Today, the same is done.

She naturally gave in to Chen Yuan's choice and settled for the "second best".

the difference is.

I didn't get a skirt that year.

Today, I got the doll myself.

"You're so cute!"

Holding the cute bear on the table in her arms, Xia Xinyu rolled happily on the bed.

Who could have imagined that a girl who was usually so quiet that she rarely spoke actively at school, when she was alone at home...

I'm actually so crazy.

.........

After returning home, Chen Yuan put down his schoolbag and prepared dinner for today.

Xia Xinyu said she would go back and put something away and come over to cook later, so Chen Yuan’s main task now was to prepare the dishes.

The meal consists of braised pork ribs, scrambled eggs, a piece of ham left in the refrigerator, and lettuce leaves.

What Chen Yuan has to do now is to blanch the ribs.

"As expected of the second prize, all the winners are in the middle tier."

The quality of the ribs that were drawn were not leg ribs with meat, but one pound of medium ribs that were cut evenly. If you paid for this portion, it would probably cost more than thirty yuan.

So, 167 yuan for living expenses is only enough to eat well in theory. If you don’t ask your parents for some, borrow some from your friends, or rob some from Zhou Yu, you can only hope for this kind of unexpected... gift from the sky.

But this is no accident.

Superpowers are used to fleece people.

The male protagonist of Qidian City: Buddy, you are using your superpowers in such a shameful way, quit the group. Put half a pot of cold water, throw the ribs in, add onions and ginger, sprinkle with cooking wine, wait for the pot to boil and white foam appears, take out the ribs, wash them with clean water, and the blanching process is officially completed.

The next step is to fry the ribs in oil until both sides are golden brown, then add star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves, light soy sauce, oyster sauce, salt... Of course, this is the process that Chen Yuan thought of, but Xia Xinyu said that the actual operation must be left to her.

Although having a little cook to cook for me is a great blessing in life, this is a complete negation of the cooking skills I have learned for more than a year...

dong dong dong.

There was a knock on the door and Chen Yuan went to open it.

"You didn't start it?"

As soon as she saw herself, Xia Xinyu asked directly, as if she was afraid that she would ruin the one pound of top-grade middle-grade pork.

[Wow, the chef is here. You are amazing.]

Well, Chen Yuan heard his own voice.

This is the first time.

The law that superpowers cannot be used on oneself was perfectly broken by the sarcastic aura that Chen Yuan was eager to overflow with.

Chen Yuan said: "I blanched it in water."

"Well, I'll take over next."

After Xia Xinyu walked in, she tied her apron around herself skillfully, then added oil and fried the ribs.

"Please boil a pot of water for me, thank you." Xia Xinyu shouted to Chen Yuan without even raising her head.

After filling a kettle with tap water, Chen Yuan boiled a pot of boiling water at the socket, which would be used as a great tool for braising the spareribs.

"Let's cook the rice. Just put one small box in for two people. After washing the rice, the water level should reach the second joint of the middle finger."

As the head chef with a monthly salary of 8,000 yuan, Xia Xinyu skillfully prepares side dishes for Chen Yuan, the apprentice with a monthly salary of 1,500 yuan.

"Done, what next?" Chen Yuan asked after turning on the rice cooker.

"Your work is over, go and have a rest." Xia Xinyu smiled at him, "Or, learn English for half an hour?"

Are you my mother?

"Don't you need me to do anything else?" The girl also has to do homework and go to class tomorrow. Even if she has to be a cook, Chen Yuan doesn't want to give her such a heavy burden.

"No, because it's a single stove, we can't do any simultaneous processes. After I stew the ribs, I'll come over and study English with you."

After frying the spareribs until both sides were almost perfectly golden, Xia Xinyu grabbed a handful of ingredients like a magician, not more, not less, and poured the hot water into the pot seamlessly at the moment when the kettle dinged and boiled. Then, she began to look for something similar to yellow rock sugar. Without even asking herself, she directly found the remaining rock sugar in the corner of a cabinet that Chen Yuan didn't even remember, threw it into the pot, covered it with a lid, and turned around to wash the lettuce leaves...

What happened in these few minutes caused Chen Yuan's cooking concept to collapse in an instant.

No, isn't it true that not everyone has to go through the following moments during cooking: "Oh shit, oil. It's the oil that splashes when it meets water!", "Star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves... where is the cinnamon?", "It's too burnt, turn off the heat first!", etc.?

I’m sorry, Lao Mo. Not only can I not study as well as No. 4 Middle School, but I can also cook better than them…

"what!"

Just as Chen Yuan was sitting at the small table and preparing to open his English textbook, he suddenly heard a shout from the kitchen.

"What's wrong?!"

Xia Xinyu was the kind of girl who would remain quiet even when committing suicide, so it was obviously abnormal for her to make such a sound, so Chen Yuan hurried over.

Then, Xia Xinyu was seen standing in front of the chopping board, covering her face and crying.

She didn't cry very sadly because she didn't choke, but you could tell that she cried very 'heartbreakingly'.

「Ahhh… wuwu……」

No, why is my heart crying too?

I don’t know what other people are thinking. Why do I need this super power?

Come on, Superboy!

Looking Xia Xinyu up and down, Chen Yuan asked, "Are you burned?"

Xia Xinyu shook her head.

"Did you see a cockroach?"

Continue to shake your head.

"Electrocuted?"

Still shaking his head.

In the kitchen, all possible physical and psychological situations that could happen were ruled out, and her heart was still sobbing. As if she had guessed something, Chen Yuan took out a few tissues, walked to Xia Xinyu, gently grabbed her wrist, and wiped her tears for her: "Have you thought of something? Cry it out..."

It must have been the scene that brought back sad memories. I thought of my mother cooking, and suddenly I felt sad.

But how do you understand the sound of “Ah!”?

Geez!

While Chen Yuan was wiping her tears, Xia Xinyu, with tears in her eyes, raised her hand, pointed at the chopping board, and finally said, "The eggs... are bad."

"..."

Chen Yuan gave a puzzled look, "Huh?"

That's it?

He didn't understand why there was anything to cry about.

If the egg is rotten, just throw it away. Even if my Chen family is in poverty, we won't cry over a rotten egg, right?

"Because the first three... all three were good, but after the fourth one went in, the bad egg fluid flowed in right in front of me... I just watched helplessly... ah!"

After describing this despairing scene that made anyone who heard it sad and cry, Xia Xinyu turned around, squatted on the ground, covered her face, and burst into tears...

Chapter 36 Xia Xinyu Wants Lucky

If you are bullied by a bad guy, beat the bad guy up.

If it was something else, Chen Yuan could comfort himself in this way.

But unfortunately, the bad guy...

Can't fight.

If he were to crack four eggs and the fourth egg was broken, thus ruining the entire bowl of eggs, Chen Yuan would probably have dropped the bowl.

So it’s normal for Xia Xinyu to cry.

Four eggs, each costing 70 cents, which is three yuan, which is even equivalent to the cost of breakfast for two people.

The Chen family, which was already not wealthy, was made even worse off because of these four eggs.

"Wait, I'll do it."

Xia Xinyu was bullied by a bad guy, so Chen Yuan naturally would not stand idly by.

"Come...what?" Like Brother Xiaosa drawing circles on the ground, Xia Xinyu turned around and looked at Chen Yuan with tearful eyes.

"There is something wrong with the eggs. We cannot punish the eggs. However, we can find the source."

Xia Xinyu asked weakly, "Are you going to look for the hen?"

"Listen to what your mouth is saying."

"That is?"

Chen Yuan did not answer. He took out the box of eggs from the refrigerator, placed it next to the bowl with the bad eggs, took a photo of it, then opened Meituan on his mobile phone and sent the photo, which had a very obvious meaning, to the other party.

If you don't return the money to me within ten minutes, I will blow up Xiahai City.

If the relevant departments do not intervene, I will guide the Three-Body Lord.

Sunshine Supermarket: What’s wrong, honey?

Mr. Chen: The eggs I bought today have some bad ones. You can see that there is a trademark printed on the eggshell.

Sunshine Supermarket: Ok dear, we are really sorry for causing you an unpleasant shopping experience. We will refund your money right away.

"Okay! You can refund the money." Chen Yuan happily conveyed this good news to Xia Xinyu.

Xia Xinyu was stunned when she heard this, then quickly stood up, wiped her tears with the back of her hand, came close to him, and stared at the phone together.
