King of soft rice

Chapter 121 - The first time with Han Xia

Zhai Nan looked at Han Xia and said helplessly, "What should I do? Do it yourself. I'm ordering takeaway, so I must have been caught."

Han Xia said with a bitter face, "But I can't either!"

Zhai Nan spread his hands and said, "I don't know how to do it either. Use your mobile phone to look up recipes, and make whatever you can."

Han Xia sighed helplessly, and said, "They're all damned paparazzi, they made me work for nothing."

Zhai Nan looked at Han Xia's appearance, but suddenly felt very cute.The current Han Xia is like a child who made a mistake, without the indifference before.

Maybe only when life has daily necessities, she will be more like herself.

Zhai Nan smiled and said: "Don't complain. You can do as much as you can. We can't do eight-treasure duck, squirrel fish, and buckle three silk. Simple ones should be fine."

Han Xia also resigned to her fate at this moment, took out her mobile phone and started to check the recipes.

After strict screening by the two, they finally decided to cook only four dishes.A tomato scrambled egg, a braised pork, a stir-fried kale, and a stewed duck soup.

These four dishes seem to be the simplest, but these simplest home-cooked dishes are also the most difficult to prepare.

Originally, the two thought that the four simple dishes must be very easy to make.But when they really started to do it, they realized how difficult it was.

"Han Xia! Eggs, pour the eggs in!"

"Zhai Nan, put the tomato lightly, don't splash me!"

"You fry first, I will cut the meat first."

"Hey, be careful, don't cut your hand!"

"Is this kale almost ripe?"

"How do I know! Why don't you keep frying for a while?"

"This duck looks really ugly!"

"You eat ducks because of their looks?"

"Should the duck's butt be cut off?"

"Shouldn't it be necessary?"

"If you don't cut it off, it always feels weird."

"Then you can cut it! You still have to ask me!"

The two were in the kitchen, yelling and screaming.

Mother Han is in the living room, always wanting to go in and help.

But Han's father held onto Han's mother, and said with a smile, "Let the children do it by themselves."

Mother Han said, "I'm a little worried after listening to what they said."

Father Han said with a smile: "They are all so old, nothing will happen to them. Moreover, they work together to do one thing, which just promotes the relationship between them."

As Papa Han said, when Zhai Nan and Han Xia are busy for this simple meal, they are most like a simple couple.

Without the desire for fame and fortune, without the tension of indifference and guard, this is the most real each other and ourselves.

When the two were busy and put the four dishes on the table in a very embarrassing manner, both of them were full of pride and excitement.

This meal was the first time they cooked it by themselves, and it was also the first time they cooked it together.

Mother Han saw the excited eyes of Zhai Nan and Han Xia, and said happily; "Not bad, not bad, although the appearance is a bit off, but the smell is not bad."

Papa Han said, "Try it first." Then, he added a bite of tomato scrambled eggs.

Both Zhai Nan and Han Xia looked at Papa Han very nervously. After a while, Papa Han said, "Although it's a bit burnt, I really like the burnt smell."

Mother Han took a mouthful of stir-fried kale, her face froze immediately, and then she smiled and said, "It's cooked, it's cooked, it's delicious."

Father Han took another mouthful of braised pork, then nodded and said, "It's very soft and tender."

Zhai Nan immediately served a bowl of duck soup to Mama Han, and Mama Han took it with a smile, took a sip, smiled, and said, "This one goes well with kale."

Hearing the compliments from the two old men, Zhai Nan and Han Xia were also delighted, and each picked up their chopsticks.

Zhai Nan directly picked up a piece of braised pork, and as soon as he put it in his mouth, a bitter taste spread out.Obviously it was too hot, so it had a bitter taste.

Han Xia took a bite of tomato scrambled eggs, and it was indeed burnt, but it definitely didn't smell like burnt.

Zhai Nanyou took a sip of duck soup, it was bland, like a bowl of warm salt water.

Han Xia took a mouthful of kale, but spit it out because it was too salty.

Zhai Nan was ashamed, and Han Xia couldn't lift his head, so he just said in a low voice, "Mom and Dad, why don't we order takeaway."

Mother Han said, "No need, isn't this all very good. Besides, this is the first time you two have made a dish, so I have to hold it for a while."

Zhai Nan also said: "Mother Han, in fact, you don't have to embarrass yourself so much."

Papa Han said, "There's nothing difficult. Although the kale is salty, the duck soup is light enough to complement each other."

Mother Han smiled and said: "Although the braised pork is a little hotter, it has all the flavors it should have. And it's not good to eat too much meat, just eat less."

Father Han also said: "Tomato scrambled eggs are actually quite delicious as long as you don't eat the burnt part."

When Zhai Nan heard these words, he felt something stuck in his chest.Although this was the first time he and Han Xia cooked, they had to admit that the meal was terrible.

But the two elders didn't complain at all, instead they kept praising them.For Zhai Nan, this may be the feeling of home that he has been looking forward to for a long time.

Zhai Nan nodded immediately, and said, "Okay, let's eat this." Then, he picked up the kale with his chopsticks.

Han Xia was taken aback for a moment, but then she understood, and picked up a chopstick of kale.

Although the other dishes are not very delicious, they are barely edible.But this kale is really too salty, and eating too much of it is not good for the two old people.

So Zhai Nan wanted to eat up the kale, and the second elders of the province ate this dish again in order to take care of their face.And Han Xia also saw Zhai Nan's intention, and added a chopstick casually.

Mother Han and Father Han naturally could see their intentions, and Mother Han said directly: "This kale is too salty, don't eat it."

Zhai Nan said with a smile: "It's okay, I'm from the north, and the taste is all right."

Han Xia said, "I want to lose weight, so I need to be more vegetarian."

Mother Han shook her head and smiled bitterly, and said, "Okay, I will accompany you."

Seeing this, Zhai Nan immediately took a plate of kale between him and Han Xia, and said, "We have contracted this dish, so don't you two elders take it away from us."

Han Xia also had a bitter face and kept nodding.

Both Mother Han and Father Han smiled wryly and shook their heads, allowing them to finish a plate of kale.And along with the kale, the one that gets exhausted so quickly is the duck soup.

Because the kale was too thick, Zhai Nan and Han Xia ate up the kale with duck soup.As Papa Han said, kale and duck soup go together better~!

As for the other dishes, the two of them basically didn't move, and just filled up with water.

The second elder didn't eat much at first, Mother Han only ate some scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and Father Han occasionally ate two pieces of braised pork.

As a result, out of the four dishes, only kale was eaten, and Zhai Nan and Han Xia drank more than half of the duck soup.Tomato scrambled eggs and braised pork are two decent dishes, but there are a lot left.

After dinner, Zhai Nan and Han Xia were washing dishes in the kitchen, and Han Xia suddenly asked, "Zhai Nan, do you think we are doing this to ourselves?"

Zhai Nan smiled wryly, "What is this? It's a typical self-inflicted situation."
