Chapter 31: Someone Else's Sister
Sun Xiao's home is on the edge of Ningcheng, on the side of the new city, and the journey in the past is not short.
When they arrived nearby, the two of them got off the bus early at a fruit and vegetable supermarket.
Originally, according to Sun Xiao's plan, he went to a fast food restaurant near their home to buy some prepared dishes and then took them back directly.
But Cheng Lin shook his head after hearing this.
"You all eat in restaurants?"
He glanced at Sun Xiao.
"Isn't this my parents out of the house, my sister and I don't know much about cooking, so we can only eat ready-made." Sun Xiao explained embarrassedly.
Cheng Lin nodded when he heard this, and then said, "It's not decent to eat takeout if you celebrate, buy some vegetables, and I'll make lunch for you." ”
"You?! Do you know how to cook? ”
Sun Xiao looked surprised.
Cheng Lin smiled slightly, but did not explain.
Just got off at the fruit and vegetable supermarket.
Isn't it as he should be able to cook when he lives alone?
Since the death of his mother, Cheng Lin has begun to study cooking by himself, although he has always been just a self-taught person, but maybe because of his talent, he feels pretty good.
Cooking for other people though...... Or for the first time.
"I'll go buy some food, you go to the supermarket over there to find out if there are any quick-frozen dumplings, buy some back, by the way, if you see cold dishes, buy some too."
Cheng Lin thought for a while and said, Sun Xiao immediately took the order and left.
In the tradition of the Xia Kingdom, eating dumplings has slowly become a habit, not only whether it is delicious or not, whether you like to eat it or not, but for the New Year's Festival, you always feel that it is so bad if you don't eat it.
Being admitted to the Ninth Academy, this is no less meaningful to life than the college entrance examination.
Since it's time to celebrate, it's better to buy some.
Forget it yourself, it's too troublesome.
Thinking about this, Cheng Lin went into the supermarket and walked around, and when he came out, his hands were full of plastic bags.
Green vegetables, fish and shrimp, and a piece of meat was cut, which was heavy.
I don't know why, but carrying these things, suddenly my mood brightened a lot, and I temporarily put the problems of cultivation behind.
Sun Xiao also ran back in a hurry, carrying dumplings and cold dishes in one hand.
The other was carrying a bag of beer.
Of course, I didn't forget to bring a big bottle of juice.
The two looked at each other and smiled, got back into the car, and after a while, climbed the stairs and came to the door of Sun Xiao's house.
……
"Bang! Sun Xiaohan! Open the door! Your brother and I'm back! ”
Sun Xiao kicked the door of his house unceremoniously and roared.
After a while, Cheng Lin heard a string of small footsteps in the room getting closer and closer.
"Crunch."
The security door opened a crack, and a thief slipped away, and his black and white eyes glanced out before it was completely opened.
Then, I saw a little girl with a small head and a pretty figure, wearing a small dress with lotus leaf green, appearing at the door.
The little girl has very fair skin, delicate appearance, and her hair is combed into the style of watermelon skin, which is very beautiful.
With the emerald green little skirt, it is like a fresh breeze blowing out.
The two little short legs are white and clean, some of the flesh of a little girl, and they are wearing white socks on their feet, like two little white flowers.
The whole corridor is bright.
"Sun Xiao! Did you succeed in the interview? ”
Then, a crisp voice rang out.
Sun Xiao looked embarrassed, and Chong Cheng Lin introduced: "My sister, Sun Han, is in the first year of junior high school, and that ...... When I came out this morning, I told her that I was going for an interview......"
After a pause, he pointed at Cheng Lin and said to the little girl, "My friend, Cheng ......"
Before he finished speaking, Sun Xiaohan's nose wrinkled, and he said in an old-fashioned manner: "I know, Cheng Lin, come in~ Remember to change your slippers." ”
After saying that, she let go of her small body.
Cheng Lin Yile said in his heart that this brother and sister don't look like each other at all......
Looking at Sun Xiao's tall and strong physique, he thought that his sister would not be too inferior, but he didn't expect that the growth styles of the two brothers and sisters were completely different.
Probably still small, not open?
Cheng Lin couldn't help but think about it.
Next to him, Sun Xiao feigned anger and said, "Is Cheng Lin's name you?" Call him brother the same as calling me! ”
Sun Xiaohan pursed his lips and said, "It's as if I usually call you brother......
Sun Xiao: "......"
Is this really good to expose in front of outsiders?
Watching the two of them arguing, Cheng Lin couldn't help but smile on his face, and said softly: "It's okay to call your name." ”
After entering the house and changing into slippers, Sun Xiaohan finally noticed what they were carrying.
Then I looked at the little girl with a look of surprise: "Sun Xiao! You...... Did you buy lettuce? What do you want to do, last time you went into the kitchen......"
Sun Xiao hurriedly interrupted her and said, "It's your brother Cheng Lin who cooks today." ”
"You?"
Sun Xiaohan looked at Cheng Lin with suspicion.
It feels like this person is about the same age as his brother, can he really do it?
However, she was embarrassed to ask directly, so she could only move her suspicious little eyes back to her own brother.
Eye contact: Is he okay?
Sun Xiao actually had some drumming in his heart, and he didn't have any confidence in Cheng Lin's cooking skills at all, but on the surface, he still had a positive face, and replied with his eyes: Of course!
Ignoring the squeezing eyebrows of the two siblings, Cheng Lin first looked at the room, and then quickly found the kitchen.
walked over and said softly: "It's already noon, the time is a little tight, I'll start now, where are the spices in your house?" ”
Sun Xiao stuffed the juice into Sun Xiaohan's hand, sent her to the living room, and then ran over to help cook.
"Sun Xiao, I don't want juice, I want to drink beer......" The little girl held the juice with a reluctant face.
"What kind of alcohol do children drink, don't drink it!"
Sun Xiao yelled, then ignored her flattened mouth and began to introduce.
"The seasoning is here, the dishes are in this cabinet, and the sauté spoon is ...... Yes, in this! ”
After a pause, Sun Xiao said, "What do you think I can help you order?" ”
"You can help me wash the dishes."
"No problem!"
Sun Xiao carried a bunch of vegetables, unscrewed the faucet, and rubbed it.
Cheng Lin threw the beef he bought on the board, then rinsed the knife and began to cut the meat very seriously.
After cutting the meat, he turned his head to see that Sun Xiao had already washed the vegetables and was peeling potatoes with a paring knife.
Cheng Lin looked at the shapeless potato that was destroyed by Sun Xiao, hesitated, sighed, and said, "Sun Xiao...... Well, I'll peel the potatoes, you go back to the living room and sit down. ”
"How's that going to work! How can you do it all? ”
"It's okay...... Mainly...... If you peel it like this, we'll have to eat potato skins later......"
Sun Xiao was extremely embarrassed, his face was scornful, and he was ashamed.
No way, born to rush with the kitchen!
At this moment, I suddenly heard a little girl's cheer in the living room, and then I saw Sun Xiaohan running over with the admission letter from the Ninth Academy:
"Brother! What is this!? ”
"Letter of Acceptance ......"
"What university is the Ninth College of Devotional? Haven't you already been accepted into some university in the South? Sun Xiaohan looked ignorant.
"Don't go, change it, your brother will be a student of the Ninth Academy in the future,
Hey, don't touch it, how can you ......fix it if you break it?"
Sun Xiaohan was stunned, blinked his eyes wide, and asked, "Did you tell your parents about this?" ”
"Ahem, isn't this going to be talked about in the evening?"
"Hehe, I bet my parents will definitely disagree! Sun Xiao, you will definitely be scolded this time...... My classmate's brother woke up and was beaten by his father enough...... You ......"
Sun Xiao couldn't help but stroke his forehead, picked up the little girl and threw it on the sofa in the living room, and said depressedly in his mouth: "You don't mix, watch your cartoons!" ”
Sun Xiaohan was in mid-air, kicking his feet wildly.
Qi said: "Sun Xiao, don't carry me like this, it seems that you have awakened a lot, right?"
It's useless to be strong, when the time comes, our dad will beat you and see what you do......"
Seeing that this pair of brothers and sisters were making a mess, Cheng Lin smiled lightly, and kept peeling the potatoes with the movements in his hands, then unscrewed the fire, poured oil, heated the pan, and cut the green onions, ginger and garlic......
After a while, the smell began to come out of the kitchen, filling the room.
Sun Xiao and Sun Xiaohan sat in the living room, looking at Cheng Lin's professional and focused appearance, the two of them sniffled, both of them were a little surprised.
It doesn't seem to be a dark dish.
Letting go of the hanging heart, the brother and sister began to chat, mainly because Sun Xiaohan asked this and that, and Sun Xiao answered.
Although there are only three people, it is inexplicably very lively.
In this atmosphere, Cheng Lin also made a few dishes with his hands and feet, the stir-fry dishes were buttoned first, the dumplings were already hot, and the pot of beef and potatoes needed some time, just cover the lid and wait.
When he was finally done, Cheng Lin finally woke up from his state of concentration.
Then he suddenly noticed that the laughter in the living room had disappeared for some time.
The little girl's chirping voice was gone.
The room fell silent at some point.
Cheng Lin turned his head unexpectedly and saw Sun Xiao walking over with a depressed face.
"What's going on?" Cheng Lin asked.
Sun Xiao shook his head, and seemed to be confused: "I don't know, it's fine, I don't know what's wrong, the little girl suddenly shook her face with me, as if she was in a bad mood." ”
"Huh?"
Cheng Lin was very surprised, he looked sideways into the living room, and sure enough, he found that Sun Xiaohan, who was originally smiling, had changed his appearance at some point.
The little girl just sat on the sofa, clutching the admission letter in her hand, her face was calm, she didn't smile at all, she seemed to be angry, and although her eyes were on the TV, she didn't look at it at all.
Angry?
Why?
"You didn't coax?" Cheng Lin asked.
Sun Xiao spread his hands: "I don't know what's wrong with her at all, suddenly her little face sank, you said that this woman is easy to change her face, how can she be like this." ”
It can be seen that Sun Xiao is not very happy, he was a very happy day, but suddenly became like this.
Cheng Lin blinked his eyes, pretended to look through the drawer, raised his voice, and said, "I just saw that there is no soy sauce in your house, so I went out to buy a bottle of soy sauce." ”
Sun Xiao hurriedly stopped: "I'll just buy soy sauce!" Anything can keep you busy. ”
Cheng Lin smiled faintly and insisted: "Cooking is very particular about seasonings, and different brands of soy sauce are different, you won't choose, or I'll go." ”
With that, he unbuttoned his apron and went out.
Sun Xiao also gradually figured out Cheng Lin's temper, and knew that what he insisted on was difficult for others to change.
I could only send him out of the door with an embarrassed face, turned around, glanced at the kitchen, and muttered: "I remember that there is still soy sauce at home......"
……
Close the security door.
Standing in the corridor, Cheng Lin sighed softly.
Playing soy sauce is just an excuse, he can see that the little girl should have something to say, but because he is a stranger, he can't let go.
It's a pity that Sun Xiao's arrogant personality didn't show it at all.
Standing in the corridor, Cheng Lin hesitated, but still took the initiative to spread his perception, so the voice in the room became clear.
Although it is very wrong to eavesdrop on other people's conversations, but ......
If there is something you can do to help, it doesn't hurt to listen to it.
Hold your breath.
There was silence in the room for more than ten seconds.
Then Sun Xiaohan's voice came:
"Brother......
