Eat and heal

Everyone on the barrage was laughing, thinking that Zhou Ge's careful handling of meat cuts looked like a clumsy self, and couldn't help but tease Zhou Ge.

-Ever since I watched this show, I found that brother Zhou is not omnipotent

-Brother Zhou sliced ​​the meat too thick!

- It would be nice to be able to cut into slices, don't ask too much of Zhou Ge

- I'm going to die laughing at Meng Lan's expression, I'm nervous, I'm afraid that Zhou Ge will cut him

- I can understand Meng Lan's mood, watching others use knives in horror, wishing to do it myself

- like me and my mother

-A true portrayal of a kitchen novice

- Uh, don't concentrate on cooking, let's chat!

Fortunately, although Zhou Ge dawdled, his cautious nature was still there, and he finally put aside a plate of pork belly that was cut evenly.

"What's next?" he asked enthusiastically.

Meng Lan didn't deliberately instruct him in the order of handling the ingredients, just follow him.At this time, I only looked at him and reminded: "Go and wash your hands first."

Zhou Ge used all the oil from the pork belly in his hands. He was really uncomfortable, and he was afraid of affecting the processing of the next ingredients, so he went to the bathroom to wash his hands.

Meng Lan helped him clean the knife and chopping board.

"Can you crack eggs?" Meng Lan asked Zhou Ge who had come back with two eggs in a bowl.

"I'm not so stupid, okay?" Zhou Ge was annoyed. He cracked an egg, stirred it up with chopsticks, and ordered Meng Lan, "You, cut some green onion."

Meng Lan followed good advice and finally made a move.

Zhou Ge added a little salt to the egg mixture.

"When I was young, the only thing I could get used to was fried rice with eggs." Zhou Ge was still stirring the egg liquid and said with a smile, "This is also the only choice other than instant noodles when I have no one at home."

Meng Lan thought for a while and said, "The first dish I learned when I was a child was cold cucumber. My grandma was afraid that I would be burned by oil and fire, so she only asked me to make some cold dishes."

Zhou Ge changed the subject: "Talk about your experience? I don't think I have heard you talk about it carefully."

Meng Lan didn't want to talk too much about family affairs in the program, but this is Zhou Ge's program, so he was willing to make some concessions, so he said: "My parents are busy with work and often have to travel, so I followed my grandparents and grandparents when I was young. My grandma grew up. My parents came to see me when they were at home, stayed with me for a few days, and then left again when they got busy, so I didn’t know that my family actually had another house when I was young.”

Meng Lan smiled, because of her ignorance when she was young.

"Later, my parents' jobs stabilized and they didn't travel much, so they took me home and lived together."

Meng Lan's family background is not good, her grandparents are uneducated, and her grandparents only have a junior high school education. They each have several children. They live in their own way from all walks of life.Meng Lan's parents were considered to be of that generation, who came out of the countryside and got along well in the city, at least they could take the elderly out of the countryside to live.Meng Lan remembered that most of her uncles and aunts were still in the countryside, and a few who got along well were also scattered in other cities.Mom and Dad must be strong and capable, work hard, and of course ignore the son.At that time, the country implemented family planning, and Meng Lan was the only child and was brought up by his grandma. In fact, he had no arrogance, and his personality was very honest. He didn't know that he could actually go to a better school with his family background.

When he lived with his parents again and entered a high school in the city, he realized that the relaxed and comfortable life had gone forever.With average grades, difficult homework, and mediocre exams, he didn't even have the energy to learn an extra-curricular skill.Even if his parents have the financial ability to support him in learning a specialty and taking cram schools, he doesn't have the energy anymore.

In the eyes of the teachers at that time, Meng Lan belonged to the kind of student who worked hard but failed to reach the top batch of grades. The teachers liked him because he was good-looking, well-behaved and sensible, and he had given him a lot. The opportunity to appear as a student representative, receive guests, and lead the team by raising the flag, but Meng Lan was reticent and shy, so she refused all of them.

Meng Lang doesn't have much extracurricular life either. After his parents began to pay attention to his education, he seldom went out to play. Don't worry, but also a little distressed.

It can be said that, except for that eye-catching and beautiful face, Meng Lan has nothing outstanding in other aspects since she was a child.Coupled with his dull personality and seldom having fun with others, he has become a legend that everyone in the school knows but no one understands.

Later, Meng Lan studied step by step, and met Bole when he was traveling abroad by chance.It can be said that going abroad to work early was the boldest decision ever made by Meng Lan's family and himself.

"I don't think I'm very talented, so hard work is indispensable." Meng Lan skipped some details, and when he talked about it, he also had some personal experience, "The environment abroad is completely different from that in China. When I went there, I found that The young people there...everyone seemed to have something special, and they were very open to showing and improving themselves, good or bad. So I also tried to relax and show myself. There was a family I was staying with A boy studying in a prestigious school, he seldom appears at home, because he spends most of his time in class, doing research, and going to the library for self-study. Sometimes I come back from work very late, and I can still see him doing homework in the living room. "

Meng Lan suddenly mentioned this, which caught people off guard.

"He is a few years older than me, very serious, and rarely talks to me, but he told me that in a place where geniuses gather, geniuses don't necessarily work hard, but among ordinary people, even if you are so ordinary that you can't be ordinary, You can also perform better than other ordinary people through diligence and hard work."

"This has become my work and life since then... um...is it a motto?" Meng Lan smiled, "In short, I don't think I'm good at anything else, but I do my job well and try not to bring trouble to everyone. Troubled, I can still do it."

Zhou Ge never thought that Meng Lan would experience such a thing.He has already prepared the rest of the ingredients, just waiting to be put into the pot.

Meng Lan glanced at the progress, and suggested: "Let's make fried rice with eggs first? This will save you from washing the pot once."

Zhou Ge felt that such a small kitchen tip had appeared again, so he smiled lightly, and he was kind.

He doesn't need Meng Lan's instructions to make egg fried rice. He heats the pan with cold oil, pours in the egg liquid, and when the egg liquid is half solidified, he slides it with a wooden spatula and breaks it into pieces. When the golden eggs are fried, he gently pushes them aside. Reduce the heat to low, pour in the overnight rice, then slowly crush it and stir fry it with the eggs.

"Use a low heat when crushing the rice." Zhou Ge also shared his own secret, "Otherwise it will easily stick to the pan. Use overnight rice, preferably not the kind of soft rice, so that it can be fried distinct."

He sprinkled chopped green onions into the bowl, added a little salt to taste, and finally turned on the fire, stirring back and forth.

Meng Lan saw that although he didn't touch the handle of the pot very much, but the technique of making fried rice with eggs was indeed not unfamiliar, so she knew that he was not lying when he said he could cook fried rice with eggs.

The egg fried rice came out of the pan smoothly, Zhou Ge poured it into a large porcelain bowl, smelling the aroma of eggs and green onions, Zhou Ge said to himself: "The taste must be very good."

Meng Lan did not hesitate to praise: "It smells so good."

Zhou Ge raised his eyebrows triumphantly, then pinched his apron as if he was facing an enemy, and asked him for help: "Chef Meng, please guide me."

Meng Lan taught him to cook the remaining dishes in the order of vegetarian dishes and then meat dishes.

Even with his guidance, Zhou Ge still made mistakes because of his lack of proficiency. Either he put in the seasoning at the wrong time, or he moved too much, the apron was splashed with a lot of stains, or he put in too much seasoning.

Fortunately, Zhou Ge is not a person who is surprised at first glance. Meng Lan has been watching closely, and the remedy is timely. Finally, a table of dishes is prepared without any danger.

When they put all the dishes on the table, it wasn't just them, the audience off-screen breathed a sigh of relief.

- oh my god it's finally done

- the apron is ruined, really

- The appearance is actually okay...

- i think the clams must be salty

- i call for egg fried rice

- How did brother Zhou manage to make mistakes and still remain calm?

-Meng Lan is so funny when he gets nervous

- I was worried and didn't dare to scold Zhou Ge, Meng Lan was also very helpless

-Why do I think Brother Zhou did it on purpose?

- A new way of flirting?

- I'm more nervous than Meng Lan!

- Awwow, finally you can eat

- Progress bar warning

- at least it looks good

- I think the most successful dish is soup

-Hahahahaha Brother Zhou, don't you want to lose face?

Meng Lan helped Zhou Ge arrange the dishes, and then asked, "Zhou Ge, you really don't seem to cook much."

Zhou Ge waved his hand: "No chance."

He talks about his upbringing.

Zhou Ge's family conditions are superior, and his parents' education level is also high, so Zhou Ge has never experienced any hardship since he was a child. He is a very common "urban boy". He attends interest classes, makes up lessons, and participates in competitions. children".However, he is not that kind of genius, but compared with his peers, he appears calmer and more mature, his thinking mode is not fixed, and he is smarter and smarter.

His parents' work is not easy, but they have always taken care of their children, so they have a very close relationship with Zhou Ge.Before Zhou Ge entered high school, his family always had a nanny, who did all the housework and cooking.At that time, there were not many people in their city who had the awareness of hiring nannies, and the wages of nannies were not high. Most of them were hardworking and capable rural women, divorced or widowed, who came to the city to make a living.Therefore, with his family's conditions, there is actually no pressure to afford the expenses of a nanny.The two houses on the first floor of his house are their properties. The family lives in one house, and the nanny lives in one house. Occasionally, when relatives come, they can also live in the house where the nanny lives temporarily.

So not only Zhou Ge, but also his parents have no talent for housework and cooking.

Later, when Zhou Ge entered high school, Ms. Li also took a break from work and attended several parent-teacher meetings. She suddenly became very responsible as a mother, and she paid special attention to Zhou Ge's study and life.Enroll her son in cram school, buy exercise books, buy various nutritional products... In short, she learns what other parents do, but Zhou Ge and his son are so helpless and funny.

Also learned how to cook.

However, Ms. Li's cooking skills... Zhou Ge felt that, except for a few dishes, he was more willing to order takeaway.
