Chapter 177: Authentic Sauce
Chapter 177: Authentic Sauce
……
"Xia Xia is amazing. Not only does she cook delicious food, but she is also very skillful. So can you help your brother knit a scarf?"
"Oh, no! You can weave it yourself!"
The little loli with twin ponytails was busy in the kitchen, preparing the sauce for the noodles while retorting to her brother.
What a nasty brother, he said the knitted gloves were ugly, and at the same time he wanted her to help knit a scarf. If he thought it was ugly, he could just knit it himself! Bai Qingxia seriously suspected that her brother was mocking her.
Bai Ruoan stood at the kitchen door, holding the gloves his sister had knitted for his father, a hint of envy in his eyes.
He said they were ugly... but he really wanted a pair.
Bai Ruoan sighed softly. Seeing what his sister was busy with, he couldn't help but ask, "Why do you always make the sauce yourself before you make noodles?"
The little girl turned around and said, "My father taught me. He even said that I am better than him and that the sauce he made is not as authentic as mine."
"Authentic?" When Bai Ruoan heard these two words, an intriguing expression suddenly flashed across his face.
He walked into the kitchen, picked up the small porcelain bowl on the table and brought it to his nose. He smelled the half bowl of brown sauce inside, and his eyes changed immediately.
"Dad taught you this?"
"Yes, does it smell good?"
Bai Ruoan put down the small porcelain bowl and looked at his sister with some emotion: "You really have a talent for cooking. Dad really can't make this taste. Obviously he knows what to put in, how much to put in, and when to put it..."
The handsome boy half leaned against the wall, looked at his sister, and said a bunch of words that the little girl could hardly understand.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Nothing..." The boy looked doting and raised his hand to stroke the little girl's head: "Xia Xia is really amazing."
As a result, the little girl pouted and dodged: "Don't think that I will knit a scarf for you just because you praise me. People who don't cook should not enter the kitchen!"
"Yes, yes, people who don't cook should not enter the kitchen. You really learned every word that mom said before."
The boy shrugged and walked out before his sister could chase him away, with a helpless smile.
My sister is becoming more and more distinctive.
But he could see that his sister was looking more and more like their mother.
……
The memory ends.
Inside the rental house.
Bai Qingxia moved the scarf away from the light. She looked at the time on her mobile phone and decided to stay up all night to finish knitting the scarf.
The scarf I'm knitting for Lu Yuanqiu's grandmother requires time to design the pattern, so I have to speed up the process.
The next day, Monday.
After the flag-raising ceremony, Lu Yuanqiu went to the toilet and returned to the classroom. Suddenly, he ran into Zheng Yifeng standing at the door of the classroom with an application form for the New Year's Eve party.
"No way? Classmate Zheng, you also have a show?"
Lu Yuanqiu walked forward and asked curiously.
He also recalled that he did not see Zheng Yifeng appear at the New Year's Eve party in his previous life... Of course, he left halfway through the show, so maybe Zheng Yifeng performed in the second half.
Zheng Yifeng said uncertainly: "I... am hesitating."
"Why hesitate? This is our last New Year's Eve party, and it's also No. 7 Middle School's first school-level New Year's Eve party. Let's perform once, so we won't have any regrets."
He stood beside Zheng Yifeng, leaning against the wall and speaking to him. While Zheng Yifeng was still hesitating, Lu Yuanqiu suddenly saw Bai Qingxia in school uniform taking a pot of boiled water back to class. She was wearing a high-necked white sweater under her school uniform, which Lu Yuanqiu bought with her at the vegetable market last time.
This single ponytail looks good with anything.
Lu Yuanqiu suddenly walked forward and blocked Bai Qingxia's way. The girl looked up at him, but when he didn't say anything, she walked to the side. Lu Yuanqiu took another step forward to block her.
Bai Qingxia frowned slightly, and when she looked up she still didn't see Lu Yuanqiu speaking. She knew this guy was being a jerk, so she ignored him and moved to the right.
"Move!" Lu Yuanqiu took another coquettish step.
It was not until Bai Qingxia bit her lip and kicked him on the calf out of unbearable pain that Lu Yuanqiu howled with pleasure "Ah~~", then returned to Zheng Yifeng holding his calf.
The girl stood there staring at him against the wall, and only then did she realize that Lu Yuanqiu seemed to be waiting for her to kick her in the calf. She looked away and walked into the classroom angrily holding her thermos cup.
Zheng Yifeng looked at Lu Yuanqiu enviously, and his fingers gripped the application form tighter.
He said, "I am a soloist on piano...but I would like to find a violinist to play with me."
After saying this, he swallowed with an unnatural expression.
Lu Yuanqiu's expression changed.
Man, your intention is too obvious!
In her previous life, Su Miaomiao had a violin solo program!
Zheng Yifeng must have heard in the office that Su Miaomiao was going to perform the violin, so he asked Wang Haoran for an application form.
However, in his previous life, he was probably defeated by his own "cowardice", so in the end, Su Miaomiao performed the violin alone.
Lu Yuanqiu smiled and said, "I know someone is going to perform the violin~"
"Who...who?" Zheng Yifeng suddenly looked up at him and asked a question that he knew the answer to.
Lu Yuanqiu pulled his arm and dragged him to the office. Zheng Yifeng suddenly panicked. He didn't expect Lu Yuanqiu to be so direct. He was not prepared for what to say next!
"What are you doing?!"
"I'll take you to find your partner!"
“Who on earth is this?!”
The corner of Lu Yuanqiu's mouth twitched...if he continued pretending, he would feel like punching someone.
The two of them were dragged to the next office by force. Suddenly, everyone in the office looked up at them, including Liu Wei and Su Miaomiao.
Seeing Lu Yuanqiu and Zheng Yifeng holding each other's arms, Su Miaomiao covered her mouth and chuckled, then turned to look at Liu Wei.
Liu Wei pulled the corner of her mouth and immediately scolded the two teenagers: "What are you doing? It's not enough to express your feelings, but you are also showing your affection in front of the teacher, right?"
Hearing this, Su Miaomiao covered her mouth with her hands and laughed.
Lu Yuanqiu's body trembled, and he quickly raised his hands to prove his innocence. At this time, Zheng Yifeng turned around and tried to escape out of the office, but Lu Yuanqiu quickly pulled him back.
Liu Wei couldn't stand it anymore and slammed the table: "What are you doing? Are you two going to swear an oath?"
Su Miaomiao burst into laughter.
Zheng Yifeng glanced at the smiling woman and blushed.
Lu Yuanqiu shouted in a hoarse voice: "Zheng Yifeng wants to ask, is there anyone here who wants to perform violin at the New Year's Eve party?! Is there anyone?!"
The shout of the crew-cut boy petrified Zheng Yifeng on the spot.
In an instant, the other teachers all turned their eyes to Su Miaomiao. They all knew that Su Miaomiao was going to perform a violin solo.
The sweet-looking woman stopped smiling and stood up, not quite understanding the situation: "...It's me, what's wrong?"
Lu Yuanqiu looked at Su Miaomiao with an exaggerated expression and said in disbelief: "It's you, Teacher Su?! This is amazing! Zheng Yifeng and I didn't expect this! Is it Zheng Yifeng?"
