What It’s Like Being a Vampire

Most children don't know their parents as well as parents know their children. Because once they have children, most parents will put a lot of attention on their children, and in the process of children growing up, there are too many things to learn and things to pay attention to. Parents often have to work as adults, or encounter some major changes.

When Xiang Kun was in the rebellious period of middle school, he often felt that his parents' ideas were too old-fashioned and utilitarian. After working, he gradually realized that their ideas might indeed be old-fashioned and utilitarian, and they were incompatible with the passion and ideals of teenagers, but their purpose was I want my children to avoid some of the detours and setbacks they have experienced.

It is a pity that many truths cannot be explained by talking about them. Only by experiencing them can we truly understand and understand them.

Xiang Kun, who planned the recipes in the kitchen, found that although he had eaten thousands of meals with his parents since he was a child, in terms of parameter samples, he was not at the same level as Tang Baona, who had only eaten four meals. But the "aggressiveness" of parents' tastes is far inferior to that of Tang Baona.

This is not only related to the fact that when he and Tang Baona ate together, the sensory ability and brain analysis and calculation ability have undergone several rounds of targeted training to guide the mutation evolution, which has greatly improved, and it also has a lot to do with the degree of attention when eating.

When eating with Tang Baona and the others, Xiang Kun's attention was basically on them, and he kept collecting their feedback on the food. When eating with his parents before, his attention was only on the food or his own affairs.

So now when he wants to adjust according to the taste of his parents, he finds that his judgment is only: my mother’s cooking is salty, but she doesn’t like spicy food or sweet food. She prefers fish and prefers lean meat to fatty meat; The taste is similar to that of my mother, and it is also salty, but because my teeth are not very good, I like to eat poorly cooked meat, I like to eat large pieces of pork belly, and I hate food with many thorns and bones...

Because there was no preparation in advance, there were actually not many ingredients in the house. They were basically vegetables that Xiang Kun was not good at cooking at present, and the meat was only a plate of leftovers in the refrigerator. Thinking of the dishes he had for every meal when he was at home, he knew that the old couple were not willing to spend money on groceries when he was not around.

Obviously, it is impossible to cook a dish that will amaze his parents tonight, but he is not discouraged. He will cook a few dishes first to calibrate his judgment of his parents' taste. He believes that after one or two meals, he will be able to You can update your own judgment data, so as to surpass your understanding of Tang Baona's taste. After all, you have eaten tens of thousands of meals with your parents.

When Xiang Kun planned the recipe and started to work, the low voice of his parents talking in the living room floated into his ears.

"Aren't you going to help?" This is Dad's voice.

"My son won't let me,

He said that he is very good at cooking now. "My mother responded, her tone full of suspicion.

"Do you want to call and order two dishes?" Dad said with some concern.

"There is no problem with the rice. I watched him wash the rice and put it in the pot. At worst, let's take out two leftovers and heat them up, add pickles and peanuts, and make do with it. Don't easily dampen your son's self-confidence. Now men who can cook are more attractive to girls..." My mother replied very calmly.

While listening to the old couple's chat, Xiang Kun prepared three dishes and one soup dumbfounded.

Although limited by the ingredients, the dinner does not seem to be as rich as it is, but my parents are quite happy and full of praise when they find that the food is edible, and there is no such thing as mushy or undercooked.

Dad was very excited and ran to take out the white wine bought by Xiang Kun, poured a glass and drank it slowly, and his mother kept encouraging Xiang Kun to try cooking more in the future. There was no shortcoming or bad thing. Just boast.

It made Xiang Kun want to get feedback and judge how his parents really felt about several dishes, so he had to rely on the collection of sensory information to infer.

While eating, Xiang Kun talked about some interesting and trivial things about himself in the past six months. Of course, he didn't mention that the company had closed down and he didn't have a regular job for the time being.

Then seemingly inadvertently, Xiang Kun mentioned that a colleague was hospitalized due to illness at the beginning of the year, and it was later discovered that it was a family hereditary disease. Six or seven of their relatives had the disease.

Whether this colleague or the colleague's illness, it was Xiang Kun who lied about it. His purpose was to arouse his mother's attention.

Sure enough, the mother who has a soul of gossip soon began to talk about the situation of genetic diseases in the gossip she knew, the people she knew, and the gossip she had heard. She has popularized the knowledge that many young children now have genetic tests for common genetic diseases, which can be prevented or treated in advance.

Xiang Kun knew that if the relatives on the father's side or the mother's side had an obvious history of genetic diseases, the mother should know all of them based on her ability to inquire about the news.

When he first considered the cause of the mutation, he guessed whether it was the cause of a genetic disease. He once thought about whether to take his parents or even do a whole gene sequencing by himself. However, this idea was quickly dismissed, because the analysis reports given by these gene sequencing companies were all for known diseases, tumors, etc., and Xiang Kun probably couldn't see why by looking at the original data and reports. If he really finds out that his genes are too different from ordinary people's, it's too obvious, and maybe it will attract the attention he doesn't want.

And not long after, he discovered that the body tissue would undergo drastic changes and turn to ashes after more than ten minutes of being separated from the body. How to test it? It takes more than that to process the DNA sample alone.

After discovering the mutant creature, the giant owl, Xiang Kun basically ruled out the possibility of genetic diseases; after encountering Guo Tianxiang, he also completely blocked the idea of ​​letting any strangers or institutions test him.

When he brought up this topic now, he just wanted to verify it by the way. After all, there is a "what if" for everything.

Then Xiang Kun used Huatou again, making both parents recall some capable people, strange people, or people with weird personalities, reclusive, or missing people from the old Xiang family and the grandparents of the old mother's natal family.

Parents also mentioned some grandparents they had heard from their elders, but after Xiang Kun's judgment, they all felt that it was unlikely that they were vampires like him.

After eating and chatting for a while, Xiang Kun took the initiative to clear the table and wash the dishes before returning to his room.

"My son has changed a bit this time when he comes back!" After seeing the door of Xiang Kun's room closed, Xiang Mom said to Xiang Dad, suppressing her voice.

Dad Xiang thought about it, nodded and said, "It's a bit big."

Xiang Ma continued: "Not only did I shave my head, but I can also cook and take the initiative to do housework when I come back, and I also talk a lot. When I came home before, I had to deal with all the things I encountered in work and life." You can only ask by insinuating sideways, but now you have taken the initiative to say it."

Xiang Dad continued to nod: "It's a good thing. He said that he has started exercising again now, and his mental state is much better than when he came back from the Chinese New Year. A man must first have a good physique before he can work. And he does those few exercises at night. The dishes are also decent, the taste is not bad, and they can live."

"Hey, that's not what I'm talking about. What I mean is... There must be a reason why my son has changed so much suddenly. You said that their company is so busy that they don't have holidays on weekends and National Day. He will have that time to go Learn to cook? Will there be time to exercise? You said that if I was not at home, would you think about cooking by yourself?"

Xiang Dad was taken aback, thought for a while, frowned and said slowly: "It's a bit strange."

Of course, he is very clear about his son's habits. When he is busy working outside, he must choose to go to the store to eat, order food, or eat bread and instant noodles, which can quickly solve the problem, and it is unlikely that he will learn how to cook. , but also to buy vegetables, prepare vegetables, cook vegetables, cook, clean up after eating, wash dishes, and take out garbage. The time spent is several times higher.

Judging from his son's consistent performance, there is no special reason, and there is really no reason to learn how to cook.

Xiang Ma said with certainty: "When he returns to the company after the Spring Festival, he must be in a relationship!"

"Ah?" Dad Xiang was taken aback for a moment, then slowly said: "Then this is a good thing!"

Xiang Ma immediately said, "But I must have been dumped!"

"Ah??" Dad Xiang was taken aback again.

Xiang Ma analyzed: "It's not that you're in love. Can my son spend so much time exercising and learning how to cook? Can he become talkative?"

Xiang Dad thought about it, it seems that it really is the case, what can make a man squeeze his instincts, overcome his laziness, find time out of the impossible, and do things that are usually considered a waste of time, can only be the desire and desire for the opposite sex. Love brings ignorance.

"Then why did you say you were dumped?"

"Isn't that obvious? If he's already dating someone, then when I said I would introduce him to a blind date, he could tell me that he already has a girlfriend! And with such a bald head, it's unclear Is it some kind of trick like 'cutting the will'? Your son has always liked to do such childish things! Maybe he didn't even get a deal, and he was already rejected..."

Hearing what his wife said, Dad nodded in agreement: "What you said makes sense, um, it seems that it may be the case. But it seems that he is not depressed, and a man suffers a little blow, which is still helpful for his growth. .”

Xiang Ma said happily: "At this time, it is a good time for him to go on a blind date. He just said that he will stay for three days when he comes back this time..."

In the room, Xiang Kun, who was sitting in front of his desk, listened to the conversation of his parents in the living room outside, with a dazed expression on his face.

Mom's brain hole is quite strange!

But the problem was that Xiang Kun actually felt that his mother's analysis made sense, but he was speechless to refute.

Unless he can tell everything, he has become a vampire, he works out to guide mutations, cooks to process rabbit meat, and spends too much time because he is unemployed...

But he estimates that these arguments may not be as convincing as my mother's conjecture just now.

Xiang Kun shook his head, and while continuing to eavesdrop on his parents' chat, he continued to think about some of his abilities triggered by the eight-armed and eight-eyed wood carving.
