You're not smart as a fuck.

You are just... cute, okay?

Chapter 99 Happy Birthday, Bao

The salary cap is 150 yuan, and after signing the star player Ji Wei Xia, only two-thirds of the salary space is left.

"What other prospects do you have next?" Chen Yuan asked Chef Xia.

"Roast duck is considered chicken and duck. Shrimp is considered seafood. So we should choose another meat." Xia Xinyu thought for a moment and said, "Of course, roast duck can also be considered meat. Don't you people prefer light and seafood diets here? You can buy some other seafood."

"It's your birthday."

Chen Yuan has already forgotten how many times he has reminded Xia Xinyu of the identity of the birthday girl.

Didn't she know that the birthday girl's words on that day were like rules and must be obeyed?

"It's fine with me, and I also need to slowly get used to your diet."

After Xia Xinyu finished speaking with a smile, she suddenly realized something and was stunned.

Then, looking at Chen Yuan, who was also reacting to something like him but obviously hadn't reacted yet, he quickly added: "What I mean is, after all, you might have to go to college here in the future, so you have to slowly get used to the food here."

Oh, that's how it is.

I thought you said you wanted to marry here in the future.

Then tell me what you think. You only dare to talk about it in your heart, right?

Just talk big, just talk big.

"I can do it. When I go to your place to eat, as long as the food is not very spicy, I can accept it." Chen Yuan said.

Although the dishes there are mainly spicy, and there are very few that Chen Yuan can eat, the taste of Xia Xinyu's cooking seems to have become coastal.

At least the few times he tried it, it was flavorful and not spicy.

It's quite interesting, and it tastes like the food from northern Jing.

"Then let's make another sweet and sour pork ribs and add a steamed sea bass." Xia Xinyu thought for a while and came up with this plan, "Of course, we also need vegetables, so lettuce."

After she said this, Chen Yuan gradually fell silent.

"What's wrong? Are you not satisfied?" Xia Xinyu asked puzzledly.

"No." Chen Yuan shook his head and said with mixed feelings, "As a wanderer in a foreign land, I have never eaten such a sumptuous home-cooked meal..."

"homesick?"

Xia Xinyu noticed the change in the other person's mood.

"That's not true. After all, school has just started." Thinking of today's dinner, Chen Yuan said truthfully, "It is indeed because of your birthday that I can eat so many delicious foods. I am grateful."

"Pfft." Xia Xinyu was amused and responded jokingly, "Thank you too. If you didn't celebrate my birthday, I would probably just cook some noodles tonight."

"Nothing."

After Xia Xinyu said this, guilt was like a boomerang, hitting Chen Yuan on the back of the head again.

If her aunt hadn't told her, she might have just spent October 10th like any other day.

And now she thinks that all this was intentional on his part.

"The eighteenth birthday is the most important. Next time it will definitely be better than this one."

Pushing the shopping cart, Chen Yuan walked in front and was not facing her when he said this.

"Eh?" Xia Xinyu followed behind in confusion, "Why didn't you have a good time this time?"

“Not awesome enough.”

"How could that be?" Xia Xinyu said sincerely, "How else can we celebrate our birthday? If the next one turns 18, we can just go to the riverside and release a lantern and eat something delicious."

Chen Yuan, I am easily satisfied.

"Besides, you're the one who'll be eighteen first." Xia Xinyu stood next to Chen Yuan and changed the subject, "When the time comes, you can come from home in advance, that is, two days before school starts, and I'll give it to you."

"No need to come early, I won't go back." Hearing this, Xia Xinyu was stunned and whispered, "Then why are you not going back..."

"You need to make up for the missed classes. There is no vacation during the summer vacation of the second year of high school. Is there a school like that?"

"Oh yes, I almost thought I was still a freshman in high school. I was so confused." Xia Xinyu finally reacted and smiled awkwardly.

Yes, at that time Chen Yuan had reason to continue staying in Xia Hai.

Unlike this winter vacation, he had no reason to stay in Xia Hai.

Chen Yuan continued to listen to his inner voice, and felt more and more that he was really incomplete in terms of his "heart".

My incomplete heart cannot be sold at a good price in northern Myanmar.

Looking back now, it was she who remembered her birthday, it was she who considered the arrangements for winter and summer vacations, and even the equation '504+121=625' was Xia Xinyu's major patented invention.

Oh, my heart is too delicate.

After they bought the middle ribs, had the sea bass prepared, and picked out the vegetables, Xia Xinyu suddenly stopped by the wine shelf and suggested, "We don't have to go to school tomorrow anyway, why don't we have a drink?"

"You've become a drunkard too."

Chen Yuan thought he was the only alcohol lover who didn't know what he did at school but thought he was very busy and needed some cold beer to heal his soul.

And Xia Xinyu, who gets drunk after one glass of wine, also likes this?

"Sparkling wine, the alcohol content should be a little higher." Xia Xinyu said confidently.

"Okay, as long as you're OK with that."

Okay, okay, Xinyu is ready.

"Actually..."

When Chen Yuan put a bottle of sparkling wine into the shopping cart, Xia Xinyu said slowly and with a smile: "Don't be influenced by some things on the Internet. Only a few people are extravagant. The life of ordinary people is like this."

Xia Xinyu realized that Chen Yuan felt that this birthday was very ordinary, so he promised her that he would have an amazing birthday next time.

But in fact, she was very satisfied.

No more expectations.

So boys, don’t think about those messy things.

"Hey, you found me."

Since the other party understood it this way, Chen Yuan had to pretend to be discovered and said, "I have been brainwashed by consumerism. I think it's perfunctory if I don't buy a big screen in Times Square to scroll Happy Birthday. You are teaching me a lesson."

"Stop talking nonsense, let's go back and cook."

Xia Xinyu patted Chen Yuan on the shoulder, urging him to speed up.

Come on, go celebrate your birthday.

You may think that the gift I gave you is cheap, or that it is disrespectful to the birthday boy to let me cook for him/her, or that it is mediocre to have no other activities except snacks and cakes. These are some of the anxieties that boys may feel when their abilities are limited.

But you obviously forgot...

Whether the spring outing is enjoyable or not depends entirely on who sits next to you.

…………

After the sea bass is processed, marinate it with cooking wine, green onion and ginger in preparation for subsequent steaming.

At this time, Chen Yuan used a toothpick to pick out the shrimp thread and open the back one by one, preparing for the salt and pepper shrimp.

Xia Xinyu, on the other hand, was very serious in cooking, trying her best to make a plate of sweet and sour spare ribs.

Dishes of this level of difficulty are definitely not something a player like Chen Yuan can touch.

Although both are classic delicacies, braised spare ribs are far less difficult to make than sweet and sour spare ribs.

That is the step of frying sugar color, which can be regarded as the finishing touch.

If there is even a slight deviation, the color of the ribs will be ugly.

If it’s too light, it won’t be colored; if it’s too dark, it will be burnt.

These four little cooks are so terrifying!

"I have processed the shrimp..."

"Shh." Xia Xinyu raised her finger to indicate that she could not be distracted.

Even she can't always make the sugar color right.

After a relatively 'long' process, crystal sugar bubbles appeared one by one, and the color of the sugar gradually turned dark brown. Xia Xinyu put the previously blanched ribs in, and added garlic and stir-fried. After almost every rib was dyed with color, she turned on high heat and added soy sauce, star anise and bay leaves, and finally poured in the previously boiled water to cover it...

After finishing this process, Xia Xinyu immediately left the room with the shrimps she had prepared, and reminded: "After the water boils, turn to medium-low heat and simmer for 40 minutes. Remember to turn them over with chopsticks to avoid burning the pot!"

"Okay, where are you going?"

"Of course it's my room. You only have one stove here, so how long will it take to finish it?"

After saying that, she slammed the door shut.

Chen Yuan stood in front of the pot, waiting obediently according to Sheng Xinyu's instructions.

Just then, a WeChat message came from my aunt.

Yun Danfengqing: Xiao Chen, have you already eaten? Looking at the empty table, he fell into deep thought.

Chen Yuan: Not yet, the food is still being served.

Yundanfengqing: Could you send me a photo later to see what you ate?

Send photos?

Damn it, I thought we were eating outside!

And she didn't know Xia Xinyu was her neighbor, let alone that they were celebrating their birthday in the same room. Her little niece was going to force her to drink...

But I can't refuse such a reasonable request.

So, A few moments later……
