Chapter 80: Eggs Benedict
Tao Xian was with Su Ruotong, she couldn't leave her for a minute, after eating, Su Ruotong leaned on the corner of the living room with tea as usual to eat, and turned over a novel in her hand by the way, Tao Xian came over, and looked at Su Ruotong with wet eyes: "Tongtong, what are you looking at." As he spoke, he reached out to grab the book on Su Ruotong's knee.
He guessed that Su Ruotong was probably reading the textbook - anyway, since he came to Xinhai, most of the time Su Ruotong had a book in his hand, it was the textbook.
Who knew that when he looked at the cover, Tao Xian was stunned, it turned out to be a romance novel called "The Wife of the Domineering President".
This book was particularly popular seven or eight years ago, known as the originator of new romance, and it was also adapted into a TV series, and the plot in it was particularly bloody, because of the wide spread, Tao Xian probably knew what was written in it.
The male protagonist in the book is super cool and handsome, full of machismo, and the king is broken at every turn, and he changes women like socks. The heroine has all kinds of amnesia, all kinds of crashes, all kinds of kidnapping, all kinds of miscarriages, and all kinds of hardship. In a plot of just 300,000 words, the two of them split and merged almost 20 times, and finally got together.
In this era, this book has become a bloody poisonous weed scolded by many people, what is Su Ruotong doing with it?
Tao Xian searched his intestines and scraped his stomach and said, "Tongtong, do you want to change the book to read?"
Su Ruotong looked up at Tao Xian: "This is good." I don't really understand what the relationship between men and women is like, and I want to learn about it. ”
Tao Xian Yile just wanted to say to Su Ruotong: You won't let me teach you slowly. Over there, Su Ruotong spoke: "I think Chu Hanjiang's character in the book is very similar to you!"
Chu Hanjiang is the male protagonist in the book, who has been repeatedly beaten by feminists as a negative teaching material, and Tao Xian almost squirted out a mouthful of old blood!
This book was actually bought by the original owner, Su Ruotong recalled the plot in the memory of the original owner, and counted his fingers to Tao Xian: "At the beginning of the story, this Chu Hanjiang has many, many girlfriends! And he has a very bad temper, if others don't do one thing according to his heart, he will have to pay a lot of price to others." Also, there is a plot in the book, when Chu Hanjiang pursued Ye Bing'er, he accidentally scratched her shirt, so he bought a thousand identical shirts and hung them opposite the building where she lived. Didn't you run all over the city to buy me roses today, I think you guys look like you!"
Tao Xian is already about to petrify with tears!
It was about to look at Tao Xian's eyes that were too pitiful, and Su Ruotong added soothingly: "Oh, what's more, your careers are very successful!"
Tao Xian's knee hurts so much, he was really shot while lying down, and he felt that even Su Ruotong's praise of him in the end that "his career is very successful" has become his shortcoming!
How could he be as fed as Chu Hanjiang's scumbag! He was so cute!
When Tao Xian was searching his stomach and thinking about how to prove the difference between him and the scumbag to Su Ruotong in essence, Su Changqing came over with a smile and a call.
"Tao Xian, Tu Jiao asked me to ask you, are you free, your mother asked her to meet with you tomorrow to talk about some work matters. ”
Tao Xian's brows furrowed, and he asked Su Changqing for a call: "I'll tell her." ”
Su Ruotong and Tao Xian are officially together now, and when they look at Tu Jiao again, their identities have changed, and the feelings they get are different, and they no longer suffer from gains and losses, but they just feel that Tu Jiao is quite pitiful.
Tao Xian said a few words to Tu Jiao on the other end of the phone, Tu Jiao didn't let go, he must meet in person to talk to him about work, and took out Liu Hongjiao to press Tao Xian, Tao Xian's brows wrinkled deeper and deeper, and shouted: "Tu Jiao, ultimatum, if you can't accept electronic teleworking, then you can resign." ”
In the final analysis, Tao Xian still didn't want to meet Tu Jiao. He was even a little anxious, he was just with Su Ruotong, and he met with Tu Jiao, who had other intentions, what would Su Ruotong think? Su Ruotong still hated Tu Jiao last night.
Tu Jiao didn't let go on the other end of the phone: "This is Mr. Liu's instructions, I must talk to you in person." And you are not qualified to dismiss me, whether it is my recruitment or appointment, it is all through Mr. Liu. ”
Su Ruotong saw Tao Xian's conversation stiff, and said, "Brother Tao Xian, anyway, you have nothing to do during the day, go out and meet her." ”
Su Changqing didn't want to look at Tao Xian and Tu Jiao's contradictions, so he persuaded him: "There are times when your teeth touch your tongue, it's still important to work, you can come back after talking about work." ”
Tao Xian looked at Su Ruotong and saw that she was not angry, so she endured the displeasure in her heart and promised Tu Jiao to meet tomorrow.
When Su Changqing left, Tao Xian looked at Su Ruotong, he really couldn't tell anything from her paralyzed face, and asked cautiously: "Tongtong, will you be unhappy? If you are a little unhappy, I will not go to see her." ”
"No, I'll tell you if I'm not happy. Su Ruotong said: "You also said, Tu Jiao's work ability is good, you talk about work well, I absolutely trust you." ”
Although he didn't want to see Tu Jiao, and felt that Su Ruotong was a little weird like this, Tao Xian was still happy.
After a while, Su Ruotong was a little sleepy and went upstairs with the book in her arms. Before going to bed, she thoughtfully put the bloody romance book in her hand on the bedside, solemnly touched the back of the book, and decided to study it carefully in the future.
She happened to read a plot in the evening, the heroine Ye Bing'er has a love rival, who is the female secretary of the male protagonist Chu Hanjiang, Chu Hanjiang often asks the female secretary out in front of Ye Bing'er for the sake of work, but the more Ye Bing'er is not jealous, the more Chu Hanjiang takes Ye Bing'er to heart.
That's why she asked Tao Xian to meet Tu Jiao just now, and she learned and sold it from books!
Whether it is the stupid character of the predecessor, or Su Ruotong, a fairy who only knows the way of cultivation, there is no such caution, it seems that this book really works, Su Ruotong decided to use it as a love book in the future.
After taking a bath, Su Ruotong did not read the news before going to bed for the first time at night, but read the novel for a while before falling asleep.
When she got up in the morning, Su Ruotong dressed up beautifully and went downstairs to cook according to the content of last night's book.
This morning she was going to make eggs Benedict, with an English muffin base, salmon and vegetables on top, a rippling egg, and a dash of Dutch juice on top.
Su Ruotong's water-soaked eggs made even Chef Charlie sigh to himself. The water in the pot should be boiled until the water in the pot is about to boil, but there is no bubbling degree, and then the egg is beaten into it to form a poached egg - the most important thing is the egg white in the shape of the outer layer of water waves, and the egg yolk that can completely see through the egg whites and the inner layer of flowing soft, and the shape can not be scattered, how to control the fire is the most critical.
The water ripple eggs made by Su Ruotong not only meet this standard, but also the outer layer of the egg white is very beautiful, it seems to be layers of ethereal cloud feathers, and it seems to be layers of snow waves on the water surface. The water wave eggs made by ordinary people will always have a little edge whiskers, or simply flat, but Su Ruotong made them, the whole is perfectly spherical, and when you eat it, you can use a fork to gently poke a small hole in the top of the egg, and you can see the heart flowing out, as if the morning sun is rising, and the golden yellow of the sun is emanating from the clouds, which is the most able to wake up a beautiful morning.
After cooking, Su Ruotong looked in the kitchen, she remembered that there were several different aprons in the cupboard, and several of them were very girly, and Wu's mother was too tender and never wore them.
She picked up a small plaid apron with lace trim in pink and green, hung it on her body, and looked in the mirror, and the effect was not bad. She never wore an apron when cooking, because she never stained her clothes, but now she had to carry a tray to Tao Xian to deliver food, and she needed to wear an apron to imply that she had cooked the meal herself.
In romance novels, it is said that before letting a man do something that is sorry for himself, he should dress up beautifully, pretend that he doesn't know anything, and treat this man better, so that the man will feel more guilty, and then inspire deep love.
Although I don't know what is going on, Su Ruotong feels so powerful. Tao Xian is going to see Tu Jiao today, according to the description in the novel, it obviously belongs to the category of "I'm sorry" for her, so making a beautiful breakfast and serving it to Tao Xian in person should also belong to something better for men!
Tao Xian was still sleeping, he was awakened by the knock on the door, and he was full of anger, thinking it was Wu's mother, so he opened the door with sleepy eyes, and saw Su Ruotong smiling and holding a wooden dinner plate at the door, and couldn't help but be stunned.
Su Ruotong is so beautiful today.
She usually dresses up in clear soup and little water, which is already very beautiful, and she has dressed up today, and her beauty makes people gasp.
Today, Su Ruotong's hair was not simply tied with a rubber band at the back of her head as usual, but was draped, with two thin whips braided at the back of her head as decoration, and a big white butterfly hairpin on her forehead.
She wore an ankle-length plain white lace skirt with delicate patterns of tiny pearls at the corners and a dark green tulle jacket with wide sleeves and hips.
The cute apron tied to her did not destroy the beauty of this dress in the slightest, but instead stretched her thin waist into a beautiful shape, making people want to hold it in their arms.
And the hearty breakfast on the plate in front of her exuded an enticing aroma. The hot milk was covered with a thick crust, crimson cherries, half a cut blood orange, a few slices of cucumbers and two slices of lettuce piled together, and next to it was the still steaming eggs of Benedict.
The beauties and delicacies are all in front of him, and Tao Xian's drowsiness is all gone.
In fact, there is no need for Su Ruotong to wear an apron, Tao Xian also knows that this meal is made by Su Ruotong, because the Su family can have this craft, and she is the only one.
Tao Xian looked at Su Ruotong with emotion and said, "Tongtong, let's eat together." ”
Su Ruotong looked at Tao Xian and said, "No, I still have to send it to my father and Wu's mother." ”
It's a bit weird to only send food to Tao Xian, so there are two other plates in the kitchen, and Su Ruotong will send them to Su Changqing and Wu's mother respectively.
Tao Xian was stunned: "You don't have to be so troublesome, let's go to the restaurant to eat together." ”
"But if I don't send it, Brother Tao Xian, if you don't get up, the food won't taste good if it's cool. After you finish eating, go back to sleep, I'm going to school soon, so I'm having fun today. Good bye. Su Ruotong dodged and left.
Tao Xian looked at the back of her leaving, the second monk was puzzled, and the sense of disobedience in his heart became stronger and stronger. In the past, he was basically the last to get up, and Su Ruotong didn't treat him like this, right? Could it be that this is a preferential treatment after falling in love? But it really feels strange like this.
