Chapter Seventy-One: Making Soup
Those who have not been hungry do not know the taste of fullness, those who have not been frozen do not know the taste of warmth, and those who have not suffered do not know the taste of sweetness. Those who have not worked the night shift www.biquge.info know the happy taste of sleeping easily, steadily and comfortably after the night shift!
Xiao Chen, who slept after the night shift, woke up in the quilt, stretched his waist, and sighed happily.
Thinking that he had called Xiao Ding and Tang Qiong to come to dinner today, he saw that the sun outside the window was already three or four o'clock in the afternoon. Xiao Chen didn't lie on the bed anymore, he got up, picked up the rubber band on the bedside table, pulled his long hair back casually, and walked out of the bedroom.
After washing, she rushed into the kitchen and got busy.
Speaking of which, Xiao Chen likes to cook, and she regards cooking as a kind of enjoyment. Xiao Chen especially likes to make soup, and Xiao Chen has liked it since Lao Xia was the boss.
Xiao Chen often thinks that when she holds a bowl of fragrant and steaming soup in front of you, can you imagine the combination of these numbers that were just a set of pan-good and even a little bloody?
Pig's trotters: 500 grams, white radish: 200 grams, wolfberry: 5--10 grams, ginger: two slices, rice wine: a little. How boring!
However, what if this is a dinner carefully prepared for some very important people in life (such as Lao Xia, such as Tang Qiong and Xiao Ding)?
When he came back this morning, Xiao Chen had already bought the ingredients at the community vegetable market. Now that everything is ready, just put it there and slowly simmer it in a purple clay pot.
Xiao Chen, who was busy with all this, brought a small basket of edamame to the living room, turned on the TV, and sat there peeling edamame while watching the TV. Huang Xiaoming and Liu Yifei's version of "The Condor Heroes" is being played on TV.
"Liu Yifei is so beautiful!" Xiao Chen watched, watched, and stayed there until the "Condor" hissed, and Xiao Chen suddenly found that he was still peeling edamame.
From time to time, she turned her head to look at the movement in the kitchen, wisps of heat were already rising above the purple clay pot, and the soup was about to boil! Xiao Chen thought to herself, maybe the pig's trotters and wolfberries in the purple clay pot were playing out a story of love and hatred! If she added white radish to it later, I wonder if this pot would be the same as in the TV series, and she would have to add joy and sorrow?
You see, it's also housework, and I, Xiao Chen, were able to make a "literary fan".
Just when Xiao Chen was thinking about it, she seemed to hear someone outside the door who seemed to be holding the key to open her door.
I can't be a burglar! Maybe I have been targeted by gangsters for such a long time! Xiao Chen, who thought about this, suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and she hurriedly grabbed her mobile phone in case she needed to call the police.
Don't scare yourself, maybe you heard it wrong. Xiao Chen got up and leaned towards the door, trying to calm himself.
I don't want to, the sound of opening the door not only did not stop, but also became more and more persistent, to the point that there was a sense of "the door does not open".
You can drive it, I'm insured!" Xiao Chen secretly congratulated himself on his wisdom while thinking of a strategy to deal with it. After thinking about it, I have arrived at the door.
She gently stretched out her head to look into the "cat's eye", and "frightened" stepped back sharply, shaking her head, it couldn't be her own eyes!
It turned out to be Lao Xia!
Xiao Chen settled down, and then looked outside, isn't it! She twisted the door to open the safe, and opened the door with a "brush": "You want to scare me to death!"
Lao Xia, who was muttering about why he couldn't open the door, was frightened by Xiao Chen. Then he cracked his mouth and smiled: "I originally wanted to surprise you, but I didn't expect it to scare both of us." ”
When Xiao Chen saw Lao Xia coming back, he was indescribably excited, but he pretended to be very angry: "I don't know how to study hard, until I know how to run home, come back when I come back, it's still mysterious, hum!" When Xiao Chen said the last word, he couldn't "pretend" anymore, and the corners of his mouth turned into a flower, and he couldn't hide it.
Lao Xia ignored Xiao Chen's "blame", stepped into the house, put down the bag in his hand, hugged Xiao Chen with both hands, looked down at her and said, "Why is your waist still so thin? ”
"I like my daughter. Xiao Chen leaned his head on Lao Xia's chest.
"Okay, then daughter!" Lao Xia said in a firm tone, amusing Xiao Chen.
"Whatever you say is what you say. After Xiao Chen finished speaking, he left Lao Xia's arms: "Sit down and rest, I called Tang Qiong and Xiao Ding to come to dinner at night, and I am preparing." ”
"I'm not at home, thanks to them taking care of you. Lao Xia said, followed Xiao Chen into the kitchen to help, and did not go to rest.
Braised pork ribs, steamed sea bass, loofah edamame, steamed eggs with shallots, garlic water spinach, when Lao Xia put these "artworks" in Xiao Chen's eyes on the table, Tang Qiong, Xiao Tang Dou, and Xiao Ding couldn't wait to sit around the table.
"There's also a private dish of my beauty. When Xiao Chen "watched" Lao Xia bring the "pig's trotters and wolfberry radish soup" that she had "boiled" for half an afternoon to the table, he proudly announced.
"It's a must! These are all your beauty's private dishes!" Xiao Ding was already "gearing up", he stood up "noisy", served a bowl to everyone, and then sat down, picked up what was in front of him, and took a sip of cool air.
"Uncle Ding, slow down, don't get hot. Xiao Tang Dou's "little adult" appearance made everyone laugh.
After laughing, a few people were about to pick up a bowl to drink soup, but Xiao Ding stopped him and said, "Don't drink it!"
Several people, including Xiao Tang Dou, all looked at Xiao Ding, who was frowning slightly, for some reason.
"What's the matter?, poisoned?" Tang Qiong joked with a smile.
"Isn't it delicious?" Xiao Chen was more nervous than anyone else, looking at Xiao Ding with blank eyes.
"It's so delicious!" said Ding as he slapped the table.
After Xiao Chen heard this, he breathed a long sigh of relief: "Then I'll rest assured." ”
"If you can put some salt!" added Xiao Ding.
