Chapter 203 A genius idea(1/2)
"Yeah, let me try this again."
“This steamed fish is delicious!”
"Wow, this Ruyi chicken roll is even more delicious!"
.....
Cheng Chen and Li Mubai turned into foodies and frantically swept away the delicacies on the table.
But as the couple ate, they always felt something was wrong.
At this moment, Xu Weiguo silently took out a jar of rice wine.
"Li Chu, sister-in-law, are you so happy today? Let's have some drinks?"
Xu Weiguo introduced: "This is the rice wine I brewed myself. I think it tastes good and is best used with dishes!"
Suddenly, Cheng Chen, Li Mubai and his wife's eyes lit up.
"Haha, I feel like the food on today's table is missing something. It's not that the food is not delicious enough, but because there is no wine!" Li Mubai said with a smile: "Weiguo, you really have it. Good food and wine, I have it all in the world."
Ah!"
Cheng Chen said blankly: "Weiguo, you can also make wine!"
Xu Weiguo smiled and said: "This wine is brewed from glutinous rice. The process is relatively simple. You can usually make it at home. It can also be made into fermented glutinous rice. Occasionally, you can also make some fermented glutinous rice dumplings and other things. Anyway, it is useful."
"By the way, eating fermented glutinous rice is good for women's health. I originally made it for my wife, so you can try it."
Hearing Xu Weiguo's words, Cheng Chen glanced at Li Mubai specifically, as if to say, look at how Weiguo treats his wife, and then look at yourself? What a difference!
Li Mubai smiled awkwardly, "Hey, come on, let's drink some rice wine. It's such a cold day, so drink some rice wine to warm your body!"
Cheng Chen continued: "Before, Du Yue and my old Li praised you for being all-powerful. I was still a little skeptical, but now I really believe it."
"Pour me some to try too."
"Lao Li, the wine is delicious, so don't be greedy!"
Li Mubai quickly nodded in agreement, but when he drank the first glass of rice wine, he immediately regretted it.
"Is this rice wine? This is simply fine wine!"
"Weiguo, come on, fill it up for me!"
Li Mubai drank the first cup neatly, and then held out the cup for Xu Weiguo.
Cheng Chen glanced at Li Mubai in confusion. As a man, he knew that Li Mubai was an expert in drinking. He usually didn't drink ordinary wine, but he didn't expect that he was so addicted to rice wine now.
You must know that rice wine is actually glutinous rice wine and is not a real wine at all.
With doubtful thoughts, Cheng Chen also took a sip, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "Good wine!"
"Weiguo, you must have put a lot of thought into this wine. Rice wine brewed casually does not taste like this."
Xu Weiguo smiled and nodded: "I did put some thought into it, but not much. The main thing is to make the rice wine taste like normal wine."
Li Mubai looked at Xu Weiguo with a smile, "Weiguo, this wine..."
Seeing Li Mubai's appearance, Xu Weiguo immediately understood what the other party wanted to do, and quickly said: "I can't make much of this wine."
"But if my sister-in-law doesn't object, I will send you a few jars every month for you to taste. If there are too many, you will really have none."
Li Mubai immediately turned his head and looked at Cheng Chen hopefully.
Cheng Chen said angrily: "What do you think I'm doing? Wei Guo and Xiao Du are not outsiders. If you like, just accept them."
Li Mubai nodded immediately, "Weiguo, I will accept this drink shamelessly!"
"Two jars, you can bring me two jars every month, no more, no less, okay?"
Xu Weiguo nodded, "Sure, no problem."
"Haha, eat, eat, eat vegetables...drink!"
The two families enjoyed a dinner happily.
After meal.
Xu Weiguo was pulled into the study by Li Mubai to talk.
Du Yue hugged Xu Xiaoya and chatted with Cheng Chen in the living room.
"Xiao Du, is this your first time meeting our old Li?" Cheng Chen asked.
"Yes." Du Yue nodded, "Not only Brother Li, but also Sister Chen, this is my first time meeting you."
Cheng Chen smiled and nodded, "You kid is really honest."
"Let me ask you, what do you think of your brother Li?"
Du Yue immediately started thinking seriously.
"You don't have to think about it for so long. Just tell me how you really feel today. We are just chatting and nothing else will be involved."
Hearing what Cheng Chen said, Du Yue said with relief: "Brother Li looks very majestic and kind, but..."
"You think my Lao Li is a little afraid of me?"
Cheng Chen asked with a smile.
Du Yue nodded, "Yes, Brother Li is a big leader after all, why are you still afraid of your wife?"
Hearing Du Yue's question, Cheng Chen smiled even more happily, "Silly girl, my old Li is not afraid of me, but respects me. In fact, he is essentially the same as you and Wei Guo!"
"Men will always love their women in different but similar ways."
"My Lao Li loves me by leaving the decision-making power to me, but your Weiguo uses a more advanced method, which is to pamper you like a princess. This method is not just any one."
Men can do it."
"I will consider all aspects for you, stand unswervingly in front of you, protect you from wind and rain, and respect your choice... tsk tsk... I am already envious!"
Hearing what Cheng Chen said, Du Yue's face suddenly turned red and she felt a little embarrassed.
"Look at how shy you are!" Cheng Chen smiled, and then said seriously: "Xiao Du, but I have one more thing to say hello to you first."
"Your Weiguo and my Lao Li have special jobs. The reason why you don't feel it now is mainly because Weiguo has just worked in the Red Wall Compound. After a little longer, you will understand that their job
How difficult it is!"
"I'm afraid that by then, traveling around the country will be commonplace, and it may even be possible to go abroad!"
"When Lao Li entered the special donation office, he got so busy that Xiao Ming and I couldn't see him for a year, not even during the Chinese New Year. We only had letters that were several months late."
"Of course, I was busy with work at the time and couldn't take care of Xiao Ming. As time went by, Xiao Ming's education fell behind. Now he hangs around with all the street gangsters who have dropped out of school every day. The two of us can't do anything with him.
No."
"After all, Lao Li and I owe him."
As he said this, Cheng Chen started sobbing, "Why are we talking and talking about this?"
"I'm happy today, let's not talk about this anymore."
Du Yue looked at Cheng Chen's sad look. On the one hand, she felt sympathy, but on the other hand, she secretly made up her mind to stay with Xiaoya!
"Sister Chen, I believe Xiao Ming will understand you."
"I hope so!" Cheng Chen nodded, "You and Wei Guo must also be careful and never neglect the company of your children because of work."
Cheng Chen looked at Xu Xiaoya in Du Yue's arms and added: "But I think you won't ignore it."
"Hey, Lao Li and Wei Guo have been in the study for a long time, right?"
"I went in after dinner and haven't come out yet." Du Yue nodded.
"What are we talking about? It's taking so long?" A trace of doubt flashed in Cheng Chen's eyes, "Let's go and listen too."
As he said this, Cheng Chen pulled Du Yue up and walked into the study.
As soon as he entered the study, he looked at Li Mubai and Zhao Yi who were drinking tea and chatting. Seeing the two of them looking so relaxed, Cheng Chen asked: "Old Li, Wei Guo, are you two plotting more?"
What?"
"Weiguo, I have to remind you, if Lao Li asks you for more wine, you can't give it to him. He has a terrible drinking capacity. Two jars are enough for him. If I give him more, I'm afraid he will get drunk every day!
”
Xu Weiguo smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, Brother Li didn't ask me for a drink, but he was talking to me about other things!"
"Other things? What things? Can you tell us about it?" Cheng Chen said: "Let us also listen to it, and maybe we can analyze it for you!"
Li Mubai hurriedly said: "Daughter-in-law, Wei Guo and I are discussing. The New Year is coming soon, but there is a shortage of food, fruits, vegetables, and meat, especially vegetables. There are so many vegetables in this winter!"
"But Weiguo gave me a very good idea. If this idea can be implemented, I won't have to worry about fresh vegetables even in the middle of winter!"
Cheng Chen didn't believe it at all, and said bluntly: "One of you works in special mining and the other works in engineering. You are completely amateurs. It's strange that you can get along well with each other!"
"I have the right to say this! Don't forget, I am from the Research Institute!"
Li Mubai smiled and said: "Okay, you are from a scientific research institute. Could you please tell me how to eat fresh vegetables in winter?"
"Um..." Cheng Chen was stunned when he heard this question, and then shook his head, "I'm sorry, this problem has not been invented yet by the scientific research institute."
