Chapter 10: White Grains of Rice
In what Tang Muzhou said, it was like hiding a needle, and it suddenly touched a certain nerve of Ou Fang.
I saw that Ou Fang's expression suddenly became cold, and she looked at Tang Muzhou fixedly: "You, what do you mean?" ”
Tang Muzhou just laughed, and then burped.
Sorry to say sorry to her, Tang Muzhou got up and patted his stomach:
"It's so supportive, Ou Fang's fish is really good, in other places, even if it's a five-star hotel, you can't eat this taste at all, I think, you should have added some unique recipe, right?"
Hearing this, I noticed that the corners of Ou Fang's mouth rose slightly.
She seemed a little proud: "You're right, but what is the most important thing about this sauerkraut fish, do you know?" ”
Tang Muzhou glanced at the sour soup in the pot: "Yes, sauerkraut, right?" ”
"Yes!"
Ou Fang nodded and continued: "Actually, sauerkraut is really not uncommon in our place, and every household can make it. When making vegetables and soups, add a little bit, and the umami will come immediately. ”
Tang Muzhou also nodded: "Sauerkraut is indeed available in every household, and there is also a large jar of kimchi water in Tang Xiaofan's shop." ”
"The altar water outside can't compare to mine."
As he spoke, Ou Fang was a little proud.
Hearing her say this, although I was not convinced, I did not make a sound.
My jar of water, but Chef Zheng's decades of old heritage, how can it be worse than her jar of water. Her salt water, in fact, is not very old, but she adds a lot of spices to it.
Too much spice is added, like brine.
The salt water pays attention to the fresh fragrance, and the taste changes when the taste changes.
Just took a bite and I ate it.
"I never cook food outside. My husband's stomach is very picky, and if it is a little unpalatable, he will dislike it, which is really difficult to serve. ”
Tang Muzhou touched his chin:
"So, you give him fish for every meal?"
"Eating fish is healthy!"
Ou Fang's voice was a little louder than just now, she her hands, just looked at Tang Muzhou like this, her eyes didn't blink.
In the eyes of each other, I clearly felt an undercurrent surging.
The atmosphere, all of a sudden, wasn't very harmonious.
I was pressing to say something, Tang Muzhou waved his hand at me: "Tang Xiaofan, it's not early, isn't there something else going on in your store?" We have to go! ”
Ou Fang didn't keep us, and he didn't even say next time.
Seeing that we were leaving, Mei Mei caught up.
Ou Fang pulled her and said in a very cold tone: "Meimei, my sister still has something to do, don't go with her......"
When I went out with Tang Muzhou, I glanced back at Meimei.
She held out her hand to me and looked at me expectantly, hoping that I would stay, or take her away.
Ou Fang grabbed her hand so hard that the child couldn't break free at all.
The expression on Ou Fang's face was as cold as ice.
Suddenly, I regretted it.
How could I just throw Mei Mei away.
She was so young, I put her in such a strange environment. I only knew about her adoptive parents' workplace, but I didn't know anything about who they were.
Thinking of this, I strode forward.
Ou Fang blocked the door: "Tang Xiaofan, aren't you busy?" I won't keep you, next time...... Let's get back together. ”
I hurriedly said, "Ou Fang, Mei Mei doesn't seem to be well adapted to the environment here, why don't I take her back......"
"How is that possible?" Ou Fang laughed out loud:
"You should be a family, we signed an adoption agreement, and now Meimei has nothing to do with you, and Hu Dan and I are the closest people in the world."
After saying this, Ou Fang closed the door.
I heard Mei Mei crying inside, and Ou Fang reprimanded her in a loud voice: "Don't cry! It makes my heart annoyed, I didn't give you food or drink, what is it called every day!? ”
I listened to it very badly, scratching my heart.
When I turned around, I hurriedly asked Tang Muzhou what to do, and he sneered and said, "Ou Fang is right, you really don't have the right to take the child away." ”
I asked him again, "Can I call the police?" ”
"Call the police, what does this have to do with you, and in what capacity do you go to tell the police."
"I sued him for beating a child, can child abuse be punished?"
"Ou Fang, that's just educating children, besides, saying that she abused children, do you have any evidence?"
Tang Muzhou was speechless, and listened at the door for a while, the child should have returned to the room. After the crying disappeared, I couldn't hear Ou Fang's voice anymore.
After that, Tang Muzhou and I left.
On the way back, Tang Muzhou didn't say a word, it looked quite mysterious.
Several times I asked him questions, and he smiled mysteriously at me.
When he came to the hotel where he was staying, he pulled the curtains down.
The room was suddenly much darker, and then he took out a bath towel from the bathroom, spread it on the bed, and looked for my hand to let me go.
I walked up and saw him pull out a handful of rice grains from his coat pocket.
He spread those rice grains on the bath towel and said to me, "Tang Xiaofan, what do you think this is?" ”
I said, "Aren't these just grains of rice?" Where did you get that? ”
Tang Muzhou smiled: "Where else can I come from, Ou Fang's house." ”
"What are you doing with other people's rice?"
Tang Muzhou snorted: "Tang Xiaofan, take a closer look, are these rice grains?" ”
I don't understand a trace of him, these grains of white things, not blurry, what are they?
Seeing my confused look, Tang Muzhou sighed: "Tang Xiaofan, haven't you read all of "Autumn Moon Eclipse List"? ”
I said, "I've seen it for the most part, and I'm ...... I haven't finished the second half of the book yet. ”
"No wonder." Tang Muzhou said, he picked up some rice grains and spread them in the palm of his hand, and came to me: "Tang Xiaofan, take a closer look, what is this?" ”
My eyes widened and I looked closely.
This thing doesn't seem to be a grain of rice.
They are oval-shaped, white, without pointed ends, like peppercorns.
"Do you see clearly?" Tang Muzhou whispered: "This thing, it's not a grain of rice, right?" ”
"It's not." I shook my head.
"Do you know what the hell this is?"
I shook my head again.
Tang Muzhou didn't ask me anymore, he turned on the bedside lamp, picked up a "grain of rice", he pinched it hard with his two fingers, and suddenly, a sticky yellow liquid flowed out from between his fingers.
The liquid was about the same color as the yolk of an egg, and I understood it at once.
I was shocked and said, "So this is ......"
Before I could say anything, Tang Muzhou nodded: "That's right, this thing is not a grain of rice, it is a kind of worm egg!" ”
