Xiao Yi knows that such a life isn't easy to come by. In this fast-paced, high-pressure apocalyptic world, people often strive for ever-greater material comforts and greater success. However, in this process, they often overlook their deepest longings for simplicity and tranquility. Xiao Yi, however, has been able to find such peace and contentment in his own space, a rare blessing.

He sat there quietly, letting the steam cloud his vision and the raccoon cats play happily beside him. In that moment, he felt as if he were cut off from the world, all the chaos and noise far away. In his heart, there was only this peaceful space, these three adorable raccoon cats, and that simple, true happiness.

As time passed, the sun gradually set in the west, and the sky light that automatically set the time was dyed with a light golden color. Xiao Yi stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the scenery outside the window, his heart filled with emotion. He knew that this quiet afternoon was just a brief fragment in his life, but he cherished the beauty of this ordinary life.

He turned back to the living room and sat in front of the fireplace again, enjoying the warmth and tranquility. He knew that this life might not be perfect, but it was real enough. He was willing to slowly savor every detail and feel every bit of happiness in this life.

As night fell, the civet cats were tired from playing and curled up in the corner to fall asleep. Xiao Yi also put down the book in his hand, ready to end this peaceful day. He lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling, his heart filled with satisfaction and happiness. He knew that this kind of life was what he pursued: simple, peaceful and real.

On this quiet night, Xiao Yi's space was still filled with a warm atmosphere. The firelight from the fireplace flickered in the darkness, as if telling its own story. Xiao Yi lay quietly on the bed, enjoying the tranquility and happiness, looking forward to the arrival of a new day.

In this space, Xiao Yi found his own happiness and satisfaction. He knew that no matter how noisy and chaotic the outside world was, he could find his own peace and happiness in this small space. Although such a life seemed ordinary, it was full of truth and beauty. And Xiao Yi was willing to continue to savor every detail and feel every bit of happiness in such a life.

When the waves of passion gradually recede, the world seems to fall into a brief silence. In this moment of tranquility, people can temporarily escape from the hustle and bustle of the world and feel a rare peace.

At this moment, everything seemed to stand still. The wind stopped blowing, the leaves stopped swaying, and the entire world seemed to have been paused. People's hearts also calmed down, immersed in this rare tranquility.

This kind of peace is not empty; it contains a deep sense of contentment and tranquility. It allows people to reflect on their inner world and examine their desires and pursuits. In this peace, people can more clearly hear their inner voice and feel their own existence and meaning.

However, this peace is short-lived. As passion surges again, people will plunge back into the torrent of life. But it is precisely this moment of tranquility that allows people to find a trace of comfort and strength in the busy life.

After taking a bath, Xiao Yi wanted to make himself a sumptuous meal for the first time in his life to reward his stomach and warm his heart.

The first dish must be my favorite braised pork. Add a big pot of dough and steam some big steamed buns made from the newly harvested wheat flour in the space.

After taking a bath, Xiao Yi felt relaxed all over, as if all his fatigue and stress had been relieved. He stood at the door of the bathroom, feeling the warm and moist air, and an unprecedented urge surged in his heart - he wanted to make himself a sumptuous meal, to reward his stomach and warm his heart at the same time.

This idea surprised Xiao Yi a little, because he was not a good cook. But today, he felt that he could give it a try and challenge his limits. He put on his apron and chef's hat and began to prepare the ingredients.

Delicious braised pork provides the most calories and is the most soothing.

Braised pork, a culinary gem of Chinese cuisine, has won widespread popularity not only for its alluring color and flavor, but also for its rich calorie content, making it a popular choice for many seeking comfort. Whenever life brings stress or fatigue, a bowl of piping hot braised pork, with its unique charm, instantly dispels the gloom.

The first step in making braised pork is to select fresh pork. Remove the frozen pork from the refrigerator and gently rinse it under running water to remove any frost or impurities. Then, place the pork in a pot, add plenty of water, and blanch it.

During the blanching process, you'll clearly see layers of white residue floating on the surface of the water. This is the blood and impurities in the pork, which need to be completely removed by blanching. Patiently skim off these residues with a spoon until the water in the pot becomes clear.

After blanching, remove the pork and rinse thoroughly with clean water. The pork should now be clean and translucent, exuding a light, meaty aroma. Blanching the pork in boiling water removes any excess blood and odor, ensuring a fresh, flavorful finish.

Next, it is cut into evenly sized squares. Each piece represents the result of the careful seasoning in the subsequent cooking process, and also foreshadows the delicious enjoyment that is about to be brought.

Every detail of the preparation is filled with respect and pursuit for delicious food. This bowl of braised pork is not just a dish, but also a kind of emotional sustenance and comfort in life. With its unique charm, it has become a warm place in the hearts of many people.
