Because they were leaving Shanghai tomorrow, An An and Xu Cheng Cheng became the idlest people in the house. Aunt Li had been getting along well with An An and the others for a while, and was reluctant to let the two girls go. She almost treated them as her own children. She had placed two old-fashioned reclining chairs in the yard early in the morning. The reclining chairs were made of bamboo strips, and people were very comfortable when they lay down.
In the middle of the two reclining chairs, there was a plate of grapes chilled from well water. These grapes were grown in Aunt Li's own home. Although the grapes looked a little ugly and small, and did not look good, they were very sweet. One bite
, it was icy and sweet, and it was so comfortable.
The summer sun shines through the leaves and hits her body obliquely. A breeze blows past her cheeks, and An An feels a little drowsy. She lies flat on the recliner, eyes half-closed, one hand reaches out subconsciously, touches the ice grapes in the plate, feeds them into her mouth, and talks to Xu Chengcheng and the other person in a casual manner.
The taste is so wonderful.
An An dares to say that she hasn't been so leisurely for a long time! The person who loves her is cooking in the kitchen, that's right! Lu Yan also helped in the kitchen, and went to the market to buy some dishes that An An liked. It was a little hot in the summer, and An An was a little bitter. She couldn't eat fishy food, so Lu Yan bought two green cucumbers and a few bright red tomatoes. They were not expensive, but in this hot weather, An An liked them.
He put the tomatoes and cucumbers in a basket and put them in the well in the yard next door. After about an hour, he picked them up. At this time, the cucumbers and tomatoes were covered with a layer of white mist, and they were cold when he picked them up.
Smash two cloves of garlic, take two red peppers from the window, smash the green peppercorns you got earlier, add vinegar and sesame oil and mix them slightly. It tastes crispy and cool. It is so comfortable to eat a bite of hot and sour cucumber in this summer weather.
As for tomatoes, it is even simpler. Cut the tomatoes into small pieces, put them in a soup bowl, sprinkle with sugar, and leave it like that for about ten minutes. The sugar will completely penetrate into the tomatoes and melt into the tomato juice. It is bright red because the tomatoes have been chilled in well water in advance. Add sugar and mix lightly. It tastes icy, cool, sour and sweet. It feels like all the pores in your body are opened after taking a bite. It is so comfortable.
After Lu Yan finished cooking these two dishes, he came out of the kitchen directly. As soon as he walked to the door, he saw An An sitting in the courtyard to enjoy the cool air. The slender girl was lying flat on the recliner with a graceful figure.
Because she wore thin clothes in summer, she was wearing a thin white Dacron long skirt. Maybe she was more relaxed when lying down, so she didn't care so much. The skirt, which originally reached her calves, was blown up by the wind, revealing her white and slender thighs!
Looking up, there was a slightly raised little bun, rising and falling. The sunlight shone through the leaves on An An's small cheeks. Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her pink lips pouted slightly. The whole person revealed an indescribable temptation.
Lu Yan was about to walk over, but when he saw this, he suddenly stopped, leaned against the door, leaned sideways, and stared at An An on the recliner without blinking. It wasn't
until several sounds came from inside the house, "dinner is ready!"
Lu Yan suddenly came back to his senses, strode to An An's lounge chair, squatted down, picked up a leaf, gently twisted it with his thumb and index finger, and touched the tip of the leaf to An An's nose. He lowered his head, with a pair of deep eyes shining with light. , whispered, "An An!"
Lu Yan didn't know how gentle his eyes were when he looked down at An An. The voice seemed to reach his ears from the distant sky, and it was tingling, making An An's heart tremble. She frowned, slowly opened her eyelids, and suddenly fell into those gentle eyes.
An An didn't know how to describe this pair of eyes. She felt that no matter which girl fell into this pair of gentle and doting eyes, she would never be able to extricate herself, and she was no exception.
An An bit her lip, a little embarrassed, she blushed and whispered, "Brother Yan! Don't get so close to me." Lu
Yan raised his eyebrows, and a trace of danger flashed in his eyes, "Don't you like me getting closer to you?"
An An raised her head suddenly, and their eyes met. She was flustered, "Ah! Like... don't like." Perhaps Lu Yan at this time brought too much pressure to An An, her tongue also swirled and stammered.
Lu Yan wanted to say something else.
Xu Chengcheng rubbed her eyes and was stunned. "Is it time to eat?" As soon as she finished speaking, Li Jingyue stood at the door and called out, "If you don't come, the food will get cold."
Xu Chengcheng jumped up, and An An followed, but her steps were a little unstable, and she felt like she was running away.
Lu Yan saw An An's flustered figure and laughed, "Little girl."
The dishes on the table were rich. Li Jingyue put a lot of effort into the food on this table, and there were many big dishes! It's rare these days.
An An ignored the big dishes and set her sights on the cold cucumber and tomato. As soon as she entered the room, she could smell the fragrance of the cucumber.
The sweat from the heat outside instantly dissipated a lot when she saw the cold salad. She didn't hesitate to pick up a piece of cucumber with chopsticks after everyone was seated. It was crisp and cool. After taking a bite, An An felt the coolness rushing to her head. It was just like eating a ginseng fruit, and her whole body felt comfortable. An An praised
, "This cold salad cucumber is really delicious."
Seeing that An An liked it, Lu Yan's brows also showed a little more joy.
Li Jingyue smiled bitterly, "Lu Yan, you still understand An An!" He was very proud when he was cooking in the kitchen before! Today, the ingredients he brought back are all delicious dishes! I guarantee that Cheng Cheng and An An will like them.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yan quietly took out the icy cucumber and tomato from the basket, saying that An An would definitely like these two vegetarian dishes.
At that time, Li Jingyue didn't believe it. Nowadays, every household has a lot of meat and fish to eat. Today's dishes include braised fish, stewed chicken with potatoes, and a piece of basil ribs. Any of these dishes would be a top-notch delicacy, which might not be available at home every day.
But after everyone started eating, the first thing An An picked up with chopsticks was the cold-mixed cucumber, and the second was the sugar-mixed tomato. When it came to the third, fourth, and fifth chopsticks, An An still didn't pick up the delicacy that Li Jingyue was talking about.
Instead, Xu Chengcheng gave Li Jingyue some comfort.
Fortunately, her niece was quite considerate and started eating meat and vegetables with big mouthfuls, which made Li Jingyue regain some self-confidence. It turned out that pickled vegetables were still popular.
An An looked at Lu Yan and Li Jingyue in confusion, puffing up their cheeks and biting cucumbers like hamsters, thinking to herself, the way these two people laughed with their heads down is so scary!
