Chapter 218: Eating Melon in the Age of Literature (Thirty)
The last time I saw Meng Yao was more than twenty days ago.
At that time, Meng Yao must have just traveled to this other world.
She was a little confused and uneasy.
But, there was a burning light in her eyes.
She also exudes a strong sense of confidence and perseverance.
However, in less than a month, Meng Yao has undergone obvious changes——
The light in my eyes is still there, but it's not as dazzling as it used to be.
She has become much more "tame", and the sharp edges and corners that were highlighted by her self-confidence have also been smoothed a bit.
She was even a little unsure.
"Meng Yao, what happened to her?"
Gu Qingcheng couldn't help but wonder in her heart.
Her tone sounded like she was sighing, rather than really wanting an answer.
Huoshui couldn't hold it back and jumped out excitedly, "I know! I know! This is called PUA!"
Gee, mind control methods like PUA are indeed so powerful that even the ancient ancestors who traveled through time were affected by it.
As expected, Gu Qingcheng heard Huoshui's "show off" and was secretly satisfied, but remained calm.
He continued to "mutter" to himself with his spiritual consciousness, "Did Lu Xinhua do something? It shouldn't be. Although Lu Xinhua is a bit extreme, his three views are still normal!"
That PUA doesn't sound like something a serious person would do.
"I know this too! In fact, Lu Xinhua is not deliberately brainwashing Meng Yao."
The misfortune continued to bounce around in Gu Qingcheng's sea of consciousness, "He just happened to be lucky! Meng Yao sued his biological father and was ostracized."
During that time, she herself had just arrived, and she was full of hesitation and loneliness.
The pointing fingers from her neighbors and the dismissive looks from her colleagues made her seem to be surrounded by all kinds of negative emotions.
Lu Xinhua jumped out at this time, still with the attitude of "Don't be afraid! I support you!"
Feeling Lu Xinhua's kindness, Meng Yao regarded Lu Xinhua as a friend even if their views were different.
However, little did Meng Yao know that her “only” friend happened to be the prerequisite for her being PUA——
Social circles have become narrower.
Lu Xinhua was the only one left in her world.
Therefore, even if Lu Xinhua did not intend to mentally control Meng Yao, she slowly began to rely on Lu Xinhua.
As for Lu Xinhua, although he didn't mean it, he always has a bit of a man's bad nature - he likes to elevate himself and belittle women.
The drama of PUA was staged, and it exerted great power.
Gu Qingcheng probably understood the meaning of "PUA" from Huoshui's explanation.
It seems reasonable, but Gu Qingcheng still raised doubts, "It's not just mental control! There should be other reasons."
Gu Qingcheng suddenly thought of a word and asked tentatively, "Is Meng Yao Lu Xinhua's 'destined' heroine?"
Huoshui didn't react for a moment and blurted out, "How did you know?"
Very good, Gu Qingcheng is sure that Meng Yao's change should be due to "God's" arrangement in addition to Lu Xinhua's reasons.
"No way! Is the plot so powerful? Is the female protagonist Meng Yao forcibly depraved after meeting the male protagonist?"
Huoshui took in Gu Qingcheng's guess and couldn't help but mutter to himself.
Gu Qingcheng remained calm and memorized some of the new words Huoshui mentioned.
The power of plot?
Forced intelligence?
"Huoshui, you mean that according to Meng Yao's original temperament, it is impossible for her to be with Lu Xinhua, right?"
Gu Qingcheng already had a more certain guess.
Meng Yao is a really talented person who can start a family.
She must be very strong inside.
Even if she comes to a strange, brand-new world, she will be confused and briefly confused, but she will not be truly afraid.
With her tenacity and open-mindedness, how could she be PUAed in such a short period of time?
What is the right time, place, and right people?
They are all excuses!
yes!
Meng Yao sued his biological father, seemingly risking the disapproval of the world.
However, this era is not an ancient dynasty with strict rules.
In the 1960s, there were still very positive and progressive new ideas.
Meng Yao was indeed ostracized by her neighbors and colleagues.
But as long as she sticks to her heart and works hard, she can always change her situation——
Cooking skills!
It is also a unique technology!
And people with skills are awesome.
"Character" is not important.
Let’s not go too far, let’s take Meng Yao’s cheap and scumbag father as an example. As a son-in-law, his true colors were revealed after the death of his father-in-law. His character would be better?
Even if everyone didn't know that Yu Sixing was his biological son at that time, his various behaviors repeatedly crossed the moral bottom line.
The discussions among neighbors and colleagues never stop.
The street staff even talked to Yu Xingwang and asked him not to force Meng Yao to drop out of school.
But, so what, Yu Xingwang still goes his own way, and he still holds the title of master chef in the restaurant!
So, character is never the decisive factor.
Ability is what!
Meng Yao was ostracized by the hotel staff and was not allowed to touch the stove?
Ha, what kind of difficulty is this?
Hundreds of years ago, there was such a strict rule of male superiority and female inferiority. Could it be that Meng Yao's cooking path was so smooth?
She probably had to work hard to learn skills from her master!
Not allowed to touch, not allowed to look?
If Meng Yao had been obedient, she would not have become the founder of the Meng family cuisine and the ancestor of the Meng family, the master chef!
The person, still the same person, came to a more relaxed and free time and space, but suddenly became so easy to be influenced by the outside world and controlled by someone's mind——
This is simply not true.
"No wonder Meng Yao 'awakened'!"
Gu Qingcheng made some guesses and had the answer in her mind.
The word "awakening" was not her first creation, but was told to her by Huoshui.
Several fan stories overlap, the main characters are impacted, and the "plot power" that originally bound them becomes less stubborn.
So, Meng Yao and other heroines woke up.
It's a pity that by the time they realize this, it's too late, and their lives may be about to end.
They are even more angry than ordinary wish-makers, but they cannot change their fate on their own.
They can only take out the soul fragments and ask the so-called executor to help!
"Hiss! Your Majesty the Queen of Heaven, you are so powerful, you can tell the truth with just one word!"
Huoshui's CPU was running wildly, and it also switched from gossip mode to thinking mode.
Then I discovered, hey, Mr. Gu’s guess seems to be more reasonable and consistent with the facts!
"That's right! It must be the power of the plot. Meng Yao was forcibly reduced to intelligence!"
The more Wu Shui thought about it, the more he realized that this was the truth.
Gu Qingcheng had already obtained the answer from Huoshui, so he did not continue to waste words with Huoshui.
With a thought, she threw the trouble into the small dark room.
Huoshui: ...Dear Your Majesty the Queen of Heaven, is it really okay for you to just throw it away after use?
"I, I'm still an apprentice!"
While Gu Qingcheng was communicating with Huoshui, Meng Yao pinched the corner of her clothes and said very unconfidently, "I'm afraid, I'm afraid-"
When saying this, Meng Yao did not forget to see the waiter.
Therefore, what she is afraid of is not that she cannot cook well, but that she will be further excluded and ridiculed by her colleagues after she "comes into the limelight"!
"What are you afraid of? I'm not afraid of anyone eating!"
Gu Qingcheng understood the crux of Meng Yao's problem, and she suddenly became "arrogant".
Snapped!
A wad of money and food stamps were slapped on the table.
Like a nouveau riche, Gu Qingcheng shouted domineeringly: "Braised pork, stewed chicken, pork sausage, fried fish...any other special dishes, please give them to me!"
"Our masters and apprentices are doing technical support in a factory in the mountains. After a tiring day, we just want to eat something comfortable!"
Gu Qingcheng is not just playing tricks, she links her enjoyment of food with her work.
"Yes! Master worked too hard today. He went to his brother's unit to support us, but by the end he didn't even have a bite to eat!"
Several apprentices agreed one after another.
The few customers who were still eating in the restaurant were a little displeased to see Gu Qingcheng's "overbearing" and "rich rich" appearance.
However, after listening to the words of Gu Qingcheng and several disciples, they were all relieved——
So this is ah.
I was supporting a brother unit. I had been busy all day, but I didn’t have anything to eat or drink at their place.
It is perfectly reasonable for a master to be kind and kind enough to return to his own unit and spend his own money to treat himself and his apprentices to a good meal.
It was the hotel manager who originally wanted to sound official and dismissed Gu Qingcheng.
But at this moment, he couldn't say anything.
"Yes! We should really let the chefs eat comfortably!"
The hotel manager quickly lost his smile.
But the waiter was still a little angry: If you have the skills, what's wrong with being able to go to your brother's unit to support you?
Who is not a formal worker yet, who has not yet contributed?
Humph, you are the only one who is awesome!
The waiter was dissatisfied, but she was not stupid and did not dare to refute it directly, so she pretended to be embarrassed and said, "But there are not many dishes in the kitchen."
It’s both chicken and fish. Do you really think their hotel is a warehouse, with everything you need?
Restaurants these days don't really care about ordering food. Instead, the restaurant cooks whatever they have, and the customers eat whatever they have.
Lack of ingredients is the best excuse a waiter can use when trying to frustrate (embarrass?) customers!
"You don't have one?"
Gu Qingcheng glanced at the waiter, saw her nodding, and grinned, showing her white and neat teeth, "I do!"
Waiter:……( ̄△ ̄;)
Hotel manager:……(⊙_⊙)
Meng Yao didn't react much. A pheasant, a bunch of mushrooms, a fish, and a bunch of vegetables were stuffed into her hand.
Meng Yao seemed to be deep in a dream, and when he walked, his whole body felt like he was drifting away.
Suddenly he returned to the kitchen, washed and cut vegetables.
Her mental state is not online, but she has strong memory muscles.
As soon as her hands touched the kitchen knife and wok, she seemed to be possessed by something.
After changing his trance and cowardice, his whole person exuded a powerful aura from the inside out.
Dang Dang Dang!
The kitchen knife flew and various side dishes appeared on the chopping board in perfect shapes.
boom!
The flames on the stove were blazing high.
Bang bang bang!
Meng Yao was very familiar with the large iron pot, which weighed more than ten kilograms, and used only one hand.
Not long after, a tantalizing aroma came out of the kitchen...
