18. Chapter 18

Inside the ruined temple, the fire was blazing on the improvised stove, the small pot on top of it was gurgling, and there was a circle of clothes and a somewhat damp quilt hanging around it.

"Can this really be made into bean curd?" The little fat man tried his best to grind the leaves of the tree bean flower, and his mouth never stopped.

"Of course......" Xia Bilei, who was comfortably sitting with Qin Mao and resting, chatted with him and did not forget to reply to the little fat man for a word or two.

"I said you guys are too much, just me work alone, so come and talk to me......" The little fat man muttered dissatisfiedly, he knew that Sister Bilei and Ah Mao had little strength, and he had no opinion on how much work he worked, but he was still unhappy, obviously Sister Bi Lei had a better relationship with him, but these days he has been sticking to Ah Mao every day, the two of them often get together to whisper, he stopped as soon as he came, which made him a little sad, Sister Bi Lei actually had a little secret with Ah Mao and didn't tell him......

The little fat man's thoughts were written on his face directly, and Xia Bilei was a little helpless, just because he couldn't hide his thoughts, so he couldn't say many things.

"Crucian carp and tree bean flower, are you sure they are useful?" Qin Mao asked in a low voice, his pale face was getting darker and brighter because of injury and malnutrition, the time was too limited, it was impossible for him to experiment with ants and rats and the like, besides, Wu Er was a careful one, and it would not be good to find anything from the corpses of ants or rats.

"Well, it works, it's just that it might take a few more meals to be useful." Xia Bilei said with some uncertainty: "The problem now is that we have to find a way to make them eat it......"

"Don't worry......" Qin Mao's face showed sarcasm: "We don't have to think of a way, they will naturally come to rob it!" ”

Xia Bilei was silent, along the way, they all went to pick wild vegetables to cook soup, and they didn't drink less, and they didn't feel guilty about robbing children to eat at all.

"Okay, let's wait until the bean curd is made." Xia Bilei stood up and poured out the contents of the pot, and the water boiled by the green plants was also green, "Come, drink a bowl of medicine first to prevent wind and cold." ”

Ah Mao took the bowl, her low-hanging eyelashes covered the agitation in her heart, Xia Bilei insisted on going out, most of the reason was for him, in order to pick these herbs for treating cold and cough, it turned out that she still found ......

Everyone poured a big bowl of medicinal juice, and even the little fat man just frowned and drank it.

*****

"Wow, is this really a bean flower?" The little fat man looked at the green bean blossom in the pot in surprise, and his saliva was three thousand feet, "Sister Bilei, quickly grab a few pieces and eat them with me first." ”

The three of them ate a few pieces of tree bean curd, and Xia Bilei muttered: "Sure enough, the bean curd should be sweet, and it always feels strange if you put salt." ”

"It's weird, it's not weird at all." The little fat man was so anxious that he jumped to his feet by the hot bean curd, but his mouth couldn't stop.

"Ah Mao, do you think the bean curd should be sweet?" Xia Bilei turned her head and asked.

"I can do it all." Qin Mao is impartial.

"Hmph, I hate the grass on the wall the most." As a staunch sweet party who looks down on this kind of unprincipled and positionless person the most, Xia Bilei swallowed a big mouthful of bean curd angrily.

"Wait!" The little fat man suddenly remembered, "What about crucian carp, didn't we say that it should be used to stew bean curd?" ”

Xia Bilei's hand holding the bowl paused for a while, and then said casually: "Cook it now, you can eat bean curd first." ”

"I think I can wait and eat again." The little fat man put down the bowl in his hand with difficulty, "People haven't eaten meat for a long time, let alone fish." He salivated and looked at the fish, this crucian carp is so fat, Ah Mao must not be able to eat it all, he will definitely be able to get a bowl.

Fool, if you don't eat now, you won't have to eat. Xia Bilei shook her head, the little fat man really thought that she had forgotten the storage of crucian carp.

"I'll cook it." Qin Mao smiled faintly, and he firmly met Xia Bilei's hesitant gaze.

"I'll just come, you haven't cooked." Xia Bilei lowered her head to hide the complicated feelings in her eyes, this child, she didn't take care of him in vain, he didn't want her hands to be stained with human blood.

"I won't, you can teach me." Qin Mao said without refusal.

"Is it necessary to push around to make a fish soup?" The little fat man wondered, "Hurry up and cook, I'm hungry." ”

The crucian carp tree bean curd soup was finally boiled by Qin Mao, the green tree bean flower was as green as jade, and the snow-white fish meat was tumbling in the pot, and the fragrance emitted floated outside the broken temple.

Xia Bilei has a great sense of achievement, it seems that Ah Mao also has a talent for chefs, which she taught well!

"It turns out that the crucian carp will be so fragrant after it is burst first and then boiled in soup." The little fat man gathered in front of the pot, and his saliva almost fell into the pot, "Sister Bilei, can you drink soup?" ”

"No...... "Wuda and they haven't come back to die," Xia Bilei said slowly, "This crucian carp must be boiled out of milky white soup to be the most delicious." ”

After the soup boiled, it was simmered slowly, and there was no need for him for these things, Qin Mao closed his eyes in the corner to recuperate, and his side face was as beautiful as a painting. Xia Bilei looked up at him from time to time, she was still a little nervous, not like Ah Mao, no wonder the ancients often said that the battlefield is a man's business and a woman walks away or something, it seems that there is some truth, her psychological essence is really not strong enough.

"Sister Bilei, why are you staring at Ah Mao?" Could it be that Ah Mao's charm is better than fish soup?

"Oh, he's good-looking!" Xia Bilei said casually.

The little fat man was dissatisfied, and sure enough, Sister Bilei preferred Ah Mao, "I'm also good-looking, my grandmother said that I am blessed and good-looking, and it makes people happy when I see it, Sister Bilei might as well take a look at me more." ”

Xia Bilei silently glanced at his chubby face with a double chin, and said decisively, "I'd better watch the fish soup." ”

The little fat man was heartbroken, he couldn't compare to a pot of soup.

"Ahem......" Qin Mao straightened up, Xia Bilei froze, and her hands were a little stiff.

"I see that this soup is almost done, scoop some out first, and I'll try the taste." Qin Mao smiled and said that he had sharp ears and heard the sound of horses neighing early.

"I'll taste it, I'll taste it!" The little fat man couldn't wait to pick up the bowl.

"I'll try it!" Xia Bilei came back to her senses and slapped the little fat man's hand away: "Do you understand the principle of ladies first!" ”

It seems to be murderous, the little fat man is so frightened that he retracts his hand, what's wrong with Sister Bilei?

Green bean curd, white fish, bright color, attractive fragrance, Xia Bilei took a deep breath of perfume, picked up chopsticks to pick up the fish.

"I'm a patient, so I'll try it first." Qin Mao stretched out his hand, his eyes were firm and undeniable, as a man, he was not used to hiding behind women.

"Think beautifully! I'll try the taste first. "Sister Lin's body also wants to rob her? Xia Bilei quickly picked up a piece of fish meat and threw it into her mouth, with a satisfied expression on her face, "It's really delicious, although the ingredients are a little less, but the umami is boiled out, come, you can bring the bowl." ”

Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills, Xia Bilei, who saw the figure of Wuda out of the corner of her eye, looked more natural, this is a drama about her life and death, without NG, failure can only die...... Thinking of this, her eating movements became faster and faster, vividly expressing the appearance of a hungry child who couldn't wait for food.
