Xinman's Collection

Chapter 15

In summer, the days are long and the sky is dimly lit. Xin Manding's cell phone alarm clock rang. Before he opened his eyes, he stretched out a hand from under the quilt and pressed the bell. Then, as if he was about to fight himself, he turned over, Change from lying on your side to lying on your stomach, with your legs curled up and placed under your abdomen, like a little turtle with a shell on its back.

It was really difficult to get up in the morning, so he changed into a particularly uncomfortable position and called himself several times in his mind. After a while, his legs became numb and he woke up.

Xin Manmi stared half-opened, lifted the thin quilt, and was about to get out of bed with a sway, but the bed was soft and his knees were weak, so he couldn't help but fall backwards. It's just the bed, it doesn't get in the way of anything.

But in the next moment, he fell on the muscular chest, resting his head on it, smelling the clean smell that belonged to Tantai Buddha in his nostrils.

Xin Man's expression was dazed, and then he woke up and wanted to get up and leave, but before he could move, a strong arm wrapped around Xin Man's waist the next moment, bringing him to his side again.

At this moment, Xin Man's cheeks were pressed tightly against Tantai Buddha's chest, and his face turned red immediately. He cautiously raised his eyes and looked up. Tantai Buddha was also looking at him with a pair of cold eyes. .

This fall probably woke him up.

Xin Man looked apologetic, "Teacher Tantai, I didn't do it on purpose."

"En." Tantai Buddha replied in a low voice, his voice was a little hoarse when he got up early, "Be careful."

"Okay." Xin Man raised his eyes and tried to move his body, and sure enough, Tantai Buddha let him go.

The day's plan lies in the morning, and time must not be wasted. Waking up early can hone one's will, and reciting in the morning will make the memory clear.

Xin Man sneezed and stood on the balcony of the living room reciting words.

After staying at home for a few days, she was about to leave. Before leaving, Mama Xin packed a big bag of things for Xin Man, including small pickles.

When going back, Tantai Buddha had something to go to school, so he put the big and small bags in the trunk first, and Xin Man asked Tantai Buddha to put himself at the gate of the community.

Watching the car go away, Xin Man walked in slowly with his backpack on his back, and he heard a voice calling, "We see you!"

Then Xin Man turned his head to look, and the first thing that came into his eyes was a handsome husky, with no one pulling the rein, dragging on the ground, running towards Xin Man.

Xin Man took a step back at a loss, and then heard someone shouting, "Chess pieces come back!"

The happy and running husky immediately drifted on the ground, and turned back to find its owner.

Xin Man breathed a sigh of relief, he thought that the husky had become a spirit and was able to speak.

Just as I was about to turn around and leave, I heard someone shouting from behind me, "Hey, what are you doing, Xin Man!"

"Huh? Call me." Xin Man thought, he didn't know anyone here, so he didn't know who called him.

Looking back, a handsome young man wearing a sleeveless vest and braids behind his head was walking towards him. Seeing the man smiling and waving at him while walking, Xin Man blurted out, "Cheng Zhao?"

Hearing Xin Man's words, the smile on the young man's face widened, "Haha, how do you know it's me?"

Xin Manxin said, you have this style when you chatted with me, and now it looks very familiar, no wonder he can recognize it.

Walking in front of Xin Man, the young man waved back again, "Old Qi, come quickly!"

Only then did Xin Man see the husky running in front of a more handsome young man. When he saw that man, Xin Man suddenly remembered that he had seen this man before, no wonder the husky looked familiar.

Cheng Zhao looked at Xin Man and said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to live here. When Lao Qi told me, I wanted to meet you. Haha, is this a netizen meeting?"

Qi Shuchen also came over at this time, watching Xin Man carrying a bag, "You just came back from outside?"

Xin Man nodded, "Well, I'm going home, I just came back today." Seeing Cheng Zhao was a little puzzled, he explained, "I borrowed here, didn't I tell you before."

"Ah, yes, I forgot." Cheng Zhao slapped his head, and grinningly approached Xin Man, "Hey, the two of us chatted online for so long, and today we finally met, and we went to Lao Qi's house to play with me. Let's play a game, his family is here too, so close, we are not bad people, you don't have to be afraid."

The more he chatted with Xin Man, the more he felt that this kid was right for him. He heard that Qi Shuchen had met him in his own neighborhood, so he came here.

Xin Man rubbed his nose and said, "I have to go home and read."

Cheng Zhao was not very surprised. He patted Xin Man on the shoulder and said, "I know you guys will have a final exam soon, but you have to study carefully, just play for a while."

Xin Man tilted his head in doubt, "Final exam? I don't have a final exam."

Cheng Zhao: "Huh? Are you not a freshman?"

It's no wonder that he has such thoughts, it's because Xin Man looks really tender, just like the freshmen in their school, but those children are not as cute as Xin Man.

Xin Man was confused: Who said I was a freshman?

Qi Shuchen also looked puzzled: "Sophomore?"

Seeing that Xin Man still refused to admit it, Cheng Zhao said in shock, "You can't be a junior, so you'll be the same as us. I was thinking that if it wasn't for the high school students who couldn't come out now, I would treat you as a high school student." , the elementary school brother seems to be in vain..."

Xin Man: "..."

Just tell me how small I am, and I... can't change it.

"I graduated from university. If you want to talk about my junior, I should also..." Xin Manmu looked at the two of them with a sullen face.

Qi Shuchen was better, slightly surprised, Cheng Zhao opened his mouth wide and shouted in surprise, "You skipped a grade?!"

Xin Man: You just don't want to believe that I'm older than you...

Alas.

Cheng Zhao sighed again and again, and touched his dog's face, the skin was thick and fleshy, and the person in front of him was bigger than himself, so why did he look so tender and cute.

Xin Man: No, he doesn't want to grow up like this!

But Cheng Zhao accepted the blow, and made persistent efforts to invite Xin Man to come and play together.

Xin Man held the shoulder strap and said, "I really want to go back to reading, and I haven't played games much."

This is the truth. Xin Man was not interested in online games since he was a child, nor is he addicted to it like other boys. He is more interested in handicrafts, or learning to cook with Xin Ma, otherwise he would not be so good at crafting now .

"OK then."

Although Cheng Zhao was a little disappointed, he also knew that he couldn't force others. He scratched his head and wondered, "You don't read because you want to take the postgraduate entrance examination, do you?"

Xin Man nodded, "Yes."

Qi Shuchen asked, "Where do you want to take the exam?"

"It's N University." Xin Man replied, N University is also in T City, it is considered a well-known school in the country, and it has been tested once before, so it is considered experienced.

Cheng Zhao stared at Qi Shuchen with wide eyes, then looked at Xin Man with a smile, "What profession?"

Xin Man: "...Could it be your school?"

Cheng Zhao nodded again and again, "Isn't it? Fate, talk about your major, maybe I can help you."

"Environmental Design."

"Ah... Design College." Cheng Zhao scratched his hair. This college has nothing to do with their majors, let alone help.

On the other hand, Qi Shuchen said, "I know someone over there, he should have some review materials in his hand."

Xin Man had no hope at first, but this time he was pleasantly surprised, "Will it be too troublesome?"

"No, it's just a matter of talking." Qi Shuchen looked at Xin Man and said, "Fortunately, you live here, and I'll let you know when I get the information."

"Thank you." Xin Man naturally agreed, left the communication method and left.

The review materials Qi Shuchen mentioned were of course for postgraduate entrance examinations, and he knew that person as a graduate student of the college, so it was very convenient to obtain them from him.

In the evening, after Tantai Buddha came back, Xin Man started cooking. What he made was boiled pork slices, which was hot and spicy, and served with rice as a special meal.

The tenderloin is thinly sliced, the onion, ginger and garlic are ready, and there are essential seasonings such as Pixian bean paste and dried red pepper.

Xin Man rubbed his nose and was preparing the pepper powder. He smelled it and felt like he wanted to sneeze. Tantai Buddha came into the kitchen at this time and asked if he needed help.

Xin Man knew that Tantai Buddha had never cooked before, so he took the cabbage and handed it over, "Teacher Tantai washed the cabbage and tore it into pieces with his hands."

"En." Tantai Buddha took it with a nod, and looked seriously at the round cabbage in his hand. Xin Man placed a basin by his hand, tore it open and put it inside.

The sound of water sounded, and Xin Man took a look. The Tantai Buddha was washed very carefully, peeled off piece by piece, and then rinsed with water. His manual skills were good, Xin Man nodded, and went to do other things.

The sliced ​​tenderloin should be starched with light soy sauce, dry starch, and pepper powder. The scallions should be cut into sections, and the peppers should be shredded. After the oil is heated in the oil pan, add the peppercorns and peppers and stir-fry over a low heat. After the aroma comes out, it should be served. Set aside, then, don’t pour the oil in the pot, just add the Pixian bean paste and stir-fry over low heat.

In this way, the residual aroma combined with the bean paste will be even better. After frying, add garlic to taste, add a small amount of white sugar to enhance freshness, add an appropriate amount of water to boil, and finally add a small amount of salt.

Since the bean paste already has a salty taste, less salt should be added.

"Mr. Tantai, have you washed the cabbage?" Xin Man was busy for a while, and finally remembered that his cabbage was still in Tantai Buddha's hands.

"It's finished." Tantai Buddha handed the basin forward.

"Thank you, Teacher Tantai." Xin Man took it with a smile, and put all the cabbage into the boiling soup.

Wait until the cabbage is blanched and then take it out. At this time, put it into the bottom of the container, and the soup in the pot will boil again before adding the meat slices.

"It smells so good." Xin Man fanned it with his hand, feeling his mouth was slurping. Seeing that Tantai Buddha hadn't left, he took out a piece of meat from the pot and blew it, "Teacher Tantai, do you want to taste it first?"

The meat slices were scalded, and the bottom was dripping red hot soup. When the soup was about to fall, Tantai Buddha ate it in one gulp.

In an instant, the spicy and delicious taste exploded in the mouth, and the meat was tender and of high quality.

At this time, it was almost the same time. Xinman poured the meat slices and soup into the container, and put shallots, fried peppers, etc. on top. When the hot oil was poured, the aroma was strong and the taste was delicious.

"Dinner."

Xin Man went out with a large pot full of boiled pork slices, and Tantai Buddha had already filled the rice and waited for him at the table.

The author has something to say:

The eldest prince is gentle and refined, his eyes are always smiling, like a fairy.

The second prince's appearance is beautiful, he is naturally noble, he is evil and reckless, and his aura is domineering.

The third prince had cold brows and handsome eyes, his handsomeness was extraordinary, and his eyes were often filled with ice, which made people dare not approach him.

It is the last prince, because he is still young, he is not yet childish, he is beautiful but also cute.

At this moment, the eldest prince smiled and said, "I don't know how Uncle Huang is, would you like to heal Shaoji?"

Emperor Zhao glanced at the second prince, who was still alive, and stroked the beard growing on his chin, "Your uncle is kind, so he will naturally."

The fourth prince, Shao E, blinked his eyes, and asked innocently, "How much older is Uncle Huang than Emperor Father? Could it be that he is already an old man with white beard? He is getting old, no wonder he can't go down the mountain."

As soon as these words came out, the eldest prince Shao Zhu, the third prince Shaoya didn't respond, the second prince Shaoji squinted his eyes, and Zhao Huang's face showed even more anger. authority!snort!
