Noticing Chu Yanyan coming in, she said without even looking up, "I'm hungry, hurry up and cook."
"Oh." Chu Yanyan walked into her room, put down her schoolbag and walked out.
Today, grandma went to the hospital, and there was no one to make lunch, so Chu Yanyan had to make it herself. She scooped a bowl of white rice, washed it, and used the rice washing water to water the vegetables. She used her index finger to measure the height of the water. She wiped the water from the bottom of the pot with a rag, put it in the rice cooker container, closed it, and plugged it in.
Then prepare today's dishes.
He went to the vegetable garden and pulled three carrots, one for eating and the other two for frying. He drew a basin of well water to wash the vegetables. For some reason, he always felt that well water tasted much better than tap water. In the summer, it was cool and sweet.
After cutting the carrots, he walked to the water tank in the kitchen and took out the pork tightly wrapped in plastic wrap.
There is no refrigerator at home, so I can only put the pork I just bought but can’t finish eating in a cool container and freeze it. I can take it out when I want to eat it.
Chu Yanyan was cutting pork carefully on the side. He turned his head to glance at the people in the room and couldn't help complaining to the system.
"Xiao Qi, that person is so lazy. I do everything."
"Or you can ask her to help you?" Tongzi suggested.
Thinking of Xu Jingjing's eldest daughter's temper, Chu Yanyan was immediately discouraged: "Then I might as well go find Shen Qihe." Shen Qihe lived with him, and Shen Qihe was the one who cut the vegetables and cooked. He was only responsible for washing the vegetables and making the fire.
"Yanyan, you are the best. Come on (? ??_??)?"
With Tongzi's encouragement, Chu Yanyan cut the pork. He put the cut pork and carrots in a stainless steel basin that could accommodate an electric rice cooker. Then he walked into the kitchen, poured in oil and salt, added some water, took the washed steaming rack and put it in the electric rice cooker, covered the pot, plugged in the power, and selected the cooking mode.
After finishing these, he went to his room, opened his schoolbag and started doing his homework.
Chu Yanyan hadn't written for long when Xu Jingjing started whining that she was hungry.
Chu Yanyan told her that the food was not ready yet. Xu Jingjing wanted to go to a nearby store to buy snacks, but she didn't know the way, so Chu Yanyan had to accompany her.
At noon, the sun is a bit poisonous.
There was a hot breeze in the air.
Xu Jingjing was sitting in the town's milk tea shop, enjoying the air conditioning. She bit her straw and glanced at Chu Yanyan, who was sitting off to the side, poking his straw at something. He looked so unfashionable, his face wasted. She put down her milk tea and glanced at him, "You've never had milk tea before, have you?"
Under the guidance of the system, Chu Yanyan successfully poked the tip of the straw in. He held the bottle of milk tea in both hands, bit the straw, and took a deep suck. Immediately, the sweet, cool liquid filled his mouth.
He gulped a few times, and when he heard Xu Jingjing's question, his eyelashes trembled and he nodded.
Is it weird to drink this kind of thing now? By the way, he only now knows that there is such a drink. It tastes so good. He will bring Shen Qihe over to drink it some other day!
Xu Jingjing didn't expect that this was Chu Yanyan's first time here. This place wasn't close to where they lived, so she didn't expect Chu Yanyan had never been here before. A hint of sympathy flashed in her eyes, and then she said boldly, "No dinner today. I'll treat you to a hamburger and fried chicken."
"But the family has already cooked." Chu Yanyan hesitated.
"Then let's wait until we get back tonight to eat." Xu Jingjing disagreed.
Chu Yanyan took a sip of the sweet milk tea, then put it on the table and said, "I don't have any money."
"It's okay, I can treat you to as many drinks as you want." Xu Jingjing didn't care about the small amount of money.
"Oh, then have another cup." He wanted to take it back for Shen Qihe to taste.
It was the first time in his life that Chu Yanyan ate a hot hamburger, which made him feel that the hamburger was similar to a meat bun, except that it also had lettuce and other ingredients. After eating it, his throat felt very thirsty and he couldn't help but want to drink water.
While eating, Chu Yanyan forgot the time to go to school.
Shen Qihe carried Chu Yanyan's schoolbag and finally found Chu Yanyan's location after asking others.
It was in a milk tea shop. When he walked in, the little fool was still waving his little feet and eating a hamburger happily with both hands.
When he went to look for Chu Yanyan, he found that no one was at home. He was so scared that he thought something had happened to Chu Yanyan. He was very panicked at that time, feeling like he was losing his other half, and it was so painful.
Unexpectedly, when he ran over to find her, Chu Yanyan was eating with Xu Jingjing, who used to be his rival and had conflicts with him. Looking at the way Chu Yanyan was eating, did he seem to be eating happily?
He couldn't help but grit his teeth. It was really all in vain that he worried.
Since Shen Qihe came in, Xu Jingjing noticed Shen Qihe's figure at a glance. She looked at Chu Yanyan who was eating with her head down: "Hey, look who's coming at the door."
Chu Yanyan: “???”
Chu Yanyan looked up at the door and saw Shen Qihe smiling at him. He immediately felt something was wrong. He took the things in his hand and trotted towards Shen Qihe, looking at Shen Qihe with shining eyes: "Brother! Why are you here?"
Shen Qihe said unhappily: “Don’t you see what time it is now.”
"What time is it?" Chu Yanyan grabbed Shen Qihe's electronic watch and looked at the time. It was already one o'clock, and their school closed at 13:10.
Chu Yanyan suddenly felt unwell. He ran to his original seat, picked up the unfinished milk tea, and left.
"You're leaving before you've even finished eating?" Xu Jingjing didn't understand his behavior.
"I'm going to school. You go home by yourself." Chu Yanyan answered her, ran to Shen Qihe, took the schoolbag in Shen Qihe's hand, and pulled Shen Qihe out.
Xu Jingjing looked at the two disappearing figures. She took a bite of the fried chicken leg and muttered softly, "Isn't it just a class? What's the rush?" She asked for leave and came with her parents to visit Grandma Chu because she didn't want to.
After coming out of the milk tea shop, Chu Yanyan handed the cup of milk tea in his hand to Shen Qihe: “Brother, try it, it’s delicious.”
Shen Qihe didn’t take it, but asked: “Did your cousin buy it?”
"It's almost like that, but she doesn't know that I bought this for you. This is my first time drinking it and it's delicious, so I wanted you to try it too." Chu Yanyan said, taking a bite of the unfinished burger.
Shen Qihe glanced at the sugary milk tea and said indifferently: "Drinking too much of this kind of drink will make you urinate urgently and will also make you gain weight."
When Chu Yanyan heard this, he immediately felt something was wrong. The milk tea in his mouth suddenly became dull. He didn't want to be as fat as the fat boy in his class, so he asked with a bitter face: "But I have already drunk it, what should I do?" It turned out that Xu Jingjing had no good intentions in taking him to drink milk tea. He would definitely not believe Xu Jingjing's words next time.
