"Xiao Lei, don't mind. Come on, follow me to the living room to play chess." The old man couldn't help but take Lei Ren's hand and lead him towards the living room.
The old man took out a chess set from the cabinet and asked with a smile: "Xiao Lei, can you play chess?"
"I know a little bit," Lei Ren said modestly.
"That's no problem, come and play a game with me." The old man quickly put the chess on the coffee table, and he and Lei Ren sat on each side. While playing the chess, he muttered, "This woman, we men don't understand, so let's
The women can talk to themselves."
The old lady pushed out the door and walked in. She saw Zhou Yan lying on the bed, her head buried deeply in the quilt, like an ostrich, which made the old lady laugh.
Zhou Yan turned her head and hummed aggrievedly: "Grandma, I'm so angry, but you still laugh, you don't have any sympathy at all."
"Okay, okay, it's okay for grandma not to smile." The old lady said, sitting on the bed next to Zhou Yan and asked, "But you have to tell me, why are you angry?"
Zhou Yan sat up from the bed, raised her lips, and said harshly: "Who said I was angry? I just can't get used to seeing that guy's proud look. I feel like I'm back at my own home."
"Really? Why didn't I notice that Xiao Lei was very proud?" The old lady patted Zhou Yan's back gently, squinted her eyes and smiled, "You must have prejudices against others. In the eyes of grandma, he is
A very outstanding young man is much better than those playboys introduced to you, but you tell lies with your eyes open and just find faults in others. This is not good."
"Grandma, you were deceived by his expression. He is actually very dirty inside." When Zhou Yan thought about Lei Ren being caught naked in the police station, she felt sick in her heart and got goosebumps on her body.
"Then tell me, what's wrong with him?" the old lady asked.
However, if Zhou Yan really told what happened that night, she was too embarrassed to say it. Her little face turned red from suppressing it. She quickly turned over the quilt, covering her blushing face, and said perfunctorily: "Grandma, he just doesn't want to do it anyway."
Okay, I just don’t like that guy, so you and grandpa shouldn’t waste time on him.”
"Hey, you kid..." Although the old lady liked it, Zhou Yan expressed her position and there was nothing she could do about it. Everyone knew that Zhou Yan had a bad temper. If she got angry, she wouldn't be able to pull five cars back.
The old lady had no choice but to sigh helplessly: "Forget it, since you don't like it, your grandpa and I won't care about you. I just hope you won't regret coming here in the future. But when Xiaolei comes to visit us, you can't show off to others anymore. Just
Just treat them as ordinary friends and you should be polite."
After hearing the old lady's words, Zhou Yan finally felt relieved. She quickly jumped up from the bed, hugged the old lady's back and shouted: "Long live grandma, long live understanding, you are the best grandma in the world."
.”
The old lady looked at her precious granddaughter with a dumbfounded look, and thought to herself: "Perhaps the fate between the two of them is not there. I just hope that she will not regret today's decision in the future."
Zhou Yan's door was pushed open again, and Zhou Yan followed the old lady and walked out.
Looking at his granddaughter behind the old lady, the old man asked with a smile: "Finally you can give up? Xiaolei and I have almost finished playing a game of chess."
Zhou Yan blushed at what the old man said. She quickly glanced at Thunder Blade out of the corner of her eye and saw that he was looking at the chessboard attentively and not looking at her. She breathed a sigh of relief and took the old man's arm and said coquettishly:
"Grandpa, don't I want to create opportunities for you and let him play chess with you?"
The old man laughed and said, "So, I still have to thank you?"
"No need to thank you, this is what a granddaughter should do." Zhou Yan patted her plump chest and said proudly.
"You stupid girl..." The old man shook his head, picked up one of his rooks from the chessboard, and was just about to place it on the table when the old lady's roar came from the kitchen.
"Old immortal, you know how to play chess, look at how the meat is stewed in the kitchen?" The old lady was so angry that she yelled at the old man directly in front of Lei Ren.
The old man blushed, stood up from the sofa and ran towards the kitchen.
Looking at the stewed meat in the pot, the old man knew that he had caused a big trouble. Even after being scolded by the old lady several times, he did not dare to retaliate and could only pretend not to hear.
"Hmph, what a good thing you did, today at noon, our whole family will eat your rotten broth." The old lady was still angry and snorted towards the old man.
Zhou Yan on the side quickly responded: "Grandma, grandpa was also careless in greeting the guests and forgot the time. If you want to blame it, I blame Thunder Blade. If it hadn't been for him, grandpa wouldn't have stewed the meat until it was rotten."
"Hey, you girl, why did you put the blame on Xiao Lei so easily?" the old lady said.
The old man also nodded and said, "It's none of Xiao Lei's business to blame me for playing chess and forgetting that there was meat stewed in the pot."
Hearing the old man's defense for Thunder Blade, the old lady's face softened a little. She just looked at the meat in the pot and sighed: "How are we going to eat this meat? I think we should go out to eat."
Zhou Yan knew that her grandmother had always had a mysophobia, and rarely ate out except for breakfast. She said this just to save Lei Ren's face, and quickly objected: "Who said you can't eat rotten meat? Stew the meat into soup."
In it, the soup is even fresher, we young people love to eat this kind of broth. Thunder Blade, don’t you think so?"
As Zhou Yan spoke, she secretly stretched out her hand and pinched Lei Ren's back, signaling him to express his stance quickly.
"Well!" Lei Ren nodded towards the old lady and continued, "Stew the meat in the soup and dissolve the calcium phosphate in the meat in the water. This is better for our human body than eating the meat directly.
Methods are more easily absorbed by us.”
"Old man, is this true?" The old lady couldn't help but ask, knowing that the old man often watched health programs.
The old man didn't know this theory anyway, but at this time, Thunder Blade was helping him out. Naturally, he could only agree: "There is this theory, but I haven't tried it. I don't know how effective it is."
"Then let's give it a try today." Zhou Yan quickly agreed, while giving Lei Ren a wink.
Lei Ren pretended not to see Zhou Yan's eyes, smiled and asked the old lady: "Grandma, do you have fresh onions here?"
"Yes!" The old lady nodded doubtfully and brought a small plate of chopped green onions to Lei Ren.
Under everyone's doubtful eyes, Lei Ren picked up the whistle in the pot, scooped up the large chunks of meat, poured out the soup inside, and poured the meat onto the cutting board.
"Lei Ren, what are you doing? Do we want to eat anymore?" Zhou Yan shouted and tried to stop Lei Ren, but was blocked by the two elders behind her.
"Yanyan, don't make any noise, Xiaolei is cooking." The old lady said in a low voice as she watched Lei Ren's movements.
"Cooking?" Zhou Yan snorted disdainfully, "What kind of cooking can a grown man like him do? I want to see how he fools around with it."
Lei Ren took out all the fresh meat that had not yet been stewed in the pot with a spoon, and placed them on the cutting board piece by piece. Then he took a bright kitchen knife from the side, rinsed it with water, and washed it.
of oil stains, and then point the blade to your face.
"What are you going to do?" Zhou Yan shouted in fright.
However, Lei Ren ignored Zhou Yan and pressed down a piece of meat on the cutting board. With a flick of his wrist, the kitchen knife flew away. Under Lei Ren's knife, the piece of meat had changed from an uneven piece of meat to a pile.
The meat is regular, and the movements of the thunder blade are smooth and smooth, which is pleasing to the eye and is simply impeccable.
Looks of surprise appeared on the three faces behind him, especially Zhou Yan in the middle, whose eyes were wide open, exactly like when she saw an alien.
"Why are you so good at cutting meat?" Zhou Yan asked in surprise after she recovered.
"Haha, hobbies." Lei Ren calmly put the kitchen knife back to its place, narrowed his eyes and said, "Who doesn't have some hobbies?"
After saying this, Lei Ren turned to the old lady and asked: "Grandma, is your bowl in the closet?"
"Ah? Well, it's in the closet." The old lady recovered from her surprise, nodded and said to Thunder Blade.
Lei Ren opened the closet, took out six white porcelain bowls, poured the diced meat on the cutting board evenly into each bowl, then reached out to pick up the chopped green onions in the bowl, and sprinkled the chopped green onions evenly over the meat.
Ding on.
After finishing this, Lei Ren used a slotted spoon to scoop up the diced pork and chopped green onions in the bowl, put them into the broth in the pot, and scalded them repeatedly until the diced pork and chopped green onions started to smoke, then put them back into the bowl.
Then he took another spoonful of hot soup and poured it into the bowl.
"Grandpa and grandma, you guys have a try." Lei Ren filled a bowl for the old man and the old lady respectively and handed it to them.
The second elder blew gently, then picked up the bowl and drank slowly. Until all the broth in the bowl was drunk, the second elder put the bowl on the table, with a satisfied smile on his face.
"Yanyan, come and try a bowl too. The broth made by Xiaolei is even more delicious than the one in those big restaurants." The old man said excitedly, his cheeks filled with red light.
"Really or not?" Zhou Yan dubiously took the broth handed over by Lei Ren and tried to take a sip. She felt that the meat was extremely tender and the soup was soothing and delicious. Her eyes lit up and she took a big gulp of the remaining soup.
Drink it all.
At this moment, the door outside opened, and a charming ******** walked in.
Lei Ren heard Zhou Yan call "Mom" and quickly called "Auntie". ******** nodded slightly and asked doubtfully: "Mom, Dad, what are you doing in the kitchen?"
The old lady smiled and said: "Yanyan, hurry up and give your mother a bowl of soup."
Zhou Yan followed her instructions and brought a bowl of hot soup to ********. ******** glanced at everyone suspiciously, lowered his head and took a sip of the soup. Then his eyes lit up and he couldn't help it.
Tao Kan said: "Dad, when did your cooking skills become so good? I have been drinking the soup you made for more than 40 years, and today's soup is the best."
