Accidentally Born in the ‘60s:
Because he ran too fast, Xi Junjie's cheeks were slightly red. He used to not sweat when running in the morning, but there were actually a few beads of sweat on his forehead.
Zhen Zhen looked at Xi Junjie with a slightly apprehensive and anticipatory expression, and suddenly smiled and let go: "Am I not quite like a girl?"
"No." Xi Junjie brought the bucket over, the weight in his hand made him frown slightly, and then looked at her helplessly: "But you can really entrust me to do this kind of thing in the future. ."
Zhen Zhen looked at him hesitantly, not sure if this counts as a confession, Xi Junjie's various performances in the past can tell that he likes her, but I don't know if Xi Junjie is shy or has other concerns, There has never been a formal statement. Just like the ambiguous period mentioned in later generations, the two carefully tested each other's minds, but they never dared to go further.
The breeze blew across her face, bringing the slight fragrance of flowers in the garden, Zhen Zhen suddenly raised her head and looked at Xi Junjie: "But how can someone who has no name and no title be so embarrassed to ask you to help me?"
Xi Junjie was stunned for a moment, and before he could react, he saw the beautiful and sweet girl in front of him suddenly looking at him with big eyes, with a bit of firmness in his tone: "Xi Junjie, I like you very much, would you like to? Don't want to be with me?"
Xi Junjie looked at Zhen Zhen in surprise, as if he couldn't believe his ears, so she also likes him? Xi Junjie's ears quickly turned red, he put down the bucket, reached out and touched Zhen Zhen's hair lightly, with a gentle smile on his face: "I should have said this first."
Suppressing the numerous thoughts in his mind, Xi Junjie quickly sorted out his thoughts, then knelt down on one knee, looked at Zhen Zhen and said slowly: "The first time I saw you was the first day of school, You walked into my eyes wearing a red wool coat, and at that moment I realized that I came to the world in this life to meet you. I don't know when I fell in love with you, but one day I found that I was always following you unconsciously. When you saw me, I knew that I had become a slave to love. But you are so beautiful and lovely, and no matter what you do, you are so enthusiastic. I am afraid that I am not the type you like, and I am afraid that the love I give you will not be as good as You are looking forward to the perfection. But I will not give up pursuing you because of this. If you are willing to give me a chance to be your boyfriend, I will try my best to be the best and give you the love you want. ."
Listening to Xi Junjie's confession, Zhen Zhen, who didn't blush when she took the initiative to fall in love with someone, suddenly felt her cheeks were hot, even if she didn't touch it, Zhen Zhen could imagine her blushing cheeks. Blinking bright eyes, Zhen Zhen felt a little shy for the first time, she tried her best to restrain her shyness and used ridicule to cover up her most uncomfortable feeling: "As expected of growing up in France, her confession is like a marriage proposal. , I'm a little shy."
I didn't feel that Zhen Zhen was destroying the atmosphere of her confession at all, Xi Junjie looked at Zhen Zhen tenderly and asked solemnly, "Then Miss Li Mingzhen is willing to give me a chance to make me your boyfriend?"
Zhen Zhen covered her face, as if she could hear a heartbeat like a drumbeat in her chest: "Okay."
In an instant, Xi Junjie felt as if he had heard the most beautiful voice in the world, he couldn't help looking at Zhen Zhen with a happy smile on his face. Zhen Zhen looked at Xi Junjie's smile, couldn't help but reached out and touched his face, she smiled happily: "You look too good-looking."
When the skin touched, Xi Junjie suddenly felt that the world was quiet, and everything around him seemed to be getting further and further away from them, Xi Junjie could only see Zhen Zhen in his heart, and the feeling of touching Zhen Zhen on his skin . Xi Junjie couldn't help but closed his eyes and quietly felt Zhen Zhen's soft palm gently caressing his face,
In this era, Zhen Zhen's actions can be said to be a bit bold, but he is used to the directness of Western society. Xi Junjie has no feudal and conservative thoughts about this, but likes the feeling of intimacy between lovers. He stretched out his hand to cover the back of Zhen Zhen's hand and felt Zhen Zhen's smooth skin, which made Xi Junjie's heart tremble.
Zhen Zhen grabbed Xi Junjie's hand with her backhand and pulled him up: "Okay, since the window paper has been torn apart, please help me bring the fish to the kitchen. If it's a little later, I'm afraid our lunch will be delayed."
"Okay." Xi Junjie agreed with a smile, seeing that Zhen Zhen didn't want to let go, he took her small hand and picked up the bucket with the other hand.
Although they said they were in a hurry to cook, the two were still enjoying their alone time. When he thought that the girl he had liked for so long had become his girlfriend, Xi Junjie couldn't help but bow his head. Looking at Zhen Zhen, for fear that all this is her own fantasy.
Seeing that Xi Junjie looked at herself from time to time, Zhen Zhen raised her head and smiled at him: "Do you like looking at me so much?"
"Yes." Xi Junjie's ears are still red: "I really like it."
"I like to see you too, you look too good-looking." Zhen Zhen's smile was like a cat that stole fishy: "This time I took advantage."
"Zhen Zhen..." For the first time calling Zhen Zhen's nickname, Xi Junjie didn't feel uncomfortable, but felt very natural. He looked at Zhen Zhen's smiling eyes, with a bit of doting on the corner of his mouth: "You are welcome to take advantage of it at any time."
The two of them didn't let go of their clasped hands until they saw the kitchen, reached out to help Zhen Zhen brush the hair that fell on her cheeks, and Xi Junjie asked her softly, "What are you going to cook? Can I help?"
"Huh? You know how to cook?" Zhen Zhen looked at him with some surprise, in the old Li's house, Zhen Zhen's brothers were all good at hunting, fishing and dragging firewood, and they could help make a fire when they were cooking. They stir-fry, as hard as getting them to embroider.
"Well, I often cook at home." Seeing that there was no one outside the kitchen, Xi Junjie lowered his head and whispered in Zhen Zhen's ear: "I also want you to try my craft."
The warm breath blew on Zhen Zhen's earlobe, and the ticklish feeling spread from the earlobe to the cheek, causing a flush. Seeing Zhen Zhen's fair skin with a touch of red, Xi Junjie struggled to look away, for fear that he would not be able to bear to kiss her cheek any longer.
The breathing in her ears gradually disappeared, Zhen Zhen couldn't tell whether she was relieved or a little disappointed, she couldn't help but raised her head and rubbed her ears, looked up at him, looked at each other, and the two of them looked at each other again. They are entwined together, and it seems that they feel very relieved just by looking at them.
"Zhen Zhen, what are you looking at? Come and see how the duck is doing." Ming Bei came out of the kitchen and saw the two of them standing not far away. He didn't feel anything wrong at all, but instead shouted in a careless manner. With a snort, he took a special hook to turn the duck in the oven by the kitchen.
Zhen Zhen and Xi Junjie looked at each other and smiled, the two walked quickly to the kitchen. Zhen Zhen used her consciousness to scan the duck from the inside to the outside, and immediately shook her head: "It's not time yet, add some more firewood."
"Hey!" Ming Bei responded, and threw a dozen or so of the pear tree trippers prepared by Zhen Zhen, and then came over to take the bucket from Xi Junjie's hand: "Have you caught so many fish again? Didn't you make the carp yesterday?"
"Yeah! I'll keep that one first." Just as Zhen Zhen was about to walk into the kitchen, she suddenly stopped and patted her forehead angrily: "The shrimp pots that were in the water were brought back." She Shaking Mingbei's arm, he smiled sweetly at him: "Good fourth brother, you can go for a run."
"You girl." Mingbei shook his head helplessly, just about to habitually reach out and rub the top of Zhen Zhen's head, suddenly a sharp gaze came over, Mingbei subconsciously retracted his hand, I looked up and saw nothing wrong. He scratched the back of his head in confusion, and put the matter behind him, shouting to the kitchen, "Second brother, come out and kill the fish." He hurried to the garden.
Although Mingbei didn't find anything wrong, Zhen Zhenke could see Xi Junjie's actions clearly, she made a face at him and said three words with her mouth: "Little...heart... Eyes..."
Although it wasn't the first time that Zhen Zhen said this, Xi Junjie was still in a daze, he looked at Zhen Zhen with a smile, and before Mingxi came out, he quickly touched her hair.
"Go fishing again?" Mingxi washed the pigeons and hurried out of the kitchen: "Look at how the pigeons eat?"
Because there was already nourishing duck soup, Zhen Zhen gave up the idea of making pigeon soup. After washing her hands, Zhen Zhen looked at the soaked pigeons, each of them weighed a little over half a catty. She pressed the meat on the breastbone with her hands.
The blood water was rinsed, and the brine prepared by Zhen Zhen was poured into the pot and placed on the stove. Ten scalded pigeons were pressed under the brine and bubbling.
Because several dishes were being cooked at the same time, all but four gas stoves were lit in the kitchen, and even the stove was used. Fortunately, the house was originally a palace, and the kitchen was big enough that even though so many people were busy working in it, it didn't feel crowded at all.
Mingxi brought in the cut fish. Xie Yanan, who had just washed the vegetables, was washed away by the fishy smell, and suddenly retched, covered his mouth and ran out. Mingxi quickly put the fish bowl aside, Rush out and pat her back.
Zhen Zhen hurriedly went out to have a look, seeing that Xie Yanan kept regurgitating acid water, she hurriedly said: "Second brother, please help my second sister-in-law to go back to the house to rest, there is nothing to do here, I will do it alone. "
Mingxi nodded, carefully helped Xie Yanan back to the house, Zhen Zhen went back to the kitchen, saw Wang Xinwen chopping vegetables, and quickly said: "Fourth sister-in-law, don't be too busy, go back and rest, standing for a long time will make your back sore. , wait a while for my fourth brother to bring the shrimp, and I will let him go back to accompany you."
Wang Xinwen did have a little soreness in her waist, so she didn't try to be brave, she just supported her waist and went out, when Ming Bei came back with the shrimp cage, Zhen Zhen said quickly, "You two should go back to the house to rest for a while, and have dinner later. call you."
Mingxi and Mingbei both went back, and only Zhen Zhen and Xi Junjie were left in Nuoda's kitchen, Xi Junjie looked at Zhen Zhen and smiled: ''Which dishes do I need to cook? "
Zhen Zhen looked at the various ingredients on the table and looked back at Xi Junjie: "You can do whatever you want."
Zhen Zhen originally thought that Xi Junjie would only cook some simple dishes like salads, but he didn't want Xi Junjie to be very good at Chinese and Western food.
Turn off the stove, Xi Junjie quickly dumped the prepared braised prawns on a plate, and did not forget to leave a few for Zhen Zhen on a small plate, and handed it to her: "It's been a long time. I haven't made it yet, and I don't know how it tastes. You can try it for me and give some suggestions."
Just by looking at the color and smelling the fragrance, you know that this braised shrimp is absolutely delicious. Xi Junjie is just looking for an excuse to let Zhen Zhen try it out first. Zhen Zhen couldn't wait to take out a pair of chopsticks, picked up a braised shrimp and put it in her mouth, sucked the fresh, salty and slightly sweet soup on the shrimp shell, Zhen Zhen lightly bit the protruding shrimp head, bit the shrimp meat gently As soon as the shrimp tail was pulled, the whole shell fell off, leaving only the soft and tender shrimp in the mouth, with a long aftertaste.
"It's delicious." Zhen Zhen took another braised shrimp into her mouth and gave Xi Junjie a thumbs up, she was so moved that she almost cried: "How can you cook so deliciously? ?"
Xi Junjie cut the fried squab in half on the cooked table and put it on the plate. Seeing that Zhen Zhen had eaten five braised prawns in less than a few minutes, he put the freshly cut pair of squab into the plate. On her plate, there was still the excuse just now: "Try it for me."
The pigeon was still a little hot, Zhen Zhen picked up the pigeon with chopsticks and carefully pinched the wings of the pigeon with her fingers, took a bite according to the meat on the back, Xi Junjie roasted the pigeon with crispy skin , The meat is tender and not salty, and the rich juice makes the pigeon meat not feel like firewood at all, and the mouth is full of oil.
Xi Junjie cooks a dish, Zhen Zhen follows it to taste a dish, twelve dishes are ready in forty minutes, Zhen Zhen is almost full. He took out the handkerchief and wiped his mouth. Xi Junjie was doing the final decoration. He put the flowers picked from outside the kitchen one by one on the plate, which was very pleasing to the eye.
Covering her bulging stomach, Zhen Zhen went to the main hall to set up tables and chairs, Mingxi helped with the dishes, and Mingbei ran to invite people over for dinner. There was a table full of dishes, except for the roast duck and chicken stewed with mushrooms, which were made by Zhen Zhen, the rest were all made by Xi Junjie. Zhen Zhen looked at him a little embarrassedly: "I'm really sorry that you are a guest and trouble you to cook."
"What's so embarrassing about this?" Xi Junjie looked at Zhen Zhen tenderly, with a doting tone in his voice: "I would like to cook for you all my life."
