Chapter 22 Let me cook for my aunt (22, please follow up)
Not knowing that she had been introduced to the school team, Yang Jie followed her original plan and took the hyperloop home at a speed of up to 1,000 kilometers per hour as soon as the weekend arrived.
Although the track of the Hyperloop is closed all the way, it is still on land. Through the car windows and the glass cover on the track outside, the mountains, forests and rivers along the way can be seen at a glance.
This is the first time Yang Jie has seen the outdoor natural environment in so many days.
"It doesn't look that bad. Why are you all living underground?"
His deep voice sounded in Yang Jie's conscious space.
"Because it happens that the weather today is pretty good, the wind and the sun are beautiful. If you encounter strong winds, heavy rain, or haze, you don't know how terrible it is to be outdoors. Moreover, you may see that the scenery outside is good, but in fact the air quality is not good.
If you stay outdoors for a long time, you will develop rhinitis, skin diseases and other chronic diseases."
Yang Jie said silently in her heart, with an understatement, as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her.
It's not irrelevant, it's just too common and has already become common sense in their time.
"Has the impact of the war been so great?"
Yang Jie felt a little incredible.
"It's huge! A city as big as Xanadu is just like the ruins of a city in the game. But looking around the world, there are countless cities and even countries that have been destroyed by war. Several countries still have severe nuclear radiation. It's basically
It’s uninhabitable.”
"We are lucky and have been working on environmental restoration. This is what my mother does! We can still see green mountains and green waters, and extreme weather has been decreasing year by year. These are all inseparable from their efforts!
"
"But this is not a loss that can be undone in one generation. For now, we still have to live indoors. Crops and animal husbandry are all raised in greenhouses. Fortunately, our construction industry has made rapid progress in the past few decades.
, to keep up with such a huge construction demand.”
Yang Jie said.
"It turns out that the civil engineering you studied is so important. Just like doctors and nurses, they are determined to save lives and heal the wounded. You are determined to save the earth!"
Yang Jie was in awe.
"No, I studied civil engineering mainly because it is easier to find a job and the salary is higher than in other industries."
Yang Jie rejected great sentiments, she is a very realistic vulgar person.
The hyperspeed train with a speed of 1,000 kilometers per hour is indeed fast. In about an hour, Yang Jie returned to her hometown of Pingcheng. However, the driverless taxi on the ground took another half an hour to successfully deliver her to her doorstep.
Unlike Xanadu, which is advanced and developed, Pingcheng is only a third-tier small city. The main transportation here is driverless cars on the ground, and most people live in buildings on the ground - but the buildings have been specially renovated and also have air filtration.
and circulatory system. Even if there are underground cities built, compared with those in the Magic City, the underground cities here can only be regarded as small underground spaces, far from the level of a "city".
Yang Jie's home is also an old community building. In Yang Jie's opinion, both the appearance of the community and the layout of the house can be regarded as a normal commercial housing of their time. However, in Yang Jie's opinion, it has long been outdated and far out of date.
The land cannot keep up with the pace of development of the times.
The most intuitive point is the modified windows - in order to shield the polluted outdoor air and install a filtration system, the originally bright windows look small and airtight. Even if the curtains are opened, there is not much light in the daytime.
Come in.
"Mom, why don't you turn on the lights at home?"
After Yang Jie opened the door, she pressed the smart switch and asked it to turn on the lights in the whole house. The dark room became brighter, so that Yang Jie would not think that she had entered the basement by mistake.
"Why are you turning on the light? I just wanted to go back to bed and take a nap. Ahem, why are you back again? Are there no classes?"
Yang Jie's mother came out of the back room when she heard the noise.
Yang Jie's mother is Jiang Yina. She is a middle-aged woman with a wavy hair. From the violent cough just now and the bony arms under her short sleeves, it can be seen that her health is indeed very bad!
"Today is Saturday, we don't have classes on the weekend. Besides, if we have classes, don't we have to come back to celebrate your birthday with you?"
Yang Jie held her mother's hand and acted affectionately.
"Okay, okay, even if you come back, mom will have to cook for you on your birthday."
Jiang Yina rubbed her daughter's head and said with a smile.
It was noon when Yang Jie returned, and Jiang Yina walked to the kitchen, put on her apron and prepared to cook.
"Whenever I learn how to cook, I will cook it for you! By the way, Mom, don't cook too much, and you don't have to cook too much at night. I ordered a big cake, just the two of us, we will definitely not be able to finish it at noon.
Let’s eat again in the evening.”
Yang Jie followed into the kitchen.
"There are just two of us, why would you order a big cake? Isn't this a waste?"
My mother's criticism came quickly.
"We must order a big cake! Your fortieth birthday, such an important day, shouldn't it be a grand one?"
In addition to the gifts for her mother, Yang Jie's bag also contained some decorations that she had bought in advance and would be posted on the wall later.
"Be more solemn. Go to Xanadu to study and stay there peacefully. Don't come back every two days to affect the lives of your mother's middle-aged and elderly people."
Jiang Yina expressed her disgust.
"Is your mother only forty? I thought she was already fifty. She looks a bit um, but she is indeed not in good health."
When Yang Jie returned to the living room, Yang Jie talked to her in the conscious space. He wanted to say "look old" at first, but he suddenly realized that it was not a good word to use such a word to describe women, so he quickly changed his mind.
"Well, she is in poor health. It's just that she worked in very polluted air in her early years."
Yang Jie heard his subtext, but she didn't want to discuss the age issue with Yang Jie.
"Your fortieth birthday is very important! How about you stop asking your mother to cook? People have to cook for you on their birthdays."
Yang Jie hesitated and suggested.
"My mother doesn't cook, what will I eat? Oh, yes, I can order takeout."
Yang Jie patted her head.
"No, I mean, how about I cook for Auntie?"
Yang Jie spoke hesitantly.
"You cook?"
Yang Jie had a strange expression, but it wasn't because she was surprised to hear Yang Jie say he could cook, but because Yang Jie called her mother "auntie".
Auntie, you have the nerve to say it!
When were you born?
When was my mother born?
"I know how to cook. I used to live in Europe and I wasn't used to their food, so I would occasionally buy food to make Chinese food. Every time I made it, my teammates liked to come over and eat it. They all said it was delicious.
Don’t worry.”
Yang Jie quickly explained.
Of course Yang Jie knew about this, she had seen Yang Jie's memories.
"I haven't cooked in thirty years, how are you doing?"
"I was asleep for those thirty years, and it felt like it didn't take long."
"Then you try?"
Yang Jie accepted his proposal. On her mother's birthday, she really should be allowed more rest. How could she still let her cook for her?
"Don't worry, although I'm not as powerful as a hotel chef, I can definitely make simple home-cooked meals for you!"
Yang Jie is full of confidence.
