Today, Liu Changan naturally had to do it himself. A few days ago, when he was cooking at Gao Dewei's house, he had even killed the pig. It was a set of procedures for him to set up the banquet, so Liu Changan naturally could handle it easily.
But the difference was that no one had prepared the ingredients for him. He had to buy them himself.
Zhou Shuling said that she would help. She stopped the breakfast stall for a day. She felt that she needed help with things like setting up the banquet. Although Liu Changan had some powerful relatives and friends, those people didn't seem to help Liu Changan. So, of course, she had to help. Otherwise, she would feel sorry for him if he had to do things like setting up the banquet by himself.
Liu Changan and Zhou Shuling went to the market and bought a big bag of chili. There were many dishes in Hunan cuisine that didn't use chili, but what were the specialties? What's more, in the marketplace, which dish didn't have a bunch of red, green, white, yellow, purple, sliced, round, shredded, and powdered chili peppers?
Of course, there were many kinds of chili. There was also ginger, old ginger, tender ginger, dried ginger, vinegar ginger, and so on. There were also some garlic, garlic sprouts, shallots, coriander, and so on.
"You should buy less food first." Zhou Shuling lowered her voice and thought for Liu Changan's sake. "If they give a red packet, cook more food. If they don't give a red packet, cook less food."
Liu Changan couldn't help but laugh.
Zhou Shuling blushed at his smile. She pushed Liu Changan and explained, "I'm not being petty and calculative. I just don't want you to be at a disadvantage. Don't always be a goody-two-shoes. You have to do what needs to be done."
Liu Changan ignored her. For him, cooking was such an interesting thing. Of course, he wouldn't care about anything. However, it was impossible for him to have any feelings of disgust and disgust towards Zhou Shuling's petty thoughts. She was a woman. Her little calculations were only for his sake.
"Why do you always throw a chicken into the car?" It wasn't the first time Zhou Shuling saw it. She was a little curious.
"There's a zombie in the car. If she eats the chicken, she won't harm anyone." Liu Changan's explanation was simple and easy to understand. Zhou Shuling probably wouldn't understand what he meant by 'living coffins' and 'Empress Dowager Shangguan'.
"I don't believe you!" Zhou Shuling was shocked, but since she was scared, she obviously believed him a little.
After buying the ingredients, Liu Changan stir-fried the spicy rooster first and then asked her to open the stall. In Zhou Shuling's eyes, Liu Changan, who had bad grades, liked to talk nonsense. Liu Changan, who had good grades, was naturally knowledgeable and had a certain degree of authority. Moreover, Liu Changan's reason was that he didn't want to open the rice noodle shop, so Zhou Shuling had to open the stall.
Zhou Dongdong didn't have to go to kindergarten today. After getting up, she ran to Liu Changan's place and stayed there. She held a string of firecrackers in her hand. It was the broken firecrackers she picked up yesterday. She tied them one by one with a rope.
"I'll set off firecrackers to show you!" Zhou Dongdong planned to set off this string of firecrackers to celebrate Changan's brother.
"If you can set off this string of firecrackers, I'll catch a dog for you to eat."
Zhou Dongdong pursed her lips. "You can't catch a dog. I don't want to eat a dog."
Liu Changan stretched out his finger and pressed it against her lips to wipe the line of saliva.
"I won't eat a dog … Dogs are cute and good friends. I can't eat them." Zhou Dongdong shook her head and wiped her mouth.
Liu Changan went to work. Zhou Dongdong sat there thinking about why dogs can't be eaten, but dogs are delicious. Why firecrackers can't be set off, and whether Changan's brother will catch a dog and other complex questions.
Taking out a large basin to wash the peppers, Liu Changan smelled a spicy juice overflowing in the air. It was very comfortable.
"Congratulations."
Liu Changan raised his head and saw Qin Yanan.
Today, Qin Yanan was wearing a military green uniform dress. The material was well-ironed, and the straight edges exuded a handsome aura. The tight dress didn't wrap around the curves of her lower body, and her tall and slender figure exuded a sense of arrogance and oppression. She was also holding a thin windbreaker in her arms. Although the weather was hot, for women, summer was the season when they had to prevent the cold from entering their bodies.
"She's dressed in green. She looks pretty." Liu Changan looked at her a few more times. The military style was still very suitable for Qin Yanan. The temperament matched and complemented each other.
"You're going to have a banquet. You didn't even inform me. You see, I didn't even prepare the money." Qin Yanan looked at Liu Changan's movements. She knew that he was good at craftsmanship. He probably had no interest in going to the hotel to have a banquet.
"WeChat red envelopes and bank transfers are all fine." Liu Changan looked at Qin Yanan's mobile phone and said.
Qin Yanan was a little funny and sent five red envelopes to Liu Changan.
"Stay for lunch today." Liu Changan warmly received her.
"Okay."
Qin Yanan originally wanted to congratulate him. She also wanted to see him and ask if he had filled in the application as he had originally planned.
She just felt a little strange. If this was the first time she met him, she would definitely give him red envelopes, but she would definitely despise him. Of course, she didn't have such a feeling of despise now. Therefore, she felt that whether people were familiar with each other or not would really affect their perception of the same thing.
Qin Yanan went to greet Zhou Dongdong.
"Little Dong Dong!"
"Auntie!"
The conversation was over. There was no longer any desire to continue the conversation.
"Does she also call other girls Auntie?" Qin Yanan squatted in front of Liu Changan and asked in a low voice. This was taught by Liu Changan. Qin Yanan remembered that when they first met, Zhou Dongdong called her Elder Sister.
"She calls Professor Liu, and she also calls her sister." Liu Changan laughed.
"Why?" Qin Yanan didn't mind if it was someone else, but when she thought of Liu Yuewang, she couldn't accept it.
"Because other sisters give delicious food, and the one who gives delicious food is the elder sister."
"Bah, whatever. She calls me Auntie and calls you Brother Changan." Qin Yanan didn't care and took advantage of Liu Changan.
"You dare to take advantage of me? Silly girl, you really have no manners and don't know the immensity of heaven and earth." Liu Changan sneered. "Hey, go to the side. My eyesight is too good. I don't want to see."
Qin Yanan quickly raised her trench coat in front of her knees. She glared at Liu Changan with a red face and immediately stood up.
How could she be so casual in front of him? A girl's modesty and defensiveness should be an instinct that should always be remembered.
"Come and help me cut the chili." Liu Changan didn't care about her reaction. He pointed to the chopping board as if nothing had happened. "I'll kill the chicken first."
Hearing that he was going to kill the chicken, Zhou Dongdong immediately dropped the firecrackers in her hand and ran over to join in the fun. "Brother Changan, can I start the fire?"
Children always think that starting a fire is fun, but Liu Changan didn't need this. He took Zhou Dongdong to the side and then cut the hen's throat with a knife. The chicken blood splashed.
"Zhou Dongdong, come and help me cut the chili." Qin Yanan saw Zhou Dongdong wiping her eyes with her hand and immediately said enthusiastically.
"Don't go. A woman's heart is the most poisonous. She just called you Auntie." Liu Changan immediately discovered Qin Yanan's bad intention.
"I'm just teasing her. Do you really want her to cut it?" Qin Yanan rolled her eyes at Liu Changan and waved the kitchen knife in her hand.
