Chapter 019: A Person's Day
Xu Shuang looked at the sky and asked, "Chen Chi, do you still have to cook by yourself when you go back?"
"Yes," Chen Chi said with a smile, "I'm very fast, it won't take long." Frostfall, if you come over to play, I can make a table of dishes for you to eat in half an hour. How's it going, are you excited?
"Are you so powerful?" Xu Shuangchuan was a little unconvinced, the people around her were actually better at cooking than her.
"Of course," Chen Chi teased, "but to be clear in advance, my table is not big. ”
Xu Shuangchuan was suddenly amused, and somehow, he was relieved: "After a while, I'll arrange time." Well, I'll make a strategy for the next few days. ”
"What kind of strategy?" Chen Chi immediately said happily, "Where do you want to go, just tell me directly, I am the strategy." ”
Xu Shuangchuan found that she always laughed when she talked to Chen Chi.
"I'm used to going to a place to get a general idea before I go there, otherwise I won't know what I'm playing after I play. She explained with a smile.
"Good habits. Chen Chi praised, burying himself by the way, "I have never had such a habit, I always run straight over, and the impressive places will be well understood afterwards." Some places may be really nice, but I don't have an eye for it, so I'll just walk through it. ”
"You're doing a good job, too. Xu Shuangchuan said sincerely, boys have less concerns about going out than girls, and it is indeed easier to go.
"Frostfall, I'll give you some URLs when I go back, an introduction to the city on my side, what do you think after reading it, just tell me, I'll help you make a strategy together. Chen Chi lifted the building with high interest.
After Xu Shuangchuan chatted with him for three or four minutes, she hung up the phone, and walked a few steps with a shopping bag, only then did she realize that she was puzzled, she didn't plan to go to Chen Chi in the first place, why did she talk to Chen Chi on the phone, and it became a tone that it was okay to go on a trip, and then she was about to start doing a strategy?
Xu Shuangchuan secretly sighed that she was not assertive, probably when she heard in the apartment that the neighbors all had holiday arrangements, her heart was about to move. Chen Chi invited so many times in succession, and she went there once generously, and recognizing his place was also the way of friends.
She is not very bold, she is in a foreign land, and her parents' hearts are hanging on her, so she acts as cautiously as possible, and she usually travels in a group when she travels far away.
Xu Shuangchuan went all the way back, worrying about a small matter, Chen Chi would give her a box of chocolates as a gift every time she came, what should she give him when she went, she didn't seem to have any prestigious souvenirs here.
She entered the apartment and glanced towards the kitchen, it was dinner time, and there were two or three people in the kitchen, which sounded quite jubilant, and Xian's voice was among them. So she went straight to her room.
The kitchen in the apartment is communal, with two rows of stoves installed on the central countertop, a total of eight stoves, surrounded by a wall of worktops and refrigerators. It's okay for a few people to cook together, but the roommates are very conscious, and if there are more than three people in the kitchen, if they are not in a hurry, they will wait and cook at the wrong time, so as not to crowd everyone.
Three quarters of an hour later, Xu Shuangchuan closed the computer, took things like ham and canned fish to the kitchen, and put them in the refrigerator. The kitchen was empty, I don't know who was making coffee, and the smell was overflowing.
"I also had coffee at dinner. Xu Shuang muttered secretly, attracted by the fragrance. The yogurt pudding that had just been put in the refrigerator for less than two seconds was taken out by her, and she directly tore the package and dug it with a spoon.
After eating seven or eight bites, Xu Shuangchuan had never eaten it, and when she spread the toast on the plate and spread the jam, she had an idea in her heart, peeled two bananas she had just bought, threw them into the grinder to beat the mud, and poured the yogurt into it, and quickly stirred it well.
Xu Shuang lowered her head and sniffed, very satisfied, the milky fragrance mixed with the faint banana smell, and the rich coffee aroma around her, which made her homemade banana yogurt also attractive.
With great interest, she ran back to the room to open the cabinet and took out a blue and white porcelain bowl. She is very precious this bowl, this is just out of the country at that time, her mother heard that there are few bowls and chopsticks sold here, even ran several shopping malls and supermarkets, I don't know who listened to the flicker, has always been pay attention to the affordability of the mother bought a very expensive set of tableware, disassembled to take two pairs of chopsticks and two bowls, sent to her.
Her mother had no experience, so she sent it by sea, and these two pairs of dishes and chopsticks crossed the ocean for two months before they arrived in her hands, and the delicious chicken thighs, fried duck, and strange dried tofu were vacuum-packed and delicious, which was enough for Xu Shuangchuan to read the expiration date several times before daring to tear it open and eat.
Xu Shuangchuan complained at that time: "Mom, what are you giving me two bowls for? ”
"You use one for one, and if it is broken, it will be used. Usually they are stacked together and do not take up space. Her mother was taught like a three-year-old child.
Later, her father secretly revealed: "Shuangshuang, your mother wiped her tears when she hung up the phone, saying that you are a girl's house, running so far, and there is no place to put an extra bowl in the place you go, I don't know what kind of life you live alone." If anything, whether it's good or bad, you have to tell your parents. ”
"Dad, that's what I said, your associations are too rich. Xu Shuangchuan couldn't cry or laugh.
But since then, she has been very careful when she speaks in front of her parents, and she has tried her best to talk about good things, digesting and digesting her worries first, and trying not to let her parents be anxious at home.
After Xu Shuang's stomach slowly got used to bread and macaroni, she rarely used the T pot to cook rice once, so there were not many opportunities to use those two bowls, so she simply put them away. She still takes it home when she is ready to return home, so that the set of cutlery that her mother bought can be used again.
Xu Shuangchuan took the bowl back to the kitchen, and there was one more person in it, it was the beautiful boy Matthews she secretly admired.
He leaned against the counter, holding the tray in one hand and coffee in the other, and was about to sip with his head down. There was a frying pan on the stove in front of him, and a piece of butter was sizzling and melting.
"Hi. Xu Shuangchuan took the initiative to say hello.
"Hi. Matthews smiled.
Xu Shuangchuan specially surrounded the stove area in the middle, and went around the passage opposite him to the place where the grinder was placed.
"Xu, would you like a cup of coffee?" asked Matthews, politely with his coffee pot four or five steps away.
Xu Shuangchuan hurriedly shook her head and refused: "No, thank you, I have" She looked at the yogurt paste she made, and couldn't think of how to describe it for a while, so she had to laugh and laugh, "Yogurt." ”
