Yunding Ranch

Chapter 155 Family Breakfast
Lu Huaijin rode his horse all the way, and finally stopped at the door of the main house. Looking back at Lu Li who was following behind, he laughed heartily, and said bluntly, "You lost."

Lu Li just felt a tightness in his chest - he obviously made Lu Huaijin intentional. Fred fell off a horse before. Lu Huaijin seemed to have tight muscles when he was riding the horse the day before yesterday. He was naturally more worried, but he didn't expect that Lu Huaijin He didn't accelerate blindly, but controlled the speed well, and ran back smoothly all the way.Before Lu Li could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard Lu Huaijin's childish words.

Reluctantly twitching the corners of his mouth, Lu Li willingly lowered his head and gave his father applause. Seeing a smile creep up on Lu Huaijin's brow, Lu Li's mood also lightened up, and his face couldn't help but follow. smile.

"When accelerating, the body leans forward slightly, and the center of gravity will be better controlled. If it is too bumpy, support your feet hard and let your hips leave the saddle, so that the ride will be more stable..."

Lu Li was teaching Lu Huaijin some horse riding skills. Although he was not a good player, he had been on horseback for at least three months, and he still knew more than Lu Huaijin.After the two men took the horse back to the stable, they walked and chatted all the way, and returned to the main house. After opening the door and entering, Song Lingyi's familiar voice came from inside, "What are you two father and son doing? You are sweating profusely. Yes, the weather is still a bit cold today, be careful of catching a cold and go to the bathroom to take a shower."

In a daze, Lu Li had an illusion, as if he had returned to the home in his hometown, and he could hear his mother's nagging when he opened the door. The aroma of food wafted in the air, and that familiar smell could always relax his muscles. , the faint warmth flowing in the heart makes people linger.

Just for a moment, after raising his head, the landscape in front of him was completely different from his hometown, reminding Lu Li that this is the United States, Texas, and Yunding Ranch; Song Lingyi was busy in the kitchen wearing an apron, with a black hair The hair was tied up into a simple bun and tied with a hairpin. He welcomed Lu Li back with a faint smile, and told Lu Li that this was his second home.

"We went horseback riding just now." Lu Huaijin said simply, this explanation made Song Lingyi laugh, "Yes, it's good to exercise in the morning." Her voice was already hoarse, so her voice was softer than yesterday, but her eyebrows The mental state between the two is very good, and people can clearly feel her good mood.

"Mom, what did you prepare for breakfast?" Lu Li could smell the sweet smell of rice in the air - of course it wasn't rice, but porridge.Cooking porridge is a very time-consuming task, and it can't be done without one or two hours. Only Song Lingyi can spend so much energy slowly cooking porridge on a low fire, hoping that breakfast can have enough nutrition.

This reminded Lu Li of his high school days.

"I just rummaged through your cupboard and found a bag of scallops, and made a scallop porridge." Song Lingyi continued to busy with the work in hand, and said simply, "Don't eat too greasy in the morning, so I didn't put lean meat in. Next time you buy some sweet potatoes, it would be good to make sweet potato porridge in the morning." Speaking of this, Song Lingyi suddenly remembered, "Don't you have corn in your organic farm? You can also grow some sweet potatoes, sweet potatoes are more nutritious than potatoes If there are too many, it will also nourish the stomach."

"Okay, I'll talk to Randy later." Lu Li stood at the door of the kitchen, poked his head around for a while, pinched the mustard on the plate with his fingers, and threw it into his mouth. I bought it from the supermarket, but I have never made porridge, so I have no chance to taste it.

Song Lingyi glanced at her son helplessly, "How old are you, you don't even know you wash your hands before eating." She raised her hand and patted the back of Lu Li's hand, "Go take a shower, you're covered in sweat."

Lu Li grinned and withdrew his right hand, "Okay, I'll go now." As he spoke, he turned his head, but he only took two steps. Taking advantage of Song Lingyi's inattention, he turned around and threw two peanuts into his mouth. Song Lingyi discovered it, and before she got angry, Lu Li hurriedly ran all the way upstairs, shouting, "Take a shower, take a shower!"

Song Lingyi looked at her son's back, showed a helpless smile, shook her head, and then got busy again.

Pushing open the door of the room, Lu Li saw Bucky curled up on the bed. This little guy seemed to have recognized the chassis, and he was unwilling to move his position every day when he slept. Before, he thought it was because of him, but now it seems that it was all because of him. The reason for this geomantic omen.

Noticing that Lu Li entered the room, Bucky opened his eyes and glanced at him with the same disdainful look as before, then adjusted his posture and closed his eyes again.

Seeing Bucky's appearance, Lu Li deliberately walked over, grabbed his two front paws, and lifted Bucky up high. Bucky let out a dissatisfied "meow", as if protesting that Lu Li disturbed him. Lu Li ignored Bucky's complaints again, turned around a few times, and then put Bucky down. The little guy opened his mouth wide and "meowed" at Lu Li, strongly protesting Lu Li's mischievous behavior. Then he ran away in a hurry.

Satisfied, Lu Li picked up the towel and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

Taking a shower is just to wash off the sweat on your body to avoid catching a cold, but it will be resolved in a few minutes.Wiping her hair, she went downstairs to the hall. The hall was bustling with people looking for breakfast. Song Lingyi's voice was already hoarse, so she couldn't speak loudly. Instead, Jessica's refreshing voice, "Everyone do it yourself, do it yourself! Hurry up and finish your breakfast, hurry up and get out, the house will be bursting."

"What's our breakfast?" Randy's bluffing voice was particularly ear-piercing, coming out of a bunch of noise, which immediately aroused everyone's response, "Yes, yes, what is breakfast? I Saw that thing, what was it?"

"Breakfast is on the dining table, your breakfast is there, not here." Jessica kept shouting, but everyone didn't listen, they still gathered around the kitchen door, reluctant to leave.

Lu Li also came to the kitchen, pushed aside the crowd, and shouted, "Hey, hey, guys, my mom has a bad throat today, can't you be nice?"

Everyone's attention was diverted, Randy raised his right hand high, like a good student in class, and said loudly, "But, why did Ms. L prepare two different breakfasts? Look, there are two different breakfasts on the dining table. The ones here are different from the ones here, is there any difference in treatment?"

"Uh, wait." Lu Li looked back, looked again, and then cast a puzzled look at Song Lingyi. Song Lingyi simply explained in Chinese, and Lu Li suddenly realized, "My mother thinks that you may eat Not used to Chinese breakfast. You see, this is porridge, which is... uh, boiled rice, this explanation is not very reliable, but I know, you will not like it."

In Chinese restaurants in the United States, it is indeed possible to order congee, but this cooking method is really not the type that Americans like, and almost no one is willing to try it.On the one hand, the taste of porridge is too soft, on the other hand, the taste is too light, and on the other hand, it is not easy to fill the stomach.Not to mention Americans, even many Chinese may not like porridge.

Song Lingyi made porridge for Lu Huaijin and Lu Li's consideration; but she was worried that other people in the ranch would not be used to eating it, so she made fried eggs, pancakes and grilled sausages.The pancake building, which stacks up like a skyscraper, is enough to meet the breakfast needs of other people on the ranch; if it is not enough, there is milk and cereal.

"Really?" Hearing Lu Li's description, everyone hesitated.Although it is said that Lu Li's cooking is very popular, in fact, there are indeed many dishes that are not their favorite type. It seems that every time they cook soup, they don't resist, but they are not fanatical.Now, the same seems to be true of the mysterious pot of food in front of me.

However, there was a strong aroma floating in the air, which made people salivate uncontrollably, which really made people want to move.

"Maybe we won't like it, but at least give us a chance to try, right?" Randy finally said, "It's like fish. We thought we wouldn't like it, but in the end?"

Lu Li laughed dumbfounded, nodded in affirmation, "Well, if you want to try, I can't stop it. But trust me, you won't like it." From every point of view, porridge is not something they would like type.

The conversation just now was a little fast, Song Lingyi understood most of it, but there are still some details that are not sure, Lu Li explained to her, "They want to give it a try, I warned them." This made Song Lingyi laugh, "Don't worry Well, you just leave a copy for Dad and yourself, don’t worry about me, make a copy for them to try.”

Song Lingyi wiped her hands on the apron, skillfully made a bowl of porridge from the pot, put it on the stove next to it, and said friendlyly, "Be careful."

Everyone looked at each other in dismay, and then they all raised their right hands at the same time, expressing that they wanted to try it out, which made Lu Li dumbfounded, "Guys, don't try unfamiliar foods indiscriminately, okay? Maybe you will step on a landmine."

But everyone didn't care about Lu Li's words at all. Randy was the first to step forward, scooped up a mouthful with a spoon, and put it in his mouth. Before he could chew, his whole face wrinkled because it was too hot. , that funny appearance was like a monkey in a circus, which made everyone beside him burst into laughter.

Song Lingyi couldn't help but smile, "I told you, be careful not to burn it."

Randy kept jumping, exclaiming inarticulately, "Hot! Hot! Hot!" After finally cooling down a bit, he began to chew and taste slowly, but his expression was very strange. I don't know what is the reason, whether it is because it is too hot, or because of the taste.

Everyone was staring at Randy, with question marks all over their heads, but Randy was still chewing, unable to speak, that appearance...was too funny.
