I am a Chef in the Modern Era

Chapter 70: Rock Sugar Stewed Lemon

Views:

Old Yang was originally afraid that Mr. Shen and the others would not be used to living here, but he did not expect that Mr. Shen was not picky at all, and slept until dawn on the wooden bed. When he woke up in the morning, no one in the yard had woken up yet. I have always been used to getting up early, but I was worried that they would not sleep well, so I woke up extra early.

After he got up for a while, Lin Shuyi also came over.

Seeing that everyone was still asleep, he called Lao Yangtou to the kitchen in a low voice.

"Why did Grandpa wake up so early?"

Old Yang rubbed his hands together and smiled, "Isn't it worried that they won't sleep well here?"

Lin Shuyi smiled, reached out and patted Lao Yang's shoulder, "It's nothing, Grandpa don't need to be nervous."

Old Yang waved his hand, "Never mind, it's a little bit, I'm afraid that if I don't do well, even they won't have a good impression of you, look now, this family is all polite people, I'm relieved and don't feel nervous, but when people come to our place for the first time, they must be entertained, right?"

Lin Shuyi felt warm in his heart.

"Grandpa, go make some porridge. I'll take Shen Fu out to buy some breakfast. It's cold now, so it's inconvenient to cook at home."

Old Yang agreed and went to the kitchen to make porridge.

Lin Shuyi called Shen Fu, who hadn't woken up yet, and went out to buy breakfast.

As soon as they left, Mr. Shen and the others got up behind them.

After washing up, he asked Old Yang, "Xiao Fu and the others haven't gotten up yet?"

Old Yang put the rice into the pot, and handed Mr. Shen a glass of water with a smile, "Get up, let's go buy something early, because it's inconvenient to do it in the cold weather."

Old Man Shen also laughed, "This must be said by Xiaoyi, who is much more sensible than our little brat."

"No way, Xiaofu is also very sensible, and he listens to Xiaoyi when helping here."

After saying this, Old Yang reacted and looked at Old Man Shen's face. He was afraid that his words would make Old Man Shen unhappy, but Old Man Shen didn't seem unhappy at all. Instead, he said with a smile, "Old Shen The problem of strict control of the wife in the family is passed down from generation to generation, but it is not shameful to listen to the words of the daughter-in-law!"

Mr. Shen really regarded Lin Shuyi as the "granddaughter-in-law" of the Shen family. Old Yang felt a little awkward hearing the words of each wife and daughter-in-law, but thinking that this meant that the Shen family had accepted Lin Shuyi sincerely. Feeling happy again, Mr. Shen is older than him, but his mind is much more open than him, and he also sees the matter of Shen Fulin and Shuyi so openly, but he should learn more and reflect on himself.

After Mr. Shen talked for a long time, he took a sip of the water that Old Yang gave him.

After taking this sip, he narrowed his eyes.

"What kind of water is this? It tastes really good."

Slightly astringent in the mouth, it turns to sweetness, the sweet and fragrant taste reaches the taste buds from the tip of the tongue, and then slides down the throat warmly, very delicious.

Mr. Shen raised his glass and looked at it, only then did he notice that the water was light brown in color, and there was a sweet and sour aroma coming from his nose, but there was nothing in the glass.

Old Yang looked back and said with a smile, "Steamed lemons with rock sugar can invigorate the spleen and reduce phlegm. I always like to stew some on it in winter and drink it. If Brother Shen likes it, I still have a big can. Take it." Go back and drink."

Mr. Shen likes to drink tea very much at home, but he rarely drinks these sweet things. In his opinion, the drinks sold outside are either additives or saccharin. Sweetness is sweet, but it has no serious taste. This is the first time Drinking this kind of lemon syrup stewed by myself feels very delicious.

"Dad, Uncle Yang, what are you doing? Why do I smell lemon syrup?"

Shen's mother had just finished washing, and seeing the two of them chatting here, she also came over and said.

Mr. Shen laughed loudly, "Your nose is pretty good. I just took a sip. It seems that you drink Liyun a lot?"

"They all say this is a beauty treatment. I tried it myself once, but it was not very successful. It tasted a bit bitter, and then I bought it outside a few times, and it was too sweet. Anyway, it's not a serious drink."

Old Yang took out two cups that were turned upside down on the cabinet, and took out the small earthen jar on the refrigerator.

Shen's mother looked at the earthen pot in surprise, "I haven't seen this kind of earthen pot for many years, why do you still have it here, Uncle Yang?"

Old Yang smiled, "This earthen jar is quite old. It used to be used to hold these things. I'm used to it. I'm not used to the fresh-keeping boxes they bought. See it It’s fine, and I’m not willing to throw it away.”

Although it is an old earthen jar, it has been washed very clean. Stewing lemons in such an earthen jar is no worse than the deadly expensive crisper in the supermarket, and because it is opaque, the shelf life It will also be longer.

As soon as the lid of the earthen jar was opened, the sourness of lemon and the sweetness of rock sugar mixed together, Shen's mother's eyes were straightened, "This is the taste, this is the taste. I don't know where I drank it for the first time. This is the taste, and no matter where I bought it later, it didn’t taste as good.”

Old Yang took two spoonfuls of stewed lemon with a deep-bottomed spoon, put one spoonful in a cup, rinsed it with warm water, and the sweet and refreshing taste turned into water mist, which floated in the air.

"This can't be kept for a long time, and it will take half a month at most, so I didn't stew it too much. If you like it, you can drink it. It's not expensive, but ah, Xiao Shen's wife is right, this is not only clear The lung relieves cough, and it is said to beautify the skin, and it is the best for women to drink it.”

Shen Ma held the cup and took two sips, her eyes sparkled, "Then thank you, Uncle Yang."

The three chatted and laughed for a while before Father Shen came in, and he was full of praise after drinking lemon syrup.

Shen Fu and Lin Shuyi went to buy breakfast. They chose some salty ones that Mr. Shen liked, and some sweet ones that Lin Shuyi liked. They packed several small bags of various kinds separately, and then Only then went home.

When they went back, the four of them were standing by the kitchen, chatting and looking very happy.

Old Man Shen even rolled up his sleeves to help Old Yang. Shen Fu's eyes widened when he saw it. Not to mention them, even Old Man Wen, who had the best friendship with his grandfather, rarely saw Old Man Shen help like this What, it can be seen that the two people are talking happily now, but Mr. Wen would never do such things.

The corners of Lin Shuyi's mouth curled up slightly, apparently because he was in a great mood at this scene.

Good wife is really good Shen Fu saw Lin Shuyi so happy, and everyone really didn't have any grievances at all, so relieved... He hugged Lin Shuyi's waist.

Trying to show affection in public.

"We're back!"

The moment everyone turned their heads, Lin Shuyi pinched the soft flesh around his waist, and said to everyone with a smile while pinching, "I bought it earlier, grandpa, uncle, and aunt Shen, eat it while it's hot."

Shen Fu's hands were still around Lin Shuyi's waist, and it seemed strange whether they would match or not, and the expression on Shen Fu's face was even more strange, gritted his teeth and reluctantly greeted everyone with a smile, "Yes, hurry up, Tighten, take advantage of, heat, and eat."

After everyone entered the house, Lin Shuyi finally let go, Shen Fu's face turned pale.

Lin Shuyi actually didn't use any strength at all, but just felt that Shen Fu's behavior in front of the elders was unseemly, and he didn't use any strength at all in his hands. He was about to turn his head and teach Shen Fu a lesson, when Shen Fu covered his hands. His waist was bowed, his face was snow-white.

"I, I shouldn't be trying too hard, right?"

Shen Fu didn't speak, just clutched his waist as if it was in pain.

Lin Shuyi became a little panicked now, and regardless of whether the two of them were still standing in the middle of the yard, whether anyone saw it, he reached out to lift Shen Fu's clothes, "Let me see if I accidentally used some strength?"

Shen Fu finally stood up straight, allowing him to reach out to lift the sweater inside his down jacket.

The sweater was lifted up, revealing the well-textured abdominal muscles, which were white and clean without any trace.

"If you keep doing this, I really can't hold it anymore."

Shen Fu finally showed a meaningful smirk on top of Lin Shuyi's head.

After teasing enough, Shen Fu who wanted to take the opportunity to hug Lin Shuyi into his arms was wrong, because the moment Lin Shuyi knew that he was teasing him, he was annoyed and seriously squeezed Shen Fu's flesh, Then came a 180-degree turn.

Shen Fu's whole body is not well.

Just now Lin Shuyi pinched him twice as if he was seducing him, which made him want to tease him, who knew he would shoot himself in the foot!

But the two of them are like this now, he can't even cry, he can only groan and swallow the pain into his stomach.

Lin Shuyi let go, squinted his eyes and looked at him, "Can you still hold on now?"

Shen Fu: ... Baby feels bitter.

Stealing the chicken is not enough to force Mi's Shen Fu to share breakfast with everyone.

Lin Shuyi looked at Shen Fu's hands rubbed on his waist twice, and his heart ached, maybe it was a little too hard.

However, Lin Shuyi's heartache hadn't lasted ten minutes before she was pushed behind the kitchen door by Shen Fu and ate tofu in the name of serving him side dishes.

He was holding small dishes in both hands, shaking so much that he almost threw them to the ground, Shen Fu finally stopped sucking his lips, looked at his bright red lips and said with a smile, "It hurts when you pinched me, now I'm back in ten minutes One."

Lin Shuyi just wanted to put a plate on his head.

Shen Fu admired his masterpiece for a long time, and finally helped Lin Shuyi pick up the side dish in his hand and left first.

When Lin Shuyi entered the door, he didn't dare to raise his face.

In the end, Lao Yang accidentally discovered it.

"Xiaoyi, why is your mouth so red?! Could it be that I put too much pepper in today's side dish?!"

Mr. Shen looked up, coughed and lowered his head.

Shen's mother and Shen's father looked up at Lin Shuyi at the same time, coughed and lowered their heads at the same time.

Shen Fu raised his head and glanced many times, the corners of his mouth were grinning into the sky, and then he coughed nonsense in a serious manner, "Well, today's side dishes are so spicy."

Old Yang, who only put a little pepper, didn't know it was serious.
