Xin Sui probed his consciousness into the spatial ring and took out the ingredients he needed—sandworms, sand onions, and flour.
Sandworms are a type of arthropod with modified limbs. They are long and slender, somewhat resembling a chubby centipede, but without legs.
Although it looks a bit ugly, once you peel off the shell, the meat inside is white and translucent with a pinkish tinge, thick and tender, much like lobster meat.
In her experience, this meat should taste pretty good.
"Come on, help me remove the shells from these sandworms."
Xin Sui assigned tasks to Xiao Ming.
Although this little thing had tried to kill her not long ago, it was so small, beautiful, and cute that she couldn't feel any fear towards it.
Therefore, I have no psychological burden when I ask him to do things.
Xiao Ming, however, didn't realize he was being ordered around at all. He thought he was playing a game and happily helped her deal with the sandworms.
The sandworm was as long as his arm and weighed five or six pounds. He just ripped off the shell completely with his little hands in a few quick movements.
They did it quickly and well.
She is truly an excellent kitchen helper.
Xin Sui praised him generously: "Xiao Ming is really great."
She even tentatively patted his little head.
This was the first time Xiaoming had been praised, and he felt very excited.
Moreover, her hands were soft, a completely different feeling from when Xiao Guang touched his head.
"Hehe, is there anything else?" Xiaoming showed great enthusiasm for cooking.
Xin Sui was happy to oblige him, pointing to the bunch of wild onions: "And help me clean this one too."
She first demonstrated to him how to process wild onions.
Xiao Ming is very smart; he learned it in no time.
Xin Sui heated the pot.
It's called a pot, but it's actually just an oversized iron ladle that I smuggled from the Li family's nutritional paste processing plant.
There are only two kinds of seasonings: shallot oil made from sand onions and salt made from salt thorn leaves.
Of all flavors, saltiness is the most important.
With "salt" in hand, things become much easier.
Moreover, high-end ingredients are often prepared using the simplest cooking methods.
When Xuan Tu came out of the bath, he smelled an extremely tempting fragrance.
The aroma instantly awakened his long-dormant appetite.
He followed the smell into the yard and saw Xiaoming surrounding "Li Xueli," constantly asking, "Is it ready yet? How much longer? Can I have a piece first?"
The aroma was coming from the iron ladle on top of the crystal furnace.
The sandworm meat inside was fried until golden brown on both sides, with a crispy and slightly charred outer skin and a snow-white and tender interior.
"Okay, here, have a taste, be careful it's hot."
Xin Sui picked up a piece of food and gently fed it to Xiao Ming's mouth with her hand.
Xiao Ming wasn't afraid of getting burned. He took a big bite, and his cheeks puffed out as he chewed, which was especially cute.
It makes you want to take a bite.
Xin Sui couldn't help but smile with a kind, aunt-like expression. "Is it delicious?"
Xiao Ming covered his mouth with his hand, afraid that the meat in his mouth would fall out, and kept nodding, saying indistinctly, "Delicious!"
The meat is fried, but what if there's no plate?
Xin Sui set his sights on the leaves of that mutated pea plant.
One piece is as big as a washbasin, just the right size to use as a plate.
Xin Sui went over to pick a leaf, but before he could even touch it, a huge pea came flying at him.
If she hadn't dodged quickly, she probably would have gotten a big bump on her head.
Then more peas started shooting at her, it was like a real-life "Peashooter".
Xin Sui covered her head and ran away.
"Xiaoming, help me!"
Xiao Ming flew over, hands on his hips, and ordered the pea vine, "Stop smashing it! If you break it, who's going to cook me something delicious?"
Xin Sui: "..."
This little thing is so real!
Turning around, I saw Xuan Tu standing at the door, his aloof yet devilish face now carrying a hint of a smile.
His hair was still wet, probably from a recent shower, and he was enveloped in a light mist of moisture.
Like a water sprite rising from the bottom of a well.
Dangerous yet alluring.
My heart started beating uncontrollably.
Xin Sui lowered her eyes slightly and pinched her palm.
Xin Sui, you better live up to your standards! This is the person who tortured you six times!
Why is your heart beating so fast?
"Alright, dinner's ready."
On the table, bright green pea leaves serve as plates, supporting freshly pan-fried sandworm meat.
The meat chunks were still sizzling with oil, sprinkled with chopped shallots and saltwort leaves, and it smelled amazing.
Next to it was a stack of dough sheets thinner than paper, a mutated cactus cut into thin strips, and fresh, tender pea leaves just picked from the vine.
Xin Sui demonstrated by picking up a piece of dough, placing a piece of sandworm meat on it, adding a pinch of glistening cactus shreds and a few tender pea leaves, and then rolling it up.
A simple version of a meat roll is ready.
"Have you learned it?"
"Uh-huh!"
Xiao Ming couldn't wait to start cooking, and without any instruction, he even added an extra piece of meat to his plate.
He rolled up the meat pie, held it with both hands, stood directly on the table, and ate until he was almost buried in it.
To Xin Sui's surprise, Xuan Tu also sat down at the table and even rolled himself a meat pie.
"In the novel, Xuan Tu lost his sense of taste after his mother died. Later, when he became stronger, he could maintain his body's needs through cultivation alone and did not need to eat. So he never touched food again."
"It's one thing that he didn't refuse the pancakes Xiaoming gave him before, but why is he sitting down now?"
Xin Sui watched as Xuan Tu took a bite of the meat roll.
The next second, she heard a sound—
[Major villain's corruption value -1]
The Xuan Tu's corruption value has been reduced!
