Chapter 126: Isn't it warm to sleep together?

Matsushima Edit: " Li Xiang Sauce, when is your new picture book opening?"

While making pickled radish, a new mobile phone message arrived from Asaba Li Xiang.

She took off her gloves and replied to Matsushima's editor.

Li Xiang: "Soon, soon! I'll be able to open it as soon as I'm done with it!"

Matsushima Edit: "What do you do all day, don't you study in China, you should have plenty of time?"

Li Xiang: "I have to cook, clean and do game art on the side, so I'm very busy."

Li Xiang: "[Photo]"

Li Xiang: "Look, I'm making pickled radishes, they're delicious."

Matsushima Edit: "[Swoon] [Swoon]"

It's not that you don't have time! Instead of painting, you're pickling turnips! What kind of radish has taught you that!

Matsushima Edit: "I read the first draft of the script you sent me, and it's a big improvement over the previous one. You actually managed to portray the life of a man and a woman living together in such detail, so you're not getting married in China, are you?"

Li Xiang: "No, no, no, no, I'm not getting married so soon."

Edited by Matsushima: " Come on, Li Xiang! Your fans are urging you to start a new picture book! It's almost New Year's!"

Li Xiang: "I get it!"

After the chat, Li Xiang put his gloves back on and continued to concentrate on pickling the radishes, wondering if he wanted to pickle one more jar and send one back to Matsushima's editor to try.

Now that work on the game has reached the stage of sound and graphics and program synthesis and debugging, she has had some time off.

The Matsushima editor kept urging her to start a new book, but she had fled to China and the Matsushima editor couldn't do anything about it.

Li Xiang's last girl's comic was a love affair between a general and a beautiful girl set in the Chinese Qin Dynasty, and the response from fans was great until the end of the story, and they are looking forward to her new book.

She had talked to Matsushima's editor about the idea, and Matsushima thought it was great, mainly because of the way she portrayed Arya and Lance's cohabitation, which could be a huge hit with girls.

While Shen Yu was still struggling to decide what to get Li Xiang for Christmas, the handy Miss Asaba Li Xiang already had something in mind.

After hearing that Shen Yu was willing to spend Christmas with her, Li Xiang agreed without hesitation to stay and spend Christmas with him before going back.

Whether Shen Yu was with her or not, she had already decided on a Christmas present for him a few days before, and the reason why she had to prepare it so early was because she intended to make it herself.

And she's already working on it, every night after she closes the door to her room, she hides under the covers to do it, she wants this gift to take on her flavour, Shen Yu will love it.

If you go home from the 26th and don't return until the 5th after New Year's Day, that's almost ten days away from home.

Li Xiang doesn't know if Shen Yu will miss her, but she's pretty sure she will miss him.

So while he's still away, he gives Shen Yu a few extra jars of pickled radishes so he can fry them for himself while she's away.

She didn't particularly like the pickled bean curd, but Shen Yu did, so Li Xiang made some together, so they wouldn't go bad anyway, so Shen Yu could take them out when she wanted to eat them.

Li Xiang even wants to make his own bread or pastries, just in case he is not at home and Shen Yu has no one to make them for him when he wants to eat.

Anyway, I just miss him so much, I feel that there is no one to collect his clothes, no one to cook for him, no one to wash his fruits, no one to talk to him ......

She always felt that Shen Yu would be left unattended after she left, until she calmed down and thought about how well Shen Yu had been doing on her own before she came.

Well, thinking too much again ......

Li Xiang encapsulates the pickled radish and pickled beans, the glass jars are lined up neatly on the kitchen stove, the bacon needs to be cured overnight before being taken out to dry.

Once that was done, she started washing and cutting the vegetables and preparing the ingredients for tonight's hotpot.

From the beginning of her relationship to now, Li Xiang could not figure out what to do when she liked someone. She would only be nice to him, super nice to him, she could be close to him, she could hug him and smell him, and Li Xiang would be satisfied.

......

Shen Yu jingles the shelves downstairs.

It's actually not expensive and saves him the trouble of going out and buying a shelf specifically for the purpose, but he doesn't have that in mind.

Li Xiang is upstairs in the kitchen, and there is nothing he can do to help, except perhaps to help her make a rack for drying the pork.

The boys are still very talented at this kind of handicraft work, and Shen Yu looks very professional, taking a ruler every now and then to measure the length of the wood and then taking a saw to cut off the excess.

Su Zhifu is crouched next to him watching the action, with a handful of nails in her hand, helping Shen Yu to keep them safe.

"Nails."

"Nah!"

"Hammer."

"Nah!"

The shelf soon took shape, about one and a half metres high and two metres long.

"Shen Yu Brother, didn't you say you were building a house for a pig? Why doesn't it look like that at all?"

Su Zhifu has been looking at the house for a long time, but I can't make out what it will look like, it's just a drying rack at best!

"When it's time to hang the pork up, it'll look like it."

Shen Yu took a hanger and hung it up, tugging hard on it, and it was very solid.

"So you killed the piglet!"

Su Zhifu was amazed, she thought it was a house for piglets, but she didn't expect it to be for drying pork!

"So do you want to hang up and try it too."

"I don't want it!"

After saying this, Su Zhifu ran away in a huff.

Until Shen Yu called out to her, "Nails."

She came bumbling back, "Nah!"

Once the shelves were finished, Shen Yu took them and placed them in a suitable corner, and the yard looked much different than it did three months ago.

The two sides are covered with small golden flowers. Both marigolds and marigolds have a short growth cycle, are hardy and frost resistant and can last for months, which adds a lot of interest to the small winter yard.

The garlic and spring onions grown by Su Zhifu are also growing very well, and Shen Yu has already picked several crops, but as long as the heads are still there, they will grow again, and they are still tender.

"Pick some small onions, let's have a hot pot later."

"Yes!"

Su Zhifu happily ran to her vegetable patch to pick small onions.

I remember when Shen Yu started picking her green onions, she was so anxious that she cried. Later, when she saw the green onions growing back, Puffs was more diligent than anyone else in picking them, and even when she usually eats her own noodles, she has to come over and pick fresh green onions to put in them.

"Come up for the hotpot~"

Li Xiang brought the induction cooker to the table and the side dishes were beautifully plated and brought to the table, calling them to come and eat.

It was getting late, the temperature in the courtyard had cooled down and Shen Yu had finished his work, so he went up to the first floor with Puffs for dinner.

The heating is on on the first floor and you feel the warmth as soon as you enter the house.

The soup in the pot is already boiling, the steam gurgling up. Li Xiang puts the hard-to-cook ingredients like carrots into the pot first, and in her apron she looks as warm as the room is warm.

The three of them sat down around the hot pot and ate and chatted. Shen Yu was a bit more talkative than usual, and the hot pot atmosphere is always a bit more lively, with the ingredients always causing some cheer or conversation when they are put in and taken out.

Shen Yu pretended not to ask, "Is there anything you would really like to receive as a gift?"

It's no use guessing. For Shen Yu, asking is the best option.

Li Xiang froze and said with surprise, "Me? Is Shen Yu giving me a Christmas present?"

"I'm just asking."

Li Xiang couldn't tell us exactly what she wanted, but with her head tilted in thought she said.

"Well, I want something warm and cuddly, something really cute and fluffy, and if it has a favourite smell, even better!"

Shen Yu almost blurted out, "Don't you just want my jumper!

Shen Yu doesn't bother with her because Li Xiang is so perverted that if he says it, he'll look just as perverted as she is.

"Santa may not be able to help you ......"

"It's okay, Lord Mars will help me!"

"......"

Couldn't your Lord Mars have smashed me unconscious and forcibly stripped me down to give you my clothes?

Su Zhifu's hands are short and her chopsticks are not very good, so Li Xiang and Shen Yu always help her with the dishes.

She has a bowl of condiments in front of her, but she doesn't eat her own bowl, she dips the ingredients into Shen Yu's bowl of condiments every time.

"Did I mix it to smell better?"

"Yes!"

Su Zhifu put the meat dipped in his bowl of seasoning into Li Xiang's bowl, "Sister, try to taste if Shen Yu's is better."

Li Xiang was flattered, she had been craving for Shen Yu's bowl of dressing for a long time, just like the last time she went to a hot pot restaurant, probably because of his saliva, she always thought his bowl was just as good ......

"Mmmmmm! It's true eh!"

Li Xiang sighed in admiration as he pretended not to care and dipped some of the meat into Shen Yu's bowl, then brought it to his mouth as if nothing had happened.

Shen Yu: "......"

Do you think I can't see that you're doing it on purpose!

"Then Shen Yu brother also tasted sister's taste to see if it was good."

Su Zhifu rolled the meat into Li Xiang's bowl, fished it out and put it back into Shen Yu's bowl, two pairs of big eyes staring at him.

Shen Yu froze with his chopsticks in his hand and still took the meat into his mouth ......

It smells good ......

He didn't say anything, but Li Xiang's heart was pounding like a deer, Shen Yu had actually eaten her saliva!

"It's a bit hot ......"

I don't know if it was the heat from the hot pot or Shen Yu's shame from eating her saliva, but Li Xiang's ears turned red as she put down her chopsticks and got up to take off a shirt.

"It's a bit hot ......"

Shen Yu agrees and also puts down his chopsticks and takes off a shirt.

"I'm hot too!"

Su Zhifu wore seven of them and hulked two of them off in a row.

"Brother Shen Yu, the heating in your house is so hot! My Mum never turns on the heating in the living room, she says it costs a lot of money to do so!

"It's a lot of money."

Shen Yu sat down to continue eating the hot pot, but it didn't matter, Li Xiang was afraid of the cold and with the heating on in the house, she didn't have to think about running outside all day, which saved her from worrying.

"So, Shen Yu and Li Xiang, do you sleep with the heating on too?"

"Right."

"So why don't you sleep together, you can save a room on heating!"

Su Zhifu blinked, sure enough he was brilliant.

But why have they both stopped talking ......

Is it not right?
