Make your face white with moonlight [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 142
Bai Yue felt that he couldn't explain the matter clearly on the phone, and was anxious to go to the hotel to pick up his parents and then talk about it.
Shi Chen definitely couldn't go to the engagement banquet, it would be over as soon as he showed up, so he waited at the place Bai Yue rented.Bai Yue thought about it and thought it was wrong: "Otherwise, I'll open a room, you can live in it, you are here with me, my parents come back to see you, what's the matter?"
In the end, Shi Chen was not happy.
"If I leave now, the impression of being irresponsible and being dumped on the day of the engagement will not be erased from your parents' hearts. We will be together in the future. I don't care what others think of me. Your parents in this life How you look at me is very important."
"Then how are you going to explain it? No matter how you explain it, you can't explain why you didn't divorce early, and you're only regretting it now. My parents are like many parents in this world. They are weak. What you said today, they feel that you Unfilial, I'm sorry Xia Nanyin..."
Shi Chen was also a little worried: "If you can't explain clearly, you have to explain. Make it clear that I am not unfilial, and that I cannot accept that my lifelong happiness is threatened. As for the temporary cancellation of the engagement, I have to sincerely repent. I really can't let go of my family property, so Utilitarian thinking, agreed to get married to get property; but after thinking about it, I feel that personal happiness is more important..."
"Well, after you say that, my parents probably have to beat you out and force you to apologize to Xia Nanyin. If they really contact the Xia family, you will be in trouble. Don't take the risk. You still Find a place to stay for a while, and then I will explain when my parents go back to their hometown. The reason..." Bai Yue thought about it, and coughed, "Otherwise, let's say that we have liked each other for a long time..."
"Huh? We didn't know each other before."
"You met when you went to pick up Xia Nanyin with Old Man Xia. You hit it off right away, can't you fall in love again?"
"Okay. What about after that? We both like each other and I promised to get engaged. Isn't that even more scumbag?"
"Listen to me." Bai Yue gently gave him an elbow, "We like each other, but you confessed to me, I think Qi Dafei has too many worries, so he didn't agree. When you are sad, When Old Man Xia threatened you that you would have nothing to do with the Xia family if you didn't marry Xia Nanyin, you felt that without your lover, you couldn't even lose your loved ones, so you agreed..."
Shi Chen looked at him with a strange look.
Between the two of them, because there are too many secrets, there are often things that cannot be explained to others. Usually he makes up stories. When the Western Fantasy world "creates gods", it is time to return to the original world to explain how the two met, Also when in love.As a result, now, yes, his family, A Yueqing, is better than Lan because he is better than Lan, and he can make up such a complicated story!
Bai Yue pointed at the table with his index finger and continued: "...after you promised to get engaged, you have been in torment every day. As for me, I don't feel very happy. I think about it day and night...don't laugh, just laugh. It's also because I felt uncomfortable, so I didn't go to this engagement banquet. Anyway, before your engagement banquet today, I finally admitted that I like you, and thought that you want to be with someone else, even my brother, so I called you and said I also like you after I met you, but after that, you are happy with each other... In the end, you suppressed it for many days and finally found out about my feelings. When you became emotional, you broke the boat and broke the engagement. How is it, isn't the logic very smooth and self-consistent?"
Shi Chen held the venue and applauded: "It's very exciting and very reasonable! But Ayue, if you're like this, the responsibility is all on you." It sounds very inappropriate for someone to call before the engagement banquet.
"Didn't you tell my parents in this world? As parents, no matter how angry they are, they beat me up, how can they really treat their children? Knowing that it was my fault, they can't pick and choose You. But if you are the one who is at fault, as you said, you definitely don’t want us to be together....Okay, I’m going to pick them up, don’t think too much about it.”
After Bai Yue finished speaking, he hurried out and drove to the hotel where Xia Shichen and Xia Nanyin were engaged before to pick up Ke's parents and Ke's mother.
Bai Yue originally thought that it would be difficult to persuade his parents to go back, but he didn't expect them to sigh and say that they should go back to their hometown when they received someone.
It turned out that when Ke's father and Ke's mother called Bai Yue, they said they would spend more time with Xia Nanyin, but when they comforted their adopted son, they also said a lot of things like "this rich family has a lot of things, it's better to go back to my hometown", and said to Bai Yue coincides with each other.
It's just that Bai Yue deliberately disliked Xia Nanyin, but his parents really thought so.This couple can't be said to be perfect parents, but they are kind and simple in nature. They really feel that it is bad to squeeze their heads into some high society, so they might as well go home and open a restaurant.
But Xia Nanyin felt extremely uncomfortable.
Things happened one after another today.When Xia Shichen left, most people said that he was unfilial, but many said that old man Xia had done too much, that he was partial to this, and that the good boy was in a hurry.What's more, the muttering that it's not a big deal to watch the excitement, how bad is Xia Nanyin?It stands to reason that if you get married, you will get married. The big deal is that the red flag at home will not fall, and the colorful flags will flutter outside the house. It will make Xia Shichen fight for his family business and refuse to marry if he doesn't want his surname. Xia Nanyin may not be able to point out any virtue.
— Not to mention that this argument is quite popular.
As soon as this person said it, someone echoed him: "No, I'm sorry that Mr. Xia insisted on marrying Xia Shichen with his grandson, otherwise, just let the two of them share the property? Why do the heirs who have done well have to sever ties? I must have felt that my grandson would not be able to find a partner after my death. You said that Xia Nanyin is not bad-looking, and she will be rich after dividing the family property. What is wrong with this that makes people unwilling to marry him?"
So a group of people spread out, some guessed that he had a serious disease such as epilepsy, some suspected that he had a hidden disease in the lower body, and some said that he had an extremely bad personality and could not read his face, so taking him out would guarantee embarrassment...
They chatted more and more happily, and gradually their voices could not be controlled, and some people laughed wantonly.
Xia Nanyin felt humiliated when she heard a few words, and she couldn't stop crying. She felt dazed and anxious, but on the other hand, she couldn't help getting into a corner, thinking that it was all because she was raised in a small household, He was not educated in the same background as these people, so they looked down on him. On the contrary, they were more determined to get along well in this circle, making these people today regret the idea of being afraid to speak ill of him.
At this moment, how could he listen to what his adoptive parents told him about going back to his hometown to live?Annoyed and almost wanting to choke back, she held back her voice and persuaded Ke's parents and mothers to go back to their hometown by themselves and not stay for him.
"How can this work? Your fiancé is not a thing, and we don't want you anymore, how can we rest assured?" Ke Ma said loudly, although she was speaking in the background, Xia Nanyin felt that she must be able to hear it from the front.
This was like the straw that broke the camel's back.Finally, Xia Nanyin couldn't maintain her usual gentle and decent image, she complained loudly with red eyes: "Mom, can't you lower your voice? Do you think I'm not ashamed enough?" Then she said: "You and my dad will go back to our hometown, you I can't help here, I have to take care of my grandfather and you and my dad, it's not messy enough."
Ke's mother felt uncomfortable: "You child. Your grandfather is not in good health. The engagement was cancelled. If we don't help each other, can you take care of yourself?"
"The Xia family has a housekeeper, a nanny, and a private doctor. Is there anything you can't take care of? You have never dealt with such a big scene. If you say it's a help, it might be a waste of help.——You can go back with my dad, don't make trouble .”
Because of this, Ke's mother still felt uncomfortable in the car driven by Ke Baiyue: "Why did I make trouble? I care about him! There are so many things, and there is no one close to him, such as housekeepers and nanny, those people Can't he figure out whether it's with him or with his fiancé who ran away? No matter if it's a blood relationship, it can't stop them from being a family living together. "
But whether he agreed to go back to his hometown the next day as originally planned, he didn't know whether he was relieved or discouraged.
Ke's father and Ke's mother left by train, and Bai Yue and Shi Chen immediately packed up their things and drove back.Originally, Ke Baiyue wanted to live in the capital for a while, to accompany Xia Nanyin, and didn't buy a ticket to go with his parents.But Bai Yue didn't intend to waste time here.
The two soon returned to the town where the Ke family lived.
Ke's parents didn't expect their son to come back like this at all, and they were so shocked when they saw Shi Chen that they couldn't even turn their minds. Bai Yue felt uneasy, but he still gritted his teeth and told the story he made up.
The parents were stunned, and Ke's mother clutched her chest with a look of wanting to go away.Papa Ke was panting like a cow, and raised his hands tremblingly: "You bastard! What kind of bastard are you doing? Ah? That's your brother's fiance!"
"Dad, no, I know I didn't think about it, but you also think about it, it's better for Xiaoyin now than after getting married? Don't you think it's better for Xiaoyin to be with someone who doesn't like him at all? Happier?"
"Stop messing around! Is this the same thing?" Mama Ke couldn't help scolding, but she still couldn't help but favor her own children and put the blame on Xia Shichen, "You're out of your mind! But what is Xia Shichen?" It's not a thing, he doesn't like Xiaoyin's blind promises! How can he go back on his promises?"
"Mom, I'm to blame for this! It was my hesitation at the beginning that made Shichen feel disheartened and agreed impulsively."
"Then he can't talk like that to Mr. Xia! Is this the attitude a son should have?"
"Mom, let me ask you, Xiaoyin has found a relative now, do you think he is not our family because of this? Will you say that he has no part in the property distribution?"
"How is it possible! The relationship has been more than ten years, and there is no difference between the biological and the biological... What do you mean by Baiyue? Don't you think of Xiaoyin as your younger brother?"
"I don't mean that. I'm just making an analogy. You see, you and my dad treat my younger brother. This is the real family. What about Mr. Xia? Shi Chen really treats him like a father, but in the end he found that Xia The old man has no feelings for him at all, how can he not lose? Old man Xia told him, if you still want to be my heir, you have to do as I say. Humans are not machines, how can they keep rational? At that time He... Cough, he is depressed after being rejected by me. Seeing that the elders are no longer elders, and even the family relationship will be lost, so he agreed in a moment of confusion? He must be too rash, but you can't completely deny him because of this. Yes or no?"
"In the final analysis, it's for money!" Papa Ke snorted from the sidelines, his nose is not his nose and his eyes are not his eyes, "Why did he agree? Isn't it because he was afraid that Mr. Xia would not let him inherit the property? If it's what you said, it's for the sake of father and son." Love, do you still think about property?"
"Dad, you are wrong to say that. Of course property is not the most important thing, but it can also reflect the problem. You see, some people say that they love you so much, but when it comes to the truth, they don't take it out. Can this be true? Care? You see, my mother just said that it is impossible not to share the property with Xiaoyin, but what about Mr. Xia? He has been raised for so many years, and later he is not in good health. The company is doing its best to take care of it. As a result, Xia When the old man finds his biological offspring, he is not willing to give him his property right away - if he wants to give it, the condition is that Shi Chen must gamble on his life's happiness. Do you think this is raising a son? If Shi Chen really cared about money so much, he wouldn't say that he gave up on the Xia family The identity has been cancelled, and the engagement is over."
"..."
The three of them started arguing at the door, and Shi Chen wanted to interrupt several times, but Ke's parents ignored him, treating him as air.He touched his nose with a wry smile: "Uncle and aunt, the neighbors are watching."
Mama Ke glanced at it, and sure enough, there were people poking around on the third floor of her commercial and residential building.She gasped for breath, dragged Ke Pa and Ke Baiyue into the house, and immediately wanted to close the door. Shi Chen blocked the door frame with a gentlemanly smile that appealed to middle-aged women, forcing her to let them go. came in.
The battlefield of the three members of the Ke family moved to the living room.Ke's father and mother were so angry that Bai Yue didn't dare to quarrel, but he tried his best to defend himself. In the end, the three of them were tired. Ke's father and mother gradually couldn't argue with each other, so they slammed the door and went into the back room angrily. , In the end, he didn't say a word to Shi Chen.
In fact, it's not that they didn't see that Old Man Xia was the most flawed and had a problem with Shi Chen's attitude, but parents can't help but think about it from the perspective of their parents. I don't care who is right, I feel that Old Man Xia is pitiful.And they love Xia Nanyin, Xia Nanyin lost her, so of course they couldn't help but blame Xia Shichen.
In the end, after making a fuss for a long time, there was actually something about his own son here?
Knowing that the cancellation of the engagement had a lot to do with Ke Baiyue, it would be hard to justify accusations—you blame Xia Shichen?Then who made Xia Shichen make up his mind to call off the engagement?Isn't it Ke Baiyue? !
The two voices in the two of them were fighting. On the one hand, they said that Xia Shichen was not filial and reckless, but on the other hand, they subconsciously followed Ke Baiyue's words, thinking that this child is also unlucky and pitiful, and his adoptive father raised him. , is someone who looks after the family property and protects the relatives and grandchildren.These two sides have their own reasons, but in the final analysis, they have different positions, which made their thoughts messed up and they couldn't make up their minds.
"What's the matter?" Shi Chen asked Bai Yue in the living room.
"It's a good thing you didn't beat me up. The timing of the two of us coming here... I can't explain why I regretted it at the engagement wedding. What can I do other than admitting it? Take your time—you are in my hometown now, separated from Xia Nanyin It should be much better. I'll change their minds by subtle influence." Bai Yue let out a sigh of relief, "Okay, don't worry about things for now, it's time to make dinner."
Watching Bai Yue roll up his sleeves and enter the kitchen, Shi Chen raised his eyebrows amusedly.At that time, technology was so advanced that robots could help with cooking, and the husband and wife were busy people, so they didn't have the time to cook.Bai Yue's cooking is really new.However, it is not a problem for him to completely digest and assimilate the memory of the original body by virtue of his strong mental power.
Shi Chen followed into the kitchen, and Bai Yue was opening the refrigerator and glanced up and down. When he saw him coming in, he asked, "How about eating cherry meat? It just so happens that there is only one piece of pork rib left in the ingredients."
"Okay."
Bai Yue asked Shi Chen to cook the rice, took out the pot himself, poured water into it and boiled it, took out the rib meat and scraped it clean, changed the strips, watched the water boil, poured the meat into the pot and blanched it until it was raw.Cook on high heat for a few minutes, then take out the meat and put it on the chopping board, filter the broth and keep the dregs for later use.The skin of the meat on the chopping board was facing upwards, and when it was cold, Bai Yue took a useful sharp knife and cut it every 1.5cm horizontally and vertically, reaching as deep as the first layer of lean meat, but not cutting it.
"Help me take out the lower casserole." The young man moved skillfully, still commanding in his mouth, "By the way, cut up the casserole for me, and slice the ginger too."
Shi Chen saw it strangely, so he agreed, took out the casserole from the cabinet, and used a bamboo grate as the bottom according to the chef's instructions. Bai Yue put the meat skin side up into the pot, poured milky white broth, scallion knots, ginger slices , cooking wine, refined salt, and red yeast rice water were added in sequence, and a seductive fragrance immediately emerged from the casserole, filling the entire kitchen domineeringly, and piercing into people's noses richly.
Shi Chen couldn't help taking a deep breath, and felt that his stomach, which didn't feel anything at first, began to groan and want to eat.
But Bai Yue put the lid on the pot, turned the heat to medium to simmer the meat first, then opened it halfway and added a few pieces of crystal sugar.
While stewing the meat, Bai Yue smoothly fried a piece of chicken and vegetable heart. He placed the vegetable heart on a plate smoothly and freely, and then easily picked up the iron spoon, poured the glass gorgon on the vegetable, and sprinkled the minced ham .
The original emerald green cabbage heart is poured with gorgon juice, making it more translucent and bright.The faint vegetable fragrance mixed with the meaty fragrance in the kitchen is not very obvious, but it is fresh and pleasant.
The aroma of the meat made Shi Chen's mouth full of saliva secretion. Seeing that a dish was cooked here, he couldn't help but secretly took a chopstick and put it in his mouth. His eyes narrowed subconsciously Get up with a satisfied expression.
The choy sum tastes tender and crisp, and the sweetness of itself is well preserved, and it is also stained with the salty and fresh aroma of ham, refreshing and oily.
This green vegetable is not difficult to make, but sometimes the simpler the dish, the more skillful it is. It is precisely because the vegetable seeks to retain the natural sweetness in the original taste that it is even more important to control the heat, and the seasoning is even more important.
Bai Yue glanced at him sideways: "I worked so hard to cook here, and you secretly ate it?"
"Because it's delicious. I'm not a gourmet either. I don't have a tricky tongue, but I can eat it. It's much better than a robot." Shi Chen smiled and brought the plate aside, while Bai Yue glanced at the time. , Opened the casserole for braised cherry meat, and the white mist suddenly vacated.
At this moment, the soup in the pot has gradually thickened, and the bright red sauce is bubbling in the pot. The meat skin exposed on the soup surface has shown a pleasant cherry red color, and the light is reflected on the smooth surface of the meat skin. , moist and bright.As the viscous sauce surged, a strange and mellow aroma also surged.
Shi Chen, who was still commenting on the chicken and rapeseed heart, immediately couldn't continue to comment. He stared at the casserole, feeling the exuberant liquid in his mouth, and his eyes fully expressed his desire for delicious food.
Bai Yuequan pretended he didn't see it, he used a clean spoon to lightly fill some soup, brought it to his lips and smacked it, and couldn't help but smile, as if he was very satisfied.
"Let me have a taste too?"
Bai Yue shook his head with a smile: "You wait until the dishes are ready and ready to serve." As a result, the man on the opposite side leaned over, his handsome face magnified in front of his eyes, and then the corners of his mouth became hot, and he was caught by something. for a moment.
"It tastes so good." The man sighed with an aftertaste expression, and he didn't know whether he was talking about the gravy or the meat maker.
Bai Yue was stunned, and when he came back to his senses, his ears felt hot, and he was so angry that he elbowed his waist: "Ambush the chef in the kitchen, are you looking for someone to die?"
"Because the dishes made by Ah Yue, as well as yourself, are too delicious." Shi Chen flashed a smile and stopped making trouble with him, "One meat and one vegetable, is that enough?"
"It's not enough for the four of us to eat. Let's make another dish and one soup."
Bai Yue collected the juice for the cherry meat, removed the pot from the heat, picked up the onion and ginger inside with chopsticks, put it on a plate, poured the pot over the meat and poured thick soup.Decorate with some crisp and tender pea shoots, the green onion is lined with the bright red cherry flesh, and the mist has a strong fragrance, which makes people's index fingers move.
Bai Yue found the dried scallops again, washed them, put them into a bowl filled with clean water, and steamed them in a basket.While steaming the scallops, Bai Yue planned to make a soup, but when he checked the refrigerator, there was no more meat, and all the leafy vegetables had been used. Fortunately, there were still mushrooms and loofahs, so he simply took them out and washed them, shredded the mushrooms, and cut the loofahs. Duan, the oil is [-]% hot, put it in and stir fry, drain the oil and put it in the soup pot to cook the soup.
Add a little cooking wine and salt, bring to a boil over high heat, and simmer over low heat.
While the soup was boiling, the scallops were almost steamed.
Bai Yue fried the scallions until they were golden brown, and a scent of scallions rose up all of a sudden.Put shredded bamboo shoots, shredded shiitake mushrooms, and shredded pea sprouts into the pot, stir-fry with fried yellow onions, pour a ladle of clear soup into it, add soy sauce, cooking wine, sugar, refined salt, and cooking wine and bring to a boil.The thick and dense fresh fragrance spreads layer by layer, and then the wet starch is used to coat the thin soup, the soup is moist, and poured on the dried scallops, a dish with a complete color and fragrance is waiting for people to enjoy.
At this moment, the rice has already been cooked, Bai Yue washes his hands and greets Shi Chen to serve the rice, and sees that the soup is almost served, and he goes into the back room to ask his parents to eat.Ke's parents listened to their son's voice outside and looked at each other: "Do you want to eat?"
"No, if you want to eat, you can eat it, I'm so full of gas."
"Then I don't want to eat anymore. Give this damn child some color." Ke Ma got down from the edge of the bed angrily, pulled on her slippers to open the door, and opened her mouth to refuse.
However, as soon as the door was opened, an almost domineering aroma rushed in, rushing into the oral and nasal cavities, spreading along the throat into the chest cavity, stimulating various nerve endings along the way, and before the brain responded Rolling up layers of longing cries, awakening every cell in the body that is waiting to be fed.
"I...well, I'll be right there."
Ke Ma sniffed hard, took the rich aroma from different gourmet seasonings into her nostrils, and swallowed.
Shi Chen definitely couldn't go to the engagement banquet, it would be over as soon as he showed up, so he waited at the place Bai Yue rented.Bai Yue thought about it and thought it was wrong: "Otherwise, I'll open a room, you can live in it, you are here with me, my parents come back to see you, what's the matter?"
In the end, Shi Chen was not happy.
"If I leave now, the impression of being irresponsible and being dumped on the day of the engagement will not be erased from your parents' hearts. We will be together in the future. I don't care what others think of me. Your parents in this life How you look at me is very important."
"Then how are you going to explain it? No matter how you explain it, you can't explain why you didn't divorce early, and you're only regretting it now. My parents are like many parents in this world. They are weak. What you said today, they feel that you Unfilial, I'm sorry Xia Nanyin..."
Shi Chen was also a little worried: "If you can't explain clearly, you have to explain. Make it clear that I am not unfilial, and that I cannot accept that my lifelong happiness is threatened. As for the temporary cancellation of the engagement, I have to sincerely repent. I really can't let go of my family property, so Utilitarian thinking, agreed to get married to get property; but after thinking about it, I feel that personal happiness is more important..."

Bai Yue thought about it, and coughed, "Otherwise, let's say that we have liked each other for a long time..."
"Huh? We didn't know each other before."
"You met when you went to pick up Xia Nanyin with Old Man Xia. You hit it off right away, can't you fall in love again?"
"Okay. What about after that? We both like each other and I promised to get engaged. Isn't that even more scumbag?"
"Listen to me." Bai Yue gently gave him an elbow, "We like each other, but you confessed to me, I think Qi Dafei has too many worries, so he didn't agree.

Because of this, Ke's mother still felt uncomfortable in the car driven by Ke Baiyue: "Why did I make trouble? I care about him! There are so many things, and there is no one close to him, such as housekeepers and nanny, those people Can't he figure out whether it's with him or with his fiancé who ran away? No matter if it's a blood relationship, it can't stop them from being a family living together. "
But whether he agreed to go back to his hometown the next day as originally planned, he didn't know whether he was relieved or discouraged.
Ke's father and Ke's mother left by train, and Bai Yue and Shi Chen immediately packed up their things and drove back.Originally, Ke Baiyue wanted to live in the capital for a while, to accompany Xia Nanyin, and didn't buy a ticket to go with his parents.But Bai Yue didn't intend to waste time here.
The two soon returned to the town where the Ke family lived.
Ke's parents didn't expect their son to come back like this at all, and they were so shocked when they saw Shi Chen that they couldn't even turn their minds. Bai Yue felt uneasy, but he still gritted his teeth and told the story he made up.
The parents were stunned, and Ke's mother clutched her chest with a look of wanting to go away.Papa Ke was panting like a cow, and raised his hands tremblingly: "You bastard! What kind of bastard are you doing? Ah? That's your brother's fiance!"
"Dad, no, I know I didn't think about it, but you also think about it, it's better for Xiaoyin now than after getting married? Don't you think it's better for Xiaoyin to be with someone who doesn't like him at all? Happier?"
"Stop messing around! Is this the same thing?" Mama Ke couldn't help scolding, but she still couldn't help but favor her own children and put the blame on Xia Shichen, "You're out of your mind! But what is Xia Shichen?" It's not a thing, he doesn't like Xiaoyin's blind promises! How can he go back on his promises?"
"Mom, I'm to blame for this! It was my hesitation at the beginning that made Shichen feel disheartened and agreed impulsively."
"Then he can't talk like that to Mr. Xia! Is this the attitude a son should have?"
"Mom, let me ask you, Xiaoyin has found a relative now, do you think he is not our family because of this? Will you say that he has no part in the property distribution?"
"How is it possible! The relationship has been more than ten years, and there is no difference between the biological and the biological... What do you mean by Baiyue? Don't you think of Xiaoyin as your younger brother?"
"I don't mean that. I'm just making an analogy. You see, you and my dad treat my younger brother. This is the real family. What about Mr. Xia? Shi Chen really treats him like a father, but in the end he found that Xia The old man has no feelings for him at all, how can he not lose? Old man Xia told him, if you still want to be my heir, you have to do as I say. Humans are not machines, how can they keep rational? At that time He... Cough, he is depressed after being rejected by me. Seeing that the elders are no longer elders, and even the family relationship will be lost, so he agreed in a moment of confusion? He must be too rash, but you can't completely deny him because of this. Yes or no?"
"In the final analysis, it's for money!" Papa Ke snorted from the sidelines, his nose is not his nose and his eyes are not his eyes, "Why did he agree? Isn't it because he was afraid that Mr. Xia would not let him inherit the property? If it's what you said, it's for the sake of father and son." Love, do you still think about property?"
"Dad, you are wrong to say that. Of course property is not the most important thing, but it can also reflect the problem. You see, some people say that they love you so much, but when it comes to the truth, they don't take it out. Can this be true? Care? You see, my mother just said that it is impossible not to share the property with Xiaoyin, but what about Mr. Xia? He has been raised for so many years, and later he is not in good health. The company is doing its best to take care of it. As a result, Xia When the old man finds his biological offspring, he is not willing to give him his property right away - if he wants to give it, the condition is that Shi Chen must gamble on his life's happiness. Do you think this is raising a son? If Shi Chen really cared about money so much, he wouldn't say that he gave up on the Xia family The identity has been cancelled, and the engagement is over."
"..."
The three of them started arguing at the door, and Shi Chen wanted to interrupt several times, but Ke's parents ignored him, treating him as air.He touched his nose with a wry smile: "Uncle and aunt, the neighbors are watching."
Mama Ke glanced at it, and sure enough, there were people poking around on the third floor of her commercial and residential building.She gasped for breath, dragged Ke Pa and Ke Baiyue into the house, and immediately wanted to close the door. Shi Chen blocked the door frame with a gentlemanly smile that appealed to middle-aged women, forcing her to let them go. came in.
The battlefield of the three members of the Ke family moved to the living room.Ke's father and mother were so angry that Bai Yue didn't dare to quarrel, but he tried his best to defend himself. In the end, the three of them were tired. Ke's father and mother gradually couldn't argue with each other, so they slammed the door and went into the back room angrily. , In the end, he didn't say a word to Shi Chen.
In fact, it's not that they didn't see that Old Man Xia was the most flawed and had a problem with Shi Chen's attitude, but parents can't help but think about it from the perspective of their parents. I don't care who is right, I feel that Old Man Xia is pitiful.And they love Xia Nanyin, Xia Nanyin lost her, so of course they couldn't help but blame Xia Shichen.
In the end, after making a fuss for a long time, there was actually something about his own son here?
Knowing that the cancellation of the engagement had a lot to do with Ke Baiyue, it would be hard to justify accusations—you blame Xia Shichen?Then who made Xia Shichen make up his mind to call off the engagement?Isn't it Ke Baiyue? !
The two voices in the two of them were fighting. On the one hand, they said that Xia Shichen was not filial and reckless, but on the other hand, they subconsciously followed Ke Baiyue's words, thinking that this child is also unlucky and pitiful, and his adoptive father raised him. , is someone who looks after the family property and protects the relatives and grandchildren.These two sides have their own reasons, but in the final analysis, they have different positions, which made their thoughts messed up and they couldn't make up their minds.
"What's the matter?" Shi Chen asked Bai Yue in the living room.
"It's a good thing you didn't beat me up. The timing of the two of us coming here... I can't explain why I regretted it at the engagement wedding. What can I do other than admitting it? Take your time—you are in my hometown now, separated from Xia Nanyin It should be much better. I'll change their minds by subtle influence." Bai Yue let out a sigh of relief, "Okay, don't worry about things for now, it's time to make dinner."
Watching Bai Yue roll up his sleeves and enter the kitchen, Shi Chen raised his eyebrows amusedly.At that time, technology was so advanced that robots could help with cooking, and the husband and wife were busy people, so they didn't have the time to cook.Bai Yue's cooking is really new.However, it is not a problem for him to completely digest and assimilate the memory of the original body by virtue of his strong mental power.
Shi Chen followed into the kitchen, and Bai Yue was opening the refrigerator and glanced up and down. When he saw him coming in, he asked, "How about eating cherry meat? It just so happens that there is only one piece of pork rib left in the ingredients."
"Okay."
Bai Yue asked Shi Chen to cook the rice, took out the pot himself, poured water into it and boiled it, took out the rib meat and scraped it clean, changed the strips, watched the water boil, poured the meat into the pot and blanched it until it was raw.Cook on high heat for a few minutes, then take out the meat and put it on the chopping board, filter the broth and keep the dregs for later use.The skin of the meat on the chopping board was facing upwards, and when it was cold, Bai Yue took a useful sharp knife and cut it every 1.5cm horizontally and vertically, reaching as deep as the first layer of lean meat, but not cutting it.
"Help me take out the lower casserole." The young man moved skillfully, still commanding in his mouth, "By the way, cut up the casserole for me, and slice the ginger too."
Shi Chen saw it strangely, so he agreed, took out the casserole from the cabinet, and used a bamboo grate as the bottom according to the chef's instructions. Bai Yue put the meat skin side up into the pot, poured milky white broth, scallion knots, ginger slices , cooking wine, refined salt, and red yeast rice water were added in sequence, and a seductive fragrance immediately emerged from the casserole, filling the entire kitchen domineeringly, and piercing into people's noses richly.
Shi Chen couldn't help taking a deep breath, and felt that his stomach, which didn't feel anything at first, began to groan and want to eat.
But Bai Yue put the lid on the pot, turned the heat to medium to simmer the meat first, then opened it halfway and added a few pieces of crystal sugar.
While stewing the meat, Bai Yue smoothly fried a piece of chicken and vegetable heart. He placed the vegetable heart on a plate smoothly and freely, and then easily picked up the iron spoon, poured the glass gorgon on the vegetable, and sprinkled the minced ham .
The original emerald green cabbage heart is poured with gorgon juice, making it more translucent and bright.The faint vegetable fragrance mixed with the meaty fragrance in the kitchen is not very obvious, but it is fresh and pleasant.
The aroma of the meat made Shi Chen's mouth full of saliva secretion. Seeing that a dish was cooked here, he couldn't help but secretly took a chopstick and put it in his mouth. His eyes narrowed subconsciously Get up with a satisfied expression.
The choy sum tastes tender and crisp, and the sweetness of itself is well preserved, and it is also stained with the salty and fresh aroma of ham, refreshing and oily.
This green vegetable is not difficult to make, but sometimes the simpler the dish, the more skillful it is. It is precisely because the vegetable seeks to retain the natural sweetness in the original taste that it is even more important to control the heat, and the seasoning is even more important.
Bai Yue glanced at him sideways: "I worked so hard to cook here, and you secretly ate it?"
"Because it's delicious. I'm not a gourmet either. I don't have a tricky tongue, but I can eat it. It's much better than a robot." Shi Chen smiled and brought the plate aside, while Bai Yue glanced at the time. , Opened the casserole for braised cherry meat, and the white mist suddenly vacated.
At this moment, the soup in the pot has gradually thickened, and the bright red sauce is bubbling in the pot. The meat skin exposed on the soup surface has shown a pleasant cherry red color, and the light is reflected on the smooth surface of the meat skin. , moist and bright.As the viscous sauce surged, a strange and mellow aroma also surged.
Shi Chen, who was still commenting on the chicken and rapeseed heart, immediately couldn't continue to comment. He stared at the casserole, feeling the exuberant liquid in his mouth, and his eyes fully expressed his desire for delicious food.
Bai Yuequan pretended he didn't see it, he used a clean spoon to lightly fill some soup, brought it to his lips and smacked it, and couldn't help but smile, as if he was very satisfied.
"Let me have a taste too?"
Bai Yue shook his head with a smile: "You wait until the dishes are ready and ready to serve." As a result, the man on the opposite side leaned over, his handsome face magnified in front of his eyes, and then the corners of his mouth became hot, and he was caught by something. for a moment.
"It tastes so good." The man sighed with an aftertaste expression, and he didn't know whether he was talking about the gravy or the meat maker.
Bai Yue was stunned, and when he came back to his senses, his ears felt hot, and he was so angry that he elbowed his waist: "Ambush the chef in the kitchen, are you looking for someone to die?"
"Because the dishes made by Ah Yue, as well as yourself, are too delicious." Shi Chen flashed a smile and stopped making trouble with him, "One meat and one vegetable, is that enough?"
"It's not enough for the four of us to eat. Let's make another dish and one soup."
Bai Yue collected the juice for the cherry meat, removed the pot from the heat, picked up the onion and ginger inside with chopsticks, put it on a plate, poured the pot over the meat and poured thick soup.Decorate with some crisp and tender pea shoots, the green onion is lined with the bright red cherry flesh, and the mist has a strong fragrance, which makes people's index fingers move.
Bai Yue found the dried scallops again, washed them, put them into a bowl filled with clean water, and steamed them in a basket.While steaming the scallops, Bai Yue planned to make a soup, but when he checked the refrigerator, there was no more meat, and all the leafy vegetables had been used. Fortunately, there were still mushrooms and loofahs, so he simply took them out and washed them, shredded the mushrooms, and cut the loofahs. Duan, the oil is [-]% hot, put it in and stir fry, drain the oil and put it in the soup pot to cook the soup.
Add a little cooking wine and salt, bring to a boil over high heat, and simmer over low heat.
While the soup was boiling, the scallops were almost steamed.
Bai Yue fried the scallions until they were golden brown, and a scent of scallions rose up all of a sudden.Put shredded bamboo shoots, shredded shiitake mushrooms, and shredded pea sprouts into the pot, stir-fry with fried yellow onions, pour a ladle of clear soup into it, add soy sauce, cooking wine, sugar, refined salt, and cooking wine and bring to a boil.The thick and dense fresh fragrance spreads layer by layer, and then the wet starch is used to coat the thin soup, the soup is moist, and poured on the dried scallops, a dish with a complete color and fragrance is waiting for people to enjoy.
At this moment, the rice has already been cooked, Bai Yue washes his hands and greets Shi Chen to serve the rice, and sees that the soup is almost served, and he goes into the back room to ask his parents to eat.Ke's parents listened to their son's voice outside and looked at each other: "Do you want to eat?"
"No, if you want to eat, you can eat it, I'm so full of gas."
"Then I don't want to eat anymore. Give this damn child some color." Ke Ma got down from the edge of the bed angrily, pulled on her slippers to open the door, and opened her mouth to refuse.
However, as soon as the door was opened, an almost domineering aroma rushed in, rushing into the oral and nasal cavities, spreading along the throat into the chest cavity, stimulating various nerve endings along the way, and before the brain responded Rolling up layers of longing cries, awakening every cell in the body that is waiting to be fed.
"I...well, I'll be right there."
Ke Ma sniffed hard, took the rich aroma from different gourmet seasonings into her nostrils, and swallowed.
