Cooking

Shenyuan, Beiwan.

Lu You slumped on the sofa melancholy, his eyes dull.

I just leaned against the wall and measured my height with a tape measure. It was 156cm, the real data.

Lu You shouted: "Can you come up with a system? I want a growth potion."

For a long time, no old man appeared around, and no mechanical or natural AI sounds sounded. The system was declared bankrupt.

So I could only cheer myself up silently: "It's okay. My parents' altitude is not bad, and there's nothing wrong with my genes. And I can still grow in high school. Yes, I definitely need to grow taller."

While Lu You was laying it out, there was a strange sound coming from downstairs, as if someone was scratching the glass.

"Oh shit! I forgot to let the cat out."

Lu You quickly went downstairs, came to the cat room, and opened the glass cabinet door.

As soon as the door opened, Xiaobao rushed out and gathered around his feet, meowing and spinning in circles.

"Okay, okay, I know you are hungry. Let's eat some snacks to satisfy your stomach first, and then eat meat at noon."

With that said, Lu You took a pack of freeze-dried food from the side, then picked up the snack with one hand and walked towards the first floor.

…

Just when Lu You was getting excited, the vx phone rang. Just click to connect and turn on the speaker.

"I'm here, come out and open the door!"

Then the call was hung up.

Lu You touched Xiaobao's head and said, "That's it for snacks. I'll open the door first."

A minute later, Lu You and Li Yu walked into the living room.

Li Yu complained: "With this damn weather, I'm not even 100 meters away from your house, and I'm already sweating."

Lu You took out a can of Feizhai water from the small freezer on the side and threw it to him, saying, "It's 35℃, coupled with the fierce sun, it's like this."

Li Yu took two sips of Coke, let out a sigh of relief, and fell down on the sofa.

"Your home is more comfortable, with air conditioning, water, and kittens."

"In addition to Xiaofan, doesn't your family also have other things?"

"Forget it!" Li Yu curled his lips and said disdainfully: "My dad won't go to work today. It's annoying to see him even once."

Lu You smiled. He knew about Li Yu's family affairs and the relationship between father and son was very bad, but it was not good for him to interfere in other people's family affairs.

He sat down on the sofa, and Xiao Bao quietly crawled over, lay on his lap, and rubbed his hand with his little head.

"Tell me, what do you want from me today?" Lu You asked while stroking the soft fur on Xiao Bao's back.

"The results of the high school entrance examination will be released today, are you sure about it?"

"What do you think?"

"I think..." Li Yu thought for a moment and then said, "How about I go work at your construction site in the future?"

Lu You glanced at him and said, "If you live in a villa, you still have to do ashes, right?"

"It's not impossible." Li Yu straightened up and analyzed seriously: "With your grades, you will definitely not be able to go to high school. It's better to go to the construction site to support yourself than to wait for death, right?"

"Are you here to hurt me or to persuade me?"

"Then what are your plans in the future?" Li Yu's tone became serious.

After the words fell, the living room became a little quiet, only the "buzzing" sound of the air conditioner cooling fan was circulating.

After a while, Lu You's voice sounded.

"I'll discuss my plans later. Let's talk about yours first. Based on your usual grades, you can get into two good high schools in the city."

"Well, I should go to Chunhua to attend high school."

"That's right." Lu You thought of the high school information he checked online and said, "In the past two years, Chunhua's teachers and hardware have improved, gradually surpassing those in the city, and your dad has many acquaintances in Chunhua. , he will also ask you to go to Chunhua."

"That's it for me. What about you?"

Lu You did not respond directly, but just said: "Chunhua is a private school. And my dad also has acquaintances there."

Li Yu understood his plan now, but thinking of Lu You's father's education method, he asked a little worriedly: "How did you tell your father?"

"Speak directly, there is no need to beat around the bush."

"According to your father's character, if your grades in high school were so bad, he should take you home immediately, right?"

"Nine times out of ten." Lu You was not very worried about his high school grades. How could a Ph.D. in mathematics from one of the world's top universities fail to learn high school courses?

But seeing Li Yu's slightly worried expression, he could only say with relief: "Don't worry, it's okay. It's just a high school course, and there's nothing I can't do that I want to do. I asked my dad to find a tutor for tutoring in August, and he also With the help of a college tyrant like you, I should be able to get average grades by then."

Naturally, Lu You wouldn't say which grade he was in the exam for, because Li Yu couldn't believe it. If you tell him that he can reach the top ranking of a key high school in just a few months, it is like saying that Kunkun can play in the NBA and Li Yifeng has not broken the law.

"Okay then, if you have any questions, please contact me."

After hearing what Lu You said, Li Yu stopped asking any more questions. As brothers, in his heart, he had to understand and support what he wanted to do.

"I won't be polite to you."

"Would you like to play Apex for a while? I've been watching Sniper God's live broadcast recently, and I've learned a lot."

Li Yu was eager to try.

Lu You looked up and looked at the time. It was just a few minutes past ten o'clock.

"Let's fight again in the afternoon. Now we have to prepare for cooking."

"Ah?" Li Yu also glanced at the wall clock on the wall and asked doubtfully: "It's only ten o'clock, are you ordering takeout so early?"

Lu You:(￢_￢)

"I didn't say I wanted takeout, did I?"

"Then you still talk about eating?"

"Oh." Lu You sighed and repeated word for word: "I said, I'm going to get ready to cook."

The two looked at each other, and the scene fell into silence.

"Hahaha, that's a funny joke. Stop teasing me and go turn on the computer. My hands are itchy."

"Hit yourself if you like."

Lu You put the snack on the ground, stood up and walked into the kitchen, then put on an apron and took out the ingredients from the plastic bag.

"Holy shit!"

Li Yu saw that he was really cooking and quickly ran to him to watch.

"Are you kidding? Do you really know how to make it? Can it be eaten?"

Lu You didn't want to pay attention to him and said, "You can see for yourself and don't ask so many questions."

The three dishes for lunch today are beef brisket stewed with radish, pan-fried tofu, and fermented fermented macaroni.

Take out a stainless steel pot and clean it with dish soap first. After all, the original person couldn't cook. This thing hadn't been used for a while, and it had accumulated a thin layer of dust.

Lu You cleaned the pot, filled it with two-thirds of the water, put the pot on the gas stove, then skillfully cut the beef brisket in half, put the brisket and beef into the pot under cold water, lit the fire, and then added the ginger. Slice green onions, add cooking wine, and wait for the water to boil. One set of operations will work smoothly.

Li Yu looked on in shock.

…

After finishing blanching the brisket and beef, and also mixing the ingredients for pan-fried tofu, Lu You took out the chopping board, put the brisket and beef on which the blood had faded, picked up a kitchen knife and cut them into small pieces.

Li Yu's eyes were not only shocked but also shocked.

md, he seems to really know how to cook.

He finally couldn't help it anymore and asked, "When did you learn how to do it?"

"Innate soul skills are born with you."

"Why did I always eat takeout when I came to your house before?" Li Yu felt that she had been cheated.

"I'm afraid if I make it too delicious, you'll fall in love with me."

"Then why did you do it today?"

"I've been eating takeout for many days in a row and I can't stand it anymore."

"Aren't you afraid that I will fall in love with you?"

Lu You stopped what he was doing, slowly turned around, and said seriously: "Although I'm not Nantong, if you are sincere, I can barely accept it because of our several years of friendship."

Li Yu lived in Bengbu.

"Nm! You'd better not cook dark cuisine!"

After speaking, he turned and left.

"Call me before dinner, and I'll go play VR for a while."

"Try not to put glue on the sofa, it smells."

"I'll fight nm! I'll drive!"

Lu You continued with the next steps: add oil and spices such as five-spice leaves and star anise, stir-fry until fragrant, add brisket and beef, fry until the surface turns slightly yellow, add some cooking wine, after the cooking wine is dry, put all the ingredients in the pot Transfer to the smart pressure cooker, add water, cover, click on the beef function, and set the timer for 30 minutes.

Li Yu was in the living room on the first floor, bringing Lu You's VR game equipment, transforming into Gundam form and preparing to attack.

"How about ordering some private dishes now?"

He still doesn't believe it. He hasn't seen her for two days. A person who has never touched Yang Chunsui has directly become someone who can go out of the hall and enter the kitchen. It's just nonsense.

…

On the other side, Yijing Community.

"Get out of here! You're really not helping." A roar came from the kitchen.

Tang Wan ran out of the kitchen as if he was running away and muttered in a low voice: "You asked me to help again, and you still asked for so many ghosts."

As soon as he came out, he happened to see his brother, Tang Jing, sitting on the sofa in the living room, holding his mobile phone and tapping the screen quickly with his fingertips, as if he was chatting with someone.

Logan walked quietly behind him, stuck out half of his head, and asked in a low voice: "Are you chatting with your girlfriend?"

Tang Jing knew it was his sister, so he glanced at her and said, "Do you think your brother will have this time?"

Logan thought that although his brother was quite handsome, he was busy studying, so it was really impossible to find a girlfriend.

Neither of their siblings are particularly smart or talented people. They just focus more on their studies and spend more time than other classmates. Fortunately, their results are worthy of their efforts.

"I plan to be a tutor. While I haven't forgotten the knowledge now, I should be able to teach some students who are about to be in the first year of high school. The main reason is to earn some money on my own, and with the money given by my father and other relatives, I can buy better computers and mobile phones. ."

Logan didn't quite understand why he wanted to work.

"Aren't there some companies over at the school that offer scholarships to you? It should be worth tens to tens of thousands. Do you still need to work?"

Tang Jing explained: "Let's keep those scholarships for college tuition and living expenses. And the summer is so long, it's good to find a job to earn some money."

"Then find and talk to me."

After saying that, Tang Wan walked back to her room, and Tang Jing continued to do her own thing on vx.
