I'm really sorry for my low EQ.

According to Xu Yang's personality, he really didn't want to be reconciled to his culinary skills staying at the infant level, so as soon as Wu Yuan finished speaking, he wrapped the blanket around the other party's body, and immediately dragged him downstairs.

Wu Yuan was curious to see him rummaging in the box. Before coming to the town, the two of them went to the supermarket and bought a lot of fresh local beef, mutton, vegetables and fruits. Wu Yuan didn't know what to do when he saw that he bought so much. Until now, with a mysterious expression on his face, Xu Yang took out a bag of spicy hot pot base from the inner layer of the box.

Wu Yuan: "..."

Wu Yuan said seriously: "Senior, this is cheating."

Xu Yang came over with the ingredients, pinched his face, and said triumphantly, "It's good enough."

Xu Yang decided to use hot pot to show off his glory. After the two of them came to Australia, they had steak, hamburger and fries almost every day.

Or Chinese food can appease people's stomach.

What's more, there is a multi-functional pot brought by the elementary school brother who is quite good at living.

Simply perfect.

Wu Yuan wanted to help, but Xu Yang refused. When Wu Yuan stretched out his hand to get vegetables, Xu Yang put his arms around his waist and hugged him on the stove, and placed him next to a pile of fruits and vegetables, supporting the stove She went over and kissed him: "Just sit here and pass me the vegetables, and I'll do the cutting and washing."

It was the first time for Wu Yuan to sit in this kind of place, he knocked his feet uncomfortably, took out a grapefruit from the bag, put it on his nose and sniffed it aimlessly, Xu Yang smiled and said: "Want to eat? I'll cut it for you."

Wu Yuan hugged the grapefruit and shook his head, only staring at him up and down. Xu Yang was washing the lettuce, the tip of his hair was illuminated by the light above his head in a light orange-yellow color, he was tearing off the lettuce leaves one by one, his neck was very A black apron was hung casually, and the straps at the back were forgotten.

The words "firewood, rice, oil and salt" suddenly appeared in Wu Yuan's mind.

"Senior."

Xu Yang turned his head, Wu Yuan pointed to his apron: "Let me tie it for you."

Xu Yang was overjoyed when he heard that, his hands were dripping with water, and he stepped back on the spot. Wu Yuan grabbed his two straps and carefully helped him tie a loose buckle. Xu Yang came just after he finished Turning back, she pouted at him and begged for a kiss.

Wu Yuan: "..."

Xu Yang's two lips moved, with an expression on his face that if you don't kiss me, I won't leave. Wu Yuan helplessly supported his shoulder, and kissed him on his lips, which gave Xu Yang infinite motivation like a charge. , the vegetables were cut quickly and well, and the potatoes were no longer thick slices of one centimeter, so I picked up a thin slice and showed it to Wu Yuan: "How is it?"

"It's pretty good." Wu Yuan praised sincerely.

Xu Yang immediately froze: "Your senior, I just didn't become a cook."

Wu Yuan: "..."

Meat is more difficult to cut than vegetables. There are no mutton rolls sold in Australian supermarkets. The two decided to boil raw mutton. However, although the meat here is fresh, it is as big as half a washbasin when it is sold, so it is not easy to cut it. Seeing Xu Yang pressing the meat with one hand and holding the knife in the other, he couldn't help but said, "I should do it?"

"No," Xu Yang stopped him, "It's covered with oil, you have to wash your hands after touching it."

Wu Yuan had no choice but to look at him, the meat is difficult to cut because of the oil, if it slips and cuts into his hands--

"what!"

Xu Yang let out a cry of pain, and the knife hit the cutting board with a bang, Wu Yuan's face immediately turned pale, and he jumped down to look at his hands, but Xu Yang kept his back to prevent him from looking, and kept saying "it's all right", but the more he Said it was okay, Wu Yuan became more and more anxious, and forcibly pulled that hand over, "Is it hurt, is it bleeding?"

Xu Yang couldn't resist him, so he pulled his hand away. Wu Yuan was going to take iodine to treat his wound, but he saw that the hand had long, slender fingers and distinct joints. Not to mention the blood on the palm and back, there was no bump at all.

Wu Yuan: "..."

Xu Yang couldn't help it: "Hahaha."

Wu Yuan raised his eyes, and Xu Yang poked his face with his finger: "I'm scaring you, why am I so easily-"

Before he could finish speaking, Wu Yuan raised his hand and slapped him—it landed lightly on the right cheek without any strength at all, but his eyes stared at him resentfully, Xu Yang had never seen him like this , knowing that he was angry, he hurriedly hugged him and pressed him into his arms, coaxing: "I was wrong, I will never scare you again."

Wu Yuan's heart beat fast, he frowned and said, "I thought you were bleeding."

Xu Yang looked down at his face, and felt sweet at first, thinking that he was worried about himself so that he was so anxious, so he had never seen him so anxious about anyone; at the same time, he blamed himself, the joke just now was a bit too big, The elementary school boy actually slapped him directly. Although the slap was more like a caress, it was really amazing to Wu Yuan.

"No bleeding, no scratches on the skin." Xu Yang showed him his two intact hands again, then pulled him to the open-air dining table on the balcony, and changed the subject, "Primary school brother, help me get the hot pot bottom Let’s take it apart and we’re ready to eat.”

Although he knew that he was not injured, Wu Yuan refused to let him cut the meat no matter what. The knifeman carefully cut up the remaining meat, put the vegetables and meat on a large plate, and Xu Yang poured the drink over there. The water was boiled, and the two worked together. After 10 minutes, they were almost ready to eat.

The hot pot gurgled and started bubbling.

The scent of chili oil wafted around the balcony, attracting all the labradors raised by the old man, barking at the bottom of the stairs, sticking out their tongues and sitting obediently, waiting to be fed.

Xu Yang threw two pieces of clean meat to him, and the Labrador jumped up and down, circling in his mouth, Wu Yuan smiled softly, Xu Yang looked at his profile and asked, "Do you like dogs or not?" cat?"

Wu Yuan: "I like them all."

"What about the senior?"

Xu Yang: "I'm similar, but the cat has a bigger temper and doesn't care about people."

"Same as you." He smiled and looked at Wu Yuan.

Wu Yuan frowned, Xu Yang described him as he poured meat into the pot: "It's still a cat that runs away when approached."

Wu Yuan pursed his lips and refused to answer his words: "Let's order more food."

"You eat the meat first." Xu Yang increased the heat a bit. The mutton was so tender that it was cooked soon after it was put into the pot. He took a large chopstick and put it in Wu Yuan's bowl. "Try it, the mutton here is The local characteristics are different from those in China.”

Wu Yuan picked up a piece, closed his mouth as soon as he put it in his mouth, opened his eyes wide and looked at Xu Yang, chewing with his cheeks puffed up.

He always ate the thin mutton rolls when he ate hot pot, but he didn't expect that the ones cut directly were another kind of freshness. Seeing the corners of his lips rising upwards and the bright eyes smiling on his face, Xu Yang felt very happy. After eating one piece carefully, he couldn't help but say, "So delicious? Are you still hungry?"

"Yeah." Wu Yuan nodded, "It's delicious."

"...I'm hungry too."

He said softly again, just as Xu Yang was about to laugh, he saw him being scalded, sticking out the hot red tip of his tongue, and retracting it with a gasp, Xu Yang hurriedly brought him the drink, speaking a little softer than before, " Eat slowly, there are still many dishes to come."

Wu Yuan didn't forget to pinch him when it was hot: "You eat too."

Xu Yang felt elated in his heart: "I'm eating."

As soon as this sentence landed, the Labrador barked again. The two thought it was hungry again, so they followed the reputation, but they met a pair of beautiful blue eyes.

A little girl with blond hair stood under the house at some point, looked up at the balcony where they were, and saw Wu Yuan Xu Yang looking towards her, she was a little embarrassed and said "Hi" shyly, Xu Yang He also smiled "Hi" and went back, thinking that the little girl would say something, but after waiting for a while, the other party stood there motionless, blinking at them.

Wu Yuan: "?"

Xu Yang: "??"

"Jesse!"

A shout suddenly came from the house next door. It was the voice of the old man who owned the house. The little girl called Jessie did not answer, but still looked at Wu Yuan and the others with wide innocent eyes. When the light was turned on, Xu Yang saw Jessie's expression clearly.

She was indeed looking in their direction, but it wasn't them, but the steaming pot.

Look carefully, the eyes seem to be a little greedy.

Xu Yang: "..."

"Hey! Jesse, what are you doing there!"

The old man came to pull the little girl, his nose twitched halfway, and suddenly he smelled a smell that was too sweet to describe in his native language. It seemed to be some kind of spice, but it didn't look like it. He couldn't help asking: "Children, what do you eat?" What is it?"

After saying this sentence, he found that his saliva became abundant.

"Hot pot." Xu Yang explained.

The old man has heard of "hot pot", but that's all. It's the first time he knows that hot pot smells so good. He wanted to pull Jessie away immediately, but his feet seemed to be stuck on the ground. Xi was more like a wooden stake, determined not to leave, and even took the old man's hand and whispered something in his ear.

The old man was speechless: "...Didn't you just finish dinner?"

Jesse grinned, shaking her head.

Seeing this, Wu Yuan and Xu Yang understood even if they didn't understand. Xu Yang laughed, feeling the profoundness of Chinese food, and kindly extended an invitation to the father and two who were still struggling: "We still have a lot of dishes here, two people I can't finish eating, why don't you come up and eat together?"

Jesse's eyes were like little flames, which lit up after a while, and the old man looked helpless with the kid, but he was actually extremely excited: he was finally going to eat the legendary hot pot!

The locals were not polite, so the old man immediately said, "Then wait a minute, I'll go get some beers!"

While he was talking, Jesse had already climbed up the stairs. The little girl was very beautiful, with blond hair and blue eyes, and a few freckles on her nose. Sitting next to Wu Yuan, his legs dangled.

Wu Yuan looked at her with a smile.

Jesse was very introverted, when he met his gaze, he immediately buried his face in his palm, his blue eyes looked at Wu Yuan through his fingers, Xu Yang thought this scene was quite amusing, and said with a smile, "Can you eat spicy food?"

Jesse nodded and whispered, "I can."

Xu Yang pointed at the pot again: "It must be hotter than you imagined."

Jesse looked at the red soup and pursed his lips: "It's okay."

At this time Xu Yang thought she was trying to be brave, so he gave her a small bowl, Jessie took it excitedly, and the old man over there came up with three bottles of cold beer, Wu Yuan looked over and found that he was still behind his back saying To play the guitar for them during the day.

The old man seemed to be in high spirits.

"I'll play a song for you later!"

The old man smiled and stared at the meat in the pot.

It seems that the music is played for the meat...

Xu Yang saw that both his grandpa and grandson were drooling, and said, "Let's eat first, and we'll talk when we're full."

Jessie kept nodding, her cultural output was very strong, and the little girl could actually use chopsticks, her posture was very upright, her little hands were raised, and she looked ready to go.

Wu Yuan and Xu Yang didn't eat two bites just now, and they were already hungry by now, so they didn't say much politely, and immediately put meat in and vegetables.

After all, the grandpa and grandson have had dinner, so they probably just came here to try something new, and they can't eat too much—Xu Yang thought so at first, but...

Just a few seconds after the meat went down, two shadows swished from the corner of the eye, and the pot was empty. He looked in the direction of the grandpa and grandson in disbelief, and the faces of the old man and Jesse could not be seen. Xu Yang opened his eyes: "Is the meat not cooked yet?"

The old man ate deliciously and didn't mind: "We like to eat medium rare."

"..." Jesse didn't even look up.

Xu Yang was worried that Wu Yuan wasn't full yet, and he himself was so hungry that his chest stuck to his back, so he put another plate of meat into the pot, as well as potato chips and other filling starches, turned up the heat, and he As soon as he raised his chopsticks to pick them up, he brushed his arms before his eyes, and when he looked again, there were only a few uncooked potato chips left in the pot.

Xu Yang's chopsticks were hanging in the air: "???"

The old man's mouth was reddened by the spicy soup. Halfway through the meal, he did not forget to praise him sincerely: "The hot pot in your country is so delicious!"

where where.

People in your country are really not polite at all!

There was no meat left on the plate.

Xu Yang looked at Wu Yuan almost aggrieved, he didn't even eat a few mouthfuls!

Wu Yuan couldn't help laughing, and gave him the few pieces left on his plate just now, and said to Jesse and the old man, "Is it enough? We still have noodles, and we can cook them too."

Jesse was sweating from eating, and tapped his chin several times, the corners of his mouth almost hooked to his ears.

Wu Yuan went over to get the noodles.

Xu Yang looked at Jesse again at this time, it was really impressive, the little girl was so unfathomable, she looked quiet, she ate more fiercely than her grandfather, when he stood up to pick up the meat just now, he suspected that he was in the other party's mouth. Seeing swords and swords in his big blue eyes, the kind that can be on the battlefield in the next second.

After cooking all the dishes, Wu Yuan put the wide dry hand-rolled noodles into the pot, Xu Yang stopped Jessie who couldn't help but eat the crispy noodles in time, and told her that the noodles taste best when they are cooked.

Jessie smiled sweetly, but her hands on the chopsticks were clenched, ready to cook at all times.

Xu Yang: "..."

Sure enough, in the end, everyone was full, only Jesse was not full.

The little girl bowed her head and ate the noodles. Xu Yang took a closer look and found that she had scooped two large spoonfuls of spicy soup into the bowl by herself. She ate a mouthful of noodles and drank a mouthful of soup. Although both Xu Yang and Wu Yuan could eat spicy food, but I have never drank it so directly, the little girl is really a warrior.

At this moment, the old man played the guitar, and his lips were numb from the hot pepper, and he sang softly. It was a new song written and composed by himself.

What is this all about?

"..."

Xu Yang put his hands on the back of Wu Yuan's chair in a nonchalant manner, the guitar tune was clear and melodious, and the old man's slightly hoarse but very pleasant singing was brought by the evening wind. Slowly, the sound of the hot pot boiling became There was a distant background sound, the little girl was eating behind the scenes, and the two of them were sitting here listening to the old man singing. It was much more lively than before, but their hearts were miraculously quiet.

The Southern Cross above the head is still the same Southern Cross.

After the old man sang, Xu Yang and Wu Yuan applauded in unison. The old man smiled smugly and told them about making music and the small fresh cultural circle in Australia. Finally, the story went around and went back to this small house that only accommodates a few thousand people. Town, back to his home, Xu Yang asked the old man: "You just said that this house is specially built for guests to live in?"

"Yes," the old man said with a smile, "I use the best materials, and the guests live comfortably."

"the best?"

Xu Yang and Wu Yuan simultaneously thought of another old man and asked at the same time.

The old man nodded: "Of course, the guests come to our country and our small town from afar to experience the local customs and culture? I want to leave a good impression on them, that is, even if they come to my place, It's the same as returning to my own home... that feeling."

"As you know, I never set limits on what my tenants can do."

The old man wrinkled his face with a smile.

Wu Yuan and Xu Yang looked at each other, then smiled at the old man, "We like this place very much."

"That would be wonderful!" said the old man contentedly.

The context is really familiar.

Wu Yuan thought he could understand the old man's current mood.

It's just that the position has changed. Now he is the guest and the old man is the host.

Wu Yuan bent his eyes: "Next time if you have a chance, you are welcome to visit our country."

"Definitely go!" The old man made a gesture of assurance, pointing at the pot and laughing: "Go and eat your authentic hot pot!"

"Is that Jesse?"

Warrior Jesse raised his head, licked the spicy oil on his mouth and said, "Yes."

Xu Yang smiled and said, "Our country has more than hot pot."

"What else?" Jessie asked curiously. She was a little girl living in a remote place in Australia, and she had never even been to a big city in her own country, let alone the eastern country that was separated from them by an ocean.

Wu Yuan handed Jesse a piece of paper to wipe his mouth, and said patiently: "There are still 5000 years of history and culture, famous mountains and great rivers, cultural relics..."

Jesse: "Wow!"

"There are still many houses." Xu Yang said with a smile.

"house?"

Jesse asked.

"Well," Xu Yang pointed to the old man's glass castle, "it's as good as the one your grandpa built."

"Grandpa's building..."

Jesse's eyes were instantly brighter than the Southern Cross in the sky.

A piece of green sea water emerged in her mind, which was the distance between two countries, and it seemed to be something deeper. She rested her chin and relished the taste of hot pot, and became more and more curious about that mysterious oriental country .Just like when Xu Yang flew back to his hometown to reunite with Wu Yuan, she was thinking that when she grows up, she must fly there one day to see the mountains and waters that the big brother just mentioned, and... She looked up Looking at the dome of the glass castle, he pursed his lips——

And those houses.
