Chapter Ninety-Eight: Celebrating Hot Pot

Xie Shu opened his eyes again, and it was almost 11 o'clock. Thinking of the promise made in front of the building last night, today I will cook and prepare lunch by myself, Xie Shu did not continue to nest in the bed, the spring water she drank before going to bed has replenished her with sufficient energy and physical strength, she is full of energy and physical strength after sleeping, and she can even go directly to the treadmill to sweat for an hour.

After getting up and washing, Xie Shu glanced at his mobile phone, more than twenty minutes ago, in the small group of three, Mo Yangyang was bubbling.

[Is Shu Shu awake? 】

[Yang Yang has been waiting for you~]

Xie Shu pursed his lips and chuckled, replied and immediately went down, and dodged into the space first. Since he said that he would cook in person, thinking that after the rainstorm, although Mo Yangyang and Liang Xiaozhen had some reserves, but because they did not have sufficient supplements, they had always been frugal, and they had not eaten an "indulgent meal" for a long time, Xie Shu thought about taking out some suitable food from the space before going to bed last night. If you want to show off your skills, you can mobilize the whole kitchen, and the ingredients will be used in turn, and sometimes, just for a bite of broth, you can simmer chicken, pig's trotters, bacon, shellfish, etc. for hours.

But now, although there are plenty of ingredients, equipment, and plenty of time, there is no reason to serve it to the table. Therefore, you can only choose some suitable ingredients, and you can still take out the ingredients that can be taken out in the current situation where the food has been cut off for a long time.

At this time, Xie Shu walked around in the wing room to choose suitable ingredients, the ingredients should not be too eye-catching, after so long, such as fresh beef and mutton, eggs, etc., any kind of can't be taken out directly. But fortunately, although there has been a complete power outage, Xie Shu has shown Liang Mo and the others the existence of the generator here, as well as a small freezer, so it seems much more reasonable to take out frozen products, even meat.

So Xie Shu took out two boxes of fat beef rolls and all kinds of meatballs in the frozen goods area, which they got when they bought the goods after they took down the supermarket. Although it takes a lot of effort to go around, compared to the fresh supply from the market and the slaughterhouse, the supermarket stock naturally has a longer shelf life, and it is more convenient to take out the hand in some cases in the days to come. took out the beef and meatballs, Xie Shu decided, and went down to cook the hot pot to eat after a while, as for the soup base, the water was too bland, and the mushrooms needed the bottom soup to season and couldn't get out, so I chose tomatoes. The tomatoes for cooking the soup base can't be fresh, then take a small can of canned tomatoes instead, sesame paste and other ingredients from the kitchen to take the leftovers, all unopened packaging materials, will also appear abrupt, as for the others, green onions can be picked downstairs fresh, you can also pick a little other fresh vegetables, and then take some dried vegetables, and then go down to soak in water to get off the hot pot.

After cleaning up, Xie Shu took out a piece of mineral water and poured the original water into the kettle in the living room, while the empty bottle was filled with some spring water from the jade pool. Last night's battle went through a lot of twists and turns, and after the whole process was over, both physically and mentally exhausted. Due to the connection it may have with abilities and the secret space behind it, Xie Shu didn't dare to share it with the two of them, but it was good to use it a few times in a few times to relieve fatigue.

After packing up his things, Xie Shu went downstairs with two full plastic bags.

……

"You don't have to bring so many things with you to cook, do you? Brought so much, Shu Shu, do you have enough to eat there? Mo Yangyang opened the door, and when he saw that Xie Shu was carrying so many things, he hurriedly went up to help bring it to the kitchen.

"Didn't you say I'll cook, celebrate, let's have hot pot at noon today."

"Wow! Are you sure!? It's been a long time since I've eaten hot pot! Really! Really! Shu Shu said to eat hot pot at noon today! Mo Yangyang rushed to the living room to share with Liang Xiaozhen with a happy face.

Liang Xiaozhen was a little surprised when he heard the hot pot, and then he smiled a little, and walked to the kitchen, Liang Xiaozhen asked, "If you cook hot pot, is the food enough?" Seeing Mo Yangyang so happy, Liang Xiaozhen would not pour cold water and directly propose that eating hot pot is too extravagant at this moment, after all, compared to others, their food reserves are quite sufficient, although hot pot is precious, but in the final analysis, the ingredients are just things that are often eaten.

"The beef and meatballs have been frozen in my freezer for a long time, and I bought them before the rainstorm, and I have not been willing to dismantle them, but fortunately there is a generator, otherwise these would not have been preserved until now." Xie Shu explained to Liang Xiaozhen while cleaning up, "The vegetables are only dried vegetables from before, let's soak them in water and then cook the hot pot, the taste will not be bad after all." After speaking, Xie Shu also raised his hand and shook the dried vegetables in his hand, which were not sumptuous.

"I'll help you, there are instant noodles here, and more vegetables." Liang Xiaozhen took out instant noodles and dried vegetables directly from the cabinet where the food was placed, "I'll soak the vegetables." ”

Xie Shu also saw the food reserves of the two of them, and knew in his heart, "Okay, then I'll cook the bottom of the pot." ”

"I, me, me! And me! I'm here to help, too! After Mo Yangyang was happy, he also ran in the living room, and the three of them prepared lively, not caring about the special ingredients, but looking at this scene, it seems that there has never been a rainstorm and last night's fighting.

……

Not long after, a tomato soup pot was placed on the dining table in the living room, and Xie Shu turned on the induction cooker to keep the bottom of the pot boiling. Mo Yangyang brought a few small plates back and forth, and was very active about eating hot pot. There was no drink on the table, although it was a celebration of the eradication of a nest of robbers led by Wang Pengyu, but the current situation could not make them toast and shout, after all, they had to avoid the people downstairs, but with the iron gate outside, the three of them were not restrained as before, and they were more relaxed in comparison.

As soon as Xie Shu took his seat, Mo Yangyang proposed that the three of them touch each other with dipping bowls to celebrate. "Shushu, thank you so much." Putting down the dishes and chopsticks, Xie Shu began to put the beef into the pot, and before he could start to eat it, Mo Yangyang opened his mouth and looked at it carefully, there seemed to be tears in his eyes. Liang Xiaozhen glanced at Mo Yangyang, and also turned his head to look at Xie Shu firmly, "I'm also very grateful, Shu Shu, if it weren't for you, I don't know what kind of life Yang Yang and I would have now." ”

"I thought about it for a long time before going to bed last night, I have been dragging you back too much, obviously Shushu you should need protection more, but the person who is protected has always been me." As soon as the words fell, the tears that had been rolling in Mo Yangyang's eyes fell.

Seeing this, Xie Shu hurriedly stepped forward and wiped away Mo Yangyang's tears with a tissue, "They are all friends, today is a celebration, it's not good to shed tears." After speaking, he picked up Mo Yangyang's chopsticks again, put a piece of fat beef into the bowl for her, patted her back and comforted, "Eat quickly, if you cook it again, the fat cow will not be tender." ”

"Xiao Zhen too, let's eat quickly." After speaking, he looked at Liang Xiaozhen, raised his head and motioned for the other party to hurry up and eat meat.

Mo Yangyang wiped a handful of tears, picked up the bowl and lowered his head, and picked up the fat cowroll with chopsticks, "Hmm! Rest assured! I, Mo Yangyang, will definitely protect you well! After saying that, he stuffed the fat beef roll into his mouth and said, "It's delicious!" It's so delicious! Hearing Mo Yangyang say that it was delicious, Xie Shu also smiled, "Eat more if it's delicious, although there is a freezer, it can't be frozen all the time." ”

……

"Ahh Delicious! The bottom of the pot cooked by Shu Shu is so fragrant, I feel better after eating! ”

Hearing this, Xie Shu understood in his heart that when boiling the bottom of the pot, Xie Shu deliberately added half a bottle of spring water to brought, although the effect was definitely not as good as drinking it directly, but only in this way could he use the hot pot to cover up the effect of spring water to relieve fatigue, which was not strange. "It's good to eat happily, don't cry casually in the future, we can't say what will happen in the future, just be ready to deal with it." After eating and drinking, the three of them discussed the future again, either expectantly or lonely.

"But then again, Shu Shu, those people downstairs, we just don't care?" Liang Xiaozhen asked.

"Logically, we don't have to worry about anything, but they originally wanted to go to the official base, and now Wang Pengyu's ships are here, and it should be okay to squeeze a few ships."

After a discussion, the three of them finalized the way to deal with it, not to take the initiative to drive away the people in the building, but to temporarily come forward as an image of suppression and management, so that they would not have inexplicable conflicts again, and also avoid the appearance of the next "Wang Pengyu".
