Chapter 64: Mother's Past

It's still too tender, don't you know that my phone album has a backup, and I can still get it back" This person felt that he was too smart, and clicked on the phone again, and soon the photos and videos that had just been deleted were restored.

"I'm so angry, I'm sorry Yaoyao, I really didn't know things would turn out like this!" When she went out, Meng Yao was a little sullen, and Chen Ke hurriedly apologized.

"Is there anything about this, we are ordinary people, if it's just an ordinary photo, it's nothing, but it's not good as publicity." In fact, if it is with her consent, propaganda is also okay, but will she agree? Naturally, it won't. "Okay, it's all deleted, let's go shopping."

"Forget it, I'm not interested, I'll go back to accompany my mother!" After such a toss, I really lost my mood.

"Alright then, I'll take you to the car!" Although you can take a taxi, the price is also relatively large, thinking that no one will go to charge for the meter, counting the cost of empty driving, then Chen Ke will work in vain for about two days.

"Let's take a taxi to your house first, and I got off when I just passed Jinjing Station, and there was a bus there in the direction of my house." Chen Ke thought about it, if she asked Meng Yao to accompany her to the platform to take the train, it was hot outside, and there was no car to her house nearby, she thought of a platform that only needed to turn the train once and happened to be on the platform near Meng Yao's house, in fact, she sat there in the morning and got off.

"Good" stretched out the umbrella in his hand, the two walked along the shady place of the commercial city wall, although there was no sun, but the heat wave was rolling, and it was easy to get to a temporary taxi stop, some shade, but it was not as hot as just now, and after waiting for two minutes, I saw a taxi with a green light on the roof of the car, and waved to stop.

When I got home, He Xiaojuan and Meng Tianhao hadn't come back yet, only Aunt Gui was sitting alone in the corridor outside the back door, with her mobile phone on the high-backed chair in front of her, still playing variety shows, she was smiling happily, peeling edamame in her hands, and a trash can at her feet.

"Aunt Gui, I'll help you!" Meng Yao felt really bored.

"This really doesn't work, it will not only hurt your nails but also your hands, you can't do it." Aunt Gui hurriedly snatched back the pod she was holding in her hand, this was definitely not something that her delicate hands could do, even if she had worked all year round with such a hand, it would hurt if she peeled it for a long time.

"So what can I do for you?" Meng Yao didn't give up, and the days of staying upstairs alone every day were too difficult.

"Well, I'll teach you how to cut fruit, so that you can make it yourself and eat it for yourself when you learn it." Aunt Gui put down the beans in her hand and turned off her phone. I turned around and walked towards the kitchen. Of course, Meng Yao was followed behind him. I washed my hands, then I took a large apple in the fridge, washed the skin, found a cutting board for cutting fruit, and picked out the smallest knife.

"Look, first cut this apple into eighths, then cut off this side of the core, then turn it over and cut it diagonally in this third, and cut it diagonally in this way, and then carefully cut this off, look, does this look like a little rabbit?" Aunt Gui said while cutting, it was done in three or two clicks, although it looked very simple, but Meng Yao felt that it was still a little difficult. "It's okay, you face this, you try."

Hand the handle of the smallest knife in his hand to Meng Yao and encourage her. "Cut this off like this," she said very carefully, cutting back and forth, because the apple was too small in her eyes, and she was really afraid of cutting it if she wasn't careful

"That's right, be careful, take your time, don't rush." Aunt Gui also looked at it very carefully, for fear that she would cut her hand. "Next, find the right position and cut diagonally." The tone was very light, slow and gentle, and Meng Yao over there was a little trembling, "Be careful not to cut it too heavily, just scratch the skin." ”

"It's good, and then cut it, yes, this is very neat and good, that is, if you are afraid, just hold a little bit in front with your left hand, if you cut it, it is not good-looking, and it can still be eaten." Aunt Gui said with a smile. "Then I picked it up and peeled it off as slowly as you had just cut it, and that's it."

But what she said was very simple, and what she did was very simple, but Meng Yao took a long breath, her rabbit ears were long and short on the other, and they looked untidy as if they were injured, and the part that exposed the flesh was also very uneven, compared to what Aunt Gui did, it was simply a white swan and an ugly duckling.

"It's not bad, it's the first time." Aunt Gui looked at it and smiled, still very satisfied, after all, she knew that she should be careful and pay attention to safety, this is the most important thing. "Just cut a few more times. Be safe, I'm going to peel the beans. Looking at the second apple that Meng Yao picked up, she said happily.

Here Meng Yao stared at the apple rabbit cut by Aunt Gui, thinking about the main points that Aunt Gui said to herself, thinking about the shortcomings of her just cutting, this time she thought about it for a long time before she started to use the knife, slowly compared, when using the knife was very direct and crisp, and finally peeled the skin, it was much better than the one just completed, of course, there was still a gap with Aunt Gui, but this time she was still more satisfied, and a little confident.

After cutting her fourth apple rabbit, she took it and walked to show Aunt Gui, and received a strong compliment, which made her embarrassed. However, when she went into the kitchen, she found that the apples had changed color, especially the apple that Aunt Gui had just cut was a little yellow.

"Aunt Gui, Aunt Gui, come here." Meng Yao wondered if there was something wrong with her fruit.

"What's the matter, you've got your hand." Aunt Gui hurriedly ran over, she could only think that Meng Yao was in such a hurry.

"No, why did this apple turn yellow so quickly, is it a bad apple that I bought." Meng Yao pointed to the little rabbits and said.

"Haha, I forgot to tell you, apples will oxidize and turn yellow when they are cut, they used to be soaked in salt water, in fact, I heard that squeezing some lemon juice is not only delicious, but also less prone to discoloration, you used to eat freshly cut, so I didn't care too much." Aunt Gui smiled a little helplessly, she is about to be a college student, and this basic common sense is not clear. "If you get bored, I can teach you how to do some basic housework, after all, your own mother is gone, if you don't take the initiative to mention it, your mother won't ask you to do it, you learn. Even if you don't have to do this in the Jiang family in the future, it will still be much better. ”

"Yes, okay." Meng Yao knew that Aunt Gui treated her like her own daughter, so her words could still be listened to. "It's just that this discolored apple is thrown away, it's ugly." Indeed, what was white just now is now yellow.
