Jiangzhu's Summer

Chapter 23 Cranberry Cookies

"Hello, Auntie." The Qingjuan boy stood at the door, with a pair of bright eyes, holding a huge bouquet of flowers, meeting Bai Wei's gaze, with a dimple on the corner of his mouth, smiling shyly.

Really good looking.She evaluated secretly in her heart.

She heard her son talk about Zhu Jingci's life experience before, and she had a little pity for the child, but now she saw the real person, and he is such a good-looking boy, but he is thin and looks like he has suffered. I can't help but love and feel distressed.Chase? Wen 6 (three O>6 long ^ two $ three long [-]

"Here are the flowers for you." The boy handed over the bouquet, his eyelashes flickering, and there was a secret anxiety hidden in his eyes.

"Hey, it's so beautiful," Bai Wei hurriedly reached out to take it, and placed the bouquet in the most conspicuous position in the entrance, "It's costing you money, come and sit down."

She pulled Zhu Jingci to sit down, and hurriedly pushed the dim sum plate on the table towards him, "Zhu Zhu, come and have some dim sum, I just made it."

"This cranberry cookie is Jiang Jiang's favorite."

As he said that, he got up and planned to find a vase to put the bouquet in.

Zhu Jingci heard that Jiang Chenyu liked it, so he couldn't help but took a bite. The cranberry pulp was sweet and sour, and the biscuits were crispy, with chocolate filling inside. The recipe was really novel.He took a big bite, and the chocolate sandwich almost flowed out, and quickly put the whole thing into his mouth, his cheeks were bulging.

Bai Wei just came back from putting the flowers away, and seeing his hamster-like cheeks, she thought that he liked eating too much, and felt even more distressed, so she said softly, "Eat slowly, there is still enough, when I leave later, Auntie will bring some for you."

Bai Wei pulled Zhu Jingci to sit on the sofa, and chatted with him one after another, asking him if he was struggling to study when he transferred to another school, and whether Jiang Chenyu bullied him at school, and kept handing him snacks, I'm afraid he's hungry.

Zhu Jingci bit the mochi and replied obediently, "Jiang Chenyu has been tutoring me in my studies. He has a good temper and won't bully me."

When Bai Wei heard him praise her son, she pursed her lips and smiled, "It's the first time I know that Jiang Jiang can tutor people in learning. In the past, Mumu came to ask him questions that he didn't know. He became impatient after talking for a while, and almost Make people cry."

He turned his head to look at Jiang Chenyu again, and said teasingly, "It seems that falling in love can also open up people's minds."

"Mom, let's serve dinner, everyone is hungry." Jiang Chenyu changed the subject with some embarrassment.

Bai Wei was distracted by him, but she forgot about it, and got up quickly, "Take Zhu Zhu to wash your hands, I'll go to the kitchen to have a look, there's one last soup that'll be fine."

Jiang Chenyu took Zhu Jingci to the bathroom, and he also leaned beside the sink, took Zhu Jingci's hand and pressed the hand sanitizer, his four hands intertwined, rubbing out fine foam.

"Jiang Jiang?" Zhu Jingci imitated Bai Wei's tone, "Your mother called you that, so cute."

"She has been calling that way since she was a child, and it's useless to say it, so I just listened to it." Jiang Chenyu lowered his head, rubbing his ten fingers, pinching them from root to fingertip little by little.

For no reason, Zhu Jingci felt that this kind of action was a little ambiguous, and his cheeks were slightly pink, "Jiang Jiang, Xiao Yuer, Jiang Xiaoyu, looking at it this way, no matter what you call you, it sounds nice."

Jiang Chenyu stretched out his foamy finger and scratched the tip of his nose, "Yanyan sounds nice too."

"Yes, Yanyan, it sounds nicer, or is it nicer to say Yanyan?" Zhu Jingci washed the foam off his hands, and the corners of his mouth slightly turned up.

Jiang Chenyu: "..." Sure enough, one should not underestimate his mouth at any time.

When the two came out, the dishes had already been set on the table.Bai Wei was at the dining table, calling out to them, "Zhu Zhu, hurry up and have dinner."

"Jiang Jiang only said that you like spicy and sweet food, but he didn't say what kind of dishes. I picked out these two flavors and asked people to cook them. Do you like them?" Bai Wei said .

The dishes on the table are dazzling, the goose wings are browned on the surface, covered with chili powder, the sugar juice on the outside of the pot meat is crystal clear, a large pot of boiled fish is bright red, the iron plate eggplant is sizzling, and the glutinous rice cakes are crispy on the outside, sprinkled with brown sugar juice , Rolled another layer of soybean flour.

It was rare for Zhu Jingci to receive such vigorous kindness from others, and he didn't even know how to respond for a while, and he couldn't put down his chopsticks for a long time.Bai Wei saw his embarrassment, brought him some food, and deliberately led Jiang Chenyu to talk to him so that he wouldn't be too nervous.

Slowly, it became Bai Wei asking, and Zhu Jing saying, and after a meal, the latter told many interesting things about Jiang Chenyu at school.

Before leaving, Bai Wei packed a box of cranberry cookies and insisted that he take them home to eat. "I'll definitely come back next time when I'm free." As he spoke, he specifically told Jiang Chenyu to send him home safely.

"Huh, I almost died of nervousness." Zhu Jingci left the door, heaved a long sigh of relief, and secretly said to Jiang Chenyu.

"Really? I see that you had a good chat with my mother, and sold out my affairs at school." Jiang Chenyu teased him.

"That's because I was so nervous that I couldn't choose what to say." Zhu Jingci put his fingers into Jiang Chenyu's palm flatteringly, "Touch and see, you're sweating."

"You have many reasons." Jiang Chenyu nodded his nose and smiled.

The end of the year was approaching, and Xu Mumu was bored at home.Xu's mother was busy preparing the new year's goods and cleaning the house, and had no time to supervise him to study, so he asked Zhu Jingci and Jiang Chenyu to go out for a stroll.

Said to go out to play, there is nothing to go shopping, the video game city is full of elementary school students, noisy, and there are no interesting movies in the cinema, so I can only find a drink shop on the street to sit around.

Xu Mumu was bored with a straw in his mouth, and asked casually, "Jiang Chenyu, will your family still go to Australia to celebrate the New Year this year?"

Zhu Jing's action of adding cube sugar to the coffee stopped abruptly.He didn't look up, and heard the person sitting beside him reply casually, "Well, the ticket has been booked."

Holding the coffee spoon in his hand, he unconsciously stirred the coffee in front of him, pretending to ask casually, "Are you going abroad for the New Year?"

Jiang Chenyu paused, and before he had time to speak, Xu Mumu answered for him, "Aunt Bai is afraid of the cold, so Jiang Chenyu's family has to go to other places every winter to spend the winter. It turned out to be Sanya. Uncle Jiang's share in Australia for the past two years The company developed and it was more convenient, so they went to Australia instead.”

"Oh, that's it." Zhu Jingci lowered his head and noticed that the latte art on the surface of the coffee had been stirred to pieces.The original white cat silhouette now has chaotic lines and is messed up with the brown coffee, making it look like it has no appetite.

Jiang Chenyu looked at him from the side, opened his mouth as if about to say something, and stopped looking at him again.

Zhu Jingci picked up the cup and took a sip. The original bitterness of the coffee revealed a cheap sweetness. After drinking it, he felt his throat tighten.There shouldn't be so much sugar in it, he thought.

A hand was stretched out from the side, and a cup of drink was pushed over, "Stop drinking coffee, drink this."

Zhu Jingci raised his eyes and saw that it was the cup of honey citron tea that Jiang Chenyu ordered earlier. It was orange-yellow and looked very warm.

Jiang Chenyu took advantage of the situation and planned to take his coffee cup away.

He tilted his head, with a little anger that he didn't know where he came from, and hooked his fingers on the handle of the coffee cup, refusing to let go, "No, I don't want to drink sweet."

Jiang Chenyu didn't expect his resistance, and before he could retract his hand, the coffee cup was pulled by two forces, shaking, and the dark liquid spilled out and began to flow along the transparent tabletop.

Zhu Jingci hissed softly, and some coffee liquid splashed on the back of his hand.

Jiang Chenyu quickly took out two tissues and carefully dipped the coffee on the back of his hand.The coffee was not very hot, but the back of his hand was still red, like a round birthmark.

"Wait a minute." Jiang Chenyu stood up and walked to the waiter at the front desk, not knowing what he was talking about.

Zhu Jingci sat there, refusing to look up, as if he didn't care what he was doing, just took the tissue he had just used and pressed it on the water stain on the table.

Not much coffee was spilled, the table was quickly wiped clean, only the edge remained, dripping down little by little, he stared at the water in a daze.

The sip of coffee he drank just now seemed to have reached his stomach, and even his stomach began to ache. He had no choice but to grab the pillow on the sofa and hug it in his arms, trying to relieve it.

He knew that his emotions were inexplicable.Xu Mumu also said that it is a tradition of Jiang Chenyu's family to go abroad for the New Year, and he has never asked Jiang Chenyu about the New Year, so how can Jiang Chenyu talk to himself.

This matter is beyond Jiang Chenyu's control, and it should not be blamed on Jiang Chenyu.

Jiang Chenyu came back soon, took a disposable cup, sat next to Zhu Jingci, "stretch your hand over."

Zhu Jingci passed the hand over silently, noticing that the glass was filled with ice cubes.

Jiang Chenyu didn't speak anymore, took out a tissue, wrapped the ice cubes, and pressed the hot red spot on the back of his hand.

The first time the ice cube touched his skin, Zhu Jingci couldn't help shivering.Jiang Chenyu glanced at him, said nothing, but involuntarily relaxed the strength in his hands.

Zhu Jingci lowered his head, and the two fingers of the other hand pretended to be walking, quietly crawled across the sofa pillow, climbed onto Jiang Chenyu's wrist, put it on it, and moved it flatteringly.

The skin on Jiang Chenyu's wrist may feel dry and cold to the touch due to the fact that he pressed the ice cubes with his hand, and the color is a little pale. You can see the light blue blood vessels on the wrist from the side.

Zhu Jingci couldn't help sticking his finger on it, feeling the beating of the pulse with his fingertips, once and again.

Jiang Chenyu curled up his fingers invisibly because of his almost coquettish action.Then he stretched out his other hand and gently pulled his hand away, "Don't make trouble, you need to apply ice for a while, or it will hurt again."

"You two," Xu Mumu sat across from him and knocked on the table with the handle of a spoon, looking unlovable, "If you want to show your love, please go out and turn left to go home to show. You have thought about the dog sitting opposite for a second. Do you feel it?"
