Chapter 18: Beef tendons and jaws
"How do I feel like you've been eating more than usual these days?" Song Pingguo silently appeared behind Lei Qiu, staring at her hand that was grabbing a rice shovel into the rice cooker, "Obviously you didn't go to filming, so you don't have any body to consume?" ”
"It's practice, practice." While Lei Qiu defended himself, he also didn't forget to add an extra bowl of rice before Song Pingguo turned off the rice cooker, "After all, I'm going to swallow mountains and rivers next." ”
After taking a bite of food, she remembered that something was wrong, and raised her head to correct herself: "Oh no, it's devouring heaven and earth." ”
"No, that's not the point, the point is ......" Song Pingguo covered her face tangledly, "The point is, although it's embarrassing to say this, I'm about to be eaten by you." ”
Raichu paused for a moment, and she swallowed the bite of food in her mouth with difficulty: "...... Don't I pay for food every month? ”
"You pay for the food of a normal human, but your amount of food must be replaced by at least three normal humans, which is still a conservative estimate."
"You mean I'm not a normal human." Raichu is aggrieved.
"I mean, either pay more or eat less."
“…… Will I be able to finish this bowl? ”
"Eat, eat, eat, it's all cooked anyway." Song Pingguo opened the refrigerator and took out a few jars, "No food, right?" Match this. ”
In addition to cooking, Song Pingguo's hobby in her spare time is also related to cooking. For example, in the drawer there is her own smoked beef jerky, which is a reserve snack for Raichu when he is hungry in the middle of the night. According to herself, it is summer, and if it is winter, there will be pickled radishes and pickled cabbage in the kitchen jar, and the balcony must be full of bacon sausages and ham, so that the whole family will be filled with the warmth of celebrating the New Year.
The jars she took out of the fridge were also filled with her homemade side dishes.
Lei Chu pulled over an empty bowl on the table, took some shredded ginger from the jar, and fished a cucumber from the jar, and then settled the bowl of rice with side dishes and handmade meat floss provided by Song Pingguo.
After the meal, Song Pingguo, Lei Qiu and Xu Ran had a rigorous discussion and research - is the amount of food the same as the body, the more you exercise, the better you improve?
The result of the discussion was: Yes.
After failing to argue with reason, Raichu began to rationalize the findings: "Isn't it just right to improve the point, what if there is more to eat at that time?" ”
"How much can you eat, you're filming, and you don't really have to eat so much." Song Pingguo stared at a certain jar in his hand that had been emptied by Lei Qiu, and thought in his heart whether he should replenish it in time according to his habits, or let it be so empty first according to Lei Qiu's storage strategy, "And...... And why aren't you fat? Why aren't you fat? ”
"How do I know why I'm not fat...... It's because it's filming! There are a lot of accidents, for example, the protagonist in the plot eats five bowls of rice, and I have to eat at least two bowls when I shoot, and then count, there is always one bowl, right? And then if it's NG...... Even if I did it all, I would eat a lot of food a day. Oh my God, it's so hard and challenging. ”
As he spoke, Raichu's face lit up with happiness and intoxicated anticipation.
In terms of eating, Lei Qiu and Gong Xiaoye's taste is similar, but there is one thing, since they are different.
Gong Xiao also eats something delicious, he just thinks it's something delicious and wants to have another one, Lei Qiu's first reaction when he eats something delicious is always "Waiter!" Bowl of rice! ”
Sometimes Song Pingguo brought a dish, and Lei Qiu couldn't wait to put a chopstick in his mouth, and then quickly picked up the bowl and ran to the kitchen, serving the meal before swallowing it.
"Gong Touer is a rich second generation, and I am a low-level working person." Raichu explained this, "Although it won't be too full now, this habit has long been formed, and it can't be broken." ”
Song Pingguo felt that what she said was very reasonable, and she didn't find a good reason to stop Lei Qiu from adding rice for the time being, no matter how she said that Lei Qiu always added rice, it was also a recognition of her cooking skills.
On the fifth day of Leiqiu's career as an unemployed vagrant, Gong Xiao also came to visit in person to talk about devouring heaven and earth.
In Song Pingguo's opinion, Gong Xiaoye and Lei Qiu are simply the two loveliest people in the world, no matter how many things she brings to the table, these two loyal fans will be swept away excitedly. However, judging from the amount of food eaten, Lei Chu is more cute than Gong Xiao for three bowls of rice.
Song Pingguo, who was strapped for cash, made use of the ready-made ingredients this time and made an apple pie with apples sent by Leiqiu's hometown and served it on the table.
"Actually, you really have to practice." Gong Xiao also used his two hands to pour the hot apple pie that had just come out of the oven back and forth, "You have to really eat most of the things." ”
"I'm not worried about that." Raichu looked at the steaming apple pie on his plate and restrained himself from reaching for it, "I'm worried about whether those things will be unpalatable." ”
"Don't worry, I've vetted all the companies that will provide food for this show, at least it's average, and there won't be anything so bad that you can't eat it."
"That's fine." Raichu took a bite of the apple pie and hissed, "Then I'll practice it well." ”
Song Pingguo's heart sank when she heard this.
She's going to practice hard now, so what was it before, can she eat it casually?
When it comes to drinking, the biggest problem that Raichu encounters is that he can't drink it anymore after filling his stomach full of wine.
In terms of eating, the biggest problem that Raichu encountered: eating something that was hard to chew for a long time, and his chin was sore.
There are a lot of things that are hard to chew, and beef tendon is one of them.
The last time she helped Aunt Sun handle the beef, Song Pingguo got a piece of beef as a thank you gift, and she took the part of the meat to the set and cooked it into beef curry, while the rest was stuffed in the corner of the refrigerator as a reserve food.
This part is the beef tendon.
Beef tendon is a delicious thing, slightly more expensive than beef in the same grade, everyone likes to buy beef with some beef tendon, but few people will buy beef tendon alone, in addition to the price, but also because beef tendon is indeed a very time-consuming thing.
However, the wisdom of human beings in eating is always infinite, every day to go out to sell box lunches and have no time to buy a slow cooker cup with beef tendon Song Pingguo, before going out, cut the beef tendon, put the seasoning in it, set the timer, and enter the door at night to see Lei Qiu squatting in the kitchen to steal food, which is very convenient.
Wherever Raichu ates, it's as if he's in front of the camera. She won't eat reluctantly, nor will she give people too much gobbling and ignore the feeling of taste and enjoyment, eating seems to be a competitive sport for her, people will feel excited when they see weightlifters adding weight to both sides of the pole, Song Pingguo also felt a storm in her heart when she saw Lei Qiu adding rice: how much more can she eat?
Just like now, Lei Qiu was holding a bowl of white rice with a pile of tips, and a bowl of beef tendon that had just been put out of the pot was placed on the small bench in front of him.
After eating a small half bowl of beef tendon, Raichu slowly put down his chopsticks and raised his hand to rub his chin.
"It's a lot of work...... she put another piece of beef tendon in her mouth, this time she chewed very slowly, and it took a long time to swallow the tendon as well.
"If you're willing to let it simmer for another half hour, it won't be so strenuous, Raichu-san."
"Practice, practice. What if a company that sells beef tendons looks for Gong Touer and wants to join the ranks of shooting advertisements? Lei Qiu quickly finished the remaining white rice, and laughed and played with Song Pingguo, "Tonight I have to study how to eat and shoot the best." ”
"Come on, what Gong Xiao wants is not to eat well, but to have an appetite and advertising." Song Pingguo leaned over and picked up the beef tendon on the small bench, "It's not easy to eat well, just find a good-looking one to shoot." ”
"Then you mean I'm not good-looking." Raichu is aggrieved.
"It's really a little worse than your peers, it's still good compared to ordinary people, don't be discouraged, quickly pack up and get ready to eat." Song Pingguo glanced at the bowl that Lei Qiu had placed in the pool, "Although you had a meal by yourself before I came back." ”
Living alone, cooking is the most distressing thing. Part of it is because of laziness or can't, and part of it is because of Song Pingguo, who has good cooking skills but is hindered by the amount of food, and many dishes can't be cooked.
She sometimes wants to indulge herself happily with white rice and braised pork, but often a pot of meat stewed out of her, she has to eat it alone for several days, and after eating it, it tastes like chewing wax, and she is reluctant to throw it away, turning eating into a kind of torture.
So Song Pingguo had no choice but to make something according to the remaining ingredients in the refrigerator, or divide it among the dishes prepared for the lunch box.
Since the addition of Lei Qiu and Xu Ran, Song Pingguo can not worry about not being able to handle the unfinished dishes - or not worrying about the unfinished dishes at all.
"I used to be a little full when I was cooking, but now I see you eating even more." Song Pingguo reluctantly put down her chopsticks and looked at Lei Qiu, "Those companies and restaurants are so lucky, with you shooting advertisements, they will definitely be sold on Taobao overnight." ”
"Then in order to thank you for your kindness to me, when you go back to open a restaurant in the future, you will set a table at the door for me, and I will eat for free for people passing by."
"No need, if you want to thank me for my kindness to you, go to the supermarket and help me buy two bags of rice to carry back."
