Chapter 181 The most important things in this room are us
"Host, this robot can be set up according to your wishes. It is a household service robot that can help the host handle all household affairs. It serves its employer conscientiously, just like the butler in the big family in modern society where the host used to be."
After hearing what Tongzi said, Ning Xiyue became even more satisfied with the robot in front of her and clapped her hands in praise:
"That's great. I need a robot like this. It can keep my space nice and tidy without me having to do anything."
Ning Xiyue picked up the robot's instruction manual. It was a solar-powered robot. When it ran out of power, she just had to take off its solar cell and put it under the sun for one minute, and it could run for fifty years.
It’s a really good robot that saves energy.
But Ning Xiyue thought that she would not need this powerful charging function.
Because the energy in this solar cell can last for another hundred years.
She believed she couldn't outlive the robot butler in front of her.
The robot's switch is in the middle of its forehead. After reading the instruction manual, Ning Xiyue put the battery in her hand on the back of the robot's head, set the working program, and pressed the switch.
The robots, which were originally a pile of cold metal, seemed to come alive all of a sudden and become living things.
"Hello, Master. I am your housekeeper 001. Please give me your orders."
Although the program has been set up, Ning Xiyue still gave the robot a brief explanation again:
"I'll leave this place to you to take care of from now on. The most important thing is to go to the piglets in the pig house over there. You must feed them on time, clean them up on time, and follow the procedures."
"Please rest assured, Master."
"Go to work."
Ning Xiyue waved her hand to let it leave. She didn't have much to say. It was the first time she used such a high-tech intelligent robot to help her do things. She didn't know what it would turn out like. She would only know after using it.
Tongzi stood up and boasted, "Host, the robots produced by our system all have five-star reviews. They can perfectly serve the host and become the host's best butler."
"I believe you."
Ning Xiyue looked at the robot that was feeding the pigs and felt very happy.
The best housekeeper is the one who never does anything sneaky.
She would never again be tied up by a group of pigs.
Thanks to the robot, Ning Xiyue can cross out the tasks of taking care of the space and piglets in her daily schedule and instead focus on knitting scarves and sweaters.
I finished knitting scarves for the whole family in the study.
Dad’s blue scarf, the mother-daughter army green scarf she and Yunmu have, the eldest brother’s black scarf, and the second brother’s gray scarf (given).
Then Ning Xiyue spent another ten points and bought clothes sizes for everyone in the family from Tongzi and knitted sweaters.
The color of each person's sweater corresponds to the color of their scarf.
Ning Xiyue used a knitting needle to finish the beginnings of five sweaters. She knitted one for a while, then put it down and started knitting another one. She kept knitting until she was tired, then she walked out of the study and left the space.
She had to clean up the kitchen, soak her feet and lie on the warm kang before she could come back to complete today's study tasks.
When I returned to the house with the foot bath bucket, Chen Yetu was already sitting in the house soaking her feet, but she was not idle even while soaking her feet. She was leaning over the table and writing something with a pen.
"Xiyue, you're here just in time. Come and take a look at what I wrote about the things and steps needed to prepare for making ham. We'll follow what I wrote tomorrow. This notebook is for you." Chen Yetu picked up the notebook he was writing on and waved it happily towards Ning Xiyue.
It turned out that he was writing the recipe for making ham. He was so serious. Ning Xiyue was a little touched. Chen Yechu took what she mentioned to heart and did not just do it perfunctorily.
Ning Xiyue put the foot bath bucket in her hand next to the kang, walked to Chen Yechu, took the notebook from her hand and took a look. It was written in great detail, and it was obvious that she was writing it very carefully. Some precautions were specially noted on it with a red ink pen.
Ning Xiyue hugged Chen Yechu and gave her a big hug, expressing her gratitude generously: "Yechu, you are so kind. You worked overtime to write notes for me about making ham, and you even used different colored pens to make notes. It's so thoughtful. Thank you."
Chen Yechu felt a little embarrassed by the compliment and smiled shyly: "Don't thank me, you have helped me a lot. I promised to teach you how to make ham and I will definitely teach you how to make the best ham. Take this notebook, I have already written it, keep it, and we will start making it after breakfast tomorrow."
"OK."
Ning Xiyue put away her notes and sat down to soak her feet.
…
The next day, Chen Yechu brought her pig's hind leg, coarse salt and some of her family's secret seasoning powder to Ning Xiyue's kitchen to teach her how to make ham.
Both of them have meat, so this is easy to deal with. Chen Yechu takes one step, and Ning Xiyue takes another step.
Start by removing the hair and bruises and then slowly trim the thigh meat.
Chen Yetu spoke very slowly and in detail, stopping after each step to see if the meat in Ning Xiyue's hand was ready.
Do it step by step carefully.
The key to the deliciousness of Chen Yechu’s ham lies in her secret seasoning powder.
Chen Yechu also generously told Ning Xiyue the recipe of the secret seasoning powder, and then mixed the secret seasoning powder and coarse salt together. Chen Yechu then began to teach her the most important step of marinating the meat.
As she rubbed the meat, she said, "Our method of pickling is different from other places that salt the meat in batches for dozens of days. It's not that complicated. We can do it today and hang the meat up to air dry in the evening. It's just a little laborious. We need to rub it repeatedly to make sure the salt is rubbed into the meat."
After rubbing her arms for the whole morning, Ning Xi shook her sore arms and agreed with Chen Yechu that it was indeed a tiring job.
The good news is that she can knead the salt and ingredients into the thigh meat faster by using Tai Chi kneading.
The most important thing is that Ning Xiyue thinks that the ham kneaded with Tai Chi will taste better.
After lunch, she and Chen Yetu continued their unfinished work.
Chen Yechu looked around for something useful, muttering the steps: "Now let's find something heavy to press it down, the heavier the better, to squeeze out the remaining blood in the meat. What heavy thing should we find?"
This is easy. There is nothing in this world more useful than her bricks. She turned up the power buff and made sure to squeeze out all the remaining blood in her legs.
"We are the most important two people in this room. Watch me." Ning Xiyue rolled her eyes and answered.
He took out a brick from the cloth bag hanging on the wall, washed it and placed it on the pig's thigh lying in the large wooden basin on the ground. He stood on it and pressed his center of gravity downward.
She raised her eyebrows at Chen Yechu: "How is it? Is it the heaviest?"
"I admire you for your quick thinking."
Chen Yechu ran back to the house excitedly, took her brick and came back to imitate Ning Xiyue's method. Afraid of falling, she moved the basin to the door and held it against the wall.
The person standing on it jumped a few times with excitement.
Tongzi saw this and kindly reminded Ning Xiyue: "Host, you better be careful and don't try to jump like her. Our bricks are different. If you jump down, you will be bruised."
"I don't jump, I just move my feet."
You know your own brick yourself. Her powerful buff just reaches the optimal critical point that the leg muscles can withstand, so you can't just jump casually.
If it jumps, the meat will definitely be rotten.
But the brick's buff also allowed her to quickly squeeze out the blood from her flesh, squeezing it out thoroughly.
So next, Chen Yechu continued to suppress the blood, while Ning Xiyue had already listened to the steps she verbally recounted, and looked at the contents on the notebook before starting the last step of the work alone.
Apply salt again and rub repeatedly.
Chen Yechu was still cleaning the blood from her piece of meat. Seeing Ning Xiyue's quick movements, he couldn't help but say, "Xiyue, why do I feel like your ham will taste better?"
Ning Xiyue accepted it and said, "Haha, I hope I can surpass you."
Tongzi lay on Ning Xiyue's head and watched her busy all day just to eat a bite of the delicious ham in the future. He didn't understand: "Host, you are really working too hard for a bite of delicious ham. It takes a whole day to get such a piece of meat. How much do you have to do?"
Ning Xiyue kept moving her hands. "You don't understand. Food is the first necessity of the people. Look at our team members. Which one of them works hard from dawn to dusk for a bite to eat? No matter what era it is, eating is the most important thing, just like you need energy."
When it comes to the energy controller, the host will understand it. It is also willing to spend time for energy and will spend as much time as it can to absorb pure energy.
Ning Xiyue ignored Tongzi and picked up the meat in her hand and asked Chen Yechu who was already rubbing salt on the meat: "Yechu, come and see if my meat can be hung up to dry."
Chen Yechu washed the salt off his hands, came over and pressed the pork hind leg meat with his hands, then tasted the taste on his fingers with the tip of his tongue and nodded: "Well, just apply a little secret seasoning powder on the outside."
"OK."
And at this moment.
"Xiyue." Liu Yao's voice came from outside: "Xiyue, the captain said there is a call for you, and asked you to go to the brigade as soon as possible to answer the call."
