Accumulate feathers sink the boat

This was the first time that Lu Xiangzhou left a return date, and Gong Yu, who watched him go out, was completely shocked, as if he had suddenly won tens of millions of bankrupts, and even had lingering fears when he went to receive the prize.

However, the words "I want to drink pork rib soup" seem to have great magic power. People who were originally numb and dull from day to day found great interest in it. After leaving the door, he also ran two or three vegetable markets with his tenacity, just to pick out Lu Xiangzhou's favorite ribs.It needs less meat, more tendons, more bone marrow, and it must be freshly killed, otherwise there will be an overnight smell.

Even the aunt in the vegetable market couldn't help giving a thumbs up when she saw the disabled Gong Yu, saying that such a hard-working guy is not common, and he has to go out to buy vegetables with a limping leg. How distressed this family will be when they know.

So that day Lu Xiangzhou just opened the door, and before he had time to enter the house, he smelled a strong smell of bones. With this concentration, he had to simmer for at least four hours.He walked towards the kitchen with great interest, and found that Gong Yu was standing by the side of the pot stirring the spoon, and he didn't even notice that he was here.

"So serious, what about doing scientific research?"

"Why are you here?" Gong Yu shook his hand holding the spoon, "The soup is still a bit short, why don't you sit down first? Shall I cook some side dishes for you?"

"Isn't that good?" Lu Xiangzhou poked his head out from behind Gong Yu, "It's almost milky white, are you going to participate in some kind of chef competition?"

"Wow...how could it be such an exaggeration. The bone is good. The person who sold the bone said that the more it is boiled, the more fragrant it will be. I think it will be about eight hours."

"Eight hours??? How long have you been up now?"

"It's more than six hours. I only used a pressure cooker to press it for a while, and I spent the rest of the time slowly cooking it, so that the smell comes out."

"Oh my God......"

Lu Xiangzhou asked himself that he was already particular about cooking, but he couldn't do it with a casserole for six hours without a pressure cooker, no matter how patient he was.

"Don't you think it's troublesome? How big is the difference between this casserole and a pressure cooker? It's almost done."

"That's the same as anywhere. The really delicious soup is not made by a pressure cooker. Anyway, I'm fine, and the soup is quite fulfilling."

It was originally just a random recipe, but it was turned into a big project by Gong Yu. Lu Xiangzhou felt a little guilty, but he also had more small pride. The contradictory villain dragged his upbringing, making him unable to answer a word for a long time .

"Okay, you go and sit on the sofa for a while, I bought some other dishes, I just take this time to fry them, the bones are almost ready."

If I remember correctly, this should be the first time since Lu Xiangzhou met Gong Yu that he became the person waiting for the food to be served, not only waiting for the food to be served, looking around, but also having nothing to do at all.Because since he told her last time, Gong Yu has done a good job of cleaning the house—independently and autonomously, without relying on the cleaning aunt, she personally tidied up the inside and outside of the house.Not only that, but he was obsessive-compulsive and arranged all the exposed ornaments in order from big to small, so that Lu Xiangzhou had to be careful when he picked up whatever he wanted, lest he put it in the wrong order.

It's so funny.

When he didn't give Gong Yu any hope, this man was downcast all day long, his 40-year-old soul had a 90-year-old soul, and the purpose of living every day was to wait for death. Things should be prepared early.

As a result, he has been given a little motivation now, good guy, the whole person seems to be rejuvenated, let alone 40 years old, this step is directly back.If he was asked to fetch water, he would dig a well, and if he was asked to cook, he would open a shop. Lu Xiangzhou was glad that he only said he wanted to eat bone soup, otherwise he was really afraid that Gong Yu would make him a model worker these days.

"The deep-fried shrimp is ready, why don't you come over and eat it first, this dish won't taste good when it's cold."

"How many side dishes do you call this?" Lu Xiangzhou watched the plate of glowing red prawns slowly, and subconsciously swallowed.

"Oh, it's just home-cooked food, so you always cook it."

"Gong Yu, not all dishes cooked at home are called home-cooked dishes. I think you should have this common sense..."

"Oh, oh, that...that's not a home-cooked dish, but...but it's also edible! I've studied it for a long time, and the taste can't be wrong!"

Of course you can eat it, Lu Xiangzhou thought to himself, this dish is exactly the same as the one he made before, no matter how it looks or smells, it is really strange, it is said that he did not leave any recipes when he cooks, how did Gong Yu figure it out ?

"Eat it first! I'll fry some tofu, it's simple, it'll be ready soon, then there's green vegetables, and finally there's jellyfish mixed in, that's all for today!"

Mix jellyfish at the end... Lu Xiangzhou would like to kindly remind Gong Yu that most people cook cold dishes first and then serve big dishes, but seeing his enthusiasm, he didn't have the heart to be picky, so he could only sit down and listen to the instructions , start peeling the shrimp.

Probably because he really didn't cook much at ordinary times, and Gong Yu's cooking speed was really fast, and he put together several dishes in a short time. He put the bone soup in the largest soup pot and carried it up.A table of dishes looks red, white, and green. You don’t need to taste it, you feel comfortable just looking at the appearance.

Lu Xiangzhou was greedy, so he grabbed his chopsticks and started working. After eating for a while, he noticed that Gong Yu was just beside him and was just peeling the shrimp, without even touching the bowl.

"Hey, why don't you eat?"

"No, I want to eat. I'll watch you eat for a while."

"Why do you want to watch me eat? Is there poison in this dish?"

"Nonsense," a peeled shrimp went into Lu Xiangzhou's bowl again, "I just haven't seen you eat my cooking, it's fresh, I want to see more."

"What's so new about this? You can do it if you can't do it in the future. If you don't make enough, you can add more meals. I can eat quite a lot for supper now."

In the future, both.

A word that was too unfamiliar appeared in Gong Yu's ears, and he blinked, thinking that it was at best a slip of the tongue.

"If you're willing to eat, I'm of course willing to cook. It doesn't matter if you don't. Anyway, you cook better than me. I'm just imitating myself."

"You also know that you are an imitation of Dong Shi?" Lu Xiangzhou became interested when he found that Gong Yu had confessed himself, "Then tell me, why do you learn how to cook like me? The ratio of vinegar has not changed at all, it scares me to death, I thought I mixed it myself out of my body."

"No... I didn't do it deliberately. I just wanted to cook by myself, but I couldn't think of any special taste. I ate the most dishes from you before, so I simply learned how to cook. It didn't work at the beginning. I was wrong. The taste The taste was not right, but after making more, it gradually got better..."

"Just started? When did it first start?"

With the sharpness of his Chinese teacher, Lu Xiangzhou can always accurately capture key words.

"Probably... when you had mental problems, or maybe earlier, I really forgot, I didn't remember much about it."

"Your hair turned white, isn't that the same time?"

In fact, there is no need to ask this question. The first time Lu Xiangzhou saw Gong Yu wearing a hat was the group photo of his classmate reunion. At that time, he had not resigned from the hospital. ——

"No, no, no, don't think too much about it, it will be a long time later, today... only this year, after I resigned."

But he didn't expect that Gong Yu would tell such a clumsy lie, and he didn't even bother to type a draft.

"Really? Then you used to wear hats just for entertainment?"

"Before...? Before what?"

"Student reunion, go to my house for a short stay. One time is not enough. I have gone four or five times. The surveillance cameras have captured it for you. Do you want me to provide you with evidence?"

"I...I, I..." A bunch of sophistry flashed through Gong Yu's mind, and he nervously sifted through it, but suddenly figured out a question in the blink of an eye.

"That's why you came to eat with me?"

"What do you mean that's why I came to eat with you?" Lu Xiangzhou was dumbfounded by the question.

"Do you think my hair is gray because of you, and I'm sick because of you, so...so—"

"So I want to make it up to you?"

Lu Xiangzhou easily said the words he didn't want to hear. Gong Yu lowered his head and dug his nails deeply into his palms.

"Since you said that, then I would also like to ask you. At that time in your hospital, you cried and begged me to give you another chance. Was it because you wanted to make up for me? Oh yes, you did say you wanted to make up. Then go ahead, block me at my house, block me at school, or even block me at my mother, is it because you want to make up for it?"

???

The distorted question returned to Gong Yu in a completely incomprehensible manner, and he was at a loss, completely unaware of the relationship between these two matters.

"That...that's different, I...me and you, at that time, I wasn't—"

"Not what? Make it clear!"

The originally relaxed atmosphere became serious, even if Gong Yu wanted to talk nonsense, he had to think more about the consequences.

"I don't, I don't...I want to make it up to you, how could I not want to make it up to you? You have suffered so much in vain, you have suffered so much that you shouldn't have suffered, I...I should have done it no matter what Make it up to you! But...but I begged you, I begged you so many times, it wasn't all because I was afraid that you would not forgive me, I was afraid, I was actually more afraid...that I would not see you, I I'm afraid I won't see you again, Xiang Zhou!"

Say it so easily?It was so easy, so easy that Lu Xiangzhou almost couldn't believe it.

"Oh, I'm afraid I won't see me. I've been urging you to go home early for so many years and I beg you not to be afraid when you're working overtime. You're afraid when I get sick? You're quite flexible in thinking."

"No...no, so I don't know..."

"Do not know what is this?"

"I don't know what love is, and I don't know how to love. Xiang Zhou, no one taught me. You know the atmosphere in my family since I was a child. No one of us said this. Marriage is to live with a partner. We don't talk about such extravagance. The hospital is busy every day, I really... When I have the opportunity, I really never think that those are the opportunities you gave me..."

"Then why do you suddenly know and fall in love again? Just because I want to divorce you, just because I had an operation you didn't expect? Do you think this makes sense?"

"Not because of these...these are effects, not causes..."

"What's the reason? Tell me about it and let me learn more."

"Because...because it is..."

Words that were never meant to be said came to his lips again, Gong Yu thought to himself, even if there is no way out, at least let Lu Xiangzhou know that I really love him, right?He is so good, there is no reason to feel that he has not been loved by anyone for a long time in this life until the end of his life. He at least...at least should know that in that relationship, it was always me who failed, not him.

"It was I who discovered that only you could make me happy. Before the divorce, I always thought that curing the sick was the happiest and overcoming difficulties was the happiest, but after you left, I found that these things were meaningless. Instead, it was your books, you wrote I read those notes over and over again, thought of you over and over again, and felt happy over and over again. I didn’t know, I really didn’t think about it, the reason why I can keep calm under high-pressure work all these years is because of you .

I really fell in love with you too late, but I feel, I always feel, in fact...actually, it could have been earlier..."
