My Lover with Fluffy Ears - Chapter 35

Since changing the stall time of braised vegetables to 5:00 pm, grey eggs and rhubarb have also changed the timing of braised dishes.

In order to maintain the freshness of the dishes, when the sky was just getting bright at 5 or 6 in the morning, the two went out to the vegetable market to purchase.

This time is also the start of a lively day in the vegetable market. Large trucks are loaded with fresh vegetables and seasonal fruits and vegetables from all over the world.

Grey eggs and rhubarb weave through the raucous market, avoiding the porters who carry the goods and the vendors who haggle loudly with the drivers. The two went straight to the second floor, which mainly sells all kinds of meat.

Picking and selecting, with a nose with a keen sense of smell, I selected the fresh pig trotters, chicken feet, and duck feet that were just put on the stall.

The skills of gray eggs and rhubarb have caused a small discussion in the meat stall market, so that a restaurant owner who heard about it deliberately squatted in front of the stall where they often came, and wanted to hire them to work in his restaurant. buyer.

Of course, it was rejected outright by Gray Egg.

However, the unwilling boss took great pains to find another person who had been a hound in the dog days as a buyer. This story has become a topic of conversation among meat stall market owners.

After shopping, I usually go home around 8:00.

The first thing I do when I get home is to make breakfast, and I also make breakfast in different ways.

Steamed buns, eight-treasure porridge, and pasta take turns.

Rhubarb sorts the purchased ingredients and puts them in the refrigerator.

After making breakfast, Huidan went to the bedroom to start a routine “call/breakfast” service, which was to wake Chen Qi up for breakfast.

This task is not easy. As a new viewer of TV’s “Health Lecture”, Huidan knows the consequences of not eating breakfast. He can’t let Aqi’s stomach hurt.

“You are so annoying.”

Chen Qi, who was buried under the quilt, closed his eyes and resisted. This was a scene that was staged every day. The tug-of-war usually lasted for 10 minutes.

Chen Qi huddled under the quilt to protest, Huidan sat beside her, gently persuaded her to get up, and helped her get dressed when necessary.

This is the second time Chen Qi has enjoyed such treatment since graduating from kindergarten, but no one or “dog” in the family is surprised by this, and both parties are very happy and addicted to it.

He dragged him out of the bedroom, and just sat down and ate a few mouthfuls, when Chen Qi turned on the vibrato on his phone and looked.

Putting the peeled egg in Chen Qi’s bowl, Hui Dan frowned and stared at the phone in her hand, feeling unhappy no matter what.

Loud music, repeated playback, gray eggs can endure.

Unable to bear it, Chen Qi was so obsessed with it that he ignored himself. Even if you turn off the lights at night, you have to turn off the sound to see late at night.

With his back to himself, he had slept in his arms before.

“Aqi…” Huidan shouted sticky, and took Chen Qi’s arm.

Chen Qi’s eyes didn’t move, and the word “Is something wrong” popped out of his mouth very perfunctory, and scooped a spoonful of eight-treasure porridge from the bowl and put it into his mouth.

As the saying goes, one heart cannot be used for two. A spoonful of eight-treasure porridge entered Chen Qi’s mouth, and 5 minutes later, it was still in his mouth.

“What are you doing?” Chen Qi exclaimed, raising the hand holding the phone high. .

It turned out that Gray Egg wanted to grab the phone.

Stimulated by Chen Qi’s action of protecting the phone, Huidan felt even more aggrieved.

“You look at this every day… your eyes can’t take it.”

Gray Egg was embarrassed to say that the phone took away all of Chen Qi’s concentration, and turned to Chen Qi’s eyes.

Before he woke up, Chen Qi curled the corners of his mouth: “Stop it! It’s not an old man in the 70s or 80s, so don’t talk about the health scriptures. Those medical professors must be liars and actors that the show team looked for.”

After Chen Qi finished speaking, he put down his mobile phone and looked at Huidan, intending to see how the loyal audience of the health lecture hall had to defend himself.

However, he saw Gray Egg staring at him foolishly with a smile on his face.

“Silly dog…” Chen Qi muttered and lowered his head to eat breakfast seriously, and his anger disappeared.

Seeing that Chen Qi didn’t look at his phone again, Huidan got up and went back to the kitchen to start preparing the things for the stall in the afternoon.

Together with rhubarb, I cleaned the meat and vegetable dishes, and I was busy until about 11 in the morning before sorting out the various meat dishes I bought in the morning.

After lunch, take a short rest and take a nap.

The next step is the halogenation process, which is a special event for gray eggs.

What seasonings to put and the order in which meat and vegetables are put in the pot are all decided by Huidan, and even how long it takes to marinate is controlled by Huidan.

The other two in the family only had to turn the fire off.

After a while, the lo-mei in the pot was shaking due to the boiling, making a “gumbling” sound.

Gradually fragrant lo-mei wafts on the upper and lower floors, seducing the taste buds of neighbors.

After the brine is cooked, take it out of the pot and put it in the dustpan. The gray eggs and rhubarb are ready to go out.

“Aqi, let’s go.” Huidan bent down and said to Chen Qi, who was lying on the sofa.

“…”

Chen Qi stared at the phone without moving his eyes.

“Aqi.” Gray Egg’s voice was slightly louder.

“Huh?! Oh, let’s go.”

Huidan reluctantly rubbed the top of Chen Qi’s head, and went out with Da Huang carrying something.

Putting all kinds of things in the car stand neatly, after closing the glass door, the two pushed the car to the old location.

Not long after it stopped, someone came.

It was the first aunt who came to buy braised vegetables yesterday.

“But wait for you,” the aunt smiled. “Weigh me a pound of chicken feet and ask for three pieces of dried tofu. You taste like Lao Liu’s craftsmanship.”

Hearing that, Huidan and Rhubarb looked at each other tacitly and started their respective work. Rhubarb weighed the scales, and Huidan cut shredded tofu.

Seeing how skilled the two of them looked, Auntie suddenly sighed and said, “Oh, Lao Liu left so suddenly, but you two young men can be considered to inherit his craftsmanship.”

“Thank you for remembering my grandpa.”

The originally smiling Da Huang’s expression was a little surprised for a moment, and then he responded with a moving expression.

“Lao Liu is a good person. Even if we don’t buy these in our community, we like to go to his place for a chat.”

Auntie’s tone is nostalgic.

After sending his aunt away, Huidan looked at Rhubarb’s face and said, “Is the braised vegetables I made comparable to Grandpa Liu?”

His eyes followed the back of Da Huang, who had already walked away, and became silent.

It wasn’t until her back completely disappeared that Da Huang slowly said, “Yes.”

The word Rhubarb spoke very slowly, but with great certainty.

The two looked at each other, each with nostalgia for Grandpa Liu in each other’s eyes.

However, this longing was quickly interrupted by the guests who came to buy braised vegetables, and the two began to work tacitly.

During the rush hour, there were 3 or 4 customers in front of the braised vegetable stall.

Among them, there are also young white-collar workers who pass by the stall and are attracted by the appearance of gray eggs and rhubarb.

The two were busy quickly, and it was already dark before they knew it.

“Welcome to come again next time.” Rhubarb warmly sent off the last guest and glanced down at the booth.

The vegetable area in the big dustpan was empty, with only some animal offal left, and the most expensive pig’s trotters were swept away.

“We sold out the gray eggs!” Rhubarb shouted excitedly.

Gray Egg nodded silently and quickly packed up. At this moment, he just wanted to go home quickly.

…

On the sofa in the living room, Chen Qi, who had been swiping his phone since Huidan went out, was frantically swiping the screen.

One by one, the small videos were taken away by Chen Qi without even making a sound.

“What the hell.” Chen Qi, who was still looking good in the morning, would be boring and boring to watch, either because he was ugly or he was acting fake.

“Crash.” It was the sound of the key opening the door

The sound was not loud, but it made Chen Qi stop the movements in his hands, and focused his ears to pay attention to the movement of the door.

“How is the braised vegetable stall today?”

As soon as Huidan and Da Huang entered the entrance, they were greeted by Chen Qi’s question before the door was closed.

“There are a lot of people here today, so there’s only so much left.” A smile appeared on Huidan’s face, and his eyes were bright.

It was also displayed with a pocket, and the pocket contained a little bit of braised vegetables left over from the stall.

Chen Qi’s heart finally fell.

The three walked into the living room, and before they were seated, Gray Egg hurriedly asked, “Aqi, are you full for dinner, do you want to eat?”

Chen Qi pouted and said in disgust, “How can I have such a big appetite.”

However, I still agree that the gray eggs cut the rest of the braised cabbage.

The gray eggs swiftly cut the marinated cabbage and mixed the seasoning.

Chen Qi only tasted a little, and the rest was eaten by gray eggs and rhubarb.

The three watched TV for a while and chatted a few words, then washed and prepared to rest.

When Chen Qi returned to the bedroom after taking a shower, Hui Dan was already sitting on the bed looking at him eagerly.

Chen Qi fell into the warm embrace the second he entered the bed.

As usual, he adjusted his sitting posture, and hugged Gray Egg’s waist against his arms. After a while, he said, “Aren’t you tired after a busy day today?”

There was a pair of black hair that ran between his fingers, the familiar smell of shampoo in his nostrils, and Huidan’s body finally relaxed after a busy day.

Seeing that Huidan didn’t answer for a long time, Chen Qi looked up and saw that he closed his eyes and seemed to be asleep, but his hand didn’t loosen.

“Idiot.” Chen Qi couldn’t help scolding.
