Chapter 9 Delicious

Pushing the car and walking under the sunset, Shen Lin felt that his whole body was about to fall apart!

But looking at the things on the car, I felt extremely satisfied.

There was a human-powered tricycle with only one wheel left and the bottom of the carriage rusted away, two broken radios, and a soldering iron bought from a hardware store.

Originally, Shen Lin was not confident about whether he could buy a soldering iron, but he did not expect that the soldering iron was actually available in the hardware store and it was free of charge.

This situation made Shen Lin overjoyed, and he also felt more and more that the supplies now were becoming more and more abundant.

The money in my pocket has turned into twenty-seven yuan and six cents. This is today's net income after buying items such as soldering irons, screwdrivers, etc.

Practice makes perfect. Yesterday, the waste collection business just started, and you still had to figure it out on your own. Today, at the same time, we collected one more unit of waste than yesterday.

The butcher shop was closed, and Shen Lin didn't expect to buy meat at the butcher shop. After all, meat tickets were needed here. The reason why he came here was because there were often farmers selling their own chickens and ducks here.

Sure enough, after Shen Lin glanced at the butcher shop for a few times, someone came over carefully and said, "Brother, do you want to buy some chicken?"

While talking, the visitor pointed to a black rooster hanging on a stick.

Shen Lin looked at the dark and anxious face of the visitor, and smiled and said, "How much do you want?"

"Two yuan and a half, forget it, just give me two yuan." The man seemed to be afraid that Shen Lin wouldn't want it, so he took the initiative to lower the price.

Shen Lin looked at the look on the visitor's face and knew that he was an honest man. Although it was not easy for him to make money, he was not willing to take advantage of others.

"I'll give you two dollars and a half. If you have any good cocks in the future, just keep them for me." As Shen Lin spoke, he took out two dollars and a half from his pocket.

The man selling chickens never expected that Shen Lin would take the initiative to give him more money. In addition to being surprised, he was even more excited.

"Just two yuan, this...why is this so embarrassing?"

Shen Lin looked at the man's incoherent words of gratitude, smiled and said: "It's not easy, not to mention that your cock is worth two and a half dollars."

"Thank you, brother. I'm often here. If you need anything, just ask." After the man who bought the chicken handed the rooster to Shen Lin, he handed over a plastic bag and said, "You can use it to mix the potatoes grown at home. It’s better to stew the chicken together.”

Chicken stewed with potatoes is definitely a delicious dish.

In this world, love and food are the only things you can't live up to.

Shen Lin made up his mind to change his image in Lu Xiaorong's eyes. Of course, he would not refuse this delicacy.

I pushed the flatbed truck back to my residence. At this time, the small courtyard was already bustling with people. People after work were drinking water from enamel jars and chatting. There were even children after school, regardless of the hot weather, hanging out with friends in the courtyard. He pushed the hoop and ran wildly.

Shen Lin's return attracted the attention of many people. Some people looked at the black chicken on his flatbed truck and couldn't help but look envious in their eyes.

After all, in this era, even workers' wages are only forty or fifty yuan. If you want to eat meat, you have to rely on meat coupons.

Let alone a week, some families cannot have one meal of chicken in a month.

But while they were envious, many people showed disdain. This second-rate guy had already been fired from the factory, and he was still so lazy and lazy. Wow, he pitied such a good girl like Lu Xiaorong.

Shen Lin could feel these glances, but at this time, he had no intention of paying attention to what these people were thinking.

He put down the flatbed truck, then carried the radio, soldering iron and other items in a pocket and went upstairs. He didn't have a watch now, but according to experience, Lu Xiaorong should not be off work yet.

After washing his hands, Shen Lin walked into the kitchen. Although the kitchen was small, it was quite complete with pepper, ginger and garlic.

Looking at a bunch of red peppers, Shen Lin suddenly had the idea of ​​making a big plate of chicken. Before time travel, he had never remarried after his divorce, so he had to make three meals a day by himself.

Software such as recipes and kitchen apps are items that he uses almost every day, so Shen Lin's meals become more and more delicious.

But at that time, he could only eat the food he cooked, so he didn't have much motivation at all.

But now, it's different.

Dishes like the large plate of chicken pose no challenge to him.

Killing chickens, removing feathers, cleaning...

In just half an hour, Shen Lin stewed the chicken into the pot...

Lu Xiaorong dragged her tired body back downstairs. This afternoon, she was learning to operate the machine in the workshop, but what she thought about the most was Shen Lin's affairs.

What her mother said was not unreasonable, but the way Shen Lin was selling scraps this morning made her heartache.

Although she did not go out to meet Shen Lin in the end, that scene touched her heart.

He is not a complete failure. Why should I not believe that he will one day make a comeback?

Just when Lu Xiaorong returned home in a complicated mood, he happened to see Shen Lin peeling garlic. Before she could speak, Shen Lin had already smiled and said: "Daughter-in-law, you are finally back! I made a large plate of chicken." , It’ll be fine in a while, you go wash your hands and rest first.”

Lu Xiaorong had no idea what Dapanji was, but the rich aroma strongly aroused her appetite.

After hesitating for a moment, Lu Xiaorong couldn't help but ask: "Didn't I just eat fish yesterday? Why do you want to buy chicken today?"

"You are too thin and need to strengthen your nutrition now."

"It's only two yuan. I sold scrap newspapers today and earned more than ten yuan." Shen Lin whispered: "You can go to Aunt Chen later and give her two months' rent."

Listening to Shen Lin's words, Lu Xiaorong was speechless.

Although he still felt that Shen Lin's habit of spending money lavishly had not changed in his heart, he did earn this money.

Moreover, Shen Lin earned it through his own hard work.

While washing his hands, Lu Xiaorong made up his mind that no matter whether he still lives with Shen Lin in the future, he must have a good talk with Shen Lin and let him spend money and not be so lavish.

But just when she was about to speak, an urge to vomit suddenly came up. This was the third time today. After Lu Xiaorong took a sip of water, he thought that his stomach was really strong. I ate good food for a few days and that was it.

In the large white porcelain basin, the chicken is smooth and spicy, the potatoes are soft, glutinous and sweet, spicy and fragrant, thick and thin, coupled with the layer of green chives, just looking at the color makes people salivate, and it is uniquely appetizing. When he got closer and smelled it, the aroma of chicken hit his nostrils and hit his taste buds. This gave Lu Xiaorong a huge impact after a tiring day.

Shen Lin brought two small bowls, placed one in front of Lu Xiaorong, and greeted diligently: "Daughter-in-law, hurry up and try my craftsmanship!"

Although Lu Xiaorong really wanted to talk to Shen Lin about spending money lavishly, but the tangy aroma had already made her hungry stomach rebel.

Put a piece into your mouth and take a bite. In addition to the tender chicken juice, the firm chicken also has a scent of green onions and a spicy taste. It is paired with soft, sweet and sweet potatoes, which are pink and melt in your mouth. It is absolutely delicious. It is the best in the world!

Fragrant, spicy, numb...

The rich experience captured Lu Xiaorong's taste buds. Lu Xiaorong felt that he had never tasted such delicious food in his life.

She looked at Shen Lin blankly, completely in disbelief.

According to Lu Xiaorong's feeling, Shen Lin can definitely become a chef with his skills.

At this moment, Lu Xiaorong felt that he really didn't understand Shen Lin. Not only did he know how to repair a radio, but the food he cooked was so delicious!

"How is it? Do you want to have another piece?" Shen Lin looked at Lu Xiaorong, whose face was full of enjoyment, and felt a little proud.

Not caring what to say, Lu Xiaorong couldn't wait to pick up another piece of chicken and put it into his mouth. In just over 20 minutes, most of the large pot of chicken and potatoes was destroyed. Shen Lin got into the kitchen and cooked it again. Put the strands of noodles into the soup. The noodles are covered with the thick potato juice. They taste slippery. They not only have the flavor of potatoes, but also have a hint of chili pepper. It’s great!

After finishing the meal this time, Lu Xiaorong firmly demanded that he wash the dishes. Shen Lin argued with this request for a while and then agreed.

However, while washing the dishes, Lu Xiaorong suddenly discovered that a large piece of oil had been dug out of the oil can.

This is the amount of oil their family uses in half a month.

She wanted to say something to Shen Lin, but when she thought about the chicken she ate today, she couldn't speak.

After all, it is quite enjoyable to eat by yourself.

"Daughter-in-law, you rest at home first, I'll go out for a while." Shen Lin's voice came from outside the kitchen.

Hearing this, Lu Xiaorong's heart skipped a beat, and she couldn't help but ask, "Where are you going?"

"I have something to do with Qiangzi." As Shen Lin spoke, he walked out.

Lu Xiaorong, who was washing the dishes, stopped for a moment. Qiangzi was one of Shen Lin's dog friends. Shen Lin went to find him. Is it true that as his mother said, dogs can't change their eating habits?
