Chapter 1016 The Alluring Actor (37)
Jiang Tang had never been here before, but today he opened the door to the backyard.
As soon as I opened the door, the warm winter sunshine poured down. The spacious courtyard was filled with various dried flowers and small jars. The smell of sunshine mixed with the fragrance of flowers was a rare treat for the nose.
The sun was a little dazzling. Jiang Tang walked in and looked at the bright dried flowers beside him. He leaned over to grab a handful and put it to the tip of his nose to smell it.
Although the water has been dried, the fragrance is more fragrant.
Walking to the end of the yard, in a remote corner where the sunlight hit, a ray of silver light suddenly appeared.
Jiang Tang turned his head sharply and looked over. After just one glance, he walked up to check.
On the flower stand, where the dried flowers were covered, a cold silver light was revealed. When the layer of dried flowers was pushed aside, nine silver knives suddenly appeared in front of them.
Among them was a curved blade, as thin as a cicada's wing, and extremely sharp. The wind blew up a piece of dried flower, which gently rested on the blade.
Jiang Tang stretched out his hand, and just as he was about to touch it, a man's clear and pleasant voice came from the backyard door behind him.
"Don't touch."
The tone was soft and soft, not like a warning, but like saying: The weather is very good today.
Jiang Tang turned his head and watched the man in red robe walking over. The wind blew through the clothes and stirred up his black hair. Among the dried flowers, the man was more beautiful than the petals.
He walked directly behind Jiang Tang, stretched out his hand, picked up the blade, lowered his head and whispered:
"Be careful, you may cut your hand."
"Aren't you afraid of cutting your hands?"
Jiang Tang turned his attention to other silver knives.
I heard Chao Xi speak slowly.
"I have used it thousands of times, of course I will not cut my hands again."
"Thousands of times, why use it?"
"Look, what can it be used for?"
Jiang Tang thought for a moment, then shook his head and turned to face him.
Chao Xi stared into her eyes, took a deep look, but quickly moved away, lowered his eyes to hide the haze in his eyes, and smiled. "Carve wood, carve incense box."
Jiang Tang casually picked up a box and took a closer look. The incense box was a square sandalwood box with fine hollow holes on all sides. The top of the box was carved with complicated patterns. The box she was holding This one is engraved with peony.
The flowers bloom beautifully and the petals are carved lifelike.
Jiang Tang looked around, subconsciously about to open it, but a pair of white and cool hands held her wrist.
"This hasn't been dried yet. It smells like fragrant paint. It doesn't smell good. Let's go in."
The man's hands were cold, as if they had always been cold.
Jiang Tang didn't say anything more and put the box down obediently. The moment it landed on the flower stand, she felt that there seemed to be two round objects in the box, shaking.
There are almost more than a hundred boxes in the whole courtyard.
Back inside the house, Baizhi made two cups of fragrant tea, then walked to the small yard and closed the door.
This time, the fragrance of the flowers was isolated from the outside, and the sunlight could only filter in through a small window.
Chao Xi kept holding Jiang Tang's hand, leading her to the fire and sitting on the carpet.
"You smell of alcohol."
Jiang Tang went up and smelled it, and there was a lot of alcohol in his mouth.
"Drinking?"
Chao Xi nodded, then lowered his head and took out a bottle of wine from the insulated cabinet under the stove.
"I brewed it, you can try it."
Jiang Tang watched him pour the wine. Chao Xi was good-looking, and everything he did was pleasing to the eye.
"You know quite a few things, including incense making, carving, and now you can also make wine."
Chao Xi lowered his eyes and handed the wine glass to Jiang Tang.
