The Pretty Man I Picked Up [Time Travel]

Chapter 5 The taste of hometown

Xu Haorui consciously acted as a human crutch for Lin Qingjiu this time and brought him into the kitchen.

Next is the time for him to show off his skills. Chestnuts were a delicacy sought after by many people before the end of the world, and there were many things to cook.

For example, stir-fried chestnuts, chestnut cakes, chestnut cakes... and cooking dishes, no matter how you make them delicious.

He wanted to make delicious snacks with chestnuts, but it had been so long that he was not sure whether he could make them.

What impressed him deeply was the candied roasted chestnuts and chestnut cakes sold on the roadside where he went to school. He wanted to eat them so much!

Xu Haorui immediately took action and poured out about four kilograms of chestnuts from the basket, planning to use two kilograms of each to practice his skills.

He washed the poured chestnuts, drained the water, and then cut the openings one by one.

Soak half of the chestnuts in freshly boiled water, then put the remaining half of the chestnuts directly into the pot, add water, sugar, lard and cover to simmer.

Lin Qingjiu was sitting at the table with her hands on her chin, shaking her legs, and curiously watching Xu Haorui's tinkering.

He has never seen a man who likes to mess around in the kitchen so much. Xu Haorui is really a strange person.

He couldn't help but ask: "What are you going to do?...Arui."

After asking, I remembered the conversation just now and added the title in time.

"Well, it's hard to say. You'll know once you do it."

Xu Haorui wasn't sure whether it would be successful, so let's leave it alone. After all, the chestnuts themselves are delicious when cooked.

After putting the dry firewood into the stove, he took the time to pour the soaked chestnuts into the basket and handed it to Lin Qingjiu at the table, gesturing for him to help peel the shells. He wanted to take advantage of this moment to knead the skin of the shortbread.

Lin Qingjiu misunderstood what he meant.

? Is this ready to eat?

Lin Qingjiu hesitantly took the basket, put it in front of him, peeled one off and put it in his mouth.

He frowned slightly and commented: "It's crispy and slightly sweet, but not as sweet and delicious as the glutinous soup I made last night."

? Hearing this, Xu Haorui, who was kneading the dough, turned around in confusion.

Good guy, Lin Qingjiu just put it in his mouth and ate it. The raw one was certainly not as delicious as the cooked one!

"Hey, don't eat it raw. I want you to help peel the shell. I need the chestnut kernel inside."

"Ah, oh, bah bah..." Lin Qingjiu immediately spat out the chestnuts in his mouth before he could swallow them.

"Hahaha... Don't worry, you can eat it raw, but it doesn't taste that good."

Xu Haorui laughed. He didn't expect to see the embarrassment on Lin Qingjiu's beautiful face.

When Lin Qingjiu heard his laughter with a sullen face, she silently increased the strength of her hands and peeled the intact chestnut kernels into several pieces.

"Yes, I'm sorry, haha, it's all my fault. I blame me for not making it clear."

Xu Haorui didn't dare to continue laughing when he saw this, so he had to hold back and turn around with his shoulders shaking slightly.
