Leisurely reborn

Zhou Yanzhi glanced at Chen Youran with a half-smile, which simply added fuel to the fire.

"Stop seducing me." Chen Youran said angrily.

"Will you take the bait?" Zhou Yanzhi's eyes were clear and indifferent, with a relaxed look.

Chen Youran couldn't help but swallowed, gritted her teeth, "Eat first."

Zhou Yanzhi pursed his lips and smiled, letting Chen Youran pull his wrist and walk out.Neither of them mentioned anything else, but it doesn't mean that there is no need for a communication.

During the meal, the Chen family's parents were in a very good mood.He greeted Zhou Yanzhi very warmly. After all, it was the New Year's Eve. He came all the way, just like another son.

After eating, Chen Guoan and Lin Lan went to visit, and Chen Minhui took Chen Youran and Zhou Yanzhi to Taoyuan Base.

Today is the first day of the new year, the first day of the new millennium, and the Taoyuan base held a fun party.

There is no need for any theater troupe, just set up a movie curtain and show movies. This is one of the tools prepared by the company for employees to entertain, and now it is used directly.

Then, the left-behind employees and the aborigines of the Taoyuan base will have a big meal for a day.

Women are making dumplings while watching a movie, men are packing chicken, duck and fish, and children are running around to collect firewood for burning.

A large pot was set up on the open space, and the whole chicken, duck, and pork and beef cut into large pieces were thrown into it and boiled over high heat.There were people packing other side dishes and getting people to drink.

There are also older people who just sit and play cards, chat and drink tea.

Such hustle and bustle is called New Year's Eve.

Once here, Chen Youran couldn't help being happy.For example, in Shilihe Village, the New Year's atmosphere is a bit weak now.

Every household is a small villa, but it also separates everyone, and visiting neighbors is not as convenient as before.And during the Spring Festival, there is less time for everyone to sit together, eat and chat.

Of course, another reason is that everyone has become rich. It is no longer the same as before. The whole village can watch TV together, and anyone can only buy a few feet of cloth to make clothes during the New Year. Fish and meat, I dare not even think about it on weekdays.

Now, the wealthy Shilihe Village can easily allow all villagers to eat meat every day, buy many new clothes every year, and every household is equipped with a color TV, each of which is getting bigger and bigger, and some even have computers.

Things that could only be expected during the Chinese New Year in the past can now be obtained in every ordinary day, so there is no such expectation for the Chinese New Year.

As for the Taoyuan Base, the situation in Shilihe Village is similar, but now it is difficult to gather all the people in Shilihe Village to have a New Year's Eve dinner together like before.

But here at the Taoyuan base, yes.

So many people are lively and lively together, so it feels like the New Year.

"Remember the first time you celebrated the New Year in our village?"

As soon as she arrived at the Taoyuan base, Chen Minhui left Chen Youran and Zhou Yanzhi behind, and went to talk to the left-behind employees.Chen Youran smiled and turned to look at Zhou Yanzhi.

Zhou Yanzhi nodded: "I remember. That time you fried Maoxuewang and Taste Duck."

Chen Youran raised her eyebrows: "Remember so clearly?"

"Yeah." Zhou Yanzhi glanced at Chen Youran with deep meaning, "I haven't had it for a long time."

"..." Chen Youran thought for a while, and it seemed to be true.

There are many things this year, except that during the Spring Festival last year, he cooked a New Year’s Eve dinner in City B, and Zhou Yanzhi tasted his cooking skills. Since then, Zhou Yanzhi has never eaten him again for a whole year. do the dishes.

"Order whatever you want to eat today!" Chen Youran was so proud.

Zhou Yanzhi smiled: "It's still the same."

"Mao Xuewang and Flavored Duck? All right. Wait, it will be ready soon." Chen Youran said, dragging Zhou Yanzhi to the temporary stove.

After talking to a few men who cook, everyone booed immediately.

Chen Youran simply tapped the bottom of the stainless steel pot with a spoon, just like hitting a gong.

"Folks, today I will show you something, and I promise you will have a second bite if you want to eat it, how about it?"

"Good!" Everyone applauded and booed.

"Okay, everyone is waiting, I will turn my face on anyone who doesn't reward me in a while." Chen Youran smiled deliberately, and then put on the posture of a chef. That look is as funny as it needs to be.

Zhou Yanzhi couldn't help it, and narrowed his eyes with a smile.

"Now is the time for the magic chef to show his talents. Don't change the channel too much, and the miracle will appear immediately!"

"Hahaha--"

The children also gathered around, watching Chen Youran play tricks as if watching a trick.

……

Skillful technique, every step is familiar by heart, and the movements are like flowing clouds and flowing water.I have to say that even after seeing it so many times, Zhou Yanzhi still thinks that Chen Youran's cooking is the most beautiful.No chef can compare to him.

This may also be Xi Shi in the eye of the beholder.

Soon, plates of Maoxuewang and Flavored Duck came out of the pan. When greedy children scrambled to help serve the plate, they would sneak a piece of it, and often their tongues would blister and refuse to spit it out.

In the last two sets, someone came to serve them again, and Chen Youran hurriedly protected them: "You all have so many and it's not enough, these two sets are mine!"

After finishing speaking, Chen Youran put the two dishes on the tray and handed them to Zhou Yanzhi: "Take them away quickly, or you won't even be able to eat the bones later."

The two chose a table on the edge, sat down, and tasted slowly.

"How does it taste?" Chen Youran smiled, "Is it as delicious as it was eight years ago?"

Zhou Yanzhi couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, he choked a mouthful of the sauce into his trachea, and suddenly there was an earth-shattering cough.

Chen Youran quickly stretched out her hand to pat him on the back: "Hey, what about it, even if the food I cook is delicious, you don't have to grab it so much. If you want to eat it, I'll just cook it for you every day, making you look like a greedy cat. "

Zhou Yanzhi glared at him, but said nothing.

"Whether it's delicious or not, tell me."

"good to eat."

Chen Youran is complete.

It's not enough to just eat vegetables, Chen Youran went to serve two more bowls of dumplings, the two of them ate and drank enough, and began to wander around the base.

Seeing that it was still early, Chen Youran said, "Do you want to go climbing?"

"it is good."

Now there is already a pretty good road at the matsutake planting base. Although it is still only by walking, the road is not as difficult as it used to be.

The two chatted casually as they walked.

Finally, it was inevitable to talk about Hua Chengfeng.

"The things on the floppy disk, after you gave it to me, they were quickly cracked," Zhou Yanzhi said.

Chen Youran was a little surprised, "So fast?"

"Well. The storage capacity of the floppy disk is quite large, and it is not made in China. You should help him get it. It's just that he uses the encryption method he learned in the department before. People who are not familiar with it may not understand it, but in the In the hands of the people in their department, it can be cracked very quickly. I think this should be the reason why he chose the floppy disk." Zhou Yanzhi said.

Chen Youran nodded.

"Actually, fourth brother knew that he was still alive." Zhou Yanzhi hesitated for a while, and finally said.

"What?" Chen Youran was a little surprised, "Then how could the fourth brother..."

"The fourth brother only found out that Hua Chengfeng was still alive when he went on a mission after the Spring Festival this year. At that time, Hua Chengfeng was already in that gang. Originally, the fourth brother was very angry, but when the fourth brother was about to attack, The fourth brother discovered that Hua Chengfeng was not with that group of people doing evil together. He clearly wrote down the drug trafficking routes of the group, and also clearly remembered some seemingly normal but very problematic cottages in the middle. He put these things Give it to the fourth brother."

Zhou Yanzhi's words surprised Chen Youran, "You mean to say that he has already been in touch with fourth brother?"

"Correct."

Chen Youran really had mixed feelings in her heart, that kind of feeling was completely indescribable.

Zhou Yanzhi glanced at Chen Youran: "Hua Chengfeng never mentioned you. And the fourth brother asked him where he was and what he did before, but he didn't say anything."

Chen Youran bit her lip and said nothing.

"You Ran, you were the one who saved Hua Chengfeng, right? When Hua Chengfeng hijacked you in Taoyuan, you didn't see Hua Chengfeng clearly as people know, did you?"

"Yes." Chen Youran had nothing to hide, Hua Chengfeng was already dead, so there was nothing else to say.

"Then what happened later? I checked with my fourth brother about Hua Chengfeng's affairs. Two of the beasts that killed his sister suffered retribution half a year later, while the other two were already dead last year. Dead." Zhou Yanzhi said, "They died normally and as they should. There is no trace of accident."

Chen Youran shrugged: "You want to ask me, who killed them?"

"..." Zhou Yanzhi didn't say a word, but looked at Chen Youran indifferently.

"Actually, you already know, why bother to ask me again? Or, if you don't believe me, you want to hear a negative answer from me? Then I'm sorry, I can't give it. Regarding the things I have done, I never Regret." Chen Youran said lightly.

Zhou Yanzhi's lips were directly pursed into a line.
