76. Weekend (B)
Under the vines, Zhou Fangyuan and a few people happily ate grapes.
What do you say about his grapes? They are clean enough to be edible as long as they are washed off with clean water, and their taste is much better than those grapes with chemical fertilizers.
Among them, especially Sun Yong, Pang Zexuan and Yu Ban, they are really full of food.
The family conditions of the remaining three are better, and Shen Xing and Duan Qingyi are still girls, so of course they will be more reserved when eating. It's like those three, a bunch of grapes in one hand, directly on the mouth and down, as if they had never eaten grapes when they were so big.
"I've never eaten such delicious grapes since I was so old. ”
Sun Yong was babbling in his mouth, and his words couldn't be said clearly.
"That's right, that's right......"
Pang Zexuan kept nodding.
It's not easy to get these two to agree on it, and it seems that Dad's grapes have a new function.
"You don't know, the grapes of the fat man's family are from our village, and my favorite thing to come to every autumn is his house. ”
Yu Bangang put down a bunch of cleaned grape branches, picked up another pair of grapes, and said loudly at the same time. The grape seeds in his mouth squirted out, and Zhou Fangyuan really hated to cover his face with a basin.
"Fatty?"
However, everyone's attention was focused on this word, and they subconsciously looked at Zhou Fangyuan.
"When I was a child, I was fat, and baby fat died a little late, so everyone called me fat, but that was a few years ago, and now he is the only one who can't change it. ”
Zhou Fangyuan explained with a smile.
Everyone knows.
"Nonsense, the third brother can't change it. ”
Yu Ban shouted dissatisfiedly on the side.
"You can't stop eating food. ”
Zhou Fangyuan immediately picked up a bunch of grapes and stuffed them directly into Yu Ban's mouth, causing grape juice to splash everywhere.
Yu Ban kept rolling his eyes, not choking, but speechless for Zhou Fangyuan's behavior.
The other students couldn't help but laugh when they saw this scene, that is, the closest friends, who seemed to be afraid to tear down each other's platforms.
A group of people ate more than a dozen catties of grapes in one go, Sun Yong, Pang Zexuan, and Yu Ban ate more than ten catties, and the other three together were not as much as any of them. If you eat too many grapes, you will also lose your teeth, after all, there is not a lot of fruit acid in grapes. And he was afraid that they wouldn't be able to eat at noon, so when Sun Yong and the others said they still wanted to eat, Zhou Fangyuan rejected their proposal.
"You can play cards, and I'll prepare lunch for you." ”
As he spoke, the sun had risen in mid-sky, and the temperature in the air began to rise rapidly. Fortunately, it was still so cool under the vines, and everyone did not feel any discomfort.
took out the playing cards from under the TV cabinet, Zhou Fangyuan threw them to Yu Ban, let Yu Ban play with them, and turned around and went into the kitchen alone.
Opened the freezer, which contained many boxes of bread, chicken and fries that had been half-made.
To be honest, Zhou Fangyuan's cooking skills are really unwatchable, but fortunately, when he accompanied his mother to study these things, he also got it more than once, so he could still get fried chicken and French fries or something.
His kitchen is next to the firewood room, facing east and west with a vegetable patch between it and the vines. If it's raining, you can cook a meal along the eaves of the main house without worrying about getting wet from the rain, even on snowy days.
Making a fire is not difficult for the children in the village. Plug in the oven, take out the bread and thaw it slowly, and then reheat it in the room when it's almost time to reheat it in the oven.
Looking at the chicken and fries, they are also frozen hard, but it doesn't matter, the temperature is so high now, it will be thawed in a while. Making a fire does not mean that it will be fried now, the furnace cavity needs to be heated, at this time Zhou Fangyuan made a pot of water, directly put it on the fire and began to boil water.
From the time the classmates entered his house to the present, everyone has not drunk water, which is also his negligence, and he actually forgot the water.
After preparing all these things, he didn't turn around and go out, but sat directly by the stove and began to slowly pull the bellows, increasing the fire little by little.
After about ten minutes, the water in the kettle finally boiled, and the temperature in the stove reached a satisfactory level. Zhou Fangyuan began to put on the big iron pot, poured cooking oil into it, and began to heat the oil.
He also tried the bread, which was almost enough to be heated in the oven at any time.
This time, he was not in a hurry, leaning against the freezer, waiting for the oil temperature to come up.
"Need help?"
A crisp voice sounded, Zhou Fangyuan turned his head to look, but saw Shen Xing and Duan Qingyi standing at the door, and it was Shen Xing who spoke.
"They play upgrades, we don't play, and we just want to see how the burger is made, so let's help." ”
Shen Xing began to roll up his sleeves as he spoke, looking like he was going to do a big job.
"Don't, don't!"
Zhou Fangyuan immediately stretched out his hand to stop her, as did Duan Qingyi.
"You two have fine skin and tender meat, don't be blind, when the time comes, you will splash oil on your arms, and your uncle and aunt will not eat me." ”
Zhou Fangyuan definitely couldn't let the two of them do it, first of all, there was no reason to let the guests do it, and secondly, he was really worried about what to do if he really splashed the oil on the two little girls? But what if the girl is white and tender, and is about to leave a scar?
Zhou Fangyuan didn't want this to happen, so he refused bluntly.
The two little girls persevered for a while, and when they saw that they couldn't resist him, they didn't force themselves to go into the kitchen, but they also made it clear that they had to do something, and they would never sit and wait for it to eat. Zhou Fangyuan thought about it and gave them a task, that is, to wash cucumbers and tomatoes. Instead of pulling it directly, cut it off with scissors, then draw water from the pressure well next to it, wash it and prepare it for lunch side dishes.
Shen Xing and Duan Qingyi received the task and obediently went to pick and wash vegetables. Zhou Fangyuan called Yu Ban over and took out fifty yuan from his pocket.
"Don't play yet, I almost forgot just now, you go to Uncle Wang's to order a few dishes, preferably the ingredients, today's noon rice is oily, with some vegetarian dishes. ”
Zhou Fangyuan really forgot about this before, if it wasn't for the two female classmates asking for help, he wouldn't have remembered it.
As a result, as soon as he finished speaking, Duan Qingyi next to him stood up straight.
"Yu Ban, don't listen to him. ”
After speaking, without saying a word, he walked up, snatched the money from Yu Ban's hand, and then stuffed it directly into Zhou Fangyuan's trouser pocket.
"Wait, no, I'm afraid you're going to get tired of it......"
"Aren't there cucumbers and tomatoes?"
"It's too monotonous, you guys finally came once, I'm sure I'm going to ......"
"It's already too much for us to come here and eat for nothing without spending money, how can we still let you spend money. Do you want us to come in the future?"
Duan Qingyi stared at him with wide eyes.
The other students also nodded.
"That's right, if you don't welcome us in the future, we won't say anything. ”
"Yes, whoever has meat eats vegetables, I tell you, I won't eat the vegetables if you get them!"
"I usually eat you at home, but I just want to eat meat today. ”
Wu Enqi sat not far away and shouted, everyone agreed that they would not let him spend any more money anyway.
Zhou Fangyuan looked at his classmates, and finally could only reluctantly accept their opinions.
Then the one who should play cards continued to play cards, and the two female classmates who had washed the dishes did not continue to ask to enter the kitchen, Zhou Fangyuan stood in the kitchen by himself, with the oil pot and stove in front of him, and the big sun behind him, to be honest, the temperature was really high. It only took a few minutes for him to sweat, but he didn't care, but carefully put the fried chicken into the oil pan, fried it to the right extent, took it out, drained the oil, and then combined it with the bread that had been reprocessed, put lettuce on the mat and squeezed on the salad dressing, and a burger was completed.
Fried chicken is even simpler, with tomato sauce and salad dressing on a small plate, and whoever wants to dip it directly will do. There is also a special dish of salt and pepper, and some people love to eat salty.
Finally, there are the fries, in fact, everyone has already eaten when the fries come up, but the tempting aroma still makes them can't help but eat all the fries.
The cucumbers and tomatoes were also eaten, and the two large bottles of Coke that Yu Ban ran out to buy were also drunk.
It can be said that this meal is really full of wine and food, and everyone is very satisfied.
After eating, everyone, including the two female classmates, ate with round stomachs. Especially Yu Ban, at the beginning, he yelled that he didn't want to eat chicken, but he ended up eating more than anyone else, which was really insincere.
After taking a break and eliminating food, everyone immediately started to act, cleaned up the table, the female students went to wash the pots and dishes, and the male students began to clean up, and Zhou Fangyuan couldn't stop them. After everything was packed, the group was ready to leave.
Of course Zhou Fangyuan kept them, after all, the weather was still too hot now, wouldn't he be guilty of going out now?
"No, no, I'm going back, I'm used to taking a nap at noon, and I can't stand it if I don't sleep. ”
Wu Enqi waved his hand, like an old man, and insisted on leaving.
Shen Xing and Duan Qingyi also had the same reason, but three of the five people wanted to leave, and Sun Yong and Pang Zexuan were not easy to stay, and the result was that they obviously wanted them to come and play all day, but they had to leave in the middle of the morning.
"If you want to go, you can take these grapes with you. I don't have anything else at home, and I can't give you anything, you also eat these grapes, take them back and give them to your uncles and aunts to taste, don't refuse, this is my little heart, if you want to take me as a classmate, you will accept it. Yu forbidden, don't look at it, there is no you. ”
Seeing that he was so insistent, everyone had to nod their heads in agreement, and walked over and brought the grapes into their hands one by one.
Then the group left Zhou Fangyuan's house, Zhou Fangyuan followed all the way, and sent the classmates on the bus all the way, watching them all sit on the seats, and then waved goodbye.
