This stupid boy didn't even have time to eat half of the mutton when he had barbecue last time. Instead, he chose a few skewers of mediocre chicken wings that were frozen before the apocalypse.
So miserable.
After several days of careful maintenance, Zhuang Xuan finally gained some weight and looked like he was there.
Cheng Xi also gradually let go of her control over him, and the meals were no longer mainly bland.
If she continues to be indifferent, she will definitely be the first to be unable to bear it.
I want to eat meat too!
Cheng Xi threw the colorful flowers to the little kid to play with, and happily went to the kitchen to wash hands and cook.
We have to take the little guy to the Central China base. Such a powerful killer weapon must not be cheap at other bases, right? And we need to arrange some study plans for him. Why don't the illiterate people... throw it to Xu Qingzhou and let him take care of it himself?
This is a good idea.
Cheng Xi washed her hands repeatedly with hand sanitizer while planning the future of a certain little kid.
Before she could decide what to cook, Shen Xingluo appeared in the kitchen on time.
"Is everything in the space tidied up?"
"Almost, what to do?"
“How about pot-baked pork?”
"Okay, I'll prepare the rest."
Chen Xingluo rolled up his sleeves and stood in front of the sink washing vegetables. His tall and straight posture occupied half of the chopping board.
The kitchen on the second floor of the RV is not large, but it is enough for two people to show off their cooking skills together without disturbing each other.
Cheng Xi took out a piece of pork belly from the space, looked at the size, hesitated for a moment and took out a large piece.
Hmm...this amount should be enough, right?
Guobaorou, also known as Guobaorou, is a Northeastern dish.
Cheng Xi cut two pieces of pork tenderloin into thin slices of equal size, mixed them with refined salt and cooking wine and marinated them.
After ten minutes, cover the marinated meat with dry starch, and mix it with water starch and a little salad oil to make it thick. This will enrich the taste of the tenderloin meat when frying.
She took out an empty bowl and mixed it with soy sauce, sugar, vinegar, MSG, fresh soup, water starch, etc. to make a sauce.
This is also the key to the deliciousness of Guobao Pork.
When Cheng Xi heated up the oil in the pan, Shen Xingluo had already chopped onions, ginger, and garlic and set them aside.
When the oil is 60% to 70% hot, mix the marinated meat slices with the thick soup evenly, then unfold them piece by piece, put them into the pot one by one, fry until crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, take out and drain the oil.
A burst of fragrance wafted from the kitchen, making Zhuang Xuan, who was busy playing with the colorful things in the living room, couldn't help but sniff.
“It smells so good!”
Why does he look forward to eating the most every day?
I have never been so hopeless before the end of the world!
Alas~
Cheng Xi in the kitchen didn't know that the little kid had big doubts at this time. She was immersed in cooking.
All the pork fillet slices are deep-fried and placed on one side. Only the oil after frying is left at the bottom of the pot. Add shredded ginger and green onions and fry until fragrant. Then add the oil-controlled fried pork slices and cook until the juice becomes simmering.
Cheng Xi picked up the shovel and started to stir. The juice and meat slices were fully mixed and absorbed, and it was soon ready to be put on the plate.
After Chen Xingluo also finished cooking the two dishes, Cheng Xi sprinkled a layer of coriander on the plate with the pot pork.
"time to eat."
This shout was like pressing a start button. Zhuang Xuan immediately got up from the ground and went to the bathroom to rub his fingers.
"Is this Guobao Pork?"
There are big doubts in the small body and big eyes.
The silly boy stared at the huge plate of potted meat in front of the dining table and doubted his life.
He had seen the Guobao Pork made by the chef's mother. It was often ordered on the menu of B&Bs, but the taste was completely different from what it was now.
"Sure, try it."
Cheng Xi had already picked up the rice and started eating. In fact, her attention had been attracted by three other dishes.
Chen Xingluo made scrambled eggs with shrimps and sweet and sour pork ribs for the first time. They seemed to have a uniform color and a very overpowering aroma. I guess they tasted pretty good too.
She picked up a piece of burnt pork ribs and put it into her mouth. Her eyes gradually brightened and she gave a thumbs up to the person beside her.
The pork that contains special energy is very chewy, and the burnt aroma mixed with sweetness stimulates the taste buds. There is also a hint of vinegar and sourness in the aftertaste.
Wow~
"Is there any skill you can't light up?"
"Thank you for the compliment."
"Wow!"
Zhuang Xuan, who was opposite them, shouted, his eyes narrowed with an expression of enjoyment.
And as he took another bite of the pot of pork, a pot of green plants on the dining table began to grow rapidly, with the intention of turning this place into its territory.
"Zhuang Xuan!"
The little kid opened his eyes, and the green plants stopped expanding instantly, but he didn't realize what he had just done.
The black line of Chengxi supports the forehead.
Chen Xingluo's eyes were dark.
We can't have this child.
Throw it to Xu Qingzhou as soon as possible!
***
Traveling around the border becomes much easier when you have an RV.
The three of them spent 15 days running from the south to the west, and then from the west to the north, and finally returned to City D where the Central China base is located.
"The card collection task is completed√!"
Cheng Xi stretched and felt refreshed, "We're going back~"
I've been here for 20 days, and to be honest, I really miss the owner's house.
Although the RV is a small apartment, it is not as comfortable as the owner's house, and there is no small garden outside where you can walk at any time.
I have collected a lot of factory machines these days, and some of them are directly copied in the production chain. Of course, I have also met many survivors, each with their own characteristics.
The little guy Zhuang Xuan initially thought that everyone would be as kind as those eight superpowers, but he restrained himself a lot after suffering successive blows.
At least his first reaction when seeing a strange human being was not to say hello in a friendly way.
Cheng Xi was deeply gratified by this.
Fortunately, the first and second times this kid met were all good people, and fortunately, not all the people he met along the way were good people.
Chen Xingluo entered the last destination of [Central China Base], and the RV automatically drove towards the suburbs.
Zhuang Xuan, who was looking out of the living room with the window open, also looked curious and somewhat inexplicably expectant.
"Is Sister Cheng's home nearby?"
"yes."
"Are there many people there?"
"certainly."
"Are they easy to get along with?"
"There are good and bad, you have to discover it yourself."
Cheng Xi knew that they would not stay with the little kid for too long. A person would encounter various setbacks and good luck on the way to growth, especially in the end of the world.
In the end, the only one you can rely on is yourself.
"Can I live with you?"
"My family also runs a store, remember?"
"Remember, it's a supermarket that sells things."
"Yes, our family also built many houses."
Shen Xingluo and Cheng Xi discussed this matter. Although they had plans to leave Zhuang Xuan to Xu Qingzhou, it was not safe for him to live outside at such a young age, so it was better to arrange it within the confines of a small shop.
There are so many houses, not least his.
"Do you want to learn a skill?"
Chen Xingluo sat opposite Zhuang Xuan, staring at him with dark eyes and asking seriously.
"Think, I want to kill zombies!"
"I'll find a teacher for you when you get back. It's up to you how much you learn."
"I will definitely learn a lot!"
very good.
"Remember what you said."
