In the early hours of the morning, the sky was dark and gloomy. When I stood on the ground and looked up, all I saw was a small patch of sky surrounded by tall buildings.

Soft and slender rain flew down from the sky and gently hit the tent of Huo Bai's food stall.

At this time, you can still faintly hear the sound of music coming from the square not far away. Today, because of the rain, only a few cars are speeding by, and the sound of wheels rubbing against the ground can be heard occasionally.

"What do you want to eat?" two figures, a man and a woman, walked out of the darkness, and the man walking outside held an umbrella and looked down to ask a petite woman wearing a dark men's coat on the side.

The petite woman tightened her coat and thought for a moment, her voice sounding tired, "I want to eat something...... Hot, huh...... Very hot kind. ”

"Malatang?"

The woman shook her head, "No, you have to choose your own dishes, I'm so sleepy." ”

The man tilted his umbrella to her side, "So, hot pot?"

"Poof~ Are you stupid, right? Where did the food stall come from...... "The woman laughed suddenly, and the tiredness in her voice suddenly dissipated.

The woman looked up at the umbrella that was almost completely on her side, and reached out to push the man, "Why don't you support yourself, what if you catch a cold?"

"I'm fine. I'm not as squeamish as you, and I'm going to die if I take medicine when I'm sick. ”

"Hmph!" the woman tilted her head away from the man.

When the man saw it, he hurriedly apologized, "I was wrong, I was wrong." ”

"What's wrong?" the woman stopped and turned to look at the man.

"I shouldn't have called you squeamish. The man also stopped and said honestly.

"Stupid. ”

The woman threw down these two words and continued to walk in the direction of Huo Bai's food stall in a huff.

"Well, I'm stupid, super stupid, don't be angry, okay?" The man hurriedly followed and put an umbrella on top of the woman's head to make sure she didn't get a little rain.

Apparently he hadn't reacted to the woman's anger, not that he said she was squeamish, but that he didn't care about his own body.

Without a word, the two of them had already walked into Huo Bai's food stall, and the man put away his umbrella and turned his head to ask the woman who was still in a little mood.

"What do you want to eat?"

The woman shrunk herself into a man's wide coat, like a child stealing adult clothes, and said in a sullen voice: "It's annoying, you look at it!"

The man smiled good-naturedly, turned his head and asked Huo Bai, "Boss, do you have mapo tofu at home?"

"Yes. ”

"Then have a mapo tofu, two bowls of rice and a tomato and egg soup. Don't chop green onions, ginger, garlic, chives, coriander and garlic sprouts, don't make tofu too spicy, pour the eggs in the soup into the pot after they are scattered, and don't peel the tomatoes. ”

The woman whispered over and gently pinched the man, and she whispered, "Why do you ask so much." ”

The man also lowered his head and whispered: "When are you not so picky, I don't have so many requirements." ”

The woman's face turned completely red under the cover of the man's coat, "Flim Tongue." ”

Huo Bai looked at the two couples who were showing affection as if no one was around, and smiled, "Go and sit inside and wait, it'll be fine for a while." ”

The man took the woman by the shoulders and walked into the tent with her.

After a while, the man lifted the curtain again and walked out, "Boss, is there boiled water?"

Huo Bai was cutting tomatoes, preparing to make tomato and egg soup first, "Yes, how many cups?"

When the man saw him put down the kitchen knife and wipe his hands, he hurriedly said, "Two glasses, the boss told me where the kettle is, and I can pour it myself." ”

Huo Bai thought about it, he nodded, and pointed to the hot water bottle on the shelf on the side, "The inside on the far left was only burned today, and the cup is on the table." ”

The man thanked him with a smile, poured water and left, Huo Bai turned around and continued to cut tomatoes.

Peeling the sliced tomatoes and setting them aside, he bent down and took out a large light-colored casserole from the box next to him and placed it on the stovetop.

Pour water and put the tomatoes on high heat and cover.

Huo Bai wiped his hands and began to prepare to make mapo tofu, a large piece of beef was chopped into foam, and the tofu was cut into even small pieces and placed on a plate on the side for later use.

Then set up a wok and heat the oil over high heat, pour the oil into it and stir-fry after the oil is warm.

Wait until the meat foam turns white, then add cooking wine, bean paste, tempeh, dried chili powder, soy sauce, salt and sugar and stir-fry until fragrant.

Huo Bai's bean paste and dried chili powder with tempeh are all made by himself, which tastes more fragrant.

After stir-frying, add the sliced tofu cubes, cover the stock and bring to a boil.

At this time, the lid of the casserole on the side trembled slightly, and the pot boiled.

Huo Bai stretched out his hand and took out two eggs and beat them into a bowl, added a little salt and beat them with chopsticks, after beating them, he opened the casserole lid and poured them from the edge, and then used chopsticks to pick a few times and adjust the flavor, and the tomato and egg soup was ready.

Layers of yellow eggs tumbled up and down in the oily and orange soup.

Turning off the fire, Huo Bai took a large white soup spoon and put it into the casserole, and put a heat insulation pad under the hot casserole and brought it into the tent.

When the woman saw Huo Bai coming in with a pot, she couldn't help but exclaim, "It's so fast." ”

Huo Bai put down the pot in his hand and turned around to go out to continue making mapo tofu, he tossed the tomato egg soup just long enough to boil the pot of tofu to boil.

Because of the bunch of requirements mentioned by the man before, after rolling away, you only need to season again, and thicken it with water starch and you're done.

Mapo tofu was served out, and two bowls of white rice were placed in a tray for the couple.

"Good ......" The woman who was drinking hot tomato and egg soup smelled a fragrance that made her saliva keep secreting. Originally, she worked overtime until this time, and she didn't feel hungry at all, but when she smelled the mapo tofu brought in by Huo Bai, her hunger came back, and she only felt that she was so hungry that her chest was close to her back, and she was so hungry that she couldn't wait to eat a cow.

After serving, Huo Bai lifted the curtain and walked out to clean up the stove.

Bright red tofu wrapped in minced meat and chili peppers was steaming hot and placed on the white table.

Mapo tofu has a striking color and an attractive fragrance, which is no less than a peerless beauty in the eyes of a pervert in the eyes of a woman who has worked overtime on a hungry stomach until now.

The man in the tent placed a bowl of white rice in front of the woman, "Eat it, you're hungry." ”

The woman touched her stomach and nodded, "I didn't think it just now, but now I think I can eat a cow!"

"After eating, I don't have enough to add more. ”

After drinking the soup in her hand, the woman picked up the spoon and gently took a spoonful from the bowl containing mapo tofu, and the spoon containing the tofu was carefully blown in front of the woman.

After blowing twice, the woman couldn't help but swallow, she tried to go up and take a bite, but it was so hot that tears appeared in the corners of her eyes.

As soon as the man saw her like this, he quickly put his hand to her mouth, "Spit it out, spit it out." ”

The woman shook her head vigorously, and she opened her mouth to sigh and stuff a mouthful of food into her mouth.

The rice was swallowed with the numb, spicy, salty, and hot tofu and meat foam.

A glass of warmed water was brought to the woman's mouth, "Take two sips, does it matter?" The man looked at the woman with a satisfied face and swallowed the tofu in her mouth.

"It doesn't matter. The woman took two sips of water and put it down, shaking her head as she scooped herself another spoonful of mapo tofu.

The man's brows were still furrowed when he heard her say this, and the woman smiled at him as she blew on the hot tofu in the spoon, "Don't frown, if you wrinkle again, you will look older than me." ”

"Do you know that you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry?"

The woman pouted, "I know, but my mother said that tofu is only delicious when it is hot~" Speaking of which, the woman came to the man's side with a malicious face, "Come~ah~ I'll feed you~"

The man looked at the bright smiling face of the woman who had not been seen for a long time and the tofu that reached his mouth, and swallowed it without thinking about it.

He took a slight sip of the tofu in his mouth and melted it, chewed it carefully and took two bites of spicy and spicy, chewing until the meat foam could still taste a taste of gravy, salty, fresh and hot, people couldn't help but take one bite after another.

The man smiled and nodded, "Well, what my wife said is right, tofu should be eaten while it is hot." ”

The woman withdrew her hand with a red face, "Go, who is your wife, we are not married......"

"Do you want to regret it? This can't work, we both have a private commitment for life, how can we regret it after eloping for so many years?"

The woman's face turned even redder, "Eat your meal!" she scooped a spoonful of tofu into the man's bowl.

The man picked up the bowl and ate all the tofu in the bowl with a relaxed smile, "I'm promoted immediately." ”

Suddenly, he looked up at the woman seriously.

The woman pinched the spoon and whispered, "Oh, so what......"

"I was promoted, and I met all the conditions that my father-in-law and mother-in-law said at that time. ”

"The money I saved in the past two years is enough for a down payment on a house and a car, and I, I can also give you a dream wedding. ”

The woman lowered her head, her shoulders shaking a little, "Hmm......"

The man put down the bowl in his hand and stood up a little helplessly, he touched the box that had been on his chest and squatted in front of the woman.

The woman leaned sideways, her hand being clutched tightly by the man.

The man's palms were sweaty, and I don't know if it was hot, or because of nervousness, or if it was spicy after eating too much mapo tofu.

He squatted in front of the woman and looked up at the woman's eyes that were gwinkling with tears, "I, I'm not a poor boy with nothing now, you, are you willing...... Marry me?"

After the man said this, he stared at the expression on the woman's face tightly, and he was suddenly a little afraid that the woman would not agree.

The woman forced a smile and tried to make a straight face, "Such a simple proposal, I don't even have a ring, I ......"

The man hurriedly took out the box that he had hidden for a long time from his chest, he held the woman's hand in one hand, and opened the box in his hand with the other hand a little awkwardly.

Inside the box is not a ring, but a necklace with a unique shape.

"I, I'm ......" The man stammered nervously, and a fine bead of sweat appeared on his head.

In the end, he tried to settle down before he said his words completely, "I'll wait for you to choose the ring together, can you accept this necklace?"

The woman looked at the necklace that shimmered in the light, and one couldn't help laughing, and she laughed and shed tears all over her face.

She leaned down and hugged the man tightly, "I do!"
