Out of place
Chapter 71
After taking a shower with each other, the two returned to the bedroom. Cheng Boyan habitually sat on the small sofa by the window and picked up a book.
Xiang Xi sat on the edge of the bed and looked at him: "Tell me, take a couple's bath, the two of us are so calm."
"Otherwise?" Cheng Boyan smiled, "I can't play with you with one hand, and I'm afraid of touching your shoulder."
Xiang Xi laughed a few times and didn't speak.
"Do you want to chat for a while?" Cheng Boyan looked at him, "Do you still want to sleep?"
"I'll lie down," Xiang Xi patted the pillow, "I can't sleep now, my mind is like cooking miscellaneous bean porridge, gurgling and messy."
"You have to go to the right side." Cheng Boyan put down his book and walked to the bed, helped him to lie down, and put the thick quilt on his back, "I have to sleep on my side for a few days, and I will go to the hospital in two days , let me check again for you."
"Can you sleep on the other side?" Xiang Xi tried to sit up after lying down, "I want to be with you behind me when I fall asleep."
"You don't want to see my handsome face?" Cheng Boyan pointed to his own face, "Is there something wrong with you?"
"Who can see it when you sleep and close your eyes," Xiang Xi smiled, "I just want to lean on you behind my back."
"Okay, just lie down and don't move," Cheng Boyan took the pillow to the other side of the bed, then half hugged and half dragged him away, "Is that so?"
"Yeah." Xiang Xi nodded.
Cheng Boyan originally wanted to go back to sit on the sofa, but after thinking about it, he didn't go. He took off his clothes and lay down on the bed, leaning against the head of the bed to read a book.
Xiang Xi leaned on him comfortably, adjusted his posture and asked softly, "Is your hand serious? Will there be any sequelae?"
"No, the wound is not deep," Cheng Boyan patted him, "I just grabbed it, and I let go when he drew the knife. I am such a smart and quick-response person."
"I really want to go up today," Xiang Xi snorted, and after a while, I sighed. "I actually held back."
"No need," Cheng Boyan said, "Xiao Xixi is a mature man now, and she won't do such things lightly."
"I've always been very mature, and I only turn my belly when I'm in front of you," Xiang Xi said with a smile, and after thinking about it, he said, "You said, Da Jian came by himself, or did he let him do it in the second set?" here?"
"What do you think?" Cheng Boyan turned a page of the book.
"I think he came here by himself. It is said that Uncle Ping has to find me for this matter. He has raised a white-eyed wolf for more than ten years. He hates me the most." Xiang Xi closed his eyes and slowly analyzed, "Da Jian is the second The person who made the move, the person who made the second move, can't stand up for Uncle Ping, and if he is really caught, he might push it on Uncle Ping."
"Dajian really loves Erpan very deeply." Cheng Boyan said.
Xiang Xi laughed for a long time: "You're really bad, but you're right. It's like brainwashing. You don't have anything in your mind at all. Once you wash it, it's all fucking empty, so you'll recognize the two as one father."
"It's good that he was caught." Cheng Boyan smiled.
"Well, if we just focus on today's matter, the second set will definitely kill this idiot." Xiang Xi clicked his tongue twice.
"You were injured and frightened again today," Cheng Boyan touched his arm, "I don't care about you, so don't let it go, you don't have room to smoke."
"I'll... just say it." Xiang Xi rubbed his nose.
"Aren't the police very friendly today?" Cheng Boyan put down his book, "It's not as scary as you think."
"That police officer Zhang is quite nice," Xiang Xi said with a smile, "he speaks very kindly... that's right!"
"Huh?" Cheng Boyan turned his head to look at him.
"I asked him today, and I said that in my situation, can I still find...my parents," Xiang Xi turned his head, "He said that this matter is out of their control, but he told me that he can go to the household registration department or the household registration department. What kind of question is there, there may not be hope to find parents, but the identity and household registration may be able to be done, but the procedures may be troublesome..."
"Really?" Cheng Boyan thought for a while, "I'll ask someone tomorrow."
"Who are you looking for?" Xiang Xi asked.
"Students, friends, and...the patient's family," Cheng Boyan said slowly, "I guess they will run to Zhaojiayao."
"Why?" Xiang Xi frowned.
"Only Zhaojiayao can prove that you were picked up and grew up there," Cheng Boyan pinched his ear, "I'll ask what procedures are required first."
"Well, if you tell me where I'm going, I'll just ask myself," Xiang Xi suddenly became a little excited, and wanted to turn over while talking, "Then..."
"Don't move around," Cheng Boyan pressed him, "I'll find out first, and I'll talk about it when I need you to go."
"Should I take a photo first, the kind of ID card?" Xiang Xi asked, "The last time I took a photo was when I got the fake ID of Zhan Hongtu... Tell me, if I can get it done, how old am I? Birthday When is it? Should I just use the name Xiang Xi? Do you want to change it? Uncle Ping said that my surname is Xiang, so I don’t want to change my surname. It’s convenient for me to find my parents in the future. What about Xi? I'm used to it..."
"It's all up to you, you can change it however you want," Cheng Boyan turned off the light, lay down on the pillow, hugged him sideways, and said softly, "Go to sleep now, and you'll have a tossing all night."
"Well, good night." Xiang Xi said.
"Good night." Cheng Boyan kissed him on the cheek.
Although Xiang Xi said goodnight, he didn't settle down right away, and murmured a lot of things in a low voice. Cheng Boyan listened to him with his eyes closed, answering twice from time to time.
It wasn't until Xiang Xi's voice became lower and lower, and finally there was no movement, that he adjusted the angle of Xiang Xi's injured arm and let out a sigh of relief.
Xiang Xi slept soundly, only once a night when he wanted to turn over and lie on his back, he pushed him back to his side.
But because he was always worried that Xiang Xi would crush his fractured shoulder, he didn't sleep well all night. He fell asleep for a while when it was almost dawn, and he didn't even hear the sound of splashing in the early morning. It was Xiang Xi who woke him up.
"I'm going to be late," Xiang Xi patted his face, "Are you going to work today? Or did you ask for leave?"
"Come on," Cheng Boyan opened his eyes in bewilderment, "Did I oversleep?"
"It's not too much, I was 10 minutes late, and I fell asleep making breakfast," Xiang Xi said, "You have to go out to eat."
"Then you..." Cheng Boyan sat up, the wound on his hand was congested with blood, he raised his hand.
"I'll eat by myself in a while, and your breakfast isn't very attractive. If you can't eat it, you won't be able to eat it." Xiang Xi said with a smile.
I really don't have time to make breakfast by myself today, Cheng Boyan checked the time after washing up, it happened to be time to go out.
Xiang Xi stood in the living room and moved his right arm: "Hey, it's so uncomfortable to only move one side."
"Stay honestly at home today, don't go out, there is something to eat in the refrigerator, you can make do with it," Cheng Boyan said, "One big health has been arrested, maybe there are two healthy and three healthy."
"There probably won't be any more. Anyone who is not blind knows that I have already connected with the police." Xiang Xi walked to the window and looked down, "Besides, the bodyguards have already arrived."
"What?" Cheng Boyan was stunned for a moment, "Didn't the police stop saying this yesterday?"
"Didn't Brother Song also say yesterday, stop following me, let's just go together, let's walk to the head office with my friends..." Xiang Xi smiled for a long time, "Is he really here?"
"I'm convinced," Cheng Boyan sighed, but after Dajian's incident, no one should come to the door like this again, and now it's better to hide as far away as possible, "Then if you want to go out today Come with them."
"Yeah." Xiang Xi nodded.
"Call your master and ask if one arm can be used for class," Cheng Boyan said while changing his shoes. "Yesterday, we had a lot of sausages. We couldn't finish them all. Let's bring some over."
"Yeah." Xiang Xi nodded.
"You can eat by yourself at noon. I'm in the inpatient department today, and I'm supposed to be with the director at noon. I won't order takeaway for you." Cheng Boyan stood at the door.
"Well," Xiang Xi nodded, and looked at the time again, "Are you still going?"
"Let's go," Cheng Boyan opened the door, stopped after thinking about it, "By the way, I'm on duty tomorrow..."
"You can tell me about tomorrow's affairs tonight!" Xiang Xi shouted.
"I'm really gone." Cheng Boyan smiled, turned and walked out the door.
Xiang Xi stood in the middle of the living room, and when the elevator dinged, Cheng Boyan went downstairs.
He urged Cheng Boyan to go out just now, but now that Cheng Boyan went downstairs, he felt a little lost and stood there for a long time without moving.
Washing his face, brushing his teeth, going to the bathroom, he did everything slowly, and when he thought of being alone all day, he seemed to freeze, and his movements became even slower.
How should the time of the day be spent?
I don’t want to make breakfast, and I only have one arm. I don’t want to clean the house, and I only have one arm. I don’t want to read books, and I only have one arm.
In the end, he wandered around the room, sitting here and there, and tossing and tossing until after ten o'clock. He was really bored, and the TV was full of TV shopping at this time. After thinking about it, he got up and put his bag on his back, ready to go downstairs. go around.
If this boredom continues, he feels that he will start to wonder what Director Xu thinks of him...
Song Yi's trio was still downstairs. Seeing him coming down, several people came over, and a tall man greeted him: "Little brother, are you going out?"
"Turn around, it's too boring to stay in the room," Xiang Xi smiled, "Yesterday... Thank you, what do you call me?"
"Don't thank me. I also said not to get too close to you. In the end, it's better to stick to you from the beginning, and nothing like this will happen. My surname is Wang." The tall man pointed to the other two, "You Brother Liu and Brother Li."
"Thank you brother, no one expected that someone would come," Xiang Xi said, "Then you guys today..."
"It's within two meters," Brother Liu on the side answered, "You don't have to worry about us if you do your own thing."
There are a few people who have a funny relationship with others. Xiang Xi always feels that he is shopping with a younger brother to collect protection fees, and the three of them don’t chat much. They walk slowly two meters behind them, and they say a few words from time to time. sentence.
Xiang Xi walked around in the small garden, there were not many people, just a few aunts chatting.
He found a bench that was a bit out of the way and sat down, took out his mobile phone and called old man Lu.
Old man Lu knew that he had no parents and was alone, so when he heard that he was injured, he became very anxious: "Is the injury serious? Didn't you go to the hospital?"
"It's not serious, really, my friend is a doctor, or an orthopedic surgeon, don't worry, he said that he doesn't need to be hospitalized, and this position will heal after a while with his arms hanging," Xiang Xi said with a smile, "I'm now Still going for a walk outside."
"Walk? Do you want to take a walk and come to the tea room?" Old man Lu smiled, "The air here is so good, why don't you come over here. Hu Hai brought me a leg of lamb at noon, and the three of us just ate together ,How about it?"
"Eat leg of lamb?" When Xiang Xi heard this, he immediately became greedy. He didn't eat breakfast, and the big meal that was agreed yesterday was gone... But he still followed his three elder brothers, "I..."
Brother Wang almost understood the content of the phone call, and waved to him, gesturing him to go.
"I'll be there in a while." Xiang Xi said immediately.
After hanging up the phone, Xiang Xi followed them into the car, and Brother Liu drove.
"Don't worry about us," Brother Liu said, "When we went with you last time, we saw a barbecue restaurant at the intersection. It looked pretty good, and we said that we would eat there someday."
"I invite you to eat!" Xiang Xi patted his bag.
"Why do you invite me?" Brother Wang smiled, "Someone treats you."
Xiang Xi laughed as soon as he heard it, and probably these were Song Yi's bags. Speaking of which, when things calm down, he should seriously treat Song Yi to a meal.
After the weather turned cooler, walking the small path outside the Tea Research Institute was quite pleasant, with the breeze blowing, Xiang Xi felt that his steps were much lighter.
When he walked to the tea room, he heard the sound of the piano, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw the green eyes outside the window facing the door, and he felt comfortable for a while.
"Coming?" Hu Hai, who was playing the piano, stopped.
"Hello, senior brother," Xiang Xi hurried over, "Is your hand ready?"
"Okay, I won't be able to see it the next day," Hu Hai smiled, "Don't call me Senior Brother, it's too formal, just be casual."
"Brother Hai," Xiang Xi changed his address, "Where's my master?"
"I went back to get the food, and said that one leg is not enough for us to eat." Hu Hai plucked the strings, "How did you get this arm?"
"It's not the arm," Xiang Xi turned sideways, pointing to his back, "it's the shoulder blade, it fell."
"Did you fall?" Hu Hai laughed after thinking about it, and a series of casual and melodious piano sounds slipped out from his fingertips, "The posture of falling is very difficult, is it a fight?"
"No." Xiang Xi said.
"Really?" Hu Hai glanced at him.
"No!" Xiang Xi looked at him and said it again with an emphatic tone.
"Well," Hu Hai smiled, "then pay attention to rest."
"Really not!" Xiang Xi sat down on a chair and stared at him.
Hu Hai stopped strumming on the strings, and raised his eyes to look at him seriously: "I see, it's not a fight... In fact, I also guessed randomly. If the master said that he was injured, I probably wouldn't." Will ask if there is a fight."
Xiang Xi smiled, and asked again after a while: "Have you followed Master for a long time?"
"The time is not short," Hu Hai continued to play the piano, "If you don't count learning tea from him, it has been ten or twenty years."
"So long? I've only lived for 20 years," Xiang Xi was stunned. "Actually, you two are relatives, right?"
Hu Hai laughed and took a sip of tea from the teacup next to him: "It's not a relative, but I've known him since I was a teenager, right here. At that time he hadn't become a fairy, just an ordinary middle-aged man."
"Oh..." Xiang Xi looked at the pot on the tea table and the freshly brewed tea, he poured himself a cup and refilled it for Hu Hai, "At that time, this was the tea mountain, right? "
"Yes, it has always been, much longer than tea research." Hu Hai said.
Xiang Xi went to lean against the window and looked out.
Outside the window is a terrace built with wooden boards. The floor and railings are all the original color of wood.
There is a tea table and a few stools on the terrace. The sun is not so strong this time. It should be enjoyable to sit outside and drink tea. The sound of the piano is refreshing, and the green tea mountains can be seen when you look down and up.
Hu Hai should be regarded as quite...a person, he would have come to such a place in his teens. If it were him, if he hadn't learned tea from him, he probably would never have thought of wandering around the tea mountain.
"People who can play the piano are different." Xiang Xi sighed.
"Are you talking about me?" Hu Hai asked with a smile.
"Yeah," Xiang Xi saw that he stopped, and stretched out his hand to try to hook the strings, "When I was a teenager... Anyway, I wouldn't come here to experience life."
"I didn't come here to experience life, and I didn't know how to play the piano at that time." Hu Hai continued to play along with the note he ticked off, "Master asked me to learn the piano, saying it can calm people down and find something to do." You won’t be thinking about it when you’re doing it.”
"Thinking?" Xiang Xi didn't quite understand.
Hu Hai didn't speak anymore, he lowered his head and started playing the piano, the sound of the piano gradually changed from slow to urgent, Xiang Xi stared at his fingers, feeling a little dazed for a moment, the feeling of suddenly remembering many things.
Then the sound of the piano gradually slowed down, making people feel drowsy as if they were sitting by the stream, the wind blowing through the bamboo forest.
When old man Lu came in with a bag of vegetables, Hu Hai's piano sound stopped.
"Master, I'm here," he looked at Old Man Lu, "I've been listening to the piano for half the time, I've scared you to death."
"Which is half of it. He never stops when he starts playing. If he stops, I will stand outside today." Old man Lu raised the bag in his hand with a smile, "Come on, this is The vegetables grown by my family will be fried and eaten in a while."
"Let me see," Xiang Xi ran over with great interest, and the sound of the piano sounded again behind him, "Did you grow it in a pot?"
"Well, I've planted a lot, and I can't finish it. I'm a successful vegetable farmer," Old Man Lu said proudly, and looked at the splint on Xiang Xi's arm, "Are you serious?"
"It's really not serious, it needs to be fixed at this scale," Xiang Xi followed behind him, "How do we do it? Shall I cook?"
"There's Hu Hai, we just wait and eat," Old Man Lu put the dishes in the small kitchen, "Hu Hai!"
"Here we come." Hu Hai responded.
"I smell the leg of lamb, it smells so good." Xiang Xi sniffed, saw a leg of lamb on the table, jumped up, and whispered, "Can I eat it now? "
"What's the taste of leg of lamb?" Old man Lu smiled, "I need to process it again, and I can eat it in a while."
"The leg of lamb has the smell of cumin, and the smell of meat. It's kind of burnt..." Xiang Xi closed his mouth in the middle of speaking, afraid that if he continued to speak, he would not be able to keep his mouth watering.
"If you want to eat, I'll cut some for you and taste it first." Hu Hai came over just in time to hear him speak, went into the kitchen and took a knife, sliced a piece of meat from the leg of lamb, put it on a plate and handed it to Xiang Xi.
"Thank you, Brother Hai," Xiang Xi didn't pick up the plate, directly squeezed the meat into his mouth, and said vaguely, "Damn it's delicious..."
"Come on, let's drink tea first and wait to eat." Old man Lu patted him on the shoulder and sat down at the tea table, "You are here anyway, let's chat about tea and tell you about some kinds of tea Production Method."
"Okay." Xiang Xi sat down at the table and wiped his mouth. "Let's talk about the leg of lamb first. Did he make it himself? It tastes so good."
"Yes, I won't say anymore. He cooks very well. With him around, I don't have to worry about eating," Old Man Lu smiled. "He will come to my house during the Chinese New Year. Every time he comes back, my granddaughter will wait for him. He made a table for him."
"That's great." Xiang Xi sighed, and then thinking about himself and Cheng Boyan, the contrast was immediately clear at a glance.
Will Cheng Boyan cook during Chinese New Year?No, definitely not, Cheng Boyan has to go back to his parents' house during the Chinese New Year, or to his grandma's?Then... what about myself?follow?
Definitely not, Director Xu didn't think too highly of himself before, and now it's even more... and taking it home for the New Year, it's just delusional!
What should I do then?Stay alone during Chinese New Year?
When he was feeling very depressed, old man Lu said while making tea: "Hu Hai and you are pretty hit-and-miss, but with your character, you can hit it off with everyone."
"Vote?" Xiang Xi asked smoothly.
"I have brought a lot of apprentices over the years, and none of them are willing to talk to others. They can't say ten words in a few months." Old man Lu said with a smile, "This kid usually talks very little, and he doesn't like to talk to anyone." people."
"Ah?" Xiang Xi was a little surprised. Hu Hai couldn't talk much, but he was definitely not too little, and he was very kind, and he couldn't see where he didn't like to talk to people, "Don't fool me."
"Maybe your age... like his younger brother," Old Man Lu put the tea in front of him, "I never confiscated such a young apprentice as you before."
"Oh." Xiang Xi picked up the cup, his words reminded him of Cheng Boyan.
"If Hu Hai's younger brother is still alive, he should be about the same age as you." Old man Lu took a sip of his tea. What is life like."
Xiang Xi was silent, the old man's words made him feel emotional.
Yes, if he hadn't gotten close to Cheng Boyan, if any of them missed by accident, Cheng Boyan would not know the difference between the person who stole the wallet and the other thieves, and would not know his past, and he would also I don't know, that man with a handsome ID card photo hides a childish side behind his seriousness...
It's amazing, a person's life.
Xiang Xi sat on the edge of the bed and looked at him: "Tell me, take a couple's bath, the two of us are so calm."
"Otherwise?" Cheng Boyan smiled, "I can't play with you with one hand, and I'm afraid of touching your shoulder."
Xiang Xi laughed a few times and didn't speak.
"Do you want to chat for a while?" Cheng Boyan looked at him, "Do you still want to sleep?"
"I'll lie down," Xiang Xi patted the pillow, "I can't sleep now, my mind is like cooking miscellaneous bean porridge, gurgling and messy."
"You have to go to the right side." Cheng Boyan put down his book and walked to the bed, helped him to lie down, and put the thick quilt on his back, "I have to sleep on my side for a few days, and I will go to the hospital in two days , let me check again for you."
"Can you sleep on the other side?" Xiang Xi tried to sit up after lying down, "I want to be with you behind me when I fall asleep."
"You don't want to see my handsome face?" Cheng Boyan pointed to his own face, "Is there something wrong with you?"
"Who can see it when you sleep and close your eyes," Xiang Xi smiled, "I just want to lean on you behind my back."
"Okay, just lie down and don't move," Cheng Boyan took the pillow to the other side of the bed, then half hugged and half dragged him away, "Is that so?"
"Yeah." Xiang Xi nodded.
Cheng Boyan originally wanted to go back to sit on the sofa, but after thinking about it, he didn't go. He took off his clothes and lay down on the bed, leaning against the head of the bed to read a book.
Xiang Xi leaned on him comfortably, adjusted his posture and asked softly, "Is your hand serious? Will there be any sequelae?"
"No, the wound is not deep," Cheng Boyan patted him, "I just grabbed it, and I let go when he drew the knife. I am such a smart and quick-response person."
"I really want to go up today," Xiang Xi snorted, and after a while, I sighed. "I actually held back."
"No need," Cheng Boyan said, "Xiao Xixi is a mature man now, and she won't do such things lightly."
"I've always been very mature, and I only turn my belly when I'm in front of you," Xiang Xi said with a smile, and after thinking about it, he said, "You said, Da Jian came by himself, or did he let him do it in the second set?" here?"
"What do you think?" Cheng Boyan turned a page of the book.

Xiang Xi closed his eyes and slowly analyzed, "Da Jian is the second The person who made the move, the person who made the second move, can't stand up for Uncle Ping, and if he is really caught, he might push it on Uncle Ping."

"It's good that he was caught." Cheng Boyan smiled.

"You were injured and frightened again today," Cheng Boyan touched his arm, "I don't care about you, so don't let it go, you don't have room to smoke."
"I'll... just say it." Xiang Xi rubbed his nose.
"Aren't the police very friendly today?" Cheng Boyan put down his book, "It's not as scary as you think."

"Don't move around," Cheng Boyan pressed him, "I'll find out first, and I'll talk about it when I need you to go."
"Should I take a photo first, the kind of ID card?" Xiang Xi asked, "The last time I took a photo was when I got the fake ID of Zhan Hongtu... Tell me, if I can get it done, how old am I?

"There probably won't be any more. Anyone who is not blind knows that I have already connected with the police." Xiang Xi walked to the window and looked down, "Besides, the bodyguards have already arrived."
"What?" Cheng Boyan was stunned for a moment, "Didn't the police stop saying this yesterday?"
"Didn't Brother Song also say yesterday, stop following me, let's just go together, let's walk to the head office with my friends..." Xiang Xi smiled for a long time, "Is he really here?"
"I'm convinced," Cheng Boyan sighed, but after Dajian's incident, no one should come to the door like this again, and now it's better to hide as far away as possible, "Then if you want to go out today Come with them."

He urged Cheng Boyan to go out just now, but now that Cheng Boyan went downstairs, he felt a little lost and stood there for a long time without moving.

How should the time of the day be spent?
I don’t want to make breakfast, and I only have one arm. I don’t want to clean the house, and I only have one arm. I don’t want to read books, and I only have one arm.
In the end, he wandered around the room, sitting here and there, and tossing and tossing until after ten o'clock. He was really bored, and the TV was full of TV shopping at this time. After thinking about it, he got up and put his bag on his back, ready to go downstairs. go around.
If this boredom continues, he feels that he will start to wonder what Director Xu thinks of him...
Song Yi's trio was still downstairs. Seeing him coming down, several people came over, and a tall man greeted him: "Little brother, are you going out?"
"Turn around, it's too boring to stay in the room," Xiang Xi smiled, "Yesterday... Thank you, what do you call me?"
"Don't thank me. I also said not to get too close to you. In the end, it's better to stick to you from the beginning, and nothing like this will happen. My surname is Wang." The tall man pointed to the other two, "You Brother Liu and Brother Li."
"Thank you brother, no one expected that someone would come," Xiang Xi said, "Then you guys today..."
"It's within two meters," Brother Liu on the side answered, "You don't have to worry about us if you do your own thing."
There are a few people who have a funny relationship with others. Xiang Xi always feels that he is shopping with a younger brother to collect protection fees, and the three of them don’t chat much. They walk slowly two meters behind them, and they say a few words from time to time. sentence.
Xiang Xi walked around in the small garden, there were not many people, just a few aunts chatting.
He found a bench that was a bit out of the way and sat down, took out his mobile phone and called old man Lu.
Old man Lu knew that he had no parents and was alone, so when he heard that he was injured, he became very anxious: "Is the injury serious? Didn't you go to the hospital?"
"It's not serious, really, my friend is a doctor, or an orthopedic surgeon, don't worry, he said that he doesn't need to be hospitalized, and this position will heal after a while with his arms hanging," Xiang Xi said with a smile, "I'm now Still going for a walk outside."
"Walk? Do you want to take a walk and come to the tea room?" Old man Lu smiled, "The air here is so good, why don't you come over here. Hu Hai brought me a leg of lamb at noon, and the three of us just ate together ,How about it?"
"Eat leg of lamb?" When Xiang Xi heard this, he immediately became greedy. He didn't eat breakfast, and the big meal that was agreed yesterday was gone... But he still followed his three elder brothers, "I..."
Brother Wang almost understood the content of the phone call, and waved to him, gesturing him to go.
"I'll be there in a while." Xiang Xi said immediately.
After hanging up the phone, Xiang Xi followed them into the car, and Brother Liu drove.
"Don't worry about us," Brother Liu said, "When we went with you last time, we saw a barbecue restaurant at the intersection. It looked pretty good, and we said that we would eat there someday."
"I invite you to eat!" Xiang Xi patted his bag.
"Why do you invite me?" Brother Wang smiled, "Someone treats you."
Xiang Xi laughed as soon as he heard it, and probably these were Song Yi's bags. Speaking of which, when things calm down, he should seriously treat Song Yi to a meal.
After the weather turned cooler, walking the small path outside the Tea Research Institute was quite pleasant, with the breeze blowing, Xiang Xi felt that his steps were much lighter.
When he walked to the tea room, he heard the sound of the piano, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw the green eyes outside the window facing the door, and he felt comfortable for a while.
"Coming?" Hu Hai, who was playing the piano, stopped.
"Hello, senior brother," Xiang Xi hurried over, "Is your hand ready?"
"Okay, I won't be able to see it the next day," Hu Hai smiled, "Don't call me Senior Brother, it's too formal, just be casual."
"Brother Hai," Xiang Xi changed his address, "Where's my master?"
"I went back to get the food, and said that one leg is not enough for us to eat." Hu Hai plucked the strings, "How did you get this arm?"
"It's not the arm," Xiang Xi turned sideways, pointing to his back, "it's the shoulder blade, it fell."
"Did you fall?" Hu Hai laughed after thinking about it, and a series of casual and melodious piano sounds slipped out from his fingertips, "The posture of falling is very difficult, is it a fight?"
"No." Xiang Xi said.
"Really?" Hu Hai glanced at him.
"No!" Xiang Xi looked at him and said it again with an emphatic tone.
"Well," Hu Hai smiled, "then pay attention to rest."
"Really not!" Xiang Xi sat down on a chair and stared at him.
Hu Hai stopped strumming on the strings, and raised his eyes to look at him seriously: "I see, it's not a fight... In fact, I also guessed randomly. If the master said that he was injured, I probably wouldn't." Will ask if there is a fight."
Xiang Xi smiled, and asked again after a while: "Have you followed Master for a long time?"
"The time is not short," Hu Hai continued to play the piano, "If you don't count learning tea from him, it has been ten or twenty years."
"So long? I've only lived for 20 years," Xiang Xi was stunned. "Actually, you two are relatives, right?"
Hu Hai laughed and took a sip of tea from the teacup next to him: "It's not a relative, but I've known him since I was a teenager, right here. At that time he hadn't become a fairy, just an ordinary middle-aged man."
"Oh..." Xiang Xi looked at the pot on the tea table and the freshly brewed tea, he poured himself a cup and refilled it for Hu Hai, "At that time, this was the tea mountain, right? "
"Yes, it has always been, much longer than tea research." Hu Hai said.
Xiang Xi went to lean against the window and looked out.
Outside the window is a terrace built with wooden boards. The floor and railings are all the original color of wood.
There is a tea table and a few stools on the terrace. The sun is not so strong this time. It should be enjoyable to sit outside and drink tea. The sound of the piano is refreshing, and the green tea mountains can be seen when you look down and up.
Hu Hai should be regarded as quite...a person, he would have come to such a place in his teens. If it were him, if he hadn't learned tea from him, he probably would never have thought of wandering around the tea mountain.
"People who can play the piano are different." Xiang Xi sighed.
"Are you talking about me?" Hu Hai asked with a smile.
"Yeah," Xiang Xi saw that he stopped, and stretched out his hand to try to hook the strings, "When I was a teenager... Anyway, I wouldn't come here to experience life."
"I didn't come here to experience life, and I didn't know how to play the piano at that time." Hu Hai continued to play along with the note he ticked off, "Master asked me to learn the piano, saying it can calm people down and find something to do." You won’t be thinking about it when you’re doing it.”
"Thinking?" Xiang Xi didn't quite understand.
Hu Hai didn't speak anymore, he lowered his head and started playing the piano, the sound of the piano gradually changed from slow to urgent, Xiang Xi stared at his fingers, feeling a little dazed for a moment, the feeling of suddenly remembering many things.
Then the sound of the piano gradually slowed down, making people feel drowsy as if they were sitting by the stream, the wind blowing through the bamboo forest.
When old man Lu came in with a bag of vegetables, Hu Hai's piano sound stopped.
"Master, I'm here," he looked at Old Man Lu, "I've been listening to the piano for half the time, I've scared you to death."
"Which is half of it. He never stops when he starts playing. If he stops, I will stand outside today." Old man Lu raised the bag in his hand with a smile, "Come on, this is The vegetables grown by my family will be fried and eaten in a while."
"Let me see," Xiang Xi ran over with great interest, and the sound of the piano sounded again behind him, "Did you grow it in a pot?"
"Well, I've planted a lot, and I can't finish it. I'm a successful vegetable farmer," Old Man Lu said proudly, and looked at the splint on Xiang Xi's arm, "Are you serious?"
"It's really not serious, it needs to be fixed at this scale," Xiang Xi followed behind him, "How do we do it? Shall I cook?"
"There's Hu Hai, we just wait and eat," Old Man Lu put the dishes in the small kitchen, "Hu Hai!"
"Here we come." Hu Hai responded.
"I smell the leg of lamb, it smells so good." Xiang Xi sniffed, saw a leg of lamb on the table, jumped up, and whispered, "Can I eat it now? "
"What's the taste of leg of lamb?" Old man Lu smiled, "I need to process it again, and I can eat it in a while."
"The leg of lamb has the smell of cumin, and the smell of meat. It's kind of burnt..." Xiang Xi closed his mouth in the middle of speaking, afraid that if he continued to speak, he would not be able to keep his mouth watering.
"If you want to eat, I'll cut some for you and taste it first." Hu Hai came over just in time to hear him speak, went into the kitchen and took a knife, sliced a piece of meat from the leg of lamb, put it on a plate and handed it to Xiang Xi.
"Thank you, Brother Hai," Xiang Xi didn't pick up the plate, directly squeezed the meat into his mouth, and said vaguely, "Damn it's delicious..."
"Come on, let's drink tea first and wait to eat." Old man Lu patted him on the shoulder and sat down at the tea table, "You are here anyway, let's chat about tea and tell you about some kinds of tea Production Method."
"Okay." Xiang Xi sat down at the table and wiped his mouth. "Let's talk about the leg of lamb first. Did he make it himself? It tastes so good."
"Yes, I won't say anymore. He cooks very well. With him around, I don't have to worry about eating," Old Man Lu smiled. "He will come to my house during the Chinese New Year. Every time he comes back, my granddaughter will wait for him. He made a table for him."
"That's great." Xiang Xi sighed, and then thinking about himself and Cheng Boyan, the contrast was immediately clear at a glance.
Will Cheng Boyan cook during Chinese New Year?No, definitely not, Cheng Boyan has to go back to his parents' house during the Chinese New Year, or to his grandma's?Then... what about myself?follow?
Definitely not, Director Xu didn't think too highly of himself before, and now it's even more... and taking it home for the New Year, it's just delusional!
What should I do then?Stay alone during Chinese New Year?
When he was feeling very depressed, old man Lu said while making tea: "Hu Hai and you are pretty hit-and-miss, but with your character, you can hit it off with everyone."
"Vote?" Xiang Xi asked smoothly.
"I have brought a lot of apprentices over the years, and none of them are willing to talk to others. They can't say ten words in a few months." Old man Lu said with a smile, "This kid usually talks very little, and he doesn't like to talk to anyone." people."
"Ah?" Xiang Xi was a little surprised. Hu Hai couldn't talk much, but he was definitely not too little, and he was very kind, and he couldn't see where he didn't like to talk to people, "Don't fool me."
"Maybe your age... like his younger brother," Old Man Lu put the tea in front of him, "I never confiscated such a young apprentice as you before."
"Oh." Xiang Xi picked up the cup, his words reminded him of Cheng Boyan.
"If Hu Hai's younger brother is still alive, he should be about the same age as you." Old man Lu took a sip of his tea. What is life like."
Xiang Xi was silent, the old man's words made him feel emotional.
Yes, if he hadn't gotten close to Cheng Boyan, if any of them missed by accident, Cheng Boyan would not know the difference between the person who stole the wallet and the other thieves, and would not know his past, and he would also I don't know, that man with a handsome ID card photo hides a childish side behind his seriousness...
It's amazing, a person's life.
