Chapter 142: The Little Master of Hearthfire Island
Nou has been getting a little irritable lately.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the relationship between Aske and Medea continues to heat up.
Of course, it's a bit of an exaggeration to say that the relationship is emotional, but in fact, the two are just good friends.
Although Medea has been teasing him in various ways, trying to break through this "friend barrier" and elevate to some kind of ambiguous realm of "more than friends, less than lovers", it is unlikely in the short term.
This does not prevent Nuo from having a certain sense of crisis.
Occasionally, she would be cranky like Peggy, and I came first, why did this happen?
But after all, Nuo is a more realistic girl, and she decided to take the initiative to start by learning cooking skills.
In the wilderness where there are no restaurants, everyone can only solve the problem of three meals a day in the island of hearth. In the past, I used to cook instant noodles and noodles, but since the last Christmas party, I have unconsciously become the head of the group who is responsible for cooking and everyone is responsible for eating.
Everyone was happy to eat, but Asker was quite depressed.
You say that I am a dignified professional player, and I can be regarded as a soldier in this game world, how can I become a family cook in the team?
No, who has the ability to read minds, can naturally see through Asker's thoughts.
In other words, if you can learn at least the cooking skills, you can help him when he cooks, and the chances of contacting the head of the group and improving his goodwill will naturally increase greatly.
Perfect plan.
The kitchen of the Hearthfire Island is located in the side hall of the manor, whether it is a casserole, pan, grill and stove, or air-dried sausages, ham, pheasants, as well as home-grown carrots, potatoes, cabbage, etc., all kinds of kitchen utensils and ingredients are readily available, but only Asker can usually cook.
So Noh plucked the cabbage from the vegetable patch, washed it, and prepared it for the next knife.
According to the recipe, she slice the cabbage into thin strips and throw it into a saucepan before processing the ham.
In the distance, in the clearing, Eleanor was learning the Holy Sword.
She concentrated on raising her long sword, her gaze focused on the sword target opposite, and a white light representing her will flashed from her.
The sword fell, and the white light exploded again, and Eleanor lowered her arm and let out a long breath.
Still won't work.
The most frustrating thing is that she doesn't even know if her failure is due to her lack of strong will, or if it is caused by some other reason.
According to Asker's physiognomy theory, it is possible that she was inherently unsuitable for this transcendent swordsmanship. If that's the case, then no matter how long she tries, it's in vain.
Eleanor shook her head, throwing the thoughts out of her mind.
If there is really a disagreement, the head of the regiment will definitely remind her, and it is impossible to sit back and watch her waste a lot of time practicing this.
Suddenly, she saw a faint white smoke rising from the chimney of the manor in the distance.
On fire?!
The blonde knight had this idea subconsciously, because the island of Hearthfire was as warm as spring all year round, and no one would be idle to play with the fireplace.
So she hurried all the way back to the manor, and saw smoke all over the kitchen, and Nozheng was coughing as she added firewood to the stove below, and the saucepan on the stove was bubbling with a lot of foam.
"You're experimenting in the kitchen?" Eleanor was shocked.
"It's not!" Nou was a little anxious, "I'm cooking." ”
Eleanor lifted the lid and saw a hard ham soaked in the soup among the floating cabbage.
…………
"What is this?"
"The recipe says that the ham in the refrigerator should be thawed first after it is taken out." Nou had calmed down and said.
"To thaw is to put it directly in the pot and boil?"
"Or else?"
"Look at the recipe." Eleanor pointed to the words on it, "Thaw and cut into small slices and add to the pot." If the method of defrosting is to put it directly in the pot and cook it, then there should be no additional step of 'defrosting' in the recipe. ”
Promise:..................
"That's right." She had to admit that Eleanor was right.
"I'll ask Asker." Eleanor said, "He should be on the main plane by now." ”
"Wait." Noor grabbed her arm, "I want to surprise him." ”
"But we don't know how to cook." Eleanor couldn't help laughing, "If it goes on like this, there is a high probability that there will be no surprises, only fright." ”
"Then you can ask someone for help." Noh insisted, "Don't tell him just yet, anyway." ”
The two girls discussed for a while, and decided to go to Sidlifa first.
"Thaw?" Sidlifa was practicing empty-handed combat outside, and when she heard this, she was puzzled, "Isn't this supposed to find Medea?" Her flame ability is much faster than mine. ”
So Noh explained it to her. If the ability of frost is used to absorb the cold, then it is manifested on a physical level that it slowly heats up. If it is heated by the power of the flame, then it will heat up rapidly.
And the "thawing" in the recipe should most likely be heated slowly, otherwise why not just throw it into the pot and cook it?
"Sounds interesting." Sidlifa was interested, "Let's go." ”
When the three girls returned to the kitchen, they saw Mia stepping on the kitchen stool, opening the high cabinet and rummaging for something.
"Mia, what are you doing?" Nou took her down, the little girl was too dangerous to step on the rickety stool.
"I'm looking for melon seeds." Mia said.
"You don't like to eat melon seeds." Noh remembers clearly that recently Mia has a sweet tooth.
"Her Highness Medea, the great and holy master, wants to eat." Mia said.
Trio: ..................
Then everyone remembered that Mia had sold herself to Medea today in order to get the transcendent properties of that Shadow III.
"Why don't Miya cook with me at noon?" Nuo wanted to save her from the sea of suffering, but he didn't expect Mia to get angry instead: "I'm not small! ”
She clenched her little fist to bully Nuo, but Nuo held her head down with one hand, and she couldn't get close to her with her teeth and claws, so she could only gasp for air.
"Sidlifa, thaw the ham." No, holding Mia with one hand, turned his head and said, "Eleanor, help wash the dishes next to you." ”
"What dish?"
"Kale over there."
No, from the ready-to-eat can that he opened next to him, picked up a slice of luncheon meat and stuffed it into Mia's mouth. The latter kept chewing on his cheeks, and said angrily:
"Don't try to bribe me with food!"
Her slurred pronunciation seemed unconvincing, and she reached for the luncheon meat, and was slapped by No.
On the other side, Sidlifa had thawed the ham and began to take out the tomahawk to cut it.
"Don't use the Axe of the North Wind!" Eleanor hurriedly reminded her, "Look...... It's freezing again. ”
"Oh." Sidlifa was also speechless, so she could only thaw it again.
"What about my servant?" Medea poked half of her head out from the outside, "Why haven't you come back for so long?" ”
Mia hurriedly trotted over with the canned food: "Your Highness Medea, the great and holy master, the little one has brought you a more delicious canned luncheon meat." ”
Medea picked up the can and looked at it, then looked at the crowd: "What are you doing...... Cook? ”
Isn't it, Asker isn't here, you don't make poison, do you?
"We're going to learn how to cook." Noe smiled impeccably perfect, "Is Medea going to help?" ”
"Help?" Medea frowned, her instincts telling her that things weren't that simple.
So she stared into No's eyes and read minds.
Noh smiled and looked back at her, his mind shielded, and his mind was reversed.
Medea strengthened her spiritual output, trying to break through the defenses of the mind and body, and counter-reading the mind.
"So what are you doing?" Eleanor waved her hand between the two, interrupting their gaze at each other.
"Okay, I'll help." Medea rolled up her sleeves.
"What about me? Her Royal Highness Medea, the great and holy master? Mia asked, looking up.
"You aren't needed here for a while." Medea said, "Go." ”
So Mia ran out as soon as she slipped through the smoke.
