Chapter Twenty-Eight: I'm also good at cooking
When I got home, it was almost nine o'clock.
Li Tiannan sent him to the door and was about to go back directly, Li Le hurriedly grabbed him, "Don't be in such a hurry to go, go in and sit down, and leave me here for a meal at noon." You have come to me so many times, and every time you come and leave, do you feel embarrassed? ”
Hearing this, Li Tiannan also stopped, "Do you have to stay for lunch?" ”
"What do you say?"
Seeing Li Le's look of necessity, Li Tiannan had no choice but to nod, and then follow him in.
When they walked into the door, Liu Yunyao and Liu Mu were watching TV in the hall, and when they saw Li Le and Li Tiannan walking in, they said, "Have you had fun?" I still know how to come back! ”
These words made Li Le's footsteps pause, and then he hurriedly said with a haha: "Tiannan is eating here at noon today, I will go and ask Liu's mother to go to the street to buy some food, and I will cook it myself at noon."
After saying that, Li Le prepared to run to the kitchen.
"Mother Liu is cleaning upstairs, you tell me what you want to buy, I'll go with my mother later." I'm always bored in this house, and I just went out for a walk! ”
"Well, then you can watch and buy it yourself! Do you have any money? ”
"Then I'm not waiting for you to give me a tip!"
Hearing this, Li Le was also speechless for a while, he didn't say anything, hurry up and pay for it!
Liu Mu sat on the side and listened to the conversation between the two, and couldn't help but be happy. Seeing that Li Le handed over a thick stack at once, she opened her mouth and said, "Xiao Li, we have money on us, Yun Yao, this girl is joking with you, you put it away!"
After Liu Mu finished speaking, she saw Liu Yunyao snatching the money from Li Le's hand, "I didn't joke with him, he is a big money now, right?" Le Le! ”
This made Li Le quite embarrassed, and he didn't know how to speak.
Liu Mu said on the side at this time: "Yaoyao, don't make trouble, why do you want so much money to buy vegetables?"
"It's okay, you let her take it, and if you want to buy something else, just buy it!"
"Mom, you heard me, let's go out! Buy anything! Liu Yunyao pulled Liu Mu up as she spoke, and kicked at Li Le fiercely, making him quite depressed.
"Xiao Li, this girl likes to mess around, don't be like her, the two of us are out, you can rest at home!"
After Liu Yunyao's mother and daughter went out, Li Tiannan spoke, "My brother and sister seem to have a big temper today, don't you blame me for taking you out yesterday and not returning home at night?" ”
Li Le couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard the words, "I don't know, I said hello to her yesterday, and I didn't object at the time, who knows what happened to her today!" Hey, this woman's mind is quite difficult to understand! ”
"That's not the case in my family, usually gentle and considerate, but when she loses her temper, she doesn't care about her. So usually whenever I encounter her tantrums, I stay away! ”
When it comes to women, it seems that there are always endless topics to talk about between men. Before they knew it, the two had been talking for nearly an hour.
Feeling that it was almost the same, Li Tiannan changed the topic, "The last time you said that you came here to do something by yourself, were you preparing to do business by yourself?" ”
"Hmmm! I couldn't stay in school anyway, but I happened to be good at carving, so I wanted to do something in this business! ”
"You're talking about inkstones and nuclear carvings? If it's a business in this area, I can help you a little. ”
Li Le shook his head slightly, "I want to engage in jade, and I plan to go out after the year and go to Xinjiang to see Hetian jade." ”
"Hetian jade? Is there anything special about it? To run that far. Li Tiannan was a little puzzled by Li Le's thoughts, he felt that there were many people in the capital who did jade business, and there was no shortage of sales, so why did Li Le have to go to Xinjiang to do it.
Li Le also had no way to explain his reason to him, he had a prescient foresight and knew that he was going to increase prices wildly.
So after thinking about it for a while, he could only say to Li Tiannan: "You also know that Hetian jade is from Xinjiang, and if you want to get a large number of low-cost raw materials, you can only go there."
Li Tiannan believed this, because in his heart, only such a reason could prompt Li Le to run so far. After nodding slightly, Li Tiannan responded: "If that's the case, I won't be able to help much." If there's anything going on here in Kyoto, just tell me, and I'll do my best to help you if I can. ”
"There's really something to trouble you, I may go there alone, and it may be a long time before I come back, and my family will have to trouble you to help take care of it then. It's not that it's frequent, just when there's something they can't solve, you help! ”
"It's all trivial, if you don't say I'll do it!"
What else can Li Le say for such an answer, he can only silently express his gratitude in his heart.
When the two were chatting about the same, Liu Yunyao also came back with Liu's mother. Seeing that they were carrying large bags and small bags in their hands, Li Le quickly got up and went to pick them up.
"You guys rest, I'm going to get food!" Li Le, who took the bag, ran directly to the kitchen. And Li Tiannan also immediately got up and said, "I'm going to help him too!"
Seeing that the two of them were running to the kitchen, Liu Mu hurriedly shouted behind: "You are a guest, how can you get these, you come back to rest, we can get these!"
"It's okay! I'm used to it at home, too! ”
Listening to Li Tiannan's voice from afar, Liu's mother couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "What a good boy, you said that the boys are so sincere now!" Yaoyao, you have to learn to cook, girls not only have to go to the hall, but also to the kitchen. ”
When Liu Yunyao heard this, she couldn't help but feel depressed, she didn't believe that Li Tiannan could cook or something. People follow Li Le, I'm afraid they are afraid that it will be awkward to stay with their mother and daughter, so that's why it's like this.
Seeing her mother say this, she couldn't help but say, "Then I'll go to the kitchen to help."
At this moment, there is still one person in the kitchen, it is the nanny Liu Ma who has cleaned the upstairs cleaning. Seeing Li Le and Li Tiannan chatting there just now, Zhenghuan didn't disturb them, at this time, they just plugged in the rice cooker to cook rice, and it was one more serving.
Seeing Li Le running in with a bag, she was also stunned, and couldn't help asking, "Young Master, why did you come in?"
"I'll come in and eat! Isn't this noon coming, am I going to cook it myself? ”
"Then what's the matter, young master, you can get out quickly, just put these things here, and leave the rest to me!" Hearing Li Le say that she wanted to cook, Liu's mother immediately disagreed.
At this time, Li Tiannan also came in, and when he saw him come in, Li Le couldn't help asking: "Why did you run in too, didn't you let you rest in the living room?"
"What are you going to do with me alone! My brother and sister look a little wrong today, I'm afraid that even if I don't speak, I will be flustered by her eyes,......" Li Tiannan said as he spoke, and suddenly saw Li Le winking at him, and couldn't help asking, "Why are you blinking?" Into the sand? ”
Li Le was a little speechless when he heard this, because at this moment Liu Yunyao had already appeared behind him, but Li Tiannan didn't notice it at all. He couldn't help it, so he put his finger to his mouth again and gently "shhh
But Li Tiannan not only did not stop talking, but continued to say there, "What are you shhh I'm not wrong, I'm really afraid of my younger siblings! ……”
At this moment, Li Le didn't dare to speak anymore, because she saw Liu Yunyao glaring at him fiercely. And after Liu's mother picked up vegetables from the ground and got up, she saw Liu Yunyao at the door, and suddenly shouted: "Young grandma, why did you go into the kitchen, you all hurry up and go outside!"
"Young grandma?" Li Tiannan repeated it softly, and then suddenly reacted to who it was, his pupils shrank, and he glanced back secretly, then quickly grinned, and sat dumbly at Li Le, "Why didn't you tell me?" ”
But he developed very tragically, Li Le didn't seem to see it at all, and even lowered his head there to sort out the dishes in the bag.
But Liu Yunyao opened her mouth at this moment, "What, am I so terrible?" ”
"Nope! No! The younger siblings are virtuous, beautiful, kind, gentle and generous, and loved by everyone, how can it be terrible! Li Tiannan was a scoundrel at the moment, and immediately changed his words.
"Then how did I hear someone repeating my horror?"
"Did anyone say? You must have heard it wrong, if anyone dares to say that his brother and sister are terrible, you find him out, see if I don't kill him! Looking at Li Tiannan's serious face, Liu Yunyao was also provoked to laugh.
And Li Le was about to laugh when he heard Li Tiannan's words, and finally directly took the frying spoon to his head.
"Oh, why are you hitting me!"
"I said, can you stop lying with your eyes open? Say you're afraid of her, you're afraid of her, what's the big deal, I'm not afraid of her the same! "Li Le really can't stand Li Tiannan's way just now.
However, at this moment, Liu Yunyao opened her mouth to help Li Tiannan relieve the siege, "People are afraid of me, they respect me, what about you?" ”
"Why am I upsetting you again?"
"I'm messing with everything, Brother Tiannan, let's go! We went to the living room to rest and let him be here alone. ”
"Good! Just leave him here alone. Saying that, Li Tiannan turned around and made a silent expression at Li Le, and then followed out with a smile.
Now it's Li Le's turn to be depressed, but it's good that the two have established an alliance. Looking at Mama Liu, who was still busy there, Li Le pulled her up, and then said, "Mama Liu, you don't need to call the young master and young master in the future." I'm used to living a poor life, and I'm not as squeamish as you think. I'll cook this meal today, you go outside and rest, just wait for dinner. ”
"That's not good, no matter what life you lived before, I still have to call you young master, this can't be messed up. Dish ......"
"Alright! Alright! You can call it yourself, you can go out and rest quickly, and leave it to me today! Interrupting Liu's mother's words, Li Le directly forced her out slowly, and then closed the kitchen door.
"Young Master! Master! Mother Liu was locked out, and naturally she knocked on the door there with some reluctance.
Liu Yunyao shouted at her: "Mother Liu, let him do it himself today, you don't care!"
Hearing Liu Yunyao say this, Mother Liu also gave up after struggling for a while, and then began to prepare tea and fruits for them! In her heart, she has always been more respectful and humble.
At this moment, Li Le vented all his frustration on the dishes in the kitchen. The kitchen knife in the kitchen had been completely discarded by him, and a carrot was turning quickly in his hand with the cyan knife.
As the crumbs fell quickly onto the cutting board, a few minutes later, a carrot turned into a few cauliflowers.
Then winter melon, cucumber, fish, and all kinds of dishes were decomposed by him one by one, carving that can be carved, and shaping that can be shaped. It's like a skilled chef.
This meal is the most attentive meal made by Li Le, and it is also the most refreshing meal to make.
At the moment when the door was opened, Li Le also shouted outside: "Brother Nan, Mother Liu, hurry up and come over to serve the food, ready to eat!"
Hearing the shouting, the two of them also quickly got up and walked towards the kitchen. The moment they entered the kitchen, they were also dazzled by the eight exquisite dishes in front of them.
Li Tiannan really couldn't believe what he saw in front of him, the head and tail of the fish flew up to both sides intact, and the fish body in the middle was hollow, and the two sides were neat flower knives, and the fish meat was milky white. After adding a few pieces that look like tofu and carving them into oars and putting them on top of the fish, is this the rhythm of making a dragon boat?
There is also the soup, the whole soup bowl is completely carved with winter melon, and the edges surrounded by flowers and vines look very delicious and attractive with the bright green soup color. There is also a phoenix-like chicken, an old man carved with white radish and carrots fanning a charcoal stove, which is filled with potatoes and roast beef, and so on.
With the skill of carving alone, he is simply a chef-level character.
"Li Le, is this really your dish?"
"Yes, young master, this is incredible, isn't it?"
Seeing the surprised eyes of the two of them, Li Le also suddenly felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart, and this was what he wanted.
"Do you see anyone else in the kitchen?"
"No more!"
"That's fine, let's take it out, the food will be cold if you are stunned! I'm also very good at cooking. ”
Only then did the two come to their senses, and then carefully picked up a dish and walked out, as if they were afraid of spilling a little.
At the same time, Liu Mu and Liu Yunyao were also setting up tablecloths and chairs. Seeing the dishes in the hands of the two, they were also stunned for a while. Then Liu Yunyao couldn't help but run to the kitchen to take a look, only to see the exquisite and picturesque dishes, and suddenly looked at Li Le who was picking up the dishes and chopsticks strangely.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
"You made all these dishes?" Liu Yunyao asked first.
"Or else?"
"You don't have a fever, do you? A lunch, you make so many tricks, so complicated, this is not a hotel! ”
As soon as he heard this, Li Le almost vomited blood out of anger, "My aunt, if you weren't inexplicably angry with me, would I have put so much effort into making a meal?" This will be good, not only will it not be pleased, but it will have to be told by you. ”
Seeing Li Le's depressed face, Liu Yunyao's expression softened, "Okay! All right! It's me who blames you, and I can't make amends to you. As for why I'm angry, I'll talk to you when I'm done eating. ”
"Then you kiss me first!"
"Kick your nose in the face, don't you? Everyone is waiting outside, hurry up and bring the food out first! Seeing that Li Le was cheeky and wanted to kiss him by himself, Liu Yunyao also immediately straightened his face, and asked Li Le to obediently sneak out of the door with the dishes and chopsticks.
When all the dishes were put on the table, Liu's mother was about to leave, but was pulled by Li Le to sit down at the table. He doesn't have any concept of master and servant in his heart, everyone is equal, just a meal, and he cares too much about it.
But the moment they picked up the chopsticks, everyone was a little confused about where to put the chopsticks, because such a picturesque food made them a little unbearable to destroy.
"Eat! What are you still looking at? Seeing that everyone was looking at the dishes on the table with a look of embarrassment, Li Le couldn't help but be a little puzzled.
"It's so pretty, and it's not easy to start!" Hearing Li Tiannan's answer, Li Le had a ridiculous feeling in his heart, "What is it difficult to eat." Get! Let's drink a bowl of soup first! ”
As he spoke, Li Le stood up, picked up the soup spoon, and served them a bowl of winter melon meatball soup one by one. Looking at the enticing aromatic winter melon soup in their bowls, everyone took a spoon and took a sip.
In the entrance, a strong smell of meat and the smell of winter melon are mixed together, which immediately makes the winter have a warm taste.
"Young master, your skills are better than those hotel chefs!" Liu Ma was the first person who couldn't help but praise her. Then Liu Mu, Liu Yunyao, and Li Tiannan also appreciated.
Li Tiannan then suddenly slapped his forehead, "Look at my memory, Li Le, you go out with me, I still have a few jars of daughter red in the trunk, just one person and three altars, which were given by Xuhui." You and I will go and take it! ”
Thinking of the taste of her daughter's redness, Li Le also felt a little nostalgic, so he immediately got up and went out with Li Tiannan, and then came back with three jars of wine not long after.
Li Le put the two jars on the ground, while Li Tiannan directly opened the altar in his hand, "Come to aunt, brother and sister, Mother Liu, you all taste it, this is my friend's daughter Li Le's red." ”
After saying that, he poured a small cup for several people, and then filled the bowl directly for himself.
Liu's mother and Liu's mother are obviously people who have drunk liquor, and they can't help nodding and praising after taking a sip, while Liu Yunyao feels a little choked when she drinks liquor for the first time, and a red cloud burns on her face.
"Yaoyao, if you can't drink it, give it to me!" Seeing that she was not comfortable, Li Le also hurriedly persuaded her not to drink anymore.
Liu Yunyao nodded and handed the cup directly to Li Le, and then hurriedly took a sip of soup.
As everyone tasted it, they also had a clearer understanding of Li Le's cooking skills, not only the soup, the fresh and smooth fish, the crispy outside and tender inside, the fragrant and soft glutinous potato stew, etc., almost every dish has its own characteristics, and the taste is absolutely first-class.
