Chapter 025: Zizi goes to buy vegetables

The program crew saw Yanyan and Xie Luoshu were paralyzed and had nothing to do, and thought there was nothing interesting, so they decided to assign them a task. It was just simple shopping and cooking, but the budget was only 100 yuan.

Xie Luoshu shook the red bill and said, "One hundred yuan? We don't need to buy seasonings or anything like that."

"Just use the ones at home." The assistant director said whatever Director Zhu said.

Director Zhu beat his chest and stamped his feet: Damn it, I knew it was a bad idea just by looking at the expressionless face of Xie Luoshu.

"Change it and let the children go shopping. Parents can accompany them but they are not allowed to talk."

"Wait a minute! Mr. Xie." Seeing Xie Luoshu about to leave, the assistant director rushed out, "It's like this..."

[Hiss, let the kids go buy groceries?]

[This is the normal routine.]

[Poor baby Yanyan is only three years old. What can he do? Laughing and crying.jpg]

"Okay." Xie Luoshu didn't say anything. He just took out a small panda bag, put the hundred yuan in Yanyan's bag, and hung it on Yanyan. "Baby, I'm counting on you for lunch. Buy some..."

"Thank you, Mr. Xie!" the director's assistant hurriedly stopped him.

OK, fine. Xie Luoshu closed his mouth and made an "OK" gesture.

Yanyan pointed to her little head and said, "Cat."

[? Cat? Where are the cats?]

[Based on experience, cat = Mao Mao = hat!]

[The cow is still the cow...]

Xie Luoshu didn't expect Yanyan to be so obsessed with the hat: "Does Zizi really want to wear that hat?"

"Yeah." Yanyan nodded.

"Okay." Xie Luoshu took out a dark green hat, which was very similar in color to Yanyan's clothes and had a big panda head painted on it.

[…Ah…]

[Hahahaha, hahaha! The kid is cuckolded at such a young age.]

[No wonder Xie Luoshu kept confirming it, hahaha!]

[Baby…I’m sorry, hahaha auntie can’t help it hahaha! ]

[Got it! Zizi likes green! (Drags a pile of green sacks) I have a lot (Picks and chooses) Zizi, do you like this light green one or this dark green one?]

[So far, the baby likes dark green. Serious face.jpg]

[Nonsense! I like the light green one, give me the dark green one!]

Ahem, although it is a green hat, it suits the cub very well, with a round head and a cute panda look.

There aren't many people in the supermarket at this time.

Yanyan pushed a dopamine-colored stroller designed for children. But Yanyan was too short, and the things in the fruit and vegetable section were all placed on the table, so Yanyan couldn't see anything.

Yanyan grabbed the handrail and turned to look at Xie Luoshu. For some reason, Xie Luoshu saw a pitiful feeling in her.

[Ahhh! Baby! Cute baby!]

[What’s wrong with the program crew? Can’t you see that our kids can’t see anything?!]

[That’s right, I feel wronged, don’t cry.]

Whenever they go out, they are followed by photographers and assistant directors.

Xie Luoshu asked: "Yan Yan can't see, can I hold him?"

The director's assistant confirmed and pushed the cart away: "You can let Yanyan sit here."

"That's fine." Xie Luoshu picked up Yan Yan, and Yan Yan sat in the stroller. Because of being suspended in the air, her two little feet swayed restlessly, and her small shoes swayed with the swaying. "Where are you going, baby?"

Xie Luoshu has brought Yanyan to the supermarket several times in the past few days. Yanyan stared around with his big round eyes. Finally, he locked onto the target and pointed in a direction with his little hand firmly: "Tomato~"

Yanyan likes to eat tomatoes, whether eating them as fruits or using them in cooking. This is one of the few words Yanyan can say with standard accuracy.

Xie Luoshu was holding the bag on one side. Yanyan was in the perfect position, and she reached out and grabbed one. She put it in her other hand and passed it to Xie Luoshu, who then put it back in the bag. They worked well together, but...

[But, baby, are you planning to eat only tomatoes for lunch?]

[It’s so funny, why are you still taking them? Xie Luoshu has already changed to a second bag.]

[Help, it seems that my son really loves tomatoes!]

[Come to my house, baby! My greenhouse is full of tomatoes!]

[Zizi: Tomato~.jpg]

[Notice: The emoticon has been stolen, thank you.]

[＋1]

"Baby..." Seeing that the second bag was almost full, Xie Luoshu couldn't help but speak out.

The director's assistant warned: "Ahem."

Yanyan held the tomato in her little hands and looked back at Xie Luoshu.

[Don't pack it, baby. There are already two bags. Buy something else, or you will only have tomatoes for lunch. ]

Yanyan is an obedient child. He stuffed the last tomato in his hand to Xie Luoshu, and then sat down obediently. Xie Luoshu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Where are you going next, babe?" Xie Luoshu said after he mentioned the price.

Yanyan took about twenty of them, and Xie Luoshu put them all in a bag, which contained nearly fifty yuan. That's about two yuan a piece.

[Oh, so many tomatoes... tomatoes with sugar, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, beef brisket with tomatoes, fish fillet with tomatoes... Forget it, I don't know what to buy. I guess I can only eat cold tomatoes and tomatoes with sugar in the end. ]

Yanyan puffed up her cheeks: Zizi knows!

Yanyan patted Xie Luoshu's hand that was holding the handle of the cart: "Dandan."

"Okay. Let's go buy some eggs." Xie Luoshu's eyes lit up and he pushed the cart away for a distance.

[I can see...he is very anxious.]

[Of course not, otherwise I can only eat tomatoes for lunch.]

"Hey..." the director's assistant called them.

"What's wrong?" Xie Luoshu paused. "We didn't break the rules. It was Yanyan who asked for it. Besides, Yanyan is not familiar with the road. I'm just showing her the way."

"Okay." The director's assistant agreed reluctantly.

"Let's go. Buy eggs!"

Yanyan was very proud, pointing at a plate of eggs and waving her hand: "This one!"

"One board." Xie Luoshu laughed, "Okay, okay."

There are thirty of them on a plate, and they weighed about twenty-six yuan.

【Fifty plus twenty-six equals seventy-six dollars, leaving twenty-four dollars.】

Xie Luoshu did some calculations...well, there wasn't much money left.

Then Yanyan thought for a moment and said, "Fish!"

Xie Luoshu didn't even need to ask, Yanyan had already learned the process by herself.

Xie Luoshu said, "Baby, do you really want to eat fish?"

"Ahem!" the director's assistant reminded again.

"I'm not saying that." Xie Luoshu folded his arms, "What if it exceeds a hundred?"

The director's assistant said as a matter of course: "Just don't take anything over a hundred."

"Okay." Xie Luoshu pushed Yanyan to the aquatic area.

In the seafood section of the supermarket, huge glass tanks are neatly arranged, filled with clear water. Fish swim in the water. Crabs wave their powerful claws. Some of them crawl around restlessly, looking overbearing. Shrimp jump in the water, trying to escape. The air is filled with the faint scent of seawater.

Xie Luoshu sighed at the prices of these seafood products, and was determined not to be able to afford them. However, the price of shrimps was reduced today. Although they were a little smaller, they were still 18 yuan per pound.

【You can buy a pound of shrimp and some soft tofu. 】

Yanyan nodded and said: I understand, kid.

"Shrimp." Yanyan pointed at the shrimp accurately.

Xie Luoshu was stunned for a moment: "Baby wants to eat this?"

[The whole family was laughing so hard, Xie Luoshu's tone was full of excitement!]

[Of course not. After all, Yanyan baby is the man who bought a box of tomatoes and eggs for fifty yuan!]

[I thought I was going to have cold tomatoes, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, tomato and egg soup, and fried eggs for lunch today.]

[And custard.]

[This is so funny. Please leave some bamboo shoots for the panda.]

[It’s not that we don’t want to, it’s just that Yanyan’s panda ate all the bamboo shoots.]

[Hahahahahahaha! Mom asked me why I was mad!]

"Please weigh one kilogram for us." Xie Luoshu said to the supermarket staff.

Now there are six dollars left.

Xie Luoshu calculated that it was almost noon, so he took Yanyan for a walk.

[I was right to just look at it and not buy it.]

[Is there a possibility that they don’t want to buy it?]

[Is there a possibility that they just don’t have the money to buy it?]

Finally, Xie Luoshu took a box of soft tofu for two yuan.

"Wait!" The director's assistant looked sharp, "Put it down."

"It's not me, it's the kid who wants to eat!" Xie Luoshu looked at Yanyan, "right, kid?"

Yanyan nodded: "Yeah, cub!"

"Okay..." The director's assistant was helpless.

When he finally settled the bill, he still had four yuan left. Xie Luoshu bought a glass of lemonade at a Mixue store at the entrance of the supermarket and gave it to Yanyan to drink two sips.

I have to say, it's really delicious. I asked for 50% sugar, and the sweetness and sourness are just right. Yanyan also likes it.

[Huh? This store has opened here?! Isn’t this a wealthy area?]

[I am dying of laughter, Michelle, you have to take this incredible wealth. I have already thought about it for you: lemonade is something that even rich people love to drink.]

[I understand! I like this kind of sweet and sour taste!]

[Understood +1]

[…………]

[Understood +10086]

Xie Luoshu had already thought of lunch: scrambled eggs with tomatoes, egg custard, tomatoes with sugar, scrambled eggs with shrimp, and tomato, shrimp and tofu soup.

First, the egg custard. Take out a few eggs and stir them quickly. Then add an appropriate amount of water and stir again. In order to make the egg custard more delicate, filter the egg liquid with a filter. Then put it in plastic wrap and poke a few small holes to make the surface of the egg custard smooth. Finally, put it in the steamer and set an alarm. It will be almost done in seven or eight minutes.

Next is the tomato scrambled eggs. Cut the tomatoes into a cross and soak them in hot water for a while to easily peel them, then cut them into small pieces. Beat the eggs.

Light the fire, heat the pan, and pour in a proper amount of oil. When the oil starts to smoke, slowly pour the egg liquid into the pan. The egg liquid solidifies instantly, making a "sizzling" sound. Don't overcook it, gently turn it with a spatula, and when the egg liquid solidifies, serve it out for later use.

Heat the pan again, add a little oil, and add the chopped tomatoes. Stir-fry the tomatoes in the pan until they become soft and ooze red juice. Add appropriate amounts of salt and sugar. Next, pour the fried eggs into the pan and stir-fry evenly with the tomatoes. Finally, add some tomato sauce to enhance the flavor.

[Huh? What is this? Ketchup?!]

[Yeah, you make scrambled eggs with tomatoes without ketchup?]

[Who is so kind as to add ketchup to scrambled eggs?!]

[We don’t all add it in our family!]

[Tomato scrambled eggs with ketchup?! What's the point of tomatoes then!]

[But it tastes really good with ketchup.]

[Yeah, yeah!]
