Chapter 30: If you are sick, go get treatment. Don’t be so fussy!
Ye Ying took a look and found that there were only some utensils, no seasonings for cooking, and even no rice.
She said with a smile: "Brother, how can I cook the two pounds of meat you asked me to buy without seasoning? What can I eat without rice?"
"I didn't know you were going to cook today." Ji Lianqi frowned.
Ye Ying thought about it carefully and realized that she did not seem to have said that she would start cooking today. She just asked him to bring back the pots and pans.
So there's nothing much to say about this. It's her fault for not telling you in advance.
"Oh, I'm afraid the meat will be wasted! It's hot and there's no refrigerator, so it will go bad in just one afternoon."
After a moment of silence, Ji Lianqi suddenly stood up and said, "Wait a moment."
Then he went out.
Half an hour later, he brought back some commonly used seasonings and a few kilograms of rice.
When Ye Ying saw these things, her mood improved. At least the meat was not bought in vain.
"Where did you get yourself in such a short time?"
Ji Lianqi was still panting at the moment, and it seemed that he had run back home. "I rode my bike to the department store and bought it."
Awesome!
Ye Ying couldn't help but give Ji Lianqi a thumbs up. This man was quite self-aware, and she liked him.
With these seasonings, Ye Ying quickly went to the stove and prepared to start making lunch.
At that time, electric rice cookers were not yet popular, so she had to cook the rice in a wok before starting to cook.
In short, it is very troublesome and inconvenient, and it takes a lot of time to prepare a meal.
By the time we can have this meal, we will probably be starving.
Ye Ying thought about it and decided not to make the staple food for lunch. After the dishes were ready, she would go to the cafeteria to get some steamed buns or rice.
She acted without delay. In order to eat the braised pork she had not tasted for a long time, she quickly cut the meat and prepared to blanch it in water.
But when she put the pork into the pot with water, Ye Ying realized that she had to light the stove herself!
Being used to modern technology, I suddenly found it difficult to adapt to such a primitive method of cooking.
But this did not pose a problem for her. Everyone can make a fire. It just takes some effort.
After the fire is lit, the water in the pot will boil quickly. After skimming off the foam, add various seasonings and sugar and start stewing until the sauce is reduced.
Since we were in a hurry, we didn't prepare cooking wine, ginger, garlic, and star anise, so the taste would probably be greatly reduced.
But it's okay as long as it's edible.
After adding these seasonings, according to experience, it only needs to be cooked for another 20 to 30 minutes.
After putting the lid on, Ye Ying ignored it and sat aside in a daze.
Suddenly, the sound of children talking came from under the shade of a tree not far away.
Ye Ying looked around and found Liu Juan's child Xiaotian and a strange little girl playing under the shade of a tree.
Xiaotian proudly took out a few candies from his pocket and placed them in front of the little girl: "Look, these are the candies Aunt Ranran gave me as a reward!"
"Wow!" the little girl said with envy, "Why did Aunt Ran Ran give you so many candies? Why don't I have any?"
"Humph!" Xiaotian raised his chin proudly: "That's because I worked for Aunt Ranran, so she gave it to me!"
The little girl asked curiously: "Xiaotian, what did you do for Aunt Ranran?"
Speaking of this, Ye Ying couldn't help but prick up her ears.
This is also what she cares about. If it is really as she thinks... then Lin Ranran should just wait patiently!
Xiaotian said to the little girl mysteriously, "Do you want to know? I won't tell you! Hehehe!"
After saying that, he stuck out his tongue at the little girl and ran away.
This damn kid... failed at the critical moment, which made Ye Ying very angry.
Just when I was getting angry, a strange smell came over.
When I smelled it carefully again, it seemed to be coming from the pot!
Ye Ying smelled something wrong, so she ran over and lifted the lid of the pot. She was stunned.
She forgot that firewood cannot adjust the temperature like induction stoves or gas stoves.
At this time, the two pounds of meat in the pot was almost cooked into charcoal!
Oh my god! How could this happen?
How could she make her signature dish, braised pork, into such a mess? !
What a waste of food, so heartless.
If Ji Lianqi saw this, he would probably throw the spatula away overnight, right?
Seeing that the food in the pot was almost burnt out, Ye Ying scooped a large spoonful of water in a hurry and prepared to pour it into the stove to put out the fire.
Perhaps it was the smell of burning that attracted people. When Ye Ying was busy putting out the fire in the stove, a strange voice came from behind her.
"I was wondering who burned the food, it turns out it was you, you bitch."
Ye Ying's body stiffened and she turned around to look at the person who came.
Zhou Lingling glanced at the pot and said with disdain: "You lazy woman want to learn how to cook? Don't burn everything here!"
"Don't tell me, do you really believe that if you want to keep a man's heart, you must first keep his stomach?"
Ye Ying frowned unhappily. Before she could say a word, Zhou Lingling started talking a lot.
What's more, she had never thought of conquering Ji Lianqi with her cooking skills.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Zhou Lingling said again: "Ye Ying, I advise you to save your energy. This trick won't work on you! Captain Ji doesn't like you at all. He likes Ranran."
Ye Ying stiffened her neck: "Are you teaching me how to do things?"
She was almost laughing out of anger. Who the hell was Zhou Lingling? Why should she listen to her?
She was just making braised pork and accidentally burned it!
What a woman who doesn't care about anything. She comes here to make herself miserable and causes trouble every day.
To use today's words, this woman is a troublemaker.
Seeing Ye Ying's stubborn look, Zhou Lingling snorted.
"What are you cutting? If you are sick, go get treatment instead of worrying about your health all the time."
"Zhou Lingling, if you don't know how to get to the hospital, I'll kindly show you the way. Just get out of the door and take bus No. 28 to the last stop."
When Zhou Lingling heard this, her mouth twisted with anger.
Because the last stop of bus No. 28 is a mental hospital.
Zhou Lingling was about to retort when she saw Ji Lianqi walking towards them quickly out of the corner of her eye. She glared at Ye Ying fiercely and quickly turned away.
Ji Lianqi, who came rushing over after smelling the food, saw the charcoal-like meat in the pot, and his eyebrows were tightly knitted into the shape of a capital "川".
"Ye Ying, is this the specialty you mentioned?"
"It was an accident, definitely an accident." Ye Ying curled her lips in embarrassment, "The fire was too big, I didn't pay attention to the temperature for a moment, and then it burned."
After a moment of silence, Ji Lianqi said helplessly, "Are there any other dishes? I'll make them."
"There are still a few pounds of bamboo shoots in it." Ye Ying pointed to a snakeskin bag on the ground.
Ji Lianqi opened the snakeskin bag and nodded: "I understand, you go back and wait."
"No, I'll stay and help you. I'm very fast at peeling bamboo shoots."
