Chapter 66 Nameless Dining Hall (16)
Even if Zhao Xu was a fool, he knew that Li Yannian was laughing at him. Furthermore, he was not really a fool, after he groaned twice, he puffed his cheeks and turned his back, unwilling to ignore Li Yannian.
“Alright, alright. I was wrong, alright!?” You turned around and let your sister see it again. You said that you only know how to eat meat and eat seafood all day long, but you didn’t want to eat vegetables. Quick, open your mouth, let me see if this ulcer is serious. ”
Li Yannian said whatever she wanted to say, and managed to coax back to reality. She looked at Zhao Xu’s mouth for a while, and it didn’t seem to be serious. However, she was not a doctor. In her previous life, she had been in good health and had never suffered from an oral ulcer, but this colleague had often mentioned that. There were many causes of illness, but most of them were caused by vitamin B deficiency.
If the system could purchase some medicine, then she would definitely buy some medicine for Zhao Xu. However, the problem was that the system forbade trading prescription drugs. At the moment, the only way was to try her colleague’s trick.
“Xu, sit here and don’t move. I’ll go upstairs to find something for you to treat.”
After settling the good guys down, Li Yannian went upstairs and opened the system interface. She had never bought a canned fruit before and didn’t have any stock in the warehouse, so she could only buy it on the spot. Now that there were more fruits out of season, it wasn’t as easy as it used to be for him to eat a fruit. Coupled with the fact that people were paying more and more attention to healthy eating, the canned food was equivalent to a large amount of preservatives in many people’s eyes. In fact, most of the canned food is the high temperature vacuum sterilization packaging, as long as it is the regular large manufacturers to produce the canned food, generally do not add preservatives. According to what Li Yannian knew, Yang Mei was the only one that was allowed to add preservatives in canned fruits. Nothing else was allowed.
As for the food additives in the cans, it was as if they were not in any other packaged food, and Coca-Cola was half full of pigments and corn syrup.
Unfortunately, the thing that Li Yannian was preparing to buy for Zhao Xu today was a can of Yang Mei with antiseptic inside.
Strangely, although Yangmei had eaten a fruit that had been set on fire by the thieves, her former colleague would always take a canned Yangmei whenever he had an aphrodisiac. He didn’t even need to eat the Yangmei inside, he only needed to drink the soup to get the ulcer. He hoped that the ulcer that Zhao Xu had this time was of the same ancestor as hers.
When it came to canned fruit, Li Yannian suddenly became greedy as well. In the past, the thing she bought the most was canned yellow peach. The yellow peach was truly a wondrous fruit. When eaten directly, it tasted sour and sweet. With a single gulp, one’s teeth would be poured out, as if one had eaten a bowl of plum blossoms. But when she made the cans, Li Yannian ate two big cans as if there was nothing wrong with it, and adding it onto the other beverages, it was perfect for him.
In the yogurt, cut some yellow peach kernels and mix them together. It was very fragrant and refreshing. It was delicious to break a little yellow peach inside of Michaelis. Not to mention the warm yellow peach egg tart, which had just been cooked out of the oven, it would not be a problem for Li Yannian to get rid of a box at once.
With that thought in mind, she began to crave more dishes, such as Orléans Grilled Wings, Chicken Leg Castle, and crispy French fries … When he thought about how he was going to end up like this, Li Yannian quickly retracted his train of thoughts and used “Fruit Time: Yang Mei” as the key word to search the system.
So it turns out that Yang Mei’s canned food did not appear during the fruits, but Li Yannian was not very familiar with the other brands, and seeing that the system recommended them to sell off their goods, she quickly placed an order on a box of six canisters. She then grabbed a few boxes of canned peach and stored them in the warehouse.
Zhao Xu waited downstairs for the time it takes to make a cup of tea. Then, he saw that Li Yannian had already rolled up her sleeves and walked over to the kitchen without saying a word.
She was still wary of him. A haze quickly flashed across Zhao Xu’s lifeless face.
“Xu, come and drink some Yang Mei Soup and try. If there’s no effect, then you can only eat more vegetables.”
While they were talking, Li Yannian had already walked to Zhao Xu’s side with the bowl in his hands. Without waiting for him to clearly see the contents of the bowl, Li Yannian had already brought the bowl close to his mouth, afraid that she would choke on it. Zhao Xu immediately opened his mouth to drink.
It was sweet and quite tasty. Zhao Xu’s eyes brightened. He knew that he wouldn’t need to hold the bowl for him anymore.
Zhao Xu thought, he was not saying, but after he said it, the bowl might not even be his, the little one also liked to eat the sweet.
After a busy morning, in the blink of an eye, it was time to prepare lunch. Li Yannian pulled a chair over for Zhao Xu to sit comfortably behind the stove. She did not dare say anything else, as long as it was related to food, Zhao Xu would understand her words well.
“There’s no meat at our table at noon. Your mouth is already so full, so calm down. At noon, we don’t have any meat at all.”
When Li Yannian said this, the expression on Zhao Xu’s face immediately collapsed, as if she found it extremely interesting. While she was talking about all the dishes, she was still unable to resist Zhao Xu’s gaze attack and fried up a few pieces of Sweet Pepper Chicken.
When all the dishes had been served, the voices of Black Bean and the Mao Dou Brothers came over from outside the door.
“They’re back,” Li Yannian said as she jumped up happily. Black Bean and the others had already pushed open the door and entered the room.
“It smells so good. Sis, what are you cooking this time?” As soon as Mao Dou entered the room, he sniffed the air with an intoxicated expression.
“Hurry and put down the bamboo, wash your hands and eat,” Li Yannian smiled and urged them to eat.
“Oh, there’s chicken at noon. Eh, Sis, what’s this?” Mao Dou had been extremely hungry since he was on the mountain. The two brothers didn’t expect that chopping bamboo would delay them for so long. They didn’t even bring any dry food, so the fragrance of the food was especially alluring.
“That’s a sweet pepper. It’s not spicy. The fried chicken is very delicious. You’ll know after you taste it.”
Hearing her words, Zhao Xu curiously reached out with his chopsticks to pick up a piece of the meat, but when he really wanted to take a bite, he hesitated.
Li Yannian encouraged him. “This is really delicious, and it’s even good for your aphrodisiac. Taste it.”
Unexpectedly, Zhao Xu’s usually dull face revealed a rare look of indifference, which made even half of his chopsticks go forward, as he also started to hesitate.
“It’s really delicious. I’m not lying.”
Zhao Xu looked at Li Yannian in disbelief. In the end, he still chose to close his eyes and put the small piece of sweet pepper into his mouth, carefully tasting it.
“How is it? Delicious, right?” Li Yannian asked him in anticipation.
What answered her was that Zhao Xu spat out the sweet pepper in his mouth with a “Wow” sound.
Mao Dou, who was hesitating on what to say, also started spitting.
Li Yannian:…
Was this really necessary? The sweet peppers were so tasty, but this one or two of them actually didn’t know how to appreciate them. She suddenly felt a sense of loneliness in her life, as if there was a sad song about them.
Everyone’s attention in the room suddenly focused on Black Bean who had yet to taste the sweet pepper.
“Bro, hurry up and try it! It’s obviously delicious!” Dou Dou and Xu Zi are probably too fond of meat and are prejudiced against all kinds of vegetables. I believe you’re not that kind of person. ”
Black Bean: Uhh, actually, I don’t really want to eat this weird thing, it just doesn’t look good …
Mao Dou wasn’t convinced and also pulled at his comrade. “It’s clearly very hard to eat. It’s enough for me to eat just a little bit. After tasting it, I’ll immediately vomit. Aiyo, let’s not talk anymore. I need to eat another piece of chicken to quell the pressure.”
Li Yannian was furious, she stared at Black Bean, wanting to form a strong alliance with him. Suddenly, two knocks on the door sounded out, and everyone thought that they misheard, it was just dinner time, who would choose this time to come?
But then there was another sound from the door.
The knocking on the door was also done. It wasn’t a matter of life and death situations. They just knocked on the door a few times, which was usually neither light nor heavy. The first two knocks were to inform the people inside that there was a guest coming in, and the next two knocks came slowly, just in case the first two knocks were not heard, to let people know, yes, there really were guests, so quickly come and open the door.
Just as Li Yannian was about to open the door, Black Bean stopped her: “I’ll go.”
If not for his upright look, Li Yannian would have suspected that he had escaped using this as an excuse to avoid the challenge of eating the sweet pepper.
“Third Young Master, why have you come?”
Black Bean’s surprised voice came from the outside, Li Yannian was suspicious, Third Young Master? Could it be that Gu Mingyuan had come? It’s not easy to chase people out of the city at this point …
She immediately hid the fried chicken pieces in the wok, not because she felt sorry for the meat, but because she was afraid that if he saw the sweet pepper, it would be troublesome.
Li Yannian was wholeheartedly thinking about how she should deal with Gu Mingyuan, but she didn’t notice that Mao Dou and Zhao Xu seemed to have let out a breath of relief. They didn’t need to eat such horrible vegetables under the pressure of her sister or the Li Family girl.
Gu Mingyuan’s gentle and slightly smiling voice sounded out: “Nothing much, just that I have something to do nearby, and thinking of how your house is just at the side, I don’t want you guys from Bookstore to come over again, so I might as well come over and tell you guys the amount of paper we need next month.”
Before he finished his sentence, he had already entered the kitchen.
Gu Mingyuan looked at Li Yannian, then looked at the dishes on the table in front of her, and laughed: “What a coincidence, you guys are here right now to eat.”
Although he said so, there was no trace of awkwardness in his eyes. He just smiled.
Gu Mingyuan was still smiling: “I haven’t eaten yet, when I left this morning, I did not even drink a sip of water. I was just thinking about coming to your house for a few steps, it won’t take me long. In May, Bookstore wanted thirty thousand pieces of paper.
Forget about thirty thousand, even if it was three hundred thousand, Li Yannian would still be able to buy it.
“Why is it suddenly so much more than this month?” I’ll have to ask that old master later. If he’s not in a hurry, he can also get us to split the paper twice. ”
Gu Mingyuan nodded: “I’ll let my big brother know when I get back, so there shouldn’t be a rush.”
After saying that, he did not have any intention to leave. Black Bean sneaked a glance at Li Yannian, he had already come to the house and was ordering food, but he did not say anything to keep them here, which showed that they had no rules.
Therefore, he started to think carefully, “Third Young Master, you haven’t eaten since the morning. If you don’t mind, you can just eat whatever you want at home. I’m afraid that you’ve been waiting too long.”
Gu Mingyuan did not say anything, and did not say anything bad either, but he looked straight at Li Yannian.
Li Yannian had no choice but to call out: “My brother is right, it will take more than an hour for the village to return to town. Third Young Master should eat more, if the food is not good, drinking some water is also good.”
Other than that, there were also the other two servants that usually followed him. Li Yannian asked curiously: “Did you come alone? The servants haven’t eaten yet, right? I’m afraid there’s not enough food at home. Should I cook some noodles? ”
Gu Mingyuan laughed and shook his head: “They have a place to eat, and others to stay. I was just passing by to talk about ordering with you guys, since it’s convenient here, I won’t be polite.”
As he spoke, he picked a guest seat and sat down. He smiled and nodded at Mao Dou, then looked at Zhao Xu thoughtfully.
