Overturned Tower

Vol 2 Chapter 25: at home

Delphinium sat on the spot for a while, then slowly got up and went to the kitchen.

She deep-linked all afternoon, which made her a little mentally exhausted. There is an urgent need to supplement nutrition through eating.

Fortunately, she already knew the layout of Russell's house like the back of her hand, and being in his house was the same as being in her own... But it was indeed the first time for her to open the refrigerator in Russell's house.

It’s not that delphiniums can’t cook—

Although she is usually too lazy to cook, whether Russell goes to her house or not, Delphinium always eats the food cooked by her mother, and if she is in the company, she always orders takeaway... But in fact, Delphinium's cooking is quite good. She also actually cooked for Russell for a while.

Although it is not like a master chef in a high-end restaurant uses various ingredients, at least he can make meat dishes delicious and vegetarian dishes nutritious.

But maybe it was so nutritious that when she tried to feed Russell some vegetarian dishes, she couldn't feed them at all, and it was even less nutritious to just eat meat.

Delphinium’s appetite is quite large, but after all, it’s for two people, so she usually cooks three or four dishes—two of which are vegetarian and one is pure meat. Occasionally add a half-meat and half-vegetarian dish.

Her meat dishes are pretty good—delphinium can even make dishes that are difficult to cook at home, such as crispy pork knuckle, roast chicken, barbecued pork, and Shenjing roast goose. This is the dish her mother taught her when she was a child.

The delphinium’s vegetarian dishes are more extreme, such as boiled vegetables in olive oil, cabbage and egg salad, mashed potatoes, boiled broccoli, cold bitter gourd, carrot stewed onions... When she tried to feed Russell, Russell would always shake his head The performance is very resistant. It's like feeding medicine to a pet cat at home, basically you have to force it to feed it.

The only thing I am willing to eat is winter melon with orange juice, but I mainly eat orange juice. He even licked off the orange juice once and spit out the winter melon, causing the delphinium to give him a gentle slap with its tail.

This also makes delphinium very helpless... Although she also likes to eat meat, delphinium has a strong self-discipline. She knows how much meat she eats every day, how much vegetarian food she needs to eat next, and how much exercise she needs after that. And delphinium is the type that eats less carbohydrates, which allows her to maintain a figure that can see the vest line even though her appetite is twice that of Russell.

And Russell is the type who doesn't move at all after eating.

No matter how the delphinium could be dragged, Russell would just spread it into a cat cake peacefully on the sofa. Combined with Russell's picky eating behavior of not eating vegetarian dishes, Delphinium was very worried about his health. Although it seems to be fine now, but looking at his uncle's body shape... Russell at least has a fat gene. After all, his main job is a hero, a public figure who looks at his image, and his side job is the deputy director of the executive department... If you don't control your diet now, and then lose weight violently when you get fat enough to affect your image, it will hurt your body.

So now, Delphinium will often take Russell out for dinner. After all, Russell does not completely avoid vegetarian dishes. If he cooks them particularly well, he will still eat a little. The reason he gave is that Russell's appetite is really too small, and he is very greedy. In order to prevent himself from getting full without two mouthfuls of delicious food, he will give priority to eating the dishes he likes, and he will be full before he finishes eating, so he will never eat the dishes he doesn't like.

And if you go out to eat, at least once in a while, you can still slip away the cat.

Although Russell often coquettishly wants to take a taxi back or let Wuming drive to pick him up, but at this time, no matter if Delphinium is a little stricter or coaxes him nicely, Russell will still reluctantly leave home.

Some extra exercise—Russell's color is also a little orange. On a cat, it would be a disturbing color.

Over time, Delphinium stopped restocking the refrigerator at Russell's house. After all, I often don't bother to make up Russell, and it's quite wasteful to put things away.

Delphinium lived through poverty when she was a child, and the fear of that time is still seared in her heart. Although there is no shortage of money at all now, the good habit of thrift is still engraved on the bone.

...but that's what it said.

When Delphinium opened the refrigerator and saw the incomparably spectacular and densely packed four rows of iced cola with different flavors, I still felt my blood pressure suddenly rise.

Although she had thought of this scene before opening the refrigerator-after Russell gradually used up the normal food he put in the refrigerator, there must be something to make up for it.

She had expected a plethora of pre-cooked steaks, half-cooked dishes, instant soups, instant fried rice, and the like, with milk and eggs for added nutrition. In this case, if you mix it with some more storable vegetables such as carrots, you can be regarded as more comprehensively prepared.

As a result, she didn't come home for just over a week.

The food in the refrigerator disappeared immediately, and all the gaps were filled with Coke...

...oh, that's not too strict.

There were also two cans of coffee cold brew in the freezer, and a can of powdered chocolate.

Delphinium searched for a long time before finding three steaks from the freezer on the bottom floor of the refrigerator—they were covered by the newly bought ice cream and ice cream. Always put bad.

It's only December!

Why did Russell suddenly buy more than ten catties of ice cream and ice cream?

Delphinium rubbed her belly, stood in front of the refrigerator and hesitated for a while, but still didn't get the iced Coke.

She took out the powdered milk can and made herself a glass of milk with the hot water in the kitchen. After thinking about it again, I added two spoonfuls of cocoa powder to it as a reward for myself.

Although I told Russell before, let him bring food back... But she should eat a meal first to pad her stomach.

It doesn't matter even if it becomes heavier afterward, anyway, she can still eat it if she works hard.

So Delphinium took out two more steaks—the reason why there was one left was because Russell was suddenly hungry sometimes and would have nothing to eat when he went through the refrigerator. If there are a few pieces left, he might think to wait until the next time it is not enough to restock... If there is only the last piece left, he will definitely make up for it after eating.

This perfect hero of Happy Island has saved so many people, punished so many demons, and helped so many people he knows or doesn't know... However, his ability to survive alone is really lacking.

...Of course, maybe it can't be regarded as lacking. After all, although Dunton takeaway is a bit more expensive, it can’t kill people; if you want to buy garbage, you can also buy a housekeeping robot that is a specialty of Sogo Island, and you can hand over clothes to the drones in the laundry, and they will be sent back after washing.

Russell's way of life may also be called "modern life with a more technological sense".

Delphinium doesn't think there's anything wrong with this way of life...

She just felt that it would be less humane.

It's fine if you're really tired from work... But since you still have some spare energy, you still need to make your life more ritualistic.

Even if a person lives on an empty island controlled by the company, he is not a part of the company, let alone a slave to work.

Deliberately waste some time and do some "useless things" seriously.

Playing games is useless, neither is reading idle books;

Keeping pets is of course useless, so is raising flowers and vegetables at UU Reading www.uukanshu.com;

If you want to say what benefits you can get from it, even if you earn money in a hurry, you will only give ridiculous answers. Or fall into the trap given by liars or unscrupulous companies... If you want to find meaning in a meaningless life, you will feel the anxiety of being wasted by "meaninglessness" for a limited time.

But delphinium feels that this nonsense is what makes sense.

Watching the hot oil splatter in the pan, Delphinium places the synthetic mock steak into it. Although the fake meat that can be produced by just pressing a button, like her parts that can be replaced at any time, has never had any indelible meaning...

Just looking at the sunset in winter will give people a cold feeling. But if you lean against the stove, you will feel warm.

Because only in this way can she clearly realize that she is at home.

In the homes of those I love...in my own home.
