Zhou Xiaoyun’s Happy Life

Chapter 257 Cooking Skills

Zhou Xiaoyun’s first menstrual period lasted for more than a week, and it was really irritating and depressing to have this time again in the hot and stuffy summer.

Zhao Yuzhen comforted Zhou Xiaoyun and said: "It always takes longer for a girl to come here for the first time, but it won't happen in the future, up to four or five days."

Zhou Xiaoyun certainly knew, but he was still very annoyed.

I have a dull pain in my stomach, and I always feel uncomfortable walking. I have to go to the toilet after a while. I can only take a shower while standing in the shower, and I can't eat anything cold...

Being a woman is really annoying. I have to do this once a month from now on. It’s too frustrating.

Zhou Xiaoyun began to miss the past days. How good the children were, how could there be so many worries.

 Thank God, it finally ended on the ninth day. When Zhou Xiaoyun looked in the mirror, he felt that his complexion was far less rosy than before, and it seemed that he needed more replenishment.

Dabao came back during this period and proudly told his family that he had passed the preliminaries and would be able to participate in the city's preliminary rounds in a while.

 Erya spends the least time at home and is often taken out to play by her friends.

Xiaobao went out much less often than Erya. Zhou Xiaoyun persuaded him to go out more and communicate with peers. Xiaobao said helplessly: "Sister, it's not that I don't want to go out, but that all my classmates and friends go home for the summer vacation." No one is playing!"

Furthermore, Xiaobao has very few close friends. He is the kind of person in the class who is popular but never takes the initiative to talk to others - similar to Zhou Xiaoyun.

Zhou Xiaoyun stays at home and blows on the electric fan every day. The big electric fan hanging on the ceiling makes an earth-shattering sound when it spins, but the wind it blows out is always hot. If you turn it off, it will be even hotter.

Zhou Xiaoyun came up with a good idea. Mop the floor with more water on the mop, and the air in the room will be much cooler. When the fan blows again, it is indeed much cooler.

 Before school started, Dabao finally finished the training camp and went home to rest for more than ten days.

Dabao proudly announced that he had finished first in the city’s preliminary competition and was firmly selected. He was the most favored seed player by the teacher.

 Zhou Xiaoyun was sincerely happy for Dabao.

Dabao no longer goes to bathe in the pond as he gets older. How can such an old person take off his clothes and go swimming again without being laughed at by others?

However, it’s really boring to stay at home when the weather is so hot.

At dusk, Dabao encouraged Xiaobao to go to the street to play billiards with him. Xiaobao was not interested in this and refused to go. Seeing that Dabao couldn't drag Xiaobao away, he felt bored and teased Xiaobao for being a "nerd".

Before he finished speaking, he saw two pairs of eyes staring at him.

 A pair belonged to Zhou Xiaoyun, and she glared at Dabao angrily. This big treasure, I don’t like to study but I want to take my little one with me. Playing billiards is also very addictive. Many boys neglect their studies by playing billiards. The harm is only that of playing game consoles.

One pair belonged to Xiaobao, and Xiaobao replied: "I am a nerd, but not everyone can be a nerd. 'Some people' are stupid and can only read storybooks and martial arts novels. I guess they are a little deeper and have more connotations." I can’t even understand it. Even if you want to be a nerd, you can’t do it!”

 After finishing speaking, Xiaobao sighed and shook his head, looking distressed, while Dabao gritted his teeth in anger.

How can Xiaobao be a match for this bickering!

Dabao had no choice but to turn his target to Zhou Zhihai, and now he had found a close friend. Zhou Zhihai, a fellow fan, his eyes lit up when he heard about playing billiards. He and Dabao went out on the street around three or four o'clock when the sun was not very strong, and refused to come back until dark for dinner.

Dabao wanted to leave after dinner, but Zhou Xiaoyun saw him and immediately stopped him.

The words gave Dabao a huge headache and he just stayed at home, watching TV and reading novels.

There are many books on Zhou Xiaoyun's bookshelf. Zhou Xiaoyun is usually busy studying and has not read many books. Now he just has time. Apart from eating and sleeping, he just reads books all day long.

Zhou Xiaoyun finished writing in his thick hard-covered notebook and changed it to another one. Whenever he felt like it, he would write prose, essays, poems, whatever came to mind.

 If what you do is your hobby, then you must be happy to do it and never feel tired.

Zhou Xiaoyun is like this. Not only does he not feel tired, but he feels particularly comfortable and happy.

This summer has been quite comfortable.

Zhou Xiaoyun once again acted as the chef at home. Zhao Yuzhen had no worries and it didn't matter no matter how late she got home. Anyway, she had ready-made meals at home. Moreover, Zhou Xiaoyun's cooking is particularly delicious and is definitely not inferior to Zhao Yuzhen's.

Zhou Xiaoyun likes to put some effort and thought into cooking. He is also very happy when he sees his brothers and sisters eating happily.

For example, boil the rolled noodles, take them out and put them in water to cool down, mix them with some cucumber slices, mung bean sprouts, add salt, vinegar, soy sauce, and pour some salad oil to make cold noodles, which is refreshing and delicious.

 Dabao, a big eater, can eat two or three bowls by himself. While eating, he shouted that it was delicious and wanted another bowl. Zhou Xiaoyun looked angry and funny: "Brother, eat slowly, don't choke again."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Dabao crouching his neck and gesticulating for a drink of water.

Zhou Xiaoyun didn't have time to pour the hot water and scooped a bowl of cold water to Dabao. Dabao took a big gulp before swallowing it.

Xiaobao fell down laughing, and Erya also giggled.

 In addition to cold noodles, Zhou Xiaoyun also likes to make fried noodles.

 The steps to cook and cool the noodles are the same as before. Then prepare some light vegetarian vegetables such as bean sprouts, potatoes, shredded celery, etc. After adding oil to the pot, add some green onion, peanuts and **** and saute until fragrant. Quickly add the vegetarian vegetables to the pot and stir-fry.

 When the vegetables are almost cooked, put the noodles in the pot and stir-fry twice, then add some salt and MSG and it's done.

 The fried noodles sold in restaurants are too greasy and make you feel tired after just a few bites, but the noodles cooked by Zhou Xiaoyun are light and refreshing and more delicious.

 Xiaobao loves this kind of fried noodles the most.

Dabao Moji asked Zhou Xiaoyun to add some shredded pork when frying the noodles. He was a standard carnivore. If he didn't eat meat for two meals, he would feel that there was no oil in his stomach and no taste in his mouth.

 Shredded pork, there are plenty of it at home. Sometimes you can also order pork liver fried noodles, pork kidney fried noodles and so on.

Erya shouted while eating: "It would be great if my sister cooked for us at home every day. It would be much more delicious than what my mother cooks."

Zhou Xiaoyun felt comfortable all over after being flattered by him.

However, Zhou Xiaoyun knew very well that Erya's words were unreliable, and he would probably change to "Mom's cooking is the best" in front of Zhao Yuzhen. hehe!

 Egg fried rice, noodle soup, sweet potato porridge, green vegetable and salted rice porridge, all are delicious in new ways. Even Zhou Xiaoyun feels that his cooking skills have improved greatly recently.

No, Zhou Xiaoyun started to imitate her grandma and make some pasta when she had nothing to do.

A man from Chuanxiang who made iron pans passed by. Zhou Xiaoyun asked the vendor to make a thick pan and put it on the gas stove. Pancakes and other pancakes were convenient and delicious.

Zhou Xiaoyun likes to make egg pancakes the most. After the pancakes are spread, crack an egg and spread it on top. It tastes fragrant. However, once I started making this, it was endless, and I had to be busy at the pot for a long time. As soon as the pot came out, the two brothers over there started grabbing it.

Erya had a sad face and couldn't help. Zhou Xiaoyun felt sorry for his sister, so he rolled up the prepared egg pancake and gave it to her sister, which made Erya happy.
