Chapter 126 Reading more than 10,000 volumes
"Dong dong dong..." The kitchen knife cut quickly on the chopping board, cutting a piece of beef into thin slices against the grain.
Yang Hui opened her mouth at the door of the kitchen, dumbfounded.
"Wow!" As the beef is put into the pot, white smoke comes out, and the aroma fills the air.
"Mom! It smells so good. What are you cooking for lunch?" Meng Qingqing, the glutton, came to the kitchen smelling the smell.
Then, there was a "wooden chicken" at the door.
“What are you doing at the door?” Lao Meng came over with a cigarette in his mouth.
"Wooden Chicken" +1.
The three of them stared at the back of the man shaking his spoon with wide eyes, feeling strange.
“This is my brother?”
"This is my son?"
Meng Qingqing and Lao Meng looked at each other.
Turn on the fire and add fuel.
"Boom!" The flame is burning in the pot, stir-fry to collect the juice, and start the pot!
Meng Lang turned his head, looked at the stunned three people at the door, and grinned.
"How about it? Being single can help you train yourself, right?"
"Brother! It's true that you can be single and train yourself, but your change...how many years have you been single?"
Uh...this This guy's intuition is truly beast-level...
Meng Lang chuckled.
“Don’t be surprised, I just want you to be mentally prepared. Slowly, you will be able to see what it means to be reborn!”
Show a little today, show a little tomorrow, so that in a few months, I suddenly become a special chef, and your jaws will be shocked on the spot.
"Mom, at my current level, do you still have to worry that I won't be able to eat hot food outside?"
"Well! You really don't have to worry... This child is about to be You have to suffer a lot to become a chef!
By the way! Then I have to bring you more wild mushrooms and Honghu lotus seeds, and make more soup to replenish your health.”
Meng Lang was dumbfounded. Is this the point?
Seeing that the luggage bag was growing in size again, I felt helpless.
This is really not letting go of every opportunity to increase the weight on yourself.
“Dad, what kind of stimulation do you think my brother received?
Not only did he exercise every day these past two days, but he actually learned how to cook.
You don’t know, I took a sneak peek last night, and the guy was actually typing code in the room, with garbled code that I couldn’t understand at all.
It's like having a convulsion!
I think he is quite rich now. If he still works hard like this, does he still want to be Bill Gates? "
"Hmm... He loves to exercise, he has learned cooking skills, and he works so hard... Do you think this brat is out of love? "Lao Meng touched his chin and whispered.
The reasons why young people are dumped nowadays are just the same, bad figure, bad housework, bad work...
Meng Lang is now The performance is completely consistent with the "broken love syndrome"
"emm... Compared to falling out of love, I was more surprised that he was in love." Meng Qingqing also touched her chin.
Lao Meng glared at her when he heard this, "Are you still qualified to say this now? According to this trend, your brother is getting married for the second time, and your boyfriend is still lost!
A Every girl has nothing Yes, if you run really fast when I beat you, you can’t imitate your brother!"
"I..."
Looking at Lao Meng’s expression of hatred. Meng Qingqing looked confused as she walked away.
Aren't you talking about my brother? Why did it suddenly get involved with me?
Growing up, I heard a lot about "other people's children", but never once was Meng Lang used as an example.
In the past, the eldest brother, not to mention the second sister, was the "lower limit" in the words of his parents. Relatively speaking, Meng Lang, as the male of the family, attracted more firepower.
Everyone shares the pressure and supports each other, and life can still be lived.
It’s better this time, “other people’s children” have become “my own children”.
Not to mention the ones who helped share the firepower. In the past, they were comparing each other from a distance, but now they are just blaming each other in their faces.
Without contrast, there is no harm, but with close comparison, the harm is even greater!
What is going on in this world?
We are born from the same roots, so why be so hasty in taking photos, brother!
“Brother, don’t you always say, ‘A gentleman is far away from the kitchen’?” Meng Qingqing looked unable to accept it.
"A gentleman is like an animal. Seeing its life, he can't bear to see its death. Hearing its sound, he can't bear to eat its meat. Therefore, a gentleman stays away from the cook.
The cook is not the key point in this sentence, the key point is the compassion. Heart."
"Bang!" Meng Lang knocked out a big fat fish.
"I didn't understand before, but now I understand. As long as you eat them with a grateful heart, I believe they can understand."
Meng Qingqing glanced at the chopping board fish on.
"Then you can't move your compassion. Do you know that your actions have seriously threatened your little sister's living environment?"
"I have been hiding for twenty-four years. , But there is no way, a cool man like me can never hide his excellence."
Meng Qingqing rolled her eyes, "It's said that now. Involution is popular in big cities, brother! The atmosphere in the family will be ruined by you."
"Haha! People can't hide in the greenhouse all the time. Involution is a new step in socialism. It’s a necessary stage of the times.
But since you are my little sister, I can teach you some unique tips.”
"What do you think?"
"Read more than ten thousand volumes!"
"Tah! It's a cliché!" Meng Qingqing curled her lips.
"Alas! I used to feel the same way as you, until one day I was addicted to reading..." Meng Lang's eyes were slightly sad.
Meng Qingqing obviously did not understand the "sincerity" in this sentence. She couldn't help but be surprised when she saw that Meng Lang made a steamed fish and actually wanted to use the knife again.
"You're not giving me a chance to survive! There are so many dishes, why are you still cooking?"
"Well, if we cook two more dishes, we might have customers later."
< br>"It's already this point, how could there be still..." Meng Qingqing hadn't finished speaking yet.
"Second brother! Younger brother and sister! The old man and I are here to visit!"
A familiar voice suddenly came from the door of the yard.
Meng Qingqing looked at Meng Lang in shock.
I saw him calmly taking off his apron, holding two plates of dishes in his hands and walking out, but his voice came slowly.
"Don't ask, just ask that Fu has distant relatives in the mountains..."
...
"Dad! Brother, why did you come here suddenly without saying anything in advance? , you see we are not prepared for this.”
Meng Lang's uncle was named Meng Li. He had a Chinese character for his face and looked somewhat similar to Lao Meng. He wore a suit, leather shoes, and a leather bag, and looked like a businessman.
He looked at the dishes on the table and smiled immediately.
"Isn't this what you call unprepared? Then prepare yourself, why don't we have to eat the Manchu-Han Banquet?
Brothers and sisters, your food is usually good enough. We came at the right time. , caught up! You think so, Dad! "
Meng Lang's grandfather has neatly cut hair and looks energetic and bookish.
The old man looked at the dishes on the table, including spicy and sour potato shreds, Dongpo pork, steamed Wuchang fish, ground three delicacies, and fried beef with green onions. There must be seven or eight dishes. The aroma was overwhelming, and he nodded with a smile.
"Well! The second child's life seems to be going well."
Yang Hui also smiled, "It's not that Xiaolang is leaving today. It's not good to eat outside, so let the child Eat more at home.”
< br>"Then it really comes sooner rather than later. Xiaolang came back to pay homage to his ancestors. The company was too busy in the past two days, and the old man suffered from rheumatism again.
There is nothing to do with this busy schedule. Take care.”
"Dad, you have rheumatism again?" Lao Meng quickly asked with concern.
"It's an old problem. It's okay. At this age, I don't have a few good days." The old man waved his hand.
"Grandpa, please don't talk nonsense. Looking at your complexion, I don't think there is any problem in living to be a hundred years old." Meng Lang said.
"Haha! Xiaolang, you kid."
"Brother, please take care of me. If the family is too busy, please let me know and we will take the old man to live in the countryside for a while." Yang Hui said.
"No, no, no, I'm used to living in the old man's house. Let's eat quickly. The food will be cold in a while.
But this food is enough. How can we have food without wine? Dad, it's a rare day today. Let's drink two cups. ?" Meng Li said suddenly.
"Okay! Qingqing, go buy two bottles of wine and come back." Lao Meng nodded.
"No, no, no, I brought two bottles of Maotai and I'll drink it today." Meng Li took out a bottle of Feitian from his bag.
The old man and Lao Meng looked at him in surprise.
Iron Rooster also plucked its feathers today?
Everyone started to move their chopsticks, and the uncle took a bite of the Dongpo pork on the table. As soon as he took it into his mouth, he felt the taste of spices filling his mouth.
After one bite, the seemingly fatty pork belly is unexpectedly soft, chewy and crunchy with a hint of chewiness.
"Huh? It's delicious! Sister and brother, I haven't seen you for a few days. Your cooking skills have improved a lot!
It's not like my family. We hired a nanny and now we even cook oil, salt, sauce and vinegar. I can’t tell the difference!”
Meng Lang glanced at his uncle.
Lao Meng’s usual evaluation of his uncle as “always showing off” is not groundless.
The expressions of several people present were a little strange, and Meng Qingqing looked like he couldn't help but laugh.
"Mom! Look, my brother's craftsmanship is now much better than his predecessor."
"Huh?" Meng Li and the old man were stunned for a moment.
"Dad, Meng Lang cooked these dishes." Yang Hui looked quite proud.
The two men immediately looked at Meng Lang in surprise.
The old man took a few bites of the food, then looked Meng Lang up and down, with a hint of a smile in his eyes.
"Well! Xiaolang has changed a lot in the past two years, and he has become much more mature."
"This is all because grandpa taught him well since childhood." Meng Lang smiled and gave his grandpa a fish with chopsticks. .
"Grandpa, please eat the vegetables. This fish is fresh."
When Meng Lang was a child, his parents were too busy, so his grandparents took care of him for a while. His children's enlightenment was also brought out by the old man.
He later chose the Chinese Department, which had something to do with the old man’s teachings.
"Hey! Xiaolang did it? I really didn't see it." Meng Li was also very surprised.
“Your cousin’s fingers are not wet, and the next dumpling is full of flavor. Xiaolang knows how to honor his parents by cooking, so he will only give us Emma-style gifts.
Or how about Bei Piao, Shanghai Piao, Guang Piao, and Deep Piao? Everyone who comes out of the drift is a talented person. It’s not easy to be alone outside, right?
But didn’t I hear that you were doing insurance before? Is this a career change? "
Lao Meng: "#"
Yang Hui: "#"
Meng Qingqing: "#"
Meng Lang sighed.
He finally understood why the brother in the previous episode couldn't help it... (End of Chapter)
