Early morning on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.
The weather is still cold, below freezing.
The hustle and bustle of last night gradually dissipated as the night passed. For Jiang Ning, Tongtong and Chu Chu, it was just a small wave in life.
Xue Chuchu wears an apron around her waist and is busy in the kitchen. Today's breakfast is potato lump soup. First, she cuts the potatoes into strips and wraps them in eggs and flour. Then she fry the tomatoes in the pot, add water after frying the soup, and finally pour in
Potato stew.
If you have a bowl of piping hot potato dumpling soup in winter, it will definitely be sour, sweet and appetizing, and you will feel warm all over after eating it.
Jiang Ning sat in front of the stove, lighting a fire and roasting peanuts.
Yesterday, he accidentally remembered the potato lump soup that his mother made when he was a child. He hadn't eaten it in many years, so he casually mentioned that he got up early this morning and stepped into Chu Chu's house, and found that she was already peeling potatoes.
Jiang Ning looked at Xue Chuchu, whose face was a bit cold, and said in her heart: 'She is so gentle and considerate...'
As soon as she thought of this, Jiang Ning scanned Tongtong's hut with her spiritual consciousness. She was curled up in the bed and sleeping. It was such a peaceful time.
Jiang Ning said, "I'll fry the vegetables, and you go call Tongtong for dinner."
Xue Chuchu's hand stopped for a moment, and then she pushed her fine hair behind her ears, with a bit of surprise on her face: "You?"
It's not that she doesn't want to believe it, but in the past year, Jiang Ning has always been the one sitting in front of the stove to help light the fire. If Aunt Gu is at home, he doesn't even need to light the fire, he can just sit there like an old man, it's simply
Too social.
Now, he actually takes the initiative to do the cooking?
Jiang Ning saw Xue Chuchu's disbelief and said, "I am responsible for the food, but you are responsible for waking up Tongtong who is lying in bed."
Xue Chuchu said in her heart: "Is there anything difficult to shout about?"
Jiang Ning knew very well that Tongtong was becoming increasingly arrogant. He warned: "Ask her if she wants to eat breakfast. If she doesn't want to eat breakfast, we will eat it first."
The two had a clear division of labor. Xue Chuchu took off her apron, turned around and went out neatly.
Jiang Ning straightened up lazily and drew a line of sword energy. He saw a piece of bacon on the cutting board being cut into even slices in an instant.
He won the bacon from Butcher Zhang. According to Butcher Zhang's boast, it was made by an old lady in the vegetable market and was never sold to outsiders. Butcher Zhang had been around the vegetable market for many years and could get good products.
In fact, the bacon that can be included in the "Uncle Zhang's Selection" is of really good quality, and the lean parts are translucent and golden.
With another move from Jiang Ning, the sword beans on the plate took off out of thin air.
The sword bean is a type of kidney bean, with a green and long flat shape, like a knife. Many people tend to confuse sword beans with kidney beans. In fact, it is indeed easy to confuse the two after they are shredded and stir-fried...
This was picked by neighbor Uncle Tang from his precious greenhouse and given to Jiang Ning. The fresh sword beans are paired with salty bacon and stir-fried with chili. It is quite delicious.
In addition to this dish, there is also a small eggplant next to it, which was also given by Uncle Tang. It is a perfect match with green peppers and is used to make vegetarian fried eggplant strips.
The sword beans, eggplants, and green peppers all come from Uncle Tang. Why is Uncle Tang’s greenhouse so awesome? How can he raise so many kinds of vegetables even though Dongdong often tears up the greenhouse?
Of course it was because Jiang Ning occasionally used magic power to maintain it.
Uncle Tang didn't know that the neighbors of Heba Bungalow now respect Uncle Tang very much, especially the teacher who took advantage of him the most, and respectfully call him "Shen Nong"!
He boasted so much that Uncle Tang really thought he was Shennong. I heard that someone hired him to guard the greenhouse at a high price...
Jiang Ning advised him to take it easy the day before yesterday, but Uncle Tang turned out to be a master.
Okay, Jiang Ning wishes him good luck.
…
Jiang Ning was cooking leisurely and contentedly at Chu Chu's house.
Xue Chuchu had arrived outside Tongtong's bedroom at this moment. She stood in front of the door and shouted: "Tongtong, get up."
The quilt was extra warm today. Tongtong was hugging the quilt, and she was deeply sleepy. She vaguely heard someone shouting, and then turned over without hesitation and continued to sleep.
Xue Chuchu shouted twice, but didn't get any feedback.
Xue Chuchu remembered Jiang Ning's instructions, and she changed it: "Jiang Ning said you shouldn't eat before you get up to eat. Let's eat first."
After leaving these words, Xue Chuchu turned around and left.
After hearing this, Xue Yuantong flew up from the bed and said angrily: "Okay, apart from breakfast, which meal do I usually not cook, and which housework do I not do? That's too much!"
Xue Chuchu turned her back at this time, her lips pursed slightly with a slight smile.
Twenty minutes later, Tongtong ran to Chu Chu's kitchen angrily to settle the score with Jiang Ning.
She stared with a pair of eyes, thinking that she was full of intimidation.
Jiang Ning put his hands behind his back and looked down at the short Tongtong. He said calmly: "How dare you look directly at Gu, how presumptuous!"
Xue Yuantong glared angrily, but she was too short and always looked small, unable to suppress her.
Xue Chuchu was almost laughing while watching the show.
At this time, Xue Yuantong had an idea. She kicked her feet, jumped suddenly, and her fingers actually touched the door eaves. It was really amazing!
She was extremely proud, because at that moment, she was sure that she was no weaker than Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning praised: "Oh, I haven't seen you for a few days, and my strength has become stronger."
Xue Yuantong crossed his arms and snorted coldly: "I practiced alone for a long time while you were away."
Jiang Ning didn't say anything. He took a step forward, without jumping or tiptoing. He just touched it casually and easily touched the door eaves that Tongtong could only reach by jumping hard.
The scene was somewhat frozen.
Xue Yuantong's face dropped, what did her efforts mean?
Xue Chuchu understood Tongtong so well, she encouraged: "Don't be discouraged, Tongtong, you can jump as high as 1.8 meters."
…
Today Xue Chuchu and Jiang Ning cooperated, so the injured person became Tongtong.
Xue Yuantong was a little sad and tried his best to eat the dishes cooked by Jiang Ning.
Xue Chuchu talked to Jiang Ning about what happened last night. After Jiang Ning accepted the money from the young people last night, he refused Lu Qiqi's dinner invitation. Zhuang Jianhui and others said that they would handle the rest of the matter.
"It was still too dangerous yesterday." Xue Chuchu said, there were more than a dozen gangsters. She had only seen this kind of formation at the entrance of the township junior high school a few years ago.
As she spoke, she took a bite of the sword beans. They were not only crisp and delicious, but also had the unique aroma of bacon, which was unexpectedly delicious.
‘His cooking skills are really good?’ Xue Chuchuxin said.
In the past, she read a post and said that her husband couldn't cook and his wife cooked all the meals at home. However, more than ten years after their marriage, the wife accidentally found out her husband's senior chef certificate.
Thinking of this, the corners of Xue Chuchu's lips raised slightly. If Jiang Ning hadn't revealed that he could cook before, he might be somewhat similar to his chef husband.
‘Huh?’ Xue Chuchu’s thoughts suddenly retracted, why did she think of this?
Xue Yuantong didn't pay attention to Chu Chu's expression. She was still sulking. First, she was sleeping peacefully, but was disturbed by Chu Chu in the name of Jiang Ning, and then was discriminated against by Jiang Ning because of her height.
What a bad luck!
Xue Yuantong snorted: "Those gangsters deserved their punishment last night. We didn't provoke them, but they still laughed at us."
Jiang Ning: "Indeed, wherever I go, they dare not smile at me, but instead dare to say disrespectful words."
Xue Yuantong sat upright and said: "When the emperor is angry, his body will be buried thousands of miles away!"
Jiang Ning applauded: "Bah bang bang!"
Xue Yuantong smiled with satisfaction and lost most of his anger.
Xue Chuchu couldn't integrate into them at all, but she couldn't just sit back and watch them go completely crazy.
Xue Chuchu rationally analyzed: "They are just a group of unlearned and unskilled hooligans, and we live a happier life than them. We cannot be in danger because of their provocation, and ultimately make us unhappy."
Xue Yuantong disagreed. She had retreated countless times since she was a child. Now that she has become stronger, why would she retreat?
She hummed: "Why should I quit if I'm happy?"
Jiang Ning has long been detached from the world. He said: "If I make them more miserable, won't I be happier?"
He calculated: "Yesterday I made a thousand yuan from a young gangster, and I will make you cool later!"
"Hehe, Jiang Ning, you are so good!" Xue Yuantong was delighted. She is Jiang Ning's staunchest supporter.
Xue Chuchu cursed: 'Tongtong, you are becoming more and more arrogant...'
At this time, Tongtong's cell phone suddenly rang. She answered the video call, and a pair of cute and playful faces appeared on the screen. They were twins.
Chen Siyu shouted: "Tongtong, you are eating. Shall we play games after dinner?"
"The man-machine who beats you..." Xue Yuantong complained.
The twins didn't even dare to match, so they could only fight against the human and the machine, and ended up being killed by both the human and the machine.
Xue Yuantong didn't want to play games with idiots because he couldn't find any meaning.
Xue Yuantong then refused: "Sorry, I have to go shopping."
Chen Siyu was disappointed: "Okay."
Xue Yuantong congratulated: "Be careful and don't get scolded by your teammates."
After hearing this, Chen Siyu swore: "If they dare to scold me, they will piss me off..."
Xue Yuantong: "Huh?"
Chen Siyu was extremely tough: "Then I will become fluffy!"
Jiang Ning: "Progress."
Chen Siyu thought: "Hey, it would be great if I woke up and the LOL level of everyone in the world dropped ten thousand times. I logged into the game and cleared my troops as usual, but thousands of people worshiped me! The commentator analyzed me day and night.
Excellent operation!”
Xue Yuantong looked at Siyu who was lost in fantasy and curled his lips...
Jiang Ning took Tongtong's mobile phone and showed them the food: "How is the food I cooked?"
To be fair, Jiang Ning's stir-fried dishes looked very good. Chen Siyu's eyes shone with an extremely exaggerated expression: "Wow, the stir-fried eggplant looks delicious. I want to eat this for breakfast!"
"Huh? There's also fried bacon with sword beans!"
"Wow, it's sword beans! sword beans!"
"Jiang Ning, you actually know how to fry beans!"
"I heard that sword beans are a vegetable that can be poisonous if not cooked properly. Most people don't dare to fry them at all!"
"Oh, buy it! Jiang Ning, you are really good at cooking, right?"
When Xue Chuchu heard their compliments, she put a piece of bacon on her chopsticks and forgot to eat it for a moment.
'Who are you? You are so good at bragging...' Xue Chuchu felt that she would never be able to say this.
The corners of Jiang Ningle's mouth curled up. Although it was fake, it sounded good, especially the twins who were identical.
Xue Yuantong said angrily in his heart: 'Nie Chen, sycophant!'
If Jiang Ning were surrounded by such people, he would not be able to float to the sky, he would only become arrogant and arrogant!
Just like those emperors in ancient times, they were bewitched by a group of treacherous ministers and brought chaos to the court!
Danger! Danger! Danger!
We must find a way to make Jiang Ning recognize their true colors.
Xue Yuantong's IQ is naturally outstanding.
Her eyes flashed and she immediately asked: "Siyu, I have a question for you!"
Chen Siyu's face brightened. Xue Yuantong, who was number one in her grade and even in the city, actually asked her for advice in a low voice. If she told her, wouldn't she honor her ancestors?
In the future, you can write on your resume that you have directed the number one job in the city.
Although he was clearly the instructor, Chen Siyu was extremely respectful: "Please give me a question!"
Xue Yuantong's little face showed a sad look: "A strange incident happened at my house. I made a basin of hot water before going to bed last night, intending to use it for washing in the morning. But look what happened, someone changed it to cold water for me in the middle of the night!"
"Siyu, can you help me find out who changed the water for me?" Xue Yuantong asked for help.
Xue Chuchu: "?"
Doesn’t the water naturally become cooler?
Yes, that's the case, but Chen Siyu actually analyzed it seriously, revealing his intelligence at a glance.
Xue Yuantong moved his face away and smiled secretly. Did you see Jiang Ning?
Those who compliment you and please you are just ignorant people!
What you need is not the weak, but the affirmation of a strong person like me!
…
After breakfast, it was around 9 o'clock, and the sun was shining brightly in front of the door.
Uncle Tang, who has always been calm, was sitting at the door bragging about his farming skills. Teacher Qian next to him kept praising him and pinching his broad bean flowers to eat with relish.
Zhang Ruyun was cleaning his battery car in preparation for a date with his girlfriend, but he was not as excited as before because his girlfriend said that an elder in the family introduced her to a man who owned a car.
Zhang Ruyun didn't tell his parents, he was ready to bear all this alone and win back his beloved female classmate!
At the farmhouse in the east, Dongdong had a work badge hanging around his neck and was guiding the guests around him to pick strawberries. He smiled the kindest smile he could.
People each have their own things to do.
After Xue Yuantong finished washing the dishes, he said to Jiang Ning: "Let's have beef and pork belly stewed with cabbage, vermicelli and tofu for lunch. I was reading the forum today and found that an old street opened a flower and bird market today. After buying beef, let's go shopping!"
Xue Yuantong has never seen the flower and bird market. He heard that it is very interesting, including bonsai, jade, flowers, and pets!
Jiang Ning said, "Okay, I'll take you on a bike."
Yao Yiyao sent a message today, saying that she was coming to visit and that she had to prepare some hard food at home.
Xue Yuantong secretly looked at Chu Chu's house and found that there was no movement. She said, "Jiang Ning, Chu Chu is obsessed with studying. Let's leave secretly."
When she came back from shopping, she would brag fiercely to Chu Chu.
Jiang Ning thought about it, he would stay in Heba tonight, and tomorrow, Teacher Guo would invite him to her city to eat delicious food, so he would give Tongtong the cold shoulder again.
So, they abandoned Chu Chu, drove the battery car, and set off in a hurry.
…
Fifteen minutes later, Xue Chuchu's figure appeared at the door, and she had packed everything up.
During breakfast, she heard Tongtong say that she planned to go shopping.
Xue Chuchu walked to Jiang Ning's house expectantly and found that the door was closed.
She was startled for a moment and thought: 'He will be at Tongtong's house sometimes.'
Xue Chuchu moved a few steps forward and was shocked to find that the door to Tongtong's house was also closed.
Xue Chuchu stood at the door of Tongtong's house for a long time, then turned around silently and returned to her home.
