Chapter 99 Vegetable Market

Saturday.

The coolness of the morning was quickly chased away by the warm sun, which shone through the window and at the foot of my bed, and in a short time, my feet were warmed and 100% comfortable. I wrapped myself in a plush blanket and felt like my body was about to become one with the mattress, not separate. On such a beautiful Saturday morning, normal people generally don't want to get up, and just want to sink deeper and deeper into the bed.

The peaceful morning was shattered by a hurried bell - the alarm on the bedside table went off, and I rubbed my eyes, stretched sleepily, and looked at the time on the alarm clock—8 o'clock sharp. Oh my God, how can I ever get up on Saturdays and Sundays? I really have to admire my perseverance, why do you say that? Because today is a special day, Aunt Qiu has received special permission from the attending physician because her condition has improved, and she can go home for a day. And I also promised Qiu Wenchao to have dinner with them at noon, and planned to make Aunt Qiu's favorite sweet and sour fish to make her happy.

Now it's just the right time, it's time to get up and buy groceries. I suddenly found that I had a sacred mission on my shoulders, just like the hundreds of millions of Chinese aunts in this land, and today I am like them, to complete a mission to solve the problem of food and clothing, that is, what to eat for lunch?

Aunt Qiu's favorite sweet and sour fish must be my main dish, last night I practiced my hands, and found that sweet and sour fish is more difficult to make than I imagined, although the tutorial on the notes seems simple, but the details are not recorded enough, such as the heat aspect, the ratio of sauce and water, etc. Last night, my dad tried my sweet and sour fish, and after chewing it in his mouth for a long time, his facial expression became a little strange, and it took two minutes before he spit out an intriguing sentence: Why does this fish have no bones? I can only say embarrassedly, how can there be fresh fish in the middle of the night, I found two pieces of pork in the refrigerator, and when the fish was made.

Dad sighed deeply and said to me, "That's chicken ......" and said with a worried face.

In addition to sweet and sour fish, what else do you want to cook? At this moment, my mind was running fast thinking about Qiu Wenchao's favorite dish, Coke chicken wings? Boiled beef? And sand ginger chicken! I thought of a lot of delicious dishes at once, and my saliva flowed. But when I turned my head, I realized that something was wrong...... Why should I wonder what Qiu Wenchao likes to eat? Really, why do you subconsciously still regard him as your boyfriend? He's already his ex, so what's the reason to worry about his likes and dislikes? I really don't know what I'm thinking! If you let Maruko know, you should say that my brain is "Watt", which probably means that my brain is in water (Maruko's mother is Shanghainese, and Watt is Shanghainese).

Just as I was thinking about it, suddenly a phone call scared my body, and when I picked it up, I found that it was Qiu Wenchao, and I hurriedly answered it, "Hey? Wen Chao, I was about to call you......"

Before I finished speaking, an unpleasant voice came from the other end of the phone: "Yo, what are you looking for my super super?" ”

As soon as you hear this voice, you will know who it is, isn't it that Dr. Zhuang! Why does he always answer Qiu Wenchao's calls? Does he have this fetish? It's really strange, when I was with Qiu Wenchao before, there was no one like him who held Qiu Wenchao's mobile phone 24 hours a day (unconsciously I compared it to Dr. Zhuang, and it was quite scary to think about it later)

Sometimes I wonder if Dr. Chong has some of the qualities of a woman. For example, suspicious? Careful eye? Eat one's heart out? Insecure? I think there are factors to consider, is it that when two men are together, one of them will play a more feminine role? And when two women are together, one of them will be more masculine. Both of these conditions are often revealed in real life as well.

Suddenly felt that he was far away, so he had to return to the topic and said to Dr. Zhuang: "Please hand over the phone to Qiu Wenchao, I have something to tell him." ”

"Just tell me something, and I'll help you convey it." The other party's tone was a little arrogant, and I really didn't understand why Dr. Zhuang had such an attitude towards me, and I suddenly realized that human beings are always on high alert against their current predecessors, and this happens to both men and women.

So as not to have another conflict with him, after all, we have to eat together at noon, I don't want to look at his black face for a good meal, so I had to say to him in a calm tone: "Okay, then you can help me ask him, is it just the four of us who are eating at noon today?" What do you want to eat? Let me prepare. ”

Unexpectedly, Dr. Zhuang did not hesitate for a moment and replied, "Seven." ”

Six? I took out my fingers and counted, I, Qiu Wenchao and Aunt Qiu, Dr. Zhuang, are there only four of them? Who will be the extra three people?

"Did you call someone else?" I asked curiously.

"You'll know then, I won't spoil it in advance!"

When Dr. Zhuang said this, my appetite was immediately suspended, and I asked anxiously, "If you don't tell me who I am, how can I buy vegetables?" I don't know what you like to eat! ”

"You can just do what Aunt Qiu likes to eat, don't worry about us. That's it, there's still something to do! As soon as he said that, he let out his nose and hung up the phone.

I shook the phone and scolded Qiu Wenchao: Why don't you keep your phone around? I'm always being answered by this dead sissy, can I still have a good chat in the future? After a long time and a little bit of wasted time, I quickly changed my clothes and went to the mall to buy groceries.

When I came to the mall and saw all kinds of vegetables and meat, I was dumbfounded, except that I knew that I wanted to buy fish, I didn't know how to buy at all, I didn't know how to pick and buy, and hurriedly called the balls for help, the guy was startled and said: "You are a person who can't even tell the difference between pumpkin and papaya, and you dare to go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables?" Fool me? Come back quickly, don't be slaughtered as a piglet. ”

"I'm not kidding, I'm serious, I'm going to cook for Aunt Qiu at noon!" I hurriedly explained to her what happened at noon, and she laughed even more when she heard it, as if my cooking was the biggest joke in the world. Maruko looked down on me so much, even I was quite surprised, remembering my father's worried application in the morning, I couldn't help but ask myself: am I really the legendary kitchen nemesis? I was helpless...... No, have faith in yourself!

Then I picked up my phone, Baidu several home-cooked recipes, and after choosing a few, I began to choose the ingredients. As a Libra, my innate difficulty in choosing has flareed up again, I don't know how to choose fresh meat, and I don't know how much to buy. But witty as me, I immediately asked an aunt who came to buy vegetables on the spot, and when I saw that I was so humble and eager to learn, I sighed that my daughter was not as good as me, and at the same time taught me how to pick vegetables.

For a moment, this warm-hearted aunt reminded me of my mother. When I was three years old, my mother left, and my father, who was responsible for raising me as a mother, had the tenderness of a mother and the tenacity of a father, so even though I grew up in a single-parent family, I had no shortage of care. When my aunt patiently taught me how to choose fresh meat and vegetables, I wondered if my mother would be so kind and kind if she was still around. It's a pity that I don't have any impression of my mother at all, and I can only see that smiling face from the photos of the past.

Thinking about it, I suddenly felt someone walking towards me, I subconsciously looked up and found that Ning Shaoling and Lu Yan were standing in front of me.

How did they meet again? Are these two my magnets?
