[Xinyi, dispelling wind and dissipating cold, warm and vein.] ]

"I remember that you barely ate tonight, I'll cook you a bowl of noodles, soon!" Shen Taotao earnestly invited Xu Chenan to enter the door, but in fact, she was also nervous.

Since she moved into this small apartment, she hasn't had any people of the opposite sex except for her father. So in a sense, this is the first time she's invited a man into her home.

She rented a small loft apartment, with an area of 40 square meters, but it was made into a duplex, and the space was actually not small. Below is the kitchen and living room, and upstairs is her bedroom, so it is not inconvenient for Xu Chenan to come in.

Shen Taotao didn't care what Xu Chenan's reaction was, after entering the door, he first changed his shoes by himself, and then took out Shen's father's slippers from the shoe cabinet and placed them at the door.

What she meant, it was self-evident: "I called you out to eat, but you didn't move your chopsticks at all, I can't let you toss all night and still be hungry!"

Xu Chenan hesitated for a moment, but still entered the door, but he stared at the pair of men's slippers, and his mood was a little complicated.

His hesitation fell in Shen Taotao's eyes, and he was misunderstood as disgusted that the slippers were not clean, and hurriedly explained: "There is this pair of men's slippers at home, and my father will occasionally come over and prepare them for him." Doctor Xu, don't worry, it's all clean. ”

"It's okay, I don't mind. Xu Chenan smiled, bent down to change his shoes, and placed his leather shoes neatly on the shoe rack, fully demonstrating his good personal habits.

"Doctor Xu, you sit down first!" Shen Taotao pointed to the sofa and motioned for him to sit down and wait. She hurried to the kitchen again, washed some fruit and brought it to the coffee table, turned on the TV and put the remote control to him, and asked him, "Dr. Xu, what do you want to drink?"

"I only have coffee and tea in my house, no drinks. She added with some embarrassment. She doesn't like to drink very much, but she relies on coffee to refresh herself when she writes at night, and she has a lot of fun.

"Just give me a glass of boiled water. "Xu Chenan is not picky. He is a student of traditional Chinese medicine, and health care is almost instinctive, and he usually does not touch stimulating drinks such as coffee, and he rarely even touches alcohol.

"Okay, then you wait a minute, there is no one at home during the day, I have to burn it now." Shen Taotao nodded, found the electric kettle and added water to it.

She doesn't like to use water dispensers, mainly because she thinks that the quality of bottled water is not good enough, so she always boils water to drink. There was a mountain not too far from her house, and there was a spring in the mountain, so someone drove a cart to collect the water and sell it piecemeal.

The time when the water truck is not very fixed, there is a cleaning aunt to clean in the morning, if you can catch up, you will buy it for her, if you happen to not catch up, there is no water at home, so she can only go down by herself.

When she was in need, whenever she heard a horn shouting downstairs, she would carry an empty bucket down. She is a delicate and weak girl, but she is still good-looking, and the little brother who buys water will be very enthusiastic to mention the elevator for her every time, so she is not too troublesome.

The water boiled quickly, and Shen Taotao also drove in the leftover Liangbai in the morning, adjusted the water temperature to the right place, and sent it to Xu Chen'an.

"Thank you. Xu Chenan took it and thanked him.

Shen Taotao scratched his hair again: "Doctor Xu, I took a look, there are not too many ingredients left at home, can I cook noodles for you?" ”

"It's okay, just cook a little bit, I'm sorry for you. Xu Chenan smiled apologetically, got up and followed her to the kitchen, "Do you need me to help?"

Shen Taotao was startled, and the spice bottle in his hand almost fell, so he hurriedly stopped him: "No, no, I'll just come by myself, soon! You go and rest for a while, it's been a tiring day." ”

Xu Chenan saw that her movements were very skillful, and knew that she probably cooked a lot, so she returned to the sofa and sat down with confidence.

Shen Taotao originally planned to make her best braised beef noodles, but considering that eating meat at night doesn't seem to be easy to digest, and the beef is not processed well in advance, the taste should be greatly reduced, so I just gave up thinking about it.

Oily noodles are probably a good choice.

Finely chop the green onion, ginger and garlic for later use, directly use the remaining water in the kettle just now, put the bean sprouts in the pot, blanch them until they are broken, remove them, control the moisture, and spread them evenly at the bottom of the bowl. Blanch out again and put the fresh cabbage aside.

Noodles are ready-made hand-rolled noodles, Shen Taotao loves to eat noodles, when he is not busy, he rolls out more, puts them in the refrigerator and freezes them, and occasionally takes them out to save an emergency.

Cook the noodles until soft, drain them and place them on top of the bean sprouts, then top with green onions, ginger and garlic, salt and chili powder. At this time, the oil in the pot was just boiling to seventy percent hot, and she poured the oil evenly on top of it, and quickly poured two spoonfuls of vinegar into it.

With the sound of the clang, the aroma also emanated. Pour a little more soy sauce to make the texture richer, and finally add the blanched cabbage, stir well, and serve.

Xu Chen'an had already followed the fragrance, and when he saw the tempting fragrance of noodles on the table, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

He was already hungry, but now he had an appetite and couldn't wait to try it.

"How's it going? Shen Taotao still wore an apron, pulled out a chair and did it, waiting for his evaluation with anticipation.

"Very tasty, thank you. Xu Chenan praised sincerely.

It's really good, the noodles are completely juiced, and because there is an isolated noodle soup with bean sprouts at the bottom, the noodles are not soaked soft, and they are very strong.

"Really?" she still knows her craftsmanship in her own heart, as long as she doesn't play abnormally, she should be able to get on the stage. It's just that the person who tasted it was Xu Chen'an, and the ingredients were still limited, so she inevitably had a heart full of up, for fear that it would not be his taste.

"It's true, it's delicious. Xu Chenan took another big bite, chewed very seriously, and looked at her with a smile after swallowing, it seemed that he really felt good.

"Can I ask Chef Shen, do you have any exclusive secret recipes? I like to eat noodles very much, but when I make them myself, the taste is not as good as yours. ”

The two have common preferences, which is really surprising to Shen Taotao. How do you get that sentence? It probably means that people who have the same eating habits can get along better.

"Actually, it doesn't seem to be difficult, but I have learned some secrets from the chefs in the past two years. Knowing that he loves to eat, Shen Taotao really thought about it seriously, and he couldn't wait to teach him.

"The best oil is sunflower oil, tea oil and other texture is relatively refreshing, boiled to seven achievements can be, this degree can just force out the fragrance of green onions, ginger, garlic and chili peppers, and a lot of burnt. Then the first time the oil is poured to add vinegar, I personally prefer to use Zhenjiang balsamic vinegar, hot oil vinegar can retain the vinegar fragrance, but there is no jerky taste. ”

Speaking of this, Shen Taotao slapped his head, threw off the chair and ran to the stove, the slippers slapped on the ground, making a snapping sound, Xu Chen'an looked dazed, and inexplicably felt a little funny.

"Look at my memory, I forgot to fry poached eggs for you. Shen Taotao directly used a spatula to hold a half-cooked poached egg, the shovel was slightly tilted, and the egg slid into Xu Chenan's bowl, "Stir it, it should taste good." ”

Xu Chenan did so and gave her a thumbs up: "I'm really going to call you Chef Shen in the future." ”

Shen Taotao sat diagonally opposite him, holding his cheeks with both hands, his eyes narrowed with joy, and he only knew that he smirked: "It's good if you like it." I'm also very good at making braised beef noodles, and I'll make them for you when I have the chance. ”

"Well, I'm in for a treat. Xu Chenan looked at Shen Taotao wearing a pink cartoon apron, and his heart seemed to be poked, and even when he was eating, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned.

Eating a bowl of noodles, Xu Chenan rushed to wash the dishes, which made Shen Taotao cry and laugh. Where is the reason to let the guests clean up the mess?

Xu Chenan insisted very much, saying that she was already very upset about bothering her to cook at night, and she must not trouble her to wash the dishes again.

So, it was replaced by Shen Taotao, the owner, sitting in the living room watching TV, while Xu Chenan was cleaning the battlefield in the kitchen.

She suddenly remembered that the previous time in Zhixi Hall, Xu Chenan specially borrowed the kitchen to stew chicken for her, and finally the bowl she brushed. One cooks and the other washes dishes, such a division of labor seems to be quite good.

"Thank you for your hospitality, it's not too early, I'll go back first. Xu Chenan came out of the kitchen, with undried water stains on his hands and forearms, "You must pay attention to safety alone, lock the doors and windows, and contact the property in time in case of special circumstances, or call the police." ”

"Okay, I know. Shen Taotao responded obediently, but he seemed to be carrying a fire in his heart, the more carefully he advised, the higher the small flame jumped, and gradually became a prairie fire.

Seeing that he was about to close the door and leave, Shen Taotao suddenly called him: "Xu Chen'an!"

He paused to close the door and looked up at her.

Shen Taotao's heart beat like a drum, and the fire also burned to her cheeks, and she knew that the temperature must be surprisingly high without touching it. She took a deep breath, stared straight into his inky eyes, and confided out the words that were holding back in her heart.

"Xu Chen'an, I like you. Would you like to think about it and let me be your girlfriend?"

In this short night, she seems to have done all the crazy things.

asked him if he was single at the wine table, sang love songs at KTV, led him into the house, and cooked himself...... She flinched for a while, not daring to tell him what was in her heart clearly, but at this moment, she didn't know where she got the courage, so she said it bluntly.

She liked him.

Shen Taotao likes Xu Chen'an.

Loved it, loved it.

"I like you" shouldn't be something I did secretly, you have to know it.

Xu Chenan was silent and didn't give her an answer, and the longer it dragged on, Shen Taotao's heart sank little by little.

He sighed lowly, as if he was a little apologetic, or helpless: "Tao Tao, you are still too young, and sometimes you may not be able to distinguish your emotions clearly, and mistake closeness for like." ”

Shen Taotao hurriedly interrupted him: "I'm already 23 years old, not young! I haven't been in love, but I like the feeling of being alone, how can I not understand?!"

"Xu Chen'an, I really like you, women like men!" her voice was choked, and her voice was a little broken.

He lowered his eyes and stopped looking at Shen Taotao, but he felt that his eyes were a little dry: "Tao Tao, I am a full eight years older than you, your life has just begun, and you will meet better and more suitable people in the future." ”

"Maybe some of my actions in the past have caused you to misunderstand, then I apologize and hope you can forgive me. His tone was as calm as ever, and he couldn't hear too many emotional ups and downs, but there was a hint of determination inexplicably.

"You and I are not a good match. ”

In the end, he used seven short words, almost cruelly to put the coffin on the relationship.

"I'll go first, you remember to lock the door. He walked into the elevator quickly, leaving Shen Taotao with a thin back.

"Xu Chen'an!" At the moment when the elevator door was about to close, Shen Taotao suddenly shouted, "I won't give up! I will definitely prove it to you!"

The door slammed shut, and her tears flowed down her cheeks.

Change my heart, for your heart, I know each other deeply.
