The room was burning with Fragrant Incense Pill, and the fragrant cloud slowly rose up, causing Jin Xiaolou's face to turn red.
She stood by the bed, slightly lowering her head, and looked into Gao Lang's eyes.
Her pair of clear eyes were like the autumn stream and the azure skies above it, causing her to unconsciously plant a rabbit in her heart.
"Gao Lang, do you know that if I were to taste it …" Jin Xiaolou's eyelashes trembled non-stop, "It's just the two of us touching our mouths, that's called kissing."
Gao Lang's clear eyes momentarily blanked, as if a small stone had disturbed a pool of clear water.
He had a handsome face, but he had an air of elegance that made people unable to look away when they saw him.
"I know." Gao Lang raised his eyebrows and nodded, "Last time, didn't we kiss before? My wife is shy, it's me who kissed you! "
Jin Xiaolou shook her head: "That's not it, that's just an act, an act for others to see."
Jin Xiaolou took a step forward and sat on the bed. She could just barely smell the scent on Jin Xiaolou's body.
It was not a special fragrance. In the room filled with the heavy fragrance of water, it was as light as melted snow.
If it was snow, it would also be the clump on the tip of Meryl's sharp end.
"The real kiss is for you to like me. I like you, not for others to see, only … Because I like it. " Jin Xiaolou lowered her head, her lips only an inch away from Gao Lang's forehead.
When she spoke, her hot air pressed against Gao Lang's cold skin.
Gao Lang tilted his head up, and looked at Jin Xiaolou with her grave and stern eyes: "Not for my wife, not for me. My wife is acting, but I am not. "
Jin Xiaolou felt dizzy and blurted out, "Then, do you like me?"
Gao Lang laughed brightly, raising his chin up, his soft yet ice-cold lips just barely touching Jin Xiaolou's warm lips.
It was a long, thick kiss.
After Gao Lang gently tasted it, it was Jin Xiaolou's clumsy response.
Gao Lang became excited. His uncontrollable impulse surged up like a sea of clouds, sweeping away the boundless mountains and rivers in the world. In the end, it accumulated into rain, and he only wanted to land on her shoulders.
He would have liked to rub the thin man in front of him into his own blood, but he could not.
At the very least, he could not use the identity of Gao Lang, this crazy fool, that he did not know anything.
Gao Lang immediately let go of Jin Xiaolou. Looking at her pink and tender face, he softly replied, "I like it."
Jin Xiaolou almost forgot to breathe as her mind went blank.
After being released by Gao Lang, he suddenly realized that his mouth was sweet, as if he had eaten osmanthus candy. He asked with suspicion, "Why is it so sweet?"
Gao Lang laughed: "Didn't I say it before, my mouth was smeared with honey."
With that, Gao Lang stood up and left Jin Xiaolou's room.
Jin Xiaolou even forgot to change her clothes as she laid on the bed with her head covered.
On the second day, with a pair of large black eye circles, Jin Xiaolou did not sleep for the entire night.
For some reason, his mind kept turning over and over to that kiss from last night. In the dark night, he was staring with a pair of round eyes. One moment in a daze, the next in a smile.
When dawn arrived, he closed his eyes and rested for a while.
At the Mountain Note gate, the stage for eating the hamburger competition had already been set up. Kuang Ruyue struck the gong and drummed her drum, attracting many people who came to and fro to stop and watch.
When they found out the contents of the competition, the people who had signed up for the competition all lined up in front of the autumn moon wine house.
There was no need to pay the registration fee. Who didn't want to participate in a free and easy competition?
Tong Song looked at the long line of customers at the entrance of his shop, their faces darker than the bottom of a pot. The customers who were originally eating their morning tea at the autumn moon wine house all went out to ask for the reason when they saw the bustling scene outside.
Now, there was not even a single customer left at the table in Autumn Moon.
Only a few employees who had nothing to do leaned to the side and peeked their heads out, wishing that they could go participate in the Mountain Note competition.
Da Chun jumped out with a ferocious expression: "Let's go, let's go, queue up a bit further away, don't block our way to do business."
Tong Song heard the noise coming from the crowd and could not help but ask: "A membership card? Giving away money for free? Very good, very good, Mountain Note is trying to force us, Autumn Moon, onto a path of death! "
Da Chun went over, and leaned outside the account table: "Shopkeeper, do we still want to fight with them to send us food?"
Tong Song's eyes were filled with hatred, as he slowly looked into the distance: "They have a lot of tricks up their sleeves, if they were to gift us free silver, they might not even be able to make it to us."
"Then what should we do?" Da Chun was anxious.
Tong Song turned the jade thumb ring on his finger: "Go and find out where the cooks in their Mountain Note bought them from."
Da Chun was doubtful, but he still nodded.
"If you understand what I mean, you can nod!" Tong Song picked up the feather duster beside him and tapped Da Chun.
Da Chun scratched his head and smiled shyly: "I don't understand. Shopkeeper, do you want to explain it to me in detail?"
Tong Song sighed, waved his hand, and obediently stuck his ear onto it.
As for the Mountain Note, the competition was already full, Kuang Ruyue was about to begin, while Gui Qi and Zhou Shuli were registering their membership cards in front of the accounting table.
Seeing that, Jin Xiaolou wanted to go to the kitchen to make some new snacks. Three days ago, Madame Ye sent someone to bring a jar of milk for him.
Now, feeling the cold in winter, I might as well make fried yogurt. The inside is ice-cold, and the outside is warm and crisp. The food is still fresh.
She took out the yogurt she had brewed and poured it into a small square mold. Then, she planned to carry it to the well in the backyard.
In this weather, the water in the well was bone-chilling, and the yogurt in the basket, hanging in the mold, would be about the same effect as the refrigerator, and would be ready in a moment.
When he opened the curtain to the backyard, the first thing he saw was the door to the chamber on the left. A maid was standing there, sneakily doing something.
At this time, all the employees of the Mountain Note were busy outside, there were so many things that everyone wanted to grow four hands. Only Gao Lang was in the backyard leading the Lin'er.
The maid had her back to him, making her look even more suspicious.
Jin Xiaolou slowed down her footsteps and lightly leaned over.
She was holding a stack of small wooden tablets and was carefully counting them.
This wooden plate was made by Zhou Shuli yesterday, and had all the numbers written on it.
Jin Xiaolou frowned, she suddenly patted on the servant's shoulder, scaring Little Maid out of her wits, and her wooden plate scattered all over the ground.
Seeing it was Jin Xiaolou, the servant immediately knelt down, but before she could kneel on the ground, she was pulled up by Jin Xiaolou: "Ru Yi, why aren't you going to the front to help, what are you doing here with the plaque?"
The servant continued to stutter, and after a long while, she finally said uncertainly: "Boss Jin, this is … "It's my brother. After hearing that we want to get a membership card and that there are a lot of membership cards, he told me to secretly steal some for him. After Young Master Zhou and the others finish sending it, my brother would sell it at a high price."
Jin Xiaolou laughed: "Your brother really knows how to do business, with the free membership card, if you make him sell it, he can even earn a lot. However, our cards are all registered by Zhou Shuli, if you sell the cards and his name is not on our file, there will be no end to it. "
Ru Yi lowered her head and slowly said, "I …" I also know how to read. I had wanted to quietly add the words into the book after everyone had gone to sleep tonight. "
"I've thought about the question of the handwriting, but there must be a lot of words in the book. I'll copy them out according to the same pattern."
Jin Xiaolou nodded his head: "You're smart, take these few tags, and I'll give them to you."
"Really?" Ru Yi's eyes lit up with joy.
"However, from today onwards, you don't have to come to our Mountain Note to work."
As soon as Jin Xiaolou finished speaking, Ru Yi's face turned deathly white. After a long while, she bowed slightly, saluting Jin Xiaolou, "Thank you for your forgiveness, shopkeeper."
This could be a small matter. If it were a big matter, he could ask for an audience with an official.
But Jin Xiaolou had only chased her away, and even gave her the plate she had stolen.
He was satisfied with what he had.
After Ru Yi packed up her things and left, Jin Xiaolou placed the basket back into the well. Through the window, he saw Lin'er lying on Gao Lang's stomach, and the two were fast asleep.
He smiled and left the backyard.
When the yoghurt was almost frozen, Jin Xiaolou scattered the eggs and poured out the yoghurt from the mold, condensing it into a ball. Although it was not a ball of ice, it still had a little shape.
After the yoghurt was wrapped in bundles, he started a fire and filled the pot with oil.
After a while, the yoghurt was fried out, it was fragrant and crisp. Jin Xiaolou took a plate of yoghurt and went to the shop, giving the customers a taste of yoghurt for free, then took the rest to the backyard.
Jin Xiaolou placed the plate on the table, and reached out to grab Lin'er. Just as Lin'er left Gao Lang's stomach, Gao Lang woke up.
Jin Xiaolou pinched the soft dough like Lin'er and said to Gao Lang: "Here, I made you something delicious."
Gao Lang extended two long fingers and picked up a piece of fried yogurt, putting it into his mouth.
Lin'er was awoken by Jin Xiaolou, but he did not cry, and only kept on laughing with his black eyes opened.
Jin Xiaolou kissed Lin'er's face, then suddenly said to Gao Lang: "The next day will be the first winter. At that time, I'll give you guys dumplings to eat.
Winter... The fried yogurt in his mouth was crushed, revealing a cool, sour, sweet taste.
Gao Lang paused for a moment, then smiled and nodded: "Okay."
