Chapter Twenty-Nine: Juice Extraction
"Wife, can I have a glass of juice?" You Yecheng stared at Fang Lan with expectant eyes.
I saw Fang Lan take the freshly squeezed juice in her hand and take a sip into her mouth and said, "No, the last cup is in my hand, but there is still the residue left over from the squeezing in it, you can eat it if you don't mind." ”
"Don't look at it as scum, its nutritional value can also be high." Fang Lan continued to add.
You Yecheng looked at Fang Lan's expression and dared not speak, how could she think that her wife was joking at herself, but she still cleaned up her mood, walked over with a smile and took the initiative to pinch Fang Lan's shoulder, and said as if flattering: "Then can you bother my wife and squeeze me a cup tomorrow?" ”
To be honest, You Yecheng has been married to Fang Lan for so many years, and his wife has not taken the initiative to cook anything delicious for himself, and before marriage, he didn't even let Fang Lan into the kitchen, thinking that the smoke would smoke his wife, so he cooked by himself.
It was only later that after the two had You Li, Fang Lan wanted to show herself in front of her children and was a mother who could cook, so she began to cook and learn to cook.
I remember that at the beginning, Fang Lan would always accidentally burn herself, otherwise she would accidentally scratch her hand with a knife when cutting vegetables, and You Yecheng, who came back from work, looked at Fang Lan's delicate hands in the past and now they were hot bubbles, and the scratched knife edge, and felt distressed.
At this time, he would hold Fang Lan's hand and stroke it carefully, and said in a slightly trembling voice: "Wife, otherwise we won't learn, and I'll cook in the future." ”
"That's not good, so that when Lili grows up, she thinks that I don't know anything, and I want to set an example for my children." In fact, Fang Lan just watched too many bloody dramas at eight o'clock when she was pregnant with You Li, she was afraid that after giving birth to a child, her figure would be deformed and out of shape, and her breasts would sag, and You Yecheng didn't like her as much as before.
That's why Fang Lan thought that if he had a skill, he would be able to attract You Yecheng even more, so he wouldn't be afraid, as the saying goes: if you want to capture a man's heart, you must first grab his stomach.
Fang Lan will start to work hard in cooking, but You Yecheng just thought that his wife wanted to set an example for his daughter, and he didn't notice that Fang Lan had a little postpartum depression, thanks to Lan Jiali, who had been by Fang Lan's side at the time, so that Fang Lan cleaned up and recovered to the same state.
It's just that You Yecheng doesn't know that Fang Lan has experienced such a thing now, this matter has been buried in the deepest part of Lan Jiali and Fang Lan's heart, but the good Fang Lan is really in love with cooking, she feels that cooking can make her relax, and the praise when You Li is eating with relish also gives Fang Lan a lot of motivation.
Now You Yecheng doesn't know how to cook, he will take the initiative to cook every weekend, because he wants to relieve Fang Lan's pressure a little, and he also takes care of the daily dishwashing by himself. Fang Lan saw that she could relax a little more every day, so she naturally had no opinion.
"Okay, if you want to drink, I'll go to the fruit store tomorrow and buy the fruit, and I'll squeeze it for you when I buy it." Fang Lan deliberately teased her husband.
You Yecheng never expected Fang Lan to answer like this, so he snorted angrily and went back to the room, not even continuing the massage for Fang Lan.
You Yecheng was lying in the quilt, the more he thought about it, the more sad he became, he felt so miserable, his wife didn't love his daughter, he didn't kiss him, thinking about this person who was over half a hundred years old, tears were going to fall.
Fang Lan looked at her husband's angry back, felt funny, and muttered in her heart: Why is this so funny? It's like a child. I won't take it seriously, then I'll have to hurry up and coax it.
So much so that You Li, who came back from delivering freshly squeezed juice to Shen Yanzhi, looked at the dark living room and wondered in her heart: Did my mother forget, I haven't come back yet? Not wanting to disturb the rest of the two, Yuri slowed down and slowly groped her way forward in the dark, and finally arrived at her room.
You Li obediently went to Shen Yanzhi with freshly squeezed juice, and when she got it, she happened to meet Lan Jiali who was sitting on the sofa watching a TV series, so she politely greeted her: "Godmother, my mother squeezed the juice, let me give Brother Yanyan a cup." ”
"Okay, you go up, he should have just finished practicing by now." Lan Jiali pointed to the utility room above for You Li and said.
Because Shen Yanzhi needs to practice in a relatively large place, it is not realistic to go to the taekwonxing gym every day to go to school, so Lan Jiali cleaned up the utility room and made a vacant space for Shen Yanzhi to practice.
You Li excitedly knocked on the door with the juice: "Brother Yanyan, are you there?" I'm in, huh? ”
In response, it was Shen Yanzhi who came over to open the door, "What's wrong?" Come to me so late? He asked, confused.
"It's nothing, it's just that my mother heard that you were going to participate in a taekwondo competition, so she specially squeezed a glass of juice and asked me to send it to you, saying that it can supplement vitamins." You Li said and handed out the freshly squeezed juice in her hand like a treasure.
"Okay, thank you godmother for helping me." Saying that, Shen Yanzhi took the cup in You Li's hand and tasted a big sip, the juice was sweet and sour, and the original fragrance of the fruit filled the taste buds, making people have an endless aftertaste.
"Well, it's delicious." After Shen Yanzhi finished tasting the first sip, he drank the remaining juice in the cup, and after snorting twice, he opened his mouth and said to You Li: "Put the cup here first, and tomorrow I will send it to my godmother after I wash it, it's so late, you go back to sleep first." ”
"Brother Yanyan, can I ask you something before I go back to sleep?" You Li still didn't give up and wanted to ask this question.
Shen Yanzhi saw that You Li had something to say, so he dragged a chair over from a distance, "Then sit down for a while?" As he spoke, he took the towel on the table to wipe his sweat.
"Well, I just want to go to Linshi with you, and I also go to see you play, but my mother said that if I go, you will be distracted and take care of me, and she doesn't agree with me going." You Li thought that if Shen Yanzhi agreed here, then Fang Lan's side would be easier to say.
Shen Yanzhi felt that what Fang Lan said was not unreasonable, and patiently explained: "Lili, I think what my godmother said makes sense, there will definitely be a lot of people in the competition venue at that time, and I don't have time to take care of you." ”
"Don't you want me to go, I promise I'll really be obedient, and I won't walk around, I just want to see how you play." You Li drooped her head and said pitifully to Shen Yanzhi.
"It's really not, at least not in the preliminary round, Lili, obedient, okay?" Shen Yanzhi coaxed in a slightly hoarse voice, he really couldn't see You Li's appearance, but he hadn't figured out what the situation was over there, he had to go by himself first, and if he could continue to compete in the future, he would dare to take You Li over.
"If we can make it to the finals, I promise I'll take you to see it, okay?" Shen Yanzhi gently touched You Li's face and comforted.
"Okay, I'll go back first, Brother Yanyan, you can rest early." After You Li finished speaking, she walked out with little interest.
Lan Jiali was watching the TV series and was fascinated, she didn't notice that You Li had gone downstairs, and she didn't see that she was unhappy, but she said hello to Lan Jiali before she went home: "Godmother, I'll go home first." ”
"Okay, Lili, rest early." Lan Jiali fixed the TV with the remote control on the coffee table, and got up to send You Li out of the house. watched her enter her own door before she closed the door with confidence, returned to the sofa and continued to watch the TV series that she was addicted to.
When You Li got home, she saw that the living room was dark, and the door of You Yecheng and Fang Lan was closed, and her mood was even worse, but she had to go to school tomorrow morning, so she had to go to bed quickly.
"What's wrong? Pears and pears. A sad face. Su Yan saw that she was not in a very good mood today, and she hadn't spoken much, thinking that You Li was worried about something, so she asked worriedly.
"Recently, Yan said that my brother was going to play in Linshi, but he and my mother didn't agree with me going over." You Li said gloomily.
Su Yan deserved to be a scholar, and analyzed with a clear mind: "Maybe Shen Yanzhi doesn't know what the situation is in Linshi, if he takes you like this, if something unexpected happens, he won't be able to deal with it, I don't think he will want you to watch him play." ”
"Really?" You Li asked suspiciously.
"Definitely, don't you know what my brother Shen looks like?" Dou Huaisheng also said in the back. "However, my brother Shen must be very chic in the game." He continued to speak in a worshipful tone.
You Yecheng's heart last night was like a roller coaster, he was still very aggrieved and sad, but later Fang Lan went in and took the initiative to coax himself, You Yecheng was still angry, and after a while, his mood began to bubble.
When he got home from work today, he went to the fruit store, bought a box of navel oranges, and picked out his wife's favorite cherries to take out a box of strawberries and blueberries.
The owner of the fruit shop had never seen such a bold customer for a long time, and actively packed You Yecheng and put it in the trunk.
You Yecheng went home with a heavy amount of loot, because he really couldn't finish moving alone, so he called Fang Lan to come out to help.
"How do you buy so much fruit?" Fang Lan looked at the stuffed trunk and let out a shocked sound.
"Didn't you think you could squeeze juice for me at night, and then when I saw your favorite cherries, I brought a box of them by the way, thinking that I would like to eat something else, so I bought many others." You Yecheng was complacent and said proudly.
Fang Lan was embarrassed after hearing this, and coaxed herself for so long last night, she still remembered this matter, fortunately she didn't go out to buy fruit today, otherwise this fresh fruit would have to be spoiled at home.
Director Zhang came back with the results of the lottery, and he called Shen Yanzhi to inform him to go to the taekwondo gym after school on Friday evening.
"How's that, who is smoking?" Shen Yanzhi said and pushed open the door, but there was no shadow of Curator Zhang around, only a handsome little girl sitting on a chair in the distance.
Just when Shen Yanzhi was puzzled, there was no mistake and who this girl was, Director Zhang pushed the door from behind with a bag of fruit, and saw Shen Yanzhi carrying a schoolbag and was at a loss by the door, and said, "Ah, it's coming, it's quite punctual." ”
Seeing his puzzled eyes staring into the distance, Director Zhang waved his hand enthusiastically and took the initiative to explain: "Come on, come on, let me introduce, this is the person from our pavilion who went to the competition with you this time, Cai Jingmin, you are your junior sister." ”
"You two should get acquainted with each other first." After Curator Zhang finished speaking, he took the fruit to the water room to wash it.
Cai Jingmin only heard Director Zhang say that the person who went to the competition with him this time was a boy, and he was still his senior brother according to the time of entering the museum. But she didn't say that she looked so handsome, she suddenly had a spring in her heart, so she took the initiative to come forward and say hello: "Hello, Cai Jingmin." ”
"Well, Shen Yanzhi." His voice replied in a cold voice, and his tone was full of polite detachment.
