Zheng Mango, who has never been very interested in cooking, has a different gaze at this moment.

Getting my ok, she leaned her blade, ready to gather the okra on the cutting board and serve it on a plate. Still leaning on the edge of the side cabinet, half-sitting, I saw her movement, and naturally said: "Be careful." ”

Zheng Xiujing, who was half a meter away, let out a soft sigh and did not pause.

Without waiting for her to take the initiative to ask what to do next, I directly raised my finger and pointed to the quick-frozen shrimp on the other side.

"Take another empty bowl, put that one in, then pour the pepper and cooking wine and a little olive oil and stir well."

Following what I said, Zheng Xiujing lost a lot of emptiness and overwhelm this time, she became a little more proficient, and quietly finished preparing the shrimp.

In this way, the raw materials for the second course okra shrimp are considered to be completely prepared.

Immediately after that, there is the third course, fried rice with tomato salmon.

First, there is the cut of salmon. The salmon pieces I bought were very thick, and they were only cut into pieces rather than slices, although Zheng Xiujing's knife skills were rusty and clumsy, but I still reluctantly cut out the salmon. Mixing in lemon juice and a little salt to marinate the step, Zheng Xiujing also roughly completed it.

The red indicator light of the rice cooker just jumped to green, and the amount of rice for five people was not small, so Zheng Xiujing and I worked together to bring out the rice in the rice cooker. While waiting for it to get cooler+, we prepared the ingredients for the fourth course. The fourth dish that is about to appear as a blockbuster is that Zheng Xiujing has been shouting that she must learn to make - sweet and sour pork ribs!

As a masterpiece of Chinese cuisine, sweet and sour pork ribs have many more ingredients than other dishes. When I bought the pork chops, I had already asked the uncle in the vegetable market to cut them, so I didn't have to test the knife skills of a stupid guy for the time being. But other excipients. It's enough to make the uncoordinated guy tinker for a long time.

Still following my instructions: cooked sesame seeds, ginger. White sugar, balsamic vinegar. sesame oil, star anise, Sichuan pepper, cooking wine, starch............

Zheng Xiujing's forehead once again drenched in extremely fine beads of sweat, and her figure-eight eyebrows wrinkled into interesting arches again. I knew very well in my heart that this girl's patience was already limited, and it should almost be worn out.

From the beginning, I didn't expect much from her persistence. Not to mention the three-minute heat, according to her temperament, the heat of thirty minutes is about the same.

After struggling to sort out all the ingredients to be used for sweet and sour pork ribs, Zheng Xiujing first pursed her lower lip, and then let out a long breath. Standing on the side, I was half-sitting with my arms crossed, looked at her and smiled faintly. Zheng Xiujing heard it, then glanced at me, and suddenly the lost strength ran back. She deliberately opened her throat loudly and asked me what to do next.

I continued to laugh, glancing sideways at the ingredients piled up all over the kitchen board, and raised my hand to wipe the tip of my nose.

"Let's just start cooking, the ribs need to be cooked for a while. You take a pot and cook it on the stove next to it. Then turn on the hot oil in the pan here, ready to fry okra."

The posture of holding her arms has not changed, and Zheng Xiujing, who is less than a meter away from me, is probably trying to show something. The action of the firelight became very aggressive. However, she was seen unscrewing the gas stove. In the end, it only made a small fire, and I also felt a little drunk.

In fact, she is not to blame. Because of the "family" cuisine in Korea, I basically don't know what the word stir-fry is. Whether they are fried or boiled, they generally use a simmer. Although the dish produced in this way can control the heat well, it cannot make the special taste of stir-frying on a fierce fire at all.

Before stir-frying okra, you need to add garlic slices to the oil and stir-fry until fragrant, which requires a relatively high oil temperature. Helplessly, I raised my hand and pointed at the weak flame.

"I said, don't save me on the gas bill, try to make the fire bigger. Also, there are several meanings for giving a little oil in the pot. ”

Unconsciously squeezed Zheng Xiujing again, she was standing quietly waiting for the oil to be hot, first flustered, and then raised her hand and pressed the back of her neck. Pressing the back of her neck, she poured oil into the pan again. In the end, he leaned over and twisted the valve, completely enlarged the fire, and did not say a word from beginning to end. From the side, I couldn't see any of her expressions.

Three to five seconds after the fire, the oil that was already a little warm immediately surged. This time, I didn't need to say anything, Zheng Xiujing had already picked up a little garlic slices by herself and was about to throw them into the oil pot. The action did not show any momentum of fear, and it seemed that he didn't care about the temperature of the oil at all.

Only, a moment later, a piercing, short scream resounded throughout the room. As I watched from the sidelines, I was surprised why this girl was not afraid of the oil that was about to spill, but it was only after this moment that I fully understood. It turned out that this guy's calm face was just because of her, and she didn't know that there would be oil splashes.

In the past, she never used such a big fire to cook, and she never used so much oil. The pan was already more prone to splashing hot oil, and the garlic slices were still stained with so much water. After Zheng Xiujing took off her coat and entered the kitchen, she paradoxically rolled up her sleeves again. So, at this moment, she was burned by the oil, and she was rubbing her arms desperately.

The smell of garlic mixed with screams filled the room instantly, but the latter dissipated instantly, and the former still rushed to his nose. Without any preparation, Zheng Xiujing, who was burned by the oil, jumped on the spot and rubbed her arm. The upper and lower lips looked aside, Hetian's jade-colored teeth grinded left and right, and the small nose was upturned, wrinkled very badly.

Finally, someone's patience is completely worn out. Zheng Xiujing, who stood in place for a while, ignored the oil still burning in the pot, and threw the spatula in her hand aside. She raised her hand and grabbed the root of one side of her hair and smoothed it down hard. I know she's easily bored, as it will be. What surprised me was that even though she felt very annoyed and even had a very bad expression, she still didn't get out of the kitchen. According to the previous script, in addition to work, Zheng Xiujing, who feels annoyed in life, will immediately quit doing it.

Get up from your half-seated position and take a step forward to turn off the fire. The smile on my lips showed no sign of disappearing from beginning to end.

raised his hand and touched Zheng Xiujing's head. The look of boredom on her face was gradually turning into depressed unhappiness. It won't be long before the pouting mouth will be able to hang up the hanging bottle.

"Well, as I told you before, learning to cook Chinese food is not an easy task. If a dish of Chinese dishes is generally stir-fried, it can be done in a few minutes, which is a test of the oil temperature and heat control. So, it's really hard. You don't have to get annoyed, don't do it if you don't want to. ”

While saying these words with a hint of comfort, there was only a fist between the two of us.

I could feel it, and after I said this, Zheng Xiujing suddenly took a deep breath. Immediately afterward, she picked up the spatula again and turned on the fire.

For this reason, I took a step back, looked at her with a little stubbornness and concentration in her eyes, and blinked her eyes very slowly, and the temperature of her smile was far better than the temperature of oil at a certain moment.

――――――――――

Zheng Xiujing, who has lost her irritability and instinct, not only no longer runs away from home, but even in the face of every small challenge, she no longer has the idea of retreating and giving up. She was originally very casual, she did it when she was interested, and she didn't have to ignore it when she felt annoyed. Only in a corner where no outsiders are watching, can she always maintain her own personality.

People change, but the premise of all changes is only because they meet another person. Many people understand this principle, but some people do not want to apply this set of rules to their own heads.

He lowered his sleeves and pulled his apron. Facing the splashed hot oil, Zheng Xiujing's nerves began to become extremely rough with preparation, and when it came to the next few dishes, she was not even so afraid that she didn't even blink her eyes.

Following my instructions bit by bit, Zheng Xiujing first finished cooking the relatively simple okra shrimp. This dish is not too particular about the heat, Zheng Xiujing, who is a little accustomed to the way of adjusting the fire, used medium heat throughout the whole process to stir-fry this okra shrimp.

After finishing a dish that seemed to be good, Zheng Xiujing put the plate to the side of my mouth as if she was invited. Looking at this guy's smug face, I smiled and took a bite of the dish. It's expected to be of a medium level, but I still give a perfect expression. Zheng Xiujing, who was encouraged, seemed to be even more bursting with confidence. She swept away her previous unhappiness, as if the person who had just annoyed her to throw the spatula was not her, and brought the food to the living room like the wind, and then ran back to the kitchen like the wind.

The ribs on the stove next door were still boiling over the fire, and before stir-frying the next dish, I asked Zheng Xiujing to remove the lid and shovel off the foam from the water. Then add some seasonings such as ginger, star anise, peppercorns, cooking wine, etc., and finally cover the pot tightly, turn to medium heat and continue to cook for 20 minutes.

Kim Taeyeon was called by the company in the morning, nothing more than because of the emergency that happened in Tokyo that day.

Although many measures were used to conceal all traces of the accident at that time, it was inevitable that there would always be omissions. And any omission is very likely to cause great harm to the company and herself. For those who know why, it is necessary to discuss with the company how to deal with it. But in my opinion, this is undoubtedly for her to relive the memories of murder in the company. No matter how much the company compensates her and appeases her. I also think that the wound that was being healed should be torn open again. New injuries combined with old wounds, even if they are healed, will leave an unsightly and unsolvable scar.

As I watched someone clear, I sat down on the edge of the kitchen counter with my arms folded again. After sighing, he completely killed the undeserved worries. All I can say is that I hope she can come over and eat hot sweet and sour pork ribs when it's over. (To be continued......) i1292
