5 red peppers

The next day, thanking Su Shuo's wife's help, Zhong You set up a table in the yard, opened a few jars of wine and thanked the people in the Mengguan again. The yard was completed after more than half a month. Everyone gathered happily until the evening.

Zhong You cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks alone. When boiling water, he sat under the eaves that had been repaired and grabbed a pair of osmanthus candies and scented the wine.

He was not good at drinking when he was at home. When he was a child, he was afraid of causing trouble for his mother, so he didn't get much trouble. So now, he can get to face with two or three cups. Thinking that his father and brother in his family are all drinking hot drinks, he highlights the difference.

The summer night in Lianti Village was also so hot that people were confused. His palm was filled with sweat. Fortunately, the osmanthus candy he was holding was wrapped in paper, otherwise he would have been squeezed in the palm and melted prematurely.

Zhong You put a piece of the entrance and held it in it. The peach trees were lush and the cicadas were rustling. When you looked up, you saw the stars shining brightly. It was a summer day that he had never seen in previous years. Evening primrose was buried in the small fields under the fence. He went to water and observe every day, hoping that flowers would grow tomorrow.

Just as I was staying, I saw someone walking along the stream in the night. When I stopped outside the fence, I raised my hand and knocked on the empty place.

Zhong You smiled.

Shi Yu didn't push the door, so he stepped directly into the low fence door. His long legs stretched out straight from under the robe, and even through his pants, it could make people think of the tight muscles of the calf. He carried a few fat and fresh fish and carried them on the straw rope to see it was quite substantial.

Shi Yu raised his hand to lift the fish, "Do you have a tank?"

Zhong You hurriedly led him to the low water tank beside the fence, and Shi Yu put the fish in. Zhong You looked at the fish that was very flexible in the tank, and said, "I didn't see such a fresh fish in the market yesterday."

"I just caught it." Shi Yu stroked the leaves and threw them in, "There is a white dragon river below."

"Bailong River?" Zhong You laughed again, "Is the Dragon Prince living?"

"Maybe." Shi Yu watched the fish float up and touch the leaves little by little, and then suddenly sank. "It's going to flood every autumn, and the very energetic Dragon Prince." Finally, he turned his head to look at Zhong You, "Yesterday's Su Zhou was taken care of by Mr. Su, which caused trouble."

Zhong You didn't realize anything, and his eyes flashed unconsciously on his neck, and found that the scratch had faded, and said, "I can't take care of you, I am the one who Azhou takes care of you."

Shi Yu nodded, and felt as if he was aware of it, he touched his side neck, "Mr. His hands are very good."

Zhong You saw his fingertips gently tweeting the faded red mark, and completely turned his eyes away, saying, "It's not a hand skill." Listening to Shi Yu, "Hmm?", said, "It's just a little bit of acupuncture. The master who taught me is really amazing, but I only know this trick, too many, and I can only scare people. If it weren't for A Zhou yesterday, I thought I could not get out easily."

"It's just a lesson for him."

Shi Yu suddenly stopped, grabbed Zhong You's wrist and lifted the kitchen curtain with a few steps. As expected, the water in the pot was boiling and charcoal fell from the stove. Fortunately, the floor had been cleaned up and went to the main house, otherwise it would be bad if it burned.

Only then did Zhong You remember that there was still water in the pot, and immediately grabbed the collar of his clothes, thinking that he was very lucky.

He really couldn't drink it, and his head was dizzy and dull, and he seemed sober but was actually slow.

Shi Yu had already put the charcoal back into the heat, opened the lid of the pot and saw that the water boiled. He took Zhong You's wrist and pulled him to his side, saying, "The weather is dry, pay attention to the fire." He pointed to the location behind the door of the stove, "Put a tank here, it will easily cause fire on the stove, so it can be emergency." He said, "Is this going to have a midnight snack?"

Zhong You's fingers on his wrist were strong, and he swollen and said, "No... for bathing..."

Shi Yu paused slightly, and for some reason he thought of something, but he actually let go of his hand holding his wrist, took a quick look, and said, "...so."

The wrist where Zhong You showed his blue shirt sleeves still left a red mark, which made some charming look on his white and tender arms. He didn't know it yet, and smiled at Shi Yu's smile: "It's true that I can't touch the wine, I forgot this..."

Shi Yu suddenly took a step closer to him, his broad shoulders blocked the dizzy candlelight behind him, allowing his deep eyes to hide in the shadow. Zhong You was already close to him, and this step was facing Shi Yu's chest, and even the lines on Shi Yu's collar could be seen clearly. He didn't know if it was wine or not, but he stared at the collar, and was at a loss for a moment, and forgot what he was going to say.

Shi Yu squinted, and the shadow covering his head gathered him up, and even the unknown smell of Yu's body filled him with his body. Zhong You's breathing was unstable, and Shi Yu's breath was lowered, then he reached out and rubbed it through his ear, pulled one of the red peppers hanging behind him, and stepped away and sent it into his mouth.

Zhong You stared at him in a daze, a little stunned.

Shi Yu slowly bit the red pepper, and the spicy food surged straight into his mouth, making his ears redder a little. He turned his deep eyes to Zhong You and said with a steady voice: "I want to taste spicy or not."

Zhong You grabbed his chest tightly, opened his eyes in a slight manner, and whispered: "Oh, Mrs. Su gave it to me."

"No wonder." Shi Yu waved the tip of his tongue obviously. The spicy taste made his stomach hurt slightly. The young man, who was self-inflicted, gave all the red peppers under Zhong You's gaze, and then said in a low voice: "It's quite spicy."

Zhong You then recovered, "I can't tell that you actually like spicy food."

Shi Yu stopped for a moment and nodded. He said he responded, but his expression didn't look very similar. He raised his hand and grabbed the broken hair, feeling sweat floating on his forehead, and said, "Then wash it, I'll go."

When Zhong You heard that he was going home, he remembered it and said, "Wait." Then he turned around and ran to the main house, not knowing what to get.

Shi Yu then poked out his tongue and licked it on his lips a few times, and the lips became burnt. He yelled gently, but didn't feel any better.

Shi Yu didn't wait long in the yard when Zhong You came out. He held a box and wrapped it with silk cloth. He handed it to Shi Yu and said, "I don't know what's better. I saw this yesterday and thought I could use it."

Shi Yu lifted a corner of the silk cloth and said, "Clothing... box?"

Zhong You said: "I thought my wife still liked these ages, and this box of wood happened to be rare."

Shi Yu looked at him strangely.

Zhong You whispered: "Is it a little abrupt?"

"No." Shi Yu raised his hand and touched his neck again, frowned slightly, "But I haven't married yet, sir, is it too early?"

"It's not too early...ah?" Zhong You was stunned, his eyes turned to his neck, "It turns out that he hasn't married."

"No." Shi Yu leaned over to him slightly, and his fingertips touched the red mark on the side neck. "Although it's not very good-looking, it was indeed my mother caught it. Sir." Shi Yu stared at him, clearly saying that you are thinking wrong.

Zhong You's face burned.

Shi Yu pulled the collar and said, "But he has good eyesight." Where can Jing look?

Zhong You said awkwardly: "It's time to ask you."

"It's not abrupt." Shi Yu stood up indifferently and said to him: "It's okay to see wherever you want."

Zhong You's eyes became even more drifting.

Shi Yu didn't press on this matter and changed the topic, "I have to remember it when I watered the evening primrose twice a day." Seeing Zhong You nodded, he seemed to smile, "Then I will see you tomorrow."

Everyone walked a few steps through the fence gate, turned around, and saw Zhong You standing still to look at him, then laughed a few times, leaving without saying anything.

Because there were half of the bookshelf, Shi Yu was alone to make it, so he came in the next half month. He and Zhong You were the only ones in the courtyard. Sometimes they couldn't get in at night and would be left to dinner by Zhong You. Although it didn't look like it, Zhong You's cooking skills were still amazing, especially the taste of making soup, which could feed Shi Yu with a pot of fish soup and rice.

Shi Yu would wash dishes consciously after dinner. Every time he was washing dishes, Zhong You would wait with a small cloth behind him, and he handed them one to wipe the other. The two of them could still speak from all over the world.

It's more familiar than before, but the scratches on Shi Yu's neck were healed for a few days, and the back of his hand appeared again.

Zhong You had heard the idle talk that day and could guess seven or eight points, so he never asked once, so he only gave him a bottle of scratch medicine. However, the scratches were not cured, so it should be useless.

It was said that the rain stopped half a day after the rain. Shi Yu went to the town and Su Zhou fell. He had been borrowing books all day long, and the calligraphy and painting books could be understood even if he was stumbling. But today, he was here to find Zhong You to go out.

"Sir, have you never been to the mountain to the east?" Su Zhou held the straw raincoat and said, "Let's go together today."

Zhong Youzheng marked the preface to the book and heard this and said, "What are you doing in the mountains?"

"Look for mushrooms." Su Zhou pointed to the small basket on his back, "It's the right time for the Dongshan mushrooms. The rain suddenly came out. It's best to come back and cook dishes and soup. Will you go?"

As soon as Zhong You stopped his pen, he was really interested. He took the straw raincoat hanging on the wall, put it on the eaves with Su Zhou, looked at the gray sky, and said, "I'll come back now that I'll see if I'll go down one night."

Su Zhou showed his white teeth, "It won't take long, it's always going to be fast."

Zhong You nodded, pressed his straw hat, and went with Su Zhou.

Unexpectedly, it was night before I saw anyone return.

Shi Yu bought rice from the town and brought rice paper to Zhong You. When he came back, it was dark and he didn't go to Zhong You's yard too late. Unexpectedly, before his hair was dry when he got home, he heard Su Shuo calling him.

"Brother?" As soon as he opened the door, the rain began to scatter the ground with a chill. He pulled Su Shuo under the eaves of the courtyard, "What's wrong?"

Su Shuo put on the straw raincoat and rubbed his hands, "A Zhou hasn't come back yet, I thought I'm slid on the mountain road."

"He came and went for more than a dozen times, can't he recognize the road?" Shi Yu also took the straw raincoat from under the eaves, "It should be something else, let's go together."

When the two passed by Zhong You's yard, Shi Yu realized that there was no light today. In the past, Zhong You had to take a shower and would not sleep until after that.

"He went alone?"

"I was alone when I came out." Su Shuo looked over with him and frowned, "Maybe he would have trouble taking him with me."

Shi Yu watched the stream flow through Asakusa in the rain, and accelerated his pace with Su Shuo.

This East Mountain is actually not dangerous, and there are no wild animals. It should be not far from Lianti Village. People often come to the mountain to pick wild fruits and vegetables. Most children like Su Zhou know the mountain roads as they know it, and they run around the mountain with their bare butts, so it is not uncommon for him to come out alone. But there are unexpected situations in the world. When people should walk on the road, even a few cows can't pull them back.

Just like today, it should be the time for Zhong You to be unlucky.

Except for stepping on mud, he and Su Zhou were all smooth all the way, and even the mushrooms were collected. Unexpectedly, when he went down the mountain, Su Zhou saw that the sky was dark, so he took him to take a shortcut. Since ancient times, most of the shortcuts were not easy to walk on. The loose stones and soil on the uphill rushed down the rain and mixed into a mud flow. When the mud flow rolled down, Zhong You knew that he might not be able to go back today. The mud rushed over and broke several trees. Zhong You pulled Su Zhou but couldn't dodge them. The two were rolled down the slope and rolled into the river beach below, and almost entered the river.

When Zhong You blocked Su Zhou, he thought to himself.

This is the White Dragon River, it turns out to be below. I don’t know how Shi Yu caught the fish...

He pressed something on his back and couldn't get up, so he could only hold the gap and touch Su Zhou. Fortunately, he didn't touch the wound. But when he spitted mud and slag, he tasted some bloody smell.

A scholar who has no use.
