I open a convenience store in the tribe
Chapter 17
After the seafood soup was cooked, Xu Xicai suddenly remembered that he has garlic now.Xu Xi had always wanted to eat garlic prawns before, but Xu Xi's convenience store didn't have any fresh vegetables, and Qi Mu and the others didn't know that garlic is a medicinal herb, so Xu Xi hasn't eaten it yet.
It's just that Xu Xi looked at all the shrimps that were thrown into the pot and boiled into seafood soup, so he helped his forehead helplessly. "How could I have forgotten this crop? If I knew it, I would save some shrimps to make garlic shrimps."
"Forget it, anyway, there is already garlic now, and it won't be too late to ask Qi Mu and the others to help catch some shrimps tomorrow." After muttering to himself, Xu Xi still planned to peel a head of garlic and put it in the seafood soup. taste.
It's just that just after peeling off a small flap, the fingernails hurt so much.In desperation, Xu Xi had no choice but to put the whole head of garlic on the chopping board and crush the garlic vigorously with a large kitchen knife.
However, the head of garlic from the Orcs was already big, so Xu Xi put the whole garlic on the chopping board for shooting without breaking it open.It's not so easy to shoot garlic in one shot, Xu Xi looks like a war when he shoots a head of garlic, the movement is not small.
There were banging sounds from the kitchen from time to time, and Ming Yuan who was sitting in the room was frightened when he heard it, for fear that Xu Xi would accidentally hurt himself.Ming Yuan, who was more and more worried, couldn't help but sneak a look at the kitchen door.
After discovering that Xu Xi was just shooting the fruit, he smiled helplessly.I thought to myself: If such a big fruit is not broken open first and divided into small petals, how could it be so easy to succeed with Xu Xi's strength.
Knowing that there would be no danger, Mingyuan didn't go in and give advice, for fear of hurting Xu Xi's self-esteem.Anyway, as long as Xu Xi himself is fine, he has no objection to tormenting Mingyuan however he wants.
Xu Xi, whose wrist was numb from the shock, went through a fight?Finally smashed the garlic.The crushed garlic scalp was easily picked out. Xu Xi casually cut the crushed garlic a few times with a kitchen knife and threw it all into the seafood soup.
Anyway, Xu Xi only has one cooking secret, and that is to throw it into the pot and stew it randomly.
After finishing two dishes and one soup, Xu Xi was about to go to the house to chat with Ming Yuan, so as not to be too boring while waiting.As a result, as soon as Xu Xi turned around, he saw Ming Yuan standing at the door of the kitchen, looking at him with affectionate eyes.Xu Xi only felt that his heartbeat missed a beat, and he didn't know whether he was mostly frightened or excited.
No matter how dull Xu Xi is, he still knows that Mingyuan may be interesting to him, and it must be much more than him.Xu Xi didn't reject Mingyuan in the first place, and even thought carefully, so after learning that Mingyuan might be interested in him, he was more happy than troubled.
It's just that Xu Xi didn't show it on his face.Because Xu Xi is a very realistic person, even if he has a little interest in Ming Yuan, he still wants to make a long-term plan.Because he didn't want to make a decision for the rest of his life because of impulsiveness, in case they found out later that they couldn't get along, that would be the worst and most irresponsible thing.
Anyway, Xu Xi thought that Mingyuan lived in the small wooden house by the Yanshi Lake, so he could use garlic, ginger and other things as an excuse in the future, or he could go to Mingyuan to find Mingyuan himself.After getting along, it is not too late to make sure that they are suitable for each other.
Thanks to the strength of the thorn pork and mustard, the stewed mustard pork is quite good without Xu Xi's processing.As for the green beef, not to mention, the braised meat ingredients are all well prepared, and it is difficult to taste bad.It’s just that pork with pickled vegetables and stewed beef have a common problem, that is, the meat pieces are of different sizes, and they are generally thick and large.
Fortunately, Xu Xi has a thick skin. As long as the food tastes good, does it matter how it looks?
The seafood soup is as delicious as ever, and the taste is even more delicious after adding more garlic.Seafood soup served with steaming rice, chunks of braised beef that is very tasty, and soft stewed mustard pork with mustard flavor. Leaving aside the knife skills, Xu Xi shamelessly praised his cooking skills full marks.
After seeing Mingyuan who ate deliciously again, Xu Xi's heart was even more satisfied.At this moment, Xu Xi finally understood the thoughts of an excellent chef.
It turns out that it is such a joyful thing to watch other people eat so deliciously what they have made.It's just that although I was very happy when I invited An Sheng and the others to dinner, they were not as satisfied as they are now.
Maybe it's because people are different?
"Is it tasty?"
Originally, Mingyuan was thinking of cheering Xu Xi even if it wasn't delicious.It turns out that not only the meat is delicious, but also the pincer fish and big worms in the salt rock lake are so delicious.
Although Mingyuan had seen Xu Xi and the others eat these things at the edge of Salt Stone Lake before, but because there were too many things during this time, he ate Xu Xi's own food before he had time to try it.
"It's delicious, you did a great job."
Mingyuan's support largely pleased Xu Xi.
"Like it?"
Xu Xi realized from Ming Yuan's surprised expression that what he said was ambiguous, but when he was about to explain, Ming Yuan put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hand, looked at Xu Xi affectionately and seriously and said, "I like it."
Those eyes are really beautiful, especially when looking at you with affection, no one can resist, at least Xu Xi's heart has not been trained to the point of being unmoved.
Xu Xi, who was suddenly teased, was a little at a loss, and hurriedly took a sip of the soup in the bowl to cover up her beating heart that was teased.
Unexpectedly, people can't be judged by their appearance. Before, Xu Xi thought that Ming Yuan had a foolish heart under his tough appearance, like a fool who was easy to bully.In the end, I didn't expect that the more we got along, the more I realized that Ming Yuan was not only not stupefied, but also a little provocative.
After Xu Xi was full, Ming Yuan wrapped up all the remaining meals, and Ming Yuan rushed to clean up the table and dishes.Xu Xi was also happy to sneak in, and went directly into the house to pack up the presents that Mingyuan was going to take back.
First of all, there must be a lack of salt. Mingyuan was brought back from the market today by Xu Xi, and he didn't buy anything at all.Xu Xi thought for a while and only took a jar of salt. It wasn't that Xu Xi was reluctant, but that Ming Yuan was afraid of too much and refused to take it. Second, it was naturally Xu Xi's little selfishness, and he could just use salt for Ming Yuan. Far from an excuse to come to the door.
In addition to salt, Xu Xi thought that Mingyuan liked Laoganma chili sauce when he was eating, so he bought a bottle of chili sauce from a convenience store for eight copper dollars, and skillfully poured the chili sauce into a special small clay pot Pack it up.
In addition to chili sauce, chili powder, cumin powder, salt and pepper powder, etc. are also packed in several cans.After finishing it, Xu Xi bought five packs of spicy beef jerky for ninety copper dollars from the convenience store.
Meat jerky is very expensive in convenience stores, but orcs are the least short of meat, so even after Xu Xi's shop opens, it is impossible to sell these beef jerky, he just plans to buy it himself Satisfy hunger.
Today I saved a lot of money, and found the garlic I was longing for, and I bought five packs of the beef jerky that I was usually reluctant to buy, and put them all in oil paper bags to give to Mingyuan.
After putting all these things into a small animal skin bag, Xu Xi directly carried the animal skin bag to the living room.And Mingyuan had already cleaned the table, bowls and chopsticks, and was sitting obediently waiting for Xu Xi.
Xu Xi's heart was moved by the feeling that someone was waiting, and the eyes he looked at Ming Yuan became more gentle involuntarily.The two outstanding young people stared at each other deeply, even if they didn't talk, the atmosphere was very good.
It's just that it's getting dark outside, and there are differences between males and females. It's a hooligan to let Mingyuan stay at home when there is no definite relationship and the other party is necessary. The irresponsible behavior will also make Mingyuan, who is already in a difficult situation, even worse. Be despised by people.
Even though he was reluctant to break the beautiful atmosphere, Xu Xi still pretended to cough a few times and broke the silence. "Mingyuan, it's getting late, and it's too unsafe to go back later, so I won't keep you any longer."
Although Mingyuan felt that time passed too fast, which was a pity, he didn't show it.After all, strictly speaking, they only met for the second time. If the progress is too fast, Mingyuan is also worried that Xu Xi will feel that he is too aggressive and scare people away.Little did he know that his thoughts had already been betrayed by those beautiful eyes.
"I saw that you liked my chili sauce just now, so I packed a can for you. There are also some spicy dried meat and various barbecue powder. You can take it back and try it."
"By the way, besides that, I also packed a jar of salt for you. This jar of salt is refined by myself. People in the tribe say it's okay after using it. If you don't mind it, take it back and use it. .”
For Xu Xi to notice that he likes spicy food, Mingyuan felt sweet in his heart.Because it was as if he discovered through a short observation that Xu Xi likes to eat seafood, and the taste is salty, Xu Xi also found out that he still likes such a special taste even though it was the first time he ate such a special taste because he paid attention to himself.
How can Mingyuan not feel happy to be cared and paid attention to by the person he likes.In addition, besides the chili sauce, Xu Xi prepared so many things, and there was such a precious salt in it, how could Mingyuan dislike it.
With so many things, it stands to reason that Yuan should refuse, not accept.But Mingyuan knew very well in his heart that Xu Xi prepared these things for himself, and he wanted them very much, and he didn't want to do anything against his will, so Mingyuan obediently accepted them.
"How could you dislike it? It's too late for me to be happy, thank you." Xu Xi, who was going to spend a lot of time trying to persuade him, was slightly stunned when he saw Mingyuan accepting the gift he had specially prepared for him so simply and neatly. He laughed with great satisfaction.
Originally, Xu Xi had a good impression of Mingyuan, so he wanted to give Mingyuan something that the other party might like and was more useful to him.But if Mingyuan keeps splitting up like this every time, Xu Xi will have to try his best to persuade him every time. If things go on like this, Xu Xi will feel very tired, and that bit of goodwill will be easily worn away.
At first, Xu Xi thought that Ming Yuan was a domineering president with good looks, good figure and good eyes, and he was not easy to get along with.Later, when there was a market, I felt that the other party was like a dead-headed and stupid fool.Later, I unexpectedly discovered that the other party was actually not that dazed, and was a bit provocative.Now I find that the other party is actually not that brainless.
In just two short meetings, Xu Xi discovered many different aspects of Ming Yuan. This made Xu Xi, who was simply attracted by those beautiful eyes, feel that Ming Yuan was actually a treasure.
Mingyuan is not only good-looking, good at skills, but also has a very interesting personality. The most important thing is that he is the only one who has discovered this treasure so far.Xu Xi didn't know how to describe this kind of mood, but it was undeniable that Xu Xi felt very happy in his heart.
"When I just placed the bowl, I saw that you have no seafood and meat here. I will send you some meat and seafood tomorrow morning."
In fact, Qi Mu and the others would send some meat and seafood to Xu Xi before noon every day, but Xu Xi didn't say anything.If so, Mingyuan wouldn't have a reason to visit tomorrow. As a good male, Xu Xi would not do such a puzzling thing.
"Okay, but can you bring back some big prawns for me tomorrow? I want to eat garlic prawns." Mingyuan naturally wouldn't refuse Xu Xi's small request, thinking in his heart that since Xu Xi wanted to eat big worms, No, it's prawns, so I'll catch some more tomorrow for Xu Xi to eat.
It's just that Xu Xi looked at all the shrimps that were thrown into the pot and boiled into seafood soup, so he helped his forehead helplessly. "How could I have forgotten this crop? If I knew it, I would save some shrimps to make garlic shrimps."
"Forget it, anyway, there is already garlic now, and it won't be too late to ask Qi Mu and the others to help catch some shrimps tomorrow." After muttering to himself, Xu Xi still planned to peel a head of garlic and put it in the seafood soup. taste.
