Siheyuan: I can always stay out of it

In fact, for Chen Xu, having more uncles is not a big deal, but his experience in his previous life has destined him to not want to compromise. He likes friends who he can get along with.

As an orphan in his previous life, he doesn't really believe in so-called family affection. After all, he has never experienced this. Compared to some nominal relatives, he trusts the people he makes friends with more.

However, what he thinks does not conflict with the current cause and effect. No matter what, he still has to recognize this uncle first. As for whether he wants to stay with him for a long time, it depends on subsequent developments.

Moreover, although Chen Xu is going back to his hometown frequently now, there is a reason for it. If he waits until his space is developed and then takes Lin Chan away, he probably can't expect him to go back to his hometown every now and then.

Pushing open the gate of his hometown, the yard was unexpectedly clean, and there were signs of wiping in the house. Chen Xu wondered who came to help clean it, his third uncle or Lin Chan?

Walking into the bedroom, Chen Xu smiled as he looked at the purple plants in a bottle on the bedroom table.

He had seen this thing at Lin Chan's house. According to his mother-in-law, this thing was called lavender and could repel insects.

Chen Xu had heard of this thing in his previous life, but had never paid attention to it. After all, not many boys would be interested in flowers and plants. However, he still knew the name lavender.

Seeing that Lin Chan brought it from the mountain, Chen Xu moved closer and observed it carefully for a moment. There was some water in the bottle, and the flowers looked fresh. It was estimated that Lin Chan came here yesterday.

Is the little girl missing her husband?

Chen Xu stroked his chin in thought.

A few seconds later, Chen Xu shuddered. Just now he thought of Lin Chan's cute little bird look, but the next moment he felt that he should have thought too much. Cute little bird, angry birds is more like...

Without thinking any more, Chen Xu decisively dragged the bamboo raft in the backyard into the river.

Why think so much? It will become clear when you see it.

Compared with his impatience in the previous times, Chen Xu's level of paddling the bamboo raft has obviously improved. Although there is still a gap between him and the veterans, he no longer wanders around in the river.

He even had the leisure to look at the scenery on both sides of the river.

However, I didn't see much of the scenery. I did see some ragged people digging wild vegetables. Compared to the villages outside, this place is closer to the mountains and has fewer people.

The growing environment for wild vegetables is better, so naturally the harvest from collecting them is greater.

These people should be from a village not far away. Chen Xu did not stop and continued to go towards Linjia Village.

Those people also saw Chen Xu, but had no intention of saying hello. After all, they were not familiar with each other and were busy making a living. How could they have the mood to pay attention to a person paddling a bamboo raft?

Chen Xu's good mood became inexplicably heavy. Compared to him, who had a cheat, other people were much more pitiful. This was near Sijiu City, where everyone had to rely on wild vegetables to fill their stomachs. One could imagine what the situation was like in other places.

Chen Xu couldn't care less and didn't have the ability to do so.

Compared with those living Bodhisattvas, he believes more in keeping to himself.

Linjia Village was still the same. It was still afternoon when Chen Xu arrived. There were not many people in the village. Most of them were busy working in the reclaimed fields. There was not much land in the village, but at least they could make something of it.

Compared with those areas outside where there is no harvest, this place seems like a paradise.

Chen Xu stood at the door of Lin Chan's house speechless. The courtyard gate and the door of the house were closed, and it was obvious that no one was home.

My mother-in-law should have gone to the fields. As for Lin Chan, this girl probably ran to the mountains.

Chen Xu didn't hesitate and pushed the door open.

His current relationship with Lin Chan is well known in the village, so naturally, everyone would not have too many concerns. It would be awkward to wait outside the door, so it would be better to come in and wait.

Chen Xu went into the kitchen.

There was basically no other seasoning at home except some oil and salt. However, the amount of noodles he gave to Lin Chan did not decrease much. Chen Xu wondered if this girl had changed to a vegetarian diet during this period of time, or if the sun had risen from the west.

With her appetite, thirty kilograms of noodles would not last her long.

Chen Xu thought about it and took out some food from the space, mostly two-grain flour, which he mixed with white flour and corn flour. The white flour was his quota, and the corn flour was the one he had looted from Jia Dongxu.

As for two-ply flour, people nowadays actually prefer to mix white flour and corn flour themselves. After all, if you make it yourself, you can control the amount of corn flour. If the conditions at home are not good, you can increase the proportion of corn flour, which will save more money.

As for the two-grain flour in the grain and oil shop, it depends on the quality. An experienced person can tell at a glance the approximate ratio of white flour to corn flour, but Chen Xu obviously does not have this skill, so he directly changed his quota to white flour.

It's nothing more than paying a little more money. In fact, the price of rationed grain is not high. If the family is not really in financial difficulty, people still prefer white flour. Although they eventually take it back and mix it into two-grain flour themselves, they still have a clear idea of ​​the cost.

Cornmeal is generally another name for cornmeal.

This kind of thing is definitely a good thing in the 21st century.

Chen Xu had eaten the kind of steamed bread made of pure cornmeal in his previous life, and it tasted very good.

As for why corn flour nowadays tastes bad, it is naturally because corn flour nowadays is made by adding corn cobs to it, and the proportion is not low. It would be strange if part of the corn cobs and corn were ground into flour together and it could taste good.

This is how the name corn noodles came about.

In addition to cornmeal, there are actually others.

For example, sorghum noodles, black bean noodles, kidney bean noodles and so on.

The only difference is the mixed ingredients, corn cobs, sorghum husks, tree bark, potato vines, and all sorts of other things are added when grinding the flour.

This kind of mixed flour is steamed into steamed corn bread, which is as hard as a rock. It is completely different from the steamed corn bread of later generations.

In Chen Xu's memory, his original self had been eating these things for almost the entire year.

Although he was not the one who ate it, given his memory, it was not much different from if he had eaten it himself.

Therefore, the ratio of white flour in the two-pronged flour he made was very high, so at least it would not make your throat dry when you eat it.

Although he doesn't have much demand for food, it doesn't mean he is willing to eat food that is hard to swallow.

In fact, he prefers rice to noodles, but it is not reliable to eat rice in this year.

Chen Xu looked at the alarm clock in the space and it seemed that dinner time was not far away.

He was a little hesitant at this moment, not knowing whether to cook dinner himself.

There were few dishes in Lin Chan's house. Apart from some eggs, the rest were vegetables. He took out some meat and planned to give it to his wife and mother-in-law as a snack in the evening.

Chen Xu took out his own cookbook, but after searching for a long time he still couldn't find a dish that could be made with just oil and salt.

I put the recipe down helplessly. Apparently, even the simplest dish requires some seasoning.

For a guy like him who can only imitate others, it is really difficult to expect him to cook according to circumstances.

Some people are really not suitable for cooking, like Chen Xu.

He had cooked in his previous life, but he soon found out that he was not cut out for it, so he naturally gave up.

After he got a job, he never cooked again.

After all, Century 21 hotels are everywhere.

For a social animal, it is normal to eat fast food when free and instant noodles when busy.
