fleet citizen

Chapter 20

Mint looked at the way she was eating the rice just now, and remembered that before he went to Zhuyu Capital, he was in the settlement, where the little girls of the A clan and the little boys of the B clan were also in such a hurry to eat.At that time, the parents of these children would often persuade them to eat slowly so as not to choke.But now seeing Yuan Yu eating like this, Mint actually thinks it's a bit cute.

"It's unpalatable and you eat it so fast?" He couldn't help laughing, "I think it's pretty good here."

"That's because you haven't eaten authentic Kung Pao Chicken." Yuan Yu put the chopsticks on the bowl with a "snap" and said solemnly, "The authentic Sichuan-style Kung Pao Chicken should be served on the chicken breast. That piece of meat, seasoned with peanuts, dried chili knots, scallions and ginger, should not be done here at all, with cucumbers, potatoes and carrots - especially carrots, it's a nightmare."

"I think carrots are delicious." Mint couldn't help crying for carrots, "and now few people can afford real chicken, right?"

Since animal tissue culture technology was popularized in the food industry, meat cultured in batches in culture fluid quickly replaced the original farming industry and became the main source of meat for people.On the colonial planets where medium and large animals are scarce, the meat of real animals is even more rare, and basically only the top class can afford it.

Mint has never eaten real animal meat.He has seen from the food introductions on the Internet that animal meat has a richer taste than cultured meat due to the direction of muscle fibers, and it is also more fragrant and tender because of the connective tissue between the muscles. very chewy.But in fact, Mint doesn't really want to eat real animal meat. Although the description of animal meat is very attractive, when he thinks that because he wants to eat meat, a chicken or a pig must lose his life, he feels so cruel. forget it.

Of course, if he had the money to buy animal meat to eat, he probably wouldn't spend it on satisfying his appetite.In contrast, Mint is more willing to buy new clothes.

"Yeah, I don't know how you are, anyway, the fleet has completely banned the vertebrate breeding industry." Yuan Yu said casually.

"Then how do you know what real chicken breast tastes like?" Mint asked with raised eyebrows.

"Chicken breast meat doesn't have to be taken from chickens." Yuan Yu smiled, "You don't know that most of the meat you eat now is grown from food factories, right?"

"Of course I know that." Mint pointed at a piece of "chicken" on the plate with a fork that had no texture. It's square, like egg whites. It's definitely not the same as real animal meat."

"Of course it's different, it's too shoddy." Yuan Yu sighed and shook his head, as if he hated the restaurant a bit, "If you want to cultivate real chicken breast meat, you must first select a certain proportion of chicken breasts. Muscle cells and connective tissue cells are cultured. During the culture process, appropriate concentrations of various hormones and cytokines need to be added to the corresponding positions through microtubes to induce the formation of bundles of muscle fibers and capillaries and connections between muscles. Tissue. At the same time, it also needs to cooperate with the periodic changes of calcium ion concentration to make the muscles contract periodically, promote the growth of muscle fibers, and increase the content of glutamic acid, nucleotides and other feeding substances. And this one here—” She squinted at the piece of chicken on the mint plate, "At best, it's a piece of chicken-flavored tofu."

Mint was stunned for a while, and couldn't help asking curiously: "Have you really eaten it?"

"Of course." Yuan Yu said proudly, holding his chin, "I'm 'near water'."

"How close?" Mint asked hastily.

"It's nothing." Yuan Yu said with a smile, "It's just because my family has a chef."

So that's the case, Mint thought, no wonder Yuan Yu doesn't like any food, whether he's in Zhuyu or here.The "chef" in her family must be very good, he made this girl's mouth so tricky.

However, about her home, Mint suddenly became a bit narrow-minded. This was the first time he had heard Yuan Yu mention her home, and he didn't know what the relationship between the skilled chef and Yuan Yu was.It may be relatives such as mother, father, sisters and brothers, or it may be—— Mint suddenly discovered that when he thought that Yuan Yu might already have a good boyfriend, and might even be married, he would actually feel in his heart. so uncomfortable.

But then Mint thought, maybe it doesn't matter even if she has a boyfriend or even married.Even places like Zhuyu have liberalized the marriage law, and the fleet will definitely be more open.Yuan Yu should be able to marry more than one boy from the A family, and maybe even a boy from the B family - you must know that inter-racial love is illegal in the Pearl and Jade Alliance. Although it is allowed to exist, it is not married right.

Compared to worrying that the law would not allow Yuan Yu to marry him again, Mint felt that he might as well be worried that Yuan Yu might not like him at all.After all, they had only known each other for a few hours, and maybe they just showed the kindness of the citizens of the fleet, and took him a little boy who had never seen anything to play around.Although she called him "cute", she didn't do anything more excessive to him. Mint didn't know whether it was because she was very gentlemanly, or just because she had no interest in herself at all.

After dinner, Yuan Yu and Mint returned to the hotel where they stayed.

Although this hotel is not considered big, the environment is good. It is a row of three-story buildings on the street, with an open-air swimming pool on the ground, an open-air garden and a greenhouse on the roof, and the underground rail system connected to Tavel. Easily commute throughout the city.

However, Yuan Yu and Mint didn't see it clearly when they booked the house. They didn't realize it was a couple's suite until they checked in. It wasn't like an ordinary double suite with two small bedrooms, but a large bedroom twice the usual size. There is only one double bed.But it was too late to change the room now. It was the peak tourist season of the island, and the hotel was full of tourists from other islands in Tavel.

Standing in the living room of this couple's suite, Mint waited for Yuan Yu to offer to sleep on the sofa, but she heard Yuan Yu say as it should: "It seems that we can only sleep on one bed, my little cutie, you how do you feel?"
