Chapter 201 The light starts here (2)
"Okay, have a meal first," my dad drank the tea and stood up. "Xiang Xi comes to try your aunt's skills. I don't know if she is used to it."
"I've already smelled the fragrance," Xiang Xi stood up and planned to go into the kitchen to help serve the dishes. "I'll help..."
"What can you do? Wash your hands and sit down," Dad stopped him, "Boyan is quite troublesome."
"...Why am I going to be a mess?" Cheng Boyan smiled and brought out the remaining dishes and arranged the dishes.
Just four people had a meal, Director Xu made six dishes and one soup, and the portions were quite large.
"Thank you for your hard work," Xiang Xi said, "so many dishes."
"I don't do this normally, and it's not hard to do it occasionally," said Director Xu. "You try it and see if it's up to the taste."
Xiang Xi hesitated for a moment, picked up a piece of hairtail and took a bite: "It's delicious!"
"Is it light?" Cheng Boyan asked.
"Not light," Xiang Xi looked at the hairtail. The hairtail was not fried. It was probably because Director Xu thought the fried stuff was not healthy enough, so he steamed it and padded it with garlic and chopped pepper. But unexpectedly, there was no fishy smell. "It's much better than the dishes you cook."
After saying this, Xiang Xi suddenly felt a little worried. Cheng Boyan saw that he was the baby son of the family and actually cooked for others. I wonder what Uncle Cheng and Director Xu would feel when they heard it...
"How can he cook?" Director Xu smiled, and he didn't seem to have any idea about his words. "Just make do with the things, and the taste is not mentioned at all. I put more salt in today's dishes than we usually eat, mainly because I am afraid that it will be too light and you won't be used to it... Is this fishy?"
"It's not fishy, it's delicious," Xiang Xi said quickly, "Did you teach it on TV? I remember that there was an issue where you taught steamed hairtail."
"You still see these?" Uncle Cheng was a little surprised.
"Look," Xiang Xi smiled embarrassedly, "I like to watch it quite well, and gain knowledge."
Cheng Boyan’s family doesn’t speak much when they eat or watch TV. This is probably a habit. Cheng Boyan doesn’t talk much when he eats with him, but the TV is on. Cheng Boyan doesn’t watch it, he just watches it while eating.
He didn't think anything was wrong before, but now facing Cheng Boyan's parents, he was already very nervous and didn't talk anymore. He finally talked to Uncle Cheng and felt nervous again, always afraid that he would make something unusual.
"Xiang Xi," Uncle Cheng finally broke his silence after eating for a while, "Are you planning to go to the tea shop after you have finished learning tea with Master Lu?"
"Well, that's what I plan," Xiang Xi quickly swallowed a piece of duck in his mouth. "I want to ask my master to go to a lot of tea shops. He said he would like to choose a suitable recommendation."
"That's good," Uncle Cheng nodded and said with a smile, "In our family, the three doctors are all science-oriented. They usually pay attention to being rigorous in their words and actions. It's boring to be stern. Without such cells that listen to the piano and smell the fragrance of tea, you are pretty good."
"Not right, I see Bo... Cheng Boyan is okay, not much... it's quite interesting." Xiang Xi smiled.
He is quite rigorous. He is very rigorous when he goes to work and is also rigorous when he is obsessed with cleanliness, but he is just a stern look? When Xiang Xi heard this, he almost wanted to say "hehe". That was just an appearance!
This person usually has no other scruples than cleanliness!
After dinner, Xiang Xi helped Cheng Boyan clean up the dishes on the table. He originally wanted to help wash the dishes, but Cheng Boyan pushed him out of the kitchen and gave up such a good opportunity to perform. Xiang Xi probably because Director Xu had his own special dishwashing process and others could not interfere.
It is much easier to sit in the living room after dinner, eating fruit while watching TV and chatting.
Cheng Boyan leaned comfortably on the sofa, and pulled his arm, indicating that he could lean more comfortably. Xiang Xi glared at him, but still kept sitting straight.
Uncle Cheng made tea and used the tea he brought: "I'll try this tea and keep it. Xiang Xi's arms are ready and come back to make tea for me. I have a set of tea sets given by his uncle Boyan and it's not useful."
"Okay." Xiang Xi agreed immediately.
"The boss is willing to give someone a tea set. I asked him for one, and he also delivered the goods to our hospital." Cheng Boyan smiled.
"You are really used to being old or young," Director Xu glanced at him. "The elders don't look like juniors in front of them, and the youngers don't look like elders."
"Your mother-in-law is used to it." Cheng Boyan said with a smile.
"Look at how beautiful you are," said Director Xu, "If it were Bo Yu..."
The moment when Bo Yu said these two words, Xiang Xi felt that Cheng Boyan was reaching out to hold the cup for a short pause, then he took the cup and smiled: "Yes, if he wants to be there, I won't be treated like this."
"Bo Yu is..." Director Xu looked at Xiang Xi and explained to him, "It's Bo Yan's younger brother."
"Well, I've heard of it." Xiang Xi said softly, looking at Cheng Boyan.
"I'm a little younger than you when I left," Director Xu's expression was a little dim. "Xiang Xi, if my aunt is a little harsh on you sometimes, I hope you can understand it. After all,... losing a son is only one son, and only one son is a completely different feeling than having only one son."
"I understand," Xiang Xi said, "really, auntie, I understand."
Director Xu smiled and took a peach for him: "Try this, it's quite sweet. You can eat more peaches to moisten the lungs and eliminate phlegm, and the content of protein and iron is very high."
"The iron content is almost the highest among fruits," Xiang Xi smiled and ate it, "I remember you said it in your previous show."
"...You really have seen it every time?" Uncle Cheng said in surprise.
"I'll only watch the issue I invited Director Xu to." Xiang Xi smiled embarrassedly.
"The key is that he can still remember after watching it," Cheng Boyan also took a peach and chewed it, "It's quite magical."
"Where is your fans," Uncle Cheng said to Director Xu with a smile, "I haven't seen it before."
After chatting while watching TV for more than an hour, Cheng Boyan went into the kitchen to wash his hands, then came out to look at the time: "Let's go back?"
"Oh." Xiang Xi stood up and ran into the kitchen to wash his hands.
"Then you go back first. Tomorrow is not a day off," Uncle Cheng said with a smile. "Xiang Xi, come and play when you have time. Remember not to bring things when you come again. If your master gives you tea, you can bring some for me."
