Chapter 19: A Feast of Love
"I don't know the words on it, Benoit, can you help me translate it first!" Jing Xi wanted to intoxicate Benoit for a while, but she was anxious to find out what was written on the note that Benoit handed her. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Oh! I forgot you don't know French. Benoit smiled wryly, holding up the note, and translated it for Jing Xi.
Paris Costume Contest at the Louvre!
Jing Xi was stunned by Benoit's words, and she was dizzy for a long time.
"That's what my mom told me. Mom said that if you win the award, not only will you have a considerable prize money, but the design may also be adopted by a world-famous clothing company, and there will be many benefits at that time! The more Benoit spoke, the more excited she became, and the more Jing Xi listened, the brighter her eyes became.
In the end, Benoit was infected by his own YY future, and the two excited villains happily held hands, jumped back and forth in circles, and laughed loudly.
Jing Xi is a person who has experienced two lifetimes in the end, and he quickly woke up from the excitement.
She hurriedly ran back to her room, took the design drawings, asked Aunt He for the address of the post office, and went out with Benoit.
When I arrived at the post office, I bought an envelope and stamps for sending credit from abroad, and asked Benoit to adjust the address, and she stuffed it into the design drawings, sealed it with glue, and pasted the stamps.
Jing Xi carried her little heart and carefully handed the letter into the service window.
Seeing the kraft letter thrown into the box next to it by the post office staff, Jing Xi felt that her heart had also been left there.
Jing Xi walked out of the post office door with Benoit in silence, and when she was almost at the door, she took a deep breath and lifted her spirits.
"Benoit, how about I cook you a Chinese dinner today, treat you well?" Jing Xi's voice was crisp and loud.
As soon as Benoit looked up, he saw Jing Xi's shining eyes, the bright sunlight falling into her eyes, refracting a dazzling light, and slowly containing the colorful glazed colors, Benoit felt that it was like he looked at a kaleidoscope.
"Good!" Benoit was bewitched and cheerfully complied.
"Benoit, we'll eat Gu Yu meat, boiled fish, boiled lotus white, artichoke rub, and a West Lake beef soup at noon. Do you still want to eat? Jing Xi moved his fingers and listed the menu in the same way.
Benoit was not as happy as Jing Xi, as soon as he entered the door, his brain was sober, and he couldn't stop regretting that he shouldn't have agreed to let Jing Xi cook.
Originally, Benoit was still lucky, hoping that Jing Xi was just talking, and when he saw Jing Xi enter the kitchen, let Aunt He go to the living room to rest, put on an apron in his own style, and listed the menu, Benoit was about to cry.
"Jing Xi. baby! Benoit raised his bangs and said to Jing Xi affectionately: "Let's not rob Auntie of her job!" If you don't like Auntie's cooking, we can also go to the restaurant! ”
Benoit's hurried words couldn't help but bring out a bit of a heavy nasal sound of French.
"What do you mean? Benoit! Don't you trust my craft! Jing Xi pretended to be angry, crossed his hands on his hips, and made a teapot shape.
"It's not. That's not what I think! Benoit said with a dry smile.
Seeing that Jing Xi's height is not as tall as the board, and there are white and tender hands, at a glance, I know that he is someone who has never entered the kitchen, if Jing Xi is asked to cook......
Benoit imagined that the tender green vegetables and the fragrant fish were put into the pot......
Then he opened it, and there was a pile of black rotten grats......
Don't! Benoit was scared and cried......
"Then you go out and wait! I'll make sure you'll swallow your tongue when you eat it! Jing Xi waved his hand domineeringly for Benoit to withdraw.
"Forget it! We still ......" Benoit was glared at by Jing Xi before he finished speaking, and he was frightened back, and the rest of the words were like dust in the air blown away by the wind.
Benoit grimaced, helplessly coaxed out of the kitchen by Jing Xi.
Jing Xi watched Benoit enter the living room, then turned around and locked the kitchen door.
Quickly swapped the ingredients in the kitchen with the ingredients in the space.
In the eighties, domestic transportation was not as convenient as it is now, vegetables were stored in the cellar, and when they were taken out, they lost some moisture, not so fresh, not to mention the fish, they were all frozen, and after they were done, they were lightly touched with chopsticks, and the fish meat was scattered, and when they were eaten in their mouths, there was no umami at all.
Jing Xi has always regretted that the food in the space cannot be taken out and shared with everyone, and the idea of cooking for Benoit inspired her.
She can use the excuse to cook by herself, and then change out the food in the space and cook it for everyone to eat!
However, Jing Xi, like Benoit, has doubts about her cooking skills.
It's okay! If it's really hard to swallow, you can just use the space kitchen to prepare a meal!
Jing Xi thought of a way out, rolled up her sleeves, and started cooking for the first time in her life with great interest.
Wash vegetables, chop vegetables, kill fish.
Everything is ready, turn on the fire, pour oil into the pot, boil the green onions, ginger and garlic, stir-fry the vegetarian dishes first, then the meat dishes, and cook the soup in another pot.
Out of the pot and put it on the plate, it is alive.
Jing Xi put it in her mouth and tasted it, she nodded beautifully, not bad.
It may be that Jing Xi's five senses in this life are more acute than ordinary people, his hands and feet are sensitive, and he is also handy in cooking, and he can clearly perceive the changes in the food in the pot, and he has a very good grasp of the heat, saltiness and lightness.
Aunt He and Benoit stayed in the living room, their hearts and livers were like countless monkeys scratching, and they couldn't sit down quietly, from time to time from the door of the living room, hooking their heads, staring at the kitchen.
Aunt He was worried that Jing Xi had cut her hand, or hit the bowl, or there was a fire, her ears were pricked up, and she was engrossed in paying attention to the movement in the kitchen, Aunt He's whole body was tense and ready to go, as long as Jing Xi made a little movement in the kitchen, she was ready to rush in.
Benoit was more worried about his stomach, and his mind was restless, and he moved his nose from time to time, and he planned that if he smelled a strange smell in the air and was beaten by Jing Xi, he would also take the door.
Aunt He and Benoit looked at the kitchen like this, and first heard the rhythmic chopping of vegetables with kitchen knives, the stinging sound of the oil pot, and the tempting aroma slowly wafting out of the kitchen and spreading to the entire courtyard.
"It smells so good!" Benoit sniffed vigorously, and his worried eyes became bright, perhaps, he didn't have to worry so much.
With a creak, the kitchen door opened, and Benoit and Aunt He rushed into the courtyard at the same time.
"Benoit! The meal is ready! Come and help serve the food! Jing Xi stretched out his head and greeted Benoit cheerfully.
When Benoit saw Jing Xi's confident appearance, his eyes immediately narrowed into a slit with joy!
