Chapter 52 Gourmet Revival (4)

"I hired you primarily as a kitchen helper."

Cheng Jieyi put his foot away, turned around and returned to the house in a "ruthless" manner.

"Since my long-term worker didn't run away, I'm relieved."

Cheng Jieyi opened the door and let Chunlei in.

The temperature in the house is comfortable, dispelling Cheng Jieyi's chill, it was too cold outside, he hadn't paid much attention to Chunlei at first, but after entering the house, he saw that there seemed to be a little stain on Chunlei's back.

Cheng Jieyi tilted his head and thought for a while, turned on the light screen and placed an order for some free-size clothes and daily necessities at the automatic order place in the mall.

"After you take a shower, you can change into new clothes."

After Cheng Jieyi finished speaking, he went upstairs, completely unaware that this sentence sounded like a hint to Chunlei.

Chunlei calmly took a comfortable hot bath in the bathroom, wrapped around a bath towel and opened the front door to receive the goods from the mall's AI robot.

Cheng Jieyi didn't choose any particular style, he just bought some white shirts, casual pants, and cotton T-shirts of the same style as what Chunlei wore during the day.

Chunlei picked one at random and put it on. For people with tall legs and excellent physique, the simpler the clothes, the better they can show off their figure.

After simply taking care of it, Chun Lei confirmed that there was no smell of those sneak attackers on her hands, and then went up to the second floor.

Then...he heard Cheng Jieyi's shallow breathing.

It was the sound of a sleeping person.

Chunlei stroked her chin with one hand, and entered her room somewhat disappointed.

This employer doesn't seem to have any more needs for his long-term workers, which is different from some nobles' private secrets and some news broadcasts.

Chunlei lay on the soft bed, recalling Cheng Jieyi's bud-like toes standing on the grass, and slowly fell asleep.

This is the first time this gourmet has slept in a place suitable for sleeping since he was exiled in Sunset City.

After this wave of assassins are eliminated, he will usher in a period of stability.

Until the people from the "Law of Fairness" come, he will return to the capital star and start a new round of winning and losing games with the group of old and undead zombies.

Cheng Jieyi woke up in the morning, went to the bathroom attached to the room to wash up, and subconsciously turned on the light screen to order a takeaway.

When he saw the greyish-black, purple-green things emitting ominous and strange black smoke on the light screen, and the proud advertising slogan "Have a refreshing bowl in the morning to welcome a beautiful morning", Cheng Jieyi silently turned off the light screen.

There is no going back.

When Cheng Jieyi went downstairs, a familiar aroma was already wafting from the kitchen.

Onion scrambled eggs again.

Cheng Jieyi knew that the plate of scrambled eggs must be in the best condition just by smelling it, but early in the morning, he always wanted to eat something softer to warm his stomach.

"Good day."

Chunlei put a plate of onion scrambled eggs on the table, and he still wears a single-sided gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, but apparently the function that helps him see people clearly in the daytime has not been repaired. Chunlei didn’t care before, but now he wants to Look at Cheng Jieyi's appearance during the day.

Cheng Jieyi waved at him, and Chunlei followed Cheng Jieyi into the kitchen.

If you are a serious cook, you will not just cook the same dish repeatedly.

But in this world where food is scarce, when people get a recipe, they will not explore other tastes.It seems that in the long river of history, they have tried many times and ended in failure every time.

So I don’t think about anything, I don’t need to get anything, I just eat whatever is given to me by the superiors, anyway, it’s all the same unpalatable, so there’s no need to struggle.

Cheng Jieyi recalled the information of this plane, and guessed that Chunlei might not know other dishes, and even if he could... maybe it would not be easy to cook in front of him.

Cheng Jieyi rummaged through the refrigerator, and managed to find some grains suitable for cooking porridge. Although these grains also had different shapes and strange shapes, they were all starch, and they could always be used after chopping.

"Are you going to open the fruit of Suoli?"

Chunlei took a step forward, took the coconut-sized fruit in Cheng Jieyi's hand, twisted her fingers slightly, and opened the thick brown shell, revealing the golden grains inside.

"Humans can eat it raw, but it seems to be a snack that creatures like rabbits like."

Chunlei put those grains into a bowl, Cheng Jieyi took a look, isn't this the rice that hasn't been hulled yet?

Although it has changed its appearance, it is still food within the scope of Cheng Jieyi's comprehension, thank God.

Seeing that Cheng Jieyi seemed to be trying to crush these golden particles with a thick spoon, Chunlei raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Let me do it."

Chunlei quickly shelled the big bowl of grains within 30 seconds.

The snow-white particles fell into the bowl like a crystal clear snow.

Cheng Jieyi was not as poetic as Chunlei, he turned on the light screen and looked at the recipes on the light screen.

This is a world without an electric rice cooker. We can only wash the rice and put it in a cooking pot, add an appropriate amount of water, and simmer on high heat.

Cheng Jie meant to pay attention to the heat, so as not to cook the porridge into rice.

Chunlei can't see clearly during the day, but the smell can remind Cheng Jieyi a few words, "Should I stir it?" "Should I boil it for a while?"...

Cheng Jieyi raised his eyes and glanced at Chunlei, the handsome young man looked at the pot of porridge churning in front of him, as if looking at the most precious treasure in the world.

"What work were you doing before?" Cheng Jieyi asked casually as he gently scraped the overflowing white rice soup by the side of the pot with a spoon.

"Let's be considered a gourmet."

Chunlei noticed that Cheng Jieyi's breathing stopped for a moment, and laughed softly.

"But I'm not the kind of gourmet who holds recipes and gourmet mysteries in my hands. I'm a gourmet who wanders around the stars, looking for edible ingredients."

"Isn't it strange that I don't know how to cook it now that I have found edible ingredients?" Cheng Jieyi slowed down and looked up at Chunlei.

Chunlei gently raised her hand and stretched out her index finger to put it on her lips, her red eyes narrowed slightly with a smile, it was a tacit smile.

"Maybe you know, but under the law, who dares to talk nonsense?"

"So the world doesn't bypass those old rules and let people... eat whatever they want?"

As soon as Cheng Jieyi finished speaking, Chunlei's expression suddenly changed, and Chunlei grabbed his hand holding the spoon.After a brief moment of daze, Cheng Jieyi felt the pain in his index finger, it was because he was inadvertently scalded by the hot pot.

Cheng Jieyi subconsciously wanted to turn on the faucet to take a shower of cold water, but found that his fingers were being licked by Chunlei's tongue.

The pale pink fingertips were gently sucked into the mouth, and the temperature of the tip of the tongue was naturally lower than that of the fingers, which instantly neutralized the pain of Cheng Jieyi's fingertips.

No, the hot pain at the fingertips seemed to have really disappeared.

"The saliva of my family has a slight healing effect," Chunlei put away the tip of her tongue with some reluctance, "It's good to lick this kind of burn."

Cheng Jieyi looked at Chunlei's face full of infinite temptation, like the straightest straight man in the world, he raised his hand mercilessly to turn on the faucet and began to wash his hands.

"...to be hygienic when cooking, that's the benchmark."

Chunlei suddenly realized and nodded, as if he just realized the basic truth.

"So that's the case. If something like this happens in the future, I will be responsible for cleaning it for you."

"It won't happen in the future."

Cheng Jieyi continued to stir the rice grains in the pot with a spoon, until the rice grains gradually softened, the spoon could easily crush the rice grains, the white rice soup became thick, and the unique hot and sweet aroma of white porridge filled the kitchen, Cheng Jieyi turned off the fire .

...I don't have a rice cooker, so it's okay, right?

Cheng Jieyi took two small bowls, put some in them and handed them to Chunlei.

"See if this works."

Chunlei scooped up the snow-white rice grains with a small spoon. It was different from the black soup that ordinary people eat. It tasted sweet, fragrant and soft.

It turns out that rabbit snacks are so delicious.

This thought flashed through Chunlei's mind, but then he smiled and helped Cheng Jieyi carry the pot to the dining room.

It should be said that this person made the rabbit's snacks delicious.

When eating the long-lost hot porridge, the corners of Cheng Jieyi's eyes were slightly moist.

Before coming to this plane, he never thought that the food he could eat was so precious.

Thinking of the high-end restaurants Xiaotu'a took him to, Cheng Jieyi's head seemed to be dizzy again.

Ah... In addition to white porridge, it would be great if there are some porridge side dishes.

Crisp pickled pickled melon, pickled mustard made from the tenderest part of the vegetable heart, shredded potato with vinegar, or preserved egg tofu...

Unfortunately neither.

Cheng Jie drank porridge and scrambled eggs with onions in a ruthless manner, and finally relieved his craving for a while.

Chunlei was still eating, the white porridge in the deep pot had already been sucked into Cheng Jieyi's stomach when Cheng Jieyi nodded in agreement.

After Chunlei finished eating, Cheng Jieyi rested his chin with one hand and repeated the previous question.

"Is there any way to make people eat whatever they want?"

Chunlei thought for a while, her ruby-like eyes sparkled, and she asked Cheng Jie what she meant.

"Why do you want to tell others about your precious recipes and delicacies?"

"Because... I'm tired of cooking by myself," Cheng Jieyi looked at Chunlei's astonished expression, and couldn't help laughing, "In the final analysis, it's because I think eating delicious food should be everyone's daily life, not a special case. "

After Chunlei finished listening, she stood up slowly, enduring the turmoil in her heart.

"Now some people are trying to change the rules of the world. Have you ever heard of the 'law of fairness'?"

Of course, Cheng Jieyi didn't know, but from Chunlei, he knew that there are terrible gourmet aristocrats who don't allow others to eat good things, and there are also "fair law" organizations that are dedicated to restoring the world's diet to a fair and balanced state.

Originally, if Cheng Jieyi hadn't come before this person, he would have passionately written a thousand-word long commentary about what the author was doing, and would have created some more evil villains when he saw which Long Aotian novel these conflicting relationships appeared in!

After coming here and enduring nearly twenty hours of fasting with nothing to eat, Cheng Jieyi immediately wanted to sign up to join this organization.

"People's intelligence is 90.00% the same, no one knows how to cook, and everyone else doesn't."

"Therefore... it can only be that those in power are not allowed to know."

"Then for tens of thousands of years, is it true that there are people who have been growing ingredients but don't know how to cook them?"

"You will know. Trying is human instinct, but the methods to make food delicious are still unknown."

While talking, Chunlei led Cheng Jieyi to the small garden behind the bungalow. He seemed to know that Cheng Jieyi was not used to drinking any drinks here, so he just took out cold drinking water from the kitchen and poured it into two transparent glasses. inside.

The two sat on a bench in the garden, watching the snow-white-winged birds fluttering in the sky.

"Because as soon as someone starts sharing, or posting a recipe, they're going to be snatched away, or have their memory wiped, or be executed on the spot."

"There are still some people who try their best to make some ridiculous recipes and distribute them to various planets."

"Don't you want to try many possibilities? Then try these. If you try a lot, it's like a fish locked in a glass tank. The more times it hits an invisible barrier, it gradually accepts its fate."

"Businessmen began to produce tasteless nutritional supplements as early as 20 years ago. When the appetite starts to be deprived, then what else is there to be deprived of?"

"Curiosity, freedom to explore, sex/desire, or... the right to think?"

Chunlei drank the water in the glass, but saw Cheng Jieyi looking him up and down.That gaze was soft and gentle, like a feather caressing his heart.

"You seem to understand it very well. You are obviously a homeless long-term worker, but in the end you say something that seems...you can only say it from the standpoint of a gourmet aristocrat."

Chunlei smiled after hearing this.

"Ah, I'm a gourmet aristocrat, do you regret hiring me?"

Cheng Jieyi didn't say whether he regretted it or not, he didn't seem to care at all, and waved towards Chunlei.

"Go into the kitchen and chop vegetables...According to you, if I broadcast live, I will be banned, and then the arresters will come, right? Is there any other way?"

Chunlei stood up obediently and followed Cheng Jieyi into the door.

"If you become a member of the 'fair law', they have a platform where you can live freely and share recipes."

"How to join?" Cheng Jieyi raised his eyebrows.

"A dish that can warm the stomach of those who are attracted by the law."

After Chunlei finished speaking, Cheng Jieyi opened those rich seasoning boxes in great annoyance.

Each box has the name of the seasoning on it.

"I think I may run into them soon. Before that, I'd better try the taste of these seasonings... What does this drake's nails smell like..."

Cheng Jie thought, after entering the law, it's not enough just to have a sharing platform.

He took another look at the difficulty score in the system just now, and it is only possible to get such astronomical points if he wants to overthrow the gourmet nobles of this world.

[Dreammakers should not stand on the cusp of the storm, but should follow the torrent of the times and become the hand that fuels the flames. 】

The textbooks of dreamers always say the same thing with thousands of exhortations.

Cheng Jieyi looked at the cool breeze blowing outside the window, and thought that maybe he had come at the right time.

The wind of reversal has blown.

When Cheng Jieyi and Chunlei were trying the flavors of those seasonings, Cheng Jieyi's watch rang.

That was a message from Xiaotu Ayi.

【Ah Yi: Good afternoon!how is your day! 】

【Jiang Li: Very good. 】

【Ah Yi: That's good. I'm still worried that you won't have enough to eat, so I want to invite you to dinner! 】

Cheng Jieyi could imagine that little brown rabbit flicking its ears and loving to eat scary things.

No... it shouldn't.

[Jiang Li: If you don't mind, can you come to my house for dinner tonight? 】

【Ah Yi: Hi?Do you play video games while eating takeaway? 】

【Jiang Li: No... I'll cook a little. 】

[Ah Yi:! ! ! ! ! !You are actually a cook!No wonder I don’t like to eat outside food!Then I will arrive on time at six o'clock tonight, and I will look forward to it! 】

Cheng Jieyi hung up the communication and signaled to Chunlei next to him.

"I'm entertaining friends tonight."

"friend".

This vocabulary is a bit far away for Chunlei.

The most recent time was about 15 years ago, Chunlei met the children of civilians on the streets of Capital Star.The boy was very cheerful, chubby and always optimistic.

He and Chunlei met when they were playing Gacha.

At that time, Chunlei spent almost [-] yuan and didn't get the figure he wanted, but the little fat man just used scattered coins to get the limited edition.

"Can you give me that wolf cavalry?" Chunlei handed out a stack of money to the little fat man.

The little fat man looked at the pile of money, then pinned the wolf cavalry soldier to the elastic belt on his back, and beat Chunlei's face without saying a word!

"Your uncle! Can money buy this!"

Two children scuffled in a gashapon shop on the street, but the shop manager didn't care.It was normal for little boys to fight, and they went home by dinner time.

But before supper time the two little boys made up, crying.

The main thing is that no one can beat anyone.

"Then can I play with your wolf cavalry for a while next time?"

"Okay."

The two little boys were sobbing and chatting, and every day since then they got together and showed off their hand-made models to each other.

Chunlei felt that this little fat man had a good personality, so he could be a friend with some reluctance.

Until one day the little fat man sneakily said that he wanted to invite Chunlei to eat snacks.

"I secretly took it out while my mother was taking a nap. You should cherish it!"

Chunlei has no interest. Since he was sensible, the food at home has grown from the plate, but if there is an extra meal, he can eat a little.

Then... Chunlei saw the little fat man open a beautifully decorated box, and the things inside made Chunlei want to spit it out on the spot.

Those were two pieces of candied mangoes that had been stored for an unknown amount of time. The originally beautiful orange-yellow surface had turned into black and blue, and only a little bit of orange-yellow color could be vaguely seen under the thick green-black skin.

The aroma that was supposed to be as sweet as honey was now mixed with the sour smell of rotting waste water. Some ants and insects rushed over after hearing the news, and the little fat man hurriedly closed the lid.

"Let's eat some secretly and return it! Mom said, this is the legendary thing called candied fruit! It's been in our refrigerated safe for several years!"

Chunlei stood up, trying to throw away the box in the little fat man's hand.

"That's rubbish! It's not for people to eat! It's better for you to take nutritional supplements than this! Are you sick!!!"

The little fat man blushed with anger and had a thick neck.

"You only eat garbage! If you have the ability, don't come here tomorrow! You don't know such a good thing!"

"Just wait, I'll show you something you can eat tomorrow! Cure your brain!"

Chunlei was so angry that he kicked the wall, turned around and left without saying a word.

The little fat man behind him shouted at the top of his voice.

"If you don't come, I will be your father—"

Chunlei really packed the cakes and candies at home the next day, and happily went to the gastronomy shop, only to see circle after circle of people around the gastronomy shop.

A fire broke out in that shop and it is still being put out.

"The store manager seems to be in there too, saying that a little fat man left behind a handicraft and wants to go in to get it..."

"None of them came out?!"

"No……"

……

There were regrettable and noisy voices in the crowd, and the scene was smoky and hot, but Chun Lei carried the box in her hand into the ice cellar.

"Little Master."

A middle-aged man in a butler's tuxedo stood behind Chunlei at some point. He bent down respectfully and took the food box in Chunlei's hand.

"These people are poor people. You gave him something that shouldn't be eaten today. If they still want it, where will they get it? You won't be like keeping a pet... keep supporting him, right?"

The butler had a perfect smile on his face, and he told the young Chunlei the rules of the world.

"These people are like fish in the water. They can survive by eating a little dust or feces every day. You shouldn't associate with them."

"Master and Madam have already said, please go back to the central area of ​​the capital today, and don't get along with those people anymore."

The butler stretched out his hand towards Chunlei, and the ten-year-old child directly waved the butler's hand open.

The white-haired and red-eyed child had already begun to take the shape of a handsome and flawless child.

Chunlei stood on the bright yellow scene, like a cold moon hanging upside down.

"I remember that you were originally one of these people."

"From now on, I invite you to return to them," Chunlei took the box in the housekeeper's hand, and walked back with the other servants, "Eat feces for a lifetime."

No matter how much the butler begged and cried behind him, Chunlei never looked back.

He began to feel that there was something wrong with the world.

It might have broken somewhere long ago, which made him... so painful.

……

Now, 15 years later, Cheng Jieyi is easily preparing dinner for his little rabbit friend in the kitchen without any worries.

"What if you let others know that you have a recipe because of the friends you invited? Those eagle dogs employed by the gourmet nobles may come to you tonight."

Chun Lei supported the cupboard with one hand, covering Cheng Jieyi completely.

Cheng Jieyi just tasted some weird red seasoning, a bit like saffron, he couldn't help sticking out his tongue, and said nonchalantly.

"Oh... I just run fast."

Cheng Jieyi looked up at Chunlei, this raise made their distance suddenly very close, Chunlei's lips almost touched the tip of Cheng Jieyi's nose.

This is a distance where the tears of spring can be sipped on red lips if you press down a little bit.

Outside the window, cicadas and birds chirped, as if clamoring for the heat of the city during the day.

There are two handsome people in the room with ambiguous postures, which seems very suitable for something to happen.

But Cheng Jieyi stood up slowly and pointed to the refrigerator beside him.

"Get out that red umbelliferae, I'm going to get ready."

Chunlei looked at Cheng Jieyi's expressionless face, and knew that when he said he wanted to treat guests, he meant to treat them.

The rules of this world have nothing to do with him, he just wants his friends to eat delicious food without any fear.

Just like a flower growing on a cliff, whether it is a strong wind or a cold snow, it stretches out its beautiful branches and leaves and takes root there firmly.

That's why the flowers of the kaolin attract people to climb, and the harder the prey, the more difficult the prey, attracts the hunter.

Chunlei honestly took out the ingredients and processed them according to Cheng Jieyi's requirements.

It's just that Cheng Jieyi and Chunlei were seriously preparing here, and they didn't expect that when Ah Yi's arrival tonight would bring much shock.
