Zitu looked back, "My mother died when I was seven years old, and I haven't eaten it since."
"I'm sorry..." Luo Jia apologized, "I don't know."
"It's nothing. After so many years, I am no longer sad." Zi Tu's tone was extremely calm.
Luo Jia looked at his side face and said, "Do you still remember how to make that plum blossom rice?"
"I think my mother did this when I was a kid. She collected the snow from plum blossoms and cooked it with white rice and red beans. The cooked rice looked like red plums falling on the snow..."
Even she had never heard Zitu mention these things.
Opposite me, Zi Tong leaned against Beichen's chest, watching the way Zi Tu, who had always been a man of few words, speak, also stirred up his own thoughts.
New Year?!
She has no memory of her parents, but her memory is more intensely red than the candied haws.
While building a snowman, she bit into a bunch of candied haws. Her face and hands were all red from the cold, but her mouth was full of sweet and sour food... Behind her, grandpa called her back loudly, and she entered the room. The room was full, and the table was filled with
Hot dumplings.
Those days will never happen again.
Beichen looked at her profile, looking thoughtful.
"What are you thinking about?"
"It's nothing, I just remembered the candied haws I ate when I was a kid."
When the group of people returned to Bei's house, it was already the first day of the New Year. The preparations for the New Year had been basically completed, and the servants and servants who came and went all looked happy.
Zi Tong took Zi Tu and Luo Jia to visit Madam Qingyou and Bei Shuihan. Madam Qingyou also liked this innocent girl very much and asked her about Xizhou.
At dinner, everyone ate together. After the meal, Zi Tong originally planned to let Beichen take her and Zitu Luojia to walk around the street. Beichen just said that he had something to do and asked the housekeeper to accompany him.
Zi Tong just assumed that something was wrong with the Bei family, and without asking any questions, she and the housekeeper took the two of them to play on the street.
When she returned from playing, it was already midnight. When she returned to the bedroom, she didn't see Beichen. She asked her servant, but he couldn't tell her clearly.
Zi Tong had no choice but to wash herself and go to bed alone to rest. Beichen came back in the middle of the night and didn't mention anything. He just hugged her and slept with her as usual.
Early the next morning, Zi Tong woke up, but Beichen was nowhere to be seen.
Next to the pillow, a new set of clothes was ready. She dressed in confusion and went downstairs. Two servants in the living room immediately came up to celebrate the new year. Zi Tong took out some gold coins and rewarded them, "Can you see Beichen?"
"Young Master, he went out early in the morning." A servant replied.
Zi Tong just became more and more confused. This guy came back at midnight last night and went out again early in the morning. What was he playing?
Just as he was wondering, he saw Beichen striding into the hall with one hand behind his back.
"What?" Zi Tong looked at his palms behind his back, "Did you prepare a big red envelope for me?"
Beichen smiled, and then stretched out his hand hidden behind his back.
Of course it's not a big red envelope, but two bunches of bright red candied haws.
In Central Continent, the weather is not too cold even in winter, so this kind of food is not popular. It was only when I heard her mention it yesterday that Beichen rushed to find someone to make it. It was originally made last night, but because the weather was too hot, he
When I woke up early in the morning, all the sugar crystals on it had melted away, so I rushed over early to find someone to do it again.
Feeling what he was thinking and knowing the origin of the problem, Zi Tong's eyes just felt hot.
"You idiot, I just said it casually, why did you do this?"
He just gently supported her little face lovingly, "Okay, eat it quickly, it will melt in a while and it won't taste good."
