Age: My Small World

Chapter 189 The words are really beautiful
The process of transcribing can easily make people forget the passage of time.

Before I knew it, it was already noon.

"Teacher, your handwriting is so beautiful."

Jiang Xueying hadn't known when she started to carefully look at Wei Ran's copying; the handwriting was truly beautiful.

As for her own handwriting, it was more casual and free-spirited, unlike the handwriting of ordinary girls.

Wei Ran turned his head and smiled slightly: "Your handwriting is not bad either."

Yang Jun did not participate in it. Instead, he said something to the two of them and went out first. He was going to prepare the ingredients for lunch.

Instead of heading towards the small world immediately, he walked towards the supply and marketing cooperative.

There are fewer people outside, and everyone is staying at home to warm themselves by the fire, except for the factory workers who are still working.

When he arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, Yang Jun found that the supply here was much less and the supply was limited.

He casually bought some writing paper and a number of ordinary cloth bags, and then bought some candy.

It is possible to buy as much of this stuff as you want and keep it, and Yang Jun will buy some whenever there is a legitimate opportunity.

Then I started walking back.

When he arrived at Zhongqiao Lane, he had a few more things in his hands.

Sugar, radish, vermicelli, a fish, a little oil, some rice and tofu, that's about it.

When he entered the room, the two women's eyes turned to him.

Seeing him carrying a handful of things, Wei Ran quickly stood up to help take them, saying angrily, "Didn't you say you were going to buy paper? Why did you bring so many things?"

She still had food in her room, so she didn't have to worry about not being able to prepare a meal, but Yang Jun insisted on bringing some ingredients with him every time, which made her helpless.

Moreover, Wei Ran was thinking of taking the two of them out to dinner later.

"It's almost lunchtime, I think I should start cooking."

"That's not something you need to worry about. You're just a little kid, acting like an adult, right?"

Wei Ran pulled his ear unhappily, obviously really angry today.

Her eyebrows suddenly raised: "Don't touch these things for now, you can take them home later. Now let's go out to eat."

Yang Jun quickly refused: "No, that won't work. I see that many shops are closed. If I go out, I will definitely not be able to find them for a long time. Don't waste time."

"The state-owned restaurant is definitely open. Let's go straight there."

"Teacher Wei, let's forget it. The state-owned restaurant is too far away." Jiang Xueying chimed in and glanced at Yang Jun.

It turned out that he was winking.

"Teacher, I'd like to try your cooking skills. Can I help you?"

The two-to-one ratio forced Wei Ran to give up his plan to go out.

She rolled her eyes at Yang Jun and said, "Come and light the fire."

"okay."

As soon as Yang Jun followed her to the kitchen, Wei Ran said, "Don't bring anything with you anymore. I know you got some royalties, but you should also buy food for home. This kind of refined grain is delicious, but if you exchange it for cornmeal, you can get more food. Don't learn the bad habit of being lazy."

She spoke with a serious tone, and it seemed that she didn't want to say these words in front of Jiang Xueying for fear of hurting his face.

Yang Jun naturally understood these principles. He smiled and said, "Teacher, don't worry. I can bring food here. How could my family not have thought of it? They have already prepared it."

"I came here to ask you for tutoring, but I can't eat every meal for free. At least I have to bring food with me. Everything is difficult now. I can't take advantage of you."

"The teacher is willing to let you take it. Besides, what's wrong with eating two meals? Can it bankrupt my family?"

"Hehe, that's not necessarily true. I'm still growing, and my appetite is getting more and more amazing." Yang Jun avoided the topic.

"Oh, you little rascal." Wei Ran shook his head and smiled. When the two of them just started cooking, Jiang Xueying also came over.

When the cloth of the small compartment was lifted, an oval face appeared.

"Can I help?"

People nowadays are not lazy and have to help with work.

Wei Ran was not polite and handed her two radishes, saying, "Then peel the radishes. Don't throw away the skins. Put them in a pot and add water to boil. You can make some radish tea to drink. It can help with digestion."

We all share the same habit of frugality.

Jiang Xueying didn't think anything was wrong and took the radish.

While Yang Jun was lighting the fire, he added, "It is said that eating radish in winter has the effect of beautifying the skin. You can eat more later."

Wei Ran and Jiang Xueying's eyes lit up.

"Is this true?" Wei Ran bumped his arm, expressing his doubt.

Jiang Xueying looked at the two people's skillful movements and her brows couldn't help but frown slightly, and then returned to normal in an instant.

"It's fake. I just randomly read it in a medical book. I guess it's nonsense."

"Medical books? Maybe that would work."

"By the way, Jiang, you can add some sugar when you cook the radish peels. It will taste better."

A moderate amount of sugar can enhance the taste of the soup.

Although it is called radish tea, it is actually no different from radish soup.

"Okay, I'll try it then."

Jiang Xueying retreated with the radish in her hand.

The two people in the kitchen continued to cook.

This meal is simpler, so I'm going to make a big hodgepodge.

Wei Ran lifted the several-kilogram fish and couldn't help but wonder, "Where on earth did you get these weird things? You can actually catch fish in winter."

"Long hair, knowledge... ahem, what I mean is that the teacher is really amazing." Yang Jun was halfway through his words when he was glared at by Wei Ran and held back his words.

"Fishing in winter is quite normal. In ancient times, people would lie on the ice to catch carp. Now, just look at the Northeast. They fish there like crazy, often going out from village to village, and every time they come back with a big net."

"You even know about what's going on in the Northeast. It seems you read the newspaper often. That's right. People should be more informed."

Wei Ran nodded with satisfaction.

"Of course I know you can fish in winter, but there aren't many fish ponds here. You have to go dozens of kilometers north."

"Then I don't know. I got this fish from someone else." Yang Jun directly pushed the blame onto the third party.

Wei Ran didn't ask any more questions, but instead asked, "I see you brought some sugar, and we have vinegar at home. How about giving you some sweet and sour fish to try?"

"Teacher, can you make sweet and sour fish?"

"Why not? Just wait and see."

Wei Ran rolled up his sleeves, ready to get to work.

As her body became hot after working, she felt that her cotton coat was too thick, so she took it off and now wore an apron.

Although she wanted to make sweet and sour fish, she would not use up all the fish. She only needed a part of the fish meat.

The remaining heads and tails are all put into the big stew, which just increases the flavor of the stew.

Ordinary river fish may have a strong earthy smell, but the ones raised by Yang Jun with spiritual water do not.
