Chapter 81: Midsummer Dusk and Special Gifts

By the time Mo Ning returned home, Mo Xun and Cai Youyou had already brought four dishes and one soup to the table.

Braised tofu with mushroom and ham, braised pork with chestnut, cold salad with three shreds and steamed eggplant with cold salad, plus delicious winter melon pork rib soup, a balanced meal with meat and vegetables, exudes an attractive aroma.

"Your cold steamed eggplant has improved from some time ago." Mo Xun commented: "The eggplant is steamed crispy but not rotten. The chili oil you made has a mellow taste, and this dish is sour and spicy, which is perfect as an appetizer in a season like this. Braised tofu with mushroom ham melts in the mouth and has a mellow taste. ”

"The cold salad and chestnut braised pork you made are also delicious, especially this chestnut braised pork, which is sweet but not greasy, and makes people want to stop." Cai Youyou also smiled and said: "Seriously, the reason why these dishes are so delicious is also because the ingredients used to cook them are all pure flavors that really come from nature. ”

Mo Xun smiled and took over the conversation: "It's a pity that the cost of cultivating these natural ingredients on planets other than Zichen Star is still too high. Even if you rely on food hunters to bring back various ingredients from other planets, the shipping and labor costs required are astronomical. ”

"My father's notes have mentioned many times that the only way to make all the inhabitants of the Eastern Star Alliance able to eat natural food is the Wasteland Recovery Project."

"That's why we opened Zhenwei Caotang and Huaxia Gastronomy Academy. On the one hand, we promote natural food to people who can afford to eat natural food, and on the other hand, we want to cultivate as many relevant talents as possible, and at the same time, it is also for profit. After all, whether it's running an academy, a farm, sending food hunters to search for food from other planets, or researching the recovery of the wasteland, the cost of these projects is extraordinarily large. ”

Cai Youyou looked at Mo Xun and said, "I can understand what you said." So, I'll do my best for tomorrow's exam. Three days after the opening of Zhenwei Thatched Cottage, please make sure you let me participate in it. ”

Listening to the conversation between the two people, Mo Ning, who had been immersed in enjoying the food, laughed: "Just finished eating, don't talk about such a heavy topic." Well, the weather is fine today, and while it's still dark, you two will go out for a walk and leave the dishes to me. ”

"Okay, I just have something to talk to Xiao Cai." Mo Xun said, he stood up, grabbed Cai Youyou's wrist, and the two went out together.

Cai Youyou originally thought that Mo Xun would give her some suggestions for tomorrow's exam, or if there were any important matters to tell her in advance.

Unexpectedly, he looked at her and showed a good-looking smile.

In his eyes, the warm orange glow of the midsummer sunset was still reflected.

"I have a gift for you." He said.

He said as he pulled out his phone.

"You've been away from your home for a while. Don't you want to see how your home is going, and what is going on in your vegetable garden? ”

Hearing this, Cai Youyou's eyes lit up: "You mean ......"

Mo Xun nodded with a smile and pressed the video call function on the phone.

After a moment of waiting, an old man with a red face and gray hair connected to the video.

There was also a little girl beside the old man. Behind the old man are vigorous vegetables.
