Before he could ask the second half of the sentence, there was the sound of footsteps. Shen Tianci’s little head stuck out from the door frame. “What’s stewing in your pot?” He swallowed. “It smells so good.”
Xiaoxiao had just put the fish head and fish bones into the pot. After stir-frying them, she added boiling water and some salt, and the fragrance became even stronger. She turned around and told Shen Tianci, “Spicy boiled fish. It’s peppery. Can you get used to it?”
Shen Tianci nodded repeatedly. He had a strong taste. The more spicy it was, the more he liked it.
Under the cooking of the fire, the broth made from the fish bones and fish head quickly boiled. Xiaoxiao placed the marinated fish wrapped in starch into the soup one by one. The fish filets cooked very quickly. Before they were out of the pot, she sprinkled some of her special seasoning powder. On the bottom of the big bowl used to hold the spicy boiled fish, there were blanched bean sprouts. After pouring the soup and fish in, she sprinkled chili and garlic. Then, she drizzled a spoonful of hot oil on them. Smoke with a strong fragrance floated up and immediately whetted her appetite.
Xiaoxiao was very satisfied with her masterpiece. After giving herself a thumbs up, she turned around and saw a pair of round eyes filled with desire.
Shen Tianci looked at the thick white fish soup and then at the fair and tender fish meat. He felt that his saliva was already secreting uncontrollably. He looked at Xiaoxiao eagerly. “I’m hungry!” He was so self-righteous.
This little master, who used to care about his face, no longer cared for his image in the Ning Family. He was especially loyal to his heart when it was time to eat. Xiaoxiao looked at him lovingly and specially scooped a small bowl for him.
Children generally liked this privilege of “I’m the only one who has it”. Shen Tianci’s face, which was fleshy, was filled with pride. He was satisfied with the food.
A foodie like him was a diner that every chef dreamed of. Seeing that he was eating happily, Xiaoxiao cooked more efficiently. Shen Tianci, who was holding a bowl, moved his butt closer. “Ahem, um, do you have any plans for the third day of next month?”
Xiaoxiao turned around. “I should be free.” Other than going to watch the dragon boat competition on the fifth day of next month and watching the liveliness of the Ruyi Clothing Shop and Fragrance Restaurant, she had not arranged anything else.
Shen Tianci turned his head and stared at the kitchen wall. He blushed and said shyly, “Then do you want to go out with me on the third day next month?”
Xiaoxiao paused in her actions and turned to look at him in confusion.
Shen Tianci happened to peek at her reaction. His flustered gaze was caught. “Y-y-you don’t think too much. It’s my birthday. 1 asked some friends to admire the flowers. I thought that you should be my friend too…”
Xiaoxiao was stunned. “Friends?”
Shen Tianci almost exploded. “Don’t you think so?” Although his tone was fierce, Xiaoxiao felt that if she said no, this kid might cry.
Ah, she wanted to see it.
However, after blinking, she still brought him another fried chicken wing. “Of course. Where are we going?”
Shen Tianci gave her the address and happily stuffed the chicken wings into his mouth. He turned around and ran. He only jumped up halfway. “Delicious!” What a simple foodie.
Xiaoxiao sighed and nimbly put a small bowl into her space from an angle that Big Brother could not see. [Ding, “spicy boiled fish” has been successfully recorded for the first time. You have received 200 points. Current balance is 950.] In the blink of an eye, the clean bowl was placed on the stove again.
In addition to the harvest from cooking recently, the total points in the space were close to 1,000. After Xiaoxiao praised herself for having a promising future, she exchanged some rice seeds. Anyway, the space farmland was idle, and it could grow on its own after planting the seeds. It was simply too convenient when it could harvest itself when it was ripe.
[Ding! Rice seed exchange was successful. Current balance: 450..]
