Chapter 141: Being teased for no reason
The mountains and rivers are picturesque and lush, and being in it is like being in a natural painting. All worries disappear without a trace, the mind is completely relaxed and soothed, and you feel the inner peace and joy.
The two stayed in the secret base until nightfall.
"A Miao, I'm hungry!" Wen Shuzhou reached for his gold-rimmed glasses out of habit, but pushed nothing.
"Let's go down the mountain, Shuzhou. What do you want to eat for dinner?" Wen Miao pretended not to see it and changed the subject.
"Vegetable porridge and pancakes!" Wen Shuzhou said two things.
"OK."
...In the kitchen, Wen Miao was the cook and Wen Shuzhou followed behind to help. Actually, helping was just an excuse, he just wanted to hang out with the kids.
"Shuzhou, do you want ham or steak in the pancake?" Wen Miao opened the refrigerator door and turned around to ask Wen Shuzhou's opinion.
"Let's have steak." To be honest, Wen Shuzhou had never eaten steak wrapped in pancakes before. He wanted to give it a try. After all, with children around, he thought food would taste good no matter how it was combined.
"Okay." Wen Miao took four steaks and put them on a plate to thaw.
"Shuzhou, what flavor do you like for your steak? Is black pepper okay?"
"Okay." Wen Shuzhou nodded.
After the steak was thawed, Wen Miao used kitchen paper to wipe away the blood, sprinkled black pepper and rose salt evenly on both sides of the steak, then applied a layer of olive oil to lock in the juices, and marinated for a few minutes to allow it to absorb the flavor.
"Shuzhou, fry the steak until well-done!" Wen Miao suggested.
"Um."
After that, Wen Miao heated the pan until it was smoking, then added a little cooking oil, and waited until one side of the steak was frying red, and then turned it over and continued frying. At this time, Wen Miao added butter, and after it melted, he used a spoon to scoop the butter juice and pour it on the steak, so that the steak would be more fragrant and tender.
Wen Shuzhou, who was watching from the side, felt for the first time that frying steak was also a technical job. If he specified it, he couldn't do it!
"Okay, Shuzhou, clean up the dishes and let's eat." Wen Miao took out the fried steak and said to Wen Shuzhou.
"Here it comes." Wen Shuzhou is getting more and more proficient at doing these things now. Before the children can even start, the vegetable porridge has already been neatly put into the bowl.
By the time Wen Miao brought the pancakes and steak to the table, Wen Shuzhou's porridge, a plate of kimchi and a bottle of mushroom sauce were already on the table.
"Shuzhou, this is for you." Wen Miao handed the pancake wrapped in steak to Wen Shuzhou.
"A Miao, you eat, I'll roll it myself." The children always gave him their food first. It was true that Wen Shuzhou felt warm in his heart, but as a grown man, he felt embarrassed to always accept care from children.
"Take it. The vegetable rolls you make usually leak. Do you feel comfortable with your hands being sticky?" Wen Miao's words immediately put an end to Wen Shuzhou's idea of trying to make the pancake.
"Okay." Wen Shuzhou took a bite of the pancake and said softly.
"Ah Miao, what would I do without you by my side?"
"You are the eldest master, and you will be fine without me around." Wen Miao naturally knew what Wen Shuzhou meant, and said it casually on purpose to tease him.
"You little rascal..." Wen Shuzhou raised the corner of his lips, put down his chopsticks, and scratched the kid's nose with his index finger.
"Let's eat." Wen Miao was inexplicably aroused by Wen Shuzhou. When he lowered his head, his red ears betrayed his inner feelings at the moment - he was shy!
