Chapter 14: A Sumptuous Dinner
Chapter 14: A Sumptuous Dinner
Many years later, what Xia Solstice will never forget is the scene of buying vegetables with him in the supermarket. She picked one up, turned around and wanted to ask him what he meant, he nodded slightly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, this thin temperament made her intoxicated.
I bought two large bags of ingredients at the supermarket, and Xia Solstice is going to show off his skills today.
She had come to Ruan Bin's apartment once, that is, when she checked him in before, and now she came with him, and it was the first time.
Nothing has changed in the apartment, he has lived for so long, there is no bits and pieces, as if he has just moved in.
"Mr. Ruan, are you still used to living here?"
"Yes."
"It's so clean, just like when I checked in." The white bed, the neat desk, and even the toothbrushing cups on the sink are all placed in its rightful place, impartial.
Ruan Bin smiled and took the bag to the kitchen, "Of course it is clean every day when the staff cleans, you are free, the kitchen is here." ”
Xia Zhi was a little surprised, "You're too clean, there's no trace of life at all, don't you think it's weird and scary?"
"Yes," Ruan Bin shook his shoulder indifferently, "I prefer to be simpler." ”
Look around the summer solstice, every place, every corner, it is really simple to the extreme, if it is her, it must not be possible, even if someone comes to clean it every day.
The kitchen was really never touched, and even the gas valve was turned off. The water in the water pipe is a little smelly, so it's good to put it for a while.
"Mr. Ruan, how do you solve it by eating every day?"
"Hotel ordering."
Xia Zhi began to prepare, and she found that he was really a person who couldn't live, and there was only water in the refrigerator, only water.
"Mr. Ruan, your refrigerator is the most personalized refrigerator I have ever seen."
"Ha, yes, then you have to thank me for opening your eyes."
“??” Xia Zhi despised his humor, "Fortunately, I even bought all the spices, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to do it." ”
Ruan Bin took off his blazer, pulled up the sleeves of his shirt, and said, "Say, what do you need me to do, now you are my leader." ”
This made Xia Zhi's heart ape again, at home, her father called her mother the leader, which made people feel numb.
Ruan Bin was washing her hands, seeing her in a daze, he directly reached out and flicked the water droplets on her face, "Hey, what do you want me to do, I don't know anything about cooking." ”
"Ah," the cold water made her wake up immediately, Xia Zhi's face turned red, she quickly turned her head, and by the way, she also turned the topic away, "I'll see??" Why don't you wash the rice first and steam the rice? ”
"Okay."
"Will you,"
Ruan Bin felt that he had agreed too quickly, and said hesitantly: "I think I'd better wash the vegetables, okay?"
"Okay."
Management is Ruan Bin's strength, but cooking is really not his strength, he is not even good at the most basic washing, washing and messing, eggplant is just a flush with water, and the fish head has no way to start.
In the end, Xia Zhi couldn't help it and said, "Mr. Ruan, I think you should go and take a rest, leave it to me here, at most half an hour, I promise to let you taste a delicious meal." ”
Ruan Bin nodded helplessly, he thought he might as well not make a mess in the kitchen.
He walked into the living room and turned on the TV, which was already playing the evening news, and it was already dark outside the window.
For a long time, he had imagined a picture of him sitting leisurely on the sofa resting with the busy figure of the hostess in the kitchen.
Just like at this moment, Xia Zhi lowered her head and cut vegetables, very skillfully, a strand of messy hair fell from her forehead, she wiped her hands, pinned her hair behind her ears, and continued to chop vegetables.
After a while, the rice cooker was steaming, wafting with the aroma of rice, and the fish head on the steamer was also fragrant, causing his mouth to water.
He couldn't help but say, "It's so fragrant, how long will it take to eat?"
"Ten minutes, I'll just fry another spicy chicken nuggets."
Ruan Bin couldn't wait to walk over, a vegetarian dish had already been prepared on the table, fried eggplant with sauce, "Is it just one dish?"
"Everything else is in the pot, why don't you take the dishes and chopsticks out."
"Okay." Ruan Bin went over to help and took the dishes and chopsticks, but he felt that he should wash them first after not using them for a long time, so he put the dishes and chopsticks in the sink to wash, which was a bit of a hurry.
Suddenly, with a "bang", a bowl slipped out of his hand and kissed the ground directly, and he instinctively crouched down to pick it up.
"Eh, don't move." Xia Zhi grabbed his hand and grabbed it very tightly, "Don't pick it up, be careful of scratching your hand, I'll just sweep it with a broom." ”
Looking at her neat and capable appearance, Ruan Bin felt a strange feeling in his heart, he involuntarily rubbed his fingers, his hands were a little greasy, which was stained by her hands.
Xia Zhi cleaned up the fragments of the bowl, and there was already a burst of tempting fragrance in the rice cooker, she took down the steamer and covered the rice, and the steamer was full of oily glutinous rice balls.
"What is this," Ruan Bin had never eaten this dish before, and it was the first time he had seen it.
"Prickly meatballs, our specialty." Xia Zhi used chopsticks to take them out one by one and put them on the plate, and said, "The time is too rushed, if the glutinous rice can be soaked overnight, it will be more glutinous and delicious." ”
After a while, the chopped pepper fish head was also out of the pot, and the steamed dish was the most convenient.
Ruan Bin took out the dishes and chopsticks, and came in to serve the dishes, and the plates were full of solid delicacies, which made people drool when they looked at it.
Soon, the pork ribs and corn were also out of the pot, and the last spicy chicken nugget was also completed, four dishes and one soup, meat and vegetarian, fish, meat and chicken, and local specialties, which could not be more beautiful.
Xia Zhi was more prescient, knowing that two people couldn't eat so many dishes, so the amount of each dish was not much, and even if it was left in the end, it wouldn't feel too wasteful, and it was relatively fast.
When the meal started, Ruan Bin couldn't wait to eat, nodding while eating, "It's delicious??" Well, yes, that's good?? It's so delicious??"
Xia Zhi is very proud, she is still very confident in cooking, and even her father, who is a chef, has praised her cooking.
"It's been a long time since I've done it, I'm afraid it's not going to be done well, just eat it if you like it."
Ruan Bin praised again and again, "No wonder the small restaurants you recommended to me are so delicious, and if you can pass your level, it means that the taste is good enough." Eh, what is the name of this hometown dish, it's delicious. ”
"Hairy meatballs."
"It's so delicious, I shouldn't be able to finish so much, keep it for me to eat as a supper."
Xia Zhi said with a smile, "Why don't you save it until tomorrow for breakfast, just heat up the microwave, eat so much at night, and then eat supper, I'm worried that your stomach can't stand it." ”
"It's okay, thank you, Xia Zhi, apart from my mother, you're the first person to cook specifically for me, really."
The summer solstice is simply full of joy, and my heart is sweeter than eating honey.
