He patted her waist and strode towards the small hotel next to the church.
Ran Mi turned her head and glanced at the speedboat going away. The prosperity on the shore was too far away from Ye Zhi Island, making this place feel like a paradise.
very good!
She pursed her lips and smiled, then quickly followed Li Yichuan.
Without Lin Yao by his side, Secretary Xiao Wen was actually quite reliable in handling matters. Everything Ran Mi needed was ready, from the inside out.
It's not easy to be his secretary assistant. You have to deal with both business and family matters. Ran Mi sighed, picked out a sky blue sportswear, put it on, changed into a pair of flat shoes, and went out to find him.
He changed clothes too quickly and was already squatting on the roadside, watching the fishermen remove the small fish from the silk.
"Li Yichuan, I'll give you a gift." Ran Mi pulled him and said with a smile.
Li Yichuan turned to look at her and stretched out his hand to her.
Ran Mi took out a small cloth bag from her pocket and placed it in his palm.
He weighed it, it was a bit heavy, pulled off the strap, dug through it with his fingers, took out a stone, painted it black with paint, painted it into Bao Gong's face, and also painted a band-aid on his face.
He laughed in a low voice and took it out again. This time it was a maple leaf, which was pressed flat and became a bookmark. He looked down, holding one in one hand, and remained silent for a long time.
"Don't like it?" Ran Mi was a little embarrassed.
It is true that they are not valuable, but what luxury goods has he never used? She really doesn't know what to buy. This pebble can be used as a paperweight to help him hold down the documents when he reads them. This bookmark can mark what he sees for him.
place...
She twisted her fingers, gently kicked his heels with her toes, and whispered, "You can support him if you don't like it. I did it for two days."
Yes, I picked up so many pebbles and maple leaves from Maple Bay that day, and spent so long tracing and painting them, that in the end I only had these two treasures left.
Li Yichuan laughed, put the things back into the little cloth bag, put his arms around her waist, and said in a deep voice: "I like it, I approve you to design your little cloth piece."
"What is a small piece of cloth? It is jewelry, a wedding dress, and a beautiful thing that women like!" Ran Mi also laughed and tapped his shoulder with her hand.
"Well, women like beautiful things..." He imitated her tone, took her finger, and walked forward slowly.
In fact, he has not had such a leisurely time in some days, and he was not originally scheduled to vacation here, but now he is restricted from leaving the country and must be there at any time to accept interrogation.
Ran Mi was kept in the dark and thought this was his special arrangement.
The two of them had no mobile phones or computers, and had no contact with the outside world at all. They watched the waves, listened to the sea breeze, looked up at the blue sky, and then looked down at the white sand.
The wind blew her short hair into a mess, the temperature was not low, and the sun warmed her body, making her whole body feel comfortable.
The two of them reached the market of the small village with their fingers intertwined. Just as Ran Mi was about to ask where they were going, he had already taken her hand and dragged her to a fishing beach, smiling and saying:
"Come, buy food and cook."
"ah?"
She looked stunned, this honeymoon was really... full of the smell of firewood, rice, oil and salt.
He let go of her hand, bent down, and selected from a large pile of fish caught in the morning. Surrounded by several aunts and uncles wearing high boots and plastic aprons, they enthusiastically introduced the types of fish.
Ran Mi watched from the sidelines. She was not good at this. She could only choose live fish, unlike him, who carefully selected the fat ones and the thin ones, all based on their eyesight.
But what's the compatibility between you and the fish that's about to be surrounded by red? She thought it was funny, but she still listened to his instructions with a serious look on her face.
"Take it." He finally picked a suitable one, gave her the black plastic bag containing the fish, and continued to pick out the prawns.
Ran Mi followed behind, looking like a little daughter-in-law.
There are still many fishmongers in the market who come to the island to purchase, but it is already past the peak period. The remaining fish and shrimps are picked from the leftovers. Although they are not big, they are fresh and lively in the plastic bags.
clatter.
"Li Yichuan..." Ran Mi hesitated and asked him in a low voice, "Your mother... doesn't understand, how can you let her go?"
"Well, it will be fine." Li Yichuan said calmly and stopped in front of a store.
Ran Mi looked up and saw that this was a small restaurant with simple furnishings. Li Yichuan would not usually come to such a place to eat.
"It's right here." The expression on his face suddenly became excited, and he strode in regardless of her reaction.
Ran Mi looked up and down at the door for a while, puzzled by his selection criteria. There were several fish stalls on this small street, so she really didn't know what he liked about this unprepossessing place.
"Boy, what do you want to eat?"
The landlady came over speaking not very standard Mandarin, and greeted the two of them to sit by the window with a smile.
"Where is the kitchen, we can cook it ourselves."
Li Yichuan took out his wallet, put down a few hundred yuan first, and asked the landlady to put away all her doubts. She had nothing to be unhappy with if someone was willing to pay for the work.
He took the two of them into Hei Buliuqiu's kitchen, pointed out various tools and ingredients to them, and then went back to the lobby to get busy.
He took off his coat, threw it to Ran Mi, rolled up his sleeves, tied on his apron, and then said slowly: "Do you know why we are here?"
Ran Mi shook her head, "I don't know."
He laughed softly and said in a deep voice: "Because this is the place where I first worked."
"Ah?" Ran Mi looked at him in astonishment.
He neatly removed the scales, disembowelled the fish, washed it, and then said:
"People here depended on fishing. At that time, only small boats came to collect fish. My mother and I came here to sell the fish. The money was stolen, so my mother took me to ask each house who needed help.
, I cut off the fish scales here for a day, and learned how to make authentic Ye Zhidao sweet and sour fish here, I will cook it for you."
Ran Mi didn't know what to say. When he talked about the past, she always felt ashamed of him and stood there at a loss.
"Ran Mi, don't stand here, go cook."
He turned to look at her and directed her to do something.
"Oh." She quickly rolled up her sleeves and went to wash the rice and cook it.
She no longer uses firewood to cook rice as before, and she is also proficient in using the electric pressure cooker. She also puts some scallops in and makes some fresh porridge.
The first meal of the honeymoon is eaten by two people together, which is quite meaningful.
Ran Mi was concentrating on her work and didn't notice that he was turning his head to look at her, his eyes full of happiness.
"Ran Mi..." He suddenly called her again.
"Huh?" She turned her head and looked at him uneasily.
"I'm just telling you about my past."
He smiled, turned his head, and put the fish into the burning oil pan. Amidst the sizzling sound, the aroma came out.
He could see her discomfort, which made Ran Mi feel very warm. She washed her hands and came over to help get the plates.
In this family, he is the one who makes money, he is the one who protects people, he is the one who cooks delicious food, and he is the one who provides food for her family... Ran Mi can't describe this feeling, must she have found a treasure?
"Taste it." He picked up some fish with his chopsticks, pulled out a long thorn with his fingers, and fed the fish meat to her mouth.
Ran Mi bit it, nodded, and said with a smile: "It's delicious."
"It's so delicious... When will you cook it for me? You are the wife, and the one who cooks should be a woman." He glanced at her, spoke slowly, and continued to season.
Ran Mi took a pair of chopsticks, put the fish in the pot, and said with a smile: "That's right, I will be a happy wife, and you will take care of your wife's fate."
He looked up at her with gentle eyes and smiled softly.
Ran Mi liked hearing his laughter very much, it was like the sea water warmed by the sun, lapping at her heart, rubbing it again and again, making her heart feel hot.
"Li Yichuan, why are you so good?"
She pursed her lips and smiled, hugging his waist from behind in a rare act of coquettishness.
"As long as you are obedient, I will treat you well. If you are disobedient, I will suppress you with a big stick."
As he said that, he put her little hand on his big stick, which made Ran Mi feel so embarrassed that she giggled behind him and blinked, with a naughty light shining in her eyes, boldly
She put her hand under his apron and patted his big stick.
"Want to help?"
The landlady came over and stood at the door and asked the two of them.
Ran Mi was startled and quickly retracted her hand.
How could Li Yichuan let her go when he took this opportunity? He pressed her hand and turned to the landlady and said, "Thank you, peel some garlic for me."
The landlady quickly agreed and went to stir up the garlic in the vegetable basket by the wall.
"Let go." Ran Mi begged him softly.
"Why should I let go? Didn't you ask me to serve you? I'll serve it like this first. Only when it is happy will you be happy." Li Yichuan's hand holding the spatula lightly touched it with his elbow.
Touched.
Ran Mi turned to look at the proprietress. She was at the door and couldn't see her little movements, so she lowered her long eyelashes and pinched it hard.
