Rebirth: Infinite Train

Chapter 160 Guixiang takes over cooking

Seeing that Lin Yaoyao insisted, Guixiang had no choice but to go along with her.

"Then I...then I will call you Miss Yaoyao from now on."

Lin Yaoyao nodded. "What did you call me for?"

Guixiang was a little hesitant when talking about this, "I... This is my first time serving Granny Qi. I thought I would have to do some laundry and cooking, but after I came here, I just drove the donkey cart.

Please give me some advice, Miss Yaoyao. What should I do and how should I do it later?"

When Lin Yaoyao heard this, she realized that it was her negligence.

They were used to eating alone in the donkey cart, and what they gave Guixiang this morning was just ordinary dry food, and they didn't ask her to cook after getting off the cart at noon.

A girl who was born to serve others would inevitably feel a little anxious when she has nothing to do.

Lin Yaoyao glanced at the empty donkey cart of the Zhang father and son next to her and smiled reassuringly at Guixiang.

"Sister Guixiang, don't worry about that. I was a little scared when I first came here, but Granny Qi is easy to get along with and kind, so you can rest assured.

If you want to do something, just wait for Uncle Daniu and the others to come back from hunting, and then help them process the prey.

By the way, can you cook?"

Guixiang nodded. "I often help my mother cook at home, but I can only cook some home-cooked dishes, and I'm afraid they won't suit Grandma Qi's taste..."

Lin Yaoyao's eyes lit up when she heard this, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. You may not know this, but Granny Qi is actually the best at cooking. But she has difficulty moving around now, so she usually doesn't cook much, and it's even more impossible for her to serve us.

So we have been eating dry food for the past two days.

Ask her to teach you later. I am clumsy and even Granny Qi can’t teach me.”

In fact, Lin Dabao could do it, but in order to avoid arousing suspicion, it is better to let Guixiang do it.

After all, Lin Dabao had never been to the kitchen since he was a child. Even if he has become capable now, being able to cook is another matter. It is inevitable that people will wonder if he is possessed by a ghost.

Hearing this, Guixiang looked back a little embarrassedly.

Because Grandma Qi was in the donkey cart behind her, Lin Yaoyao spoke loudly and she didn't know whether Grandma Qi would be angry if she heard this.

Granny Qi did speak, but she said, "Come in quickly. You don't mind the heat. Guixiang, go ask Goudan and the others if they have a map. If they do, bring it over for me to see."

"Hey, I'll go right away!" Guixiang agreed crisply and immediately became full of energy.

Lin Yaoyao climbed onto the donkey cart and consciously went over to refrozen the ice in the ice basin that was almost melted.

"Guixiang will be cooking later, you can teach her. What dishes do you want? I'll take them out in advance."

Granny Qi also had a worried look on her face. "We can't take out the things that are too eye-catching. We'll just take...rice, potatoes, and vermicelli."

Lin Yaoyao was a little worried, "There are no potatoes in this world."

Granny Qi said, "What are you afraid of? I'll peel the skin first. If Guixiang asks, I'll say that a rich family gave it to me when I was doing cooking in another place. I saved the seeds and planted some in my own vegetable garden."

I can’t just not eat any vegetables at all. I don’t dare to take out the green leafy vegetables, so I can only eat potatoes.”

Lin Yaoyao had no choice but to nod. Yes, it was true that Grandma Qi used to often visit some wealthy families.

After all, the richer people are, the more they believe in these things.

So it's not surprising that she has something rare in her hands.

So when Guixiang came back with the things, Grandma Qi was peeling potatoes with a scraper, so she naturally couldn't let her in.

Lin Yaoyao leaned her head out, took the things from Guixiang's hand, and said to Guixiang.

"Sister Guixiang, this is the rice for today's cooking. Granny Qi asked you to cook the rice first and she will teach you how to cook later."

Guixiang's eyes lit up and she hurriedly took the cloth bag of rice from Lin Yaoyao's hand.

"Hey~ I'll start cooking right away. Miss Yaoyao, tell me how much you need to cook."

Lin Yaoyao took out a cooking stove and a small pot from the donkey cart. The stove was an ordinary low-fire stove that Grandma Qi used in her family, and the pot was just a small clay pot.

"Let's cook it according to the size of this pot. There's not much rice. We'll mainly eat the prey that Uncle Da Niu and his friends hunted for lunch."

After moving the stove off the donkey cart, Lin Yaoyao continued, "We'll have to ask Sister Guixiang to help build a fire rack. We may not have enough space on this small stove to cook rice and prepare dishes.

Tell me what you need, and I'll use Granny Qi's treasures to find it for you."

Guixiang responded with a smile on her face, "Okay, Miss Yaoyao, you go and have a rest. I'll build the fire rack and make sure it's set up before Uncle Daniu and the others come back. This pot..."

"Oh...don't worry, I'll get it down for you in a minute. I'll put a bucket of water next to it, and you can just scoop it up with the water."

Guixiang deftly put the stove aside, took out a flint and lit the hay in her hand to start a fire, "Thank you for your hard work, Miss Yaoyao. I will cook the rice first."

Lin Yaoyao shook her head and didn't bother to be polite with Guixiang anymore. She took out the bathtub again and started to fill it with water.

When the water was half filled, Grandma Qi called her in.

"Yaoyao, come in for a moment."

As soon as Lin Yaoyao entered the donkey cart, she saw a basin of scraped potatoes next to Grandma Qi. She was holding a map in her hand, studying it carefully.

Lin Yaoyao stretched her head and looked, but didn't recognize a single word.

After all, Lin Siya is illiterate, so naturally she has no memory of recognizing words.

Granny Qi came over and whispered to her, "You don't know how to read? I don't know many either.

After saying that, he pointed at the picture and said, "I don't quite understand this picture either. It seems that we have to wait for Chuan'er and the others to come back and let him take a look."

Lin Yaoyao nodded in agreement. After all, Lin Dabao was a student, so he should be able to understand... the map...

When Zhang Daniu and his group came back, they were followed by a group of people, all of whom had more or less prey in their hands.

The villagers who returned still had excitement on their faces and spoke in high-pitched voices.

"You don't know how powerful Brother Daniu is. With one arrow, the pheasant's two heads were pierced through."

"Ergou is really good. The wild boar ran so fast, but he managed to catch up with it and stabbed it in the head with one knife."

"Dabao... Yunchuan is the same. The talisman can fly by itself. Once it flies over, everything will stop moving immediately and we can slaughter them."

It's no wonder they were excited, because the people who came back brought back some pheasants and rabbits, as well as a big wild boar.

Blood flowed all over the floor.

If we weren't fleeing famine, it would feel like New Year's Day.

In the end, Yunchuan and his companions took back a large piece of pork belly and a slab of pork ribs, and distributed the rest to everyone.

This meal was prepared by Guixiang, with Grandma Qi cooking, Yunchuan occasionally helping with seasoning, and Zhang Daniu and Zhang Ergou chopping the meat.

The whole camp was filled with the aroma of meat, and the children's mouths were full of oil.

Lin Yaoyao and his companions were quite satisfied with this meal as they did not have to eat secretly on the donkey cart.

Moreover, under the guidance of Grandma Qi, the dishes cooked by Guixiang tasted pretty good.

She made a big stew of pork ribs, potatoes and vermicelli, served with rice. It was so delicious that Lin Yaoyao kept praising it.
