Chapter 10 Hometown Cuisine

It was rare that Gu Luochen took the initiative to ask him what he wanted to eat, so how could he be worthy of himself if he didn't make things difficult for him?

Kang Yun rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "I want to eat steamed Wuchang fish, fried bacon with red cabbage moss, stewed chicken in a crock pot, steamed pork with Huangpi sugar, pearl balls, and... pork ribs and lotus root soup."

These are all classic E dishes. When I was a child in my hometown in Hankou, although the family was not rich, my grandmother would sit him on a large table with sumptuous dishes every New Year’s Day. In summer and autumn, when I came home from school every night, my grandmother would Simmer a pot of lotus root soup and keep it for him to drink when he comes back.Later, when his grandmother passed away, he went into exile in various parts of Southeast Asia. He experienced all kinds of hardships and tasted all kinds of delicacies.

There are many Chinese in Southeast Asia. In history, in times of trouble, many people chose to go to Nanyang, but most of them were from coastal provinces such as Guangdong and Fujian.Many Cantonese and Fujian cuisines have been integrated into the local eating habits of Southeast Asian countries, and there are also many authentic Cantonese and Fujian cuisine restaurants. However, he has not eaten E cuisine, which is rich in juice, bright in taste and mellow in taste, for many, many years.

After Kang Jun finished speaking, she looked at Gu Luochen with provocative eyes, waiting for him to succumb and say that he couldn't do it. Unexpectedly, Gu Luochen glanced at him, with a faint smile on his lips, he took it from the hanger. He took off his coat and put it in his arms: "Let's go, go shopping."

Kang Yun: "..."

Until a table full of fragrant E dishes was placed on the table, Kang Yun still couldn't believe his eyes.Fragrant and delicious steamed fish, fragrant crock pot stewed chicken, sweet and delicious sugar steamed meat, pearl balls with rice fragrance, spicy and crisp red cabbage moss with light smoky bacon, and The pork ribs and lotus root soup simmering on a small fire, the lotus root is sweet and meaty, and the aroma is gurgling on the fire, just smelling it makes people salivate.

"You can't buy authentic Wuchang bream in this place, only silver carp and grass carp, and red cabbage moss is not as crisp and fresh as back home, so let's just eat it." Gu Luochen took off his apron and walked over, hitting his paw with chopsticks, " Go wash your hands."

Kang Jun avoided the chopsticks, quickly grabbed a pearl ball, stuffed it into his mouth, and smiled provocatively at Gu Luochen while chewing: "I lost my memory, I forgot how to wash my hands."

Gu Luochen glanced at him lightly: "Why don't you forget how to eat?" Then he dragged him to the bathroom to wash his paws.

"Although I haven't forgotten how to eat," Kang Yun said with a smile while being dragged away by him, "but I forgot how to use chopsticks. Can you feed me?"

"..."

Gu Luochen turned on the faucet, took his paws and washed them under the running water, and then soaped him.Kang Yun's hands are very small, and they feel fleshy and soft to the touch. There is only a thin layer of calluses on the tiger's mouth, and all ten nails are painted with scarlet nail polish, which looks a bit dazzling.

Gu Luochen frowned slightly, and while turning on the tap, he said, "What kind of nail polish should you put on properly?" He said "crash clatter" to wash off the foam on his hands, took out a dry towel and threw it on his hands: "Like a monkey butt."

Kang Yun: "..."

He dried his hands and looked down at his paws. His fingers were as white as jade and as bright red as blood. They were as beautiful as red plums in the snow. Except that they were all red, he couldn't think of anything in common with monkey butts. .

Kang Jun said that he didn't know how to use chopsticks. Gu Luochen knew that he was acting like a monster, but he actually fed him with food with chopsticks, and even picked out the thorns from the fish one by one.However, after only a few mouthfuls of feeding, Kang Yun felt that his speed was too slow and not enjoyable enough, and suddenly "recovered his memory" to do it himself, and couldn't wait to taste every dish.Although the materials prepared temporarily are not complete, the taste of each dish is quite authentic. The familiar taste of the hometown stimulates the hidden memory taste buds, brewing an unspeakable taste of happiness.He wiped out more than half of them in one go, then put down his chopsticks and let out a sigh of satisfaction: "Are you from Hubei too?"

"My grandfather is from Wuhan, and I grew up with him in Hankou." Gu Luochen filled a large bowl of lotus root soup and handed it to him, "Isn't it because I can cook hometown food that forced me to marry you, baby? Forgot such an important thing, it seems...you really lost your memory again."

Kang Yun: "..."

He took the soup and blew it lightly, and took a sip. The familiar glutinous and sweetness of the safflower lotus root paired with the rich taste of the pork ribs made him feel like weeping.He sipped the lotus root soup in small sips, and looked down at the oily flowers floating on the surface of the soup: "When I was young, my family was very poor. My grandmother bought the leftover broken bones and lotus root tips from the butcher shop, and took them early after lunch. Choshi simmers until I come home from school..." He paused here, and smiled very lightly: "A few years ago, I heard a song on the Internet by chance, and I sang it to you. Listen to me?"

Gu Luochen looked down into his eyes, the expression in his eyes was bottomless, after a while, he nodded and said: "Okay."

Holding the warm lotus root soup in both hands, Kang Jun lowered his head and hummed softly in his long-lost local accent: "I haven't been home for ten years, and I miss Jiajia (grandmother) every day, and Jiajia is waiting for me every day. I can go home. I always keep a big bowl of lotus root soup simmered by Chozi. After eating, I wait for her grandchildren in the garden. Wintersweet flowers in winter and gardenias in summer. There are people on sunny days and rainy days. It’s a baby. Wintersweet flowers in winter, pomegranate flowers in summer, those who pass by to see the scenery, those who live at home sell green tea...”【Note 1】

His timbre is lighter and softer than that of ordinary men, but not as sharp as that of women. When he sings with a low voice, there is even a hint of hoarseness. The two timbres are mixed together, brewing an indescribable lingering and moving taste .After he finished singing, he looked up at Gu Luochen and smiled: "Do I sing well?"

"Ah."

The little girl's eyes were shining brightly, and tears slid down from the corners of her eyes in a blink of an eye. Gu Luochen wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes for him: "Don't cry." After a while, he asked again: "Are you full?"

Kang Yun nodded.

Then he heard Demon King Gu say: "Then hurry up and do the dishes!"

"..."

The little bit of emotion that had just grown in my heart disappeared in an instant. Kang Yun wiped away her tears with her hand, and smiled innocently: "Oh, I lost my memory. I forgot how to wash the dishes."

"It's okay." Gu Luochen's eyes darkened slightly, "I can teach you."

Gu Luochen dragged him to the sink, gently tied the apron on him, stuffed the sponge into his hand, then half hugged him from behind, grasped his hand with both hands and moved slowly, while bowing his head in his ear Say: "Put the dish soap first, and then wipe along the sides of the bowl like this, first inside, then outside, and finally turn on the tap to rinse off the foam. Got it?"

Kang Yun felt that Gu Luochen was clinging to his body from behind, pressing him tightly against the sink, breathing faintly behind his ears when speaking, and his elbows slipping from the sensitive area of ​​his waist, intentionally or not. After rubbing, he held his hand and kneaded his fingers lightly, not too lightly, and within a moment he felt weak all over, his center was hot, and his breath became a little short.

Kang Yun dropped the dish towel with a "slap": "I won't wash it!"

"That can't be done," Gu Luochen lowered his head slightly, brushed his lips lightly over his ear, and said in a low voice, "If you don't know how to wash dishes, how can you be a qualified wife?"

"..." Kang Yun gritted her teeth, "I'll wash it myself, can the head office do it?"

Gu Luochen refused straight away: "No, you lost your memory and forgot how to wash the dishes."

Kang Yun: "..."

He felt that sometimes Gu Luochen looked like a deep city, so dangerous that he couldn't help but feel chills in his heart, but sometimes... he didn't know how to describe it, it seemed... a little childish?

When he thought of this, he suddenly laughed, turned around and hooked Gu Luochen's neck: "My husband, don't be so arrogant, just say it if you want to have sex with me, huh?" a mouthful.

Gu Luochen seemed to be grinding his teeth, picked him up, and threw him on the sofa in the living room.Kang Yun let out a low □□, bent one knee, put on a very seductive pose, and winked at him lazily.

However, Gu Luochen had already turned around and went to the kitchen without looking sideways. After a while, there was the sound of "splashing" water, and it was actually time to wash the dishes.

Kang Yun let out a long sigh of relief, becoming more and more confused about what Gu Luochen wanted to do.If he said that he didn't like him at all, Gu Luochen would tease him from time to time, if he really liked him, but every time he just stepped in and left him there.

A mysterious man with a confusing purpose.

After a while, Kang Jun got up from the sofa, went to the bathroom on the second floor to take a shower, did a whole set of skin care procedures, and then walked out of the bathroom with a pale mask face, just in time to meet Gu Luochen who had finished cleaning up .

Gu Luochen took a cup of steaming milk, and frowned when he saw his appearance: "Drink it."

Kang Yun pointed to her face, indicating that it was inconvenient.

Gu Luochen came over, lifted his mask, poured it in for him without any explanation, and finally put the mask down and patted it, the essence splashed everywhere.

The corner of Kang Yun's mouth twitched. He took off the severely deformed mask and threw it into the trash can. He was about to go back to the bedroom, but Gu Luochen grabbed one hand and dragged him to the study room. He shook off the towel, wrapped him up, and threw him on the sofa bed: "Go to bed early, we have class tomorrow." After speaking, he turned around and walked outside.

"Wait a minute," Kang Yun suddenly thought that he still had some damn homework to do, so he reached out and grabbed Gu Luochen's arm, "The teacher left homework, and he needs to weave a scarf, which is due in class tomorrow. But I can only weave like this." He Wrapped in a towel, he jumped downstairs like a zombie, took out a messy crumpled dime from his trouser pocket, brought it up and handed it to Gu Luochen.

Gu Luochen's face seemed to be stiff for a moment: "It's okay, you don't have to do your homework."

Kang Yun sniffed and put on a pitiful look: "If you don't finish it, you will get an electric shock."

"Don't worry," Gu Luochen reached out and rubbed his soft curly hair, "They dare not."

Kang Yun grabbed his arm and continued to act like a baby: "I don't care, I'm afraid. Husband~~~"

Gu Luochen looked down at him, with a hint of helplessness in his expression, and finally sighed: "Go to sleep. I'll come."
