Please, come home and practice the piano

Chapter 427 128. Listening to the Rain and Talking about Qin Porridge, Xiaomi's Dilemma

For a native of the Northwest, the rain in Rongcheng is quite unique.
-
It was less than half past seven in the morning, and there were light noises in the kitchen.

Li An was wearing a coat, sitting in front of the chopping board, holding a knife in one hand, and holding the slippery preserved egg in the other, he cut down again.

The drizzle was lingering outside the window, listening to the sound of the rain, and feeling the leisure of nature, he thought to himself that on such a rainy day, wouldn’t it be nice to cook a hot pot of porridge with preserved egg and lean meat.

However, preserved eggs are not easy to cut, unlike celery stalks, which are crisp and raw, and the bottom cannot be seen when you cut it, let alone the sound of "click". Get dull.

Not only that, but there will be a layer of dark egg yolk on the knife surface after cutting the preserved egg, which needs to be rinsed repeatedly with water.

After cutting the preserved eggs, you have to cut the meat and wash the rice. There is no leftover rice at home, so we can only cook it now. It takes more than an hour to complete a set.

So troublesome, isn't it convenient to order a takeaway?

Of course it is convenient.

But the joy of eating and drinking is not only in eating, but also in cooking. It is not just the moments when the ups and downs are spinning on the taste buds, but also the process of recording life.

Just like the rain outside the window at this moment, pattering, moistening things silently, it is the trace left by nature, while cooking, preparing ingredients one by one, one action of firing, frying and frying every process, are people's response to life Yearning and enthusiasm.

So on such a rainy day, wouldn’t it be beautiful to boil a pot of hot preserved egg and lean meat porridge.

Many times, Ang Lee will have associations in the process of cooking, and think of practicing the piano.

Practicing the piano pays attention to propriety. Just like cooking, you need to control the heat, when to slow down, when to go fast, when to stop thinking, and when to put aside distracting thoughts. This is all about the heat.

When the heat is up, the natural color and fragrance are strong.

"You are a poop of [-]."

Suddenly, there was a sound of drowsiness from the door of the bedroom, Li An turned his head, and Chen Xuan walked behind him rubbing his eyes.

"Morning, Teacher Chen."

"Morning, Teacher Li."

Chen Xuan hugged Li An's waist from behind, buried her head on the other's back, closed her eyes as if she would fall asleep again immediately, sniffed, and immediately regained her spirits, "What's delicious?"

As she said that, she immediately looked into the pot, "Wow," I saw that the pot was gurgling non-stop, and the salty aroma came out, which made people's index fingers move, and the color was browned, and there were small pieces of preserved eggs like agate. Tumbling, pink and white pork shreds are hidden among the sticky rice grains, appearing and disappearing with the warm fire.

"I want to eat three bowls."

Chen Xuan woke up, and quite sober.

"Don't worry, go wash up first." Li An took a spoon and stirred the pot twice, and observed, "It will probably take another 10 minutes to cook."

Chen Xuan snorted, let go of Li An's arms and stepped aside, "I'm not in a hurry, but I want to eat three bowls."

Li Anle: "This pot is enough for you to eat until night."

"yeah!"

Like a child, Chen Xuan left happily, using the happy things to cheer her up, she was going to do something big today.

Looking away from Chen Xuan's back, Li Anxin laughed at being so energetic this morning.

Then he looked back into the pot and continued stirring with a spoon.

As the saying goes, if the work is not done, the work will not be completed, the breath will not be evenly distributed, and the food will not be cooked.

Cooking is the same as practicing the piano, there is no rush or impatience.

Listening to the rain, cooking a pot of good porridge, is it not to experience life again.

Unknowingly, the tense nerves of the past few days relaxed a lot.

Putting down the spoon, Li An looked out the window to the farthest place. In the drizzle, the high-rise buildings in the distance were not as eye-catching as before, and then there was a relaxed look on his brows.

This May is bound to be busy.

It's ok.

Take it easy.

Come one by one.

After 15 minutes, Li An turned off the fire and started the pot.

"Dinner!"

Then with a meow, Bawan, who had been in the kitchen all morning, followed Li An and left the kitchen.
-
One dish of side dishes and two bowls of porridge, and the battle ends in 10 minutes.

Chen Xuan put down the porridge bowl, patted her stomach and burped, "It's so satisfying."

Li An smiled: "Isn't it three bowls?"

Chen Xuan: "Continue in the evening. I forgot to tell you yesterday. I made an appointment with Xiaoyu to go shopping in the morning, and went to her house for dinner at noon. I haven't seen my uncle and aunt for a long time."

Li An: "Sure, then how do you go, does she come to you or where do you meet?"

Chen Xuan: "She came to pick me up."

Li Ang: "Are you still coming up?"

Chen Xuan: "We won't come up, let's go directly."

Li An wiped his mouth, got up and opened the cabinet in the living room, took out two gift boxes from it and put them on the coffee table, "Go down and take them with you later."

Chen Xuan: "Keep it, it's all parents' wishes, I'll buy it now."

Li Ang: "They are all health products, and we can't eat them. You can save space and spend time picking them."

Chen Xuan nodded: "What do you arrange in the morning, are you practicing the piano?"

Li Ang: "Practice the piano, it's past noon, and Zhao Weida and Gao Ruijin have classes in the afternoon."

Chen Xuan: "I even forgot that you still have classes, and it feels like it's over after May [-]st."

Li An smiled: "We have May Day?"

After the meal, Chen Xuan began to change clothes, and Li An told her to wear thicker clothes while tidying up the bedroom.

Ten minutes later, the white mobile phone on the table in the living room rang.

Li An picked it up and shouted to the bathroom, "Sun Yuman."

Then, "You pick it up for me and tell her right away."

Li An picked it up, "Hello, May Day, Miss Sun, she's coming soon, come up and have a seat."

Sun Yuman's charming smile came from the phone, "Mr. Li, Happy Friday, I don't have an umbrella in the car, so I won't go up, please don't worry your wife."

The two chatted for a while, and Chen Xuan came to the living room with a windbreaker.

Li An handed the phone to Chen Xuan, gave a thumbs up by the way, and whispered, "It's so beautiful."

Chen Xuan rolled her eyes with an unspeakable obsession, and answered the phone: "Here we are."

Pick up the things at the door and step on the flat shoes.

Ang Lee: "Be safe and have fun."

Chen Xuan turned the doorknob, turned her face and pouted, "I'm leaving."

The next second, "You are going to die."

Then there was a burst of laughter on the phone, I don't know what Sun Yuman said just now.

After seeing Chen Xuan off, Li An turned around and went to the bathroom to wash his hands, and returned to the study to start today's piano practice.

The uniform and full hands in the same direction broke the quiet morning. When he realized that he had forgotten to lock the door of the study, Bawan had already jumped onto the piano board in two strides.

Bawan walked to the side of Transformers, wrapped his tail around his body, and lay down quietly.

Today Li An didn't push out the [-] yuan, and the rain continued to fall outside the window.
-
On the way to the city center by car, Sun Yuman heard a ghost story.

He stopped the car to the side of the road, "Is there anything wrong!? During the dangerous period, he doesn't wear a condom, and you don't take medicine. What are you two doing?! Marrying a child?"

Chen Xuan didn't know how to explain that night, but the matter has come to this point, it is meaningless to say these things, "Xiao Yu, I want to test it."

Sun Yuman then started the car and drove to the nearest pharmacy, "Does he know?"

Chen Xuan: "He has had enough things recently."

Sun Yuman sighed: "I don't know what to say, you two are too careless, what if you win the lottery? Do you want it?"

Chen Xuan didn't know, she really didn't know, but she still didn't feel like she was pregnant.

Sun Yuman was speechless: "Can this matter be based on feeling?"

Chen Xuan: "So I want to test it."

Sun Yuman was silent for a moment, "If it turns out yes, what should you do?"

Chen Xuan: "I can't."

Sun Yuman was surprised: "It's so straightforward, but... Hey, if it's true, you two might as well just do it this year."

Chen Xuan: "No."

Chen Xuan had been thinking about this issue last night, but finally strangled the idea to death.

Absolutely not.

The work of the two of them has just started this year and is on the rise. Even if getting married is a trivial matter, having a child is a major event.

They don't have the time and energy to deal with all this. If they get married and have children at this juncture, their plans and life rhythm will be completely disrupted, and it will not only cause trouble for the two of them, but also cause trouble for the two of them. The family is in trouble.

The most practical question is that my parents are still working, and Li An's father still needs someone to take care of her. She will definitely not be able to work during pregnancy, so who will take care of her and the child in her monologue in the future?Do you want Li An to put down his work and focus on taking care of his family?

Even if Li An is willing, she is not willing.

Buying a house and running a school in the next three years is her and Li Anding's plan, and it cannot be changed suddenly because of an unexpected event.

Sun Yuman understands, but. "But it's a little life after all, it belongs to you two."

Chen Xuan was already trying her best to avoid this question, but Sun Yuman kept mentioning that she was a little confused, as if she really had it.

moment.

"A priori." She said and looked out the window.

There was silence in the car.

Sun Yuman was a little surprised by Chen Xuan's calmness. If this matter happened to her, she would have been in a mess long ago.

Parking the car at the door of a pharmacy, Sun Yuman asked Chen Xuan to wait, and rushed out of the car without opening the umbrella.

When she came back, she had an extra yellow plastic bag in her hand. Chen Xuan took it and took a look inside. Inside were four small rectangular white boxes and a bottle of Nongfu Spring.

"Thanks for your hard work."

"It's not hard, the old aunt told me to use the morning urine test."

Sun Yuman didn't dare to wait any longer, and turned right to the south at the next intersection.

Chen Xuan was surprised: "Where is this going?"

"Go back to my house, or you have to wait until tomorrow morning?" Sun Yuman glanced at the time on the steering wheel, "You are drinking water now, hurry up and pee."

Chen Xuan: "Yes."

All the way to the green light, Chen Xuan kept drinking water during the period, but she drank a bottle of water and walked less than half of the distance. After another 10 minutes, the car drove into the community and stopped all the way to the door of the house.

Chen Xuan got out of the car and followed Sun Yuman into the house with her things. Sun's mother heard the movement and came out. Seeing the things in Chen Xuan's hand, she frowned and said, "You child, how many times have I told you."

"Hello, Aunt Xia." Chen Xuan put down her things and said hello obediently.

"Come in, come in and wipe off," Grandma Sun Zhang, Aunt Luo went to get a towel, then approached the two of them and asked, "Aren't you going to go shopping?"

"It's raining too much, so I'm back." Sun Yuman took Chen Xuan and walked upstairs, "Mom, we will accompany you at noon."

Before Sun Ma could reach out her hand, Chen Xuan had already been pulled to the stairs, "Manman, slow down, wipe it off first, ouch, what a big deal you are, I really am."

As he said that, he slapped his hands on his legs, then touched his neck and shouted softly, "Xiaoxuan, you two talk first, Auntie is ready to cook."

"Thank you, Aunt Xia, for your hard work."

"Got it, Mom! Don't cook so much, I don't want to eat leftovers at night."

The two sounds came at the same time, and Sun Ma smiled and shook her head, what kind of play did these two children play in the early morning, they were mysterious.

Muttering, she went back to the living room and turned off the TV. Since the child came back early, she started preparing earlier.

Back in the room, Sun Yuman locked the door, took out a pregnancy test stick and was about to disassemble it for research, only to see that Chen Xuan had already taken off her coat and walked into the bathroom.

She opened the bag and saw that there were only two left in it.

"Do you want me to go in and help you?"

she yelled at the bathroom door.

moment.

"Xiao Yu, just wait for me."

Outside the door, Sun Yuman's heart almost jumped out. She turned around and walked around the room. The more she thought about it, the more she didn't know whether it was fear or excitement. She still felt that this was not a bad thing, and she was not a student anymore. , I can also feel that the relationship between Xiaomi and Li An is quite stable, but why Xiaomi must
Going back to the bathroom wall, she knocked on the glass.

"Call me if something happens."

This time there was no response from the bathroom.
-
Chen Xuan thoroughly researched a series of issues such as how to use a pregnancy test stick and how to test for early pregnancy on the Internet three days ago.

The general saying is that more than ten days after the intercourse can be detected with a pregnancy test stick.

After unpacking and taking the kit in her hand, she took off her pants and sat on the toilet, closed her eyes and took a deep breath, brewing for a while.

The operation is very simple.

Putting down the kit again, she took out her phone and started counting the time.

15 minute later.

She picked up the kit and almost collapsed on the toilet the next second.

calm.

calm.

She breathed hard, telling herself to stay calm no matter what.

On the kit, there are two lines, one deep and one deep, which are indescribably conspicuous under the soft warm light.
-
After practicing piano at noon, Li An picked up his phone and saw three messages that needed to be answered.

One was that Fangzheng asked him if he wanted a hamburger.

Bawanyi: Thank you, as long as you are full.

One is two videos sent by Hu Kai.

Bawanyi: Both of you are great, pay attention to Dabao's wrist, if you see him hanging his wrist, pat him.

One is the lunch sent by Chen Xuan. The dishes are so rich and varied that it is definitely a first-class treatment.

Bawanyi: Greedy!eat more! !
After replying to the three messages, Li An glanced at the time, it was getting closer.

Then he called Che Yaoguang, and it was Che Lin who answered the phone.

"teacher!"

"Hehe, touch your head quickly, isn't it bulging?"

"Ok!"

"Is it still uncomfortable?"

"It's not hard."

"What did you have for lunch?"

"Fish and rice, I'm done eating"

"Haha, okay, you can eat well in the future, where is your dad? Let him listen."

Che Yaoguang on the other end of the phone answered the phone, "Hey, Mr. Li, you are there, tell me."

Li An asked about Che Lin's situation again, and Che Yaoguang said that the doctor had checked Che Lin again in the morning, and there was nothing wrong with it, so he could leave in the afternoon, and the rest could just go home and have a good rest.

"Okay, I'm relieved. You and the child's mother will have a good rest when you go back today. I guess you didn't sleep much at night."

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Li, for your concern. I'm going to call you again. If you have time recently, just let me know anytime."

Lao Che took the initiative to make an appointment for this meal before the game, and Li An said that he would wait for the Blue Sky Cup to end.

Li An thought for a while, "Then at noon tomorrow, is it convenient for you?"

Che Yaoguang: "Ms. Li, I have discussed it with her mother and set aside a day. Whether it is evening or noon, we will focus on your time."

Li Ang: "Hey, it's not necessary, is it?"

Che Yaoguang: "We also want to spend some time with our children."

Li Ang: "Okay, then the night after tomorrow."

Che Yaoguang: "Alright, alright, Mr. Li, wait here for my letter."

After hanging up the phone, Che Yaoguang put down the phone, turned around and saw Che Lin looking at him.

"Linlin, make an agreement with Teacher Li, and I will bring you and Teacher Li to dinner the night after tomorrow."

Che Lin nodded.

Che Yaoguang sat back on the side of the bed, "Just now you said that there is something you want to discuss with Dad, as long as you say it, Dad will satisfy you."

Before Li An called, the father and daughter were talking.

moment.

"Dad, I want to take an experiment."

Che Yaoguang was so frightened that he almost dropped his phone on the ground.
