The Great Era of Rebirth: 1993

   Chapter 172, Christmas Eve (please subscribe!)

  It's getting cold, the tail of the Siberian cold snap has been ravaging the city of Yangcheng wildly these days, and the last trace of warmth in the air has become duckweed.

   It's so **** cold!

   Zhang Xuan strung his hands full of bags, and when he was passing the first floor, he happened to bump into Wang Li who came out of the door.

   took the initiative to greet with a smile: "Mr. Wang, go out."

  Wang Li glanced at his hand, nodded, smiled sweetly, and left.

   Hearing Zhang Xuan's voice, Deng Daqing stuck his head out and looked at Wang Li's back.

   couldn't help sighing and said, "She just came back from the mourning at home last night, she really didn't stop for a day."

   Zhang Xuan followed and looked at the back that was gradually moving away, and said, "Old Deng, I don't know if it's an illusion. I feel that today's Teacher Wang is different from the past."

  Deng Daqing was curious, "What's the difference?"

   Zhang Xuan said: "She used to wear heavy makeup when she went out, but today she didn't."

  Deng Daqing's eyes widened, and he muttered several times in a row: "Are you sure? Are you not joking? This is also unlikely? Is the sun coming out of the west today?"

   Zhang Xuan said in a positive tone: "I meet her head-on, and I can see her clearly and clearly, so how can it be fake?"

   Deng Daqing was stunned for a moment, then entered the room.

   Seeing this, Zhang Xuan shook his bag and shouted loudly, "Old Deng, tonight on Christmas Eve, let's have dinner together, mutton hot pot."

   In less than a minute, Lao Deng put on a coat and took out a bag, closed the door and said:

   "You can spend Christmas Eve with your girlfriend at home. I'll go to the bar to see."

   Zhang Xuan was a little surprised: "Why are you going to the bar? Teacher Wang didn't go there once or twice, so you still don't worry about her?"

  Deng Daqing looked at Shijie Road and said, "I don't know, I don't know what to say. This girl has known me for almost 20 years. I'll go take a look."

   said, Lao Deng patted him on the shoulder and left with an umbrella.

   Zhang Xuan watched this old bachelor who was devoted to love and righteousness and disappeared from sight while holding an umbrella, and he also had the heart to follow.

   But I have an appointment tonight, so I can't leave.

   Then he thought, forget it, there shouldn't be anything, right? It's quite normal, and I've been made nervous by Lao Deng.

   Carrying things up to the second floor, after entering the house, Zhang Xuan started to clean the kitchen.

   In less than 5 minutes, Du Shuangling returned with Zou Qingzhu and Wen Hui.

   Zhang Xuanying came out and asked, "You guys came here after class?"

   "Yes." Du Shuangling responded with a smile, put down the book, and followed him into the kitchen.

   Wen Hui and Zou Qingzhu looked at each other and entered the kitchen together.

   Seeing that Zou Qingzhu rolled up his sleeves and looked like he was going to work hard, Zhang Xuan immediately gave up his seat and joked:

   "Master Zou, it's up to you whether I can survive tonight or not."

  Zou Qingzhu glanced at his stomach with an inexplicable look, nodded without answering, and went to work quickly.

   There was a chef, Zhang Xuan and the three consciously fought.

   Zhang Xuan and Du Shuangling are in charge of choosing and washing vegetables, and Wen Hui is in charge of chopping.

   watched the kitchen knife rise and fall rhythmically in Wen Hui's hand.

   Zhang Xuan asked in surprise, "Wen Hui, don't tell me, you can cook with your wealth and aura?"

  Wenhui raised her head and gave him a gentle smile, which was a default.

  Du Shuanglingyan explained with a smile: "Wen Hui cooks first-hand Huaiyang dishes. Her grandmother once made a rule that women in the Wen family must be able to do laundry, cook and run the house."

   Zhang Xuan thought this rule was very interesting, "Is it true or false? If the new daughter-in-law who is married has not touched the spring water, then she has to learn it from scratch?"

  Wenhui smiled knowingly and told him: "My mother started to learn cooking at the age of 20, and it took me 5 years to get my grandma's approval."

Hearing this, Zhang Xuan immediately winked at Du Shuangling and said, "Listen, listen, my mother didn't start cooking until she was 20 years old, you can do it too, Comrade Shuangling. Otherwise, our sons and daughters won't be able to eat whole fried eggs in the future. One, it doesn't sound good when it comes to outside."

   As soon as the old man finished speaking, Zou Qingzhu and Wen Hui already laughed.

  Du Shuangling smiled and did not answer, her face became flushed.

   Chatting and talking nonsense, the mutton hot pot is ready, the dry pot duck is ready, and Zou Qingzhu also made a chopped green onion egg soup to relieve tiredness.

   When it was Zhang Xuan's turn to make beef konjac, he specifically asked Wen Hui, "Is it bad to eat chili peppers?"

  Wenhui looked at the mutton hot pot with red oil, looked at the duck in the dry pot full of peppers, and finally smiled softly and said, "Let's put less peppers."

"Row."

   Zhang Xuan actually guessed that this would be the result. After all, Sichuan and Hunan dishes are heavy oil and spicy, and Huaiyang dishes are two extremes. I don't know how Wen Hui has survived these few months.

  Beef Konjac is different from the previous dishes, it is easy to make, and in less than 20 minutes, four people have been seated around the table.

   Zhang Xuan poured the awakened red wine to Du Shuangling, Wen Hui and Zou Qingzhu in turn, and then poured half of his own wine glass.

   Finally raised the cup to signal: "Come on, let's have a toast, happy Christmas Eve."

   "Happy Christmas Eve." They were all acquaintances, and the three girls didn't hold back, happily picked up the cups and touched them together.

   After hearing about Zou Qingzhu's cooking skills for a long time, Zhang Xuan specially tried it with a piece of duck meat.

   Chew, chew, the old man's eyes suddenly brightened, delicious and delicious.

   Thinking he had an illusion, Zhang Xuan put another piece in his mouth, it was still delicious.

   Damn, this skill is even better than Lao Deng.

   Zhang Xuan picked up the cup and touched Zou Qingzhu alone and said, "This dish is so delicious to my taste that I can open a restaurant."

   "Then you eat more." With the compliment, Zou Qingzhu's relatively indifferent face was also full of smiles.

   Zhang Xuan said yes again and again, and then joked: "With such a good craftsmanship, it can't be wasted. In the future, I must visit my house more often, and I must guide Comrade Du Shuangling to cook more..."

   "Okay." Zou Qingzhu was a thin-skinned girl, and her face was too hot to be praised by the old man.

  The dishes are good, the atmosphere is strong, and the meal is lively.

  Zhang Xuan likes mutton hot pot and the sliced ​​winter bamboo shoots in the hot pot.

   Du Shuangling has a soft spot for Griddled Duck.

  Zou Qingzhu doesn't seem to dislike it, and loves to eat it. This chopstick, that chopstick, is a joy to eat.

   It was Wen Hui, who only stared at beef konjac with chopsticks, and she ate half of a bowl of vegetables.

   During the time of a meal, Zhang Xuan was completely familiar with the girl Zou Qingzhu. The relatively indifferent face of the family, after being familiar with it, is bubbling like boiling water.

  Gudonggudong, she is also a happy Chongqing girl.

   As for Zhang Xuan and Wen Hui, because Du Shuangling did not allow the two to meet up close, the two rarely talked at the dinner table, and even if they did, they were very polite.

   Occasionally, our eyes met accidentally, and the chopsticks were stretched out, and they moved away tacitly, and avoided each other for a long time later.
