Chapter 30: The Problem of Cooking
It was getting dark, and before I knew it, it was time to hold the lamp.
At night in the mountain village, it always gets dark very quickly.
The old woman got up and walked tremblingly to the kitchen to make them dinner.
Bai Qianyu hurriedly stopped her: "Mother-in-law, you're tired too, I'll go!"
"Good girl," the old woman looked up at her, and patted her on the wrist, "Then I'm sorry for you! The food is all in the kitchen, although it is not a delicacies of the mountains and seas, but it is also the taste of the countryside that grows in the ground, and it can take care of your fullness!"
"Okay!" Bai Qianyu answered, rolled up his sleeves and walked to the kitchen.
Shamrock immediately crawled out of the basket in the corner of the wall, jumped up and down after her, and kept chattering: "White girl, are you going to cook? What will you do to eat? People are hungry now, so hungry that they can eat a whole big peach!"
Bai Qianyu glanced at it.
"This is not the heavenly realm, there is no big peach. ”
"That," Clover bit the palm of the leaf and hesitated, "Ginseng fruit is also fine......"
Seeing Bai Qianyu glance at it again, his arrogance suddenly withered, and he muttered: "No matter what, just have something to eat...... I'm not a picky eater!"
"That's pretty much it!" Bai Qianyu patted his hand on its blade head, turned around and walked into the kitchen.
Shamrock immediately jumped up and down and walked in after her.
Bai Qianyu looked around the kitchen, and saw some sweet potatoes, purple potatoes and the like piled up in the corner, and there was a small half jar of rice in the rice bowl, and couldn't help but be overjoyed: "We have something delicious at night!"
"What to eat?" Clover immediately stretched out a leaf head and leaned in front of her.
Bai Qianyu pushed it away: "You'll know later." Now stay out of the way, and don't get in my way!"
"Oh. Shamrock answered, and shrank into the corner, half of the stem shrunk, and sat down on top of a pile of sweet potatoes.
Bai Qianyu picked up three sweet potatoes and four purple potatoes, first peeled and diced them with a kitchen knife, put them in a clay pot, added water to the clay pot, and soaked them.
Then he grabbed a few handfuls of rice from the rice bowl, sprinkled it in the pot on the stove, scooped water from the water tank, poured it into the pot, and was about to make a fire, when he looked at the wood stove, but he was a little worried.
She is at home every day, and she also likes to cook some food to treat herself, but there are gas stoves, rice cookers, steamers and everything at home, and you can use it with the turn of the switch, but this wood stove in another world is difficult for her.
In fact, she has not seen this kind of thing, she used to go to her grandmother's house in the countryside with her parents for the New Year, and she had seen such a firewood stove.
But Grandma loved her granddaughter, and never let her stay in the kitchen, and always drove her outside to play, and she couldn't figure out how the wood stove was made.
She wanted to call Wei Xiao for help, but when she thought of his arrogant self-righteous demeanor, she still endured the words in her throat.
No, she didn't want him to look down on her anymore!
She looked at the stove, and there was nothing but some piled firewood, dry straw, and two black flint-like things.
She'd seen it on TV, so she took it.
She squatted down, first filled the stove with firewood, and then spread the dry straw on it, holding two flints in her hands, rubbing desperately, and after a while, she really rubbed a little spark!
Bai Qianyu was overjoyed, and hurriedly brought Mars close to the dry straw, but the Mars was destroyed all of a sudden.
She was not discouraged, and hit three or four more times, and this time she finally lit the dry straw, and she was very happy, and quickly put her mouth close to the dry straw and blew it violently!
The straw caught fire and burst into flames.
The burning sparks splashed their hair and burned up!
"Ahh
Hearing the scream, the god stood up and burrowed into the kitchen like a whirlwind.
Then he saw Bai Qianyu, who was drenched in water, and his hair smelled of burning.
"What's going on?" he asked, frowning.
Shamrock lifted two leaves and spread her hands: "The white girl's hair was splashed by the sparks hit by the flint, so I had to take out the water of the Tianhe stored in my body to save her!"
Wei Xiao looked at Bai Qianyu.
She was still busy wringing the wet water from her clothes, and the water in her hair was dripping down her hair, looking embarrassed.
The corners of his mouth curled upward, revealing a hint of a smile, but he couldn't hold back: "Fortunately, you have the water of the Tianhe River with you, otherwise someone would be able to set the house on fire if you cook a meal!"
The smile froze on his face, which showed that he had endured very hard.
Bai Qianyu happened to turn his head and saw it, and said, "Wei Xiao, you are laughing at me again!"
Wei Xiao was stunned: "I didn't." ”
"You have it!"
"I ......"
Wei Xiao was still ready to tell, and the old woman had already walked in, holding a clean floral cloth shirt in her hand: "Young couple, how can there be no one who doesn't talk about it, this man, you have to let some women go!"
She looked like an elder, mentioned Wei Xiao, walked past him, and handed the flower cloth shirt to Bai Qianyu: "Girl, I see that you are soaked, let's change your clothes first! This is what my wife wore when she was young, the colors are brighter, and her body size is also consistent with yours." ”
Bai Qianyu took the shirt and said, "Thank you, mother-in-law!" and walked out.
When he passed by Wei Xiao's side, he glared at him fiercely.
The latter did not squint and pretended not to see anything.
When Bai Qianyu walked out of the kitchen, the old woman glanced at Wei Xiao with a smile and joked: "They are both young and young, and they are still so shy?"
"I didn't ......" The god was about to open his mouth to argue, but was interrupted by the old woman: "Look at your hard mouth, your face is red!"
When the old woman walked out of the house, Clover walked up to Wei Xiao, looked at him with great sympathy, stretched out the stem, and patted him on the shoulder with the leaf: "You know that women in the world are very troublesome, if you meet them, it's like Xiucai encountering soldiers, you can't explain it reasonably!"
Then it twisted its stem, Shi Shiran walked out, and threw down a sentence before leaving the door: "I'm hungry, hurry up and make dinner!"
Then it slipped out with a quick "swish".
It doesn't matter how ugly the face of the god general behind him is.
When Bai Qianyu came out after changing his clothes in the back room, he unexpectedly smelled the aroma of porridge.
The porridge was mixed with the aroma of sweet potatoes and purple potatoes, and the smell made people even more hungry.
When she walked out of the room, she saw candles lit in the hall, in front of a square wooden table, Clover, Wei Xiao and the old woman were sitting on one side, and there was a large pot of hot porridge and four pairs of chopsticks on the table.
Bai Qianyu smiled, hurriedly walked over, and sat down next to the old woman.
The old woman added a bowl of porridge to her and said kindly, "Taste it, how does it taste?"
The porridge is filled with boiled sweet potato pieces and purple potatoes, mixed with the fullness of rice, and it tastes delicate and soft, fragrant and smooth, with an indescribable spiritual atmosphere, and the stomach suddenly warms up and feels comfortable.
Bai Qianyu tasted it and nodded again and again: "It's delicious! Mother-in-law, your craftsmanship is so good!"
"Really?" the old woman smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed: "If it's good, you can drink more!"
Waiting for Bai Qianyu to drink half a bowl in one go, he picked up the porridge spoon and added it to her bowl, and said as he added: "If you like it, drink more, this is the first time for a young man to cook today!"
"Young man......" Bai Qianyu was so shocked that he was about to lose his grip on the dishes and chopsticks, and he almost choked in his throat with a mouthful of porridge, looked up at Wei Xiao, and said, "Mother-in-law, you mean, he, he cooks?"
"What is the fuss about?" the god of heaven did not change his face: "I just used a little fire spell to set the firewood on fire, that's all." ”
He said it unusually lightly.
But Bai Qianyu made up a picture of the gods who do not eat the fireworks of the world and will cook...... It was so beautiful that she couldn't think about it.
"Wei Xiao, he also used the water of the Tianhe stored in my body to cook porridge!" Clover on the side also screamed, anxious to complain to her.
"Use your water to cook porridge?" Bai Qianyu was taken aback again: "Why did he use your water to cook porridge?"
"He didn't think the water in the tank was clean enough," Clover complained aggrievedly, "so he pressed my head and squeezed the water from the Tianhe River into the pot from my body!"
Bai Qianyu imagined that picture and couldn't help laughing.
"Alas!" Clover frowned even more, "It's strange that humans are such animals, why do they always base their happiness on the pain of others!"
