Poor children

Chapter 73 Beautiful scenery, delicious food, good tea and piano
一
"Are you hungry?" Tian Xing asked, "Let me make some food for you."

"Can you do it?" In Pao'er's impression, it seems that no man she knows is willing to step into the kitchen, let alone cook.
Tian Xing patted her arm and pushed open the back door of the kitchen towards the vegetable garden, ready to pick some fresh vegetables. "What vegetables do you like to eat?"

"I'm not picky about food, I'll eat anything," Pao'er said. "Do you need me to do anything?" Pao'er looked at him walking into the vegetable garden and thought he was just joking.
"No, no need," Tian Xing said to her while searching for suitable ripe vegetables on the ridge, "You go and sit in the pavilion, look at the fish and enjoy the flowers. I will finish it in a while, and we will be in the pavilion." Eat it”

"Let me do it." The poor boy was a little worried
"Go quickly, are you afraid that my cooking will be unpalatable?"

The poor boy had no choice but to listen to him and sit in the yard.
This yard, this house, everything here was as familiar as if she had been here before. Even the color of the fish in the pond was the same as in her dream. After feeding the fish some food, Paoer raised his head. Looking towards the tea room, I saw a guqin standing against the wall next to the door of the tea room. It must have been there for some time, and there was a lot of dust on it. The pauper walked back out of the pavilion and saw Tian Xing in the kitchen. She was busy in the tea room, so she turned around and entered the tea room and came to the piano. She stroked the piano and took a closer look. Next to the piano was a piano table that was also covered in dust. The poor man found a clean rag and put it in the pool. Wet it, and twist it hard until it is dry. Gently wipe the piano over and over again until the piano and the table return to their original color.

Pao'er placed the piano table next to the door and faced the opposite wall. On the left hand side were fishes swimming and lotus flowers swaying. Pao'er burned a burner of incense on the low table in front of her right. She was intoxicated by the fragrance of this beautiful scenery. After sitting behind the piano and playing the song "Autumn Moon in Han Palace", I found that I had a close friend. Tianxing was standing in front of the door watching her play the piano.

"Haiyue Qinghui 1" Pao'er stroked the piano as if it were his own child, "It's a pity that you put such a good piano here to catch the ashes."

"I don't know much about piano, but this piano was given to me by a very important friend, so I placed it here," Tian Xing said.

"Is it okay if you don't go and watch your stove? Be careful of the vegetables getting stuck in the pot." The poor boy was still looking at the piano infatuatedly.

Tian Xing smiled and turned back to the kitchen.

After a while, Tian Xing came to the teahouse with a plate in his hand and asked Pao'er to go out to eat. Pao'er then reluctantly left the sea and moonlight, stood up and went to the pavilion. There were four side dishes on the stone table in the pavilion. Bright color and overflowing fragrance
"Gentleman, I have discovered from far away that you can actually make such a delightful dish. I am really impressed by you."

"Food is the sky, and only the kitchen is the most important place. Some people dislike it, but love food at the same time. I can't justify it. I think this kitchen is the most suitable place for people to practice." Tian Xing handed the chopsticks to Poor children
The two of them sat down together, and Pao'er picked up a dish and put it into his mouth. Because it was a freshly picked dish, although it was just the most common cooking method, it had an indescribable delicious taste. Pao'er ate it one bite after another. While eating, I don't care to talk to Tianxing
"Is it delicious?" Tian Xing asked
After asking, Pao'er replied, "It's delicious, really, really delicious."

"you like it"

The two of them didn't talk much. Xu didn't know what to say, and Xu was too focused on the food.
After dinner, Pao'er was about to clear away the dishes, but was stopped by Tian Xing.

"I'll take care of it"

"How can that be okay? It's you who cooks the food. How can I ask you to clean up the dishes? It's like I'm bullying you." The poor man arrived.
"I'm willing to be bullied by you" Tian Xing said easily, and Pao'er Dongyin blushed again with these words.
"I can't do nothing, can I?"

"You go over there to get a pot of water from the spring and boil it in the tea room. I'll clean it up later. Let's drink tea together. Can you play me a piece of music?"

The poor girl nodded and went to the tea room to get the copper kettle. When she came back with water, she saw an old man dressed as a farmer entering the courtyard. The poor girl hurried over to say hello, but the old man just smiled at her and said nothing.

"He is mute." Just when the poor boy didn't know what to do, Tian Xing happened to come out. "He has not been able to speak since he was a child, but he can hear. He lives in the village outside the forest. Everyone calls him Qiao Bo. I Ask him to help me take care of the vegetable garden and the flowers and plants in the yard, he will come every one or two days" "Oh, Job" the poor boy called him

The old man nodded kindly, he looks very kind and honest, he is the kind of person who is easy to like
"Isn't it heavy for you to carry the copper pot all the time? Why don't you come over to boil water? I want to drink tea." Tian Xing called her

Tianxing and Pao'er sat at the table. The water on the charcoal stove was boiling. Tianxing took out the tea and put it into a purple clay pot to wash and brew. He poured it into the Gongdao cup and divided it into Pao'er's cup. Picking up the small tea cup and savoring it, "This tea is sweet and delicious, it's really good."

Putting down the small cup, Pao'er walked into the kitchen and took a big bowl. "Pour the rest into this bowl." Tian Xing did as she asked, but the rest didn't even cover the bottom of the bowl. Pao'er I asked him to brew the pot again before he could barely pour out more than half of the bowl.

"What are you doing? Don't you think it's not fun to drink from a small cup?"

"Uncle Qiao is so tired outside, I'll give it to him to drink." After saying this, the poor boy stood up, took the bowl from the back door to the vegetable field, and gave the tea in his hand to Uncle Qiao. Uncle Qiao was very happy to see him drinking tea. When Pao'er spoke to him, he nodded and shook his head and made some gestures in response. The two of them actually chatted very congenially. Tian Xing stood at the door with a cup in hand and looked at them, thinking that Pao'er would come back after delivering tea, but Unexpectedly, the two chatted very well. Later, Pao'er simply rolled up his sleeves and started tending vegetables with Qiao Bo. When it was approaching dusk, Qiao Bo was about to leave, and then Pao'er remembered that he had left Tian Xing aside to dry.

"I felt friendly to Qiao Bo as soon as I saw him. While we were chatting, I even started to help him with things." Pao'er sat down at the low table again. The tea in her cup was already cold. Tian Xing poured out the cold tea. Give her another cup of hot drink

"What does it matter? As long as you feel happy," Tian Xingdao
"I am indeed very happy today." The poor boy picked up the cup and drank the tea in one gulp.
"You are quite generous. Drinking tea is like drinking wine."

"You can make fun of me, but I won't become a lady just because you make fun of me." The poor boy held his chin and admired the small courtyard under the sunset. The crimson sky also covered the small courtyard with a charming veil.
The soft light of the setting sun shines on the poor girl's face through the doors and windows, making her extraordinarily dazzling and extraordinarily peaceful.
"It's getting dark, let's go back. It doesn't matter when I go back. It's just that you didn't say hello when you came out. I'm afraid it will make people worried if you go back too late." Tian Xing said, looking at her beautiful face.

"Oh" the poor should arrive

The two of them walked out of the courtyard, got on their horses and headed out into the woods. Tian Xing held the reins with both hands and still held Pao'er in his arms. Pao'er didn't speak. Listening to his even breathing along the way, he seemed to have something in his heart. She was just a little deer. No matter how she forced herself to calm down, she could not become calm again. The fast heartbeat made it difficult for her to breathe, so she began to think wildly in her heart, wondering if this man had poisoned her tea. Poison, otherwise why would she look like this now? She even felt that she might go into shock and die at any time.
The way back seems to be going very fast, and the poor boy has not yet figured out his thoughts, but he has already arrived at the gate of Taixu Daoyuan
"It's here," Tian Xing lowered his head and whispered in her ear
"Huh? Oh!" Pao'er didn't expect to arrive so quickly. "I, I'm going back." Pao'er wanted to dismount but was stopped by Tian Xing.

"At the end of the day, are you not even willing to say thank you to me?"

"Me! Well, thanks!"

Tian Xing helped the pauper off the horse and watched her walk towards the temple. He suddenly remembered something and shouted to her back, "My name is Tian Xing. Although you didn't ask, I still want you to know."

Pao'er stopped and turned his back to him, "My name is Pao'er!"

"Where shall we go for dinner another day?" Tian Xing asked her back

"Okay, okay!" After saying this, Paoer quickly walked into the temple.
