Chapter 36: Bacon Rice



Soak your whole body in water.

He relaxed his breathing, gave up struggling, and floated up and down in the water, following the ripples of the water.

At this moment, Su Xiaoqi seemed to be dead and her soul had left her body.

She suddenly opened her eyes.

There are also interfaces in water.

Numbers don't bend with the ripples of water.

She stood up and found that the coach had come over.

"Are you practicing breath holding? Beginners should pay attention to safety and don't hold your breath for too long, as it can easily cause cramps." said the coach.

"I understand. Thank you, coach." Su Xiaoqi wiped the water off her face.

The next step is to continue practicing basic movements with the coach.

After practicing kicking and paddling for half an hour, the coach asked us to take a break.

Xiaoqi sat by the swimming pool, panting, watching the coach walk over and talk to other coaches. She thought blankly that when she was practicing swimming just now, she didn't smell any strange smell.

I feel that if the system rewards are not used properly, it will be a headache.

Just like this sense of smell, even a normal smell now feels pungent and unpleasant. She must learn to control this feeling, otherwise she will always be in the vomiting stage... and people will mistakenly think she is pregnant.

The coach over there walked over and chatted with a coach she was familiar with.

"I've met a very talented young swimmer. It would be great if he would join our swimming team."

"You think they're all good, why don't you take a look later?"

"It's a pity that he's said to be a student from No. 1 Middle School and has already been admitted to university. He definitely doesn't want to stay."

Xiao Qi rested for a while and saw the coach bringing another coach over.

"You've almost learned the basics. Now we can officially start swimming. Stay beside me and pay attention to the coordination of my movements and breathing."

Exercise fatigues the muscles but relaxes the mind.

Xiaoqi, who had been reading for the whole morning, really needed this.

Focus on learning from the coach.

Because of her swimming talent, she learned very quickly. In addition, she was also very serious and active. After swimming a lap with the coach, she was already swimming very well. Her movements were standard and graceful, and it was not too difficult.

Xiaoqi found that when he got the movements right, swimming felt even faster than walking.

She swam five laps and saw that her coach was already sitting by the pool, talking to the coach next to him.

Seeing me swimming towards him, the coach gave me a big smile.

Xiaoqi also sat by the pool and took the water and towel handed to him by the coach.

Today's teaching time has actually exceeded the limit by a lot, almost three hours.

Only after coming out of the water did Xiaoqi feel very tired.

She went to take a shower, and after that she felt extremely tired physically, but her spirit was still good and her mind was clear. She felt that she should be able to memorize the lessons well at this time, but she felt a little weak.

When she came out, the coach was actually at the door, as if he was waiting for her.

The coach slipped a flyer into Xiao Qi's pocket and said, "Take a look at this. There's a swimming competition in our province on the 20th of this month. The first place prize is 15,000 yuan, the second place 8,000 yuan, and the third place 5,000 yuan. I heard from your aunt yesterday that you were admitted to Enhua University. I think you have great potential in swimming. I'll give you special training during this period. You still have a lot of hope. Do you want to participate? If you do, you can become a member of our swimming team. Please consider it."

Xiaoqi looked at the coach's back, still a little confused.

She had never thought about participating in any swimming competition, but the money involved was very attractive to her because she could tell her parents openly and the timing was also suitable. The only problem was that according to the coach, it would be quite hard and she would have to join the swimming team.

She carefully read the requirements for becoming a member of the swimming team. It seemed that there were no special hard requirements. She just hoped that she would actively participate in any competitions or activities.

There will be an assessment once a year, and if you are not suitable, you can quit.

Xiaoqi thought it was okay, so he sent a WeChat message to his coach on the way, agreeing to participate in the competition, but he also had a tutoring job, so he had to make time for training.

On the way back, she was really hungry and exhausted. She couldn't wait for her aunt to cook. She had just learned some cooking skills today, and it was still at the entry level, so she decided to try it herself.

When she returned to her aunt's dormitory, she took a look and saw onions, carrots, beans, mushrooms, tomatoes, and bacon. These were all long-lasting vegetables that she had brought from home. She planned to make a simple bacon rice and then a tomato and egg soup.

Afternoon.

There is a small courtyard on the basement floor of the hospital, with a row of cement washbasins and a big tree next to them.

The sun is shining.

There is a huge wooden block under the big tree. This is where people usually cut vegetables. In fact, ordinary people don’t come here. The place is very big. Lin Min’s mother’s snack cart is placed here. She mainly makes breakfast, so she rests during the day.

Lin Qingqing was leaning on a recliner under a big tree, using her new headphones. Apparently, after a few days of trying, she finally succeeded.

The yellow AKG is very beautiful. It sways when she wears it on her head.

Seeing Xiaoqi coming to cook, she greeted him and continued fiddling with her new headphones.

Xiaoqi washed the bacon and vegetables separately.

Then fold the two ends of the beans. The heads and the fibers on the sides of the beans are relatively hard and should be removed.

When at home, Xiaoqi often helps to fold beans, and he is very skillful.

Fold all the beans, then cut them into small dices and set aside. Next, remove the red and dry skin on the onions to reveal the tender part inside, cut off the hairs, and cut them into small dices and set aside.

Peel and dice the carrots. Wash and dice the mushrooms, then add the bacon.

She cut a square piece of bacon the size of her palm and peeled it. The bacon was dark in color and was authentic smoked meat from her hometown. Before it was even cooked, Xiaoqi felt hungry.

As usual, he cut the food into cubes. When the bowls of small cubes were placed there, Xiao Qi realized that his knife skills seemed to be quite good.

Lin Qingqing also stood up curiously to look and took pictures.

Xiaoqi followed her, then washed the rice, poured in the vegetables layer by layer, and finally poured in the bacon, stirred it, and then added a little soy sauce and a little salt, because the bacon would be salty.

Then put it in the rice cooker and plug it in.

It seemed pretty easy, and the whole thing took less than half an hour.

The tomatoes were also washed and cut and set aside, but when she saw Lin Qingqing, she washed two more, gave one to her, and took one for herself to fill her stomach first.

The tomatoes I grow at home are still a little hard and have thick skins, but when you bite into them, they have a sweet and sour taste and a rich flavor, much better than the ones you buy outside.

After filling my stomach, I felt much more comfortable.

Xiaoqi plans to practice calligraphy for a while.

"Sister Xiaoqi, come and do your homework with me. My mom will be speechless and stop nagging when she sees me with you."

Xiao Qi saw that the sunlight in the yard was not too strong and the tunnel house was indeed rather stuffy, so he took out the copybook and sat outside with her.

There was a small table outside, which was now covered with a layer of cloth and had a few small stools. Xiao Qi sat down, felt the height was just right, and began to write.

Lin Qingqing listened to music, secretly read a novel, and placed a book on the table. Xiaoqi just smiled. She was very much like her previous self.

Occasionally there is the sound of an ambulance.

The sound of leaves shaking in the wind.

The nurse's cry.

The sound of rice pot gurgling.

The rustling sound of writing.

Su Xiaoqi was writing very seriously. A young man on a hospital bed by the window upstairs struggled to raise his bed and looked out the window. He originally just wanted to see the tree, but then he saw the girl writing under the tree.
