Chapter 440: An Unexpectedly Unexpected Man
"My lord! I'll take the young lady back. After the middle-aged woman saw Miss Zhou shaking Xia Duoduo's arm vigorously, she secretly wiped a handful of cold sweat and said in a low voice.
"It's okay, since they're all here, let's take a look here." Xia Duoduo gently touched the little girl's chubby face and smiled dotingly.
"Yes! My lord! The middle-aged woman stood aside with her hands down and let out a sigh of relief.
The reason why Xia Duoduo is like this is because the little girl is so cute, with a pair of big onyx-like eyes flickering and piercing, white teeth and red lips, and the two pigtails on the top of her head are flicked around on her head, which is somewhat similar to herself when she was a child.
On the other hand, it is because this little girl is Zhou Yi's granddaughter and Zhuge Nantian's granddaughter.
Xia Duoduo glanced at Zhou Min, who was hugging the little girl one side, and muttered in a low voice: "Sister Min, this is your grandniece, I want Zhou Yi's kid to honor you well when I go back." ”
"Ahem!"
Zhou Min, who was happily holding the little girl, changed his face sharply, and a mouthful of saliva did not squirt out.
She glanced at Xia Duoduo and said leisurely: "The speed of time is different, and now they are probably powerless." ”
“...... Isn't it time for human life to be extended to 200 years? Xia Duoduo asked Zhou Min puzzled.
"No, the longest-lived life expectancy is 213 years old, and normal people are still around 170 years old......" Zhou Min hugged the little girl tightly and glanced at the training ground in front of him: "This is still a leap in the overall lifespan of human beings after the study of Xingchenhua." ”
"That'...... What about my mom? The smile on Xia Duoduo's face froze, and she whispered to Zhou Min with a worried mood.
Zhou Min didn't answer, but changed the topic: "However, Wan Ning is Xiao Hao's own sister." ”
“......”
Xia Duoduo was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he understood Zhou Min's extraneous voice.
According to the natural lifespan, those old people have all passed away, unless they have been "refrigerated" or, like Zhou Min and the "Blue House", they have crossed the barrier of time and space. The reason why Qin Wanning has spanned a whole generation shows that it is not a natural product.
Even if Qin scientists were reactivated by "frozen" cells, Qin Hao's mother had long since passed away, and there was no possibility of natural production at all, so there was only one way to refrigerate and fuse the cells.
As for whether the zygote is fused, or is it two different cell clones that are copulated again? Production, unknown.
However, if the Federation does not produce it on a large scale, it can only be experimental, which shows that the disadvantages are too great, and it cannot be accepted by normal human beings both physically and psychologically.
Xia Duoduo thought of this, and looked at Qin Wanning on the left, only to see this girl smiling at those soldiers with a cheerful face, as if she was grateful for life.
Scold......
Xia Duoduo sighed in a low voice, and suddenly felt a little heavy in his heart.
"Let's go, let's go eat first."
Xia Duoduo glanced at Zhou Xiaoxiao, wanting to forget all these unpleasant things for the time being, and grabbed Wanning with his left hand and walked towards Tianya Hotel.
As soon as I stepped in, I smelled a burst of fragrance rushing towards me.
On a blue-gray stone table on the second floor, there are countless plates of beautifully prepared food.
At the foreground is a beautifully crafted celadon plate containing a five-finger-long peach blossom fish.
These delicate foods, soaked in a rosy red broth and soaked in peerless deliciousness, have a grassy aroma. It's fascinating and drooling.
Whole fish? It was cut into two large and small pieces, and there were five cuts from head to tail, so that the soup soaked in, and the fins were cleaned and only the tail remained.
It is like the authentic West Lake vinegar fish practice of Huwai Lake, a top restaurant in Yuhang County.
On the other side is a bronze casserole, in which the "grunt" is glowing with heat, and the heat is emitted through the only hole, and a rich smell of meat comes out.
"Dongpo meat!"
Zhou Min rubbed his hands excitedly and lifted the lid of the casserole, and red juices soaked out of the meat. One by one, the square pieces of meat trembled in the middle.
Fresh and fragrant, red and bright color, mellow and juicy. These gravy are soaked in the unique star-gazing grass of Hope Town, and the green and ruddy dots are dotted in between, and they are tight and elastic, like a square jelly.
It is Yuhang's representative masterpiece: West Lake vinegar fish and Dongpo meat.
Because of the problem of ingredients, it has been improved more or less according to local customs, but the meticulous production process is undoubtedly a unique Chinese delicacy.
"Aunt Duoduo, how did my mother do well?"
Miss Zhou--Zhou Xiaoxiao touched her little chin and asked Xia Duoduo in a milky voice.
"Well, the color and flavor are complete, and it is not a loss of Yuhang's famous dishes, very good!"
Xia Duoduo couldn't help but open his mouth to praise, while on the other side, Zhou Min was already sitting on the chair and feasting.
"It's good if Aunt Duoduo likes it." Peach blossoms appeared on Zhou Xiaoxiao's face, and then glanced at Qin Wanning, and her body involuntarily leaned over.
"Sister Wanning, I'm your number one fan, come and try it! My mother made it for me a few times, but it was delicious! However, this time, there is still 'meat' to eat! ”
After a while, the two girls of the same age, chattering and laughing in a low voice like larks, left Xia Duoduo and Zhou Min aside.
Xia Duoduo walked over to Zhou Min and smiled bitterly: "These little villains! ”
"Well, leave them alone... Come and taste this 'meat', fat but not greasy, very delicious! Zhou Min swallowed a mouthful of "Dongpo meat" violently, and after beating his chest hard, he urged Xia Duoduo.
"You eat slowly, and no one will rob you!" Xia Duoduo saw Zhou Min's embarrassed appearance, and felt funny in his heart, so he raised his hand and persuaded softly.
At this time, the middle-aged woman wearing an apron brought a pot of fragrant rice and put it on the table. Then he took three coarse porcelain bowls and served them to everyone.
"Xiaoxiao doesn't like to eat fragrant rice, and my mother will bring you fragrant rice cakes to eat in a while. Two adults, can the meals cooked by the concubines meet the appetite of adults? ”
"The food cooked by Sister-in-law Zhou is really a must in Yuhang, and it is rare to taste the peerless delicacy again today." Zhou Min took the rice and was full of praise.
"Sister-in-law Zhou's food is exquisite, full of color, flavor and flavor, which makes people have a great appetite." Xia Duoduo smiled at Sister-in-law Zhou and took the rice.
"My lord smiled, this place is far away from Yuhang, and the conditions are extremely difficult, please Haihan?"
After Sister-in-law Zhou served Xia Duoduo a meal, she saw that Qin Wanning was whispering to Zhou Xiaoxiao, and was stunned for a moment, but she didn't serve the meal.
Xia Duoduo glanced at it from the corner of his eye, and suddenly doubts appeared in his heart. I couldn't tell the doubts, but I didn't know how to say them clearly, so I had to calm down and pretend to eat.
"Sister-in-law Zhou can make a hearty meal, she is already a superb cook, and she makes use of local materials, which is not something that ordinary people can make, and please don't shirk Sister-in-law Zhou."
After Zhou Min finished speaking, he pulled a chopstick fragrant rice into his mouth, chewed it with a big mouthful, and didn't care about his image.
It can also be seen from this that Zhou Min has never regarded Sister-in-law Zhou as an outsider, perhaps Sister-in-law Zhou has been in the Zhou family for a long time. Xia Duoduo comforted himself in his heart, but the vigilance that surged in his heart did not let go.
"Wow! Sister-in-law Zhou, this 'Dongpo meat' you made is simply amazing! Perfect! ”
Zhou Min stretched out his chopsticks and added a bite of food, smacked his mouth a few times, couldn't help but praise it, and then used it
I added a piece of chopsticks, put it in Xia Duoduo's bowl, and snorted: "Try it, the craftsmanship of our Zhou family, don't skip eating!" ”
Xia Duoduo remembered Zhou Min's embarrassed appearance at Qin Hao's house during the meal, and now seeing that he was already so arrogant, he had not changed in the slightest.
It's still like this once when you don't want to eat or die, hey......
Xia Duoduo couldn't help but worry about Zhou Min's future.
However, this kind of fate has nothing to do with her, she has already remembered more important things, glanced at the two girls who were whispering with excitement out of the corner of her eye, and said with a smile to Sister-in-law Zhou; "Sister-in-law Zhou, do we have such delicious fish and meat here?"
"Back to my lord, there are fish. To the east of Hope Town, there is an ancient well in which peach blossom fish are produced. This is where the West Lake vinegar fish made for adults comes from, and as for the ingredients for Dongpo meat, there is no pork here, so it cannot be made with pork. However, a large star stone nearby produces a mushroom. The texture and taste of this mushroom is completely indistinguishable from pork, and this mushroom is called "meat mushroom" by the locals.
"And this kind of thing"? Xia Duoduo chuckled softly.
In the Earth Age Zone, only soybeans were the only products that could replace meat, and soybeans were made with lard or butter, and the finished product was called "vegetarian chicken!" ”
However, the "vegetarian chicken" is completely unable to achieve the taste and delicate texture of meat, and if necessary, it is also drizzled with sesame oil and vegetable oil, and layers of folds are processed to increase the rich taste. Even so, although it is recommended by vegetarians, it still can't satisfy the taste buds of those "foodies" who don't like you without meat.
"That's not right! Mushrooms are edible mushrooms, even if they don't need much oxygen, even if they are anaerobic varieties, they can't survive and reproduce in an absolute vacuum?! According to Xia Duoduo's consciousness, he had never heard of any kind of mushroom that could survive in a vacuum. And what the hell is the situation with that kind of mushroom that exists on Star Rock?! “
"Don't eat it yet!" Thinking of this, Xia Duoduo rushed to the backpack at the door of the room and took out a probe needle, inserted it into the mushroom in full view of everyone, and stared at the readings on it.
"Xia Duoduo, you stupid pig! If you don't want to eat, don't spoil the food! Did you know that many people are still starving? ”
Zhou Min roared at Xia Duoduo with the anger of a hungry food, and then pulled the "Dongpo meat" in front of Xia Duoduo over, and even poured the fragrant rice that Xia Duoduo hadn't eaten into his bowl.
However, after seeing Xia Duoduo's expression, she grabbed the empty bowl's hand and stopped in mid-air.
"Poisonous!"
Xia Duoduo popped out these two words from between his teeth and looked back at the sister-in-law Zhou.
"Back to the adult, the little one is damned?! Little ones really didn't know that this delicacy was poisonous! ”
The middle-aged woman knelt down towards Xia Duoduo and said loudly with a frightened face.
Xia Duoduo didn't pay attention to her, but changed to another test needle to test the plate of peach blossom fish.
It's just that this fish is not poisonous in the slightest, and it is extremely safe.
Was it just an accident or was it premeditated?
Xia Duoduo always had a unique feeling, as if there was an indescribable weirdness and imitation in his consciousness.
What's wrong?! Absolutely!
A depressed feeling welled up in Xia Duoduo's head, and she magically inserted the test needle that had detected the fish into another plate of "braised pork".
The needle, which didn't seem to be toxic at all, was dyed black and green in an instant!
Highly toxic!
