Tang Hua was sorting out the notes he had made during this period, when there was some movement outside the door.

"My lord." He Hua's face appeared from behind the door.

Tanghua looked at his face: "Huh? Come in. What's the matter?"

He Hua came in and reported: "The prince sent someone to invite you back to the mansion, saying that he would celebrate your birthday."

Tang Hua nodded to show that he understood, "Just tell that person that I will return home tomorrow."

After Tang Hua finished speaking, he was sorting out his notes.

He planned to go out with Ruan Shijie for three days, plus the trip to Ruchuan County, it would take five days in total.

He was not in the imperial capital for the past five days, so he had to explain the matters at hand, so as not to cause chaos in the Huangzhuang due to his leaving for the past five days, and this season's planting was in vain.

Tanghua will be eighteen this year, and because it is not a full birthday, King Jingning did not prepare in advance.

Tanghua was thinking about going out with Ruan Shijie to celebrate his birthday, King Jingning originally wanted to make it more grand for his son, at least invite his friends to come to the palace for a drink, and then invite a [-]% discount for the show.

As a result, Tang Hua said: "Father, let's forget about it. When you see a man who is eighteen, he invites people to drink and sing operas? Only an eighty-year-old old lady would do that."

King Jingning was so teased that he almost burst out laughing, and gave him a helpless look, "You're talking weird again." King Jingning couldn't hold him back, "It's as simple as that, just eat a longevity noodle at home?"

Tang Hua smiled, "It's better for a family to be together. If we can eat longevity noodles together, my son will feel blessed."

His words really touched King Jingning's heart, King Jingning patted him on the shoulder, sighing inwardly that he was sensible.

King Jingning looked at his face, "Then let's eat longevity noodles together as a family, and I'll call your elder brother back."

Tanghua hasn't seen his elder brother much recently, so he has some bad guesses in his heart.

He seemed to inadvertently ask: "Where did the eldest brother go these days? Why don't you see him come to play in the village?"

"Your imperial uncle gave him an errand, and my father didn't know about it." King Jingning said casually, "He's not in the imperial capital."

Looking at his father's appearance, Tang Hua knew in his heart that he was probably telling the truth, so he couldn't help but wonder what his elder brother was doing recently, so mysterious.

Gu Tangyu hurried back on horseback in the afternoon of Tanghua's birthday. On a hot day, he was wearing armor and a sword beside him.

Tanghua felt that something was wrong, and quietly asked Gu Tangyu, "Brother, what are you doing recently? Can I ask?"

"It's a blessing not to know anything." Gu Tangyu rubbed his head, "You can do your own errands with peace of mind, what are you asking about?"

Tang Hua followed him to the main courtyard to say hello, and raised his eyes to look at him, "Is your errand dangerous?"

"Uncle Huang is taking care of him. What danger can there be? Don't worry about it."

Tang Hua looked at his armor and didn't believe it at all.

Gu Tangyu received his suspicious eyes and still didn't say anything, just patted his shoulder and walked into the yard side by side with him.

The family is going to have dinner together tonight, and the three brothers are still bachelors.

Although Gu Tanghan was engaged, the rich family did not get married so fast, and their wedding date was postponed to October.

Therefore, only King Jingning and his wife and the three brothers Gu Tangyu had the banquet at night. The banquet was a bit quiet, and it was indeed a rare and lively moment in the Jingning Palace.

Looking at the banquet table in front of him, Tang Hua felt very emotional.

At this time two years ago, he had just been dispatched to Biezhuang, and his birthday was also in Biezhuang. The slave bullied the master, and he couldn't even get a better meal, let alone a whole table of banquets.

At this time, the whole family was having a banquet together, the princess's expression was still calm, and Gu Yanhan's face was also awkward, but anyway, the family celebrated together, which was almost unimaginable two years ago.

Tang Hua thought to himself, but didn't show much on his face.

Seeing him in a daze, King Jingning brought him some vegetables himself, "You like to use lion heads, so use more today."

Tang Hua hurriedly stretched out the bowl, "Thank you, Father."

The atmosphere became lively from this.

Gu Tangyu raised his wine glass to wish Tanghua a happy birthday.

Gu Tanghan also picked up the wine glass and toasted.

King Jingning was quite proud of the harmony between their brothers, he smiled until the wrinkles in his eyes appeared, and the princess also showed a faint smile on her head.

The whole family drank a lot of wine that night, and even the princess drank several cups until she was slightly tipsy.

Tanghua told them that he wanted to go to Nabiezhuang in Ruchuan County to inspect it, and he was not in the imperial capital for several days.

King Jingning waved his hand, and agreed, "You can go if you want, there is Father and King here to watch over you, so I guarantee you won't miss the errand."

Tang Hua let go of the big stone in his heart, stood up and respected his father, "Then it will be up to the father to take care of him."

Tang Hua didn't go to Ruan Shijie's place that day, he fell asleep after drinking, got up early the next morning, and took Jiang Pingyuan and others directly to Ruchuan County.

Yesterday Gu Tangyu gave him a thousand-mile horse, the horse is a docile old horse, today Tanghua has used it.

In addition to the two of them, this time he also brought a team of guards, a total of 25 people.

Gu Tangyu set off with him, and the two teams separated after leaving the city. Looking at his brother's back, Tanghua knew that something must have happened recently, but because of his identity, it was not easy to inquire about these things, so he could only put it down temporarily.

From Huangdu to Ruchuan County, riding a horse for one day is enough, if you are in a hurry, you can get there in half a day.

Tang Hua was so excited that he didn't stop much on the road. He even only rested for half an hour at noon.

Lei Xing wondered why he was in such a rush this time, only Jiang Pingyuan knew how he was feeling and was helping him along the way.

When Tanghua rushed from the imperial capital to Ruchuan County, the sun had not yet set. He entered Zhuangzi, and He Rui hurriedly brought Yu Yiningwei to welcome him.

He wrote a letter a few days ago saying that he would come and asked them to clean up the yard, and the yard had already been cleaned up.

Without waiting for them to salute, Tanghua waved them to get up, and hurried to the yard where he lived before, "I'm tired today and need to rest, you don't have to send dinner. Pingyuan, you can help me arrange their board and lodging, Just stay outside and don't let anyone in."

Jiang Pingyuan saw his clothes fluttering, his eyes sparkled, and he said with a smile, "My lord, you can rest assured, I'm here."

With his words, Tang Hua was completely relieved, waved his hands and went to his yard.

As the courtyard door slammed shut, the courtyard became quiet again.

Tang Huazi carefully locked the courtyard door, then ran into his room to lock the doors and windows, found the familiar door on the wall, pushed the door to go into Ruan Shijie's study, and shouted: "Brother Ruan, I'm back, where are you?"

"Cooking downstairs, you come down."

Tang Hua immediately turned around and rushed downstairs. From afar, he saw Ruan Shijie standing in the kitchen cooking, with a straight back and an apron.

The cooking pot in front of him was smoldering with oily smoke, and it looked very stylish.

Tang Hua sniffled, "It smells so good, Brother Ruan, when did you learn how to cook?"

"I knew it when I was in junior high school. My family conditions are average. When I was young, my parents didn't have time to go home, so I usually cook." Ruan Shijie answered him casually, looking back at him in a robe, he asked with a smile: "Is it hot?" ?”

Tang Hua didn't feel it at first, but when he asked, he immediately felt sweat all over his body.

"It's hot, I've been driving for a day, and my body is wet and dry." After Zhuanghua exaggeratedly said this sentence, he squeezed over to watch Ruan Shijie cook, "What kind of food?"

"Now it's spicy chicken and crab cubes. I just made a braised prawn in oil. It's next door."

Hearing the strings, Tanghua knew the elegance, stretched out his sinful claws, grabbed a braised prawn from the side dish and threw it into his mouth. After chewing, his eyes lit up, and he gave Ruan Shijie a thumbs up, "Xiang !"

Ruan Shijie patted him on the back, "There are two more dishes, you go take a shower first, and you can come down to eat after you take a shower."

Tang Hua nodded and ate another braised prawn, then turned around and jumped upstairs to take a bath.

After taking a shower, he changed into shorts and a T-shirt. He felt much more relaxed. He brushed his hair and walked downstairs with his slippers on. "Brother Ruan, why did you leave work so early today?"

"You're coming back today, so I'm going to get off work early and cook early." Ruan Shijie said: "The company has made arrangements, and I don't have to go to the company for the next three days."

While watching him cooking, Tanghua leaned against the cabinet and rubbed his hair to talk with him, "Brother Chen, have they made arrangements? When will we leave tomorrow?"

"Gather outside the university town at eight o'clock tomorrow morning, and we will go to Qingyun Mountain together." Ruan Shijie said, "In addition to the three of them, Kou Shengwei's girlfriend also wants to come, and he asked if we would mind bringing one more person."

Tang Hua didn't come over yesterday, Ruan Shijie couldn't help him to agree directly, and just said to ask again today.

Tang Hua was very happy, and responded, "Come on, what does it matter if there is one more person? It happens that there are six of us and three couples. Brother Ruan, have you replied to him? Or I'll call him now."

"Don't be in such a hurry, the dishes are ready and eat first." Ruan Shijie turned to look at him, "Wash your hands quickly and take the dishes out."

"Okay." Tang Hua put the towel over his shoulders, immediately washed his hands and served the dishes and bowls, smelling the fragrance, his stomach growled in response to the occasion.

Ruan Shijie's cooking skills were mediocre, and he couldn't help but cook this dish specially for Tang Hua.

Tang Hua picked up the bowl, thinking that this was delicious, and that was also delicious. After tasting one dish after another, the admiration on his face almost overflowed, "Brother Ruan, you are so good, you are simply a perfect male god."

"It's just home-cooked food." Ruan Shijie couldn't help laughing, and gave him a piece of crab meat, "If you like it, eat more."

Tang Hua hurriedly brought some food for him, "I like it so much! Brother Ruan, this is the best food I have ever eaten in my life!"

Ruan Shijie looked at him while smiling, "Your mouth is covered with honey today, right?"

Tang Hua casually said while holding his food, "That's right, my mouth is stained with paint."

Ruan Shijie's eyes were full of puzzlement, not knowing what charade he was playing.

Tang Hua put down his chopsticks, folded his hands into a trumpet shape, put them in front of his mouth and said, "That's why I can blow out rainbow farts today."

Ruan Shijie couldn't help laughing, he was so amusing that he couldn't even hold his chopsticks, he patted him on the shoulder, "Okay, little student Gu who is rich in rainbow farts, eat quickly, or the food will be cold."

Tanghua felt that his craftsmanship was really good, so he worked hard to eat after he finished speaking.

In order to celebrate his birthday, Ruan Shijie specially made six dishes and one soup.

Ruan Shijie has the habit of exercising. He usually eats dinner more restrainedly. He usually puts down his chopsticks when he is [-]% full. Today, he was driven by Tang Hua to eat [-]% full.

Tang Hua used his strength to show off what is called CD-ROM operation. Ruan Shijie finished several dishes, and finally only one steamed meat pie and one steamed fish remained.

Looking at the two dishes on the table, Tang Hua rubbed his stomach and pulled Ruan Shijie's sleeves, "Brother Ruan, don't clean up. I will clean up after I digest my food. I have to keep these two dishes. I will clean them up tomorrow." Cook noodles and eat."

"There's only so much left, don't need to stay."

"No, this is the dish you cooked for me, so you must keep it."

Ruan Shijie said: "Then keep this steamed meat pie, and the fish will not be kept. The fish will not be fresh tomorrow."

"What are you afraid of? It happens to be more than every year." Tang Hua insisted, looking up at him, "This is a meal to celebrate my birthday, you have to listen to me."

Ruan Shijie had no choice but to listen to him, simply cleared the table, and went upstairs to find Jianweixiaoshi tablets for him to eat.

Tang Hua looked at the digestion tablet in his palm, covered his eyes and sighed: "Forget it, I'll eat it later, I just used soup to slit my stomach, and if I take the medicine again, I'll have to vomit."

Ruan Shijie knocked on his forehead, "Well, no one can persuade you? Come on, chew this medicine and swallow it. Such a small amount won't take up space."

"Chew it directly?" Tang Hua touched the Jianweixiaoshi tablet from his palm and held it up in front of his eyes, "Can the medicine be chewed directly?"

"Yes, fruit flavor, don't worry, eat it." Ruan Shijie touched his face and went into the kitchen to wash the dishes.

Tang Hua hurriedly stopped him, "Brother Ruan, don't do the washing, let me clean it myself. Didn't you say that the cooks don't wash the dishes?"

"There are so many rules in the family." Ruan Shijie's voice came from the kitchen, "I tidy up and put the dishwasher, it doesn't take much effort. If you feel free, call your Brother Kou and invite him tomorrow Bring your girlfriend along."

Tang Hua was half lying on the sofa, reaching out to touch his mobile phone, "Then I used your mobile phone to make a call."

"Ah."

Ruan Shijie's cell phone kept Tang Hua's fingerprints, and he reached out to unlock it, and Ruan Shijie's cell phone was completely open to him.

Tanghua often played with his mobile phone, and was not impressed by his simple mobile phone interface. He only glanced at it and brought up the address book, searched for Kou Sheng's micro phone number, and dialed it.

"Hello, Shi Jie?" Kou Shengwei answered almost instantly.

"Brother Kou, it's me."

A clear voice came from Kou Shengwei's mobile phone receiver.

Kou Shengwei was a little dazed, subconsciously took away the phone and glanced at the name displayed on the screen, it was indeed Ruan Shijie who was right.

Tanghua was afraid that he would not be able to hear it, so he hurriedly added, "Gu Tanghua."

Kou Shengwei came back to his senses, "Tanghua, good evening."

"Good evening." Tang Hua went straight to the point, "Brother Kou, I want to invite you and sister-in-law to play together tomorrow, is it convenient for sister-in-law?"

"It's convenient." Kou Shengwei was very happy, "Then I'll bring him here tomorrow."

Tang Hua was also very happy, "That's settled."

After riding a horse all day, Tang Hua was very tired. When Ruan Shijie packed the kitchen and came out, his head nodded and he seemed to be falling asleep.

Seeing him like this, Ruan Shijie reached out to touch his cheek, picked him up, and walked upstairs to the bedroom.

Tang Hua rubbed against his lapel, muttered twice, and soon fell asleep again.

The next day he had to get up early to go out again, Ruan Shijie did nothing after putting him on the bed, turned off the light and hugged him to sleep.

The biological clocks of the two worked well, and Tang Hua woke up at six o'clock the next morning.

He sat on the bed with the quilt in his arms, yawned and asked Ruan Shijie, "Brother Ruan, shall we get up now?"

"Get up. I haven't packed my things yet, so I'll go and pack some clothes."

Tang Hua lifted the quilt and got out of bed, "Then I'll wash up and make breakfast, Brother Ruan, what do you want to eat? Can we just eat noodles as we said yesterday?"

"Yes, yes." Ruan Shijie looked at him with a smile, "Are you sure it can be done?"

Tang Hua raised his eyebrows, "Did you underestimate me? I have also learned how to use a gas stove."

He spoke so ambitiously, Ruan Shijie was worried after all, so he went downstairs with him after brushing his teeth.

Tang Hua was not satisfied, and squinted at him, "Didn't you say you want to pack your luggage? You go and pack it, don't worry about me."

Ruan Shijie said: "It's still early, we don't need to clean up so early, we will clean up together later, and discuss what to bring." Before he protested, Ruan Shijie said with a smile: "I haven't seen you cook yet, I Get acquainted."

Tang Hua didn't say anything now, he was excitedly picking up things from the refrigerator - noodles, tomatoes, cabbage, eggs, and the leftover meatloaf and fish from last night.

He checked the things, washed the tomatoes and cut them into small pieces, beat the eggs into egg wash, and then started to light the fire to prepare the next noodles.

Ruan Shijie noticed that he looked at the time when he started to serve the noodles, and then he lit another stove and added oil, fried shallots and garlic, and began to pour the egg liquid, which was fried into lumps before adding tomatoes.

After his tomato and eggs were fried well, he put them into the water to cook the soup, and then quickly checked the time. After seeing it for more than four minutes, he hurriedly took out the noodles and put them in pure water.

Ruan Shijie saw that although he was in a hurry, his movements were generally correct and there were no major mistakes. He guessed that he should have done his homework in private, so he breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the chair next to the cooking table to observe him cooking face to face.

Tang Hua is serious about everything he does, including cooking noodles.

His tomato and eggs were almost cooked, and he added meatloaf and yesterday's fish, then washed green vegetables, and finally added salt.

The addition of salt in his house is different from that of others. Others add salt by weighing it with a spoon, and pour the salt into the soup at once. He is different. He uses the spoon to pick up a little salt and put it into the soup. , Stir well and use another spoon to scoop up the soup to taste the saltiness.

After repeating it two or three times, he felt that it was almost done, so he put down the two spoons.

He let out a breath, which was a bit heavy, and subconsciously looked at Ruan Shijie.

Ruan Shi folded his arms and looked at him, "This method is good, when did you learn it?"

Zhuang Hua's ears were a little red, "When you were in chemistry class, didn't you teach me to do experiments like this?"

Thanks to Tang Hua's rigorous scientific spirit, the noodles he made for the first time were actually very good, and the soup was even delicious. One person had a big bowl, and he ate up all the noodles.

Tang Hua ate faster. Now he put down his chopsticks and rubbed his belly. He said with a smug smile: "It seems that I am good at cooking. Brother Ruan, we can take turns cooking in the future. When I am free, I will cook for you." Send it to the company to make others envious of your favorite bento."

Ruan Shijie cleaned up the bowls on the table after eating, then took them to the kitchen and put them in the dishwasher, turned on the dishwasher to wash the dishes, turned around and said, "That's a good idea, then I'll wait and see when I can eat your love bento."

He washed his hands, took out a tissue from the shelf next to him and wiped the water, "Shall we go up and pack things?"

Tang Hua glanced at it, it was already 55:[-], and hurriedly said: "Go, or you will be late later."

Before he came over, Ruan Shijie had already cleaned up for a round, and now he was pulling him to clean up together because he wanted to see what else he had to bring.

Tang Hua's tidying ability is average, after a brief look, he really couldn't think of anything to bring, so he simply said, "Is this enough? If there is something really missing, we'll buy it when we get there."

Ruan Shijie closed the two suitcases, carried one and handed the other to him, "Okay, then we are ready to go. Go to the bodyguards WeChat group and tell them to let them drive the car out."

Tang Hua went up to say it, and then excitedly pulled the suitcase on the caster wheels, with great pride, "Let's go, let's go play."

He Xiling and Chen Sui arrived quite early, and were waiting for them at the meeting place at 40:[-].

Kou Shengwei's couple arrived later, not past [-]:[-].

Both Ruan Shijie and He Xiling asked the bodyguards to drive, and after the three parties met, their convoy drove to Qingyun Mountain.

It rained last night, today is a good day tomorrow, the weather is not too hot outside, looking out from the car window, there are farmland and distant mountains on both sides of the road, the scenery alone is enough to make people feel comfortable.

Tang Hua lay by the car window looking at the scenery outside the car window, and couldn't help but happily said: "Brother Ruan, after we retire, shall we also buy a villa in the countryside to live in seclusion?"

He opened the car window and the sound came out.

He Xiling's car drove alongside them and shouted: "We don't need to live in seclusion here, we live in seclusion wherever we live."

Tang Hua finally explained some small dreams to Ruan Shi, and the atmosphere was completely destroyed by him. He was very upset, wrinkled his nose and yelled at him, "I just like to buy a house and live in seclusion in the countryside. What's wrong? Brother He, why are you so disappointing?" Ah? Brother Chen, you don't care about him!"

Chen Sui's laughing voice came from afar, "I can't control it."

Tanghua put your elbow on Ruan Shijie who was next to him, "Hurry up, brother Ruan and I will fight them together. They are husband and wife, and we have to fight together as husband and wife."

"Wait a minute, we are a fiancé who has passed Ming Road, since when did you say you are married?!"

Tang Hua roared, "I'll let it go."

They said a few words, Ruan Shijie patted him on the waist, "Okay, don't interfere with the driver and the others driving, go to Qingyun Mountain and talk about it."

Tang Hua still turned his face away, "Brother Ruan, please tell them in WeChat that we are also fiancés. Do you remember mine who proposed to you? We will go get the certificate when we are old enough!"

The process of their marriage proposal was very logical, there was no grand ceremony, and there was no long-winded confession, but when it was mentioned one day, Tang Hua emphasized that they should go to get the certificate when they were old.

Ruan Shijie smiled, and sure enough, he said in WeChat, "I won't play anymore. When we get to Qingyun Mountain, our two families will play against each other again."

When they traveled this time, they specially formed a small group, and all six of them were in the group.

Kou Shengwei heard them interacting here, and shouted angrily, "Did you forget us?"

Tang Hua quickly comforted him, "No, no? Brother Kou, don't talk about WeChat while driving, it's not safe."

"My Xiaomeng helped to hold the mobile phone."

Ruan Shijie came over and said, "Even if Xiaomeng is holding it, it's not safe. You should concentrate on driving and talk about it later when you get to the place. Xi Ling, A Sui, we don't want to chat anymore after the truce."

He spoke, and everyone had no choice but to stop talking and drove to Qingyun Mountain.

They booked a resort hotel halfway up the mountain, and they were the only ones in front of the hotel when the car arrived, so it seemed extraordinarily quiet.

Ruan Shijie and the others got out of the car, and the bodyguards drove to the parking lot, while Kou Shengwei's car was parked by the doorman of the hotel.

Kou Shengwei got out of the car and looked at the surrounding scenery, and said involuntarily: "This place is really nice, better than I imagined."

They drove on the road for more than three hours, and it is already past eleven o'clock.

Ruan Shijie glanced at him, "Go to the room and get settled first, and then come down for lunch."

"No problem." He Xiling pulled Chen Sui, "Just after lunch and take a nap, we can start playing after four o'clock in the afternoon."

Everyone was a little tired all the way, and the lunch was not too grand.

After having a lunch with local specialties, everyone went back to their rooms to get ready to rest.

They rented out the entire hotel, and the rooms of each group had a good view. Tang Hua and the others lived in the house on the top floor to the left. The huge floor-to-ceiling windows overlooked the mountains, and above that was the blue sky and white clouds.

Tang Hua lay on the deck chair on the balcony, "This place is really comfortable."

Ruan Shijie put their clothes in the closet, and turned to talk to him when he heard this, "If you like, we can spare time to travel once or twice a year."

Tang Hua: "I should be fine here. If you can spare some time, if it doesn't affect your daily work, and if you don't feel strenuous, we can come out to play once or twice a year."

"Student Zhang Hua, you underestimate your man too much." Ruan Shijie came over and tapped him on the forehead, "Don't worry, I have time to spare. It's windy down here, don't just sit outside all the time, come in quickly Take a rest and go to the hot spring together after four o'clock."

Tanghua thought of Kou Shengwei's girlfriend Xiaomeng, and quickly asked, "Brother Ruan, how can we take a hot spring with five men and one woman later?"

"Let Kou Shengwei and the others go to the couple's hot spring, and Chen Sui and the others decide whether to act together with us or go to the couple's hot spring by themselves." Ruan Shijie took his neck and led him into the house, "Don't worry, hurry up Sleep, there are still activities at night, you may have to go to bed early."

"What else is going on at night, why don't I know?"

"An event specially arranged for you." Ruan Shijie pressed the man into his arms, "Don't ask any more questions, go to bed quickly."

Tang Hua couldn't resist, so he had to hug his waist, and was blindfolded by him, ready to fall asleep.

Ruan Shijie closed the curtains with the iPad, turned off the lights, lowered the temperature of the air conditioner, and quickly fell asleep with the little prince in his arms.

After sleeping until four o'clock in the afternoon, He Xiling and Chen Sui knocked on their door outside.

"It's four o'clock, get up quickly, don't sleep, let's go to the hot spring."

Tang Hua had just woken up, and his mind was still a little dazed, so he asked Ruan Shijie, "Brother Ruan, shall we go now?"

"If you haven't woken up yet, just wait a little longer."

Tang Hua thought for a while and decided that it would be more cost-effective to get up and soak in the hot springs. He lifted the quilt and rubbed his head, "I'm awake, let's go to the hot springs."

"Okay, put on your swimming trunks first."

Ruan Shijie took out two pairs of black couple swimming trunks from the closet, while Tang Hua held the small piece of fabric and moved his toes uneasily, "Change it now, we will wear it all over the body later. Is the fabric out?"

"You can put another bath towel on the outside." Ruan Shijie comforted him, "Except for the staff, there are only a few of us in the whole hotel, don't worry."

Tang Hua was persuaded, and began to take off his T-shirt and slacks.

Ruan Shijie was caught off guard and saw a room full of spring light.
