Chapter 177: The First Waterloo in Two Lifetimes
The only thing to be thankful for is that considering that the other party is an elder, she didn't scold too ugly words.
Although these words were on her lips at the time, such as brutes and dog men, she finally held back and did not make an irreparable mistake.
What a blessing! Jiang Zhilian breathed a long sigh of relief.
Sure enough, you can't be too impulsive at any time, it's easy to make mistakes if you're impulsive, so remember to be cautious in your words and deeds in the future!
As soon as the person relaxes, he feels a churn in his stomach.
She ran to the corner, vomiting dizzily and almost fainting.
Liu Mei hurriedly ran over to help her pat her on the back, and asked eagerly, "Are you suffering from heat stroke?" How did you spit like this! ”
"It's only June, what kind of summer is it! "Jiang Zhilian held on to the root of the wall, and she was able to stand firmly.......
Qiao Ruiling came over with a bowl of water, and Liu Mei took it in her hand and handed it to Jiang Zhilian.
After Jiang Zhilian vomited all the food she ate at noon, she rinsed her mouth with slightly cool water, and then she felt more comfortable.
Liu Mei was still puzzled, "It's not heat stroke, could it be a gastrointestinal cold?" To be on the safe side, why don't you go to the clinic and see a doctor? ”
"No, it's not a big deal." Jiang Zhilian pulled her lips and smiled, "It's normal to eat with your brain, it's easy to vomit." ”
"......" Liu Mei was even more confused when she heard this, "Can you still eat with your brain?" How to eat? ”
"Just kidding, I'm choking on lunch." Jiang Zhilian said and walked towards the kitchen.
Qiao Ruiling couldn't resist her, so she had to go with her.
Liu Mei still had something to do, and she didn't stay long, so she left first.
In pursuit of speed, Jiang Zhilian did not cook dishes that took too much effort.
With a few ingredients in the kitchen, I simply made four dishes and one soup.
They are all vegetarian foods that are relatively easy to cook, so they were ready in half an hour.
Cold bitter gourd, hot and sour shredded potatoes, stir-fried yams, stir-fried asparagus with shredded mustard, and spinach soup.
The staple food was Qiao Ruiling's leftover sweet potato leaf cake in the morning, Jiang Zhilian took the cauldron and heated it up, and then served it to the table.
The three of them sat around the table, and the atmosphere was slightly awkward.
However, with Jiang Zhilian here, no matter how embarrassing the scene is, she has the confidence to stir up the situation and enjoy it.
"Uncle, you haven't eaten my food yet, have you? Hurry up and try it to see how it tastes, if it suits your taste? In a hurry, I just made the simplest home-cooked food. Another day, I'll make you a few more delicious dishes, and I'll make sure you eat it once and think about it every day. ”
Meng Guohui was on a long journey, hungry, and didn't care about eating, so he took a big bite of sweet potato leaf cake first.
Without waiting for Jiang Zhilian to finish speaking, he finished eating a large cake in two or three bites.
Jiang Zhilian: "......"
Isn't her food fragrant? Why do you only nibble on bread?
After watching Meng Guohui gobble up three huge sweet potato leaf cakes, she silently scooped a bowl of soup for him, "Uncle, eat slowly, don't choke, drink some soup smoothly." ”
Meng Guohui picked up the soup bowl, poured it down, and went straight to the bottom.
Seeing this, Jiang Zhilian obediently added another bowl to Meng Guohui.
With something in his stomach and less hungry, Meng Guohui slowed down his eating.
He looked at Qiao Ruiling, his voice was full of roughness, but it was gentle, "The cake still tastes like before, it's so delicious!" When I'm away from home, I think about this. ”
Jiang Zhilian pursed her lips, and when she saw the newlywed husband and wife who had been separated for a long time, her eyes were full of affection, and she suddenly felt that she was stuffed with dog food.
She stared at the chopsticks in her hand for a few seconds, not knowing whether to eat the meal or not.
If you don't do it, you're going to have indigestion again after eating......
Qiao Ruiling smiled slightly, her eyebrows and eyes were more gentle than usual.
She pushed a few plates of vegetables in front of Meng Guohui and persuaded: "Eat more, Lianwa's craftsmanship is very good." ”
Meng Guohui nodded, took a bite of bitter gourd, and then commented: "Cut it too thinly, put less garlic, and vinegar is a little sour." ”
Jiang Zhilian: "......"
Qiao Ruiling pursed her lips and smiled, and explained to Jiang Zhilian, "I can't cut vegetables, I can't cut you so thinly, every time it's a thick slice." He's used to eating my dishes, and my taste has been ruined. ”
Jiang Zhilian didn't care too much, after all, everyone's tastes were different, and she smiled confidently: "Then try a few other dishes." ”
Meng Guohui took a large chopstick and put the hot and sour potato shreds in his mouth, chewed for a long time before swallowing, and his expression became a little indescribable.
Jiang Zhilian: "What? Not tasty? ”
What's wrong again?
Meng Guohui opened his mouth with a serious face, "The potatoes are still stewed and delicious, and they can't be swallowed when they are eaten raw." ”
Jiang Zhilian gradually petrified.
This rough man is really picky when it comes to eating.
The taste and eating habits can be described as tricky!
Jiang Zhilian originally wanted to make an image remedy for the open-mouthed just now, but she didn't expect that she would mess up!
This time, without Qiao Ruiling explaining, she could guess the reason.
It must be that Qiao Ruiling is not very good at knife work, she can't cut shreds, and usually only chops potatoes into pieces and stews them in a big pot to eat.
And Meng Guohui probably doesn't like to eat sour dishes, even cold bitter gourd is too sour! It's no wonder that the sour and spicy shredded potatoes can match the taste.
The stir-fried yam is too light, the spinach soup is a bit salty, and only the stir-fried asparagus with shredded mustard is barely qualified.
Meng Guohui ate fried asparagus with shredded mustard, looked at Qiao Ruiling, and said lightly: "You pickled the mustard quite well this time, this year's asparagus is so tender!" ”
Jiang Zhilian's eyelids jumped, but this only good dish has nothing to do with her as a cook, just because the two main ingredients are originally very good?
A well-known special chef suffered his first Waterloo in two lifetimes.
Qiao Ruiling originally had a small appetite and couldn't eat much.
Jiang Zhilian was hit and had no appetite, and she didn't eat much.
Meng Guohui only ate the sweet potato leaf cake and fried asparagus with shredded mustard.
There are several other dishes, and more than half of them are left.
Jiang Zhilian was stunned, ready to get up and clean up the dishes and chopsticks.
At this time, Meng Guohui stopped her, "Girl, don't be in a hurry to clean up." You sit down for a while, and let's talk. ”
"Oh......" Jiang Zhilian sat up straight, waiting for the lecture.
Meng Guohui pondered for a moment and asked Qiao Ruiling, "Meng Qing wants to go to college?" ”
Qiao Ruiling was stunned for a moment, her expression was a little dazed, "He said that he doesn't like to study, he just wants to treat animals." ”
Meng Guohui looked serious, tilted his head, and looked at Jiang Zhilian silently. Obviously, he was waiting for her to answer.
Jiang Zhilian wasn't sure if she could discuss this matter with them without permission in Meng Qing's absence.
But since things have developed to this point, it is better to choose a day than to hit the day, and talk about the problem directly!
Perhaps, this is the best time.
"Yes, I think Meng Qing must be full of longing for college! There is no doubt about it. Jiang Zhilian first gave an affirmative answer, and then slowly explained: "Although Meng Qing didn't tell me clearly, he insisted on not going to university. I persuaded him, and he was still anxious with me. However, this did not change his true thoughts in his heart. For the time being, it is possible to deceive oneself, paralyze oneself, and even escape. But the longer it goes, the more painful it will become, and it will become a lifelong regret. ”
"Why didn't he go? Because I? Meng Guohui's gaze still swept to Qiao Ruiling first, and then moved to Jiang Zhilian's body.
Seeing Qiao Ruiling lowered her head, closed her lips tightly, and didn't look like she wanted to speak.
Jiang Zhilian sighed lightly and opened her mouth, "Yes, I'm afraid that you will come back suddenly and beat people like before." He was too thin as a child to protect anyone. Now that she has grown up, she definitely wants to protect her mother every step of the way, and no longer let her be wronged and bullied. ”
Qiao Ruiling's eyes suddenly turned red, she stirred her fingers, trying her best to endure and not let herself cry.
Meng Guohui's hand on the table unconsciously clenched into a fist, and the bone joints were slightly white.
There was an oppressive silence in the house, and the little yellow cat of the family walked in the yard, occasionally glancing at the hall or two, and meowing a few times.
Jiang Zhilian was silent for a moment and continued: "So Meng Qing never goes far away, and he generally won't go to places where he can't come back within three days. ”
Meng Guohui suddenly remembered what Jiang Zhilian had just said when he yelled at him, and frowned and asked eagerly, "What do you mean when you say that he was born and died outside?" ”
Qiao Ruiling also raised her head at this time, staring at Jiang Zhilian with her bloodshot eyes for a moment.
As a mother, she knows her son.
She could guess where Meng Qing had gone, but she still wanted a definite answer.
