Chapter 242: Cooking

In the well-equipped kitchen, Xiao Yue put down the ingredients on the cutting board, and Chen Du watched her tie her apron and start to be busy, feeling very similar to her mother busy cooking before.

Chen Du felt a sense of happiness in his heart.

"You stay in the underworld all year round, can you cook?"

Xiao Yue heard Chen Du's voice behind him, and while picking vegetables very skillfully, he smiled and said: "Of course it will, in the underworld, living like a normal person in the mortal world is a treatment that can only be enjoyed by ghosts with status and status, I learned to cook for myself early on, this is actually a kind of nostalgia for the time of living people." ”

Chen Du said: "Okay, we live like normal living people, I'll go and light a fire for you." ”

"Hmm." Xiao Yue said heavily, very satisfied, as if this kind of scene had happened between them before.

The firewood and fluffy hay at the mouth of the stove are stacked one by one, all of which were prepared by the river god in the past, and because they are not really firewood in the yang world, they are still well preserved.

When Chen Du was a child, he burned this kind of earthen stove in his hometown in the countryside, first putting fluffy hay into the stove, then putting a few pieces of dry firewood into the pile on it, and then taking the flint placed on the stove and learning from the ancients to make fire.

Although it was the first time to use flint, Chen Du was unexpectedly skilled.

After the fire in the stove was burned, Xiao Yue was already washing the rice and putting it in the pot, putting the rice and water into the pot, covering the lid, and she went to cut the vegetables again, and the cutting board made a loud noise.

Chen Du, who was sitting at the stove, listened to Xiao Yue's movements, and enjoyed it very much, and recalled the scene when his mother was busy preparing dinner for the family in the kitchen when he was a child, how beautiful it was at that time.

"Chen Du, do you have a heavy taste?" Suddenly, Xiao Yue, who was busy chopping vegetables, heard a voice.

Chen Du stretched out his head to look at the cutting board, Xiao Yue turned his back to him, and turned his head slightly.

"It's okay, I'll eat whatever you make."

Xiao Yue laughed: "Okay, I'll make it salty, and you will have to eat it when the time comes." ”

Chen Du knew she was joking, just like a normal couple.

"You will be bad, and you should not eat salty food if I eat salty."

Xiao Yue didn't speak and continued to chop vegetables, with a bang.

Gradually, the rice in the pot gave off a fragrant aroma, and Chen Du's appetite appeared, but it was not the time to boil the pot.

Xiao Yue had already cut the vegetables, came to Chen Du's side, squatted down, one hand on his thigh, and the palm of his hand supported his chin.

She looked at the warm flames burning in the stove, and said to Chen Du like a little girl: "Chen Du, did you say that we were husband and wife before?" ”

Chen Du was stunned and looked down at Xiao Yue, her perfect cheeks were already filled with happiness.

"I think it's very likely that I've had this guess since those familiar feelings that have been gone for a long time suddenly appear in our minds, and now I'm even more confirmed."

When Xiao Yue heard this, she tilted her head and leaned on Chen Du's arms, and the firelight opposite reflected her face.

"Great, we have been separated for many years, and finally we recognize each other again, and we can already be regarded as old husbands and wives."

Her voice was very delicate and gentle, and Chen Du felt very comfortable listening to it.

He suddenly reached out and touched Xiao Yue's hot face, and asked a bad question: "Then you said that we, the old husband and wife, had children before?" ”

Xiao Yue raised his head, his eyes were full of shy joy, stared at Chen Du's smiling face and said, "How do I know, I don't know if you have this ability!" ”

Chen Du immediately wanted to show his majesty, boldly hugged her waist and legs, picked her up and walked out of the kitchen: "Then try it now, if you can give me a few children, it will not be in vain for us to be a husband and wife." ”

Xiao Yue immediately screamed and patted Chen Du's shoulder: "You are here, you are cooking, are you fast?" If it's not fast, the rice will be mushy if you don't pay attention to it. ”

Chen Du paused and said solemnly: "Of course I'm not happy. ”

Xiao Yue's cheeks flushed, and she whispered: "If you are not happy, just wait patiently, let's cook and eat first, it is not dark yet." ”

Chen Du looked out of the kitchen, and the sky was indeed still bright.

He put down Xiao Yue a little reluctantly, the other party smelled the smell in the pot, estimated that it was almost there, opened the lid of the pot and saw that it was almost cooked.

She immediately got busy, found a porcelain basin and a bamboo basket, and put the rice up and drained the water.

Taking advantage of the time to filter the water, she began to stir-fry slowly, and said to Chen Du: "It's time to stir-fry, go and burn the fire." ”

Chen Du didn't delay anything, returned to the stove and sat down, and continued to add firewood to the stove.

After a while, the sound of Zizi sounded in the pot, and Xiao Yue put in a bunch of washed and cut vegetables and began to stir-fry.

These are all underworld ingredients that can be stored for a long time, and their appearance and taste are similar to those of the yang.

Slowly, the aroma of stir-fried vegetables also wafted out, Chen Du smelled the smell, and looked up at Xiao Yue, who was concentrating on stir-frying vegetables, and once again confirmed 100% in his heart that they were husband and wife before.

"Fate is wonderful, I can't imagine that we will meet like this again, even if we can't remember what happened before." Chen Du was silently grateful in his heart.

Xiao Yue began to put up the fried vegetables, and glanced at Chen Du, who was looking at him stupidly: "What do you want?" ”

Chen Du coughed, lowered his head and continued to add firewood, and then said: "What do you think, after so many years, I have found my wife again, of course I am thanking God." ”

Xiao Yue sighed and smiled, washed the pot, brought a plate of meat and put it in the pot to stir-fry, and then said with a little resentment: "I'm afraid that if you look at it and become an old husband and wife with me, your interest will fade after all......"

Chen Du didn't pick up a good sound like a normal couple and said, "Isn't this a normal situation? When the time comes, we will be full of children and grandchildren, and we will become an old couple, and there will only be family affection, of course, if you want love, I can give you some surprises every month, and reminisce about the sweetness and happiness now. ”

Xiao Yue continued to stir the meat in the wok and put down the seasoning: "You just coax me, I'm afraid you won't care if I have such thoughts at all, men are all virtuous." ”

Chen Du had nothing to say and continued to burn the fire silently.

In the end, when Xiao Yue fried two more dishes, they began to eat.

There is a pavilion in the courtyard, there are stone tables and chairs in it, Chen Du and Xiao Yue put four dishes on the table together, and added re-stewed white rice, which they ate with relish.

"It's delicious, my wife's craftsmanship is so good!" Chen Du picked up a chopstick of vegetables and ate it with white rice, and his stomach was as comfortable as pouring honey.

Of course, the taste of the dish is not honey, but when you eat it in Chen Du's stomach, the feeling of enjoyment is like this.

"Flim, eat your meal well." Xiao Yue knew that he was coaxing himself, but secretly sighed that he felt the same as in the past.

That's nice.
