Rebirth of the Great Era 1993

Chapter 231, Infatuation for love (please subscribe!)

After finishing the yellow diamond, we had lunch.

Zhang Xuan and Du Shuangling said goodbye.

Yang Yingman originally wanted to keep them until school started, but Zhang Xuan and Du Shuangling were determined this time.

With no other option, Ruan Dezhi had no choice but to drive the two of them back to CUHK in a van.

After four o'clock in the afternoon, the three of them, carrying large and small bags, crossed the stone steps and met Lao Deng and Lu Ni under the sycamore tree.

Lu Ni went to the coriander soil in the tap water, removed the yellow leaves, and washed the roots.

Lao Deng was burning bacon skin on the coal stove. Many tiny oil bubbles appeared on the dark pig skin, exuding a sizzling aroma.

Seeing Zhang Xuan and the others, Lao Deng stood up first to say hello: "Lao Ruan, Zhang Xuan, Xiao Du, happy New Year!"

"Lao Deng, happy New Year!"

Lao Deng gave Ruan Dezhi a cigarette and said enthusiastically: "It's a rare opportunity for you to come here. Let's have a drink before leaving after dinner today."

Hearing the familiar words "have a drink", Zhang Xuan's balls ached tightly, as if he met Lao Deng not only having a drink, but on the way to have a drink.

Drinking is indispensable in life. He drinks every three days and two days. This old Deng is really an alcoholic.

Zhang Xuan hurriedly interrupted, telling lies: "Old Deng, please don't embarrass my uncle. He has to rush back today and has a meeting tonight."

Ruan Dezhi was a little surprised that Zhang Xuan said this. He was so kind and wanted to stay for a drink, but now he couldn't.

So he said along the way: "Old Deng, I don't have time today. I'll invite you next time."

"Sure, career comes first, and I won't come back until I get drunk next time." Lao Deng thought that something was really wrong with him, so he stopped pestering him.

After letting Ruan Dezhi go, Lao Deng turned to look at Zhang Xuan and Du Shuangling: "What about you? Are you okay? Come down and have dinner together tonight."

Zhang Xuan and Du Shuangling looked at each other and replied:

"Old Deng, I appreciate your kindness. But we both have to fast today, so I won't disturb you and the instructor."

Before Lao Deng could speak, Lu Ni spoke curiously: "This is not the first or fifteenth day of the new year. Why do you have to fast?"

Well, I can only lie.

Zhang Xuan tilted his head and asked the two of them: "Do you know Nanyue Hengshan?"

Lu Ni replied: "I know."

Zhang Xuan asked again: "Have you ever heard of the words of the Holy Emperor Si Tianzhao of Nanyue and the Great Heavenly Lord of Anbang Protector?"

Deng Daqing and Lu Ni looked confused and shook their heads.

"Why…"

Zhang Xuan pretended to sigh, "You have never heard of Nanyue Bodhisattva. Today is his birthday. Those of us who believe in him have to burn incense and eat fast."

Yes, it involves issues of customs and beliefs. Deng Daqing and Lu Ni were instantly confused and shut up obediently.

Go up to the second floor and open the door.

As soon as he entered, Du Shuangling, who was trying his best to hold back his laughter, laughed softly and joked:

"You lied to Nanyue Bodhisattva, be careful he blames you for his dream tonight."

Zhang Xuan said sadly, "No way, I am a pilgrim of his family. This summer I plan to go to Nanyue Hengshan to offer incense."

When it came to going to Hengshan Mountain in Nanyue, Du Shuangling's eyes lit up, she raised her head and said softly: "I'll go with you too."

Zhang Xuan kissed her: "Do you still have to ask? I've already gone, of course you have to go."

Du Shuangling was filled with joy after hearing this, and began to sort out the large and small bags, and began to put away their suitcases.

Zhang Xuan was not idle either. He put on an apron and double sleeves and started cleaning inside and outside.

No one has lived in the rented house for several months, and a thick layer of dust has fallen on it, making it look dirty and uncomfortable.

More than 10 minutes later, Du Shuangling, who had finished sorting the clothes, also came to help.

The two cleaned the living room together, wiped the windows together, and went into the kitchen to clean together.

Just like a couple who have been together for many years, their every move is harmonious and natural, and they have a certain tacit understanding.

An hour later, the cleaning was finally completed, and both of them were sweating lightly.

After getting a basin of hot water to wash his hands, Du Shuangling handed him a dry towel to wipe his hands, and asked expectantly: "My dear, what shall we eat tonight?"

Hearing the words "honey", Zhang Xuan's heart moved, "Whatever you want to eat, I'll make it for you."

Du Shuangling raised her head slightly and said preparedly: "How about we cook six dishes tonight, chicken, fish, three raw meats, stewed radish, shrimp and pork blood balls?"

Zhang Xuan said yes and echoed: "How about we drink some more red wine?"

"It's up to you." Du Shuangling agreed with a smile.

After the discussion, the two of them changed their shoes and went out to buy groceries.

The pork blood balls and bacon are brought from home, so there is no need to buy them.

The other 4 dishes are all home-cooked dishes that can be found everywhere. After wandering around the vegetable market, I bought them all in less than 20 minutes.

After buying groceries, he hurriedly bought a bottle of red wine. When he was crossing the street to go back, Du Shuangling suddenly grabbed him.

Say: "Wait a minute."

Zhang Xuan turned to look at her, thinking that she wanted to eat something else.

Facing his confused look, Du Shuangling smiled sweetly and did not explain. Instead, she turned around and walked forward about 30 meters and entered a grocery store.

Looking around the store, Du Shuangling said to the store owner: "Buy me two pairs of red candles."

The shop owner was reading a novel. He looked up and asked, "Would you like a big one or a small one?"

Du Shuangling compared the size of the candles and said, "Big ones."

After checking out and putting the red candle in the bag, Du Shuangling blushed and walked with her head down, not daring to look at anyone.

Zhang Xuan followed behind and looked at her back. He couldn't help but flatter her and said, "My wife, Mr. Zhang, is not only high-minded, but also romantic. She is really a treasure."

When his cover was exposed ruthlessly, Du Shuangling turned around and stepped on him gently, smiling, but she became less shy.

The two of them stood next to each other, whispering all the way, entering the south gate and passing by the first floor of the teacher's apartment. By bad luck, they happened to bump into Lao Deng who was going out to pour water.

Lao Deng looked at the large and small bags of vegetables that the two of them had, and asked them as if they had seen a ghost: "Didn't you say you were fasting? Why did you buy chickens and fish?"

Zhang Xuan shook the bag shamelessly and asked seriously: "When you invite all kinds of gods to eat during the New Year and festivals, don't you prepare a table of delicious dishes?"

Lao Deng adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and said with a half-smile: "Yes, of course I will. But the problem is that after the gods finished eating, we also followed suit."

Zhang Xuan continued to show his shameless spirit: "Ah? Really? Maybe the customs are different. We have to put these dishes on display for three days."

Lao Deng was speechless, his eyes turned around the two of them, and he also entered the house.

Lu Ni laughed quietly and scolded Deng Daqing: "Are you a fool?"

Lao Deng chirped: "I'm just an old bachelor, so I don't know those tunes."

Lu Ni glanced at him and said, "How about I teach you."

After hearing this, Lao Deng immediately retreated and said bitterly: "Lu Ni, what do you teach me? I am not Tang Monk."

No one knows whether Lao Deng is the meat of Tang Monk.

But in Zhang Xuan's eyes, today's comrades are definitely Tang Monk meat, and they are still the best among the best.

After returning to the second floor, they closed the door and went to the kitchen to start cooking.

Women wash vegetables, men chop vegetables...

While Zhang Xuan was cooking, Du Shuangling watched from the side. While talking to him, he occasionally handed him some condiments and water.

The first dish was chicken. Zhang Xuan put a piece of it to her mouth: "Here, taste it and see if you want to add salt."

"Hmm~" Du Shuangling smiled and narrowed her eyes, opening her mouth to let him feed.

When the meat entered her mouth, she chewed it slowly and praised it, "It's delicious."

"Does salt suit the taste?"

"Yeah, just right."

After Du Shuangling finished eating one piece, he couldn't help but put another piece in his mouth, and then he didn't forget to feed Zhang Xuan one piece.

The old man opened his mouth to eat, and suddenly felt a trance, as if the two of them had returned to their previous lives.

In their last life, the two of them cooked together, ate together, walked together, traveled together, took care of the children together, and did everything together, living their lives in an ordinary but warm way.

Recalling his previous life, Zhang Xuan felt that he was happy, but also regretful.

Fortunately, there are two people who will accompany me for a long time.

Unfortunately, Mi Jian was mediocre and lacked courage at the beginning, causing the two of them to miss the best years of their youth.

Especially the scene where Mi Jian regretted not having a child, Zhang Xuan never forgave himself until he was old.

In this life, he came across the gap of time and space. In addition to the long-term possession, he did not want to give up what he had witnessed, experienced, and held hands with.

From the first day of his rebirth, Zhang Xuan has always had a belief in his heart to change his destiny. He wanted Shuangling, and he also wanted Mijian. He wanted to keep the bowl of water as even as possible, and he could no longer have the scruples he had in his previous life.

As a human again, what if others say he is pretentious? So what if he is said to be greedy?

who cares?

It was windy outside, it was groggy, and drizzle filled the sky.

The two chattered endlessly about trivial matters and endless words, and six dishes were prepared before they knew it.

Seeing that Zhang Xuan was about to take the dishes out of the steamer and put them on the table, Du Shuangling reached out to stop him and said, "No hurry, we smell of oily smoke, let's take a shower first."

Zhang Xuan blinked, "Wash together?"

Du Shuangling refused with a smile, pursed her lips and looked into his eyes and said, "Not now, I will stay with you tonight."

Oops!

not now…

Spend the night with yourself...

Now I have to take a shower, even at night...

Zhang Xuan almost went crazy with joy and suppressed his eager desire, "Okay, let's do it at the same time. You go to the bedroom to wash, and I'll wash outside."

Taking a bath in winter is painful, but Zhang Xuan is enjoying it at the moment. When the hot water is poured over his body, his whole body is filled with happiness factors.

Zhang Xuan washed quickly and also washed his hair.

After blow drying his hair, he sat on the sofa and waited.

Five minutes later, he glanced at the bedroom door and turned on the TV.

Ten minutes later, he looked at the door again and continued watching TV.

Fifteen minutes later, Zhang Xuan came to the door and asked worriedly: "Shuangling, have you finished washing?"

There was a reply: "Wait a moment."

"???"

He felt relieved when he heard the reply, but at the same time his mind was full of questions. How long does it take to take a bath?

It was almost half an hour before and after.

But today was a good day, a day worth remembering for a lifetime. He suppressed his confusion and continued to go back to the sofa to watch TV.

20 minutes later, there was still no movement at the door...

Zhang Xuan thought for a while, remained silent, and did not bother.

I just couldn't help but wonder in my heart, could this girl be scared?

But that shouldn't be the case. Based on my understanding of her, Comrade Shuangling has always been very sincere to me and will not avoid her.

Of course, it was an accident last semester, and it was the result of Ai Qing's forced intervention, otherwise the two would have become a de facto couple.

With this thought, 10 minutes slowly passed.

Zhang Xuan looked at the time, held his breath, but still couldn't hold it in. He stood up again and came to the door of the room and asked: "Shuangling, are you okay?"

The answer came back: "I'll be ready soon."

Okay, okay soon, more than ten minutes passed immediately.

Just when Zhang Xuan was leaning against the door and watching TV in boredom...

At a certain moment, the door lock clicked and opened.

The door opened from the inside.

Zhang Xuan turned his head when he heard the sound. At this moment, at this moment, his eyes widened and he was stunned! shocked!
