Aunt Zheng went out, Zhou Mi knew where she would go, but he wasn't worried at all.

Zhou Mi changed into home clothes, put on an apron, and started cooking.

Wash the wax gourd and ribs first, put them in a casserole and stew them.

Then, make fried duck with sour bamboo shoots.In the cabinet in the kitchen are the sour bamboo shoots soaked by Aunt Zheng, and in the refrigerator are the ducks that Aunt Zheng has just prepared.Take it out, chop the duck, and cut the sour bamboo shoots into strips.Zhou Mi doesn't like to eat sour bamboo shoots. Except for people from a certain place, most people in the foodie country don't like the taste of sour bamboo shoots, thinking they have a rotten taste.But Zhou Du likes it, ever since Zhou Du went to a certain place to eat fried duck with sour bamboo shoots, he has never forgotten it.Sour bamboo shoots are not easy to take, so Zhou Mi learned how to make sour bamboo shoots from the locals. Every year when the bamboo shoots are fresh, they soak them in several pots.When Zhou Du loses his appetite, he cooks fried duck with sour bamboo shoots.

With a smile on the corner of Zhou Mi's mouth, he skillfully heated the wok without putting any oil, and first fried the water from the sour bamboo shoots.Then put the oil in the pan, put the duck in and stir-fry, let the sour bamboo shoots mix with the oily aroma of the duck, and let the sour bamboo shoots absorb the oil of the duck.Wait until the aroma comes out, then it can be out of the pot.

Stir-fried green beans, mapo tofu, bitter gourd stuffed with meat, stir-fried lotus root slices.Zhou Du's taste is very strong, and of course, he has a slightly strong taste in certain things.He likes sour, spicy, and fragrant dishes, and he doesn't like to eat those dishes that list health.

"I'm not a monk!" Zhou Du always had good reasons. "It's not that no one cooks for you. Why do you want to live a bachelor's life? Life should be enjoyed!"

What now?Zhou Mi worked from around four o'clock in the afternoon until almost seven o'clock in the evening, and finally got the food ready.Zhou Mi dug out the old man's collection of wine and opened a bottle.Then he went upstairs happily and shouted: "Brother, it's time to eat!"

There was no movement above.

"Brother?" Zhou Mi knocked on the door calmly. "time to eat."

Nothing happened inside.

Zhou Mi knocked on the door slowly again: "Brother, you don't have to eat. I'm hungry until midnight, but I want to eat navel oranges."

Damn Chinese, is he talking about navel orange or riding?

Zhao Ying was defeated, and resigned herself to her fate, went downstairs, looked in the dining room, and was stunned.

"How is it?" Zhou Mi said happily: "I have been cooking for more than two hours, and they are all your favorites. I haven't cooked for you for a long time. Today..."

"My favorite?" Zhao Ying interrupted him with a wry smile, "I don't eat string beans, I don't eat spicy ones, and I hate bitter melon the most. And what's that fried with duck?"

"You don't even eat?" The smile on Zhou Mi's face froze for a moment, but soon recovered, but this smile was not as bright as before, it was a bit forced.He explained: "This is sour bamboo shoots. Don't you like fried duck with sour bamboo shoots?"

Zhao Ying frowned, her face was a little impatient, and her eyes almost said "here again".He closed his eyes, as if trying to suppress his anger, but he couldn't help it after all: "Zhou Mi, have you had enough?"

Zhou Mi was stunned: "What is enough?"

"Have you played the trick of treating me like Zhoudu enough?" Zhao Ying's expression was like a volcano that had been suppressed for 10,000+ years erupted overnight, and his anger was sprayed out like hot magma and flowed all over the ground, so No grass grows everywhere. "Zhou Mi, have you ever thought that I am a living person with self-awareness? I am Zhao Ying, not Zhou Du. Zhou Du is dead, and his bones are rotten after so many days..."

"Shut up!" Zhou Mi's face turned pale, and he said stubbornly, "You didn't! You didn't die! You stood in front of me!"

"The one standing in front of you is Zhao Ying! Zhou Mi died a long time ago!" Zhao Ying tried to turn his words into silver needles that opened the wound one by one, letting the pus and blood rotted in his heart flow out.He pointed to the fragrant dishes on the table and said: "Zhou Du likes to eat sour, I don't like it. Zhou Du eats bitter gourd, and I hate bitter gourd the most in my life. Zhou Du can eat spicy food, but when I eat spicy food, I get a stomachache. Zhou Mi, I originally thought that your love for Zhou Du was sincere and unique, but now it seems that you actually love the name Zhou Du, right? Otherwise, how could you lie to yourself that it is Zhou Du with just any man? You lack a man Missing like this?"

Zhou Mi has been listening to his words, his face is getting paler and paler, since the car accident, he has lost weight rapidly, and he has not recovered until now, his whole face is so thin that almost bones are left.After Zhao Ying finished speaking, his face was like a piece of white paper pasted on his skull, white and skinny, very glaring.Only those eyes were slender and slanted, and the eyeballs became darker and brighter.

"I won't admit my mistake." Zhou Mi insisted, his voice was a little trembling, he didn't know whether he was convincing himself or Zhao Ying.He ignored the hurtful words in Zhao Ying's words, and only focused on one thing: "I can misidentify everyone, but I will never misidentify you!"

"Then why didn't you admit your mistake when you first met me? You still keep trying to kill me?" Zhao Ying asked back, and sneered unceremoniously: "You just found that you couldn't persevere without hope, so you randomly found someone Support yourself as Zhou Du. Zhou Mi, you are too selfish! No one is willing to be a substitute, no one is willing to be forced, if you want to go crazy, it is your own business, don't drag others!"

"I'm not crazy..." Zhou Mi murmured, mist appeared in his eyes for a moment, but it disappeared quickly.He insisted: "I didn't admit my mistake, brother, I won't admit my mistake to you, don't deny it anymore, okay?"

Zhao Ying closed his eyes, he needs to wake up and avoid Zhou Mi.He had never hurt Zhou Mi like this before, they had quarreled and had cold wars before, and he even flew abroad and did not go home for more than a month in the name of a business trip.But no matter what, he never said anything that hurt his self-esteem to Zhou Mi.He protected Zhou Mi so well, but now he wants to cut off a piece of Zhou Mi's heart with his own hands.

He felt distressed, and what was cut off was his whole heart, but he couldn't help it.Because the piece of meat in Zhou Mi's heart has rotted, if he doesn't cut it off, Zhou Mi will be killed.

"Whatever you think, I don't care about you, you can do it if you want to be crazy." Zhao Ying said harsh words, turned around and left.

"Zhou Du!" Zhou Mi screamed, "If you dare to step outside the Zhou family, I will destroy the Zhou family!"

Zhao Ying didn't stop at all, and said coldly: "Whatever you want, how about the Zhou family, what's none of my business?"

"No!" Zhou Mi rushed forward to hug him from behind: "You are not allowed to leave!"

Zhao Ying grabbed his wrist and twisted it with his backhand, and then used his strength to push Zhou Mi, who was as skinny as a skeleton, far away, and fell to the dining table with a bang.He struggled to get up, but Zhao Ying had already opened the door.

"Brother—" Zhou Mi endured the severe pain in his waist, and let out a bloody roar.

"I'm not your brother." Zhao Ying said firmly, and left without hesitation.

Zhou Mi sat on the ground, and the room regained its tranquility. In the silent room, only his own heartbeat and breathing sounded together.He sat on the ground beside the dining table, the smell of the food slowly came, like a false and warm waiting.

"Ha..." Zhou Mi laughed, and tried to stand up while holding on to the legs of the chair. The first time he failed, the second time too, and the third time, he finally stood up with the chair.Zhou Mi said to himself: "It's okay, he must have some reason, that's why he doesn't recognize you. If he doesn't recognize you, don't force him, you just know that he is by your side. Even...even if he doesn't treat you well. Good luck."

Zhou Mi stood leaning against the table, trying to take a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.But, he, cold, quiet, no,——!

Zhao Ying pretended to be angry and slammed the door and left, but in fact the door slammed for real, but she didn't really go.He hid in a corner of the yard, secretly watching Zhou Mi in the dining room.

He discovered this corner when he was a child. Every time he quarreled with Zhou Ding, he would hide here and watch Aunt Zheng cook in the dining room. He estimated that the meal was almost ready, so he would go back and admit his mistake.If I made a mistake, I will steal some food by the way.Didn't expect to be able to observe Zhou Mi now.

When Zhao Ying found this corner, Zhou Mi had already stood up from the ground. He was standing beside the table with his fists clenched, his eyes closed, and he was taking a deep breath.This is his usual calming action, and it generally works well.But this time it obviously failed, Zhou Mi seemed to roar, the effect of the soundproof glass is too good, Zhao Ying didn't hear anything, he only saw Zhou Mi roaring and carefully cooking the dishes on the table for hours All were swept on the ground, and a large piece of bowls, chopsticks, cups and saucers were broken.

After the fall, Zhou Mi stood on the spot for a while, then suddenly seemed to be drained of strength, and sat down on the chair all at once.

Zhao Ying's heart skipped a beat—there was a broken porcelain plate on the stool!

Zhou Mi sat quietly or dumbfounded on the chair for a while, then suddenly covered his eyes with his hands, his shoulders trembled violently.

He is crying?An idea crossed Zhao Ying's mind, but Zhou Mi didn't. He seemed to just sigh, then walked to the storage room next to the kitchen, and came out with a wooden box.

That's... Zhao Ying's eyelids twitched, it was white wine!They are all liquors above 65 degrees!

Hello Zhoumi!Zhao Ying gritted her teeth so that her heart ached, and she even learned how to drink away her sorrows!Can baijiu be used casually to soothe one's worries?Are you afraid that if you drink too much, you will drink yourself to the hospital?

Of course Zhou Mi is not afraid, Zhou Mi is simply a man of action, he opened a bottle, and instead of going to the kitchen to get a cup, he picked up a broken cup from the floor and poured wine into it.The broken wine glass was not full, but Zhou Mi raised the wine glass to another seat on the dining table - that was the seat where Zhou Du often sat.

Then Zhou Mi gracefully drank the wine in the glass amidst the messy cups and plates on the floor, amidst the countless pieces of broken porcelain and cold dishes strewn all over the greasy ground.

Like a madman, but why is he mad?

Zhao Ying watched quietly, the cold wind was like a knife, cutting his heart one by one.
