The handicraft world of the future

"Let's go back tomorrow! The weather forecast says that there will be heavy snow the day after tomorrow. It's not good for us to be trapped in the mountains."

If the snow is too heavy, the car will stop operating, and the three of them may be really trapped in the mountains. There are only five days on New Year's Day, and they will not be able to go back to school and work if they are trapped in the mountains.

"it is good."

Both Lin Xiaohai and Zuo Long agreed. Although they came out to play, they didn't want to delay their studies.

Early the next morning, the three packed up and went downstairs with their bags on their backs.

The proprietress brought over breakfast, and the three of them ate all of it before asking the proprietress to pay.

The proprietress calculated the accommodation and meal expenses for the two days, and the three of them had to pay 350 credits each.The total was one thousand and fifty, and the proprietress directly wiped off the last fifty credit points, and asked the three of them to pay one thousand.The charges in the mountains are like this, not by the room, but by the head.As for why Lin Xiaohai and Zuo Long lived together?It's all because there are not enough rooms. It's okay for two teenagers to live together. If it was an adult, the proprietress and the others would not dare to arrange it like this. That's why Bai Qiuyu, an adult, can get a room, while Lin Xiaohai and Zuo Long are two minors. one.

After saying thank you to the proprietress, and buying some mountain goods from her, the three of them reluctantly left this somewhat remote farmhouse.Sitting in the car on the way back, Lin Xiaohai still leaned against Bai Qiuyu and fell asleep soundly, even Zuo Long fell asleep in the front seat.Only Bai Qiuyu took care of the two juniors dutifully, and woke them up when they got off the bus.

After getting off the car, the three sent Zuo Long home first, and then Lin Xiaohai and Bai Qiuyu turned back to their own home.After tossing and turning, it was almost noon when Lin Xiaohai actually returned home.

"Xiaobai, Jiuge, I'm back."

Lin Xiaohai opened the door and shouted into the room.

The two robot servants who were sorting out the delivery for the past two days rushed out, one by one.

"Owner."

Jiu Ge grabbed Bai Qiuyu and checked him from top to bottom.

"Owner."

Not to be outdone, Xiaobai checked Lin Xiaohai anyway, and felt relieved when he saw that he was indeed not injured.The master is not at home these two days, it feels very lonely, and it is not used to it.It has taken care of its master since he was a little boy, and it was the first time that the two of them had been separated for so long.

Now that Jiuge is used to being separated from Bai Qiuyu, as long as the owner is not injured outside, it will be relieved. Of course, relieved is just an adjective. In fact, Jiuge doesn't know much about the emotion of the word relieved.

"Brother Bai, go back and change your clothes first, and come over for dinner later."

Lin Xiaohai said to Bai Qiuyu that he also wanted to tidy himself up.

"it is good."

Rubbing Lin Xiaohai's head, Bai Qiuyu took Jiu Ge back to the opposite side. As for the wild game and mountain products that were delivered by express, let's wait until we have time.

Lin Xiaohai took a bath, washed his hair again, and let Xiaobai blow dry before he went into the kitchen and took two eggs to make two bowls of egg noodles. Of course, the bowls were one big and one small, and the big ones belonged to Bai. Qiu Yu, and the small one was eaten by Lin Xiaohai.

After eating, the two followed the two robots to sort out the things, and divided the game and mountain products into two parts.

"You don't need so much, just give me a third."

Bai Qiuyu divided another third of her share and asked Jiu Ge to take it back.

"Brother Bai?"

"I'll send some of these wild game products to relatives and friends, and leave the rest with you. Anyway, I'm eating at your house now. It's a waste for Jiu Ge to cook these things."

"..."

Is this planning to rely on yourself?Only now did Lin Xiaohai realize that before he knew it, Brother Bai basically stayed with Lin Xiaohai except for sleeping at night. Permission, you can come in directly without ringing the doorbell.

Everyone said that, Bai Qiuyu naturally couldn't refuse, and asked Xiao Bai to put away everything, hang what should be hung, collect what should be collected, and soon put away all the wild game and mountain products piled up on the ground.

"There are all the New Year's goods."

It was the first time for Xiaobai to celebrate the New Year with his master, so he specifically inquired about how to spend the Spring Festival, and the New Year's goods were the most important thing.

"There is still more than a month before the Chinese New Year, Xiaobai, you have to remember it well now, lest you don't know where to start when you actually buy new year's goods."

Although Jiuge doesn't have advanced intelligence, let alone human emotions, it is still a robot servant. How can there be no settings for programs like Chinese New Year!Xiaobai doesn't quite understand because it hasn't celebrated the New Year alone with its owner all these years, as long as it gets used to it once and encounters it again, just dig out the old records and follow suit.

"I see, thank you Jiuge."

As the relationship between the two robot servants deepened, their friendship also developed. I don't know if it was Bai Qiuyu's illusion, but he always felt that Jiuge had become more humanized recently.

Sure enough, after the early morning of the night they came back, there was snow in the sky, and the rare snowfall in decades fell in many cities in S Province.The provincial capital was no exception. When Lin Xiaohai got up the next day, he saw a vast expanse of whiteness outside.

"This snow is really heavy."

Lin Xiaohai wiped the mist on the window with his hand, and soon left a mark, which was soon covered by new mist.

"Wait until the car stops, do you want to go down and play in the snow?"

Bai Qiuyu came over at some point, and Jiu Ge followed behind him.

"No, just take a look."

Lin Xiaohai laughed dryly. Thousands of years ago, the city where his university was located had snowfall every winter, and it was very big. He was already tired of it.

"All right!"

Bai Qiuyu was just talking, even if Lin Xiaohai wanted to play, he would not let this junior play for too long, lest he get sick.

"Shall we have pimple soup this morning?"

"Pump soup?"

There are many foods that have changed over the millennia, even with different names.

"You'll know when I'm done."

Lin Xiaohai walked into the kitchen, took out the flour and put it away.I also shredded the fresh mushrooms returned by express delivery, and shredded a piece of fresh lean meat. The lean meat was mixed with potato flour and cooking wine and soy sauce, and then peanut oil was added to the pot. , then add Jungu and fry for a while, when the aroma comes out, add the bone broth that was boiled last night, and bring to a boil.

Lin Xiaohai did not spare time during the boiling process, but used cold water to mix the flour into thin gnocchi. Once the water boiled, put the gnocchi into the pot and boil, then add eggs and vegetables, and boil again Just a little salt to taste.

He filled two bowls and asked Xiaobai to take them out.

"smell good."

Bai Qiuyu smelled the aroma before eating it.

"Have you eaten?"

Lin Xiaohai took off the apron and put it on the chair. Xiaobai quickly picked it up and hung it by the kitchen door. The apron needs to be cleaned every day. This one was just taken out in the morning, and it was put into the washing machine in the evening after the owner had a rest. Clean, just take it out the next day.After finishing all this, Xiaobai packed the pimple soup in the pot into a large lunch box and quietly sent it to the child's home upstairs.

"I haven't eaten this before."

Bai Qiuyu was born in a family, and he had never heard of this kind of common food, let alone eaten it.

"Then eat and see."

Lin Xiaohai didn't doubt Bai Qiuyu's identity at all. According to his estimation, Bai Qiuyu might have some money in his family. After all, he also opened a company himself, but that should be the case.He didn't know until now that the gentle big brother Bai in front of him would actually be the head of this generation of the Bai family in the capital.

"it is good."

Bai Qiuyu picked up a spoon and took a spoonful, blew on it and fed it into his mouth.

"How about it?"

Lin Xiaohai was a little nervous. People who make food really hope that the food they make will be liked by people who eat it.

"it is good."

A good word made Lin Xiaohai's face full of flowers, and he happily ate his portion of pimple soup.On a snow-covered morning, a bowl of steaming pimple soup really warmed people's hearts, and Bai Qiuyu's eyes looking at Lin Xiaohai through the misty white smoke became even more gentle.

After breakfast, Bai Qiuyu asked Jiu Ge to bring his documents to Lin Xiaohai's living room for processing, while Lin Xiaohai sat not far from him to embroider.Neither of them made a sound, and the whole living room seemed very quiet.But the strange thing is that the atmosphere in the living room is not cold, and Jiu Ge and Xiao Bai interspersed from time to time to pass things or add hot tea between the two of them. If it is said that this is a family, no one will believe it.

Lin Xiaohai is embroidering a picture of hundreds of flowers, on which there are nearly 72 kinds of broken-branch flowers such as orchids, plum blossoms, magnolia flowers, peach blossoms, pear blossoms, magnolias, hydrangeas, chrysanthemums, lotus flowers, narcissus, peonies, ganoderma lucidum, and roses. The embroidered ones are not too big, and the whole picture is only the size of a coffee table.It’s just that Lin Xiaohai reduced the scale many times when embroidering the picture. The arrangement of 72 kinds of flowers on the picture does not seem to support it. There is really a scene of hundreds of flowers blooming, but in fact everyone knows that hundreds of flowers cannot bloom at the same time. , Lin Xiaohai arranged the 72 kinds of flowers according to the four seasons, and the butterflies fluttering on the flowers also changed according to the seasons, so that people can enjoy the beauty of the four seasons flowers at the same time without feeling awkward.

Bai Qiuyu didn't know when she walked behind Lin Xiaohai, quietly watching him finish embroidering one flower little by little, and then changed to another one.

My Hundred Flowers Picture, I just wanted to take care of my junior's business at that time, but Lin Xiaohai gave him a surprise.Although the embroidery was not finished, Bai Qiuyu felt that what the masters embroidered was no more than that when he saw the flowers with aura on them. They could still surpass Lin Xiaohai in terms of embroidery skills, but they were far behind in terms of aura.

Putting this embroidered picture up for auction would cost hundreds of thousands of credits, at least. Although the embroidery technique was still a bit rough, considering Lin Xiaohai's age, this embroidered picture had a high collection value and was worth collecting.

Bai Qiuyu retreated back to the sofa quietly. Now Xiao Hai is very concentrated, so it's better not to disturb him.

At noon, Lin Xiaohai made three meats and one vegetable again. The more winter it is, the more people need to make up for it. Don't look at Bai Qiuyu's healthy appearance, in fact, this person's stomach is quite fragile. If he doesn't eat a meal or is hungry It will hurt your stomach.It is not difficult for Bai Qiuyu to eat on time, what is really difficult is that he is quite a picky eater, and Lin Xiaohai only found out after getting along for a long time.Although Bai Qiuyu ate all the food made by Lin Xiaohai, but if it was replaced by outside restaurants or meals cooked by robot servants, Bai Qiuyu would rather be hungry than take a few bites, so his stomach always hurts.

Fortunately, with the development of medical technology in the future, the stomach problem has been solved long ago, but the problem of stomach pain when I am hungry or not eating on time is still there.

Lin Xiaohai made soup with mutton for Bai Qiuyu to drink.However, mutton has a strong smell and a heavy digestive burden on the stomach and intestines. It is not suitable for people with poor stomach and spleen function, so only give him soup and don't eat meat.And he was only allowed to drink one bowl a day, for fear of getting angry.After three days of drinking, Lin Xiaohai changed to another kind of soup. It happened that he bought a lot of pheasants and stewed half of them every day for Bai Qiuyu, so he could drink a bowl of it.

A different kind of soup was changed every three days. Bai Qiuyu drank more than ten kinds of soup in a month. After drinking it, he cried when he smelled the soup.But he knew it was Lin Xiaohai's kindness, and he would drink it with him even when he was going to work.

But that’s a matter of the future, and now it’s time to go back to the fourth day of the New Year’s Day holiday. It’s still white outside, and I can’t go out to play, and most people stay at home.The same goes for Lin Xiaohai and Bai Qiuyu, they are busy with their own business during the day, and watch movies together at night.Lin Xiaohai is not interested in those romantic movies, it's too weird for two men to watch a romantic movie, even if he likes the same sex, it's super weird, okay?

So they picked a documentary and thought it was quite suitable, not worthy of Lin Xiaohai's liking, and Bai Qiuyu also liked it.Especially for those puzzles that could not be answered thousands of years ago, many of them will be solved after a thousand years. Lin Xiaohai followed the documentary and watched the experts and scholars in it unravel the puzzles bit by bit, holding the cup in his hand nervously for a long time Didn't let go.

What I am looking at now is a historical puzzle that has not been solved thousands of years ago, a phoenix coffin that was unearthed from the tomb of the Liao Dynasty. Many people guessed her identity thousands of years ago, but there is no epitaph in the tomb, so her identity is also became a mystery.Thousands of years later, traces were finally found in a tomb that also belonged to the royal family of the Liao Kingdom. It turned out that the woman who was buried in a phoenix coffin was a princess with royal status and a shaman, but the timing of her death was wrong. Buried in a hurry, so there is no epitaph.

"It's really enjoyable."

Lin Xiaohai stretched when he saw the subtitles.He had already finished drinking the water in the glass, but he forgot to put it down because he was too nervous to watch.

"You like this kind of movie?"

Bai Qiuyu also looked very cool, but not as exaggerated as Lin Xiaohai.

"You do not understand."

The puzzle that stuck with him for thousands of years was finally solved today, the feeling is beyond description.

"We people, I am so happy tonight..."

As he spoke, he began to sing, Bai Qiuyu was confused, Xiao Hai had bumped into something good, so he couldn't help singing.In other words, why hasn't he heard the songs sung by Xiao Hai?Is this another secret of Xiao Hai?

He cut a plate of fruit and asked Bai Qiuyu to play another movie. I remember that when he watched these documentaries a thousand years ago, he always missed the premiere and watched the reruns every time. Unexpectedly, he could only watch the reruns after traveling through the millennium. What the hell, the first broadcast was all broadcast when he was in school. Did the TV station think that the student brother didn't like to watch this kind of movies, so they arranged the time like this?

"This Cordyceps sinensis?"

Bai Qiuyu turned the pages and asked.

"Yes. By the way, can this Cordyceps be cultivated artificially?"

Lin Xiaohai handed a piece of pineapple to Bai Qiuyu's mouth, and he ate it naturally.

"The success rate is not high, one out of ten thousand is considered good."

Bai Qiuyu originally gave Lin Xiaohai some Cordyceps sinensis, but he got a cold from it, and refused to put it in the soup, or take the pills made from Cordyceps sinensis.

"You are so cold about it and dare to watch it?"

Bai Qiuyu really didn't expect that a boy like Lin Xiaohai would get goosebumps on things like meat worms, maybe it's just that the feeling made him very uncomfortable.

"As long as you don't let me eat it, it's fine."

Lin Xiaohai is very sensitive to this kind of thing, if it looks okay, he must spit it out if he eats it.Thousands of years ago, a classmate brought a lot of chrysalis to eat for his friends. Lin Xiaohai ran out as fast as he could. He just didn't like it!

"Fault."

If Bai Qiuyu hadn't cared about his image, he might have rolled his eyes for Lin Xiaohai to see.What's so scary, isn't it just a kind of caterpillar fungus!Besides, eating this stuff is good for the body, Lin Xiaohai really doesn't know how to enjoy it.

"Ha ha."

She giggled twice, but didn't want to let go.

"Come on, don't act like I'm forcing you, don't eat it if you don't want to eat it! What is this?" Bai Qiuyu ate a piece of sweet and crunchy fruit, but he didn't recognize it for a long time.

"Tianshan yacon, when I first saw it, I thought it was a sweet potato."

Lin Xiaohai was delighted when he saw it, he really couldn't be blamed for admitting his mistake, but this guy looks too deceptive.

"It tastes good!"

After Bai Qiuyu got acquainted with Lin Xiaohai, he ate a lot of food that he had never touched before. The food that hurt his stomach just by looking at it before, after being treated by Lin Xiaohai, he can eat it and think it tastes good.

"Which is, it tastes good when eaten raw, fried meat, stewed soup and made into sweet cakes." Lin Xiaohai decided to cook ribs soup tomorrow, Brother Bai should like it.

"Then let's cook with yacon tomorrow!"

Bai Qiuyu became interested, it was the first time for him to eat food made from this kind of fruit.

"Ok."

Lin Xiaohai gestured.

On the morning of the [-]th, Lin Xiaohai made sweet biscuits with yacon for breakfast, and of course made buns.After asking Xiaobai to send a copy upstairs, Lin Xiaohai and Bai Qiuyu ate this sweet cookie that they had never eaten before.

The sweetness of yacon itself is better than that made with sugar, and it is more natural and green.

A total of six pieces were made, and two pieces were sent upstairs. Lin Xiaohai only ate one piece of the remaining four pieces, and the other three pieces went into Bai Qiuyu's stomach.

"Don't you like sweets?"

Lin Xiaohai, who only ate one piece, sadly accused someone who said he didn't like sweets.

"There's no sugar added to this."

Someone shrugged, he would not refuse this kind of natural sweetness, and the sweets he didn't like were foods made with sugar.

"Too much."

Lin Xiaohai was lying on the table, he thought that Bai Qiuyu would only taste one piece and he could eat three pieces, but it turned out to be the other way around.

"Okay, at most I'll let you eat an extra piece next time."

Bai Qiuyu reluctantly gave up a piece, and Lin Xiaohai was even more sad when he heard it.
