But Fang Jinshi had already seen it. He walked into the room and said with a smile: "You stole something in my house, and I caught you now." He said this with a smile, obviously While they were joking, Qiao Ling'er raised her eyes to look at him, then lowered her head and said in a very small voice: "No no." As she spoke, her face quickly turned red, and even her ears were embarrassed. It turned red, as if she had really been caught stealing food.
When Fang Jinshi saw Qiao Ling'er's expression, he found it amusing and felt that she was really different from the girls he had known before. She really couldn't bear the teasing and joking, and she was extremely shy.
Fang Jinshi sat down opposite her and said, "I was just joking. Don't take it seriously. You saved my life twice and I didn't even say thank you. It doesn't matter if I eat something."
Qiao Ling'er lowered her head and said nothing, but the blush on her face gradually faded. Fang Jinshi turned sideways and looked at her feet. The golden cotton was fixed with wood chips and wrapped with cloth strips. He straightened up and sat down and said: "Your How are your feet, do they still hurt?¡±
Qiao Ling'er shook her head and then said: "It doesn't hurt anymore."
Fang Jinshi said: "Didn't I ask someone to take care of you? Why didn't I see anyone?"
Qiao Ling'er whispered: "That Aunt LiuI can walkjustshe has to take care ofmy son." This Aunt Liu is the cook. She struggled to finish her words. , Fang Jinshi hummed, and Qiao Ling'er said: "Youdon'tdon't" She said "Don't say goodbye for a long time and couldn't say the following words. Fang Jinshi understood what she was going to say, so he took over and said: "Don't worry. No, I won't blame Aunt Liu. "
But Qiao Ling'er gave him such a steal, and her inferiority complex came back. She lowered her head and said nothing. Fang Jinshi said: "Aunt Liu is busy and has to look after her son. I will find someone to take care of you tomorrow. She will cook and cook medicine for you, and you can eat whatever you want, so you can get better faster."
Qiao Ling'er said: "Noit's no trouble."
Fang Jinshi lowered his head and looked under the table and said, "You are eating dinner now. How is that okay? Let me see if it is already cold" As he spoke, he bent down and took out the cage Qiao Ling'er had hidden under the table. Put it on the table, open the lid of the cage, and see seven or eight oil-filled cooking cakes inside.
These oil-filled cooking cakes are extremely beautiful, with even and neat folds. They look crystal clear, and there is a little green onion stuck to the ears. The cooking cakes were originally called steamed cakes because the name of Song Renzong Zhao Zhen was taboo. It is called cooking cake in Chinese, and later it was also called as such among the people. The oil-filled cooking cake is not filled with oil, but a very finely chopped fat filling. If the skin is too thin, it will look like it has been filled with oil.
When Fang Jinshi saw such a beautiful oil-filled cooking cake, he couldn't help but pinch it with his hand and said, "Aunt Liu made this?"
Qiao Ling'er said with embarrassment, "Yes I did it."
Fang Jinshi said: "You can't do this even if you can't walk."
Qiao Ling'er said: "You don't have to walk to do this." It was difficult for her to say a complete sentence smoothly, and Fang Jinshi said: "I'll take one, okay?"
Qiao Ling'er smiled and nodded, and Fang Jinshi took one and put it in his mouth. The oil-filled cooking cake was still hot, and it felt smooth and tender in his mouth. By accident, the oil inside flowed out onto his sleeves. , Fang Jinshi greatly praised: "It's delicious, it's really delicious."
When Qiao Ling'er received his praise, she lowered her head and smiled slightly, a little shy and a little happy.
Fang Jinshi swallowed this small cooking cake in one gulp, and praised: "It's really delicious. If it can be fried, it would be even more perfect." For Fang Jinshi, this cooking cake is not that delicious, after all, it is It's just a cooking cake, but this oil-filled cooking cake makes Fang Jinshi feel that the taste is closest to Jiangnan Pan-fried Buns. Being able to taste the long-lost taste is the most important thing.
Qiao Ling'er raised her head and said, "Sheep pancake?" She had never heard of this word before. Fang Jinshi said, "When your foot injury heals, I'll teach you how to make pancake pancake."
Qiao Ling'er smiled and lowered her head. Fang Jinshi didn't know why she suddenly laughed again. He felt a little strange and it was hard to ask her, so he pushed the basket in front of her and said, "You'd better eat it while it's hot. Eat it when it's cold." It doesn¡¯t taste good.¡±
Qiao Ling'er said: "You thinkit tastes good, I'll give it to you."
Fang Jinshi smiled and said, "If I want to eat, you won't have it. You haven't had dinner yet, so you did."
Qiao Ling'er said: "I'm not hungry, you eat."
Fang Jinshi said: "Don't push a few cakes around. There are seven more here. Three of me and four of you. Let's eat together."
After he finished speaking, he took one, and Qiao Ling'er also went to get one with a small mouth to eat. The oil-filled cooking cake was very small, and Fang Jinshi finished it in just three times. Qiao Ling'erAfter eating one, Fang Jinshi said: "You are eating too slowly, taking big bites without anyone watching."
Qiao Ling'er smiled, pushed the basket a little further and said, "You can eat one more."
Fang Jinshi waved his hands and said, "I won't eat anymore. I'm already full You seem to be speechless." He suddenly discovered that Qiao Ling'er's recent sentences were very fluent, even though the sentences were not long.
"Is it is it?" Qiao Ling'er said. She felt nervous and started to stutter over the two short words.
Fang Jinshi said: "Follow me, if you don't want to eat, you are already full."
After a while, Qiao Ling'er finally said: "Nodon't eateateat" She became more and more nervous, and she couldn't say such a simple sentence at all. Fang Jinshi asked her After retelling it three times, I stammered and finished it completely, stuttering even more than before.
Fang Jinshi scratched his head and could only give up temporarily. Seeing how late it was, Fang Jinshi stood up and said, "It's very late. I have to go back. Can I help you lie down?"
Qiao Ling'er hurriedly shook her head and said: "No no need, I I" Fang Jinshi knew that she was saying that he could do it, so he said: "Okay, then I'll go back. There's something going on at night." Feng, close the doors and windows." He turned around, closed the door for her, and walked along the corridor to go back. After taking a few steps, Qiao Ling'er stood at the small window and shouted: "Hey"
Fang Jinshi looked back at her. Qiao Ling'er waved to him, signaling for him to turn back. Fang Jinshi came back confused and said, "Do you want me to help you?"
Qiao Ling'er shook her head, reached out and took something from her waist, put it gently on the table and said, "What's yours, I'll give it back to you."
This is a small longevity lock. There are four small characters "long life" cast on the lock. It looks like a very ordinary longevity lock for children. When Fang Jinshi saw it, he took it in his hand happily. He wiped it with his sleeve a few times and said, "Why is this here with you? It was so hard for me to find it. It would be a disaster if I couldn't find it. I can't even remember where it was lost."
"Beside the Sishui River, it's in your clothes," Qiao Ling'er said. She limped and walked to the bed, holding on to the wall. She took out a blue cloth bundle, opened it, and took out a set of clothes from it and placed it on the table.
These clothes were worn by Fang Jinshi when he first came to the south of the Yangtze River and crossed the Surabaya River. On that broken stone beach, in that rainy shabby village courtyard, Yun Nuer committed suicide, and Fang Jinshi wore this. Yun Nuer's blood was still on the clothes. Fang Jinshi took a good bath in the Sishui River and left the clothes by the river. At this time, it had been washed clean by Qiao Ling'er. Clean it, fold it neatly and put it on the table.
This longevity lock was given to Fang Jinshi by the one-handed old nun from Chengyun Temple outside Bianliang City, asking him to find an opportunity to give it to Gao Chong. When Fang Jinshi came to Jiangnan, he found that the longevity lock was missing, so he rummaged through the box and brought it from Bianliang. He searched for all the things he came over but couldn't find them. Although he clearly remembered to bring them over, he was still lucky that he had left them at Bianliang's house. He also thought that he would look for them when he went back next time. If he really couldn't find them, I was going to find a craftsman to recast it, but I didn't expect it to be lost and found again.
Fang Jinshi looked at the clothes on the table, then looked at the longevity lock in his hand and said, "Thank you so much. You saved me again. I lost this. I really don't know what to do."
Qiao Ling'er said: "II didn't return it to you in time."
Fang Jinshi said: "It's not too late now. By the way, you suddenly came to Pingjiang Mansion just to give me this."
Qiao Ling'er was not good at lying and covering up, so she nodded silently. She looked at Fang Jinshi from a distance several times on the street or elsewhere, but she didn't have the courage to go up and talk to him. But fortunately, she found out what had happened before. The person who wanted to kill Fang Jinshi appeared nearby again, so he followed Xueli like this.
Fang Jinshi said: "Put these clothes here first. That's it. You can rest. I'm going back." He put away the longevity lock and turned to leave. Qiao Ling'er said: "Ihave one too."
She dug out her bag and took out a longevity lock that was exactly the same and put it on the table. The only difference was that the words "wealth and peace" were cast on the lock. Long life and wealth and peace were the common people's expectations for the lifetime of a child. With the best hope and wish, Fang Jinshi put her longevity lock together with the one in his hand. This is a pair.
Fang Jinshi said: "This is really a coincidence. I wonder if it was made by a craftsman."
" Qiao Ling'er didn't say anything. She took out a very small iron bar from the baggage, poked it into the keyhole, and opened both longevity locks without any trouble.
Longevity locks are generally physical locks, just a decoration, but these twoThe life lock was so exquisitely made that there was even a key to open it, and both locks were opened by the same key at the same time. Fang Jinshi couldn't help but be stunned. Qiao Ling'er said: "My father said said said this was left by my mother. I'mmy only thing."
