Chapter 130: A Sweet and Salty Little Couple
Everything in the kitchen is difficult for Li Nanzi, she can make the fire of the pot and stove, she will also use traditional kitchen utensils, and she will deal with vegetables......
But the most important thing is the skill and experience of cooking, she is really... Lacking in ......
Being able to eat and be good at eating does not mean that you can do it.
Living alone for so many years has given Li Nanzi the ability to cook, but it is only at the entry level, and he usually cooks noodles and fried potato chips at most, and most of the time he is busy making money and eats outside.
So, how to solve this problem today?
Thinking of this, Li Nanzi wanted to beat Qi Chuan, but it only stayed at the level of imagination. How dare she really do it?
Not to mention that she is reluctant to fight, let's talk about the consequences of doing it, Li Nanzi can't afford it, she doesn't dare to provoke this big demon king who loves to hold grudges and toss her!
"Just reply to him a few words, he will kiss me in public, do I want to lose face? If I dare to do anything else, I must not be skinned by him?"
The more he thought about it, the colder it became, and Li Nanzi shivered.
Now, she is wandering around the vegetable garden under the bamboo forest, looking at the wide variety of vegetables and worrying: What to eat today?
When asked about grandma and Qian Neng's preferences, both said that they were not picky eaters. As for Qi Chuan, Li Nanzi didn't ask, she wished she had chosen a dish that he was super invincible and disgusted......
"Is this the vine of Fushou melon? This melon vine is delicious, and it is easy to make, so let's do something?"
Just reached out to pick it, and Qi Chuan's voice came from behind.
"I don't like this!"
Li Nanzi pulled a little vine down, and said indignantly: Who cares if you like it or not?
The sound of footsteps approached, and rhubarb was the first to appear in the field of vision, holding a vegetable basket in its mouth.
Li Nanzi bent down to take it off, turned to look at Qi Chuan who was coming slowly, and asked with a smile: Are you here to help?
"Yes and no!" Qi Chuan looked back and whispered to Li Nanzi: "I told my grandmother that I would help you, after all, you have to pretend to be affectionate!"
"So, you're just going through the formalities?"
"Correct solution!"
Li Nanzi endured it and said softly: "You can not help now, but there are a lot of big and small things in the kitchen, don't stand and watch!"
"Are you willing to keep your big idol busy?"
"Willing!"
Qi Chuan was stunned for a moment, walked to Li Nanzi's side, and stretched out his white hand. "Do you think I look like I can do housework?"
"Then you think I'm like it?"
Li Nanzi stuffed the vegetable basket into Qi Chuan's arms, and said while picking green beans: "I rarely cook, I don't have much experience, I cook by myself, and I can't taste good or bad." You are pampering me today, you are simply stepping on your own face!"
Qi Chuan disagreed, and stood aside with a vegetable basket. "So what? Who of us cares if you cook well or not, just to have fun! As long as you don't burn the rice and fry the vegetables black, we can still eat it!"
"You are the culprit in the first place if you don't help, I'm going to do my best to make the food extremely poor!"
"Do you have to let me help?" Qi Chuan approached Li Nanzi and said with a smile: "It's not impossible, I can't bear to let my little daughter-in-law be so tired! As long as you call me Chuanchuan, I will help immediately!"
Li Nanzi looked at Qi Chuan coldly, how many times did he ask for this?
After picking green beans for a while, Li Nanzi felt that his nails were very painful, and he couldn't pick them up when he looked at the high places, so he decisively moved his eyes to Qi Chuan, who had a hippie smile.
"Pick vegetables!"
"Shout first!"
Li Nanzi endured it and thought to himself: Shi Ke can't be killed...... Don't eat the loss in front of you......
What if you shout? In the face of people with thick skin and black hearts, you can't wronged yourself because of the word "face"!
"Chuanchuan!"
Qi Chuan was stunned, full of joy. "Huh, silly girl!"
did what he said, he immediately helped Li Nanzi pick vegetables, and there was no star or young master at all. Sometimes, it's like an emotional, easy-to-sway child.
Li Nanzi was stunned for a while, looked at him twice, and then went to the other side to look for food. When Qi Chuan was not angry with her, all aspects were extremely perfect, and she didn't dare to look at it and think about it.
After more than an hour of busy work, I still finalized the dishes for today's lunch.
The rice is wood-fired rice, and Li Nanzi can cook it, and she also knows that the elderly like to add potatoes or sweet potatoes to the rice and cook it together. This kind of rice is very fragrant, delicious with any vegetables, and has more flavor than white rice.
Qi Chuan likes to help and also likes to contradict, saying that he doesn't like potato rice and sweet potato rice. The real reason, Li Nanzi knows, because he doesn't want to peel the skin, after all, these hands-on jobs are given to him.
After all, it is a person who does not touch the spring water with ten fingers, and it is natural to feel tired and bored when doing this.
"Do you like peeling chestnuts then?"
"Do you want to make chestnut roast chicken?" Qi Chuan was full of joy and took the chestnut over and peeled it with great interest. "I like to eat this dish, come on!"
Li Nanzi held back a smile and thought: I want to cook chestnut rice, this one is nine out of ten. Although the chestnut roast chicken is delicious, I can't guarantee the taste, so don't waste the ingredients!
For each dish, Li Nanzi chose what she was more sure of, and she didn't take risks. Not to mention the issue of face, she didn't want her grandmother and money to taste the taste of disappointment.
"Stewed pig's trotters with green beans?"
"How can there be pig's trotters? Green beans are so fresh, how delicious are they in dry stir-frying?"
"Then what are we going to do with digging up this folded ear root? It's so hard to wash, look at its intricate roots......"
"The cold salad is delicious!"
Li Nanzi pursed her lips and smiled, she knew that Qi Chuan didn't like it, and he was about to vomit when he was digging. "You can taste it later, it's absolutely delicious!"
Qi Chuan is serious, washing vegetables is washed one by one, and it takes a minute to process shrimp.
"How do you pick this shrimp line so that you can get it out?"
"Find out by yourself!" Li Nanzi replied while cutting potato slices, looking cold.
In fact, Li Nanzi doesn't know that she is not a master. However, salt-baked shrimp is the only meat dish she is sure of, because she learned it from her grandmother.
"It's so sour, what did you take out of the jar?"
"Sour salt vegetables!" Li Nanzi put the sour cowpeas and sour garlic sprouts on the cutting board and cut a small piece for Qi Chuan. "Taste it, it's delicious!"
Qi Chuan took a careful bite and found that the taste was sour and delicious, so he couldn't help but nod. "Yes, yes, isn't that a row of jars, what's it all about?"
"There are pickles, dried radish, Tsubaki sprouts, etc., there are rice wine, and I will take a look...... Hey, and pickled pepper chicken feet!"
Li Nanzi picked one out and swallowed his saliva. "If you use this as a cold dish, won't you be able to make one less?"
Qi Chuan sneered, "That's what my grandmother soaked for me, and only I like to eat it, you use it as a dish?
"Hey, that's a good idea!
Green pepper preserved eggs, this is a very simple dish. Splash chili oil on the preserved egg covered with crushed green peppers, add some condiments, and a cold dish is ready in a few minutes.
Qi Chuan snorted coldly, "If you steal my idea, then you have to make a potato chip as I want!"
Fried potato chips, delicious is delicious, but in fact it is a technical job. How easy is it to fry potato chips until they are golden brown and crispy?
Li Nanzi was dull and silent, and he had to rely on wisdom at this time. She remembered that her grandmother had said that there were dried potato chips, and these dried potato chips were very easy to operate!
After the oil is boiled, the potato slices will not splash the oil because they are dry, and there is no need to wait, and a large potato slice can be produced in a few seconds.
The beautiful shape, crunchy texture, and not the same taste as the fried potatoes I ate yesterday are just perfect!
In addition, Li Nanzi also made cabbage stewed vermicelli and garlic sprout alkaline water buns. In the meat dishes, there is also a small river fish soup, the taste is not green onion and white fragrance but the cool fragrance of fish fragrance.
Yuxiangzi is a mint-like plant that is often used in fish soup to enhance flavor and freshness.
It's a long time to cook, but it's not worth the wait. Grandma went to see it several times, Li Nanzi and Qi Chuan got along very well, and the atmosphere of the little couple filled the entire kitchen, and she didn't look good.
"It's time to eat!"
After the dish was served, everyone was sitting in their seats, and the three of them were happy and one frowned.
Grandma coughed and said softly: "Nannan has put her heart into it, and every dish is full of color, flavor, and flavor." Chuan'er, what do you mean by frowning?"
"Grandma, don't be in a hurry to praise it, you haven't tasted it yet, how can you say that it is full of color, flavor, and flavor?"
Li Nanzi smiled and explained to her grandmother: "I used a lot of salt to make salt-baked shrimp, and he thought it would be very salty, saying that I wasted the shrimp he had worked so hard to handle, and he was angry with me!"
"That's a lot of salt, it's a whole bag of salt, okay?"
Grandma smiled slightly and gave a shrimp to Qi Chuan. "You taste it first, it will never be salty! Salt-baked shrimp is to use a lot of salt, and the shrimp will be tender and refreshing!"
Qian Neng didn't speak, he tasted one silently, and if it was really as his grandmother said, he gestured to Qi Chuan with his eyes.
Qi Chuan snorted and tasted it with suspicion, it was indeed not as salty as expected, but it was similar to what he usually ate in the hotel, and he had to be relieved.
"Then she lied to me, saying that she was going to make chestnut roast chicken and I peeled the chestnuts, but she used it to cook!"
"Chestnut rice tastes good!" Qian Neng couldn't help but say something to Li Nanzi.
Grandma chuckled softly and patted Qi Chuan's shoulder. "You're angry with Nannan for such a trivial matter? Fortunately, Nannan has a good temper and doesn't bother with you. If you've tasted loss, maybe you won't!
Qi Chuan looked at Li Nanzi and saw that she didn't pay much attention to him, and gradually felt pain in his heart.
These days, he also slowly feels that he doesn't know what to rely on, and he cares about it at every turn, like a little girl with princess disease.
Admittedly, this is very irrational and slightly naïve, and he himself does not like it.
Maybe it's because his grandmother, who has always loved him, has no fear to get more love!
Also, this unrealistic boyfriend and girlfriend relationship also scratches Qi Chuan's heart all the time. What he longed for was that Li Nanzi could call him Chuanchuan naturally.
"Indeed, my girl's cooking is still delicious!" Qi Chuan sandwiched a shrimp for Li Nanzi, and then sandwiched a chopsticks of hot and sour potato chips himself.
Tut!
"Well... It's ......" Qi Chuan took a bite, quickly swallowed it, and said with a smile in the face of the three people's gazes: "It's delicious, sour, and a little spicy!"
Actually, it was a lump of salt that had not been scattered on the potato chips.
Really salty, he still ran into it.
Li Nanzi didn't know what to mean, and tasted the potato chips and didn't find any clues. "Chuan... Chuanchuan, what did you just eat?"
Poof-
Qi Chuan, who was drinking water, almost squirted, turned to one end and coughed, and swallowed violently, causing water to enter the trachea. But he heard me right, right?
"Huh, what do you say?"
Li Nanzi glanced at Qi Chuan, "I said Chuanchuan, what did you just eat?
"It's nothing, it's your love!"
