60s Splendid Life

Lu Jin hugged their little baby and followed behind, washed the baby's hands and wiped his face, and then carried the little guy to the chair in the room to sit down.Under the watchful eyes of several children, he picked up a knife and cut the cake into small pieces, one for each child, not forgetting Grandma Shen's words, "Grandma, try it too and see if it tastes good."

"Good time!" Child Shen Xing had already eaten, and together with child Chenchen, they gave a big affirmation.

Little Bao'er and Qinglian were also eating cakes. The siblings had never eaten such delicious food, and they had happy smiles on their faces.

Especially Xiao Baoer, the expression on his face became richer.

Grandma Shen held the soft cake, smelled it delicious, tasted it, couldn't help but hum, looked at Lu Jin with a smile and said: "It's delicious, soft, fragrant, and a little Sweet. How did you make this cake, how did you make it so delicious." The conditions in their home are really good. Usually, their son and daughter-in-law will send her any good things, but the old lady also It was the first time she ate such a delicious cake, and she was also happy to see her grandson and several children eating so happily.

"It's made with flour and eggs. If you like it, I'll make it for you next time." The steps of making a cake are too complicated, and the old lady doesn't understand it, so Lu Jin didn't give too much details, and he also tasted it Take a bite of the cake you made yourself, it works normally, and the texture and taste are just right.But he didn't forget that there was another person in this room, and asked the old lady, "Grandma, where does Xing Xing's brother read? I'll send him a copy."

"His brother is in the study at the back, wait a minute, I'll make a pot of malted milk, and you can bring a cup here." Grandma Shen went to get the teapot and poured hot water into it, scooped a few tablespoons The malted milk went in and soaked in water, poured out a few cups for the grandson and a few children, and also poured a cup for Lu Jin.

Lu Jin didn't like drinking this thing very much, but he didn't refuse the old lady's kindness. He put his own cup on the table, picked up a cake and a cup of malted milk, and went to the study at the back. A boy in white clothes sitting in the study and reading a book.

The desk in the study was placed in front of the window, and the window was open. Shen Yu was sitting at the desk in front of the window, and there was a book on the desk reading.

"Knock Knock-"

Hearing the knock on the door, Shen Yu turned his head, and saw the person standing at the door of the study, saw something in his hand, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"I made a cake, and grandma's malted milk, let me bring you a cup..." Lu Jin didn't ask this person if he wanted it, because he knew that if he asked if he wanted it, the person probably meant No, let him take it back again, so he might as well just let this person not be able to refuse.He stood at the door and asked politely, "Do you need me to bring it in for you?"

Shen Yu put down the book in his hand, stood up from the chair he was sitting on, went over to take the plate and cup from Lu Jin's hand, and thanked him: "Thank you."

"You're welcome, so I won't bother you with your reading. You can continue reading. I'll make dinner. You can do your work. I'll ask you to eat when the dinner is ready." Lu Jin smiled and stepped back. Don't disturb other people's reading at all.Although he was quite envious when he saw the room full of books, but he didn't go in because no one invited him in. He still understands that.

Watching the back of the young man leaving, Shen Yu looked down at the cake in his hand.

Smelling a sweet smell, he raised his eyebrows. He put the cup of malted milk on the table, scooped out a piece of cake with a spoon and brought it to his mouth. He nodded his chin involuntarily: Hmm, the taste is okay?

"Let's put the leftover cakes for dinner at night. If we don't eat them, we will have dinner later. If we eat too many cakes, we won't be able to eat them for dinner."

"Yes, yes, don't eat too much, you have to have dinner later."

A few children ate half of a cake, and Lu Jin didn't give them any more because he was afraid that the children would not have to eat the cake for dinner.Grandma Shen also coaxed her grandson to stop eating, and coaxed the little grandson and several children to agree, then took the leftover cake and put it in the cabinet, thinking that she would take it out for the children to eat later.

The sun had set to the west, and the sun was gone outside the yard, so the children could finally come out to play outside.

The Shen family's small yard is quite large, and some flowers and plants are planted outside, and after a year, green shoots and leaves will grow out.There is also a small open space next to the wall, which was specially set aside by Grandma Shen to grow vegetables, but right now the field is still empty and nothing has been planted.

A few children were playing outside, and the old man sat on a stool and took care of the soles of his shoes. He sewed them very carefully, and the size should be the size of the children's clothes.

Little Bao'er was sitting on the ground, holding a small car in his hand and sliding around on the ground to play.Lu Qinglian also squatted on the ground to play with the little brother with the car, you pushed me over, the two siblings had a great time.

"Heh heh haha... Take your life!"

The two children, Shen Xing and Chenchen, wielded big knives and shields and slashed at each other. One shouted "I am the general" and the other shouted "I am the general"...

"..." I'm still the king of heaven!

It made Lu Jin's head ache to see it, but fortunately, it was the shield held by their child and the wooden knife held by Shen Xing's child. Unless the child chopped himself off, nothing would happen.Seeing that there was nothing else to do at the moment, he was going to make their dinner, and went to the old lady and said, "Grandma, I'm going to make dinner, you stay here and watch them."

"Grandma, let's do it, you are here to play with them." Grandma Shen stopped the needle in her hand, and was about to get up to cook.

"No, no, grandma, I'll just do it. I'm quick with my hands and feet, and I can do it soon." Lu Jin said.

"Hehe, that's fine. I'll go and see with you and tell you what's there." Grandma Shen put the half-filled shoe soles back into the basket, and took them to the house to put them away.

Taking advantage of this time, Lu Jin told the little girl in their family to watch her younger brother cook outside.Lu Qinglian said hello, and as soon as Xiaobao heard that her brother was leaving, she crawled over and hugged her brother's leg, wanting to follow him.Looking at the pendant on his feet, Lu Jin couldn't laugh or cry, squatted down to coax the child and said, "You are playing with your sister outside, and my brother will cook something delicious for you."

When the old lady put away her things and came out of the house, he also coaxed the sticky little thing away, and followed the old lady to the kitchen.

The old lady dug out a lot of things from the kitchen and told him that they could all be cooked and eaten.

Only then did Lu Jin realize that the cabinet was full of food. It seemed that the life of the Shen family was really good. The rice tank was full of rice, and there was also a cabinet full of dried bacon. Many families did not have such a What a wonderful thing.Of course, he didn't have any bad intentions when he saw these things. Others lent them a house for them to live in. If they dared to have any bad intentions, they would really be inhumane.

When they came, they brought a basket of red dates, which was given to them by Uncle Liu, so they didn't bring anything else.

Originally, he was thinking about going out to buy what he lacked, mainly because they didn't lack anything. Others didn't know, but he knew it himself. He had everything to eat in his own space, enough for them to eat for a while.But now when he comes to someone else's house, he still has to get two bags of rice out of the space when he turns back. Otherwise, the brothers and sisters live in other people's houses, and they don't need money or food. It was eaten up.

They still had half a bowl of meat left at noon, and one piece for each person would definitely not be enough, so Lu Jin suggested frying that bowl of meat with vegetables, and the old lady had no objection to this.

"I'll make another vegetable bag, cook winter melon soup, and steam rice. Dinner is almost done."

"Yes, you can do it, I believe in your craftsmanship."

After eating the meal at noon, Grandma Shen knew that Lu Jin's cooking skills were really good, not only better than her grandson's cooking skills, but also much better than her old lady's cooking skills, so At this moment, Lu Jin said that she would agree to whatever she wanted, anyway, the kitchen stuff was here, and she could do whatever the other party wanted.

The old lady said she would stay and help set the fire, but Lu Jin said no, Shen Yu came over just at this time.

"Grandma, go outside, I'll just come." Shen Yu said.

"Okay, okay, then you all come." Seeing that the eldest grandson was coming to help with work, Grandma Shen smiled and went outside.

Lu Jin was a little surprised by Shen Yu's arrival, obviously he told this person that he would make dinner and he didn't need his help?Why are you still here?

"What are you doing standing there? Didn't you mean cooking?" Shen Yu put the plates and cups in his hand into the sink, scooped a little water from the sink to wash them, and put them on the shelf on the window sill.

"Ah... oh!" Lu Jin snapped back to his senses, and only then did he move his eyes away from the other's slender fingers, and found that he was staring at other people's hands in a daze, his face suddenly became hot, and he replied: " That's right, let's cook."

"I'll soak these things first."

The old lady brought out some dry goods just now, including black fungus and shiitake yuba. He grabbed a handful of fungus and shiitake yuba, put them in a bowl and soaked them first, and they will use them later.Then I went to find a big bowl and poured some flour into it, poured some water into it and saw that the person next to him was standing there with nothing to do, so he asked, "Are you here to make it?"

Shen Yu hummed, went over to take over, kneaded the dough as he had seen Lu Jin do just now, and looked at Lu Jin uncertainly.

"That's right, just knead like this. Knead first, and I'll tell you when it's ready." Lu Jin went to prepare other things.

...Oh, by the way, the rice must be steamed first!

Lu Jin found four small bowls, filled each bowl with rice, put some water in it to wash it, put in an appropriate amount of water, then put the bowls in the steamer, met Shen Yu's gaze, He explained: "In the future, if you want to cook, you can steam it like this. Use your middle finger to measure the water, which is almost to the line in the first section. Steaming rice will be easier than cooking it directly in a pot. It’s so easy to burn the bottom.” Nowadays, firewood is used for cooking, and if you don’t control it a little bit, the rice will be burnt, so steaming rice is much easier.

Shen Yu nodded expressionlessly, and remembered what the young man told him. Since then, cooking has never burned the bottom of the pot.
