Chapter 440: Wen Leyu's Changes
Before dinner, in the kitchen of the Zaojun Temple courtyard, three young men stood in front of the stove, one in front and two behind.
“Sizzle~”
A pair of fair little hands threw a handful of diced meat into the peanut oil at a temperature of over 200 degrees. A puff of green smoke burst out with a sizzling sound, and then with a bang, a burst of flame suddenly burst out.
Wen Leyu, who was standing in front of the wok, couldn't help but wanted to step back, but just as his right foot moved back a little, it was stopped abruptly and he stood back in front of the wok.
Li Ye, who was standing behind Wen Leyu, also felt nervous and said weakly, "The mutton was put in a little too late. The oil was too hot."
Wen Leyu didn't even turn his head and said in a bad tone: "Stop talking nonsense. Are the chopped green onions ready?"
"Ah, chopped green onions?" Li Ye quickly turned his head and asked Fu Yiru, "Xiaoru, have you cut the green onions?"
"I have cut my brother and my sister-in-law."
Fu Yiruo held back her laughter and placed a small bowl of chopped green onions in front of Wen Leyu.
Today, Wen Leyu suddenly had to take on the position of head chef, and the brother and sister were arranged to be apprentices helping out. She had to assist well and not hold her sister-in-law back.
Wen Leyu calmly swung the wok, added seasonings and chopped green onions, and finally made a dish of stir-fried lamb.
Li Ye quickly took a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off Wen Leyu's face. He felt really distressed to see how anxious the little girl was.
"Xiao Yu, how about I take care of the remaining two dishes? Did you burn your hands just now? Go get some badger oil to wipe them off."
"No need," Wen Leyu said with a firm look in his eyes, "Where are the eggs? Have you beaten them? If you have, we can make the next dish."
“.”
Li Ye couldn't help but ask: "Did you cook like this the last few times you cooked?"
Wen Leyu pursed her lips, mumbled for a while, and then blurted out, "It's much more exciting than this."
Li Ye couldn't persuade her anymore, because looking at Wen Leyu's expression at the moment, she looked like the leader of a sharp knife platoon fighting an offensive. If you try to persuade her again, she might turn around and shoot you.
Although Wen Leyu had gone through a few years of hard times, Teacher Ke was a strong woman and had always protected her daughter well.
So after entering university, Wen Leyu officially began to learn cooking from Li Ye.
But she soon tasted the joy of being a "little apprentice". She washed the vegetables for Li Ye, then took a bath herself. After she was done washing, it was time for dinner. She then washed the dishes. It was so pleasant to work and enjoy together.
And when their elder sister Li Yue came, the two younger ones felt even more at ease and waited for food, and they lived a very comfortable life.
But now that Li Yue is married, if she wants to improve her life by not eating in the cafeteria, she must go back to cooking for herself.
Originally, Li Ye was planning to take on too much responsibility. After all, with his physical strength, knife skills, and eyesight, cooking was like a piece of cake for him.
But Wen Leyu has "changed".
She announced arrogantly that Li Ye would no longer be the chef, and all meals at home would be prepared by Miss Wen, with the reason being "It's different now than before."
As for why it was different, she did not explain it in detail to Li Ye, but Li Ye's feeling was that since the two families had "talked it out" about their affairs, Wen Leyu subconsciously thought that she had the "responsibility" to take care of Li Ye's life.
This caught Li Ye off guard. He felt warm and touched, yet awkward.
After all, Wen Leyu had the experience of independently completing three dishes and a soup several times before. Li Ye didn't see her cooking, but the taste of the dish was really long-lasting.
Half an hour later, the three dishes and one soup were ready. Li Ye and Fu Yiruo placed the four dishes on the table with admiration, and then devoured them without thinking twice.
At this time, don't worry about the smell, just dig it up quickly.
Planing slowly is disrespectful to others.
In fact, the taste is still good, at least much better than Wen Leyu’s previous independent works.
But after tasting each dish, Wen Leyu humbly reflected on himself and said, "There are some shortcomings. I will definitely improve next time."
This made Li Ye very helpless.
If it was those girlfriends in the previous life who made such a promise, Li Ye would have to reward them with a bouquet of roses, otherwise he might improve the taste next time and make it so hard for you to swallow.
But after Wen Leyu said this, Li Ye felt that he would probably have to enjoy the treatment of "food provided for him just by opening his mouth" for the rest of his life.
This, this, this. What virtue and ability do I have?
Bullshit, so pretentious!
After finishing the meal, Fu Yiru rushed to wash the dishes, while Li Ye whispered, "Xiao Yu, you don't have to force yourself to do something. Just do whatever you like, just like before."
Wen Leyu looked at the affectionate Li Ye for a long time before blushing and saying, "My mother told me that I should be nicer to you now, because in a few years, I might only be half as nice to you as I am now."
Li Ye was shocked and asked anxiously, "What do you mean by halfway through? Shouldn't you be getting better and better to me?"
"I won't talk to you anymore, go away."
“.”
Li Ye scratched his hair speechlessly, then he suddenly understood.
Wen Leyu is really thinking ahead. He still has more than a year to graduate and hasn't even arranged his marriage yet! Has he already thought about giving half of his "love" to some little bastard in the future?
After Fu Yiru finished washing the dishes, she came in with a smile and said, "Sister-in-law, I have an appointment with a few classmates to study together today. You guys can chat slowly. I'll be leaving first!"
Li Ye immediately praised in his heart, saying that his sister was so sensible.
But Wen Leyu said, "Let's go back and study together. Now that the sister who is responsible for supervising us is gone, we must be self-disciplined."
Li Ye: “.”
Wen Leyu glanced at Li Ye secretly and smiled secretly.
Ever since the two families talked it out, Wen Leyu clearly felt that Li Ye was starting to "take advantage of the situation". In the past, he would take her hand and put his arm around her waist, and he would have to look for opportunities to test the waters, but now, he would just pull her in and hug her as if it was a matter of course.
Too overbearing and unreasonable.
So we must avoid such opportunities of being alone with the door closed.
. . . . . . . .
Li Ye hasn't been visiting the library of Peking University very often recently.
Ever since sister Li Yue arrived in the capital, Li Ye, Wen Leyu, and sometimes Pei Wenhui and Li Dayong all like to gather in the quadrangle of Zaojun Temple.
Have a delicious meal, then study on your own if you want, or watch "Blood Ties" in a row if you want. Life is so comfortable.
So Li Ye was a little uncomfortable when he suddenly came to the library again and had to compete with others for a seat.
This is just one of the reasons. The second reason is that after three people occupied four seats facing each other, there were always people coming over to disturb them.
"What a coincidence, Mr. Fu, is this empty seat taken?"
A boy with a short flat head and wearing a neat Zhongshan suit stood next to Fu Yiru and asked politely.
Li Ye, who was sitting opposite Fu Yiru, immediately stared coldly at the dark-faced boy in front of him, like a divine beast guarding a child.
The other person spoke fluent Chinese, but from the tone of his voice and the words he used, you could tell he was not a pure playboy.
Especially since he had two pens in his shirt pocket, he looked out of place like an ordinary student and more like an old-fashioned cadre.
Fu Yiruo smiled first, then said very politely: "I'm sorry, classmate Park, we have some private matters to discuss, and classmate Pei will be here later, I'm really sorry that I can't let you sit here."
Student Park, who was wearing a Zhongshan suit, looked dim and nodded, "That's a pity. I had a lot of interesting questions to discuss with you. Let's find another opportunity later!"
Fu Yiruo smiled without commenting, which was considered as giving the other person a way out.
But before Park turned around and left, he heard Wen Leyu say coldly: "You are already a junior, so go and discuss the problem with your classmates! Don't disturb the freshmen's studies."
“.”
Park's eyes changed rapidly, and there was a flash of sharpness.
He asked very seriously: "Excuse me, classmate, who are you?"
Wen Leyu looked at him coldly and said, "I'm Wen Leyu from the English Department of the class of 1982. You can go and complain to me, but I will also report your harassment of new students to the school."
“.”
Student Park looked at Wen Leyu in shock. After a long while, he said aggrievedly, "I'm sorry, you misunderstood me. I won't bother Student Fu again in the future."
Wen Leyu didn't say anything else, just nodded slowly and waved gently to signal Park to leave.
After the other party left, Li Ye asked, "He might really go and complain. Xiaoyu, you won't react too, right?"
Wen Leyu narrowed his eyes and said, "That depends on whether he knows the current situation. There are always some people who regard our kindness as their privilege. Such people should not be spoiled."
“.”
Fu Yiruo also said: "Yes, Sister Xiaoyu, that Pu Puwan seems very polite, but I always feel that he has a sense of superiority. I really don't understand where their sense of superiority comes from for such a small country?"
Li Ye smiled and said, "They are a country that can shoot down satellites with rifles. It's normal for them to be a little bit superior."
"What? Brother, what do you mean by that?"
Fu Yiru was very shocked, but Wen Leyu didn't react much. After all, she had seen some of these things before.
As for the country of North Korea, there are too many rumors in later generations. Generally speaking, in the multimedia age of information explosion, many unfriendly things will always be exposed to the public.
As early as the 1980s, North Korea's economic level might have been higher than that of the mainland, but a few years later, when the big brother in the north was unable to take care of itself, their situation was completely different.
After this sudden loss, all kinds of strange things naturally began to happen.
For example, there is a rumor in business: when doing business with India, please assume that the advance payment is the full payment; when doing business with North Korea, please include the value of the means of transportation in the transaction cost.
Although this may sound a bit sarcastic and is certainly biased in many ways, there is no smoke without fire, so there must be some reason for it, right?
"Hi, Li Ye, Li Ye"
Just when Li Ye was about to whisper to the two girls, Sun Xianjin came over and started shouting from a distance.
Li Ye had no choice but to say, "Be quiet, be quiet. Others are studying. What are you doing?"
But Sun Xianjin said excitedly: "Go check out the literature club! Gong Xian is here. We said last year that Pan Hong was here, so would Gong Xian and Zhang Yu come as well? Sure enough, they are here this year."
"Are they in such a hurry?"
Li Ye whispered, looking down at the script he was writing.
The script isn't even half finished yet and the actors are already here?
