Chapter 173: Barbecue
The charcoal balls in the disposable oven were completely ignited, but due to the strong light on the terrace, the surface of the charcoal balls was covered with a layer of burned ashes, so that the red fire inside could not be seen, as if it had been extinguished. But the greasy crucian carp on the grill is a testament to the power of charcoal fire.
"What kind of smell?" Ji Xiaoying, who was leaning on the recliner, sniffed, turned her head and saw a trace of black smoke coming out of the oven in front of Lu Xiaorong, and hurriedly sat up straight and shouted, "Lulu!
"Ouch!" Lu Xiaorong snorted lightly and picked up the fish in her hand, only to see that the side facing the charcoal fire had become a black paste, and she couldn't eat it.
They caught this fish in the morning, and asked the waiter to wash and cut it and then skewer it and send it over. I thought that I would catch it myself, and then bake it myself, it must have a different taste, but I didn't expect the first one to be roasted into waste.
"Alas!" Ji Xiaoying sighed and said with a look of pity, "I still think my skills are not good, and you can't do it at this level!"
Lu Xiaorong smiled apologetically and said, "I'm distracted." ”
Liang Wenbo, who was painting Tang Xiaoxiao on the other side, glanced at them and said disapprerovingly: "If it's baked, throw it away and bake it again!"
Ji Xiaoying raised her eyebrows, turned her head to Liang Wenbo and said, "I'm quite good at speaking cool things, why don't you remind Lulu?"
Liang Wenbo said with a smile: "I'm upwind, I haven't smelled it at all." ”
Ji Xiaoying reprimanded again: "If you don't do it yourself and don't care, you know that it's delicious and lazy." ”
Liang Wenbo hugged and said: "You said it, let's just wait to eat, how can you blame me?"
Lu Xiaorong looked at the charred fish in her hand again, then threw it into the trash can with some reluctance, took another one and put it on the oven, and said, "I'll pay attention this time." ”
Ji Xiaoying sat down opposite Lu Xiaorong and said, "Let's come together." ”
Lu Xiaorong smiled and said, "Okay, let's compete to see who can bake it deliciously." ”
The area on the oven was relatively limited, Ji Xiaoying picked the largest fish, and found that it was a little difficult to put down, so she gave up the fish, put some mutton skewers on it, and said, "Are you worried about that kid?"
Lu Xiaorong nodded.
Ji Xiaoying said: "What is there to worry about, what else can happen to him as a big man." ”
Lu Xiaorong thought to herself, the other party is several big men. said: "Xiaoying, if he is in trouble, will you help him?"
Ji Xiaoying smiled and twisted Lu Xiaorong's face, and said, "Look at your face, you have to pull him." But don't worry, that guy is very bad, it's good if he doesn't pit others, who can pit him. ”
Liang Wenbo continued: "I deeply agree with this!"
Ji Xiaoying said: "Look, everyone thinks so. ”
Lu Xiaorong couldn't help but be a little speechless at these two people, but when they said this, her heart was also a little more stable.
Liang Wenbo finished the last stroke of the painting, looked at it first, and then turned the drawing board and said to Tang Xiaoxiao, "How is it?"
Tang Xiaoxiao looked at himself in the painting, smiled and nodded, and said, "I like it very much." ”
Liang Wenbo asked in a low voice, "Do you like to paint?"
Tang Xiaoxiao's face was slightly red, and he turned his head and did not squeak.
Liang Wenbo laughed twice, put away the drawing board and said, "Let's have a barbecue too." ”
Ji Xiaoying and Lu Xiaorong both felt a little unable to use an oven, and when they saw that Liang Wenbo also came to join in the fun, they asked him to light another stove to play. Liang Wenbo was also happy not to make peace with them, so he started a new stove with Tang Xiaoxiao on the side.
The four of them barbecued around the fireplace, but they were also happy. This time, they looked after each other, and although there was still a "fire" situation, it only happened in a local area and would not be scorched. After a while, some things were baked, at least the appearance was passable.
Lu Xiaorong picked out a little grilled fish with chopsticks, put it in her mouth and tasted it, frowned and said, "It's a little fishy." ”
Ji Xiaoying also took a little bit and tasted it, and said, "Yes, but it's okay, isn't the fish a little fishy?"
She divided the grilled meat skewers into two skewers, picked up one skewer herself, and rolled the meat into her mouth with a straight stroke in front of her mouth, and ate it quite heroically. But in the next second, her eyes widened, and her chewing movements stopped, as if she had been immobilized.
Liang Wenbo didn't have any confidence in Ji Xiaoying's craftsmanship from the beginning, and decided whether to eat her baked food after someone tasted it. Seeing Ji Xiaoying's expression, she couldn't help but smile and said, "It seems that it is so delicious that I even swallowed my tongue." ”
Ji Xiaoying froze for a few seconds, and finally couldn't help but turn her head sideways and spit out all the things in her mouth into the trash can, then picked up the juice and poured a few sips, spit out a mouthful of turbidity and said, "Mom, it's salty to death!"
Tang Xiaoxiao pursed his lips and smiled, and distributed his roasted chicken wings to everyone.
Liang Wenbo ate two bites of Lu Xiaorong's grilled fish, and ate another piece of chicken wings, saying, "To be fair, chicken wings are the best." However, Xiao Lu's fish is also good, it is fishy, maybe there is a problem with the lake here. ”
Ji Xiaoying looked at Liang Wenbo and said, "You're quite good at commenting, what about the things you baked?"
Liang Wenbo said: "I have self-knowledge, and it's OK to get started." ”
Ji Xiaoying swept Liang Wenbo up and down a few times with her eyes, and said, "Boy, don't get carried away!"
Liang Wenbo grinned, heard the sound of the door opening in the hall, and said with a finger in his hand: "Mo Fan is back." ”
Lu Xiaorong turned around, and sure enough, she saw Mo Fan closing the door and walking towards the terrace, so she felt at ease.
Ji Xiaoying glared at Liang Wenbo and snorted, but did not continue to investigate, but picked up the mutton skewers she had grilled before from everyone's plates and threw them into the trash.
Mo Fan walked to the terrace, sat down next to Lu Xiaorong, and said, "Foodies, do you keep my share?"
Liang Wenbo said: "You are really good enough, we have just started." ”
Mo Fan said: "Of course, what kind of appetite can you have when you eat with those people." ”
Although Lu Xiaorong wanted to ask about the situation, since she had already met someone, she was not in a hurry, and the two of them could talk slowly when they went back. said: "Xiao Xiao's grilled chicken wings are very good. This is my grilled fish, which is a little fishy. ”
Mo Fan only drank some juice at the dinner table before, and his chopsticks didn't move at all, so he would be a little hungry. He ate a piece of chicken wing, praised it, and tasted the fish grilled by Lu Xiaorong, which was already cooled at this time, and the fishy smell became a little stronger.
"Luckily, I expected it. He winked at Lu Xiaorong and took out something from his pocket, but it was a bottle of two and a half of two pots, commonly known as "Xiao Er" in Beijing.
"Won't it be fishy when you eat grilled fish and white wine?" Liang Wenbo asked in surprise, reaching out to get the bottle of wine.
Lu Xiaorong saw that Mo Fan had burned the fish and guessed the use of this liquor.
Mo Fan struck Liang Wenbo's hand with chopsticks and said, "You won't drive when you go back in the afternoon?" Be careful that your police sister catches you in!"
Liang Wenbo retracted his hand, looked at Ji Xiaoying and smiled: "How can it." ”
Ji Xiaoying squinted at him and said, "You try." ”
Mo Fan put the fish that Lu Xiaorong had grilled on the fire and reheated, and when the fat began to rise, he poured some wine on it. As soon as the wine is hot, it immediately evaporates, exuding a fishy aroma, but it is also mixed with a heavy fishy smell. Then Mo Fan sprinkled some chili noodles and cumin powder on the fish, using more than Lu Xiaorong before. After a few more minutes of baking, he put the fish on a plate and said, "Let's try it again." ”
Liang Wenbo put a piece in his mouth, chewed for a while and spit out a few thorns, and said: "It tastes good, but there are too many broken fish bones, and it's really unpleasant to eat." ”
Ji Xiaoying also took a bite, felt that the taste was really good, and said: "This guy has been stealing corn and potatoes from the farmer's uncle since he was a child to roast and eat, and of course he has a lot of experience. ”
Lu Xiaorong said curiously: "Xiaoying, how do you know?"
Ji Xiaoying's face froze, then she pulled out a fish bone from her mouth and said, "He bragged to me." ”
Why do I have nothing to do with you? Mo Fan couldn't help but pursed his lips, but he didn't say anything to deny it. I thought, could it be that after several temptations, she finally believed that the former me was the current me?
With Mo Fan's guidance, everyone's interest in barbecue suddenly soared, and the taste of the barbecue was basically passable. For them, it's not cooking, it's entertainment.
Speaking of barbecue, it was the first cooking method that humans would know, and it was a thunder fire many years ago that made the ancestors of mankind discover that the burned beasts were better than the ones killed, and since then they have kept the fire and escaped the life of drinking blood. Perhaps all this has long been deeply rooted in human genes, which is why so many people have a strong interest in barbecue.
Everyone ate and played until all the four charcoal stoves were used up. After resting for a while, I packed my things and prepared to return.
In front of the main building, Lu Xiaorong accompanied Ji Xiaoying to check out, Liang Wenbo and Tang Xiaoxiao went to the parking lot to pick up the car together, and Mo Fan guarded the two bicycles, waiting for Liang Wenbo to drive over and put them up.
After a while, Mo Fan saw Hu Farun and Guo Qibing walking out of the building. The two greeted him and said goodbye, and he exchanged a few words of greeting. As soon as the two families disappeared, Liu Xiangjun came out of the building again, and with him was a woman in her early twenties.
"Mr. Mo, are you going to go back?" Liu Xiangjun said loudly when he was still a little away.
Mo Fan waited for him to come to him before saying, "Yes, Mr. Liu is also ready to leave?"
Liu Xiangjun said: "In the future, our industry will rely on the leadership of Mr. Mo. ”
Mo Fan smiled: "Don't dare to be, let's make progress together!"
The two talked nonsense and looked very familiar. Liu Xiangjun rambled a few more words, and then said as if he suddenly remembered: "Oh, I forgot to introduce to you, this is my sister Liu Yaqi." ”
The woman had been standing behind Liu Xiangjun, and only then did she take a step forward, stretched out her hand to Mo Fan with a smile, and said, "Mr. Mo, hello." ”
After hearing only these four words, Mo Fan felt a burst of crispness, and the cold hairs on the back of his neck seemed to stand up. This is different from the deliberate snorting of the happy woman, the voice is smooth and not pretentious, but full of temptation.
Look at this Liu Yaqi again, although she is wearing a very ordinary OL outfit, she shows her excellent figure well. Compared with her figure, her appearance is not very outstanding, but with a smile on the corner of her mouth and affection on her eyebrows, she really has a bit of seductive power. And the pair of black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose and the oblique ponytail hanging down her chest all add a strange attraction to her.
Among the women Mo Fan has seen, if you talk about the beauty of her appearance, Lin Ruoxi is the most, even the most picky person can't find the slightest flaw in her, it seems that her appearance is to interpret the meaning of the word "perfect". But she makes people stay away, and she doesn't make people have any other reverie at all.
It can be said that if you just see Liu Yaqi's photos, you can probably only attribute it to ordinary beauties, and perhaps some picky people will question the appropriateness of putting the word "beauty" on her. But if you see Liu Yaqi herself, see her smile, and listen to her voice, I'm afraid that any normal man will lose the courage to question.
At this moment, Mo Fan couldn't help but think that the woman who really brought disaster to the country and the people was definitely not like Lin Ruoxi, but should be the one in front of him. The so-called natural charm is like this.
Liu Yaqi's outstretched hand stopped in the air, and seeing that Mo Fan was distracted and did not react, he called out again: "Mr. Mo?"
"Oh, hello. As if he had just come back to his senses, Mo Fan stretched out his hand and shook Liu Yaqi's hand, and the words "soft as boneless" suddenly appeared in his heart. Yu Guang paid attention to Liu Xiangjun for a while, and saw that he really looked proud.
It's no wonder that Liu Xiangjun is proud, this Liu Yaqi is indeed a stunner. Mo Fan never prides himself on being a moral gentleman, but he thinks that his self-control ability is still very strong. But when I saw this woman, I couldn't help but have some associations.
Liu Yaqi chuckled and said, "Listen to my brother, Mr. Mo is very amazing, please take care of us more in the future." ”
Mo Fan smiled and said, "Help each other, what's not to take care of." ”
Liu Xiangjun said: "Mr. Mo, then let's go first, and we will have a chance to get together again in the future." ”
Mo Fan waved goodbye to the two, looking at their backs as they left, a sneer hung on the corner of his mouth.
I'll just say, you have to do a full set of plays, you have to be ugly, how can you do it without a woman, it turns out that you are waiting here.
The timing of these two shows up is really good. In the hall of the main building before, he must have met with Lu Xiaorong. Although Liu Xiangjun has never dealt with Lu Xiaorong, it is impossible for this guy not to know Lu Xiaorong. And now Lu Xiaorong and Ji Xiaoying are walking this way, and they saw the scene just now.
I have to say that they played really beautifully.
If you want to whole a man, the best way is to expose his underground relationship, the eldest woman and the third face to face, and the man will be embarrassed to keep him, just like being roasted on the fire, nine times out of ten there is only one rotten life left.
And in this kind of thing, of course, it is not only men who are affected.
Mo Fan believes that this is just the beginning, so the reason why Liu Yaqi said hello and left, one is to leave without a trace, and the other is to arouse people's appetite - the general view is that men are so virtuous. If this woman shows up and disappears, it will be hell. In this plan, Lu Xiaorong will be the injured woman. If they do succeed, it will be much more serious than the last time they were assisted in the investigation of the incident.
