Chapter 28: The Gentleman Cooks Far Away

After finishing the business, Xu Huaiyi turned his head and saw that his daughter had fallen asleep, and he didn't know what kind of dream he had, and he smiled at the corner of his mouth......

So reluctant to let go?

That could only be forcibly dismantled, Xu Huaiyi said just do it, leaned over without hesitation, carefully broke his daughter's little fist, and then gently wrapped it in his palm.

After doing all this, he glanced at Gu Xiaoyu.

How do you describe the looks? Anyway, Gu Xiaoyu couldn't describe it, but he felt that when he first saw Xu Huaiyi, the image of the heroic and brazen soldier left to him collapsed again.

It's not enough to just show in your eyes, Xu Huaiyi snorted, "Your strength is not as big as a milk doll?" Can't pull out your fingers when they're clutched? Wouldn't anyone want to bully from now on? ”

Gu Xiaoyu, "......"

He's not so weak and incompetent, and besides, it's a matter of whose strength is it?

But he didn't argue, because he always felt that it was a bit naΓ―ve to do that.

Gu Huanxi had already been defeated by his naivety, and he was afraid that he would say something more naΓ―ve, so he had to start teasing people, "Okay, let's cook, I'm hungry......"

The words of the daughter-in-law are the holy decree, Xu Huaiyi was busy responding, but when he left, he did not forget to shout his cheap son, "Xiaoyu, come with your father, teach you how to cook for your father." ”

A voice is a father, and the corners of Gu Huanxi's mouth twitched when he listened, he really couldn't stand this enemy! It's really good to be able to compete with a four or five-year-old child!

Gu Xiaoyu got off the kang expressionlessly, and followed behind with a blank face.

Very good, in addition to washing clothes, he will have to learn how to cook in the future, and he won't even know how to be a female celebrity in the future, right?

The cooking shed, fortunately, is in the shade under the plane tree, otherwise just burning the fire is enough to suffer, Xu Huaiyi rolled up his sleeves, washed the pot and washed the rice neatly, while working, his mouth muttered, "See how much rice I put in it, right?" Too much is not good, too thick and paste, like eating dry rice, too little is not good, the clear soup is not watery, it tastes no taste when drinking, so much rice, with this more water is just right, this is the valuable experience I have summed up over the years, I don't tell him about ordinary people, and now I share it with you for free......"

Gu Xiaoyu, "......"

He wasn't moved.

"Millet porridge is the most nourishing, your mother is still in confinement, it is best to drink this, otherwise, now that the weather is hot, it is more appropriate to drink mung bean soup, especially if it is sprinkled with white sugar and chilled, it is called a refreshing ......"

Gu Xiaoyu asked, "Is there an ice seller in the town here?" ”

Xu Huaiyi said without changing his face, "It's chilled in a well, don't you know?" The temperature at the bottom of the well is much cooler than above, the weather is hot, and the uneaten meals are packed in baskets, and then tied with ropes and hung at the bottom of the well, which can keep them from being bad for several days......" The words fell, tsk a few times, and said with some disgust, "Not only are you weak, but this knowledge and knowledge is far from enough, and you will study well for your father in the future, you know?" ”

Gu Xiaoyu pursed his lips, "...... Be! ”

After hitting this kid twice, Xu Huaiyi felt comfortable, and when the rice boiled, he skillfully put a grate on the pot, and heated the buns he bought at noon, and let Gu Xiaoyu look at the stove, and he began to prepare the dishes for the evening.

Tomatoes, peppers, potatoes and the like couldn't be taken out, so he had to choose cucumbers and beans, turned his head and asked Gu Xiaoyu, "What kind of food do you like to eat?" ”

Gu Xiaoyu said, "Listen to your ......"

Xu Huaiyi nodded with satisfaction, "This consciousness is good, and I will continue to maintain it in the future, let me tell you, children must not be picky eaters, picky eaters will not grow tall." ”

Gu Xiaoyu, "......"

He didn't know if picky eating would affect his height, but he felt that he would learn a lot of strange knowledge from this father in the future.

Xu Huaiyi decided to make cucumber scrambled eggs, beans fried bacon, determined the recipe, quickly selected vegetables, washed vegetables, and showed off a knife when cutting vegetables, and then raised his eyebrows proudly at Gu Xiaoyu.

Gu Xiaoyu, "......"

He didn't realize that there was nothing to show off and be proud of in his excellent knife work.

However, when the dish came out of the pot, he smelled the fragrance, and he couldn't help but be surprised, he didn't expect that his father was not a fancy man, but his cooking skills were really good?

He couldn't hold back for a while, he asked puzzled and curious, "Don't you say that the gentleman is far away from cooking......

When Xu Huaiyi heard this, he immediately seemed to have caught some of his pigtails, and said excitedly, "I'll just say that you can't learn, right?" Listen, something went wrong, you let people outside listen to it, you have to laugh at you......"

Gu Xiaoyu blushed, bent down and saluted, "Please also ask my father for advice." ”

Xu Huaiyi said proudly, "You say first, what does the gentleman mean by this?" ”

Gu Xiaoyu pondered, "It means that a gentleman needs to stay away from the kitchen affairs of killing chickens and sheep, cutting meat and cooking. ”

Xu Huaiyi frowned, "Don't you know, then why are you still mistaken?" ”

Gu Xiaoyu was confused.

In the house, Gu Huanxi couldn't listen anymore, and shouted, "Is the meal ready?" ”

"Alright, alright, daughter-in-law, are you hungry? I'll bring it in for you......" Xu Huaiyi couldn't take care of the side anymore, and urged Gu Xiaoyu to help with the dishes and chopsticks.

Gu Xiaoyu, "......"

What could he do? You can only obey.

The small table for eating is propped up in the hall, and when eating, there is no rule of not saying anything when eating or sleeping, to be precise, contrary to this rule, you never stop talking.

"Daughter-in-law, what do you think of the taste of this bun? Isn't it as delicious as the stuffing I made? ”

"Well, it's okay."

"This egg, you eat more, just taste a slice of bacon, the spices in it are too heavy, you still have to feed your daughter, and then we will open up and eat in the future, first grievances......"

"I know, you eat yours quickly, Xiaoyu, don't just eat steamed buns, eat vegetables too, your father fried a lot of vegetables......"

"Yes, thank you, mother......"

This is completely different from his previous days, but inexplicably, he thinks that this seems to be very good, as if the shackles have been removed from his shoulders, and his body and mind have become lighter.

When the food was almost finished, Gu Huanxi asked casually, "Xiaoyu, what books have you read before?" ”

Gu Xiaoyu subconsciously got up to answer, and then ...... I couldn't help it, but my voice was still a little respectful, "The "Three Character Classic" and "Hundred Family Names", as well as "Thousand Character Text", and "Analects" have just started to learn. ”

Gu Huanxi nodded, "Well, you have read so many books at a young age, and compared to children of the same age, you are already ahead of them, which is very good......"

Gu Xiaoyu glanced at Xu Huaiyi, "My mother praised me, my son's knowledge and knowledge are far from enough, and he still needs to study hard by his father's side." ”

Xu Huaiyi, "......"

It feels like it was connotated.

Gu Huanxi couldn't help but laugh, and asked again, "Then do you know where the gentleman's words come from?" ”

Gu Xiaoyu shook his head.

Gu Huanxi said, "From "Mencius", you haven't learned it yet, it's normal not to understand, the whole text is 'no harm, it is a benevolent technique, and you don't see a sheep when you see a cow." A gentleman is also to beasts, seeing their life, and not being able to bear to see their death; Hearing its voice, he couldn't bear to eat his meat, and he was a gentleman who was far away from cooking. What does that mean? It means that a gentleman should stay away from flesh killing, have a benevolent heart, and can't bear to see killing, so staying away from the kitchen does not mean that a gentleman should not enter the kitchen and be ashamed to cook. ”

Xu Huaiyi immediately chimed in, "Yes, yes, that's what I meant before......"

Gu Xiaoyu, "......"

Why didn't he hear it before?
