Chapter 393 The kitchen in the forest
"I have been taking care of you here these days. Believe me, I will definitely keep your body well..."
Liu Zhen held Qiu Po's hand while watching the tears in his eyes accumulate more and more. At this time, Qiu Po suddenly stretched out his other hand and held Liu Zhen.
"If a man doesn't cry easily... hold back his tears... How did I teach you since I was a child?"
Liu Zhen sniffed and said with a sob, "Yes." As he said that, he wiped his eyes with the back of his hand and blinked hard, hoping to let the tears go back.
But the eyes are still red.
Qiu Po looked at the person in front of her lovingly, and remembered that he grew up step by step to what he is now, and felt very relieved, "Do you know? The most correct thing I did is to raise you slowly..."
Liu Zhen nodded, "Qiu Po, I haven't had time to be filial to you yet. You must live well and be healthy. After I finish dealing with the matter here, I will follow you back to live and let you live in your old age."
Qiu Po smiled, she took a deep breath, and after a while, her expression improved a little, "You have something you need to do, I can't drag you down... and... I saw you growing up... just to make you a useful person... instead of doing nothing with me, an old woman... in the mountains and forests..."
Liu Zhen shook his head quickly, "Don't worry, I will take good care of you. Are you tired? Let's take a break first, I'll go out to make something for you, and make some soup for you later."
Qiu Po sighed. After saying so many words, she was already very tired. "Okay. You go first, I'll sleep for a while."
Liu Zhen stood up, carefully tucked the corners of her quilt, then turned around and left gently, closing the door.
I happened to see the old monster in Tianshan. He was sitting on a big rock at the door and looked at him, "What? Are you almost out of here?"
"It seems that she is very ill this time, but she doesn't want to go out to see a doctor, so I'll take care of her here."
"You can use your internal strength to help her treat her, I don't know if it will be useful."
Liu Zhen nodded, "I originally wanted to do this, but I don't want her to know about my work in Quicksand. She will feel it is very dangerous and probably worried."
The old monster in Tianshan smiled, "You don't know what the old man thinks. If I have a child I raised since childhood, the thing I feel most gratified is to see him do what he likes and realize his own value."
Liu Zhen was silent for a while before nodding, "Okay, I'll treat her tonight."
"If you don't succeed, don't blame yourself too much. If you are about to die, we cannot change our fate against the will of heaven. We can only let it go and accept the best results."
Liu Zhen nodded and pointed to a big banyan tree in the distance. "I'm going to that direction. There is a vegetable field behind it. It should be where Qiu Po has been farming. I have planted a lot of vegetables. I'll dig up some vegetables. You boil the water first, and I'll cook something for Qiu Po to eat later."
"You go, I'll go boiling water." As he said that, the old monster in Tianshan turned around and walked towards the kitchen in the side room.
Liu Zhen quickly walked to the side of the big banyan tree. He looked over and saw a large vegetable field, neatly arranged with various vegetables.
It seems that Qiu Po is so old that she still hasn't forgotten how to be self-sufficient.
He walked to the vegetable field, carefully picked vegetables and tomatoes, and then pulled two more carrots, all of which were not moistened by any fertilizer, so it looked very fresh and full of the smell of nature.
He put all the vegetables he picked in a basket, squatted beside the vegetable field and picked them, processing the remaining things.
I don’t know how long it took, but after he quickly finished all the dishes, he took them back. As soon as he walked into the kitchen, the old monster in Tianshan frowned and looked at Liu Zhen, looking desperate.
Liu Zhen was puzzled, "What's wrong?"
"How do you lit this?"
He was holding a lighter in his hand. Qiu Po used to use matches, but he didn't expect that he would bring a lighter in the kitchen now. Qiu Po's kitchen is still the same kind of old-fashioned kitchen, which is a floor pot. She said she couldn't use the gas, and Liu Zhen was also afraid that something would happen if she accidentally leaked when using the gas.
So he asked him to cook the floor pot as before. After all, the dishes made from the floor pot are very delicious.
The old monster in Tianshan had never seen anything like a lighter. Liu Zhen walked up and reached out to demonstrate to him how to make the lighter come out of flames.
The old monster smiled, "It's so strange." He lit the fire, covered the lid of the pot, and Liu Zhen was washing the dishes with water next to him. Both of them were silent, and no one took the initiative to speak, breaking the atmosphere.
Liu Zhen knows that he is not good at comforting others by his natural monsters, but Liu Zhen is still very grateful to him for being by his side quietly.
"The water boils, you can put the dishes in and cook them."
Liu Zhen nodded. He had just cut all the dishes into their own appropriate shapes and put them all into the pot. He heard a clamor of water, and then the old monster burned even more vigorously.
Liu Zhen stood beside him and watched the water temperature slowly calmed down, then rolled up again, then took out the various dishes he had just poured into and put them in a large bowl.
Pour all the water out, Liu Zhen told the old monster, "The fire must be bigger, I'm starting to cook now."
The old monster in Tianshan nodded, "I understand."
Although it was his first time burning fire, he was still very good. It seems that this person really learns everything very quickly.
Liu Zhen cooked the vegetables that had just been blanched in hot water, put oil in the pot, poured the vegetables back in and started stir-frying.
After a while, the aroma of oil penetrated into the dish. Liu Zhen sniffed it, then poured some boiling water into it, took out a pack of his own secret sauce from the bag he brought, threw it all into the water, and covered the pot with a lid.
The old monster in Tianshan was still burning the fire. Not long after, the whole kitchen was filled with a very magical smell. The old monster looked up at Liu Zhen, "What did you do?"
"I just put the sauce I made into."
"What sauce? It tastes so amazing, it smells really good."
Liu Zhen smiled, "This is the sauce I have always made secretly. The recipe cannot be told to you, but I can guarantee that it has many precious medicinal materials added to it, specially prepared for people with weak bodies. I didn't expect that I just made this thing casually. Today I can use it on Qiu Po. I feel like everything is destined to be done."
