Little Chef [Rebirth]

Sitting facing each other, the sky outside has completely darkened at this time, the sky seems to be completely drawn by a black curtain, only a few stars and a bright moon can be seen.

Lighting up the oil lamp on the dining table, Ning Xiuyuan carefully picked the chili seeds attached to the beef, put the picked cumin beef into Mo Fanyu's bowl, and looked up at the other party with sparkling eyes, Eyes are clear.

"Try it."

"Okay." Mo Fanyu smiled, and then put the beef in the bowl into his mouth. Although it was still a bit spicy, the spiciness could not cover up the taste of the dish itself. He found that the meat was not like old beef at all. The meat is usually hard to chew, but it is extremely smooth and tender, and the taste is better than all kinds of cooking he has ever eaten.

"It's delicious." Looking up, Mo Fanyu frowned, tilted his head and thought for a while, and then gave Ning Xiuyuan a thumbs up - this is what he saw Ning Xiuyuan do before, and he should think about it It means praise.

Mo Fanyu: "Is this meant as a compliment?"

"Ah," Ning Xiuyuan watched Mo Fanyu give him a thumbs up, and couldn't help laughing. He nodded and said, "It's just a compliment."

After finishing speaking, he lowered his head and carefully pushed aside the chili peppers in the same manner, picked up a piece of boiled meat, and put it into Mo Fanyu's bowl again.

"There is a lot of chili in this dish. When you eat it, you have to push the chili and pick out the chili seeds like me. It won't be so spicy."

"Thank you." Thank you softly, the smile in Mo Fanyu's eyes revealed little by little, gradually permeating the entire brow, under the light of the oil lamp, the originally sharp-edged face will look extremely soft.

This dinner was very warm, the house was full of warmth, warming people's hearts, as if the cold wind outside could no longer make them feel cold.

After dinner, Mo Fanyu followed Ning Xiuyuan and squatted down to wash the dishes with him.

Ning Xiuyuan was unwilling to let Mo Fanyu do such a job. After all, the well water was still very cold at night like this. He was used to it and thought it would be fine, but Mo Fanyu was different.

But when he met Mo Fanyu's firm eyes, he still couldn't help but compromise, thinking in his heart, it's good to be together.

After washing the dishes and tidying up the kitchen, it was still early, and it was not time to rest, and there was nothing else to do around, so the two simply went to the study together to continue the unfinished business after the opening of the restaurant.

After closing the doors and windows, Ning Xiuyuan put the hand warmer inside the house on, and then hugged it in his arms, trying to warm up his cold hands quickly.

Mo Fanyu stood aside and looked down at Ning Xiuyuan, who was sitting on a chair and huddled with a hand warmer, his eyes flashed, and after a while, he bent down and hugged Ning Xiuyuan and the hand warmer into his arms.

"I am cold."

Before Ning Xiuyuan opened his mouth, Mo Fanyu's tone was a little coquettish, as if his actions were really just because he was cold and wanted to find a heater to hug——

And Ning Xiuyuan who was holding the stove became his 'stove' that's all.

Being held in Mo Fanyu's arms, feeling the warm chest of the boy who was holding him, Ning Xiuyuan's whole body became stiff, he had never been so intimate with anyone before!

The heart was beating fast as if it was about to burst open his chest, Ning Xiuyuan let out a thud, his fair face turned red, feeling the warm breath coming from his ears, the roots of his ears also began to gradually heat up.

He moved uncomfortably, panic flashed in his eyes, then he struggled to get out of Mo Fanyu's arms, conveniently stuffed the stove in his arms into the arms of the boy standing beside him, lowered his head, so Tsukuru calmly said, "Then I'll hold this for you."

Ning Xiuyuan: "Anyway, I've warmed up now." No wonder!

He felt that he needed to buy another hand warmer when he went out tomorrow. After all, the weather in Nancheng would take at least April to completely warm up. If something like this happened again in the future, it would be embarrassing!

Mo Fanyu lowered his head and glanced at the stove that he was holding in his arms. He was a little dazed, with an innocent expression on his face. When he raised his head, he looked at Ning Xiuyuan without blinking. After a while, he retracted his gaze, and then hugged him silently. Sit down by the fire.

There was an air of 'he is very disappointed' all over his body, it looked as if Ning Xiuyuan had done something bad to him.

"..." Ning Xiuyuan was very surprised, his eyes widened.Is Mo Fanyu possessed by some strange thing?Otherwise, what is going on now?

Putting his grown-up mouth back, Ning Xiuyuan felt that the young man sitting opposite him probably had multiple personalities... Otherwise, how could he suddenly become like this right now?

It is completely inconsistent with the cold and cheerless appearance in the past!

After continuing to look at it for a while, Ning Xiuyuan withdrew his gaze, turned his face away, and stopped looking at Mo Fanyu at this time, and then began to pick up a brush to write and draw on the paper by himself.

After a while, Mo Fanyu realized that Ning Xiuyuan had stopped looking at him and turned his head down to do his own thing. He pursed his lips, and a glint of light flashed in his eyes. After a while, he stood up and walked from the bookshelf beside him. After taking a book of medical techniques, he sat down and read it quietly.

The two of them remained silent for a long while before Ning Xiuyuan broke the silence of the room.

He said: "Xiaoyu, when the restaurant opens, I might move to live there, it will be much more convenient." After seeing the attached yard, he was quite satisfied.

Hearing this, Mo Fanyu raised his head from the book, stared at the young man who was talking for a while, then he frowned slightly, and said disapprovingly, "I don't think it's good for you to live there."

——He didn't want Ning Xiuyuan to eat and live with other men. Although he didn't have any contact, he didn't like it either, and he didn't want to.

"Huh?" Ning Xiuyuan turned his head to look at Mo Fanyu with puzzlement in his eyes.

Mo Fanyu: "If a restaurant opens, it will always need to invite the shopkeeper and the staff. They also need a place to live. Isn't it just right for them to live in the yard? Besides, if you move there, who will take care of the vegetable field in the backyard?" ?”

Ning Xiuyuan thought about it, and it was true, not to mention that even if the restaurant was to officially welcome guests, it was almost noon. He hesitated and calculated the distance, and found that it took about half an hour from home to the restaurant, which was not too far.

It's not too bad to walk back and forth as a workout.

What's more, if they really moved there, there would be no one to take care of the vegetable field, which was cultivated with their hard work. Thinking about it this way, he simply dismissed the idea.

"Well, what Xiao Yu said is also right, let's forget it."

Hearing this, Mo Fanyu smiled, changed the subject, and said, "Xiao Yuan, I think you can actually continue to keep that shopkeeper Xu."

"En?" Ning Xiuyuan asked, "Why?" Shopkeeper Xu was originally the owner of the shop, so it would be bad for him to change his identity and stay to help him.

Mo Fanyu put the book in his hand on the table, pondered for a while, and then said slowly: "When it comes to running a restaurant, you and I are not as good as him. He is desperate now. If you are willing to keep him, you can do it in the future." , he will definitely repay you well, not to mention that if you want to find another shopkeeper, I am afraid it will take a lot of time."

This makes sense, so Ning Xiuyuan really thought about it.

Ning Xiuyuan: "It's just that we don't know what he is like. If the time comes..." The following words don't need to be explained, anyone can understand.

Mo Fanyu stretched out his hand and patted Ning Xiuyuan's head lightly, and said, "He has been running a restaurant in Nancheng for so long, you only need to ask someone a little bit, and you will be able to find out."

After Mo Fanyu's reminder, Ning Xiuyuan was like enlightened, suddenly realized, why he forgot, if he wants to know the character of shopkeeper Xu, he only needs to inquire a little, and he will know.

Mo Fanyu seemed to know what Ning Xiuyuan was thinking, and continued: "Tomorrow, let's go find Bao Changyang again. He claims to be Bao inquiring, so just ask him about the behavior of Shopkeeper Xu. .”

"Alright." After a moment of silence, Ning Xiuyuan nodded.

While chatting, Ning Xiuyuan became a little sleepy. He raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, then opened his mouth and yawned, his eyes were a little confused.

At this time, the sound of the watchman calling the watch came from outside, and it turned out that it was already the second watch.

Ever since he came to this world, he went to bed early and got up early every day. Ning Xiuyuan had already formed the habit. At a certain time, sleepiness would naturally strike him, reminding him that it was time to go to bed.

Standing up unbearably, Ning Xiuyuan blinked his eyes to wake himself up, then lowered his head and said to Mo Fanyu who was still sitting on the chair: "Well, it's already the second watch (9-11), what should I do?" I'm resting, I still need to get up early tomorrow."

As he spoke, he yawned again uncontrollably.

Mo Fanyu glanced at Ning Xiuyuan from bottom to top, then lowered his eyes, and said softly, "Go to sleep first, I'll read for a while."

Really couldn't stand it anymore, Ning Xiuyuan heard the words, and didn't say anything more, just nodded indiscriminately, and then walked out of the house.

As soon as he opened the door, the cold wind from outside rushed towards him, which made Ning Xiuyuan wake up a little bit, but it was only for a while, when he returned to his room and shut the cold wind out, the drowsiness returned again.

Taking off his shoes and socks, and his coat, Ning Xiuyuan quickly climbed onto the bed with only his white inner coat on. After covering the quilt, he opened his eyes, remembered Mo Fanyu's hug just now, turned over and muttered to himself He said: "The idea just now must be an illusion, he is only fifteen."

Then sleepiness hit him, he closed his eyes, and after a while, he fell asleep.

A good night's dream.
