After arriving at the apartment, the two returned to their respective homes.

A pound of pork ribs, as well as the bag of vegetables, were brought to him by Chen Yuan.

Because he had a small table in his room, it was more convenient to eat on his side.

And Xia Xinyu's home is relatively empty.

A bed, a bedside table, a desk, and that's it.

Therefore, this cute bear, as an important soft decoration in the home, instantly made her room much more enriched.

Is it at the desk or at the head of the bed......

After thinking about it, Xia Xinyu finally placed the big bear doll on the desk, facing the lamp on the side. In this way, when I do my homework in the future, I can see this pink doll with a black nose as soon as I look up.

"Good."

Gently patting his hand on the doll bear's hat, Xia Xinyu was like his own pet, full of love, and his eyes narrowed with a smile.

Suddenly, the hat slipped off the bear's head and fell on the table.

"......" looked at the white on the top of the pink cute doll bear's head, Xia Xinyu seemed to be shattered, and his eyes were distracted.

Bald...... Baldness?

Xia Xinyu hurriedly put the hat back on the top of the cute bear's head, and the appearance of the doll was also greatly improved, but ......

Please, give me a pair of eyes that haven't seen a bald cute bear!

No, the image in my head is completely lingering.

Under the entanglement, Xia Xinyu opened the drawer, took out the sewing box, and sewed the hat on it with threads of similar colors.

Then, put it back on.

I haven't seen it, I haven't seen it, I haven't seen it......

Xia Xinyu covered her eyes with her hands, repeatedly recited this sentence in her heart, and hypnotized herself.

"Sure enough, it's cute."

Looking at the big doll again, Xia Xinyu smiled happily.

In fact, the appearance of the cute bear's bald head has been completely imprinted in his mind, and he can't get rid of it at all......

However, even if it was really a bald bear, Xia Xinyu did not lose his love for it.

In fact, when Chen Yuan won the first prize and gave the bear to herself without thinking about it, she wanted to accept it.

The natural and natural gift made her know that the distance between the two people had quietly disappeared.

Although she didn't hesitate when she exchanged the doll for that pound of ribs, after doing it, her heart seemed to be really empty......

An emptiness that is difficult to describe in words.

When she was a child, she saw that the girl in the neighborhood had a particularly beautiful dress, and her mother noticed her envy and said that she would buy her one too.

At that time, she actually wanted that dress very much, but she knew that it was expensive, and she also knew that her mother would buy it for herself even if it was expensive......

So, in the end, she told her mother that she had seen the hairpin on the neighbor's girl's head and wanted one.

Later, she got that hairpin.

She was a little happy because the hairpin was also very good-looking.

But when she was happy, she also felt a sense of loss, because what she wanted more was a dress.

Over the years, she has also grown up in love, but she understands her parents' difficulties and is very sensible, so she will deliberately lower her expectations and show her joy after getting 'love'.

Today, the same is being done.

She asked Chen Yuan, and when she chose, she retreated to his 'second'.

The difference is.

I didn't get a skirt that year.

Today, I got the doll myself.

"You're so cute!"

Holding the cute bear on the table in her arms, Xia Xinyu rolled happily on the bed.

Who would have imagined that a girl who is usually so quiet at school that she rarely takes the initiative to speak is ...... when she is alone at home?

It's so nerve-wracking.

………

After returning home, Chen Yuan put down his schoolbag and prepared today's dinner.

Xia Xinyu said to go back and put something down, and wait for him to come over and take charge of the spoon, so Chen Yuan is mainly dealing with the dishes now.

What you want to eat for this meal is a braised pork ribs, a ham sausage left over from the egg scrambled refrigerator, and lettuce leaves.

What Chen Yuan has to do now is to blanch the ribs.

"It's worthy of the second prize, it's all in the middle row."

The quality of the pork ribs in the lottery is not with meat leg chops, but a pound of middle ribs that have been cut evenly, and this one should be in the thirties.

Therefore, the living expenses of 167 yuan are only theoretically able to eat well, and if you don't ask your parents for a little, ask a friend to borrow a little, and Zhou Yu rob a little, you can only expect this kind of skyfall...... Row.

But this is no accident.

Superpowers are used to gather wool.

Starting point city male protagonist: Dude, it's a shame to use your superpowers, quit the group.

Put half a pot of cold water, throw the ribs in, put the green onion and ginger, sprinkle with cooking wine, wait for the pot to boil and foam, take out the ribs, wash them with water, and the blanching process is officially completed.

The next step is to fry the pork ribs in oil until golden brown on both sides, add star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves, light soy sauce, oil, salt...... Of course, this is all the process that Chen Yuan thinks, but Xia Xinyu said that the practical step must be left to her.

Although it is a great blessing in life to have a little chef to cook for herself, this kind of complete denial of the cooking skills that you have learned in more than a year......

Knock knock.

There was a knock on the door, and Chen Yuan went to open the door.

"You didn't start doing it, did you?"

As soon as he saw himself, Xia Xinyu asked directly, as if he was afraid that he would destroy the pound of the best middle class.

[Yo yo yo, the chef is here, it's amazing, you]

Well, Chen Yuan heard his own heart.

This is the first time.

The law that superpowers can't be used on oneself was perfectly broken by the yin and yang weird qi that Chen Yuan couldn't wait to overflow.

Chen Yuan said: "I blanched the water. ”

"Well, I'll do it next."

After Xia Xinyu walked in, he skillfully tied the apron on his body, and then put oil to fry the ribs.

"Help me make a pot of boiling water, thank you." Xia Xin didn't raise his head and shouted to Chen Yuan.

After connecting a full pot with tap water, Chen Yuan boiled a pot at the position of the socket and then used the wonderful tool of braised pork ribs - boiling water.

"Let's cook the rice, just put a small box for two people, and after scooping the rice, the water level will reach the second joint of the middle finger."

As a chef with a monthly salary of 8,000, Xia Xinyu skillfully deployed Chen Yuan's apprenticeship with a monthly salary of 1,000 and a half.

"That's it, and then?" After pressing the rice cooker, Chen Yuan asked.

"Your work is over, go and rest." Xia Xinyu grinned at him, "Or, learn English for half an hour?" ”

Are you my mother......

"Don't you need me to do anything else?" Girls also have to do their homework, and they have to go to class tomorrow, even if they are a little chef, Chen Yuan doesn't want her to be burdened so much.

"No, because it's a single stove, you can't do anything at the same time. After I stew the ribs, I'll go over and learn English with you. ”

After Xia Xinyu fried the pork ribs to almost perfect golden brown on both sides, like a magician, he grabbed a handful of ingredients, no more, no less, and poured hot water into the pot seamlessly at the moment when the kettle was boiling. Then, he began to look for something similar to yellow rock candy, and without even asking himself, he directly found the remaining rock candy from the corner of a cabinet that Chen Yuan didn't remember, threw it into the pot, covered it and turned around to clean the lettuce leaves......

What happened in the past few minutes made Chen Yuan's concept of cooking collapse in an instant.

No, is it interspersed with the cooking on the way to the "slot, oil." It's the oil that splashes when it comes into contact with water! "Star anise cinnamon bay leaf... Isn't it cinnamon? "If you're confused, turn off the fire first!" "And so on, not everyone has to go through?

I'm sorry, not only can't I learn the fourth middle school, but even cooking has been seconded......

"Ahh

Just as Chen Yuan was sitting at the small table and about to open his English textbook, he suddenly heard a cry from the kitchen.

"What's wrong?!"

Xia Xinyu is the kind of girl who will be quiet even when she commits suicide, and it is obviously not normal to make such a scream, so Chen Yuan hurriedly rushed over.

Then, I saw Xia Xinyu standing in front of the chopping board and covering her face, crying 'woo'.

The crying is not very sad, because it is not choked, but it can be heard that the crying is very 'heart-wrenching'.

[Ahhh Woo woo ......】

No, why is my voice crying?

I don't know what other people think in their hearts, what do I want this superpower to do?

Let's do something, Chaoson!

Looking Xia Xinyu up and down, Chen Yuan asked, "Burned?" ”

Xia Xinyu shook her head.

"See cockroaches?"

Keep shaking your head.

"Electrocuted?"

Still shaking his head.

In the kitchen, the physical and psychological situations that can be encountered are ruled out, and his heart is still crying, as if he guessed something, Chen Yuan, who took out a few tissues, walked to Xia Xinyu, gently grabbed her wrist, and wiped her tears for her: "Did you think of something?" Cry out......"

It must have been touching the scene, thinking of the appearance of my mother when she was cooking, and the sudden sadness hit.

But "Ah! How do you understand the sound of "?

Wow!

When Chen Yuan wiped his tears, Xia Xinyu, whose eyes were filled with tears, raised his hand, pointed to the cutting board, and finally spoke: "Eggs...... It's broken. ”

“……”

Chen Yuan revealed, 'Huh? 's incomprehensible look.

That's it?

He didn't understand what there was to cry about.

It's good to throw away the broken eggs, and if my Chen family declines, I won't cry because of a bad egg, right?

"Because the first three ...... All three were good, and after the fourth one went in, the bad ass liquid flowed in front of me...... I just watched ...... Yes! ”

After describing this desperate scene where the listener was sad and the listener was crying, Xia Xinyu turned around, squatted on the ground, covered his face, and cried out in a broken whimper......
