Chapter Seventy-Eight: Home Cooking
Originally, Lin Mo planned to take Chen Nian back to his hometown after staying in the hotel for only one day, but he never thought that he would be tired like this, so he had to choose to stay in the hotel for one more day.
After the two of them chose the cat, Lin Mo went to the front desk to stay for another day, and then went to the supermarket outside by himself to buy some vegetables and prepare the ingredients for almost a day.
When he returned to the hotel with a large bag of food, Chen Nian was sitting on the bed alone, using his mobile phone to Taobao and constantly pick out what the cat needed.
Lin Mo was still thinking about whether he would fall out of favor after the cat came, but now it seems that he is too worried, because in the current situation, he has fallen out of favor before the cat comes.
"Momo, do you think we should name the kitten Wuren?" Chen Nian asked when he saw Lin Mo enter the door.
Lin Mo can be said to be very depressed at this time, although he likes cats, but if this cat is here to compete with him for favor, he has an inexplicable sense of grievance, and when he heard Chen Nian ask this, he had to nod and say, "Hmm." ”
"Since you agree, then I'll call it Wuren, I'm going to take a look at it later, I must master all the knowledge of raising cats before Wuren comes, and I must give it a perfect meow. Chen Nian cheered himself up while flipping through his phone.
Lin Mo glanced at Chen Nian, and silently went into the kitchen alone, Lin Mo took out the vegetables he bought in the supermarket outside and put them on the board, before he originally wanted to buy some meat, but after looking at the meat in the supermarket, he always felt that he was too tired of eating recently, and finally took a few vegetables and prepared to make a serious home-cooked vegetarian feast.
After looking at the watch, the time was still relatively sufficient, and Lin Mo was not so anxious to prepare the dishes, and while slowly washing the dishes, he recalled the previous itinerary in his mind.
Although it is said that a one-day delay will not have a big irreparable impact on the entire trip, since this is the first time that he and Chen Nian have traveled, Lin Mo still wants to arrange everything as much as possible, especially in terms of special snacks in various places, Lin Mo can be said to have done his homework.
Lin Mo used to come out to play very freely, after all, he had more free time, unlike those office workers, who took the time to see the places they wanted to go, and sometimes they simply stayed in the hotel for a day if they didn't want to go out.
It's just that this time he went out with Chen Nian, and he didn't want to leave any regrets for their first trip, so he started a travel strategy for the first time, from the attractions that must be visited in every city to the local snacks hidden in the streets and alleys.
Chen Nian watched Lin Mo enter the kitchen, but he didn't see him come out after waiting for a long time, so he simply ran to the kitchen to find him, Lin Mo was washing the dishes, and suddenly felt a pair of hands stretched out behind him to hold his hand.
"Momo, why do you seem to be absent-minded, is something going on?" Chen Nian asked worriedly when he saw Lin Mo's appearance.
Lin Mo was a little stunned when he felt that his hands were being held by one hand, and the clear water rushed through the two hands and flowed into the basin for washing vegetables.
After Lin Mo reacted, he turned off the faucet as soon as possible, turned around and hugged Chen Nian, and whispered in her ear: "I'm fine, Nian Nian, I just thought of something just now, and I was a little distracted." ”
Chen Nian felt that his ears were a little itchy, and he distanced himself a little from Lin Mo, "It's okay, why are you going to be stupid here!"
As soon as Chen Nian finished speaking, he was stopped by Lin Mo and hugged him.
"Momo, what are you doing, aren't you tired!" Chen Nian was a little surprised, and his voice unconsciously raised a little.
This pitied Lin Mo, who was holding her, and her ears withstood the direct attack of the famous soprano player in the circle, and she couldn't help frowning.
Lin Mo hugged Chen Nian and put her on the edge of the bed, looked down, but didn't find what he wanted, so he had to circle around the bed, and finally found Chen Nian's slippers between the bedside table and the bed.
Lin Mo held Chen Nian's slippers in his hand, squatted on the ground, grabbed Chen Nian's ankle with one hand, slowly lifted it, and put Chen Nian's slippers on her.
"Well, put on slippers, it's cold on the ground. After Lin Mo finished speaking, he touched Chen Nian's head.
At this moment, Chen Nian's whole person was already stunned, her face was flushed, she didn't expect Lin Mo to simply put on slippers for herself, and the moment she was picked up by Lin Mo, she thought that Lin Mo was going to do something.
Especially when Lin Mo grabbed Chen Nian's ankle, it made her unconsciously think of the shy thing that happened in the pool yesterday.
Chen Nian knew that when Lin Mo was just putting on slippers for himself, he unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but he also unconsciously felt a faint sense of loss, but where did this sense of loss come from, Chen Nian did not delve into it.
Chen Nian put on the slippers that Lin Mo had put on for him, and followed Lin Mo towards the kitchen step by step.
Today's Lin Mo didn't do any particularly complicated dishes, they were all common home-cooked dishes, a shredded cabbage, a scrambled egg with tomatoes, and a fried meat with potato chips.
The dishes had been washed just now, and the rest was a very simple process, and after twenty minutes, Lin Mo brought the dishes to the table.
Lin Mo, who can't cook, can only do his rainbow fart skills at this time, "Momo, it's so fragrant!"
"Momo, these potato slices are so thinly cut!" "Momo, did you say that I did a lot of special and special good things in my last life, so in this life, God rewarded me and let me meet such a perfect you." ”
Chen Nian's praise directly made Lin Mo blush, "Okay, Niannian, don't praise me anymore, these dishes will be cold if you praise me again." ”
"I didn't praise Momo, I'm telling the truth, these dishes are delicious, and Momo has always been very careful in cooking, and I ate the taste of home in these dishes. Chen Nian said while constantly holding the dishes with chopsticks.
"Well, home cookingHome cooking must have a taste of home. Lin Mo smiled and took a piece of egg and put it in Chen Nian's bowl.
Chen Nian's words just now reminded Lin Mo of when he first learned to cook, when Lin Mo cried and shouted that he wanted to learn every time he saw Dad Lin bring out one big dish after another from the kitchen, and every time Dad Lin smiled and shook his head at him.
Until one time, when Dad Lin brought out a green onion roasted tofu from the kitchen, he lowered his head and touched his son's head, and asked with a smile, "Do you want to learn this?"
Lin Mo looked at the relatively ordinary-looking tofu on the plate, and wanted to shake his head, but when he took a slice and put it in his mouth, he nodded decisively.
When Dad Lin first taught Lin Mo to cook, he said something similar to Chen Nian.
At that time, Dad Lin always told Lin Mo that although home-cooked dishes look ordinary, they are the most humane dishes, and you don't need to show off your bells and whistles to make these dishes, nor do you need any tricky knife skills, let alone any messy plating, what you need is to do it with your heart.
Each dish is not difficult, but the taste may be different every time, the ingredients of these dishes are simply firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, but they need to be accompanied by another adjunct, that is, love.
Chen Nian didn't just praise Lin Mo with his mouth, but responded to Lin Mo with his own popularity, and in the end, Chen Nian didn't even let go of the plates, if you call a few people to come in and take a look at these plates, people who don't know the truth will definitely think that these plates have not been used, which shows how clean and wild Chen Nian eats.
"Momo, I love you so much, how can I be able to keep you, a little cook, for myself. Chen Nian touched his stomach with a satisfied face and said.
"It's okay to be immoral and incompetent, because you are Chen Nian, my favorite Chen Nian. Lin Mo said word by word with a smile.
Chen Nian "chuckled" in his heart, how could this damn man suddenly become so sweet.
