Beautiful brother who often invites you to dinner

Lu Xianhao looked at Xiao Wang with an awkward expression, and seemed to go back in time in a trance.

When I was in college, I invited the female classmates I met in the student union to go home for dinner and chat in the yard. It happened that Xiao Xiaoxuan was carrying a schoolbag and wearing a basketball uniform with short sleeves and shorts to go home, humming a tune and spinning around with a basketball in his hand.At that time, Lu Xianhao sat under the vine trellis and took a look.

The 16-year-old boy is full of vigor and vigor, his immature face has faded, and his tough lines are gradually showing.Just after exercising, the person exudes vigorous heat, and sweat flows down the red cheeks.Seeing such a scene in the evening, Lu Xianhao was distracted, he only heard the general idea of ​​what the girl next to him was saying, his eyes were full of the boy passing by the door.

When Xiao Xiaowang walked into his courtyard and saw Lu Xianhao and the girl next to him through a low wall between the two houses, the basketball in his hand lost his grip and fell to his feet.Lu Xianhao's face collapsed when he saw the child who was happy just now.

He walked over and asked, "After school?"

Xiao Xiao let out a tepid "Yeah", glanced at the girl behind him, and then turned back to him, this time his eyes were full of accusations.

Lu Xianhao saw that he was unhappy and asked him what was wrong.

Wiping the sweat off his forehead, Xiao Xiao said angrily, "Why do you still give her the cake? Do you like her!"

Lu Xianhao suddenly heard someone calling him: "Hey, is it okay?"

When he came back to his senses, the 27-year-old Xiao Wang was standing in front of his eyes. He was the same as the boy in his memory. There was no change, but a little different, but the anxiety and urgency in his eyes were exactly the same as before.Xiao Wang glanced at the pot above the refrigerator, and asked again: "Can I eat it?"

Lu Xianhao didn't answer, Xiao Wang's heart sank, thinking that he was in a dilemma, his calm face sank again: "If you don't feel comfortable explaining to Cheng Cheng, forget it."

For a while, the way the two got along came back again, and the polite illusion that had been carefully maintained due to uncertainty for so many days was broken.

Lu Xianhao straightened up, put away his usual gentle face, put on a nasty smile and squeezed his face: "Don't treat me like this, I know why, you just can't see me being nice to others, jealous Essence is hopeless. Wait here, I'll go out and make hot and sour chicken feet later."

Xiao Wang was stunned, and when he got out, he unconsciously rubbed his face, thinking that no one had called him a "vinegar essence" for many years.

Lu Xianhao walked out of the gate and walked to the lemon tree next to the house, pointed his mobile phone flashlight at the tree, and picked two yellow lemons, bright and plump.He put the lemons in his pajamas pocket, one on each side.There was a dog house under the tree. He then opened the roof of the dog house and saw a nest of yellow ducks close together, sleeping soundly, so he closed it quietly again.Seeing that the cubs are all healthy and have no insomnia, he feels relieved.

Back in the kitchen, Xiao Wang looked at the lemon in his hand, hesitated to speak: "... who said that you can't steal lemon trees from others."

Lu Xianhao casually threw one to him, and argued: "Stealing ingredients is not considered stealing, but cooking is considered stealing. That one is reserved for making lemonade."

"..."

Xiao Wang always understood that Lu Xianhao didn't look innocent and harmless on the surface, and he remembered many bad things he did in the past.

He was playing with the lemon in his hand, and when he had nothing to do, he stood beside Lu Xianhao and watched him cook.

The chicken feet were cooked, Lu Xianhao pulled out the scissors and cut each chicken foot into two to three sections.After finishing the treatment, he took out another pot, filled it with half a pot of clean water, and turned on the gas stove.After boiling, add chicken feet, then throw in two slices of ginger, and pour in a small bowl of cooking wine.

The chicken feet in the pot were tumbling, and there was already a scent wafting out.He took out a large transparent glass bowl and handed it to Xiao Wang: "Go find some ice cubes in the refrigerator, and then pour boiling water into it."

Xiao Zhuo complied.

Here Lu Xianhao has already taken out the cutting board, cut the bright red millet peppers into pieces, and piled them aside.He also took out a handful of coriander that was still dripping, the roots were neatly stacked, cut into sections, and put them aside for later use.

Xiao Wang had already shoveled half a bowl of ice and poured it into plain water. The ice gradually melted and turned into a bowl of cold water. He asked, "And then?"

Lu Xianhao turned off the fire and handed him a colander: "Fill out the chicken feet."

As he spoke, he took out an ultramarine blue porcelain basin and rinsed it in the sink.He cut the passion fruit in half, scooped out the fragrant sticky flesh with a small spoon, threw it into the bottom of a porcelain-white basin, and then poured in appropriate amounts of light soy sauce, vinegar, and sesame oil in sequence.Stir well and sweep in the prepared millet pepper, garlic and coriander.

After Xiao Wang fished the chicken feet into the cold water, he stood by and watched. When he saw the marinade made by Lu Xianhao, his mouth secreted salivation. Just looking at it was very appetizing.

Lu Xianhao lowered his head and was cutting lemons. The ends of his hair sticking to the corners of his eyes were scratched a little.Xiao Wang looked at it, stretched out his hand and pulled his somewhat long bangs aside, hooking them behind his ears.The man's expression is calm and focused.

Xiao Wang swallowed quietly again, and finally understood what "beautiful food" is all about.

After the lemon was cut into thin slices, Lu Xianhao picked up a small slice and stuffed it into Xiao Wang's mouth on a whim.Xiao Wang squinted his eyes sourly, with a lemon in his mouth, licking the lemon juice on his lips, there was nothing he could do about it.

Put the lemons one by one into the marinade, and finally take out the chicken feet from the cold water, put them in an ultramarine blue porcelain basin, and you're done with a pot of hot and sour chicken feet.

A full pot is mixed with natural fruit wood fragrance and the fresh fragrance of chicken feet, sour, hot and spicy, very refreshing.

The two sat face to face at the kitchen table, Xiao Wang ate too seriously, the corners of his mouth were covered with sauce.Lu Xianhao took off the disposable glove on his left hand with his wrist, and picked up the mobile phone next to him, "click" it was a photo.

Xiao Wang raised his head in a ignorant manner, and made another "click".When he saw Lu Xianhao staring at the phone, he smiled slyly.

Lu Xianhao: "Send it to Xiao Yi'an, he still doesn't know that I saw you."

Xiao Wang moved his mouth, spat out his bones, and asked, "What has my brother been up to lately?"

Lu Xianhao was a little surprised: "Are you his brother? How long have we not seen each other?"

Xiao Wang thought about it, he hadn't seen him since May Day, his brother Xiao Yi'an was so cool that he never took the initiative to contact him.But he is cooler than Xiao Yi'an.

"Almost half a year."

Lu Xianhao pressed the send button on WeChat, lamenting the cool brotherhood.He said, "Your brother suddenly changed his sex. Recently, he is doing charity work and donating a lot of money to an orphanage."

Xiao Wang obviously didn't believe it, picked up another chicken paw, and said casually, "It's for tax avoidance."

The two were talking when footsteps were heard on the stairs.Xiao Xuan bit the chicken paw and looked at Lu Xianhao. Lu Xianhao reacted faster than him. He picked up the pot and stood up, whispering, "Clean it up."

Chicken feet are only for one person.

Besides, it's a bit embarrassing to let others see them having a small stove here at night, but not call them.

Xiao Wang picked up the trash can and swept away the bones and napkins on the table, Lu Xianhao put the bowl into the pot and put the lid on it.After covering up everything, he turned around and saw that the corners of Xiao Zhuan's mouth had not been wiped dry, so he quickly pulled up the sleeve of his pajamas and swept it around his mouth.

So when Cheng Cheng appeared at the kitchen door, what he saw were two men standing side by side in front of the cooking counter, doing nothing but just facing the door, as if waiting for someone to appear.

Cheng Cheng thought of the clips in "The Shining", and was a little apprehensive to be stared at by the two of them in the middle of the night.

Lu Xianhao spoke first: "I was just about to go up, and I was afraid that the noise would wake you up later."

But he thought to himself, luckily the scene was faked, if Cheng Cheng knew that they ate the chicken feet they bought him, he didn't know how he would feel.

Cheng Cheng waved his hands freely: "If I really fall asleep, I won't be shaken by anything, but I'm a little thirsty, so come down to drink water. By the way, Xiao Wang, you haven't slept so late?"

Xiao Wang still had half a piece of chicken claw in his mouth, so it was inconvenient to speak, so he nodded and avoided his gaze.

Cheng Cheng walked over, opened the refrigerator, took out a bottle of orange juice, twisted the cap, and sniffed the air: "Hey, can you smell something? It's hot and sour, and it smells a little sweet. Like lemons, like..."

Cheng Cheng was completely attracted by the seemingly absent smell floating in the air, he opened the bottle cap but forgot to drink, holding his head up like a dog, discerning the alluring scent.He frowned, and looked at Lu Xianhao suspiciously: "Brother, have you stewed chicken feet?"

Lu Xianhao smirked, pretending to be stupid: "Huh?"

Cheng Cheng intuitively walked to the gas stove, lifted the lid of the pot, revealed the truth, and looked at the half-bowl of braised chicken feet in shock.

Feeling ashamed to see him, Lu Xianhao silently turned his face away and buried it on Xiao Wang's shoulder.

Take Cheng Cheng's chicken feet and feed Xiao Wang.He knew he was remiss.

Cheng Cheng looked at Lu Xianhao with blazing eyes: "Brother, what is this?"

Lu Xianhao: "Chicken feet..."

Sound like a mosquito.

Xiao Wang couldn't see that Lu Xianhao was being wronged so much, he pushed half of the chicken feet aside with the tip of his tongue and held it in his mouth, and said, "What's wrong with eating your chicken feet, I bought a refrigerator tomorrow and returned it to you."

Cheng Cheng was indignant: "You guys are eating alone! It's not my chicken feet, but my trust! Xiao Wang, what about our revolutionary friendship? Didn't you think I was upstairs when we ate? Wechat call I came down as soon as I heard it, I have been busy for so many days, so I am not worthy of a supper!"

Cheng Cheng stood with his hands behind his back, as if he couldn't bear to see the chicken feet that had been stewed in the pot, raised his head and closed his eyes, and said deeply: "I paid the money, I brought them all the way back, I brought them joyfully Handed over to brother, but now it is too late to see them one last time..."

Lu Xianhao: "..."

Xiao Wang: "...what do you want?"

Cheng Cheng: "I just want to taste it."

Xiao Wang: "..."

Lu Xianhao: "..."

There were originally only two people at the dinner table, but now there are three people.Cheng Cheng enjoyed his meal, and he was full of praise: "It's delicious!"

Xiao Wang and Lu Xianhao sat aside and watched, losing their appetite.
