Chapter 293 Teach You to Cook Soup

Yin Li's expectant eyes were not happier when she saw Zhou Yingli bring out the sandwiches, but even lowered her face.

That's wrong, where's the apron?

Zhou Yingli ignored Yin Li's stare, put down the sandwich, turned around and walked to the kitchen again.

Before Zhou Yingli walked into the kitchen, Zhou Lixi had already brought out a pot of porridge.

One pot of porridge is only enough for seven people. Zhou Lixi thought about cooking two pots of porridge with different ingredients.However, Li Xiumei and the others have been losing weight during this period of time and have achieved some results. They cannot interrupt their weight loss plan just because of the arrival of Zhou Mingren and Zhou Yingli.

It's not easy to stick to one thing, once you break it, it's hard to keep it going.

Therefore, Cao Dasheng, Cao Dagui, and Li Xiumei could only eat half a bowl of porridge and a sandwich for each pot of porridge prepared by Zhou Lixi.At the beginning, Daifuku also said that he wanted to lose weight, but later he found out that he was pregnant, so he stopped the plan to lose weight.

Zhou Lixi took out a pot of porridge and went to the bathroom to wash her hands, while Xiaohui spooned porridge for everyone.

According to the hint of Zhou Lixi's departure, Xiaohui's porridge for Zhou Mingren and others was [-]% full, while the porridge for Cao Dasheng and the others was only half.

Cao Dasheng and others understood Xiaohui's meaning, so they didn't say anything, but Zhou Mingren saw it and asked strangely: "Why..."

Before Zhou Mingren could finish speaking, Yin Li explained: "The few of them are losing weight."

She knew that Li Xiumei and the others couldn't speak, so she spoke for them.

"lose weight……"

Zhou Mingren glanced at the three of Cao Dasheng and thought: They really should lose weight.

After Zhou Lixi was seated, Cao Dasheng seemed to be a little afraid of Zhou Mingren and Zhou Yingli, so he stammered, "Eat, eat."

"Is this also made by Li Xi?" Zhou Mingren asked, raising the sandwich he took a bite out of.

"Yes, Li Xi not only knows how to stir-fry, but also makes Western-style desserts. He made biscuits yesterday." Li Xiumei praised.

At that time, Li Xi didn't make many biscuits, most of them were eaten by her and Yin Li, and a small part was hidden by her, and the hidden part was solved by Zhiri and Xinyu yesterday.

They thought that Zhou Mingren didn't like biscuits, so they didn't give them to him.

"And biscuits? Let me try it next time." Zhou Mingren said excitedly.

He knew that the biscuits made this time must be gone, and he could only look forward to the next time.

Yin Li and Li Xiumei guessed wrong. To be precise, their expectations were not fulfilled.It is true that Zhou Mingren doesn't like biscuits, but he wants to taste anything delicious made by his grandson Zhou Lixi.

"Next time, I will give you a taste next time!" Li Xiumei promised.

She thought in her heart that next time she must be restrained, and control herself not to eat too much, and save some for Mr. Zhou.

Yin Li looked at Zhou Lixi, all the emotions she wanted to express were revealed in her eyes.

"I'll do more next time."

As Yin Li wished, Zhou Lixi agreed to her "request".

"By the way, Li Xi's culinary skills are so good, if you should learn from him, maybe you can improve your culinary skills very quickly."

Zhou Mingren was full of hope, completely forgetting that he was the one who asked Yin Li to persuade Zhou Yingli not to cook anymore.

"Let's forget it, let Li Xi cook in the future, so as not to get hurt again."

Unlike Zhou Mingren who regained his confidence, Yin Li still couldn't believe Zhou Yingli.She spoke as if she cared about Zhou Yingli, but in fact she didn't want Zhou Yingli to make bad food to harm her.

Zhou Lixi was silent, he had an idea in his heart, but he didn't plan to say it for the time being, he wanted to surprise them.

After Zhou Lixi and Dafu went to work, Zhou Mingren and others gathered in the small yard to play like yesterday.

The difference from yesterday was that there was one more person——Zhou Mingren.

Zhou Mingren's face was expressionless, exuding indifference. When everyone laughed heartily, if they accidentally saw his cold face, the smile on his face would involuntarily froze.

Of course, there were three exceptions, namely Zhou Mingren, Yin Li, and the housekeeper of the Zhou family.

"Continue." Someone who seemed to be unaware of the situation said coldly.

Li Xiumei and the others couldn't stop laughing, but hearing him say that made them smile even more.

It's just that when Zhou Yingli said this, they felt that they would not give him face if they didn't smile, so Li Xiumei and the five of them all pulled away their ugly smiles.

Seeing this, Zhou Yingli frowned slightly.

He let them continue thinking that they could continue to have fun, but he didn't expect it to be counterproductive.

Yin Li explained for Zhou Yingli: "He has no other intentions, he just wants you to continue playing happily and leave him alone, so you don't have to be restrained."

Although Yin Li said this, it was still difficult for Li Xiumei and others to regard Zhou Yingli, who was venting the air-conditioning by their side, as a transparent person.

So, throughout the day, such embarrassing things happened several times.

Yin Li couldn't bear it anymore, so she dragged Zhou Yingli into the room to teach her a lesson, but she was misunderstood by Li Xiumei again.

In the afternoon, after Zhou Lixi and Dafu came back, Yin Li drove Zhou Yingli into the kitchen again to tie Xiaohui's apron on him, and ordered him not to take it off.

After Yin Li left, Zhou Lixi said to Zhou Yingli, "I can teach you how to cook."

"No, your mother told me not to study, she said she was afraid."

To be honest, Zhou Yingli made no secret of the fact that he was disgusted by Yin Li.

"I don't teach you cooking, do you want to try cooking soup?"

"Boil soup?"

He can't even cook vegetables well. Can he cook soup?

"It's very easy to cook soup. Once the ingredients are matched, put in the right amount of water and add some seasonings. It seems difficult, but it's actually very simple. You should be able to do it."

"Let me try."

Hearing what Zhou Lixi said, Zhou Yingli was moved.

Zhou Lixi prepared two soup ingredients, he put one of them into the casserole first, and poured an appropriate amount of water into it.

Zhou Yingli complied.

Although he was clumsy about pouring the ingredients into the pot, it wasn't a frying pan, so he wasn't hurt.

It was even easier to pour water. He remembered the amount of water that Zhou Lixi poured, and the amount of the two ingredients was about the same, so the amount of water he poured was similar to that of Zhou Lixi.

Putting two pots of soup on the stove to simmer, Zhou Lixi started to cook, while Zhou Yingli "studied" seriously.

Zhou Lixi's words rekindled Zhou Yingli's hope, and he once again had the idea of ​​learning and doing it.

Every time Zhou Lixi cooked a dish, Zhou Yingli brought it out and put it on the dining table.

Seeing Xiaohui's apron hanging on Zhou Yingli for the first time, Li Xiumei and the others wanted to laugh but dared not laugh, feeling uncomfortable.

Especially Xiao Hui, whose face turned blue and purple.

She thought, her apron made Zhou Yingli embarrassing in front of everyone, would he hold her in his heart?

But Zhou Mingren and the butler were dumbfounded.

Is this really what they should do in a serious week?

"Hey~" Only Yin Li could still laugh.

Everyone's reaction now is the result of her creation, and she is very proud.

Zhou Yingli ignored their reactions, put down a dish, and continued to walk into the kitchen.

After more than an hour, Zhou Lixi put seasoning into the soup while Zhou Yingli was standing aside.

Zhou Yingli didn't know what he put, but he remembered the order and the amount of those bottles and jars that Zhou Lixi used.

He used the seasonings on the cooking table according to the order and amount of Zhou Lixi's ingredients.

The final soup was finished, and Zhou Lixi finally finished the dishes.

Usually he only cooks four or five dishes, and it will be done quickly.This time I made seven or eight dishes, which took a lot of time, and the dishes served in front were all cold.

But as long as it is made by him, even if it is cold, everyone will eat it with gusto.

Zhou Lixi first let everyone taste the soup he served at the end.

"This soup hasn't been stewed for a long time, and the taste may not be too strong, but it's okay." Zhou Lixi said.

"Yes, yes..." Everyone agreed.

Can they say no to what Zhou Lixi made?

The things Zhou Lixi made are no longer acceptable, who else has the ability to satisfy them? !

Under Zhou Lixi's gesture, Xiaohui spooned a bowl of soup in front of them.

"Drink the soup first."

In a traditional banquet, the first dish served is soup, so it was not surprising that Zhou Lixi made such a request.

Zhou Yingli looked at the bowl of soup in front of him in a daze.

If he remembered correctly, what Zhou Lixi brought out seemed to be the soup he "cooked"?

Zhou Yingidean prevented Yin Li from drinking it, because she was most afraid of eating what he made.But when he came back to his senses, Yin Li had already drank a few spoonfuls of the soup, and everyone else drank it spoon by spoonful, as if they didn't feel bad.

While everyone was drinking soup, Zhou Lixi went to the kitchen and brought out another pot of soup.

When everyone saw it, their faces turned blue.

How can there be two pots of soup?

Obviously, there must be a pot of soup that Zhou Yingli cooked. They tasted the first pot, and there was no problem. It seems that what Zhou Yingli made was the pot of soup in Zhou Lixi's hands.

Does Zhou Lixi mean to let Temo try what Zhou Yingli made?

"I haven't finished my soup yet, so I don't want it." Yin Li refused with a "smile".

Not only Yin Li, but others did not finish the first bowl of soup, so they all had reasons to refuse.

Xiaohui took out the second batch of prepared bowls and gave everyone a second bowl of soup from the second pot.

Two bowls of soup are placed in front of them, one bowl is more and the other is less. For them, the bowl with less soup is more attractive to them, after all, they have already tasted it.

Although the two bowls of soup smelled the same, no one dared to try the second bowl of soup.

Dafu sighed secretly, then said, "I am willing to try."

"No, you are pregnant with a baby!" Yin Li stopped immediately.

She was a victimized person, and she knew how harmful what Zhou Yingli did, so she didn't dare to let the pregnant Dafu try it.

"It's okay, it smells the same, I'm willing to try it." Dafu insisted.

His temper hardened, and Yin Li couldn't stop it.

Seeing Dafu spooning a spoonful of soup, Yin Li and Li Xiumei's hearts were frightened.

Zhou Lixi should be the one who cares about Dafu the most, but he didn't stop Dafu from doing this this time.

Dafu took a sip, with a surprised expression on his face.

He looked between bowls in disbelief.As if he didn't believe his own judgment, he deliberately took a sip of this bowl, and then another sip of that bowl. He tried several times, but the result was the same.

"What's wrong?" Yin Li asked.

Li Xiumei said: "Dafu, mixing good and bad food won't make it delicious."

"No, the taste is similar." Dafu said in a daze.

"The taste is similar?" Everyone exclaimed.

But they soon had new ideas in their hearts.

"Li Xi, you scared me to death. It turns out that you cooked the soup. Don't use two pots next time, it will scare people to death." Yuan Yuan patted his chest and said in fear.

"No, the first bowl of soup you tasted was... papa made it!"

Zhou Lixi calmly said something "appalling".
