Thinking about it, he couldn't sit still any longer, so he stood up and followed her out. When he got to the kitchen, he saw her busy figure and said, "Let me help you!"
She turned her head to look at him and quickly waved her hand, "No, no, I can do it myself. Go sit down!"
"How embarrassing to let a guest like you do this!"
"It's too polite of you to say that. There's no need to be polite to me!" As he spoke, he didn't stop his hands and reached out to take the vegetables and started washing them.
However, when she was washing, she found that the water in the basin was actually cold. She frowned and couldn't help but say, "You actually use cold water to wash vegetables in such cold weather?"
"Don't you know this is bad for your health? You're so careless!"
Facing his stern face as he lectured her, Lin Qiaoxin was stunned. "This, this is nothing, I don't think it's that cold!"
She really didn't feel very cold because there was a thick curtain on the kitchen door, and the kitchen was very small, and there was a fire burning in the pot, so she didn't feel too cold.
Even if you use cold water to wash vegetables, it doesn’t feel very cold.
But as soon as she finished speaking, she saw Zhou Chaofa looking at her with an even more disapproving expression.
"There are two pots here, one for cooking and the other for boiling water. Isn't that great?" After saying that, he hurried to the stove, lit the fire and boiled water.
After watching the fire at the bottom of the pot burn vigorously, he stood up and clapped his hands, "Okay, I'll wash the vegetables first. If you want to wash them, wait until the water boils."
After he finished speaking, he glanced at her with a worried look on his face and warned her, "Remember, don't use cold water to wash vegetables in the future. Boil water and fill it in a kettle for later use. It will be more convenient this way."
I was a little surprised that he was so angry and worried.
My heart warmed up and a faint smile appeared on the corner of my mouth.
"Okay, I get it, but it's really okay. Look how warm this room is with the fire! And isn't that how it used to be in our homes?"
As for her body, she really hadn't paid much attention to it. She had never been accurate in that aspect and she had gotten used to it.
Besides, every family is like this. No one would be willing to go through the trouble of boiling water to wash vegetables every time.
Seeing that she agreed verbally but still looked a little nonchalant, he couldn't help but feel angry, "I said no, then it's not allowed. You're not nice to girls anyway, and you still do that!"
"Besides, your aunt doesn't care about you at all!"
Although he doesn't know much about girls.
But his grandmother would nag him every time she worked. She had developed many illnesses when she was young because she didn't take good care of herself.
So of course I have to tell her to take good care of herself.
But unexpectedly, Lin Qiaoxin burst out laughing.
"Oh, okay, okay, I get it. My mom didn't go through this when she was young. It's just washing vegetables with cold water. It's not that serious!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Chaofa couldn't help but retort.
"That won't do either. Look at my grandma. She said it's because she didn't pay attention when she was young that she has so many health problems now. I'm really worried about her."
Lin Qiaoxin smiled helplessly, but nodded in agreement. She didn't expect that he would have such a nagging side, which she found quite interesting.
"Okay, okay, I get it, is that still not enough? I didn't expect a grown man like you to be so nagging!"
"Are you like this to all your friends? Do they find you annoying?"
Feeling a little embarrassed by what she said, he lowered his head and coughed lightly, "They are all rough and tumble people, with thick skin and flesh, nothing like you, so why don't they ask you to be more careful?"
Lin Qiaoxin nodded amusedly, "Yes, thank you very much."
After washing the vegetables, she didn't see her cooking, and she suddenly felt a little puzzled, "Why don't you cook?"
Lin Qiaoxin couldn't help but reveal a mysterious smile on her face, "Hehe, you don't know this, right? The feature of this dish is that it doesn't require cooking. You'll know when the time comes!"
But the next sentence Zhou Chao sent made the smug smile on her face disappear instantly.
"You're not talking about the southern snack hot pot, are you?"
She immediately turned around and looked at him in surprise, "You, how do you know about hot pot?"
This time it was Zhou Chaofa who was proud. A smile flashed in his eyes and he spoke slowly.
"What's the big deal? I heard from others that hot pot is delicious and it's eaten by people in the south. We don't have it in the north."
"Although I haven't eaten it, I've heard from others that there are many delicious snacks in the south. This hot pot is one of them. It tastes very good."
"It seems that I am in for a treat today, but how did you know?"
He lowered his head and coughed twice as he explained.
"What I make isn't authentic either. You have to go to the south to eat it. The taste is truly unique. Just smelling it makes you drool."
When she thought of the taste of the hot pot she had eaten in her previous life, she couldn't help but drool. It was so delicious. Now she really missed it, but it was hard to eat it.
Because if you want to eat authentic hot pot now, you can only go to big cities. Don’t even think about it in this small town.
But it’s okay, now I have the conditions at home and can cook for myself.
Even if the taste is not so authentic, it can still satisfy your craving.
Zhou Chaofa smiled, with an expectant look on his face.
