Lu Xingyue shook his head: "One more thing."
Shen Lansui was stunned: "What else is there?"
Guan Chun and others didn't understand. They looked at each other and it was Shan Xia who reacted first. She smiled and said: "I wish Madam long life, good health and all the best."
Lu Xingyue nodded: "Reward——"
Several people immediately thanked him happily.
After Guan Chun stood up, he took the first step forward and opened the heavy curtain, and the warm fragrance immediately wafted out.
Lu Xingyue took Shen Lansui and walked in.
The moment he crossed the threshold, Shen Lansui was in a trance for a moment. The bedroom in front of him was familiar yet unfamiliar.
The entire layout is no different from the master bedroom in Pinglan Courtyard, but some details have been changed to make it feel more like home.
The middle is a place for entertaining guests or eating. There are not many furnishings. A landscape painting hangs opposite the door, symmetrical floor-to-ceiling vases are placed on the left and right, and the ground is covered with thick mats.
On the left is the inner room, the bedroom, which is separated from the outside by an eight-panel screen. There is a charcoal basin in the bedroom, a floor-standing lamp stand in the corner, a large wardrobe against the wall, and then a large bed, covered with a thick mattress that looks very soft at first glance, with light pink bed curtains hanging on both sides. .
On the right is the outer room, which is also a place for leisure and entertainment. There is a couch by the window. There is a low table and soft cushions on the couch. You can lie down and sit on it, read and write. In front of the couch is a round table with There were exquisite porcelain lamps, two chairs placed against the wall, and further inside was a small door connected to the bathroom.
The ornaments are basically in the style Shen Lansui likes, especially the soft pillows on the couch, which look like pillows that Shen Lansui likes. As soon as Shen Lansui came in, she nestled on the couch, hugging each other and sighing comfortably. , "So soft."
Lu Xingyue walked up to her, opened the drawer of the cabinet and said, "We have pens, ink, paper and inkstones. If you want to draw pictures, just get them from here."
Shen Lansui glanced at it, and there was a hand stove in her hand, which was as warm as her heart was now.
She stood up holding the soft pillow and the stove, looked at Lu Xingyue, and asked seriously: "Sanlang, how long have you been preparing these things?"
Lu Xingyue took her hand, squeezed her soft palm, lowered his eyes and said, "It didn't take long."
"Not long is how long?"
Shen Lansui refused this perfunctory answer.
Lu Xingyue thought for a while and said, "After knowing that Lu Mingchao likes you."
Shen Lansui: "???"
What was the reason she thought it would be, but she didn't expect it to be this?
She was silent for a moment, and suddenly realized something. She shook the hands they held together and asked, "Lu Yuanzhi, look at me."
Lu Xingyue raised his eyes in confusion, but saw her tilting her head and laughing softly, "Are you jealous?"
Lu Xingyue: "..."
His jaw tightened, he pursed his lips, and after a moment he whispered: "No."
"Is it true?" Shen Lansui shook his head, "I don't believe it."
Lu Xingyue: "..."
Fortunately, Liu Yan came in and interrupted the conversation between the two.
"Master Marquis, madam, the noodles are ready, do you want to cook now?"
Shen Lansui was startled, "What kind of noodles?"
"Longevity noodles." Lu Xingyue nodded to Liuyan, "Now, let the kitchen prepare some dishes to go with wine and warm up two pots of fruit wine."
"yes."
Liuyan leans out.
Shen Lansui was confused: "You still want to eat?"
Lu Xingyue raised his eyebrows: "Have you eaten enough in the Duke's Mansion?"
Shen Lansui: "...No."
Seeing that everyone's appetite has been greatly reduced, how can they be full? Just eat something to fill your stomach.
Moreover, there was such a fuss just now. It took a lot of effort and emotions, and almost everything I had eaten before was digested.
Soon the longevity noodles and vegetables were brought up. Guanchun put the wine bottle down and called: "Master Marquis, madam, it's time to eat."
Lu Xingyue said, "Well, please step aside. You don't need to wait here."
"yes."
Guan Chun and others went out and closed the door. Only Lu Xingyue and Shen Lansui were left in the house.
"I left in a hurry this morning and we had to have dinner together at noon, so I didn't prepare longevity noodles for you. Isn't it too late to make up for it now?"
Shen Lansui looked at the steaming bowl of green and white noodles and suddenly became quiet.
She didn't celebrate her birthday in her last life because no one remembered when she was born. In the last life, she was too busy running around and no one had time to celebrate her birthday properly, so everyone didn't care. Just because she didn't care didn't mean she didn't want it.
It is actually a very happy thing for someone to take your birthday to heart and celebrate it for you with all their heart.
"Don't look at it. You have to pick up the noodles yourself. It won't fly into your mouth. It won't taste good after a while when it gets cold."
Lu Xingyue handed her a pair of chopsticks, "Try it?"
The melancholy that had just brewed in Shen Lansui suddenly dissipated.
She smiled helplessly, took the chopsticks and picked out some noodles to eat. It was moderately salty and very fresh, and a lot of effort must have been put into the soup.
It was hard to talk while eating, so Shen Lan gave Lu Xingyue a thumbs up.
Seeing that she liked her more, Lu Xing smiled happily, picked up the wine bottle and poured wine for the two of them.
Shen Lansui took a few bites, then looked at the dishes on the table and asked Lu Xingyue, "Do you want to eat?"
"Can't we share the longevity noodles?"
"Why is it bad?" Shen Lansui said with a smile: "What will you do if I live a long life alone? I will share the noodles with you now and we will live a long life together, isn't it good? Or do you think you dislike me?"
"How could it be?" Lu Xingyue laughed, took her bowl and ate the remaining noodles.
Shen Lansui picked up the wine glass and said warmly: "With this toast, we finally have our own home. No matter what happened in the past, our road will become smoother and wider in the future."
"Okay." Lu Xingyue raised his glasses and clinked them together, with light liquid sloshing in the glasses.
The two drank this cup together.
"Second cup, toast to freedom!" Shen Lansui poured it for both of them, with a faint blush on his face, "Celebrate that we are finally free from the shadow of the eldest lady."
Lu Xingyue remained silent and just listened to what she said.
"This third cup -" Shen Lansui paused, then laughed himself.
"I'll give you one last drink."
She stood up, holding the wine glass, her eyes filled with stars.
Lu Xingyue was stunned for a moment and then stood up.
Shen Lansui paused, seeming a little embarrassed, but still insisted: "We didn't drink Hexin wine before the wedding. It's not too late to make up for it now."
She stretched out her arms and looked at Lu Xingyue expectantly.
Lu Xingyue's heart skipped a beat and his Adam's apple rolled, "It's not too late."
His hand holding the wine glass passed through Shen Lansui's arm and came back. Because of their posture, the two leaned slightly, and the distance suddenly became much closer.
So close that the two of them could see themselves in each other's eyes.
There is no need to say anything at this moment, the affection has already slipped out of his eyes.
The two looked at each other and drank the glass of wine together.
The fruit wine was not strong, but it had enough stamina. Shen Lansui felt that her face was extremely hot and she seemed a little drunk.
If you're drunk, you can do anything, right?
Thinking like this, she did not get up immediately, but looked at Lu Xingyue in this posture for a while, and suddenly said: "Sanlang."
Lu Xingyue looked at her intently: "Yes."
Shen Lansui smiled, leaned forward without warning, and kissed Lu Xingyue on the lips.
"Thank you."
