Chapter 14: Don't be a burden
Even if he was moved by Lan Jiao's actions several times before, and he was slightly immune, but this time, Milai still couldn't help but have tears in his eyes.
During this time with Lan Jiao, he has become dependent on her, he doesn't want to leave Lan Jiao's side, but he doesn't want to be a drag on Lan Jiao.
"Lan Jiao, I'm so glad that you can finally leave the garbage star, although the name of the Second Military Academy of the Alliance is not as loud as the First Military Academy, it is also very good."
Milai said, pretending to smile at Lan Jiao relaxedly, "If I have time in the future, I will definitely go to your academy to see you." ”
Lan Jiao raised her head and looked at Milai, she knew that what Milai said now was simply a comfort to her.
He seems to have made a decision for her, telling her to leave him alone and leave Junk Star on her own.
But the more Milai thought about her like this, the more Lan Jiao was reluctant to leave.
There is only one place to leave the garbage star every year, and Lan Jiao can't take Milai with her.
For now, she's already thinking about letting Millay leave first, and she's a big deal to stay in Junk Star for one more year and leave next year?
"Okay, I won't tell you more, I'm going to go back and think about what parting gift I should give you." After Milai finished speaking, he ran away in a hurry without waiting for Lan Jiao to reply.
God knows if he stays for a second longer, and tears of reluctance will fall.
If Lan Jiao saw him like this, it would be too embarrassing!
…
Early the next morning, Lan Jiao received a package of several natural foods that Captain Kate had ordered on the Alliance Star Network yesterday.
Seeing the ingredients, the irritability in her heart was swept away, and Lan Jiao immediately entered the state of cooking.
has been eating the food cooked by Lan Jiao for a month, and Captain Kate is also familiar with what Lan Jiao makes.
In the case of a limited variety of ingredients, even if Lan Jiao has the ability to change the pattern of cooking, the variety of things made is also very limited.
Kate buys her favorite foods from natural foods at relatively low prices.
Bucknaxing - 300 grams of flour from the Jingu Basin, an apple, a carrot, an onion from the Yadai Mountains in Nanzhenxing, and some simple seasonings sent by Xingchen Group Food Company, a small packet of sea salt, and a small bottle of animal oil.
These things were delivered first, and then there was a batch of ingredients that would arrive in the afternoon.
For the sake of Captain Kate's willingness to give her a chance to leave the garbage star, Lan Jiao finally stopped coping with it this time and cooked a good meal.
THE CARROTS AND ONIONS ARE EVENLY CUT INTO 5X5MM, SQUARES OF THE SAME SIZE, POUR OIL INTO A COLD PAN, HEAT THE OIL TO FIFTY PERCENT, POUR THE DICED VEGETABLES, STIR-FRY EVENLY, LET EACH CARROT AND ONION DICED BE STAINED WITH OIL, AND EVENLY HEATED.
The color of the lilac onion gradually turned white after being heated, and at this time, Lan Jiao sprinkled a small spoonful of salt, turned it over, and poured some water into it.
'Ting~', the hot pot was stirred with cold water mixed with oil and bubbled white, just a few seconds, this little water was heated, and 'Goo~Goo~' rolled on the side of the pot.
When the diced carrots had some softness, Lan Jiao pulled out an iron rod and dialed the burning materials under the iron pot to make the fire bigger.
The pot is filled with high heat to collect the juice, even if there is only oil and salt, and the stir-fried vegetables are just as fragrant and bright in color.
In this way, the dishes made in the simplest way can perfectly retain the original taste of natural food, and bring out the aroma of the ingredients themselves.
As for the flour, Lan Jiao added water and noodles, and soon made handmade noodles out.
Boil the noodles in boiling water, turn off the heat for medium cook, remove the chopsticks, and strain them in cold water.
Lan Jiao likes to eat noodles that have been watered, so that the elasticity of the noodles can be preserved to the greatest extent, and at the same time, after reducing the starch in the soup, the noodles are not easy to stick.
Evenly pour the diced carrots and onions she fried earlier on top of the noodles, and a bowl of handmade noodles is ready.
When Lan Jiao was halfway through the meal, Kane came and waited beside him.
Seeing that the food was ready, Kane immediately picked up the bowl and sent it away.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to say to Lan Jiao, "Keep a bowl for me too!" ”
He was really hungry for the taste of the handmade noodles made by Lan Jiao.
This is the second time Kane has seen Lan Jiao make this kind of food, and the first time Lan Jiao made it, there was still a Milai waiting next to him, so he lost his share.
But today, he found that Milai, who usually couldn't move the thunder and followed Lan Jiao as soon as it was dawn, didn't come until now~!
Lan Jiao glanced at the remaining noodles, shook her head, and sighed softly, this bit of food should be kept for Milai, she remembered that he liked to eat it.
As for herself, the girl still prefers sweets, and the natural food she arrives in the morning has some flour and an apple, which is enough for her to make some apple pie.
On the garbage star, the air is dry and muggy.
The noodles that Lan Jiao put on the makeshift case at the door were quickly half-dried by the temperature.
Milley still didn't show up.
Such an unusual situation made Lan Jiao a little surprised.
Yesterday, when Milley left, he said that he was going to prepare a gift for himself, but today he hid directly and didn't plan to see himself?
Based on Lan Jiao's understanding of Milai during this time, Milai should not be the kind of character who chooses to avoid things.
After eating the apple pie, Lan Jiao put away the things at the door, closed the door of her house, and walked in the direction of Milai's house not far away.
The rooms of the exiled convicts were all in two long rows of houses in this area, and when Lan Jiao and Milai came, the last group of exiled convicts had not yet died, so the rooms they were assigned were very random and not adjacent.
Walking along the house, Lan Jiao soon arrived at the door of the house where Millay lived.
She knocked softly on the door, but there was no movement in the room, as if no one was at home at all.
Lan Jiao frowned slightly, and shouted softly, "Milai, are you there?" ”
There was no reply from the room either.
Something seems to be wrong.
Milley has only one friend on this planet, and he has always been by his side, like a little tail, never leaving.
But today, Lan Jiaodu hasn't seen Milai in the morning!
Could it be that something is wrong?
At this moment, Lan Jiao had a bad premonition in her heart.
The next second, she barely had the patience to wait, 'Boom! Boom! Boom! 'Knocking on the door' boom~' sounded.
"Milley, are you there?!"
I don't know if she's using too much force, 'Bang! With a bang, the door opened.
Lan Jiao looked inside, and there was no one in Milai's house.
Lan Jiao was stunned, and then she noticed something strange in this room.
The quilt on Milley's bed was messy, and it seemed that he hadn't had time to clean it up after waking up.
There was half a glass of water in the water cup on the low cabinet next to the bed, Lan Jiao tested the water temperature, and the water was already cold.
