Chapter 237: Design?

"It's nothing."

Xiaoxue lowered her head, turned sideways, and pretended to tidy up the ingredients.

He kept muttering, "I'm just talking about your vegetable market here...... It's a little different from my hometown. ”

The voice became softer and softer, like a mosquito and a fly, faintly inaudible.

It was clear that she had a weak heart.

"Before, the city."

Wan Hongzhuang's face was serious, and he pressed step by step, "I clearly heard that you mentioned it...... Heron Island! ”

"Heron Island."

Xiaoxue's figure was obviously stagnant, and she quickly regained her calm.

She still didn't turn around, just lowered her head and pretended to be calm: "You heard it wrong! ”

Wan Hongzhuang's brows frowned slightly...... Did you really hear it wrong?

Probably not!

He looked up at the thin figure in front of him.

At this moment, it seems to be shrouded in a veil of mystery and unpredictable...... It's just, why is she hiding her origin?

And what is her purpose?

That's when he found out...... I really don't seem to know her at all.

In addition to her identity, presumably a student, or, just graduated. And then she had a lot of places she wanted to go, and it seemed, she was running away from something.

Nothing else, I don't know anything.

It's just that he has never had the habit of forcing people, and he is thoughtful, and more importantly, he still hides some things in his heart.

Seeing that Xiaoxue seemed to be deliberately avoiding certain questions, he could only temporarily suppress the doubts in his heart.

"Ugh."

Wan Hongzhuang shook his head helplessly, and then frowned slightly, and his expression turned grim.

He suddenly found that the encounter between the two looked more and more like an elaborate design!

In just a few days, so many things have happened between the two, and even ...... I also started living together!

Under one roof.

All of this, seemingly logical, is not logical at all.

"Ghost obsessed mind, must be ghost obsessed mind!" Wan Hongzhuang shook his head and sighed helplessly.

……

On the other side, Xiaoxue has already started making grilled fish.

Carrying the fishtail, she carefully washed away the remaining blood and placed it on a metal plate beside her.

Then take a small dish that has been prepared on the side, pour all the mixed spices, and spread it evenly on the fish.

- The various seasonings made by this compound are obviously already blended.

Red, white, grainy, with a strong aroma...... With a slight sniff, Wan Hongzhuang can easily identify the ingredients contained in Huadiao wine, light soy sauce, Sichuan pepper and onion.

Her approach is quite decent.

In addition to removing the smell, this simple pickling can also give the ingredients a base flavor, and if I guessed correctly, a little salt should be added to it.

Xiaoxue leaned sideways slightly, looking at Wan Hongzhuang with a smug expression.

Seeing that he didn't seem to react, he pouted and turned around again, busy with his work.

Soon, the first step was successfully completed, Xiaoxue breathed a sigh of relief and turned around, "I still have to marinate for a little time, but it's not too early, I'll go straight to the pot!" ”

"Yo, I can't see it, you know it takes time to marinate!"

"That's it!" Xiaoxue waved her fist, looking proud.

"Okay, no problem!"

Wan Hongzhuang patted his stomach, "I can't wait, waiting for Chef Snow to grill your grilled fish!" ”

"Wait, you."

Xiaoxue turned around with a smile, came to the stove, and lit the fire.

"Smack!"

The firelight flickered, and a strange warmth instantly filled the entire kitchen, and on this cold winter night, the small space and atmosphere suddenly became charming.

The dim light of the fire, reflected on her face, flickered and dimmed.

Xiaoxue pursed her lips, took a deep breath, and then slowly poured the base oil into the pot.

"W-"

The oil temperature rose instantly, and while the fire was shining, I saw Xiaoxue on the side with a serious face, and her mouth kept opening and closing silently: "5...... 10…… 15…… 20……”

Wan Hongzhuang blinked and smiled dumbly.

It's clear that this girl is timing this way.

I don't know how she came up with it, but for novices, if you can't skillfully control the oil temperature, this method is not bad.

"Laugh what a laugh!"

Xiaoxue gave him an annoyed look, and then carried the juicy fishtail...... Get out of the pot.

"Waitβ€”"

Wan Hongzhuang on the side didn't have time to stop it at all, he heard an exclamation, and then, a figure retreated sharply and fell heavily into his arms......

The soft fragrance and warm jade are in the arms, but there is no charm.

In the oil pot, the residual juice on the fish body collides with the hot oil crazily!

The water vapor is scattered with oil droplets, scattered and splashed in all directions!

Wan Hongzhuang shook his head helplessly, so he had to hurry up and clean up the mess.

First cover the pot, then turn off the fire on the stove to a minimum, and wait until everything is calm, then turn around again and return to Xiaoxue's side, "It's still hard-mouthed, I don't know that hot oil can't get wet, it will splash!" ”

Xiaoxue's eyes were red, her face was aggrieved, her eyes were rippling, and she was crying.

"Alright, alright!" Wan Hongzhuang gently took her hand, "It's not hot!" ”

"Painful ......"

Xiao Xue pouted and raised her hand with an aggrieved expression.

The snow-white arms were stained with sporadic oil stains, and many parts had begun to redden.

Obviously, it's hot.

For an old fritter like Wan Hongzhuang, squatting in the kitchen every day will inevitably be splashed with hot oil, plus the skin, so it is not a big deal.

However, for Xiaoxue, her fingers were originally not touched by the spring water.

This kind of pain is obviously a little unbearable.

Shaking his head helplessly, Wan Hongzhuang turned on the faucet on the side, took her hand, and put it under the cold water.

"Shhhh

Xiaoxue took a deep breath, and the whole person trembled slightly, muttering: "Cold!" ”

"Bear with me, it's fine." Wan Hongzhuang's face was pleasant.

Xiaoxue, who was still struggling, gradually began to calm down, blushing slightly, and bowing her head vigorously.

The atmosphere was somewhat ambiguous.

It's just that Wan Hongzhuang just lowered his head at this time, so he didn't notice anything.

"Wood!" Xiaoxue pursed her lips and complained secretly.

"Ah...... My fish. ”

Suddenly, Xiaoxue seemed to think of something, and suddenly broke away and lifted the lid of the pot.

"It's all your fault, I'm ...... I've forgotten the timer! ”

Xiao Xue pursed her mouth, looking aggrieved, looking at the fish still rolling in the pot, at a loss.

"Do you want to finish a dish by keeping time?" Wan Hongzhuang stood aside, smiling and teasing.

"Can't you?" Xiaoxue pouted, unconvinced.

"It's time to turn over!" Wan Hongzhuang shook his head helplessly and reminded.

"Ah, is it?" Xiaoxue hurriedly picked up the spatula on the side and hurriedly operated it.

Looking at the golden fish, Xiaoxue breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good to have you, the chef, by your side." ”

After saying that, she began to count down again, "5...... 10…… 15…… 20……”
