and said, "I thought you would definitely want to go on this occasion."
Duan Baiyue: "..."
Chu Yuan pouted: "If you don't go, then I won't go." Look at what's not good, look at insects.
"Some people in the Southwest Mansion will go, Aunt Jin will go, Master will go too, and if there are rare goods, they will naturally bring back." Duan Baiyue said, "It's rare to have leisure recently, and I still want to take you to live in Yunshao Valley for a while. God, I didn't plan to go to Canglan Pavilion to join in the fun."
"Where is that?" Chu Yuan had never heard of it before.
"Good place." Duan Baiyue smiled, "No one can go in except the Duan family. You will know when you arrive."
so rare? Chu Yuan thought for a while, then nodded: "Alright."
The blue python slowly zigzagged past the dining room door, not planning to return to the tank.
Duan Baiyue: "..."
Chu Yuan said: "Call in."
Duan Baiyue asked curiously, "You mean Ah Qing?"
"Otherwise." Chu Yuan pushed him, "Hurry up."
Duan Baiyue hesitantly flexed his fingers and whistled beside his mouth.
Ah Qing immediately rushed in with a swoosh, turning over the wooden vase along the way, standing up and resting his head on Chu Yuan's knee.
Duan Baiyue held her forehead, why does this thing seem so imposing and arrogant.
Chu Yuan calmed down, stretched out a finger, and hesitantly touched the python's head.
Ah Qing seems to be enjoying it very much.
Feeling smooth to the touch, Chu Yuan calmly retracted his hand and wanted to wipe Duan Baiyue's body.
"How cool." Duan Baiyue took the opportunity to say, "Huoshaogu is a little hotter than other places, why don't you take Ah Qing with you?"
Chu Yuan said: "I have to make an inch."
Duan Baiyue: "..."
Why does this sentence sound familiar.
But even if it was an inch, Ah Qing was allowed to accompany him in the end. In the afternoon, Chu Yuan stood in the backyard wondering: "Did you go over there?"
"Come." Duan Baiyue took his hand and pushed open a dilapidated wooden door. Ah Qing climbed in first, and disappeared behind the bookcase, apparently there was a mechanism.
Duan Baiyue said: "Close your eyes."
Chu Yuan did as he was told.
Duan Baiyue approached and gave him a quick kiss on the side of his face: "Okay, open it."
Chu Yuan: "..."
Duan Baiyue innocently said: "You need blood to start the machine, so ask for some benefits first."
Chu Yuan frowned: "With blood?"
"Just a drop, otherwise the blood Gu that guards the gate will not be awakened." Duan Baiyue pierced his fingertips with a silver needle and dropped a drop of blood into the cup.
The bookcase trembled slightly, and a doorway appeared in an instant, and one had to bend over to enter. It was dark in the dark passage, and only the golden insect nest on the wall gave off a dark light. After walking for about a stick of incense, there was finally a light in front of it. A rope hung down from a height, and Duan Baiyue hugged Chu Yuan with one hand. , holding the rope in the other hand, jumped out of the dark passage.
The setting sun is about to set, and the red clouds on the horizon are burning like a fire that stretches endlessly. In the valley surrounded by green trees, a house is clean and exquisite, Ah Qing is coiling on the beam of the house, hissing letter.
"Do you still remember the valley when you were a child?" Duan Baiyue said with a smile, "I was thinking for a while that I would definitely bring you to this Burning Valley in the future."
"Is this the Duan family's secret place?" Chu Yuan asked.
"Hundreds of years ago, it is said that the ancestors wanted to avoid the war, so they built this square inch of paradise in the valley." Duan Baiyue took him into the house, "Do you like it?"
"Yeah." Chu Yuan brushed his fingers across the wooden frame, and there was not a trace of dust.
"There are dust-proof beads." Duan Baiyue said, "I'll go and cook some tea for you."
Chu Yuan looked at it for a while and remembered an important thing: "There are only you and me in this valley?"
Duan Baiyue nodded and said, "And Ah Qing."
Chu Yuan asked, "Can Ah Qing cook?"
Duan Baiyue: "..."
Chu Yuan: "..."
The big blue python slid into the house and started to doze off.
Duan Baiyue coughed twice: "Is porridge okay?"
Chu Yuan laughed: "What did you eat when you came here before?"
Duan Baiyue said as a matter of course: "Rely on Yaoer." Or Xiaoyu.
The ancients said that the younger brother does not need to be in vain.
Chu Yuan waved his hand to sweep him away and went to the kitchen by himself.
Duan Baiyue was suddenly shocked.
Chu Yuan stood in front of the rice vat for a while, then changed his mind and turned to go out: "Let's go back to the palace." He didn't want to wash.
Duan Baiyue smiled and pulled him from behind: "Since everyone is here, I have to stay at least one night, I will cook."
Chu Yuan disliked: "You seem to know what you said."
"At least it won't make you hungry." Duan Baiyue pressed him on the chair and sat down, looked around, and took off a piece of bacon from under the beam.
Chu Yuan hesitated for a long time, but couldn't help but ask, "Are you planning to cook something?"
Duan Baiyue paused: "otherwise?"
Chu Yuan sincerely suggested: "Why don't you just cook a bowl of porridge." This is good for everyone.
Duan Baiyue raised his knife and cut the bacon into small pieces, very neatly.
Chu Yuan supported his head with one hand and reminded: "Although I don't know how to cook, I have accompanied my aunt in the kitchen a few times. At least I know that this stuff needs to be steamed before frying."
Duan Baiyue: "..."
Chu Yuan was lying on the table smiling.
Duan Baiyue didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Standing in front of the stove, she didn't know how to continue. Ah Qing was sitting on the beam of the house. After watching it for a while, she felt bored, and began to doze off in a drowsy manner, showing no respect for her master.
Chu Yuan laughed enough, and just stood up and pushed him: "Go out."
Duan Baiyue said: "Huh?"
Chu Yuan pointed to Fang Liang: "Take it away together."
Ah Qing lowered his head innocently.
Duan Baiyue was startled: "You want to cook?"
Chu Yuan raised his eyebrows: "Guess."
Duan Baiyue: "..."
The sky gradually darkened, and the breeze was blowing in the valley. Chu Yuan leaned against Duan Baiyue's arms, and watched the sky and the river of stars scattered in the mountains. The whole courtyard was full of fragrance of flowers and plants.
"What are you thinking?" Duan Baiyue asked.
Chu Yuan said: "You."
Duan Baiyue pinched the back of his neck: "But I'm by your side."
"Well, you are by my side." Chu Yuan took his hand, clasped his fingers, and closed his eyes comfortably.
This is the best.
Ah Qing threw the plate under the cold collapse for a while, then slowly slipped out, put her head on Chu Yuan, and seeing that she was not pushed away, she shook her head and moved her tail again, trying to squeeze Duan Baiyue quite a bit. down posture.
Chu Yuan reached out and rubbed it, feeling it was cool, so this time he touched it for a long time before letting go.
The King of Southwest was deeply pleased.
If things go on like this, it won't take long, maybe you don't have to trouble my aunt to sweep insects every morning, and it's pretty nice to let go and crawl around in the yard, after all, it's colorful.
As for this day's dinner, was it a bit of mushy bacon rice, or grilled fish with wild fruits in the mountains, or the two of them just fell asleep hungry... Guess what
