Chapter 156 Treating Guests [2nd Update]

When Ruan Xi and He Ziqian returned home, there were still three hours before the agreed dinner time, which was enough time for Ruan Xi to prepare.

Use a large pot of bone soup as the hot pot soup base. First, simmer it on low heat and then leave it alone for the time being.

Then comes the processing of various side dishes. Now, He Ziqian has become a relatively skilled vegetable washer and can barely cooperate with Ruan Xi. Looking at her boyfriend's knife skills when cutting vegetables, He Ziqian can only swallow her saliva silently.

If this knife skill could be used in combat, even the dead body could be carved into flowers, which would be terrifying.

Sure enough, his little miracle doctor is the most powerful one!

In her previous life, Ruan Xi's grandmother had a naturally bad stomach and could not eat spicy food, but she had a special liking for hot pot. Ruan Xi had no choice but to find different ways to make nutritious and stomach-nourishing clear soup as the hot pot soup base, and then pair it with various ingredients that can be eaten as dipping sauce, and then he even came up with a recipe for a Chinese medicine dipping sauce. Although it cannot be eaten freely, it makes his grandmother feel satisfied every time she eats hot pot.

It is precisely because of the experience of real money in his previous life that Ruan Xi has excellent cooking skills, especially hot pot, which he himself loves to eat, and he is even better at it.

When eating hot pot, vegetables, mushrooms, meatballs, and meat rolls are all necessary. Ruan Xi is also patient. She makes the meatballs and cuts the meat rolls by herself. She puts the large pieces of meat in the freezer for quick freezing. After a while of slicing, plates of crystal clear and almost transparent meat rolls of various colors are made into beautiful displays under Ruan Xi's skillful hands. They look like works of art no matter how you look at them. He Ziqian is even worried that he will not be able to eat them.

Of course, in the end, it turned out that such worries were completely unnecessary.

Cutting meat rolls was only heart-stirring, but making meatballs by hand was soul-stirring. He Ziqian was stunned as he watched, his mind full of the self-perception of "I am so ignorant".

Damn, the original raw materials can be mixed like this, and after mixing, it didn’t become a disgusting nutritious paste, but instead became delicious meatballs. It feels like he and Ruan Xi are not from the same world at all.

I suddenly feel a special admiration for my own little miracle doctor! Adding the title of little miracle chef to it, he is absolutely worthy of it!

"Come, try this fish ball and see if it's delicious." After cooking a bowl of various meatballs, Ruan Xi put the first one to He Ziqian's mouth. He didn't hesitate at all and took a bite. He was immediately conquered by the chewy texture and rich aroma.

"Delicious! This is so delicious! Ruan Xi, let's keep some in the refrigerator and eat it slowly!" He Ziqian even wanted to steal all the meatballs and not let the big eaters in the team see them.

Ruan Xi: "...Captain, don't be so stingy. If you want to eat, I can make it for you anytime. Even with these, I'm worried that it won't be enough for them." I always feel that Mao Haoyang can make half of it by himself. Otherwise, we should make a bigger batch. We agreed to treat everyone, so we can't let them not enjoy the food.

So, Ruan Xi was busy making the second batch of meatballs. This time, there were two large pots, so there was no need to worry about not having enough to eat. Besides, there were other dishes as well. Could these guys just focus on the meatballs and eat until they were full?

In fact, these guys are really capable! Not only the people in the Goshawk Team are like this, but also Mao Haoyang and Liang Hong, two idiots, are no less capable. Their stomachs can hold a lot of food. After making two large meatballs, they are still only shouting "half full".

Ruan Xi: “…” Damn, just looking at the way these guys eat, he feels like he’s full without even having to eat.

So good at eating!

Fortunately, these guys are all supported by the base, otherwise, his He Ziqian might be eaten bankrupt by his own teammates!

No one could see through the young doctor's mental journey, and they just buried their heads in the food, fearing that if they were distracted for a moment, they would eat less meat or drink less soup, which would be a huge loss.

By the end of the meal, not to mention leftovers, even the soup pot was wiped clean with the steamed buns, and there was not a single speck of oil. Everyone looked like they were so full that they lay down and couldn't move.

"You guys are really... working hard." What Ruan Xi admired the most was that these people had eaten so much but their stomachs had not burst yet. They all looked like they were ready to have more as long as you provided more.

Ruan Xi didn't dare to do that. He even cooked a pot of bland digestive soup after the meal and gave everyone a bowl before he felt at ease to see them off.

Otherwise, their house really couldn't accommodate so many people staying overnight at the same time.

As for Mao Haoyang and Liang Hong, Ruan Xi didn't need to worry at all, as Han Qing would personally send them back to school.

"Brother Han, thank you for your help."

"What's the trouble? Just call me next time you want to eat hotpot." Usually, everyone is busy with training and tasks, and they eat the big pot meals in the cafeteria. They are also in a hurry like fighting a war, so they never have the opportunity to enjoy a meal like this.

Today's hotpot was an eye-opener for everyone. From then on, everyone started to think about the cooking skills of their little doctor. Before even leaving the house, they started thinking about what to eat next.

"Ruan Xi, let's go back. See you at school tomorrow." Mao Haoyang was very happy with his meal today. His eyes were smiling into slits, and he looked particularly energetic even when waving goodbye. As for his irritable mood, it had been basically cured by Ruan Xi.

If conditions allowed, he would have brought Ruan Xi home this winter vacation. Many people in his family have genetic diseases!

However, although the patient was not abducted, Ruan Xi prescribed some medicine for him to take home and asked his family to try the medicine first. When there was a chance, they could have a face-to-face consultation or acupuncture treatment. Ruan Xi has always been very patient with his patients.

"Yeah, school starts tomorrow. Don't be absent on the first day. At least make a good start!" Liang Hong also teased. Ruan Xi missed so many classes last semester that it was almost impossible to count them. Even so, she still got full marks and ranked first in the whole school!

Some people are born to be admired, such as Ruan Xi.

"Okay, I promise to go. You guys go back and rest." Ruan Xi smiled helplessly and waved goodbye to his friends. He didn't sigh softly until everyone left, but there was still a happy smile on his lips.

"Happy?"

"Yeah, I'm happy."

In his previous life, he had never had any real friends. In the end, he was forced to self-destruct and die by his so-called "companions". In this life, the original owner also had no friends, but when he came and He Ziqian appeared, everything became different.

"I hope nothing unexpected happens tomorrow, so I can at least finish the first week of classes in peace."

But wishes are beautiful, but reality is often very bleak. For Ruan Xi, attending classes peacefully for a week is simply a luxury. In less than three days, the base assigned an urgent task to the Goshawk Team.

Well, at least he wasn't asked to organize the opening ceremony of the new semester.

"What mission is so urgent?" Ruan Xi rushed to the meeting room of the central base. There were only the entire Goshawk team inside, and no senior leaders. The meeting had obviously not started yet, so he leaned in front of He Ziqian and asked softly.

"I don't know either. We have to wait for General Tian to come."

Oh, could it be a confidential mission?

However, General Tian seemed to be delayed by something. The members of the Goshawk Squad waited in the conference room for half an hour, but he did not show up. Instead, Ruan Xi received a communication request.

Ruan Xi opened the projection screen of his personal terminal and was quite surprised to see that it was Mr. He Zhiming.

He Ziqian was standing next to Ruan Xi, so he naturally saw who was requesting communication, and he couldn't help but frowned slightly.

"When we enter the conference room, all signals will be blocked except for the special communication channels approved by the military. Mr. He uses the special channel." Is there something urgent?

He Ziqian nodded to Ruan Xi, and the two of them walked to the corner and answered Mr. He's call. The others took the initiative to move to the other corner of the conference room and consciously did not show off their excellent hearing.

"Grandpa He, do you have something to talk to me about?" At this time, Mr. An had already returned to Hemeilan Star. In the past three months, Mr. An would not go out again. Mr. He's call was probably not for an old friend, but to find Ruan Xi specifically.

He Ziqian also had some inexplicable feelings in his heart, just like Ruan Xi at the beginning, he couldn't explain it clearly, he just felt a little blocked in his heart, but when he thought about it carefully, he didn't think it was a big deal.

"I heard that there was an accident at your base, and Grandpa wanted to remind you to be careful when you go out. Grandpa especially admires young people like you and Ziqian, and doesn't want anything to happen to either of you."

These words sounded like ordinary advice from an elder to Wan Fei, and even had a hint of earnest expectation. The two had heard Mr. He say similar things to them before, but for some reason, they felt that Mr. He's mood today was a little off.

"Grandpa He, are you feeling well? You don't look well." Although he could only see the image on the projected screen through the Internet, Mr. He's complexion did not look well. He looked a little pale, which made him look not as energetic as when Mr. An was by his side a few days ago.

Ruan Xi and He Ziqian couldn't help but think about Mr. He's health problems, but before they could ask more questions, Mr. He had something urgent to do and hung up the phone in a hurry.

"I always feel that something is not right with Mr. He. Could something have happened? Was he attacked again?" The situation on Sirius is obviously more chaotic than that on the Imperial Capital. The He family always encounters assassination attempts several times a year. The last time He Jun almost lost his life was the most serious incident in more than ten years, and it also made Mr. He panic.

"If there really was an attack, Mr. He should not have concealed it. At least, it is not as serious as last time." But the region is different. As the highest governor of the Sirius system, Mr. He has too many things to consider, and his words and deeds will inevitably have to be done.

Both of them were a little worried about the situation on Mr. He's side, but reality did not allow them to deviate from the situation. General Tian hurried over and went straight to the point to talk about the mission.

"Border reconnaissance? Mr. Tian, ​​could it be that the aliens are causing trouble again?"
