当楚天来到林玉婷家的大门口时,他的手犹豫着要不要敲那一脸欢快的铁门.
突然,铁门打开了.穿着公主般的林玉婷正对着楚天灿烂的笑容."你这个流氓,我已经在窗边盯着你一整天了.如果你没有快来,我早就去接你了.
就在这时,一个中年男人从厨房里走出来,脸上洋溢着灿烂的笑容."玉婷,你同学在吗?带他坐一会儿.我先把鱼洗干净.
林玉婷"哦"地回答了一句,然后忍不住笑了起来."爸爸,别再假装自己是厨房里的主厨了.你的厨艺真是太好了.你还不如把所有东西都扔进锅里煮沸.否则,你会浪费食材.
楚天将手中的两瓶酒递给了林玉婷.他的眼睛在房间里短暂地扫视了一圈.他看到侧墙上有一幅女人的画像.他觉得这很可能是林玉晴的妻子,就像梅姐说的.她看起来年轻,美丽,优雅.可惜,这样的美人,竟然被命运带走了.不过,看起来林玉婷和爸爸相处得非常好,这肯定会让她在天堂的心灵得到安慰.
林玉婷从楚天手中接过酒,喊道:"爸爸,我同学楚天给你端了两瓶酒.今晚我让你喝几杯.
她话音刚落,林玉晴就湿漉漉的手冲了出来,从林玉婷手中接过酒,检查了片刻."这是好酒.正是我所需要的.今晚我可以喝点酒,喝点醉.然后他看着楚天说道:"所以你就是那个楚天,那个玉婷常说的那个曾经的——百年一遇的——天才?你看起来很棒,温柔,大方,彬彬有礼.我是林玉清.就叫我清叔吧.
楚天心跳加速.他心想,他思考送什么作为礼物并最终选择葡萄酒的日子已经得到了回报.否则,以林玉晴的身份,他可能还不敢接受.哪怕是这两瓶酒,楚天也特意挑选了年份不超过十年的.否则,林玉晴还真不敢喝他们,甚至不敢从厨房出来检查.唉,这就是身为知名人物的难点,誉遍宜兴城的"铁面裁判"林玉清的难点.
林玉婷把酒抢了回来,抱怨道:"爸爸,快点做饭.快五点了,你还没干完呢.
林玉晴就像一个犯了错的孩子,在林玉婷面前显得极其温顺.他反复说:"好,好,好.我马上走.爸爸的烹饪技能是出于需要而发展起来的.玉婷,你应该多理解一下.说完,他跑回厨房继续他的"战斗".楚天忍不住苦笑.看来这两对父女都不知道怎么做饭.他想知道他们通常吃什么.
"砰,砰,砰",厨房传来了震耳欲聋的菜刀敲击砧板的声音.楚天一听,就知道林玉清大概是在砍什么东西,但没把力控制好,听起来这么刺耳.于是,他缓缓地向厨房走去,林玉婷像一条小尾巴一样跟在他身后.
虽然楚天已经做好了心理准备,但他还是被厨房里的乱七八糟的事情吓了一跳.被宰杀的鱼还在抽搐.瘦肉被切成非常大的块.几只大虾在地板上跳来跳去.水槽里的蔬菜滴着水.而林玉婷则似乎完全不在意,靠在门上说道:"我爸爸每次做完饭,都像个战场.他花了一个多小时来清理.
楚天苦笑一笑,一脸坚定地卷起袖子,道:"青叔,我学了一些厨艺.如果你信任我,就让我来接管厨房.
林玉婷和林玉晴惊讶地看着楚天.楚天真的会做饭吗?他们不知道的是,在他们眼里,楚天这一代的年轻人,99%都不想做饭,更别说会做饭了.
Lin Yuqing smiled and said, "It's okay. I'll be done soon. You and Yuting just sit outside for a while."
Lin Yuting, however, was eager to see if Chu Tian could really cook. So, she said, "Dad, let Chu Tian do it. Even if it's bad, it won't be any worse than what you do. Maybe he'll give me a pleasant surprise. I'm already tired of your cooking. Come on, come out quickly." Then she went in and pulled Lin Yuqing out. Chu Tian smiled and walked in slowly.
Lin Yuqing had no choice but to take off his apron as he walked and hand it to Chu Tian. He said to Lin Yuting, "You child, how could you have the heart to let the guest cook?"
After Lin Yuqing left, Chu Tian slowly closed the door and said with a smile, "I need a quiet environment to cook. You two go sit on the sofa for half an hour. I guarantee we can have dinner ready by then." In fact, Chu Tian didn't want them to see his amazing knife - handling skills and get scared.
Lin Yuting had originally wanted to watch, but hearing what Chu Tian said, she could only pout and leave with Lin Yuqing.
Half an hour passed quickly. Chu Tian stood in front of the dining table, rubbed his nose, and shouted, "Uncle Qing, Yuting, dinner is ready."
Chu Tian clearly heard Lin Yuting's surprised voice. "So fast? Did you make a Northeast stew?"
Lin Yuqing laughed and said, "Yuting, don't talk nonsense. It's already very nice of Chu Tian to help us cook. Look at you. Since you were born, you've only cooked two eggs."
As they talked, they came to the dining table. When they saw the dishes on the table, they were both stunned.
There was a golden - brown roasted pigeon, accompanied by lemon. A plate of sizzling ginger - and - scallion beef, a steamed grass carp that looked tender and delicious, a plate of fresh and tender white - cut chicken with ginger oil, a plate of green and inviting vegetables, a thick tomato and chicken soup, three bowls of rice topped with cured meat, and the purple - red wine was giving off a cool air, clearly having been chilled.
Lin Yuting said dreamily, "Chu Tian, did you really make all this?"
Chu Tian smiled and retorted, "Do you think you did it?"
Lin Yuting picked up a piece of beef as she spoke. "It looks great. I wonder how it tastes." As soon as the beef entered her mouth, her tone changed. "It tastes even better."
Lin Yuqing also picked up a piece of white - cut chicken, took a bite. It was fragrant, tender, and smooth. The taste was simply excellent. He looked at Chu Tian with approving eyes.
Lin Yuting laughed. "Chu Tian, if it weren't for the fact that you were the only one in the kitchen, I'd suspect a Conch girl came out to cook this meal."
Chu Tian slowly raised his glass and said, "Yuting, Uncle Qing, I want to thank you both for your care and help. Let me toast to you all. Thank you." Then he drank it all in one gulp.
Lin Yuqing also smiled and finished the wine in his glass. He felt that the wine tasted more delicious than usual.
Lin Yuting took a sip and sighed, "I think wine tastes better with Sprite."
Chu Tian smiled and said, "That's a wrong way to drink it. On one hand, it ruins the original pure fruit aroma of the wine. On the other hand, with the addition of a large amount of sugar and gas, it affects the nutrition and efficacy of the wine. Simply put, in foreign countries, those high - end wines are made with countless efforts, manpower, material resources, and time to remove the impurities in the wine. But you, without hesitation, pour the carefully - brewed pure wine into Sprite. If the winemakers knew, they'd probably cry their hearts out."
Lin Yuting couldn't help but laugh. She took another sip of wine and said, "Young General, how do you know everything?"
Lin Yuqing's heart skipped a beat. Looking at this young man who was well - mannered, composed, and exuded an elegant temperament, he couldn't help but sigh. This was truly an outstanding person. He had excellent cooking skills and profound knowledge, yet he was not showy. In this mundane world, it was hard to find such a calm and un - arrogant young man.
From Lin Yuting's eyes and behavior, Lin Yuqing could tell how infatuated she was with Chu Tian. It was just due to family education and the college entrance examination that this emotion hadn't fully emerged yet, but it was only a matter of time. Through Chu Tian's actions today, Lin Yuqing knew that Chu Tian was a man who could be trusted, a man who wouldn't let Lin Yuting be wronged. However, the problem was that although Lin Yuting was beautiful, Chu Tian was not a shallow person. Did Chu Tian love Lin Yuting? If Chu Tian only regarded her as a friend, then Lin Yuting would surely get hurt in the future. Should he try to bring them together or separate them?
Lin Yuqing felt a bit of a headache. After thinking for a while, he decided not to think about it for now. Anyway, nothing would happen before the college entrance examination. Young people should handle their own affairs. After all, people have to learn to grow up gradually.
