Xie Yan patted Gu Bin on the shoulder with a smile, "As long as my logic is consistent, you can't manipulate me. Someone as lazy as him can't do any work, and he avoids socializing as much as possible."
Being introverted isn't a big problem; there's no need to try to change it.
For someone as slow to warm up as Xie Yan, it's really difficult to start negotiating with others right away! Of course, he also admires those social butterflies; how do they have so many topics to talk about with others!
He really felt there was nothing to talk about with people he wasn't familiar with!
Moreover, Xie Yan is very satisfied with her current life and doesn't need to force herself to do things she's not good at.
Yu Yue glared at Gu Bin and said to Xie Yan, "Don't listen to him. Do what you like, and don't do what you don't like! Your own happiness is the most important thing."
Gu Bin: "..."
Seeing Xie Yan's worthless smile makes my chest ache with anger!
In the end, he's the only bad guy!
Seeing that Yu Yue had returned to the kitchen, he lowered his voice and said to Xie Yan, "When did she come over? Why didn't you tell me?"
Xie Yan: "!"
To be honest, he didn't see it either!
He quickly changed the subject, saying, "You're lucky today to have the chance to try my new and delicious food. It's definitely the best food you've ever eaten!"
Xie Yan was overjoyed at the thought of making a simplified version of fried tofu later!
She picked a bunch of fresh cilantro from the yard, washed it, and brought it into the kitchen. Seeing Gu Bin still standing there dumbfounded, she directed, "What are you standing there for? Go peel garlic, peel a whole head of garlic and bring it in."
Xie Yan picked up a kitchen knife, ready to show off his skills, and replied to Yue, "Wife, just wait and eat! The tofu I made today is absolutely delicious. I guarantee you'll want to eat it again and again!"
Yu Yuehui asked somewhat uneasily, "Are you sure you don't need my help?"
Xie Yan shook his head firmly, "This is simple, you don't need to help. Just wait to eat. Of course, you still need to make the sauce."
Let's not even talk about the quality of Xie Yan's cooking; it was just cooked and edible, but it was anything but delicious.
Seeing that Xie Yan's tofu-cutting posture was quite professional, Yu Yue ignored him and said, "Then you two can make the fried sausages. I'll go and call Mao Dan over."
How could we forget about balut when there's something delicious to eat?
Xie Yan waved his hand, "Go on, come back soon. Frying things is quick, and they taste best when they're hot!"
Yu Yue nodded and went out.
Actually, they did send some starch sausages over there, but Qian Hong would never be willing to fry them, and she couldn't know that they were frying them.
Otherwise, they would definitely be dragged over for ideological education.
Xie Yan chopped the tofu, minced garlic, chili peppers, and cilantro, then waved his hand and said to Gu Bin, "You can start cooking now!"
The prepared chili sauce is laid out on a plate. After the pan is heated, oil is poured in. Once the oil is hot, the starch sausages that were prepared beforehand are added in. With a sizzling sound, the aroma is released.
Xie Yan and Gu Bin both swallowed hard.
Xie Yan looked at Gu Bin triumphantly, "How about it? I wasn't lying to you! You can tell how delicious it is just by smelling it!"
Gu Bin stared intently at the pot, nodding perfunctorily. The aroma was already emanating from it; how could he not know?
Xie Yan took out the longest chopsticks in the house, which she usually only used when frying pancakes during the Chinese New Year, and flipped the bouncy sausages in the pan to make sure both sides were crispy.
Once they're fried until crispy, take them out and roll them in a dish to make sure every corner is coated with chili sauce.
The next batch was added and fried. Xie Yan couldn't wait to pick one up. Not afraid of getting burned, he blew on it slightly and started eating. He took a bite and the crispy outer skin broke with a crack.
Good heavens!
This is the taste!
Xie Yan was so moved she almost cried!
It's so delicious!
He hadn't had this for so many years, he really missed it.
Gu Bin was stunned. Was it really that delicious?
It was so delicious it made them cry!
This was the first time he had ever seen Xie Yan so excited!
After taking a bite, Xie Yan didn't even care that it was hot. He exhaled the hot air and took another bite. It was so delicious! Not only was the starch sausage delicious, but the dipping sauce was also incredibly delicious. It was spicy and numbing. Xie Yan thought it was dozens of times better than the ones he had eaten at the school gate before.
Of course, it could also be psychological.
Seeing Xie Yan like this, Gu Bin couldn't resist either. He had originally planned to wait until it cooled down a bit before eating.
I found a pair of chopsticks, picked up a piece, and started eating.
Believe it or not, Gu Bin was won over with just one bite!
It was so delicious that even someone who can't handle spicy food couldn't stop eating it, slurping and munching all the while.
He even took the time to give Xie Yan a thumbs-up, expressing his approval.
Wiping the sweat from his forehead caused by the spiciness, he ate with gusto!
Xie Yan raised his eyebrows arrogantly. He knew that no one could resist the temptation of starch sausage, let alone this starch sausage Plus version.
After trying it for the first time, the two started frying starch sausages diligently again, but this time Gu Bin's state of mind was completely different.
He could resist the aroma before, but now he couldn't at all. He kept swallowing and looking outside, hoping that Yu Yue would come back soon.
Yu Yue arrived with Xiao Maodan while Xie Yan was frying tofu.
As soon as he entered the house, Mao Dan smelled the strong aroma and followed the scent, running in quickly.
Seeing that it was Xie Yan who was cooking, he fawned over him, saying, "Wow! Uncle, you're amazing! You can even cook. You're the most amazing uncle ever!"
Xie Yan remained silent, simply enjoying his praise.
Little Maodan looked at the dishes on the cutting board again, swallowed hard, and said, "Did you make all of this? You're amazing! Even better than my dad!"
Seeing that the little guy hadn't noticed him, Gu Bin decided to tease him and coughed lightly, saying, "Mao Dan, I also contributed to this, why are you only praising your uncle?"
Mao Dan scratched his head, feeling quite embarrassed. He really hadn't noticed Gu Bin sitting next to him.
On a sudden inspiration, he ran over and stood by the stove to take a look. He then turned to Gu Bin and said, "Uncle, you're really good too. Look how well you've lit the fire. Not a single sausage inside is burnt!"
Xie Yan: That was all because I turned it over so often, what does it have to do with fire?
But he didn't expose him, watching Gu Bin shamelessly accept the credit that didn't belong to him.
He took out a bamboo stick he had previously sharpened, inserted a sausage into it, and handed it to Yu Yuehui, saying, "Wife, quickly try it and see how it tastes."
He handed another one to Mao Dan, saying, "Little Grey, come on, try the sausage your uncle made, is it delicious!"
Mao Dan was holding the sausage, about to eat it, when he heard "Little Grey" and looked up uncertainly, asking, "Uncle, is Little Grey me?"
Xie Yan nodded, "Didn't you ask your uncle to call you Yu Hui? Your uncle thought about it and realized that calling you that isn't very affectionate. Calling you Little Grey is much better! It sounds nice and is more affectionate!"
