Chapter 16 The most delicious dishes for the sixteen little ones.
"Doudou and Xiaoxun are back together."
Xu Can greeted the two cubs with a big loudspeaker and a big smile on his face. When he saw Meiqiu Doudou, he couldn't help laughing out loud.
Doudou happily and proudly responded in a baby voice: "Fatty is here!"
The moment he saw Shen Qingyue, the expression on the cub's face changed from happy to excited. He shouted, "Xiao Susu!" and rushed forward with his head lowered.
Shen Qingyue had already stood up, but when he saw Dou Dou's action, he sat down again, bent his eyes and opened his arms to welcome the cub.
Sure enough, Dou Dou Zai rushed into his uncle's arms like a little cannonball, raised his face, opened his little mouth, and fell on the sofa with Shen Qingyue, grinning happily.
"Brother, you've become darker." Nuonuo looked at the little black ball curiously and gave a kind reminder.
Mai Mai also passed a tissue over from the side and whispered, "Dou Dou, wipe it."
Doudou then remembered that his face and hands were all black. He blinked his eyes, stretched out his little black hand to take the tissue, said, "Thank you, Sister Mai Mai," and began to wipe his hands.
The cub wiped it very seriously, wiping off some of the pot soot on his black hands, and then used the tissue to wipe his face.
Originally, there was some fair, tender and clean skin on my face, but now it has become evenly tanned.
By this time, the program crew had already cleaned up and washed all the pots, bowls, and utensils brought back by the kids, and placed them on the table in the living room.
Xu Can held a loud speaker and announced: "Today's first place is Miki. He completed the task in 20 minutes and returned to the villa. Let's applaud him together!"
Miki looked very happy and looked at her father subconsciously. Ishimori lowered his head and touched his head.
"The other kids were great too, especially Doudou, who successfully found the most important pot of the day and managed to bring it back, which is also worthy of encouragement."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Xiaoxun, who had been sitting quietly next to Gu Xunzhi, started clapping. Seeing this, the other children also started clapping.
Doudou was held in Shen Qingyue's arms, with his back pressed tightly against him. His little face was warm, but others could not tell from the outside that the cub's face was actually red.
He held Shen Qingyue's hand and smiled shyly with his lips pursed.
"Then the kids can have a good rest in the living room, and the parents can start working."
Xu Can commanded passionately: "Use your smart brains to make a delicious dinner for the kids!"
"Friendly reminder, the most delicious dish selected in the final review will be rewarded by the program team!"
Shen Qingyue raised his hand: "Director, I would like to ask you to take Doudou to wash his face first."
“No problem!” Xu Can couldn’t help laughing, and bent down to tease the cub: “Dou Dou, go wash your face quickly, and then go downstairs to play with the other kids!”
"Okay!" Doudou agreed obediently, and followed his uncle upstairs with small steps.
The director team listened to the advice and in the afternoon, when the bullet screen said that the indoors of the kids could not be seen, they installed the camera in their room in the evening.
They also thoughtfully posted a note on the door to remind parents that the live broadcast in the house is also open 24 hours a day.
The live broadcast rooms are the five rooms they just divided, but if you want to see the bedroom, you need to recharge the gold membership VIP.
[Jinjin TV is so dark! Darker than Doudouzai's face!!]
[Before watching the show: Who would buy a membership just for a variety show? After watching: Isn’t it just a membership? I’ll buy one!]
[Wow wow wow, I am a leek spirit, but I really can’t help but want to see the cub]
[I have recharged my VIP account, but where can I get a bag? 】
Shen Qingyue brought the cub into the house. When he was standing in front of the sink running water, Doudou quietly tugged at his hand.
"What's the matter?" Shen Qingyue turned his head to look at the little guy.
Doudou narrowed his eyes and waved mysteriously at Shen Qingyue, motioning him to squat down.
He squatted down as Doudou instructed, and the cub leaned close to his uncle's ear, stretched out his little hand to cover his mouth, and whispered softly: "Xiao Susu, I miss you~"
Shen Qingyue was originally wondering what secret Doudou wanted to tell her, but when she heard this out of the blue, her heart almost melted.
A smile appeared in his eyes, and his already gentle expression was tinged with tenderness.
He touched the cub's head, and imitated what he had just done, leaning close to Doudou's little ear, covering his mouth and whispering, "Uncle wants Doudou, too."
The movements of both people looked mysterious in the camera, but the recording equipment on their bodies had already picked up what they said.
[Where did this little angel cub come from?]
[Baby, be close to me!!! I miss you too! I want to be close to Doudou! 】
[You all stick with Dou Dou, so I'll stick with Xiao Shen's wife! Hehehe~]
【Stick together, kiss together, kiss together! 】
After whispering to Xiao Susu, the cub seemed to be in a very good mood.
Shen Qingyue stood up, first used some water to rub Doudou's dark little hands clean, and then washed his face with a facial cleanser specially for young children.
After rubbing it left and right, the snow-white facial cleanser turned into the color of sesame milk.
After wiping off the water droplets on its face, the cub with fair and beautiful skin is back.
"Our Doudou is really pretty."
Shen Qingyue scratched Doudou's messy hair with his hand, looked at the little boy's delicate face, and nodded with satisfaction.
Doudou also leaned on the sink to look in the mirror, turned around and raised his little face to look at his uncle, and said enthusiastically: "Little Susu is also brewing."
Shen Qingyue smiled and leaned over to touch a drop of water on the tip of the kid's nose: "Really, little sweetie."
When I went downstairs with Doudou, the other parents were already in the kitchen preparing to cook, but Ishimori was the only one still sitting on the sofa.
Seeing Shen Qingyue and Doudou coming down, Shi Sen stood up and smiled at them: "You finally came down. I'll go get the fruits prepared for the children so they can fill their stomachs first."
"Okay, thank you for your help." Shen Qingyue nodded, took the cub to sit on the sofa, and went to the kitchen.
The program team has prepared very well, and several other parents have already started working.
After all the ingredients were picked out, there were still a lot left. Nuonuo’s mother cooked the most, including scrambled eggs with tomatoes, sweet and sour pork tenderloin, and a plate of lettuce with oyster sauce.
Sister Mai Mai cooked shrimps and steamed a sea bass. They were light and tasty.
Gu Xunzhi doesn't seem to be very good at anything in the kitchen. At this moment, he is carefully learning how to make shredded spinach and chicken with coriander, a cold dish, from the tutorial in the small color book on his mobile phone.
[Can you please stop the close-up? I can’t eat until late at night! /Angry]
[The pigeons responded with: Takeaway software, start! ]
[Each of these dishes is made exactly like the food I like, and they look so delicious!!]
[There are still quite a lot of things left. What is Xiao Shen's wife going to do? ]
[I don’t know, but the food made by the beauty must be delicious!! (Serious) (Serious) (Sincere)]
There are stir-fried dishes, cold dishes, soups, and rice.
Shen Qingyue pondered the remaining ingredients on the chopping board for a while and decided to make a delicacy that could use up all of them!
He blanched the remaining pork and chicken in water, then diced the potatoes, eggplants and tomatoes, and cut the beans into small, even pieces.
After preparing all this, light the firewood, heat the pot, use scallions and ginger to stir-fry until fragrant, then put the meat in and stir-fry with the potatoes.
Because the kids also wanted to eat it, he used very little oil and seasoning, and only used half a spoonful of soybean paste.
Wait until the surface of the meat in the pot is slightly browned, then put the eggplant and beans in, pour hot water to the same level as the vegetables, cover the pot and start stewing over high heat.
The food was stewed in the big pot that Doudou brought back. With this kind of pot and the stove for burning fire, the stewed dishes and rice tasted more fragrant.
After finally adjusting the heat, Shen Qingyue took a deep breath, found a small stool, sat down in front of the stove to rest, and controlled the stewing time.
After a while, the aroma of the hot soup in the pot bubbled out with the heat.
The aroma of meat can be smelled not only in the kitchen but also in the living room, which makes the kids' greedy worms come out.
Mai Mai sniffed hard following the scent and said, "I'm so hungry."
"I'm hungry too." Doudou looked at his sister, then lowered his head and touched his belly.
Nuonuo was drinking milk with a chuckle, and Xiaoxun was a little worried about the fruit in her arms.
He was hungry, but didn't want to eat.
Each cub held a small plate of fruit in its arms. There were many kinds of fruit. Basically, all the fruit prepared by the program team was cut into small pieces by Ishimori, evenly divided and carefully placed on the plate.
But the fruit had been left for over an hour, which was a bit too long. It didn't taste fresh at all, and it was also refrigerated, so it felt icy when I bit into it.
It was not just Xiaoxun. Doudou also puffed up his little mouth and chewed two pieces of pear to give face to his uncle, but his mouth and stomach felt cold, so he stopped eating.
The other kids were similar to him, except Miki, who was very supportive and ate up all the fruits cut by his father.
The cartoon on the cartoon channel on TV has come to an end and commercials are now playing.
Mother Nuonuo leaned half of her body out of the kitchen and shouted with a smile: "The food is ready, children, go wash your hands and eat!"
"Yeah, time to eat!"
Before she had even wiped the milk stains off her lips, she stretched out her hand, cheered joyfully, and jumped off the sofa first.
The kids, who were already a little drowsy, became excited and jumped down one after another to wash their hands at the sink next to the kitchen.
Dou Dou happily ran forward following the older brothers and sisters in front of him, and obediently stood in line at the back to wash his hands.
The parents continued to bring their homemade dishes to the living room and place them on the large dining table in the middle.
The fragrant food looks even more tempting under the warm yellow light above.
"Wow, this is stewed in an iron pot!" Seeing that Shen Qingyue hadn't served the dish yet, Nuonuo's mother went over to take a look, and then exclaimed: "This looks like a real chef, Xiao Shen, you are really a hidden talent."
"No, no, that's an exaggeration." Shen Qingyue felt a little embarrassed by the compliments and waved his hands.
Several other parents were also watching.
The pot was big, and the amount of food it cooked was quite enough. There was also half a pot of soup, and it would have been too troublesome to serve it out on a plate, and there was no other tableware in the cupboard.
Shen Qingyue is worried here.
"Why not just bring the pot to the table?" Gu Xizhi seemed to see his distress and offered a suggestion.
Shen Qingyue hesitated for a moment. He felt that the bottom of the pot was covered with burnt ash, which would be everywhere when he turned around.
Gu Xizhi seemed to see his hesitation: "I just saw a disposable tablecloth in the living room."
"Okay then." Shen Qingyue smiled at him.
Gu Yuzhi rolled up his sleeves, revealing his muscular arms, and reached out to help carry the pot.
The rice was also served, sprinkled with sesame seeds and seaweed, and the cubs' had a little walnut oil added.
Doudou held his small soft spoon in his hand, his eyes never leaving the rice and dishes in front of him.
Gu Yuzhi carried the large pot, which was quite filling, and gently placed it on the table covered with a disposable tablecloth.
The cubs had never seen such a big pot of rice before, and their eyes widened. Even Gu Xiaoxun couldn't help but stare at it.
"Xiao Susu, what's in the pot?" Doudou pulled Shen Qingyue's clothes and asked curiously.
Shen Qingyue said, "This is the big stew that my uncle made for everyone."
Doudou's eyes were filled with admiration, and he repeated, "Big commotion!"
"Brother Xiaoxun!" Doudou couldn't wait to share. He patted Xiaoxun's arm, and Gu Xiaoxun turned his head to look at him: "What are you doing?"
"This is a big commotion!" Doudou said the word he had just learned very proudly, then puffed out his chest with an even more proud expression: "What a great little bastard!"
Shen Qingyue was putting a piece of soft stewed chicken into his bowl and just smiled when he heard this.
Gu Xiaoxun also looked surprised. He looked at Shen Qingyue and whispered, "Uncle is so great."
"Thank you, Xiaoxun. Your uncle is also a great cook." Shen Qingyue complimented sincerely.
Gu Xianzhi, who had just lowered his head to eat a bite of spinach, said: "..."
For a moment I couldn't tell whether this was really praising myself.
【Qingqing = a tool for boasting without emotion. 】
[I also want to eat the big mess made by Xiaosusu~~]
[…The one in front, straighten your tongue and speak.]
Since some cubs still need to be fed by their parents, the meal time is extended a lot.
It was almost nine o'clock when the meal was over. The cubs' little tummies were full, and their parents put them back in the living room to play together.
"Today's tasks have all been completed!" Xu Can picked up the loud speaker with full energy: "Now, please ask our children to choose the most delicious dish of today! The program team can fulfill one wish of the cook!"
The parents sat side by side as the director requested, and let the children choose to stand behind their favorite person.
Two minutes later, the cubs finished standing still.
Xu Can smiled slyly and teasingly: "Okay, now please reveal the answer yourself——"
The parents turned around and responded.
Nuonuo stood behind her mother, smiling sweetly, while Mai Mai and Miki stood behind their sister and father respectively.
Gu Yanzhi turned around and found no one behind him.
