Yunding Ranch

Chapter 210 Sweat profusely
The bustling sounds can be heard endlessly, everyone surrounded the dining table, and the hot steam from the hot pot seemed to warm the whole room—but the point is that it is midsummer and July, so the temperature in the room began to rise steadily, fighting poison with fire The way of doing it made people sweat profusely, but also felt a rare comfort.

The lingering steam blurred their faces, leaving only laughter and laughter, and an intimate connection, as if a bridge had been built between them. At this moment, they were a real family.

That scene was like a reunion dinner on New Year's Eve.

"Fourteen, come quickly." Chloe raised her right hand, beckoned, and smiled brightly. That bright smile was so bright in the dense steam that it seemed to be enough to light up the whole world.

Lu Li suddenly froze in place, his eyes fell on the curve of Chloe's mouth, his heartbeat was beating slightly, and a slight resonance could be felt in his chest, all the noise in the world suddenly disappeared, even Chloe's waving The movements became slow motion, and there was a slight numbness from the tip of his tongue, which made the corners of Lu Li's mouth rise up following Chloe's arc.

"Fourteen!" Chloe realized that Lu Li hadn't responded, so she shouted again, her heroic and neat posture became more and more fiery in the hot atmosphere.

The slow motion of the world immediately began to accelerate, as if it had become a fast motion, but it stopped after returning to the normal speed, and the whole world returned to normal.

Lu Li realized his momentary gaffe just now, and instead of calming down, his smile rose greatly, "Here we come." Lu Li answered in a loud voice, and then walked over quickly, "How are you doing? ? Does anyone need my help?"

"No, no." Randy didn't look back, he waved his hands directly, rolled up his sleeves, and looked like he was going to have a big fight, "Oh my god, this beef is really delicious, huh, huh, The taste of this red pot is really exciting! I am going to try the mutton and the fish fillet, but is the fish fillet also delicious when it is boiled?"

"Delicious, delicious." Tony, who was standing opposite, nodded repeatedly, and hurriedly added fish slices to his bowl, "This is what I just boiled, Jessica! Jessica! Hey, if you want to eat If so, you can let it go by yourself, there is no need to grab mine!"

"Remember not to blanch the fish fillet for too long, or it will become astringent and unpalatable." Liu Xiaoyan said enthusiastically.

"My colander, Brandon, that's my colander!" Before Tony's complaints were over, Cole next to him interjected and asked, "Hey, this spoon was just put in the red pot, don't put it now Put it in a white pot, it will change the smell!"

"Do you think the red pot is delicious? Should I try the red pot? Or is the white pot enough?" Lily said curiously as she elbowed Song Lingyi next to her.

"You can try it." Song Lingyi nodded, "Try a small piece of beef. If you don't like it, you can eat it again in the white pot. You can throw some radish slices into the white pot first. The radish needs to be cooked for a longer time. After the taste, It's more delicious."

"I think lettuce tastes good when it's blanched in a white pan!" Jessica expressed her opinion, and then heard Cole nodding in agreement, "I think so too. I didn't expect that vegetables can also be delicious." So fresh!"

"My squid slice!" Tony yelled, "The squid slice is not yet cooked, I just put it down, who is it?"

"Oops, it's not cooked!" Randy spit out the squid piece he took a bite out of and put it in the colander. This action immediately aroused everyone's protest! "Randy!"

Randy smirked, and Tony laughed gloatingly, "Haha, I told you, it's not cooked yet! Don't eat indiscriminately, there's no need to be so anxious."

Lily put the freshly cooked beef into her mouth, chewed, and couldn't help but sigh, "Yeah." After chewing again, she sighed again, "Yeah." Nodding repeatedly, "Hah! , This is really delicious, the taste...is indescribable!" Lily stretched her chopsticks towards the red pot, threw two pieces of beef into it, and subconsciously said, "Ronald, you should try looking at the red pot."

However, it was only after he said it that he realized that Ronald was sulking and hated the bad taste of hot pot.

Lily raised her head, and then saw Ronald standing at the door of the restaurant, poking his head over there, obviously very curious about the scene in front of him.The most important thing is that not only did everyone not complain, but they also had a contented expression, which is too abnormal.

"Justin, hey Justin." Ronald had only one Confederate left, "What do you think?"

Justin didn't have time to pay attention to Ronald at all, he focused his eyes on the colander in front of him, the beef inside was tumbling, saw Randy's chopsticks stretched out, Justin tapped Randy's with his chopsticks without hesitation. With the back of his hand, he gave him a hard look, Randy laughed twice, and withdrew his right hand.

Standing behind Justin, Ronald looked at the tender beef without realizing it, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

The beef is done.

Ronald watched Justin reaching out to pick up the beef in the colander, "Justin..." He wanted to try it, at least he could taste it before making a judgment, but he said that he was too full before, and now he seemed a bit uncomfortable to step down .Ronald wanted to walk away, but he couldn't move his feet at all.

Justin turned over the beef in the bowl, then picked up two pieces and put them in Finley's bowl without saying anything.However, Finley showed a big smile, and then pointed to the white pot beside him, "I want to try that taste, how about it? Are you interested?"

Justin shrugged, "Would you like to try the mushrooms inside first?" Li Huainan had put a batch of vegetables in it just now, saying that they could be used as the bottom of the pot to season the hot pot. Everyone didn't understand the principle of this, but why bother? care?Just enjoy the food.

"Justin!" Ronald saw that Justin ignored him completely, and had to shout again, "Is this bad? Is this a disaster? Is this more terrible than imagined?"

Justin pondered for a moment, and said seriously, "Actually, this taste is very strange, and it's indescribable at all. I'm not sure what words to use. It's different from boiled live fish." Without any exaggeration, just like Justin's style is honest and convincing.

Ronald stared blankly at Justin, although Justin didn't say anything positive or positive answer, but Ronald could taste the deep meaning behind it - Justin likes this hot pot.

But how is it possible?How could Justin like this hot pot?The hot pot is really unpalatable, it is a mess, how can it be delicious?

Ronald's eyes fell on the faces of the other people at the table one by one, but he still couldn't see any specific content. Everyone's expression was very subtle, and he didn't know whether he liked it or hated it, but one thing There is no doubt: everyone's chopsticks are constantly stretching towards the hot pot, even though their movements are extremely awkward and jerky, they are still tireless and persistent.

"Ronald." Lu Li's voice came from behind, which made Ronald's muscles tense up. He straightened his face, hiding all his curiosity and exploration, and put on an impatient expression again. , "Would you like to try it? You know, I'm a lazy guy. If I want to make dumplings now, it will take a lot of work."

Open your eyes and talk nonsense, just now you said it was extremely simple, 10 minutes will do.

"You can try it first, if you don't mind, then save me some trouble." Lu Li said kindly, "What do you think?"

Ronald looked at Lu Li's inquiring expression, and then looked at the others - everyone was sweating profusely, their faces were flushed with sweat, and their clothes were almost drenched with sweat, but after careful searching, But they couldn’t see any painful expressions, and while wiping their sweat, they continued to stretch their chopsticks into the hot pot, joking with each other from time to time, “Hey, you stole my squid slices!” It's not gone... Oh, fourteen, fourteen, the beef is almost bottomed out, isn't there anything else to add?"

That sweaty look somehow made Ronald a little envious.

"Ronald?" Lu Li's call brought him back to his senses, and he cleared his throat, "I... well, I'm a guest, so let's do as the host. But don't expect me to like this strange thing, You know, I tasted hot pot..."

"I know, I know, the taste is terrible." Lu Li nodded, "But you can't be hungry, so let's just settle for it."

Ronald shrugged and scanned around hesitantly, "Uh, what do I need to do? I mean dipping sauce."

"Ronald, you must try the hot sauce, it's delicious, it's really delicious." "I think the sand tea sauce is more delicious, if you don't believe me, try it!" "I just saw Nan added mustard , It feels really good!" "I like the formula that Fourteen just made, it's strong enough."...

Everyone suggested that Ronald was in a cloud for a while, and Lu Li knew Ronald, but his taste was still too heavy. "Otherwise, you should try the hot sauce first, and then match it with the combination."

Ronald shrugged, with a look of helplessness, noncommittal.

Lu Li didn't poke Ronald, obediently went to the side to prepare a dipping sauce for Ronald, turned around and handed it over, "If you don't have anything to try, then I suggest beef, beef is always the best choice."

Ronald snorted, took the dipping sauce, and impatiently walked to the table, his slightly accelerated footsteps revealed his inner urgency, "Let me go, let me go, I'm starving." Ronald said in a deep voice.

After occupying a seat, he picked up a colander, put some beef into the red pot, and then put some fish fillets into the white pot—he saw Jessica try it just now, the taste should be very unique , and then put some vegetables into the white pot. This was really an unexpected situation. He has never been a vegetable lover, but today, he felt that the vegetables seemed to have a good taste.

After completing a series of actions, Ronald held his own bowl and chopsticks, looking expectantly at the gurgling hot pot in front of him, like a child.
