Chapter 256 Isn’t it a surprise?
The other kind of dish made with fresh peppers has an even more different taste. The chopped peppers are fried to bring out the spicy flavor.
However, in order to ensure the taste of fresh peppers, they are not fried for too long, so that the moisture of the fresh peppers themselves is retained.
It tastes fragrant and spicy when you take a bite. It's perfect whether you mix it with noodles or rice, or dip it in steamed buns like they are doing now!
Li's mother made two cans of each kind, and now the three of them have eaten the whole can.
"Okay, put this in the refrigerator. Don't let it get greasy. It can be kept for a long time. You can't steal it or eat it as a snack!"
Li Xiyan's cheeks were bulging with food. "It's not that we ate too much, it's that the glass jar is too small."
Xia Anan chewed the steamed bun in her mouth and nodded.
But she felt that it couldn't be kept for too long. If she could eat as much as she wanted, she could finish a whole bottle in one day.
The spicier it is, the more I want to eat it, and I can't stop eating it.
In the end, it was Li's mother who stopped them from eating because she was worried that the three of them would feel uncomfortable in their stomachs.
After eating several steamed buns in a row, Xia Anan felt that she didn't need to eat lunch.
After tasting the chili sauce made by Li’s mother, my confidence suddenly increased.
Li Xiyan's family said it was delicious, but even Xia Anan had confirmed it was delicious. I'll make more tomorrow so that others can try it...
Because it was a holiday, Li Xiyan's family also had to prepare for the holiday. Xia Anan didn't want to disturb them any longer, so she prepared to leave after lunch.
"Let Xiyang take you there. He happens to be going shopping, so you two can go there!"
Li's mother quickly pulled the man out and told him to drive.
"Yes, I was just about to go shopping and I'll take you back on the way."
How could Xia Anan not see that they didn't actually want to buy anything, they just wanted to send her back to the hotel? She couldn't help but be moved.
"Thank you, Auntie. That's a bother."
But it's raining today, so it might not be convenient to take a taxi, so she didn't refuse.
The car arrived at the hotel quickly and Xia Anan got off after thanking them.
"An An! Wait a minute!"
After taking two steps, Xia Anan heard a voice behind her. She turned around and found a bag of mooncakes stuffed into her mouth.
Li Xiyang said: "Even though it's not a festival, we still have to eat mooncakes. It rained today, don't catch a cold when you go back."
Without waiting for Xia Anan to answer, he strode away.
Xia Anan got caught in the rain during the day and was worried about catching a cold, so she asked the hotel staff for some cold medicine and drank it before going to bed.
In the middle of the night, when I was half asleep, I heard someone knocking on the door.
Her head was a little dizzy, and she straightened up, "Who is it? Is there something wrong?"
There was no sound outside. Xia Anan opened the door a little, "Who...how did you get here..."
Before she could finish her words, the person outside the door squeezed in and hugged her.
A cool breeze with a familiar scent surrounded her, and Xia Anan couldn't help but shiver.
Lu Qingyuan let go of his hand with a smile on his face, which showed a bit of pride.
"How is it? Are you surprised?"
Xia Anan nodded, then quickly reacted, his eyes falling on Xia Baobao who was sleeping in his arms.
The rain outside should not have stopped yet. Lu Qingyuan was a little damp, but the little guy was well protected.
"come on in."
Xia Anan ordered him to put the little guy on the bed. Maybe he was really sleepy, and after being tossed around like that, Xia Baobao showed no intention of waking up.
Coming out of the bedroom, Lu Qingyuan saw the cold medicine on the table and asked, "Do you have a cold?"
"No, I came back late today from outside and got caught in the rain. You should eat something as a precaution."
"Ah."
The two of them sat on the sofa and didn't speak for a while.
Xia Anan glanced at the time. It was 1:30 in the morning. She didn't know how he managed to bring Xia Baobao all the way from Beijing in such weather.
"you……"
"I……"
They both spoke at the same time, and were stuck at the same time.
Xia Anan couldn't help laughing, "You speak first."
Lu Qingyuan coughed lightly: "It's the Mid-Autumn Festival. Are you surprised to see us? Although it's a little late... it's raining and there's no moon..."
"Well, it's a surprise. I thought I would have to spend the holiday alone this year."
Xia Anan wanted to say that she was more surprised than happy. She was always a little scared when she heard someone knocking on her door late at night. She opened it while she was half asleep.
As he was thinking this, the person in front of him suddenly stood up.
"I'll go ask the front desk if anyone is still available and get another room. You can rest first."
Xia Anan took back what she was saying and stood up: "I'll go with you. Xia Baobao shouldn't be awake at this time."
The two of them wandered downstairs. Perhaps it was really too late. Apart from the patrolling security guards of the hotel, there were no other staff members.
Lu Qingyuan took out his phone: "Let me check other hotels."
"Forget it, it's too late now, don't run away, the bed in the room is quite big, let's just stay here for one night and talk about it tomorrow."
"...Okay, thank you for your help."
The two returned to the room once again, and this time they felt a little awkward. They had slept in the same room many times before, but this time they slept in the same bed...
"I'm going to take a shower, you go to bed first."
Lu Qingyuan held it in for a long time, his mind went blank, and he felt that what he said was not right. He picked up the clothes in his suitcase and ran to the bathroom.
Xia Anan carefully moved Xia Baobao to the middle of the bed. The little guy whimpered a few times and shrank towards her.
The bed is two meters long, with half for each person, so the space is quite large.
But after Lu Qingyuan came out of the shower, Xia Anan decided to take back what she said.
It was quite big for her and Xia Baobao, but it was different for Lu Qingyuan.
"How about I just sleep on the sofa outside?"
It was fine to sleep in the same bed with Xia Baobao before, as if it was like holding a large doll. But now there is one more person, and Xia Anan couldn’t sleep for a while.
"How did you get here? It must be hard to buy plane tickets during the holidays, right?"
"I flew to the next city first, then drove on the highway. I expected to arrive at 7 or 8 o'clock, but the traffic was too serious."
Lu Qingyuan's voice was filled with regret, "If we had arrived earlier, we could have celebrated Mid-Autumn Festival together."
"Now we can celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival together."
Lu Qingyuan brought the little guy here from such a long distance, and Xia Anan would be lying if she said she wasn't surprised.
"Well, even though we didn't spend Mid-Autumn Festival together this year, we will definitely be together next year."
The effect of the cold medicine was still continuing to take effect. Xia Anan's eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and she didn't even know when she fell asleep.
The next day she was awakened by the sound of whispers outside. When she saw the large suitcase at the end of the bed, she realized that Lu Qingyuan had brought Xia Baobao to see her.
My head is still a little dizzy, maybe I really have a cold.
"What are you doing?"
