Reborn Poison Rose

Chapter 35
Zhanyou didn't understand why Yuwen Rose jumped up excitedly when she saw Sweet Potato.He didn't understand why such an ordinary thing could become a treasure in her eyes. "Isn't this a sweet potato? What do you want it for?"

"Roasted sweet potatoes." When she was young, she took her younger sister Ling Shu to the neighbor's field and secretly dug two sweet potatoes, and then baked them in style.Although the sweet potatoes were half-baked at that time, and even though she was pressed by her mother to the neighbor's house to apologize later, she never forgot the afternoon when she and her younger sister Ling Shu stole sweet potatoes and baked sweet potatoes together.In the end, that afternoon became her only happiness, and that afternoon was also her only true happiness with her sister... She looked sadly at the two sweet potatoes in her hand, wondering what happened to Ling Shu now?Were you frightened to see her fall into the sea?
Noticing her strangeness, he asked her incomprehensibly: "What's wrong?"

She shook her head and replied: "It's okay." Then she remembered something, and she said to him: "You can find some branches and fallen leaves, but if you want to dry, you need to be able to burn."

"Okay." Although he didn't understand what she was going to do, he would do it after she explained it.

After a while, Zhanyou carried back the dry branches and dragged a bunch of dead leaves.Although Ling Yi didn't know how to make roasted sweet potatoes, but with the branches and fallen leaves brought back by Zhanyou, it was still possible to cook four sweet potatoes.

Zhanyou looked at her busy with strange eyes.He never knew sweet potatoes could do this?
Not long after, Ling Yi took out a sweet potato wrapped in a leaf and handed it to him, "It's ready to eat."

Zhanyou took the thing that looked like charcoal, and he looked at her suspiciously, "Is this edible?"

Hearing his question, Ling Yi looked at him puzzled: "Yeah, why can't you eat it?" Then he remembered something, "You haven't eaten it, have you?!"

He nodded honestly.

Ling Yibai glanced at him and murmured: It really is the young master... "Peel off the skin and eat it." After saying that, she no longer cared about him, and started to eat by herself.

Following her example, he carefully took a bite. Although it was very hot, it was unexpectedly delicious.It's sweet and fragrant, a very natural sweetness..."Delicious."

Hearing his praise, Ling Yi suddenly narrowed his eyes with a smile, and the two of them stopped talking, and attacked Sweet Potato seriously.

After eating two sweet potatoes, the two of them considered their dinners settled.Taking out the teacup and teapot from the room, Zhanyou put down the things in his hands beside her, then went into the room and applied mosquito repellent ointment, and he returned to her side.Sit down on the chair beside her and watch her lying on the recliner asking about the shining stars in the night sky, wondering what she is thinking.The water on the stove beside him was boiling, he fetched water to make tea, and asked casually, "Do you know what day tomorrow is?"

"Tomorrow? Tomorrow, July 7, what day is it?" She recovered and looked at him confusedly.

"Tomorrow is the day I am born to a mother I have never met." The date of his birth.His mother committed suicide the day after giving birth to him.He didn't understand why his mother gave birth to him, he only knew that he was an abandoned child.In fact, many times he wanted to ask his mother, why she decided to leave, why did she keep him?Isn't she afraid of his loneliness?Every year on this day, he would always come to this place, quietly sit on the recliner under her and watch the night sky, and occasionally he would play the blowjob.Every July 7th is the night sky here, and the sound of the flute accompanies him.

"Oh." Ling Yi responded, and then remembered something, couldn't help laughing: "Hehe, if calculated according to the date of this place, tomorrow is also my birthday~~" Birthday... younger sister Ling Shu and her age difference A year and three days.So every birthday of hers is postponed until July 7 to celebrate with her sister.Her heart hurts. Although it seems reasonable, she is still very sad. July 29 is her birthday, and it will never be again after that.She remembered that every day on July 7, she always had to comfort herself and say that it was just a birthday, and it was no big deal.But only she herself understood that even though it was no big deal, it could still hurt her very deeply.

He didn't know what she meant, but he knew that tomorrow was her birthday too.He couldn't help asking her curiously: "How did you celebrate your birthday in the past?"

She was silent for a while, and then said after a while: "No matter how you and I celebrated our birthdays in the past, or how we will celebrate our birthdays in the future, this year's birthday, let's spend it together and celebrate each other together... shall we?"

Her words shook the walls of his indifferent heart, and in an instant, she entered the deepest part of his heart... He smiled happily: "Okay."

"Tomorrow, let's take a basket and find food~~"

"Looking for food?" He didn't understand.

"That's right, we only eat vegetarian food on our birthday. I don't want animals to die on this day. I don't want to go down the mountain to buy them. Although there are many, many vegetables in the market down the mountain, we can always eat them. Our birthday is a little bit different."

Hearing what she said, Zhanyou was even more impressed by her. "Okay, as you said. It's just that I know very few things that can be eaten."

"So do I. So... it depends on whether the heaven wants us to have a full meal or a hungry meal~~ However, we are all bad people, so it is very likely that we will be hungry." Ling Yi smiled happily.

Zhanyou was amused, "Looks like we're going to experience what it's like to be hungry."

He suddenly began to look forward to tomorrow... It was the first time that he looked forward to tomorrow's arrival like this...

Before dawn the next day, Zhan You and Ling Yi each carried a bamboo basket and tools—and set off.

Along the way, Zhan You and Ling Yi each dug wild vegetables that they knew and could eat... Before they knew it, the sun was hanging in the sky. At this moment, Ling Yi suddenly slid forward, and Zhan You beside him stretched out his hand to grab it. With her arm, one force pulled her towards him, and one hand wrapped around her waist to stabilize her body...

Startled, Ling Yi's heart was still not calm, she quietly leaned on his arms to calm down the fear in her heart... If she fell down just now, she really didn't know what would happen to her.

She was quite frightened, and Zhanyou didn't feel much better.Thinking that she was almost injured, his heart throbbed.Once he received the news that she was injured, he was just worried.But this time, his heart was as sad as if he would fall into hell... What happened to him?How could this be?
As soon as Ling, who regained her composure, heard the sound of her heart beating beside her ears, she was startled. She regained her senses and pushed him away. Seeing his astonishment, she said helplessly, "Thank you, thank you."

With nothing in his arms, Zhanyou was a little disappointed, "Be careful."

"Well, I will pay attention." She replied, turned around to pick up the bamboo basket that fell aside, the wild vegetables in the bamboo basket had already fallen out, she covered herself secretly while picking up, and jumped quickly heart of.Why does she feel inexplicably safe and gentle in his arms? ...Is it an illusion, well, it must be an illusion.

At this time, Ling Yi suddenly caught sight of something familiar, and she exclaimed in surprise: "Zhanyou, come here."

Hearing her cry, he immediately walked over, knelt down and asked, "What's the matter?"

Ling Yi opened his palm, and saw several objects lying on the palm. "Do you know what this is?"

He picked up one and looked at it for a long time, then shook his head puzzled: "What is this?"

"Chestnuts. My mother used to take me to the market to buy them, so I know." She smiled smugly.That was the first and only time my mother took her to the market to buy vegetables, so what she saw that day was deeply imprinted in her mind.

Rose's mother went to the market to buy something?Isn't there a servant in Rose's house?These questions only flashed in his mind, he stared at the things in front of him and asked her: "What are chestnuts?"

"Huh??? Haven't you ever eaten candied chestnuts?"

"Candied chestnuts? What's that?"

"That's it..." She shut up suddenly, because she didn't know how to explain the sugar-fried chestnuts to him, and finally he just said to him: "You don't have to ask so many questions, just help pick up some more~~ "

"Okay." He replied, and just as he was about to start, he raised his head suspiciously and asked her, "Are you sure this is edible?"

"This is not only edible, but also very delicious."

After picking up a whole big bamboo basket of chestnuts, Ling Yi took the 'trophies' home first, while Zhan You stayed and continued to search.Unexpectedly, as soon as Ling Yi stepped into the hut, Zhan You also came back, bringing back sweet potatoes, lotus roots and other wild vegetables and fruits that Ling Yi had never seen before.While taking the bamboo basket in his hand, she looked at him who was dripping wet, and didn't ask how he did it, she just said: "Hurry up and change it, don't dirty the house."

He immediately responded helplessly: "Of order."

Ling Yi originally wanted to make sugar-fried chestnuts for Zhanyou to try, but after thinking about it, it was too troublesome, so she gave up.Later, she peeled the chestnuts together with Zhanyou. After peeling more than [-] chestnuts, she got bored and put the bamboo basket away—not peeling anymore.Zhanyou could only look at her helplessly.

Zhanyou cooked the noodles and settled the lunch for the two of them. After notifying her, Zhanyou ran into the house to take a nap.Ling Yi couldn't sleep, because she was thinking about something simpler to eat at night. ... Huh, easy? ~ By the way, it can still be like this.Well, it's better to go to the market and buy something.Thinking about it, she got up and went down the mountain.

When Zhanyou woke up, he stepped into the kitchen and was blown out.Then he was assigned to wash wild vegetables and fruits, etc. Although he was very puzzled, he still did it.Well, the kitchen is not allowed to enter, as long as he does not enter.

When the sun was setting, Ling Yi finally walked out of the kitchen and told him, "It's time to eat."

When the things Ling Yi cooked were brought to the table, and finally even the pot and the strange stove were brought to the table, Zhan You still didn't figure it out, what was she going to do?
"Although eating hot pot in summer is a bit strange, it's much simpler this way."

"Hot pot? What's that?"
