Chapter 7

The rice has been soaked, and the rice washing water has turned into a light milky white.The fresh vegetables were covered with a layer of water droplets. Xiang Jie grabbed the leaves and shook them, placed them on the chopping board, raised the knife and cut them into several sections.

A mellow aroma came out of the casserole, Xiang Jie grabbed a rag, carefully lifted the lid, took a small spoonful of soup, tasted it, and frowned.He thought about it, sprinkled some salt in, and then nodded in satisfaction, that's right.

There was a mobile phone on a table not far away, and Xiang Jie's every move was captured on the entire screen.One message after another quickly swiped past.Xiang Jie put the lid on the casserole again, turned around, bent down, and read the message.

"Today's soup...it's winter melon and scallop soup, very simple," he pursed his lips and smiled, "I like to add more scallops. If you think it's too salty, don't add too much salt."

"The main course? I bought fish today and steamed it. I prefer to buy it from the market. Freshly killed ones are fresher." Xiang Jie held up his mobile phone and let the camera capture the mandarin fish being steamed. "If it is In spring, the taste may be even better. Isn’t there a poem about it: Peach Blossoms Flowing Water Mandarin Fish Fat.”

"Didi." The small kitchen alarm clock rang, Xiang Jie pressed it off, lifted the lid of the pot covered with water mist, and poked the fish with chopsticks, "Okay." He put the phone aside and turned off the fire , close the lid, and glance at a comment.

"Don't you find it annoying to cook?" Xiang Jie smiled, "I kind of like cooking. Everyone likes different things. Anyway, I'm very happy. Okay, that's all for today's cooking time Alright, there should be a new recipe tomorrow. See you tomorrow—”

Xiang Jie turned off his phone and breathed a sigh of relief.Looking up at the time, he hurriedly dug out the lunch box from the cupboard.Cooking is like a battlefield, and it really doesn't take a moment to delay.

After Xiang Jie packed the meals, he tore off the small pink cloth bag hanging on the wall, and stacked the lunch boxes layer by layer.He admired his masterpiece a little complacently, took out his mobile phone to take two photos, and hurried out.

In less than three seconds, he turned back in a hurry, in such a hurry that he forgot to take off his apron.

Xiang Jie didn't drive He Yaning's idle Nissan.Mainly parking is too troublesome.He Yaning dug out another bicycle of unknown age from the basement, and gave Jie a long leg, which was just right.

He was whistling all the way, riding a small broken bicycle, driving fast.

Xiaozhu had been waiting impatiently for a long time, and waited at the door of the classroom with Xiaoyuan's eyes wide open.Before Xiang Jie could say a word, he snatched the bag.

"Hey, don't worry," Xiang Jie was afraid that she would spill the soup carelessly, so he helped the little girl take out the lunch box, "This is yours, don't leave it, or my brother will get angry."

Xiao Zhu ignored him and smiled at Xiang Jie.

His task is not yet complete.

"Looking for me?" He Yaning was a little surprised.Assistant Jiang blinked mysteriously, making him even more confused.

Xiang Jie came in unsteadily, wearing a dark green jacket with a beige sweater inside, and a pair of black sports trousers that made his legs long and straight.He seemed to have absorbed the winter sun, and his whole body was so warm that He Yaning couldn't keep his eyes open.

"Oh? What's the matter?" He Yaning asked him.

"What's the matter?" Xiang Jie shook the bag in his hand, as if a child had completed some big task, proudly showing the results of his labor to his elders, "I brought you lunch."

Deliver lunch?A question mark slowly appeared above He Yaning's head.Xiang Jie smiled like a bright sunflower, He Yaning coughed lightly, "I don't seem to have asked you to do my part."

"It's a casual thing. I saw a particularly fresh fish today, so I couldn't resist buying it." Xiang Jie pouted, "But the fish is so big, Xiaozhu can't finish it by himself."

He Yaning reached out and rubbed his temples, "So you mean, I just eat leftovers?"

"No, no, no! That's not what I meant!" Xiang Jie shook his head like a rattle, and He Yaning shook the pot, but he couldn't stand it, "Hey, I really didn't mean that!"

It's fun to tease the kids.

He Yaning barely suppressed the smile on the corner of his mouth.Since Xiang Jie cooked and delivered the meal with such painstaking efforts, he couldn't help but appreciate it.

"You can put it here." He Yaning said, "I'll eat it later."

Xiang Jie's eyes lit up.

He Yaning locked the contract in his hand into the safe, and seeing Xiang Jie standing there, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows, "Aren't you going back to eat?"

Only then did Xiang Jie come back to his senses, and smiled at He Yaning with some embarrassment, "Then I'll go back first."

He Yaning looked at the back of Xiang Jie who disappeared in a flash, and touched his chin thoughtfully.

It's been almost a week since I got along with Xiang Jie.Although at the beginning he was a little speechless to this big boy who was disconnected from time to time and was a bit nervous, and even thought of changing someone else, but Xiang Jie had a strong desire to survive. He has done quite well in the work that came down.

Xiaozhu's taste is very picky, he doesn't eat this or that, Xiang Jie can actually be patient and change his way of doing it, which makes He Yaning look at him with admiration.

The lunch sent to Jie is still on the tea table.He Yaning looked up at the time, and it was almost time for lunch.He usually goes to the restaurant downstairs to solve it, or he orders takeaway with his colleagues. The price is a little expensive, but it's not bad.

As for whether it is healthy or not... there is no need to pursue it.

He got up, picked up the lunch box, and was slightly stunned.

...It's quite fragrant.

He Yaning had experienced Xiang Jie's cooking skills.In fact, it can't be said to be amazing, it's just homely.The dishes they cook are also common ones. After all, three meals a day are eaten with that kind of fireworks.

White fish, green broccoli, yellow sliced ​​radish, red cherry tomatoes.The steamed soft rice is also sprinkled with a little fried sesame.

He sighed, bent over and sat down, and took out the chopsticks from the cloth bag.And a small bowl of hot soup.It's not hot anymore, it feels warm in the palm of your hand.

He Yaning raised the corners of his lips and smiled.

"Boss, your—" Jiang Chen knocked on the door symbolically, and pushed the door open with a bluff. He Yaning was drinking soup with his head down, and raised his head slightly, looking at Assistant Jiang.

"...Your takeaway..." Jiang Chen swallowed the following words with a "gudong" along his saliva.

"Since when did you learn to eat alone!" the little assistant let out a scream.

"Try it?" He Yaning raised an eyebrow at her, "It tastes pretty good."

"No, no, thank you..." Jiang Chen wanted to get oil on his feet, and when he was about to escape, he remembered his main task, and carefully asked the leader, "Then what about your takeaway?"

"You guys share it." He Yaning thought for a while, "Or feed the stray cats downstairs. Don't you collect fish heads every day?"

Assistant Jiang rolled his eyes, it's nice to have money.

Handsome and rich, even better.

Handsome and rich, He Yaning finished a rare lunch that did not exceed the salt limit, poured himself a glass of water, and took out a small transparent medicine box from his trouser pocket.

With a wrong long finger, the medicine box opened with a "snap".He flipped his wrist, and shook out two or three small red and green pills from inside.

He Yaning's eyes were blurred, and he stared at the pill in his hand in a dazed way, remembering the fairy tale he told Xiao Zhu, the colorful stars fell into the world.

But the real stars are just dusty broken stones, how can they be colorful.

He Yaning smiled bitterly.

The restarted kettle gradually became noisy, and he flicked it lightly, and the water that hadn't boiled became calm again.He Yaning poured himself another glass of warm water, thought for a while, brought his palm to his lips, raised his head, dipped into the water, and swallowed all the pills.
