I farmed and built a villa in ancient times

Chapter 226

Yang Xi's Adam's apple twitched, and he took away the tea cup in front of him in a panic, calming down a little until the heat on his neck faded a little.

He then raised his head to look at her and said dullly, with a sour taste in his tone:
"Why are you, a girl, so familiar with men's land of fireworks and willows, and eating deer meat to replenish your body? Did you hear all this from the mouth of an unscrupulous person?"

Zhou Chenyu looked at his red face, raised his eyebrows, smiled, and said proudly: "You don't care where I heard it from. As long as I know more about those things, then what you men did will be You can no longer escape my eyes. This is called knowing yourself and your enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger!"

After hearing these words, Yang Xi opened his eyes in disbelief and said disapprovingly:
"Know yourself and your enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger? What's the truth?"

Zhou Chenyu looked at his suspicious look, pursed his lips, opened his eyes even wider than his, and said dissatisfied: "What? Can't you do that?"

"..." Yang Xi had no choice but to look away, took a sip of hot tea, and joked: "Who are you? How dare I say no? You can do whatever you want."

The afternoon sun shone on the screen window behind Yang Xi, exposing his whole body to the warm yellow natural light, diluting the dark and solemn blue clothes on his body.

He lowered his head slightly, lowered his eyes, blew the hot tea in the cup, and occasionally smiled relaxedly while talking to her.

Most importantly, the gentleness of the lowered head is just like the shyness of a lotus that cannot bear the cool breeze.

Zhou Chenyu looked at him, and this sentence suddenly popped into his mind.

Although this sentence was inappropriate for his gender, it was the only sentence that best expressed her mood at this moment.

Her smile was unconsciously brought out by him, and she said calmly: "That's pretty much it."

"Two guests, be careful, it's time for the younger one to serve."

The waiter's voice rang out at an inappropriate time. He led a follower, carrying things, and walked cautiously through the crowd toward them.

Yang Xi coughed lightly and returned to his usual serious look when facing outsiders.

Zhou Chenyu turned his head when he heard the sound and saw the waiter in the shop carrying a heavy charcoal stove and hot pot. He subconsciously reached out to hold them, but was scolded by the man opposite.

"Don't move." Yang Xi looked at the hot water that was about to overflow from the hot pot, and his secret was immediately revealed. He hurriedly put his hands around the hot pot to prevent the water from spilling out, and helped the waiter to move it to the table.

Zhou Chenyu sat there, watching him working seriously, quietly raising the corners of his lips, quietly admiring the scene in front of him, reluctant to move his eyes away.

The waiter set up the charcoal stove and hot pot, saw the charcoal fire was burning brightly, and said with an enthusiastic smile:
"Two distinguished guests, the dishes you ordered have been brought to the table. Please use them with ease."

"Thank you." Yang Xi nodded in greeting.

Zhou Chenyu watched as blisters began to form in the clear soup hotpot with chicken and carrot cubes. Sliced ​​beef, mutton, rabbit meat, lotus root slices, mushrooms, green vegetables, cabbage, potato slices, tofu, noodles, etc. were also placed around it. Both meat and vegetable dishes and dipping sauces are available.

The red charcoal in the stove ignites one piece and the other, and the hot water in the hot pot gradually boils. The fragrance of the chicken and the fragrance of the radish are brought out by the wafting steam.

Zhou Chenyu looked at the pedestrians passing by outside, but they rarely had free time to sit here and taste delicious food.

She shrugged happily and looked at the man who was spending time with her here. "That's great. I didn't expect that I could cook on the side of the stove here. I came out and waited for so long just for this bite. Now, Finally, I can eat it." Yang Xi looked at her happy expression and couldn't help but smile. He picked up the chopsticks and took out the meat that was being blanched in the hot pot. It was almost cooked.

He glanced at her hand and asked her:
"Chen Yu, what do you want to eat? The chicken and beef in the pot are cooked and can be eaten."

Zhou Chenyu stuck her head out and said, "Well, I want to eat beef." After saying that, she silently handed over the small bowl, "Thank you."

"Why are you being polite to me?" Yang Xi pursed her lips and smiled, took out a chopstick of beef, put it in her bowl, and waited patiently for her comment, "Chen Yu, try it to see if it suits your taste. Remember to scald it carefully. ."

Zhou Chenyu nodded, "Okay."

Following his instructions, I eagerly picked up a small piece of beef, dipped it in sesame oil, garlic and coriander sauce, and stuffed it into my mouth. I chewed the tender beef dipped in the sauce, and the juices that melted into the meat overflowed. .

She narrowed her eyes happily, her bright eyes forming two crescent moons in a smile, "Yeah, yeah, it's delicious. This is what I want. It tastes exactly like what I imagined."

Yang Xi saw a satisfied look on her face, as if she hadn't eaten meat for a long time.

He chuckled and put the rest of the blanched beef into her bowl. "If it's delicious, eat more. There's enough beef here."

"Hey, why did you give it all to me? You don't want to eat?" Zhou Chenyu looked at his bowl stuffed with beef, but his bowl was still clean, and he clearly hadn't taken a bite.

"I'm not in a hurry." Yang Xi replied calmly, picked up another plate of beef slices, added it to the hot pot, and said with a smile: "Besides, you've been waiting for me for so long, how can I make you hungry?"

Zhou Chenyu muttered, "From what you said, I feel like a starving ghost reincarnated."

Yang Xi squinted, eager to clarify, "Is that what I meant? Don't wrongly accuse a good person."

"Tsk...who has wronged you?" Zhou Chenyu smiled and slowly enjoyed the beef in the bowl. He picked up two pieces and went to dip them in the sauce at hand, but the beef had not yet touched the sauce. She The rolled cuffs fell off and the sauce got on them before the beef did.

"It's done, my clothes."

Zhou Chenyu hesitated for two seconds, looked left and right, and finally was reluctant to put down his chopsticks. He looked at Yang Xi eagerly and stretched out his hand.

Yang Xi glanced at her and smiled fondly: "Why are you so careless?"

Zhou Chenyu shook his hand and said clearly: "Yang Xi, are you just refusing to save me? Help me."

Yang Xi looked stunned, looked at the people around her, and saw that she was hanging there, the beef she was holding was still unable to be brought into her mouth, and she looked a little anxious.

He reluctantly put down what he was doing, stretched out his hands, and helped her roll up the sleeves that had slipped down bit by bit, "Okay."

In order to express his gratitude to him, Zhou Chenyu ate the piece of beef dipped in sauce in front of him and smiled at him:
"Oh, why does this bite of beef taste even better than before? I wonder if it's because Team Leader Yang helped me?"

Knowing that she said this on purpose, Yang Xi couldn't help but smile. As if he was bewitched by her, he actually felt that this was the best hot pot meal he had ever tasted.
