Chapter 306 Exclusive Secret Recipe Hot Pot Base

Lu Jingze touched his nose and explained: "Isn't this just for you? I don't do this to others! Xiao Qi! Don't get me wrong! I am a person with principles and bottom line!"

Gu Xiaoqi didn't say anything, but looked at Lu Jingze with unpleasant eyes.

Haha~ I'll just look and not say anything!

She really believed what was said, but this preference was too much towards her!

What a sweet burden.

Her impression of Lu Jingze has changed drastically compared to the first time they met.

"People with principles and bottom lines, can we please have a bowl of hot wontons and forget all the unhappiness we just had?"

Gu Xiaoqi made a funny and flattering expression.

Lu Jingze looked doting and helpless.

Two bowls of wontons came up, and Gu Xiaoqi poured a lot of vinegar and chili oil into them. Eating a bowl of sour and spicy wontons in this weather was simply wonderful.

Seeing that Xiao Qi only had eyes for wontons, Lu Jingze stared at his bowl pitifully and silently.

Then I followed Gu Xiaoqi’s example and added vinegar and chili peppers.

Well, don't say anything yet.

The food is rich and delicious. The sourness of the vinegar and the fragrance of the chili, coupled with the richness of the soup base, combined with the cold weather, is really a unique experience.

The big bowl of wontons is very big in quantity, the boss lady is really affordable, Lu Jingze can eat 80% full with this bowl!

The two of them ate until they were only half full, and then they slowed down.

In the end, Lu Jingze drank up the entire bowl of wontons along with the soup, and even Gu Xiaoqi drank down only a little bit of the soup base.

The taste was indeed delicious. Both of them were sweating slightly. They paid and walked out of the wonton stall, feeling warm all over.

Gu Xiaoqi was very full and burped. He quickly covered his mouth and looked around to see if anyone saw him.

Lu Jingze was laughing secretly on the side, but got another roll of the eyes from Gu Xiaoqi.

The two of them felt warm from the inside out and didn't feel the cold outside at all. They walked towards the park in the snow at a leisurely pace.

After strolling for forty or fifty minutes, he headed towards home. Passing by a bookstore on the corner, Gu Xiaoqi went into the store and picked out a few books.

When I got home, it was exactly three or four o'clock.

Qin Guizhi saw the two people coming back.

"You two are back? What do you want to eat tonight? I thought our family hasn't had hotpot this winter, do you want to have hotpot tonight?" Qin Guizhi said.

Gu Xiaoqi's eyes lit up, she loved hotpot the most!

"Sure, I love hotpot the most! Are there enough dishes at home? If not, Jingze and I can go out and buy some. We haven't changed our clothes yet!"

Qin Guizhi smiled and said, "Hehe, that's what I mean. You two buy some sesame paste, red noodles and ready-made chives. I'll make a dipping sauce when you come back. Then buy some green vegetables, dried tofu, beef rolls and mutton rolls. There's enough for the rest at home!"

Gu Xiaoqi nodded, took Lu Jingze's wrist, and slowly went out again.

Anyway, it’s still early, so there’s no rush.

The two of them were walking around the vegetable market, feeling like an old couple.

Lu Jingze also enjoyed this down-to-earth feeling, which was particularly warm and sweet.

What's more, I saw a different Gu Xiaoqi from usual. He was bargaining with the owner of the vegetable stall. He was lively and so cute.

They quickly bought all the things Qin Guizhi asked them to buy and then they walked back.

When I came back, I went to see Xu Jinan and invited him to my house for hotpot.

Xu Jinan followed the two of them back.

In the evening, Gu Xiaoqi suggested making two flavors of hot pot, one spicy and one tomato beef.

When Qin Guizhi heard about tomato beef, she thought it was new. She had never eaten anything of this flavor before. At home, she usually just cooked it with plain water and rarely had spicy food.

Gu Xiaoqi said that he had his own secret recipe, and he persuaded Qin Guizhi to leave, then closed the kitchen door.

There was a bag of Hai Lao’s sour and fragrant tomato hot pot base in Gu Xiaoqi’s space, and she secretly added it to the pot when she was cooking in the kitchen.

It was "made" effortlessly, and for the spicy flavor, Qin Guizhi had a sudden idea to stir-fry it with butter, but Gu Xiaoqi vetoed it outright.

He took out another bag of spicy beef hotpot base, added water to both pots, and stirred them to make the pots cloudy, so as to slightly cover up the debris inside.

When Gu Xiaoqi asked Lu Jingze to bring the pot outside, the whole house was filled with fragrance.

Lu Jing'an's appetite was so great that his saliva was watering.

"Sister-in-law, you smell so good, I can't wait just by smelling it!"

Gu Xiaoqi said proudly: "Of course, this is your sister-in-law's exclusive secret recipe. It smells good and tastes even better. Just eat it! One bite will be silent!"

The family sat around the dining table and put the ingredients into the hot pot, because Lu Jingze would be returning to the army tomorrow and would only come back once every ten days or half a month.

So, Qin Guizhi took some wine and had a drink.

"Let's have a drink today, Jingze. Don't worry, go back to the army. I will take good care of the family!" Qin Guizhi said.

Gu Xiaoqi smiled and continued: "Well, Jingze, don't worry, don't worry about us!"

Lu Jingze glanced at Gu Xiaoqi unhappily and thought to himself, you are the most troublesome one!

After a hotpot meal, everyone was impressed by Gu Xiaoqi’s exclusive secret recipe. It was the most delicious hotpot they had ever eaten.

Qin Guizhi is doing the finishing work today. She said that as she gets older, she needs to move more. She wasn't busy in the kitchen today, so she had to wash the dishes to exercise.

Gu Jingan was writing calligraphy on the clean dining table. Xu Jinan happened to be there, and the old and the young were concentrating on calligraphy.

Lu Jingze and Gu Xiaoqi sat on the sofa, watching TV and chatting idly.

"Xiao Qi, after I return to the army tomorrow, you must not go to unfamiliar places when you are alone, and do not go out at night. Also, do not help others casually. There are so many people on the street. If you don't look for a strong man but a little girl like you, then there is a problem. You must be cautious, understand?"

"By the way, if you see that man again, be sure to tell me. Remember the army's phone number. If anything happens, be sure to tell me immediately!"

Lu Jingze kept chattering on and on, and Gu Xiaoqi's ears were about to get calluses!

"I know! I know! Why are you nagging me like that? I'm not a child anymore. Besides, it's broad daylight and the world is clear! Your wife is so smart, you can rest assured!"

Lu Jingze sighed: "I'm worried! Not at all! I'm afraid you'll be like what you did today, trusting others just because of your intuition!"
