Chapter 24
The two of them had been arguing for so long that they had already digested their dinner, so they walked out of the room together and went to the kitchen to find food.
"Gu Muxi, do you have anything else to eat at home?"Yi Feng poured a glass of water and asked
"I don't know either. I remember there should be some noodles, right?"Gu Muxi was not sure either. She bent down and searched in the kitchen cabinet.
"You never go into the kitchen?" Yi Feng took a sip of water and asked curiously
"How, how is it possible, I can cook too!" Gu Muxi said without turning her head, but her voice was somewhat weak.
"Hey, I found something to eat! It's instant noodles!" She excitedly took out the instant noodles and showed them off in front of Yi Feng.
"Yi Feng, let me feed it to you!"
""Puff!"
Yi Feng spat out all the water in his mouth!
What kind of vicious words are these!
"Damn it! Yi Feng, what are you doing? You sprayed me!"Gu Muxi puffed up her pink cheeks and said angrily
"Ahem, no, nothing, sorry, I choked while drinking water just now. Yi Feng smiled awkwardly.
"Humph, you deserve to be choked to death!"
"Come and cook some noodles!"Gu Muxi glared at him
"Okay, hey, didn’t you say you could cook? You should be able to cook noodles, right?"Yi Feng asked
"I, of course I can, don't underestimate me!" Gu Muxi raised her chin and said
"OK, then I'll leave it to you. Don't forget, this is your home, I'm a guest, hehe." Yi Feng began to blackmail
"You're a shitty guest!"Gu Muxi retorted
"Don't you know how to cook? Then I'll just do it."
"You wouldn't have said it earlier."Yi Feng used the provocation method.
Sure enough, Gu Muxi couldn't stand being provoked by others, and immediately shouted:"Who said I can't do it? You go and stay outside and watch this girl show you my skills!"
"Okay, that’s it, please! Hehe." Yi Feng smiled proudly and ran out of the kitchen.
Gu Muxi:"???"
I'll do it! Why did I fall into his trap again? hateful!
Gu Muxi took a roll of noodles and looked at the seasonings in the kitchen with a confused look on her face.
How to cook this noodles?
It is true that she has never cooked before, and at most she only helps out. Her mother cooks at home, and her father is not available when her mother is free, so it is not her turn to cook.
She rarely goes into the kitchen and rarely touches the kitchen utensils. Now she cooks noodles with a black eye.
What to do?
If you can't cook it, you will definitely be laughed at by Shou Yifeng!
No, absolutely not!
How could I make Shou Yifeng look down on me?
No matter what, I have to do it!
Isn’t it just cooking noodles? Is it still possible to stump this talented girl?
Gu Muxi, you can do it!
Gu Muxi thought, cheered herself up, and started preparing to cook noodles.
She followed her mother's instructions, first filled a pot with water, and then turned on the gas stove to light the fire.
"Click."
She managed to light a fire
"Haha, the ignition was successful, it doesn't seem that difficult."Gu Muxi was happy that she had successfully lit the fire.
"Next...just put it on the noodles?"
She was confused again.
She forgot whether her mother was under cold water or hot water.
"Forget it, it’s all water anyway, and the water will boil anyway, so put it in and boil it first!"
She opened the plastic wrap of the noodles and took out a handful
"So little, shouldn’t it be enough?"
"That guy Yi Feng is a big eater. If he eats a lot, he should eat more."
Then she took out two more handfuls and almost finished half the tube of noodles.
"Haha, I've done another thing." She smiled complacently and clapped her hands.
"Should I prepare some side dishes for him next?"
"How about some eggs and green leaves?"
She stroked her chin and thought.
After deciding, she went to get an egg and picked some lettuce leaves.
"The lettuce leaves are too big to taste. Just cut them into strips like my mother did. It will be more delicious!"
Gu Muxi picked up the kitchen knife. This was one of the few opportunities for her to touch the kitchen knife.
She took a piece of lettuce leaf and started to cut it awkwardly.
At this time, outside the kitchen, Yi Feng was sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed, looking for food from the living room. I got a bag of melon seeds and started eating them leisurely.
I was really looking forward to eating the noodles cooked by Gu Muxi soon!
She could definitely do such a simple thing as cooking noodles. She just had to wait to eat them. That's it.
Ah, how happy it is to have a daughter-in-law who can cook!
He was licking the melon seeds and waiting for Gu Muxi to cook the noodles.
In the kitchen, Gu Muxi suddenly smelled something burnt.
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
"Ah! My noodles!"
She suddenly realized that noodles were cooking in the pot!
She quickly lifted the lid and saw the situation inside. She was stunned.
How come the water has boiled away?
I clearly put a lot of water in it!
What's going on?
She quickly turned off the fire and scraped it with a spoon. The noodles on the top seemed not cooked yet, but the noodles on the bottom were already mushy.
"Hey, what are you thinking about? It seems that you have to stir it up after forgetting the following!"Gu Muxi slapped her forehead, feeling regretful for her mistake.
But it doesn't matter, it's just a little mushy. It should be... still edible, right?
Add some water first and continue cooking.
Thinking about it, she took two bowls of water in with a bowl. Stir it once and cook the noodles again.
She continues to cut the lettuce and finally finishes cutting more than a dozen leaves.
"The noodles should be almost ready, right? Put the vegetable leaves first, and then crack an egg in?"
She couldn't remember the steps, but the impression was roughly like this.
So she poured all kinds of irregularly shaped vegetable leaves into it and stirred it.
It seemed that the water had become less, and the noodle soup was a bit thick, almost like snot.
Gu Muxi didn't care about it, as long as it was edible, she couldn't guarantee how delicious it would be. She didn't know how to crack an egg, so she followed her mother's example and knocked it on the edge of the pot..
She exerted force on her wrist.
"Click!"
The egg was broken in half, and the egg liquid and half of the eggshell fell into the pot.
"Ah! The eggshell fell into the pot, quickly take it out!"
Gu Muxi hurriedly used a spoon to take out the eggshell.
But when he took it out again, he felt that the eggshell seemed a little smaller.
"Phew, it should be fine, the next step is the most important step, seasoning!"
Gu Muxi looked serious and planned to put some peanut oil first, then some soy sauce and salt.
The peanut oil was successfully poured in, and then the soy sauce. This bottle of black liquid should be it, right?
She picked it up and poured it into the pot.
"Dun dun dun——"
After pouring a lot, she suddenly smelled a sour vinegar smell.
She brought the bottle to her nose and smelled it
"Uh... this is vinegar! Old vinegar!"
"Oops, what can I do?"
Gu Muxi was confused. She had just poured a lot of vinegar into it. How should she save this pot of noodles? Vinegar... How about adding some more sugar to make sweet and sour noodles?
Yes, the taste of sweet and sour pork ribs must be very good. Let's enjoy it!
Then she found some sugar and stirred it in.
Then she added soy sauce and salt.
Why was it so dark? It was soy sauce.!
Could it be that adding more soy sauce would make it so dark?
Well...it's very possible.
Then I can just add less salt. For such a big pot of noodles, two spoonfuls of salt should be enough.
Add two tablespoons of salt.
Stir again to combine all the ingredients and seasonings!
"Is Gu Muxi okay? I'm almost starving!"
Yi Feng shouted outside the kitchen
"Okay, okay, don't worry, I'll pretend it for you right now!"Gu Muxi quickly picked out the noodles with chopsticks.
They might have been overcooked, and the noodles broke when pinched, so she had to use a spoon to fish them out.
After a while, a bowl of dark, sticky egg noodles was served.
She used The towel holds the edge of the big bowl and carries it out
"Come and eat noodles, delicious noodles!"
Gu Muxi brought the noodles to the table and shouted
"quack! It’s finally cooked and I’m almost fainting from hunger!"Yi Feng ran over from the living room excitedly.
When he came to the dining table and saw the big bowl of black noodles on the dining table, he was petrified on the spot!
This sticky liquid... these black noodles...
This weird oily shine...
Oh my God, look at it from above, from below, from left to right, from any angle, it doesn't look like a bowl of delicious noodles!
Yi Feng twitched the corner of his mouth and pointed. Seeing this strange bowl of noodles, I asked in shock:"Here, is this the noodles you cooked?"
Gu Muxi smiled proudly and said,"Yes, I just gave it a very nice name.""
"Soul-stirring and delicious egg noodles!"
Yi Feng:"[・_・?]……"
"Is it really that delicious?
Gu Muxi said sternly:"Of course, it must be delicious. After all, it is a bowl of noodles that I put all my efforts into. This is a bowl of noodles that I made with the most care!""
"But...why isn't its color right?"
"The eggs are all black!"Yi Feng was stunned.��
Gu Muxi put one hand on his shoulder, pressed him down on the chair, and patiently explained:"Don't just look at its appearance."
"People cannot be judged by their appearance, even their faces are the same."
"Don't think it's dark, you have to carefully experience its taste."
Yi Feng was stunned:"How philosophical, I am convinced by you!"
Gu Muxi said expectantly:"Then eat it quickly!"
Yi Feng picked up the chopsticks and scratched it. It was so dark that he couldn't see what was inside.
Let's taste it first.
Yi Feng picked up a chopstick of noodles, blew on it, and then put it in his mouth.
Chew it.
"How is it?"Gu Muxi lowered her head, clenched her fists, and looked nervous.
It was her first time to cook noodles, and she really wanted to know if Yi Feng liked the taste.
"Mm, very delicious……"
"vomit——!"
