Backtracking boat

After the meal and drink... oh no, after the meal and the milk, Xiao Yi continued to work, and Shen Mo went home to feed the cat to sleep.No matter how warm the winter solstice night is, it can only be called an ordinary moment of an ordinary day, but for a long time after that, Shen Mo will never forget the hot three fresh dumplings. The leeks and eggs inside are very fragrant, and the shrimps are very fresh. He went to the supermarket to buy the same brand and came back to cook it, but he always felt that it was not tasty enough. He silently attributed it to the wrong production batch number of the dumplings, the wrong cooking pot, the wrong heat, and the wrong appetite. In short, everything was wrong.

The end of the year is always busy and painful, and this year’s New Year’s Day holiday is from the 31st to the 2nd. Although the credit department does not have to stay until the early morning of the 1st, Shen Mo, as an account manager, still needs to pay attention to the status of customer accounts in real time.After getting through the melee at the end of the year, Shen Mo also temporarily breathed a sigh of relief. He slept until after 1 o'clock in the morning on the 10st, and got up lazily.On the first day of the new year, there must be a new atmosphere. Simply tidy up the room, change the cat litter, take a bath for yourself, and then grab the glutinous rice balls to take a bath. During this period, Uncle Tang was very excited and barked like a slaughterhouse. If it weren’t for the cat washing hood , Shen Mo's hands were probably going to be scratched to pieces by the angry uncle.By the time everything from the house to the people to the cat has been tidied up, it will be almost 3 pm.Looking through the refrigerator, there are only a few eggs left in stock, half a box of shrimp dumplings, and some instant sausages with unknown expiration dates.Shen Mo changed into simple clothes and went out to buy some festival food for the cats.

The supermarket is just across the road from the community, which is quite convenient. It can be seen that the rent is expensive.Maybe it's because of the holiday, before 4 o'clock the hypermarket is already full of people, the fresh food market is surrounded by aunts and uncles, and the snack cabinet is crowded with a bunch of chattering children.Shen Mo only felt noisy in the crowd, so he chose a few kinds of yogurt and ice cream at random, and threw a bunch of quick-frozen buns, wontons, and instant rice into the shopping cart, and planned to go straight to the pet food department to pick up canned cat food, check out and go home.The pet shelf is in the corner of the supermarket, relatively clean. Shen Mo was comparing a can of chicken and a can of seafood while speculating which one Shengyi liked. Suddenly, he felt that the shopping cart next to him was knocked lightly a few times, thinking that it was in the way. Tongtong raised his head quickly, but saw Xiao Yi standing in front of him with a smile on his face, the words of apology slipped to his lips and immediately turned into joy that he didn't realize: "Mr. Xiao, what a coincidence!"

"Well, let's buy some dog food."

"Have you finished your financial year-end final accounts?"

"The morning has just ended in stages. I will take a holiday in the afternoon and continue tomorrow."

During the conversation, Xiao Yi still used his shopping cart to bump into Shen Mo's car regularly, like a bored naughty kid, and said while bumping into each other: "We are about the same age, we have always been the general manager, You guys, it's very familiar, let's call each other by name." Shen Mo chuckled: "That's right, I got it, Xiao Yi."

After saying the name, Shen Mo still felt a little awkward. It was a sense of contradiction that a person was between the psychological defense line and the social boundary.Xiao Yi glanced at the corners of Shen Mo's eyes and ears, reached out and took the canned chicken in Shen Mo's right hand and threw it into the shopping cart. He decided on the type of ration for his cat owner, and chose several other pet cat and dog snacks together. Go to the checkout.There were so many people checking out that they could suffocate their impatience. Shen Mo looked around boredly, seeing people in the queue full of fruits and vegetables in their shopping carts, and casually said, "Every New Year's day, the supermarket will be emptied."

"Normal, New Year, let's not talk about whether the spiritual entertainment is rich or not, first you have to fill up the material."

"Then you plan to cook something delicious when you go back? You have to fight tomorrow."

Xiao Yi propped one hand on the shopping cart, casually fiddled with the tea bags and coffee in the shopping cart, and smiled: "I'm powerless, I'm a culinary black hand." He paused, and said with a recalling expression: "Speaking of which It’s been a long time since I’ve had decent home-cooked food, and now that I think about it, eating my mother’s food seems like a lifetime ago.”

"Your parents are from Shanghai?"

"My parents and my sister live in Canada now. The elderly don't want to travel and rarely go back to China. It's troublesome for me to go out even once."

Family members are always memorable, Xiao Yi mentioned the tenderness in those eyes: "Occasionally when I get tired of eating in the canteen, I envy my sister, I can always eat my parents' dishes, my mother's pickles are delicious Yes, it tastes better than restaurant ones."

After Xiao Yi finished speaking, he didn't pay much attention to it. Seeing that the team moved forward a lot and Shen Mo was still in a daze, he was about to remind him softly when he suddenly heard: "Let me make it for you to eat."

Seeing that Xiao Yi didn't answer, Shen Mo suddenly felt a little uneasy. He wondered if he was too familiar, and hurriedly said: "I just had a sudden idea, and my craftsmanship is not very good. In fact, it's easy to want to eat. You can find a time-honored brand. I heard that xxx's Shanghai cuisine is very authentic, and it's just in..."

"Okay!"

"what?"

"I said yes, you do it!"

Xiao Yi pulled Shen Mo's shopping cart with excitement, and combined the contents of the two carts into his own cart: "Let's go! Go buy raw materials, let me tell you first, I don't know what I need, you decide." Pulling Shen Mo Mo Yi turned around and returned to the supermarket.

Shen Mo sighed as he walked along with Xiao Yi. He hadn't cooked for 800 years, so why did he have the idea of ​​cooking for others on the spur of the moment? Could it be that he was put down.Seeing Xiao Yi looking for this and that with great interest, he followed Kaixin and asked in confusion: "Mr. Xiao... No, Xiao Yi, don't you need to accompany your girlfriend?" After saying this, he got a Suspected eye knife and a blunt answer: "No object."

The two went around the store several times, bought canned bamboo shoots, a piece of tender five flowers, and a venetian knot. Fortunately, they found Huadiao wine, but they couldn't find the bacon, so they simply replaced it with ham.Xiao Yi pushed the cart, and Shen Mo was in charge of selecting the ingredients, and when he saw that he was satisfied, he threw them into the cart, and the main ingredients and auxiliary ingredients piled up into a hill.Shen Mo hasn't been to the supermarket with anyone for several years. Walking slowly and choosing carefully, Xiao Yi was indeed cultivated by the kingdom of black cuisine. But Mo only felt that handsome Xiao Xiao was honestly pushing the trolley, blending into the hustle and bustle of the surrounding crowd, adding a little fireworks to this pseudo-kaolin flower.

When Shen Mo was buying meat, he discussed with Xiao Yi about who to cook with later. One family didn't have all kinds of seasonings, and the other family didn't even have a pot. The discussion ended in an instant.The two people carrying big and small bags returned to Shen Mo's house. Shen Mo dug out all kinds of kitchen utensils that had been shelved since buying them. The things were new and complete. Casserole, frying pan, and stew pan were lined up in a row. Xiao Yi inspected the row Guo Xiao: "Don't tell me that your side job is reselling kitchen utensils." Shen Mo was also a little embarrassed: "I was too excited when I just graduated and settled down. I used to plan to start a fire by myself, but I quickly gave up."

"Your banking business is so busy?"

"Not really, I just found out that the rice is for others to eat."

After listening to Shen Mo's words, Xiao Yi smiled softly, and said two words in a low voice: "False."

The pronunciation of these two words was too gentle, Shen Mo felt his cheeks a little hot, and fought back in a panic: "It's obviously the truth, otherwise why wouldn't you even have the blame?"

"Stupid and lazy."

alright, you win.

The pre-preparation of Xianduxian was a bit cumbersome, and Xiao Yi proved that he was unqualified as a chef assistant after ten minutes. The big man of 1.8 meters was not only in the way in the kitchen of more than ten square meters, even the air was a little thinner .Shen Mo washed and picked the vegetables and picked them up. He blanched the pork belly and sliced ​​ginger while chasing people away: "Sit in your room for a while. I'll do it myself. It's easy." Xiao Yi seemed to have never been polite to Shen Mo since the beginning of their acquaintance. However, upon hearing this, An Xin became the hands-off shopkeeper.Shen Mo was busy in the kitchen, his eyes drifted to Xiao Yi from time to time, watching Xiao Yi half-kneeling on the floor mat in the living room teasing the cat, rubbing the arrogant uncle's belly upwards, making the cat's wind disappear. This situation made Shen Mo feel even more blind. Which eye saw Xiao Yi's aloofness, which was properly placed in the book as OOC.

Shen Mo cut the pork belly and ham into pieces and put them in a casserole, boiled them over high heat and simmered them over low heat. During this period, he quickly fried vegetables, shiitake mushrooms, sweet and sour pork strips, and stewed rice. The small dining table was full of New Year's atmosphere.Xiao Yi didn't want to drink, let alone let Shen Mo drink. The two of them substituted milk for wine again, sitting around as if they had returned to the day of the winter solstice.Shen Mo usually likes to take out food, but he is actually very good at cooking.Xiao Yi picked up a large chopstick to marinate Duxian, and after eating it, the fresh aroma of the ingredients rushed into his throat and nose, and he gave Shen Mo a thumbs up approvingly.The two chatted at the dinner table, Shen Mo didn't talk much about himself, but he was a good listener.Xiao Yi doesn’t mind using himself as a topic leader, he is the leader of the topic, Xiao Yi studied at Imperial College as an undergraduate and then took a postgraduate degree. During the 8 years, he has acquired a lot of British gentleman style and politeness. He chatted with Shen Mo When he was in college, he watched naked, talked about the xenophobia and rigor of the British, and talked about his choice of major. Shen Mo heard that Xiao Yi studied mathematics as an undergraduate, and after he transferred to finance as a graduate student, he was quite sorry, and repeatedly called this a secret investment.Xiao Yi took away a shiitake mushroom, looked at Shen Mo and smiled: "If you say this, the majority of colleagues in the financial industry will be beaten up."

Shen Mo's craftsmanship has not been let down, the vegetables and meat strips are all empty, and the soup base is left with the salted Du Xian.The two of them slumped at the messy dining table, clutching their stomachs to digest food. Xiao Yi felt that he hadn't eaten so comfortably for a long time. Shen Mo was a little proud, and said, "Thank you for your support. The preparations were too hasty this time. Next time, I can make eels Eat in a tube." This unthought-out sentence is equivalent to making an appointment for another partner, Shen Mo wanted to bite his tongue again, but under Xiao Yi's bright eyes all of a sudden, he thought of self-compromise: There is nothing wrong with this, single dog Do need to care about each other.

That night, Shen Mo didn't want to sleep. He lay on the bed and looked at the page in his hand in a daze. It was the original version of "The End of the World and Grim Wonderland". Like dew is like electricity."This book was originally placed on the coffee table, but during the day Xiao Yi accidentally picked it up and flipped through it, and said with a smile: "A person who looks so gentle, how come his writing is so handsome."

At this moment, Shen Mo rubbed his fingertips over the sentence "Clouds are in the blue sky and water is in the bottle" written by Xiao Yi next to the line of writing.Shen Mo buried himself in the quilt, thinking over and over again: "It's really a beautiful handwriting, I want to make friends who can write this handwriting, maybe I can still make new friends, I want to find him as a friend! friend......"
