Future Shennong Space

Probably because the things he said before going to bed were too disturbing, Ji Mingxiao didn't sleep well on his first night in Capital Star.

First it was insomnia, and finally fell asleep and started dreaming again.I can't remember what the content was, but the whole dream was shrouded in an atmosphere of uneasiness and fear, and I was woken up several times before falling into a deep sleep.

When I woke up, it was already bright, and the chirping of birds could be clearly heard from the trees outside the window.He was stunned for a while, then sat up from the bed.

His head was still a little dizzy, he looked at the terminal, it was already very late.

He hurriedly went to the bathroom to take a shower, changed his clothes, and hurried downstairs again.

Xiao was the only one in the living room. He was in contact with someone, and when he saw Ji Mingxiao, he gestured to him to ask him to wait.

He quickly ended the call and turned off his personal terminal.

"Sorry," Ji Mingxiao said embarrassedly, "I got up late."

Xiao smiled at him, "It's okay, it's not too late. Breakfast is in the restaurant, go and have a taste."

There is juice for breakfast, as well as fried bacon, sausage and fried toast.

Xiao accompanied him to have breakfast, but he couldn't help but said to Ji Mingxiao while eating, "I want to eat the shrimp dumplings you made, and I also want to eat small wontons. I haven't had them for a long time."

"Who made this breakfast?" Ji Mingxiao took a bite of the fried bacon. It was cooked just right and tasted pretty good.

"Housework robot." Xiao took a sip of coffee and frowned slightly, "The housekeeper used to be very skilled, but he has retired. My mother doesn't like more unfamiliar people in the family, and now it's all housekeeping robots. "

"The taste is actually not bad." Ji Mingxiao took a sip of the juice, which should be freshly squeezed, and the taste is also very good.

"As long as you enter the recipe, you can make anything." Xiao said, "But the taste is always the same, and after eating for a long time, I always feel that no matter what the dish has a metallic taste."

Ji Mingxiao was amused by him, "Where are Mr. and Mrs. Sterling?"

"Mr. Sterling has gone to work." Xiao put down the glass, "Mrs. Sterling received an invitation from her best friend and went out very early—why is she called that?"

"I originally wanted to call them uncle and aunt, but they looked very young and couldn't say it."

"It doesn't matter," Xiao raised the corners of his mouth, "You can call him whatever you want, but if you call your parents directly, they will be happier."

Ji Mingxiao gave a dry laugh, lowered his head and spread the jam on the toast.

"What shall we do later?" he asked.

"How about looking around in Capital Star?" Xiao said, "We can buy some fresh ingredients when we come back, and then make shrimp dumplings."

Ji Mingxiao is slightly embarrassing, you really miss shrimp dumplings...

When the two of them finished their breakfast and were about to leave, Mrs. Sterling suddenly came back.

Xiao was a little strange, "Isn't it usually all day, come back so early today?"

Mrs. Sterling made some arrangements for the robot butler before she had time to answer: "We have a party in the afternoon, I forgot something, and I came here to get it."

Look at Ji Mingxiao, who is already fully dressed, with a charming smile on her face.

"Thank you, dear Xiao." She said, "I like the perfume you sent me very much, but today it made me shine."

The butler had already come out of the next room and handed a box to Mrs. Sterling. Ji Mingxiao found that the box happened to be the wine he had given to Mrs. Sterling.

When brewing these wines, he referred to many ancient recipes and used different flowers to brew different wines, and then buried them under the peach trees in the space for more than half a year before taking them out.When the jar is opened, the aroma of flowers and wine is refreshing, and the taste alone makes people feel slightly drunk. It is also delicate, soft, sweet and sweet to drink. The elegant floral aroma extends from the mouth to the throat to the stomach.The alcohol content of this flower brew is not high, which is very suitable for ladies to drink.

He also specially ordered beautiful and exquisite small wine bottles and gift boxes from StarInternet. The transparent bottles are engraved with three-dimensional flowers, which correspond to different flower wines.

Noticing Ji Mingxiao's gaze, Mrs. Sterling smiled.

"I couldn't resist opening one of them yesterday and tasted it," she said. "The taste is so fascinating. I must say, Xiaoxiao, you are really amazing."

She stepped forward to give Ji Mingxiao a gentle hug, and at the same time kissed him intimately on the face.

"Let Xiao take you out to play for a day today," she said, "you have to get along well."

The nose smelled a fragrance similar to peony and gardenia. The elegant and refreshing smell made him blush slightly... This smell is really charming.

He was still a little dazed until Mrs. Sterling left, and it was not until Xiao Qing coughed that he woke him up.

"Let's go, if you don't go, you'll even have lunch at home."

Xiao put on his glasses and strode out of the room. Ji Mingxiao was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly followed.

"What's the matter?" Ji Mingxiao asked, Xiao's attitude seemed to be angry with someone.

Xiao ignored him until the hover car stopped beside the two of them, then he sighed and his attitude returned to normal.

"Your neckline is not done properly." Xiao said, then reached out to help him straighten his collar, and let him sit in.

Xiao specially adjusted the driving height of the suspension car to the highest level, and the speed can also be slowed down, so that he can clearly see the scenery on the ground.

As the political and cultural center of the entire Galactic Federation, the capital star has preserved its environment, history and culture very well.Along the way, you can see many ancient buildings with different styles from the present.

There was not much time left in the morning, and Xiao took him to the most famous open-air market in Capital Star.This market has a history of hundreds of years and still maintains many traditional habits.Many artists set up stalls here to sell their works, ranging from street sketches to colorful oil paintings, from exquisite glassware to eccentric tableware, as well as exquisite jewelry and handmade soaps.At the same time, it is also a gathering place for many planetary specialties, and you can see many weird gadgets.

Ji Mingxiao also saw the fantasy flower that Xiao had given him before, and it seemed that its flowering period was not far away.

Thinking of something, the two couldn't help but look at each other.Xiao took the initiative to buy the flowers, after which Ji Mingxiao kept holding the flowers in his hands with a smile on his face.

At noon, the two had lunch directly at a nearby restaurant. The restaurant has a long history, and it is filled with decorations and oil paintings from a century or two ago.They ate the recommended dishes of the day, smoked salmon, green salad and chestnut puree with herbs, which tasted pretty good.I heard that the menu here is changed almost every day, and even the menu is a simple handwritten paper menu, which seems to be a tradition in the store.

After lunch, the two sat on chairs near the square and rested for a while. Under the large shade of trees, circular light spots flickered, giving people a very leisurely feeling.There are many pigeons here, and there are many tourists feeding the pigeons.Ji Mingxiao also bought a bag of pigeon food, and fed the pigeons for a while with great interest. When he finally left, Xiao poured all the remaining pigeon food in the bag on the ground, attracting a large group of pigeons to swarm up.

In the afternoon Xiao took him to the art center to listen to an opera. Although he didn't understand much, Ji Mingxiao was still shocked by the current scene design, because it was too dazzling.The whole venue is surrounded by the sea of ​​stars, and the audience feels as if they are directly in the middle of the universe. The melodious and ethereal singing seems to come from outside the sky, just like the singing of angels.

It was already very late when they finally came out of the art center, and the two went to the supermarket again to buy a lot of ingredients.

Xiao didn't intend to be polite at all, and threw all the things he wanted into the car. He didn't know what raw materials were used for some of the food he had eaten, so he asked Ji Mingxiao specifically, and then he also found them and threw them into the car inside.

As for the vegetables, Ji Mingxiao only picked some varieties that were not available in the space, this time he didn't have to buy them back and secretly replaced them.

Probably because I watched the opera and stayed in the supermarket for too long. When I got home, it was already past dinner time. Mr. Sterling and Mrs. Sterling hadn’t come back yet, but Mr. Sterling left a message saying that he would come back later after a meeting. .

There were only two of them, and Ji Mingxiao didn't want to bother, so he told Xiao that the big meal would be cooked tomorrow, and that he would simply deal with it at night.

Xiao didn't object, because even simple things can be made delicious by Ji Mingxiao.

After tidying up the bought things, Ji Mingxiao picked out some materials to be used.

Boneless and skinless chicken legs, cut into small pieces, marinate with salt, cooking wine and marinade for a while, take advantage of this time to dice mushrooms, bell peppers and onions.Heat a pan and add olive oil, first fry the onion and mushroom, then fry the chicken until it turns white, then pour the washed rice into it and fry until fragrant.Add salt and white pepper, add water and simmer until cooked.Add the bell pepper before serving, add the sauce and mix well, and the delicious and hot chicken and mushroom stewed rice is completed in no time.

This kind of stewed rice is a simple home-cooked meal. It even has vegetables and rice, and it is very quick to make.From the beginning to the end of the dish, it took a little more than half an hour in total.

In fact, it is better to use broth instead of water, but the taste of the chicken, mushrooms and sauce itself is already very good. The rice is also made of green rice grown in the space, and the rice aroma is rich and attractive.Coupled with various colored peppers, the color is also very beautiful.

Xiao showed a contented expression as he scooped the first bite of rice into his mouth with a spoon.

"I feel that now is the real meal." He said to Ji Mingxiao.

Ji Mingxiao was amused by his slightly exaggerated performance, but he also showed a satisfied expression after he took a bite, the taste was really good.I have tasted the taste of rice again in the past few days, and I really feel like I have officially eaten rice.

While the rice was simmering, he also made lemonade, which won't make you feel tired at all when you eat it with it.

When the two were halfway through their meal, Mrs. Sterling finally came back.

She originally planned to go upstairs to change clothes, but she was directly attracted to the restaurant by an alluring smell of rice.

"What are you eating?" she asked.

"Chicken and mushroom rice." Ji Mingxiao replied, "Do you want to try it?"

Knowing Xiao's appetite, he purposely cooked some more, and adding a lady should be enough.

Mrs. Sterling obviously hesitated for a moment, but she still nodded in agreement, lured by the aroma that filled the room.

"Thank you, give me some, I'll come right after I change my clothes."

As a result, after last night, Mrs. Sterling accidentally forgot her weight loss again...
