Chapter 136: Only treat him well
If someone else was changed, Xu Qiao would have sent him away coldly. After all, the store has a cold pot and a cold stove, so it is not worth firing for someone.
But looking at Li Chi's fire uniform, his face was a little dirty and dusty, as if he had just returned from a mission, he couldn't say anything he said about his refusal, and he was silent: "What do you want to eat?"
Li Chi smiled honestly: "Anything is OK, it depends on your convenience."
Xu Qiao sighed in her heart, is it inconvenient?
"Then let's eat noodles."
He said that, he took Li Chi to the main entrance and opened the store to let Li Chi sit. She went to the kitchen to see what food there was.
It was already the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, but the streets were particularly cold and empty.
Li Chi sat in the store for a while, got up and went to the kitchen, leaned against the door frame and watched Xu Qiao busy. Under the warm yellow light, the thin man was cutting vegetables seriously and focused on holding a kitchen knife, which was a little vivid and warm.
"Where do you celebrate the Chinese New Year?" Li Chi endured it for a long time before speaking out.
"It's here." Xu Qiao didn't look up. She knew that Li Chi was standing at the door, just not wanting to chat.
"Where is your family? Are you here to celebrate the New Year? Will it open during the Spring Festival?"
"I don't have family and I won't open during the Spring Festival." Xu Qiao's answer was simple and clear.
Li Chi was stunned: "I'm sorry."
"Yeah, it's okay."
Li Chi was originally a very chatty person, but he got stuck at Xu Qiao. After thinking for a while, he didn't know what to say, so he went back silently to sit down.
Xu Qiao neatly stir-fryed eggs and tomatoes, cooked noodles, and mixed them with shredded green bamboo shoots.
Although the meal is very simple, the color combination is very good. The warm red of tomatoes, the seductive yellow of eggs, and the green and green bamboo shoots are dripping. Let's look at it together and make people feel appetite.
Li Chi praised repeatedly: "The skills in your store are really nothing to say. Just tomato and egg noodles. I go to another restaurant to eat them. I think it's not good and it's too unpalatable."
Xu Qiao just smiled and didn't say anything. She sat in the bar and looked through the story about Zhou Yansheng throwing it here.
Li Chi ate very slowly, and he couldn't help but peek at Xu Qiao while eating. This girl felt relieved.
Gu Chengchuan saw this scene through the glass door. Under the quiet light, Xu Qiao supported her chin and read quietly. The man opposite her was eating noodles while looking at her.
This picture is a bit dazzling.
I don't want to push the door in.
Xu Qiao heard the door ringing and looked up in surprise. When she saw that it was Gu Chengchuan, her indifferent little face suddenly became much more enthusiastic: "Gu Chengchuan, why are you here? Didn't you say you are very busy during the Chinese New Year? Are you eating? There are some pigeon soup stewed for Yiyi. I will heat it up for you. If you don't hurry, I will make some chicken sauce wontons for you."
Li Chi looked at the noodles in the bowl, then looked at the smile on Xu Qiao's face, as if he understood something. He put down his chopsticks and stood up to say hello to Gu Chengchuan: "Squadron Gu!" He said with a little excited tone.
He admires Gu Chengchuan very much. In the fire newspapers over the years, you can often see Gu Chengchuan's fire rescue experience and analysis, the frequent occurrence and causes of hidden dangers and fires, etc.
Gu Chengchuan is the benchmark in his heart, the object he is working hard to learn and get close to, so now he is as excited as seeing Gu Chengchuan.
Gu Chengchuan nodded slightly: "Sit down and eat, don't be so polite." Then he looked at Xu Qiao deeply: "No, I just passed by and saw the lights on in the store, and I came over to take a look."
Xu Qiao was a little confused by this glance, and always felt that she had done something wrong. When she heard that Gu Chengchuan was just passing by and was about to leave, she hurriedly came out of the bar: "You can wait a while, five minutes, five minutes."
Gu Chengchuan stood still and watched Xu Qiao running into the kitchen in a hurry.
After not being able to make anything in five minutes, Xu Qiao looked around in the kitchen and decided to make a quick omelette.
First, I went to preheat the microwave, then quickly washed and diced a small piece of carrots, took out some diced peas, and then took out a piece of sausage and cut it into small diced diced diced diced diced quilts. The speed of the knife was fast and fast, and it was like a galloping past thousands of horses.
Cut various diced vegetables and add clean oil and mix well. Add a tablespoon of previously fried meat sauce. Mix well and pour it into a container and quickly put it in the microwave. High heat for two minutes.
Then beat the egg liquid and when the time comes, pour the egg liquid into the container and shake it quickly. Put it in the microwave and continue to heat up for one minute.
Even if the egg cake with a salty and spicy flavor was out of the pot, Xu Qiao quickly turned it over and poured it into another lunch box, and used a knife to scratch a few horizontally and vertically. She hurriedly took it to Gu Chengchuan.
Seeing Gu Chengchuan and Li Chi standing at the door chatting, I felt relieved, and then I found that there was a fine sweat oozing out of my forehead, for fear that Gu Chengchuan would leave in a hurry.
"Time is so tight, so I made a simple cured egg pancake, which is very nutritious and delicious." Xu Qiao said as she held the colorful egg pancake in front of Gu Chengchuan like a treasure.
A salty, fresh and rich aroma comes to the nose, and the egg cake is tempting in color and mouth-watering.
Gu Chengchuan lowered his eyes and looked at it, then raised his eyes and was filled with tiny charming light and a faint warm smile: "It looks delicious."
Xu Qiao nodded confidently: "It tastes better. If you are in a hurry, take the food on the way. You must be full at night! There are many people setting off fireworks at night, so you must be busier. So don't forget to eat... It's not good for the stomach after a long time..."
He was reminded in slight scatteredly, like a virtuous little wife.
Li Chi looked around and felt a little disappointed, and this loss just flashed by.
Gu Chengchuan took the lunch box, and his other hand brushed the sweaty hair on Xu Qiao's forehead: "Okay, I remember. You go to rest early, remember to lock the door tonight. Remember to close the fire."
The fingertips slashed across his forehead, and there was a numb and itchy feeling that made Xu Qiao unable to help but shrink her neck and salutely saluted: "Don't worry, I will definitely pay attention to fire safety."
Gu Chengchuan couldn't help but smile deeper, and naturally rubbed Xu Qiao's head lightly: "Okay, we're leaving. You can close the store and go back to rest."
Li Chi looked at the interaction between the two, intimate and warm, thinking that he might call Mrs. Xu Qiao next time he came, he might call her sister-in-law?
Xu Qiao stood at the door and watched Gu Chengchuan get into the car. The car was sank into the dark night before she reluctantly turned around and closed the store.
Gu Chengchuan got into the car, was silent for a while before opening the lunch box, took out the disposable fork prepared beside him, and put a piece of egg cake into his mouth. It was warm and delicate and crispy. It was like the girl's personality, delicate and strong.
It’s a pity that I couldn’t taste the taste... I lowered my eyes in disappointment.
