Chapter 221 To Save
If she wants to eat white rice with thin strips of sweet potato and steam it together, Xiao Tong and Xiao Yi will have no objection.
Anyway, the two had always followed Ye Yuxuan's taste.
The clanging sound of cooking soon came from the kitchen.
In view of his ability to burn the kitchen, and the house is rented, Ye Yuxuan would not interfere with the kitchen, what to eat, and prepare the ingredients, just talk to Xiao Yi and Tong.
When Xiao Yi came back with a few catties of fine grains and a sack of non-staple food, Xiao Tong also made lunch.
Don't look at a sack of non-staple food, it seems that there are a lot of non-staple foods, but this is to buy all the servings and plan to eat for a month. This is the ration of Xiao Yi and Xiao Tong. Ye Yuxuan's new non-staple food ticket issued this month is still in her hands. Inside.
The non-staple food stores are still serving vegetables back and forth, potatoes, cabbage, white radish, and one more person and three catties of pumpkin this month.
Ye Yuxuan was watching when Xiaoyi packed the things he bought back, and after thinking about it, she turned out her own non-staple food stamps and food stamps, leaving only seven catties of food stamps. Pass the rest to Xiao Yi.
"Sister Ye?" What is this.
"It is estimated that there will be a lot of people buying food tomorrow. I am too lazy to rush there early in the morning, aren't you going for the afternoon shift tomorrow? That's right, you can buy food in the morning." After a
pause, Ye Yuxuan said again: "You don't want to buy it. Okay, the food at home seems to be enough right now. You can keep these and exchange them for new ones when the time comes. You can know what to buy when the time comes."
She is really impatient to make these things. If you say, go. Ye Yuxuan was naturally willing to go to the department store to buy things in the supermarket, but to go to the grain station in a long queue just to buy the few catties of grain, Ye Yuxuan was lazy.
Ye Yuxuan knew that Xiao Yi had a salary, and she got most of the meat, fish and vegetables in the family. If she had to pay for a few catties of grain, it would be easy to promote Mien and fight Mien.
Xiao Yi paid the rent, and Ye Yuxuan naturally paid for the fuel costs such as water, electricity, briquette, etc. Of course, she got most of the food.
Actually speaking, Ye Yuxuan really didn't treat Xiaoyi and Xiaotong badly when it came to food and clothing. They would eat whatever she ate, not to mention milk and malted milk extract. She would also prepare snacks for them. Ye Yuxuan also changed two or three sets of clothes.
These will cost a lot of money at this time, and there are still a lot of food that can't be bought by money.
Xiao Yi didn't take it, but said, "Sister Ye, take it. There are a lot of food and vegetables in the house. I can eat for a while. There is no need to rush to buy it. I need it next month. My elder sister just speaks."
"I bought the non-staple food in no hurry. Eat the one I bought today, and wait
until the middle of the month is gone, then buy it, maybe there will be fresh ones." Seeing him say that, Ye Yuxuan thought about it and closed it. Woke up.

If you don't buy it, don't buy it. She thinks and knows what the food supplied by the grain station is.
Xiaotong's current cooking skills are getting better and better. Although he only burned three dishes and one soup, the beef stew with potatoes tastes just right, the scrambled eggs are also very tender, the vinegared cabbage is appetizing, and the rapeseed in the rapeseed soup is green and oily. , Also very good.
After the three of them had dinner, Ye Yuxuan went back to her room to rest.
Only then did Xiao Yi see the things Ye Yuxuan bought with Xiao Tong.
"Didn't you say, just buy some stationery?" Xiao Yi was surprised, and his gaze at his younger brother brought a hint of suspicion.
"It's not what I wanted, but my sister took the initiative to buy it for me."
Xiaotong didn't know what his brother suspected. He felt that he was disobedient, so he bought it for his sister, right?
What is a word called, holding pet and spoiled?
It seems to say that.
In fact, if Xiao Tong hadn't been following Ye Yuxuan all the time, he would have doubted that he was such a person.
"Then you can't..." Xiao Yi said halfway, shook his head, and shut up. He also felt that his younger brother was not such a disproportionate person. He thought it was Sister Ye who felt sorry for his younger brother and spent money like this.
"The money is spent, you won't give up halfway, will you?"
Xiao Tong immediately shook his head and said firmly: "I must study hard and not let my sister's expectations be disappointed."
Looking at yesterday, I was thinking about how to convince Sister Ye to go to school. Tong would say so firmly that he must work hard, Xiao Yi suddenly understood why Sister Ye had to spend so much money on these things.
"Brother, you have a piece of cake, too." Xiao Tong said, taking apart a box of cream cake and handing it over.
Xiao Yi said that he didn't eat it. It was obvious that his younger brother had already taken it apart. After thinking about it, he took it, pulled a piece, tasted it, and then covered the rest: "I just ate, where can I eat it? These."
Xiao Tong didn't care, and asked: "How?"
"The yogurt bun is delicious." This cream cake is sweet and greasy.
"I feel so too." Xiao Tong's face was suddenly relieved. It was not his illusion, but the taste of this butter cake was ordinary.
If someone knows Xiaotong's thoughts, they are afraid that they will jump their feet in anger, they will not be able to eat them.
"This piece of cake is two yuan."
Xiao Yi glanced down: "..." I heard my brother said that he had eaten one piece outside before, that is to say, bought a cream cake for twenty yuan?
Adding other things...Xiao Yi looked at his younger brother, and after a few seconds, he said, "Next, save a little bit, so that Sister Ye won't have to buy things frequently."
Xiao Tong naturally had no objection, and nodded repeatedly.
"When the spring starts and the weather is better, I will go up the mountain to get some stuff." After that, I will go up the mountain, but I don't want to grab the game and sell it on the black market, but keep it at home to eat, and save sister Ye's money. Trusted to buy.

Ye Yuxuan didn't know at all, she just brought Xiaotong to buy some things, so that they both planned to save some food, lest she had no money in her hands.
After Ye Yuxuan woke up, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.
After drinking some water, after watching for half an hour, I went out bored by myself.
Xiao Tong was practicing writing at home, which was arranged by Ye Yuxuan, and he couldn't keep up.
After waiting an hour, when Ye Yuxuan came back, she carried a chicken and a duck in her hand, all of which had been processed.
Xiao Yi didn't go to work today. The grain station and non-staple food store bought almost in the morning. Naturally, he didn't go out. Ye Yuxuan handed it over after returning, curiously took it, opened it, and was surprised.
Ye Yuxuan said without waiting for him to speak.
"You can do anything for dinner, but I want to have a coke stewed duck. I didn't ask for other dishes." Since she said she wanted to eat in the department store, she would naturally not forget.
"Coke stewed duck?" Xiao Yi scratched his face in puzzlement. Coke knew that he saw it at noon. It was soda, but what should I do with Coke stewed duck?
Chapter 222
Is there such a dish?
Are you sure you can eat?
Seeing his brother look over, Xiao Tong also shook his head hurriedly: "I can't do it either."
"You don't need to know it, I can do it." What's the problem.
As soon as Ye Yuxuan's words fell, Xiao Yi couldn't help but twitched the corners of her mouth. Seeing her brother nodded with trust, his cheeks twitched.
Can you wake up as soon as you wake up!
This sentence was said by Xiao Yi to Xiao Tong with his eyes. He wanted Xiao Tong to persuade Ye Yuxuan not to be impulsive.
Could it be that Xiaotong had forgotten that after Sister Ye moved here, the next time she cooks, can she cook noodles into a batter?
It's still the kind of burnt black batter with raw batter, I can't eat it even if I want to eat it.
Later, Xiao Yi learned that Ye Yuxuan put half a catty of noodles into the pot, but there was not enough water. She kept adding water, adding water, and then...
Now Sister Ye suddenly said that coke stewed duck, and they would eat it. Diarrhea doesn't matter. Sister Ye's body, if she has diarrhea, she should go to the hospital to get a drip, right?
Ye Yuxuan didn't see the expression on Xiao Yi's face, and remembered her last result, she couldn't help being a little embarrassed, and said in embarrassment, "Why, what kind of expression is this? I said I would, but I didn't say I would do it."
Xiao Tong quickly understood Ye Yuxuan's meaning, and clapped his hands: "Sister means, do you want to let your brother do it?"
"Nonsense!" Ye Yuxuan rolled her eyes. In terms of cooking, she is a bit self-aware about what she said. OK.
Xiao Yi also knew that he had misunderstood, so he smiled bitterly, and then listened to Ye Yuxuan's instructions and took the duck meat and chopped it into pieces.
"Put the chopped duck meat into salt water for half an hour, so that it is easy to remove the fishy and flavor."
"Slice the ginger and green onions. The duck is soaked in water two or three times. After washing it, drain it and set aside."
Ye Yuxuan stood at the door of the kitchen and narrated all the food she had read.
"After heating, give the oil, think about the oil, add duck meat and stir until the water is dry, then add green onion and ginger slices and fry until fragrant." At this point, Ye Yuxuan asked, "Is there such spices as stewed and star anise at home?"
Seeing Xiao Yi nodded. , She also remembered that last week she said she wanted to eat braised pork knuckles, so Xiao Yi specially bought spices and came back to make them.
"Then add... the spices in, then introduce the Coke in, stir evenly, over high heat ..."
"Open it? Cover it and cook for 20 minutes. It should be almost done. I will add it later. Pepper and a little MSG will be completely better."
Don't look at Xiao Yi's quick movements, and listening to Ye Yuxuan's steps, he still has no bottom in his heart, until the scent floats, he has no bottom in his heart.
The cap of the Coke bottle was opened by Xiao Tong. He had seen how the salesperson opened the Coke in the department store, so he found a metal sheet and opened five bottles.
Originally, he thought it would be almost the same with two bottles, but he didn't know that Ye Yuxuan asked him to open five bottles. Although Xiao Tong thought it was too much, he obediently did so.
Speaking of it, the person who is really depressed is Ye Yuxuan. She sees that the steps for cooking are simple and seem not difficult, but when it is her turn to do it herself, she will not listen to all kinds of instructions. Either forgot or put too much of the material, and couldn't control the heat, and the steps were messy, so in the end...
Thinking about the results each time he didn't compromise, Ye Yuxuan couldn't help feeling a little depressed.
"What's the matter, Sister Ye, isn't it?" After Xiao Yi added the pepper, he just turned around and saw the expression on Ye Yuxuan's face. He couldn't help but think of something and asked hurriedly.
"No." Ye Yuxuan waved her hand and left the kitchen door, leaving only one sentence: "These are the steps, you can just put the seasoning on it and put it out."
In the direction that Xiaoyi and Xiaotong could not see, Ye Yuxuan curled her lips, she said. Can you say that you were hit by yourself!
A duck weighs more than three catties, and the coke duck is made to fill a large bowl, which is sharp.
Three people eat a duck, naturally there are a lot of them, so Xiaoyi only fries a shredded radish, and the soup is winter melon and sea rice soup.
The cola duck tastes attractive, the color is beautiful, and Ye Yuxuan is depressed again. Although she dictates it, Xiao Yi can do it so well for the first time making cola duck, which once again proves her lack of talent.
After seeing Ye Yuxuan take a bite of duck meat, Xiao Tong's expression on her face was a little wrong, and she couldn't help but worry: "Sister, what's the matter?"
"Isn't it delicious?" Xiao Yi asked hurriedly.
"Don't eat it if it doesn't taste good. I'll take this duck and wash it and make it again."
Then, Xiao Yi was about to take away the duck.
"Hey, wait, I didn't say it's not delicious." Ye Yuxuan regained her senses, and hurriedly stopped: "It's delicious."
I knew it was right after smelling the taste, not to mention that she had tasted it. Nowhere would it be bad.
"It's delicious?" Xiao Yi didn't hide the slightest suspicion on his face. What he actually wants to say is, is it really edible?
On the contrary, Xiao Tong had already moved his chopsticks, clamped a piece, and put it in his mouth to bite.
Immediately, Xiao Tong's eyes lit up: "It's delicious."
"Sister, you are amazing." My sister can't cook, but she can eat it. This is just a delicious recipe.
Seeing this, Xiao Yi sat down half-skeptically and half-hesitatingly, thinking that Xiao Tong shouldn't be talking nonsense on this issue.
Ye Yuxuan was not a little embarrassed, and calmly accepted Xiao Tong's admiration, and said, "Of course I am amazing." When
Xiao Yi also put a piece of coke duck into his mouth to eat, the taste immediately made him understand.
Well, it's delicious. The duck has a taste he has never eaten before. It is sweet and not very tired. It makes people eat several pieces in a row and don't want to stop.
Tasty is delicious, but it takes five bottles of Coke to make one, and it costs three and seven cents, plus the price of a duck, which also costs a lot.
You can't eat like this, or you will eat Sister Ye poorly sooner or later.
After dinner, Ye Yuxuan was a little strange seeing Xiao Yi scrubbing the table clean, "I want to read a book here?"
No wonder she asked, because she raised her mouth during the meal just now and let Xiao Yi take her child for two days. Tong went to school to sign up.
"No, take advantage of my free time and make some dumplings and wontons, so that if I want to eat for breakfast in the next few days, it doesn't take too much time."
Ye Yuxuan heard it, and it became clear: "Then you pack a little more, in a few days, Xiao Tong You have to go to school. It's also convenient to bring meals at lunch." The school has to be half an hour's journey away, and it's more than an hour off at noon. If Xiaotong comes back for dinner, it will take an hour back and forth on the road. Where can I still have time to rest? , Of course it is appropriate to bring food.
There is ready-made meat at home, so it's okay to get caught. Ye Yuxuan can't help me with mutton dumplings, beef dumplings, and pork wontons, and she feels it's not good to sit and watch, so she can only go back to her room to read novels.

8 247The Badboy Prince Just Can't Resist
"Why are you so nervous?" "I'm not.""Your pupils dilate every time you look at me. What are you so worried about, sweetheart?" He asks me, his warm breath fanning my ear. I rolled my eyes, and he took that as a response. "Why are you so afraid of me, Annalise?""I'm not," I repeated in a firm tone, trying to stop my body's temptation of leaning into his touch. "Then why can't you think properly while so close to me?" Damien's lips were now grazing my ear. His strong arms expertly pull me in, arms crossed around my waist ready to spin me back out. I despised the way he made me feel when we would dance, as if I liked being under his lead- it infuriated me. "I can think just fine." I spin myself back out, trying to take control. He chuckled,"This is why I find you so intriguing. You want to resist me, and I haven't found somebody like that before. It's quite frustrating, having someone who doesn't bend to my will."The nerve of this man!I scowled,"I'm not just going to follow your every command. Being a Prince doesn't mean you gain-""I could give you anything. A title or land, and any other girl-""I'm not just 'another girl' who will bend to your standards. I don't have time to pamper your ego as if you own the school.""In fact, I do. Thank you for reminding me sweetheart, sometimes I forget." Arrogance laced his tone, sending my fury into overdrive."I am nobody's sweetheart, especially not yours."His laugh sent vibrations through my body,"You have never failed to amuse me. I think we should get to know each other better." I felt his lips against my ear curl into a sly smirk.~*~*~*~*~*~*~*Cover by @afranticdreamer#4 romance #1 royal 9-29-2020#1 kingdom 3-30-2020#3 king 4-3-2020#1 princess 4-13-2020#1 new 5-14-2020-All rights reserved -Kick back and enjoy a book with a little bit of mystery, magic, humor, and don't forget romance
