Back to modern times, Her Majesty the Queen and I are both laid off

Chapter 125 Come and drink this bowl of wine

"One box each of mutton rolls and beef rolls. Hey, there are also slices of pork belly. I think you can eat them in a rinse. The price is cheap. Buy three boxes."

Lin Luo didn't give a direct answer to the question Jiang Li asked just now. It was not so much that he didn't know how to respond, but rather that he didn't want to talk about this topic with her.

In the end, he said, "Let's go, let's go to the supermarket to buy groceries." This was considered a prevarication, and Jiang Li didn't ask any further questions.

The atmosphere is quite harmonious now.

It was neither a holiday nor a weekend. There was no one in the supermarket at noon. Lin Luo put the boxes of meat rolls into the shopping cart. The two of them walked to the vegetable section and picked up baby cabbage and some shiitake mushrooms. ,Then
There seemed to be nothing left to buy. He really didn’t know what to buy for the vegetarian dishes for hot pot, so he asked Jiang Li: “For vegetables, how about some baby cabbage and shiitake mushrooms? Then let’s buy some yuba, broad noodles, and beans. Skin these, oh, and buy some tofu dip, this hot pot is delicious, that’s about it, do you have anything to add?”

"No."

Jiang Li thought for a while and added: "This is enough for two people."

"Okay, that's it, let's go."

After throwing the baby cabbage and shiitake mushrooms into the car, Lin Luo pushed the car forward, beckoning her to follow.

After buying the necessary things in the dry goods area, he stopped again when passing by the snack area and walked in with Jiang Li. "Let's buy some more snacks and see if there is anything you want to eat."

Jiang Li looked at the dazzling array of snacks on the shelves, many of which he had seen in advertisements: such as the crunchy shark and the potatoes. They looked delicious in the advertisements and wanted to try them.
But when the words came to my mouth, it became, "These are just for children. You can just buy whatever you want."

"You didn't eat less lollipops either. Did you finish the whole bucket?"

".You also ate a lot."

"Yeah, yeah." Lin Luo nodded, "I'll buy you another bucket."

As he spoke, he looked around and saw nothing on the shelves. He simply picked up a bunch of alpine and put it in the shopping cart. He ate it first and bought it online later.

Then he pulled the car backwards and threw a box of Crunchy Sharks into the car.

Jiang Li looked at the thing thrown in, and was startled, then turned to look at him, but Lin Luo only gave her a side look, took two more bags of potatoes and put them in.

Then he turned back to look at her, "What do you think I'm doing?"

"It's nothing."

"It's fine. I thought what I brought was not what you wanted to eat."

Jiang Li: "."

I always felt like I was being manipulated by him again.

It's useless no matter how hard you try, Lin Luo thought, now the relationship between the two has reached a point. Let's call it a node. In the current state, it is impossible to move forward even tacitly. These things The words God said were like a thorn in my heart, unable to move forward.

It's very confusing to take a step back - who knows what she is thinking in her heart, even eating a snack has to be duplicitous.

You have to find an opportunity to talk things out. No matter what the outcome is, don't stay in this situation where you can't move forward and can't retreat.

Hot pot is quite easy to make, just wash the ingredients to be put into the pot and cut them into plates for later use.Then move the induction cooker to the coffee table in the living room, plug it in, sit a pot of water, wait for the water to boil, and throw the hot pot base into it.

Well, the base of the clear soup. After all, we don’t have a mandarin duck pot at home, and Jiang Li doesn’t like spicy food very much.

If Lin Luo wants to eat spicy food, he can use dipping sauce, but he doesn't know if it is an illusion. He always feels that the clear soup pot boils slower than the spicy pot, and there are not many dishes. If the spicy soup pot should have been opened long ago, but this one has not moved. .

"You wait, I'll get some drinks."

Jiang Li wanted to ask where there was any drink at home, but he saw Lin Luo coming back holding the wine jar and two small bowls.

"Is this a drink?"

"It's drinkable, but it's different from water. It's called a drink."

Lin Luo filled both bowls full, "I drank a little too much last night. I need to drink some wine today to clear it up." To clear it up?
It was the first time Jiang Li heard this statement. He was still thinking about it when a full bowl of wine was placed in front of him. Lin Luo also raised the bowl and said, "Here, let's go one."

She lowered her head to look at the amber liquid in the bowl. After hesitating, she raised the bowl and touched it with him. Then she brought it to her mouth and took a sip. Then she frowned and after a few seconds, she gradually relaxed.

"Which do you think is better between this wine and Daqi's wine?"

"do not know."

Jiang Li shook his head. She had never drank much wine, and she didn't know how to taste wine. If asked about comparing it to beer, she could still answer. After all, that beer was really terrible.

But this one is both rice wine, and the taste seems to be similar. There seems to be no difference.

At this time, the ingredients in the pot began to tumble, and white steam came out. Lin Luo picked up the chopsticks and picked up the vegetables and said: "Actually, the wine you drank in Daqi is better. After all, it is imperial wine. This one is bought in the store. About two hundred yuan."

"This jar costs more than 200 yuan? How much does the beer cost?"

"Three or four yuan a bottle."

"No wonder."

Jiang Li suddenly realized that the price was cheap, so it was natural that it tasted bad.

It doesn't seem right. No matter how cheap it is, it's more expensive than water. I don't understand why someone would pay for it.

In comparison, this kind of rice wine is quite delicious, but not that good. It only tastes bitter and slightly sour in the mouth. When the strong taste passes, there will be a faint sweetness in the mouth. .

It's so light that it makes people think it's an illusion.

Thinking in her mind, she picked up the bowl and took another sip.

"Don't drink it yourself. Come on, touch one." As he spoke, Lin Luo raised the bowl. Seeing this, Jiang Li had no choice but to touch it with him again, then took another sip, then frowned again and waited. For a few seconds, slowly stretch.

Seeing her like this again, Lin Luo couldn't help but ask: "Do you think it tastes bad?"

"Somewhat bitter."

"It is indeed bitter at first, but then there will be a faint sweetness. Just like in life, after eating a lot of bitterness, what you get in the end is often only that little bit of sweetness. The effort and reward are often not equal."

Jiang Li felt that what he said was quite reasonable. Just as he was about to nod, he felt that something was wrong. He immediately frowned and asked, "Are you telling me something?"

"No way, I'm just expressing my feelings casually, or do you think that my efforts and rewards are not equal?"

"."

Jiang Li didn't know how to respond to these words for a moment. After a while, he said, "You said it yourself last night."

"Oh."

Lin Luo made a sound, and then said nothing. He stretched out his chopsticks to fish out the meat in the pot and eat it.

He really didn't want to mention what happened last night. He had no choice but to go too far and even blocked his escape route.

If you want to mention it, you have to get the emperor drunk before mentioning it. I don’t know how many bowls it will take for her to get drunk and then tell the truth while drunk.

It would be great if there was a system, and it doesn’t need to be too awesome. It would be nice to have a function that can help read people’s minds.

By the way, I would be the protagonist everywhere in this situation. Other protagonists only traveled through time once. I traveled through it and came back again, and brought one back with me. Isn't this the protagonist among the protagonists?

Aren’t the protagonists and systems standard?
Could it be that the system is still on the way and hasn’t arrived yet?
Lin Luo felt that this possibility could not be ruled out. One day, if the guarantee was not complete, there would be a buzz in his head. He remembered that there was a novel with more than 400 chapters, and the system just ran out of it. The readers were confused - Good guy, please tell me what's wrong. Systematic document?
Maybe this is the case for him too.

With random thoughts in his mind, Lin Luo raised the bowl again, "There isn't much left. Come on, let's drink it all."
