Chapter 96: Modern Life
Chen Xiao brought the cold cucumber and tom yum soup to the table, and the barbecue was ready.
She sliced the barbecue, sprinkled it with barbecue dip, and served two more bowls of rice.
"Time is limited, so let's eat." Chen Xiaodao.
There are many ways to grill "barbecue", and the grilled pork belly she made today will be more flavorful after marinating for a few hours. But it's already past ten o'clock in the evening, and there is not so much time for pickling.
Fang Yu sandwiched a slice and tasted it, the outside was charred and the inside was tender, spicy and fragrant.
"This chili powder on it is very fragrant!" He was referring to the barbecue dip sprinkled on the meat.
"This chili powder has sesame seeds, peanuts, and a lot of condiments."
Grilling meats, the focus is on the marinade in the front and the dipping sauce in the back, and in the middle, it's just grilled.
Fang Yu took a bite of the rice and was amazed by the taste of the rice.
"You rice, it's delicious!" He used to smell the aroma of rice when he was cooking.
"I brought this rice from the earth." She was carrying Daohuaxiang No. 2.
"With such delicious rice, you can eat several large bowls without any dishes." Fang Yu took a few bites.
"Yes! The rice from the country of South Vietnam was so unpalatable that I endured it for a long time. ”
When Chen Xiao first arrived, he was not afraid to swallow the rice of Nanyue, at least it was like eating chaff - so he made heavy dishes to eat. But after eating for a long time, I gradually got used to it.
"Why don't you take out such delicious rice and eat it?" Fang Yu has no opinion on the rice of South Vietnam, but he doesn't know what rice is delicious without comparison.
"Do I dare to take it out? Don't show enough stuffing? ”
"You can grow this kind of rice outside, just like chili peppers."
"The climate here is not suitable for growing this rice." Chen Xiao brought rice seeds, but the perennial high temperature in Nanyue country will change the rice planted.
"What kind of climate is suitable?"
"Curious baby, let's eat! If you have to eat, eat it quickly, and when you finish eating, it will be gone. Chen Xiao only brought a few hundred catties of rice. Because the quality of milled rice will deteriorate after a long time. Although she dislikes rice from South Vietnam, she is not a picky eater, but "if you have rice, you don't eat bran", and she eats without rice bran.
Fang Yu heard her call herself "Curious Baby" again, and said with a smile: "You can call me Baby in the future." ”
Chen Xiaobai glanced at him: "Such a big person, if I call you baby in front of others in the future, won't you be embarrassed?" ”
Fang Yu thought about it and said, "Shout in private." ”
Chen Xiao knew that he wanted to have an affectionate title, but she couldn't shout the word "baby". He was her husband, not her son.
Fang Yu finished eating a bowl of rice and went to serve another bowl.
Chen Xiao found that he hadn't eaten a mouthful of Tom Yum Gong soup, and asked:
"Don't you like the smell of Tom Yum?"
Fang Yu hesitated, picked up a slice of squid in the soup, and ate it a little painfully.
Chen Xiaodao: "Forget it, don't eat if you don't like it, don't force yourself." ”
"It's not. It's just ......" Fang Yu frowned.
"Everyone has their own food that they can't accept, I understand." Just like the polarizing evaluation of foods such as folded ear root, bean juice, toon, and durian, those who like it love it very much, and those who don't like it will spit it out when they eat it.
"Is there anything you don't eat?" Fang Yu asked.
Chen Xiao thought for a while: "It doesn't seem to be." At least not yet. ”
Fang Yu looked at the Tom Yum Gong soup on the table, thought about it, and scooped a small sip of the soup to taste.
In fact, he didn't hate the taste of tom yum soup, but hated the taste of "dead fish and rotten shrimp" in it. It reminded him of dying of the smell of rot on his body......
"Don't force it." Chen Xiao stopped him from drinking the soup.
"We live together, and if you like to eat, I'll try to be consistent with you."
"There's no need."
"It's not that I hate this soup. I don't like the shrimp inside, it's not fresh anymore. Fang Yu tried to be as tactful as possible.
Chen Xiao knew that the smell of ice shrimp cooking soup was a bit heavy, and said: "There are not many shrimps left, in fact, it is still okay to change the method." ”
"Hmm." Fang Yu smiled and stopped talking about this topic.
He said, "You teach me how to use those things in your kitchen, and I'll cook later." ”
Chen Xiao smiled: "Do you know how to cook?" ”
"Of course."
"Why haven't I seen you do it before?"
"There are spring red and small stones, so why should I do it."
From all aspects, it can be seen that Fang Yu still knows how to cook, but in terms of cooking taste, he may not dare to compliment.
Chen Xiaodao: "Our life is mainly outside, you don't need to cook here. ”
She has been alone for many years, and she has been doing everything by herself, and she has never thought of finding a cook. What's more, she is a foodie, and what Fang Yu makes is probably not what she wants to eat.
"At least while we're in Jinghe, we're going to cook here!" Fang Yudao.
Chen Xiao didn't like the food and drink along the way outside. When she was in the Chunji Courtyard, she could do it according to her own taste, but when she went out, she couldn't expose the secret of Heishi before, and she barely ate outside. Now that the secret of the Black Stone has been pierced, they will both eat and live in the Black Stone after that.
Chen Xiao thought about it: It's not bad for someone to cook. He is willing to share the burden, so why should he carry it alone.
"Okay, I'll teach you how to use the various appliances in the house."
……
There are rice cookers, induction cookers, microwave ovens, ovens, steamers, etc.; There are meat grinders, kitchen machines, wall breakers and so on; Kitchen and bathroom have dishwashers, range hoods, and water purifiers. In addition, there are washing machines, sweeping robots, window cleaning robots, vacuum cleaners, and so on.
I have to say that Chen Xiao is a person who is very good at life. If she can do it with the machine, she won't do it herself.
……
The first thing Fang Yu learned was to use a dishwasher. He had offered to wash the dishes, but he just had to put the dishes in.
He looked at the dirty floor from the kitchen to the living room, and asked, "Where is the rag to wipe the floor?" ”
The whole room was clean, and he wanted to wipe it off.
Chen Xiao smiled slightly, walked to the aisle, and shouted, "OK, YIKO." ”
"I'm here." A voice came from the drying balcony at the end of the hallway.
"Cleaning the kitchen and living room."
"Okay."
I saw a white round box move over, and something was spinning under the box.
"What is this?" Fang Yu is very novel.
"Robot vacuum."
Fang Yu followed the sweeping robot for a while, and found that where it passed, the floor was swept clean and the dirt was also wiped clean.
"Will it mop the floor?"
"yes, don't worry about it, it will do it itself."
After speaking, Chen Xiao said, "It's time for us to go out." ”
"Get out?" Fang Yu was puzzled: "We slept here at night!" ”
"Not tonight, there's still someone outside."
"What's not going to work, we'll go out tomorrow morning."
"In case they find out that there is no one in our tent, there is only a snake. I'm never at ease. ”
Fang Yu thought for a moment. I don't know what the white worm is like outside?
He can transmit sound from the outside to the white worm in the black stone, but it is inconvenient to transmit sound from the black stone to the outside. Because he transmitted the sound to the white snake, he relied on simple identification. When the white snake was in the space, it was a beast soul and Chen Xiao was a human soul, and he transmitted the sound to the beast soul, but Chen Xiao couldn't hear it. But when he transmits from the inside to the outside, there are so many horses outside, although their souls are not strong, but they are not without it, and these horses will sense that they are called. Of course, the horse may not understand what he means, but it will cause the horse to panic.
It should be explained here that Fang Yu has no soul connection with the white dragon, so he can only transmit sound through this method. If he establishes a soul connection with the White Snake, he can transmit to the White Snake alone.
PS: If you still don't understand, imagine this: just like WeChat group chat and private chat, he and Bai Yi haven't added friends yet. (Just a metaphor)
