Chapter 59 Choosing the bitter taste between sweet and salty Ouyang was about to break through his defense, and Uncle Luo's attack had just begun. Under Qu Jing's command, Uncle Luo unclenched his fists and began to raise his arms. While lifting, he changed into a comfortable position, leaned back on the sofa, and glanced up at the cameraman Xiao Luo, who was standing at the back. "The one who took the photo, I remember it was you who came here to take the photo last time. Isn't there a second person in your neighborhood committee who knows how to use a camera? The young man who took photos of me in Shanghai 80 years ago took better photos than you. Okay, Chen Huihong, you are not a person who saves three melons and two dates. How much trouble will it cost to hire a professional? " "Professional people do professional things. How many professionals are there in your neighborhood committee who are all just dawdling? I saw the public account last time. What kind of picture did I make? A lonely old man? I am that kind of pathetic person. ” "And who wrote that article? Caring for the elderly who are alone and widowed starts from around you. How much is the house price per square meter in our community? Am I a widowed person? Do I need care? If no one writes an article, go online and spend 20 yuan to hire a gunman to write it. What comes out is definitely more valuable than the one you posted.” Qu Jing patted Luo Jun to signal him to stop talking. She put on her stethoscope and said, "Come on, take a deep breath." Luo Jun began to take a deep breath. Xiaoqian, who was responsible for writing the article, also began to take a deep breath. "Every time so many people come here, I can't figure out what they are doing. I can't take pictures well, and I can't write well. Every time, a few stupid people come over, especially the young man at the back. I remember him coming several times."
"It's okay if he's not good-looking, but he's not smart enough. He always stands at the door with two bags of fruit. People who don't know better think he's here to deliver takeaways." Ouyang carrying fruit:… Haven't you already scolded me? How can you still scold me? ! "And you." Luo Jun glanced at Qu Jing, "You are thirty-two years old, and you don't know how to find a partner. You want to be like me and die alone." "I also had a partner back then. It was my choice to live alone forever. You, a passive single, have no choice at all." Qu Jing smiled: "Isn't this because I'm busy with work?" Luo Jun sneered: "You spend all your time on work looking for a partner, and now your children are as old as Chen Huihui." After speaking, Luo Jun glanced at Chen Huihong: "Being a mother is also interesting for you. If you adopt a child, you should raise it well. What does it mean to put the child in the cafeteria to eat steamed buns every day?" Qin Huai was surprised when he heard what Luo Jun said. I thought that although Luo Jun had inconvenient legs and feet and could not go out, he was quite well informed. Even Chen Huihui knew that he was eating steamed buns in Yunzhong Canteen some time ago. "The man who makes steamed buns is even more outrageous." Luo Jun turned to Qin Huai, "With such a good skill, he makes steamed buns every afternoon, and there are so many delicious snacks. If you don't know how to make steamed buns, what's so delicious about steamed buns? You don't know how to make steamed buns. Just make the fermented steamed buns better, can you make some with fillings?” Ouyang, who had already pricked up his ears and was ready to hear how Luo Jun would criticize Qin Huai:? ? ? No, Mr. Luo, why do you still treat me differently? Are you swearing? Why didn't you even make a personal attack? Where's your vitriol? Your condescension? Where's your silky little combo? Take it out, open Qin Huai's eyes, and use the same spirit you scolded me for just now on Qin Huai! After venting his anger after getting up, Luo Jun felt much better and stopped paying attention to the people in the neighborhood committee. He told them to do what they should as long as they didn't damage anything at home. Both Ronaldinho and Xiao Qian came with a mission. Whether the articles or photos were about Luo Jun's daily life, they were led by the nanny to other rooms to take photos and records. Although Luo Jun doesn't go out, his daily life is very rich. His home has a studio, a video room, and a cloakroom converted into a butterfly specimen display. Uncle Luo usually likes to admire his specimens, watch movies in the video room, and occasionally paint oil paintings. He is a well-known model lonely uncle within a ten-mile radius and is a key publicity target. This is why even though Luo Jun is recognized by everyone in the neighborhood committee as a difficult man, he still comes to visit him regularly.
Ouyang and another person followed him to see the studio. Qin Huai originally wanted to take a look, but Luo Jun stopped him. "Tell me, Master Xiao Qin, why did you come to see me?" Luo Jun looked at Qin Huai and put his hands flat on the table, waiting for Qu Jing to draw his blood. Chen Huihong walked to the kitchen carrying premade three-inch buns, five-inch buns and four-pack dumplings, preparing to put these snacks in the refrigerator. Qin Huai was stunned by what Luo Jun said, and subconsciously blurted out: "I simply support the work of the neighborhood committee and give back to customers at the same time, so I am ready..." "Don't talk to me about things that are there or not." Luo Jun interrupted Qin Huai impatiently, "You must have other purposes, otherwise you would just come and see what I am doing. I have never written a bad review for your cafeteria. , tell me the truth." Qu Jing gave Luo Jun a suspicious look. Luo Jun raised his voice: "I really didn't write it!" Being stared at by Luo Jun, Qin Huai felt a bit oppressed. Chen Huihong was indeed right, Luo Jun indeed looked like a high-ranking young master from aristocratic family. When you look at someone with that condescending look, the invisible sense of oppression can make the person breathless. Could this be the legendary domineering spirit belonging to the protagonist? Qin Huai muttered in his heart, it shouldn't be, he is the protagonist. "I don't like to owe favors. You have brought so many things today. If you have any requests, please tell me immediately. As long as it is not too outrageous, I will handle it for you. There is no store like this after passing this village. If you don't tell me, I will do it for you. When there is no more.” Qin Huai said without any hesitation: "I would like to ask you to help me taste the herbal tea in the store." "I have brought all the herbal teas. Five-flower tea, three flavors of tangerine peel tea, Luo Han Guo tea, liver-clearing and eyesight-improving tea, and hand-made lemon tea are all here." As he spoke, Qin Huai arranged several cups of herbal tea on the table. Qu Jing also cooperated and moved the medical kit to the side so as not to block the herbal tea. Luo Jun looked at the 7 cups of herbal tea on the table, and for the first time he looked confused. He looked up at Qin Huai, then looked down at the herbal tea, and then turned to look at Qu Jing: "Can you drink it now?" Qu Jing nodded: "The examination has been completed. If the reason why you don't go out now is not simply because you don't want to go out, but because you have some problems with your legs and feet, I suggest you go to our hospital for a examination. The rehabilitation department has good physical therapy. How much did you pay for the massage and masseur?” "I know my body well and it is very healthy." Qu Jing said no more: "Then you should pay attention to daily maintenance and three meals. A detailed inspection report will be given to you within three days. You can drink herbal tea. I remember Sister Chen told me last time. Considering your current situation, Drinking some Qiwei dampness-removing tea is good for your health.” As soon as these words came out, several people standing at the door of the studio quietly observing the situation in the living room took a breath of cold air. "I thought Master Xiao Qin had already given us a bad breath, but I didn't expect Dr. Qu to be the real king." Xiaoqian said, the manuscript he wrote was not even worth 20 yuan. "Don't you think Master Xiao Qin is the scheming one? Tasting the herbal tea shows that it's more than just this one drink!" Ronaldinho felt it was time to speak out for his idol Qin Huai. "No, I just don't understand. Mr. Luo's attitude towards Dr. Qu and Sister Hong has been better for a day or two. Why do I think his attitude towards Qin Huai is better than that towards Dr. Qu and Sister Hong? The one who makes dim sum Can you do whatever you want if you are good at craftsmanship?" Ouyang was puzzled. Ronaldinho, Xiaoqian, and the nanny gave Ouyang a look that said otherwise. Ouyang is autistic. Seeing that Qu Jing said it was time to drink herbal tea, Luo Jun took a sip of the five-flower tea in front of him and commented without changing his expression: "It's average." Luo Han Guo tea. "good."
Tea for clearing liver and improving eyesight. "improvise." Chenpi Tea No. 1. "That's it." Chenpi Tea No. 2. "Is this different from the cup just now?" Chenpi Tea No. 3. "It tastes bad." Hand-made lemon tea. "You call this herbal tea?" After tasting each cup, Luo Jun came to the conclusion: "Your herbal tea is not good at making it, it's not as good as those broken steamed buns of yours." Qin Huai said nothing. Just now, every time Luo Jun took a sip of tangerine peel tea, he had to concentrate and listen to see if the game prompt sounded, but naturally it didn't. Obviously, these three cups of tangerine peel tea were not to Luo Jun's taste. To be honest, it's not surprising. Tangerine peel tea is a very standard herbal tea that can be made with many different ingredients. You don’t even need to boil it, just soak it in hot water. If Luo Jun likes to drink a certain taste, it's normal for Qin Huai to be unable to make it for a while. Qin Huai decided to ask directly. He finally figured out that Uncle Luo liked straight shots. If you talk to him in a roundabout way, he will definitely get upset and scold you, but if you get straight to the point and be very sincere, he won't ask you why even if he doesn't understand. "Grandpa Luo, do you think there is room for improvement in these herbal teas? Especially the tangerine peel tea." Qin Huai asked. Luo Jun has already eaten shortbread. Although he is old, his teeth are good and they make a crunching sound, but he doesn't know if they are dentures. "Room for improvement? There's really no room for improvement in your herbal tea." Luo Jun took a sip of tangerine peel tea and asked, "Did you add sugar to the herbal tea?" Qin Huai boldly guessed: "Don't you like drinks with added sugar?" Qin Huai knew that many people believed that herbal tea could not be boiled with sugar. The more bitter the tea, the more effective it would be. For example, Zhao Rong, although she also has a sense of taste, she insists that herbal tea should be drunk without sugar, and adding sugar is heresy. Except for the seven-flavor dampness-removing tea, that thing tastes really bad without sugar, and is no different from traditional Chinese medicine. "How can you drink herbal tea without adding sugar? What's the difference between that and drinking Chinese medicine?" Luo Jun said, sitting upright, "It's because you don't know how to cook it." "Then can you teach me?" Qin Huai looked like he was asking for advice humbly. Luo Jun paused and said slowly: "You can't make tangerine peel tea by adding rock sugar."
"Got to add brown sugar and salt." Qin Huai:...? ? ? What the hell? ? ? ? Tell me again what to add? Brown sugar and salt? ! Who makes tangerine peel tea with brown sugar and salt? When cooking, add some salt to taste. Do you know that the ancestral motto of our Qin family is that you can only add rock sugar when making tangerine peel tea! At this moment, Qin Huai suddenly felt like he was listening to others discussing whether to eat sweet or salty tofu pudding. Suddenly someone interrupted and said that you are all wrong. Dou pudding should not be eaten sweet or salty, it must be bitter! feeling. Not the uncle. I respect you as a 92-year-old man. But you can’t be so heretical. Add brown sugar and salt to tangerine peel tea. If you say this, the whole Qinjia Village will not agree! As soon as these words came out, Qu Jing couldn't stand it anymore and said, "You are really messing around. How can you make tea with salt?" "This is how it should be cooked, so that the tangerine peel tea tastes delicious." Luo Jun said stubbornly, "You young people don't understand at all. This is the secret recipe." Qin Huai looked at Luo Jun silently. Luo Jun also looked back at Qin Huai firmly. "Let's do it." Qin Huai said, "If you insist on adding brown sugar and salt to make tangerine peel tea, I will cook one for you tomorrow afternoon and bring it over for you to drink." Anyway, this is Luo Jun's own side mission. If he has made up his mind, Qin Huai feels there is nothing to say. Just wish him success. "I'll drink it if I want. Don't bring it to me. I'll drink it in your cafeteria!" Luo Jun said loudly. The nanny heard this and rushed out: "Mr. Luo, you have to go out tomorrow!" "Not tomorrow." Luo Jun finished eating shortbread and Dingsheng cake, "I haven't finished watching the TV series yet. I have to watch the TV series tomorrow." "The day after tomorrow, I will go to your cafeteria in the afternoon and drink in front of you." "I want to tell you with practical actions, tangerine peel tea must be boiled with brown sugar and salt!" As soon as Luo Jun's sonorous and powerful words fell, Chen Huihong walked out of the kitchen with her mobile phone and said, "We have taken inventory. The refrigerator is full of pork, beef, seafood and mutton, and there is half a chicken. There is no fruit. There is no fruit in the kitchen." There is only a small handful of green vegetables.” "Grandpa Luo, you should eat more green vegetables. Eating a lot of fish and meat every day is not good for your stomach." Qu Jing said. Luo Jun glared at Chen Huihong: "When did you go in to look at the refrigerator?"
"I eat in the canteen now, and the refrigerator is full of ingredients for Xiao Zhang's soup." "I don't even eat vegetables when I go to the cafeteria." Chen Huihong complained ruthlessly, "I bumped into Xiao Zhang in the cafeteria, and every time he packed a bag of three meat and zero vegetables + kelp and pork ribs soup." "Eat more vegetables." Qu Jing said, "Today's inspection is over. If you want to go out to the canteen the day after tomorrow, I will make a special trip to witness your first outing in 8 months and 13 days this year." Chen Huihong nodded: "We have to celebrate." "Many people in our community are betting on whether you will go out this year and whether you can continue to set the record for the longest time without going out in our community." Luo Jun:… Luo Jun got up angrily, returned to the room with the cakes in his arms, and shouted loudly: "Xiao Zhang, see the guests off." Qin Huai:… "Do you usually communicate like this?" Luo Jun is 92 years old after all, and he is not afraid of making other people angry. "Appropriate mood swings are good for blood circulation. Mr. Luo is such a homebody that the number of steps he takes on WeChat every day does not exceed 100. He either sits or lies down. He also likes to order takeout at home. This is also good for his health." Qu Jing He explained, "I'm usually very busy, and the hospital is a little far away from here, so it's not convenient to come here. I always ask Sister Hong to come and chat with Mr. Luo to arouse his mood." "A large number of people can liven up the atmosphere. Master Xiao Qin, I think Mr. Luo likes you very much. If you have time, you can come often to chat with Mr. Luo and communicate with him...herbal tea?" At this point, Qu Jing was a little curious: "Is salt really added to making tangerine peel tea?" Qin Huai:… Qin Huai solemnly said: "No, absolutely not!" "You can make tangerine peel tea without adding sugar, but you can never add salt!" "Sugar can only be rock sugar, brown sugar is absolutely not allowed!" I have something busy during the day today, so the update is late. This is two-in-one
