Chapter 37: The Temptation of Instant Noodles
When Zhong Yue returned home pushing Gu Qin's iron donkey, he was already half exhausted.
"Are you here to torture me?" Zhong Yue drank a glass of water and lay down on the table tiredly.
Gu Qin said with an embarrassed face: "I don't know how long it will take to get from the city to your house, I don't see how much oil is needed......
Facing such an unreliable woman, Zhong Yue also shook his head, "I'll go get you some gasoline." "People in the township who have three jumpers will basically have one or two barrels of gasoline.
"Oh, thanks. I want the ninety-seventh. ”
Zhong Yue's feet stopped, "A broken motorcycle, and you still need a ninety-seven? It's the same as a three-jumper, wouldn't it be enough to add a ninety-two?"
Gu Qin put the sketchpad aside and looked at the furniture that was still wrapped in old newspapers, "What kind of broken motorcycle? This is Harley, enough to buy hundreds of three-jumpers!"
"Just blow it. Ninety-seventh, it doesn't seem to be available in the county, why don't you ask your family to send it?"
"Don't. Anyway, it will take a few days to collect the wind, so I won't go back first. Gu Qin was holding a mountain of rough-edged paper, and the ink on it was covered over and over again, which was too cost-effective.
"Whatever you want. Zhong Yue had just taken two steps, and suddenly trotted back, "What do you mean?"
"What do you mean?"
"If you don't go back, where are you staying? There are no hotels in the township. ”
Gu Qin was stunned for a moment, "No hotel?"
"I'll take you home later. ”
"I snuck out......"
Zhong Yue was speechless, "What about the newspaper?
"The newspaper has been bought. The suspension is being rectified, and it is estimated that I, an intern reporter, have also lost it. Gu Qin looked twice, "Is there takeaway here?" I'm going to starve to death." Eh, why isn't there WiFi here?"
"I'm not married. Zhong Yue threw his schoolbag on the table and prepared to cook. I don't know how long I'm going to stay in this sudden trouble.
Gu Qin took out a bottle of water from his bag and took a sip, "It's WiFi, not wife, how did you get into Huizhou University in the college entrance examination?"
Zhong Yue tugged at the corners of his mouth, "I have one hundred and two English, and I only scored ten points in the listening test, do you have any opinions?" This can't be blamed on Zhong Yue, the teacher who taught them English in their class is a strange person with a thick Hokkien accent, which also caused them to learn dumb English, and they almost became half-deaf and half-mute English.
"It's a wonder. What are you going to do?"
"Cooking, do you still expect this rice to become rice by itself?"
Gu Qin said with some embarrassment: "Don't be too troublesome. ”
Zhong Yue took out a few packets of instant noodles from his school bag, "Then eat instant noodles." ”
"You person, I am polite, but you are so insincere!"
"Instant noodles are not sincere? Wait, you will evaluate after eating. ”
Zhong Yue arrived in the kitchen, ripped the instant noodles open, and the gas stove was watered.
"You usually live alone?"
"What's the problem?" Zhong Yue put the dough cake into the boiling water.
"You look like an ancient man. There is no TV at home, no mobile phone and no computer, it is a miracle that a person like you can survive in this era. ”
Zhong Yue smiled slightly, "Well, there's a radio over there." ”
"......" Gu Qin glanced at Zhong Yue, who was concentrating on the noodle pot, and suddenly fell into a trance, and withdrew his eyes, "You are really an ancient person." ”
She swiped her phone and clicked on the player.
"GnR's Don't Cry?"
Gu Qin was stunned for a moment, glanced at his phone, and then prelude, "Have you heard it?"
"There are some cassettes at home, which have been around for more than ten years, and I have long been rotten about them. ”
"You ancient man ......"
Cassette Gu Qin had naturally heard of it, but he had never used it. She glanced at Zhong Yue, "Hey, why did you change the pan?"
Zhong Yue glanced up, "It's good that you're in charge of eating." ”
He dripped some vegetable oil into the pot, squeezed the sauce packet into the pot, and slowly spread it on top of the iron pot. The instant noodles that were fished out were still a little hard, but Zhong Yue did it on purpose, the noodles were too soft, and they tasted like a lump of flour, and they were not chewy.
The gas stove turned to a low heat, and the drained instant noodles were spread on top of the sauce, and Zhong Yue quickly turned them with chopsticks. The noodles still with moisture were rattling in the pot, and the classic Don't Cry was on the side, making Gu Qin feel as if he had traveled back to the eighties. In some dimly lit kitchens, the sunlight shining through the exhaust fan, mixed with the fragrance of sauces, made Gu Qin's whole person feel comfortable.
The noodles are wrapped in sauce, and the color quickly changes from pale yellow to tan. The oil in Zhong Yue's other pot was also hot, the egg liquid was poured down, and it slowly spread out, and the fragrance immediately dispersed, Zhong Yue turned off the heat and closed the lid of the pot.
"Hey, the egg skin isn't cooked yet. ”
"When it's ripe, turn off the heat and you'll be old. He chopped some green onions, put them in the dry noodles, and no longer turned them with chopsticks.
When the lid of the pot was lifted, the egg liquid, which had not yet curdled, had indeed curdled and looked perfect. Zhong Yue rolled up the egg skin and put it on the cutting board, and there was a kitchen knife to cut it into shreds.
"Go, in the cupboard in the back, and get two plates. ”
Gu Qin, who was a little dazed, came back to his senses, obediently took two plates with blue and white on a white background, and put them aside, not daring to disturb Chef Zhong's creation.
Zhong Yue presented the dry noodles, sprinkled them with shredded eggs, drizzled them with a few drops of sesame oil, and said with a smile: "The instant noodles are ready." ”
Gu Qin's eyes lit up, "If you don't say that this is instant noodles, I suspect that this is a bowl of pasta." ”
"It's over. Zhong Yue took the noodles and walked to the hall, "I didn't have anything to eat at home before, I always ate instant noodles, and I was sick to my stomach, but then I thought about how to improve it, this is just one of them, eat it." ”
Gu Qin took the chopsticks and tasted them, and looked at Zhong Yue with some surprise, "It's ...... that is crispy."
"In the end, if you don't flip it, the bottom layer becomes crispy, how does it taste?"
Gu Qin nodded, she had never eaten such delicious instant noodles.
The sauce is placed in the noodle soup, far less rich than the noodles wrapped in this way, the loose noodles are very competitive in the mouth, and the tender egg skin shreds complement each other well.
"Zhong Yue, this noodle is so delicious. ”
Zhong Yue tasted it and said with a smile: "It's you who are too hungry." Eat it, and I'll send you back to the city when you're done. ”
"No, I've decided I'm going to stay here for a few more days. ”
"......" Zhong Yue swallowed his noodles, "Then where do you live?"
Gu Qin was stunned for a moment, and looked at Zhong Yue with some embarrassment, "You are here, can you eat and live?"
"Ahem. ”
Zhong Yue hurriedly tilted his head over and smoothed his breath, "Although we have met a few times before, and you have helped me a lot, it is not good after all......
"What's so bad?"
Zhong Yue lowered his head, finished eating noodles, and asked a little embarrassedly, "Aren't you afraid?"
Gu Qin's eyes flashed, "What are you afraid of?"
"When I didn't ask, but you're so big that you're defenseless?"
"Defend against what?"
"Wolf. ”
Click.
Gu Qin's fingers rang, "Taekwondo black belt three sections." ”
