Taste it before eating. If it doesn’t have enough salt, eat it directly. If it doesn’t have enough salt, add some soy sauce and mix it.
The rice may not look as good as before, but it smells delicious. The first bite is filled with the flavors of all the ingredients, not a mix, and no one ingredient is too strong; everything is just right.
After packing the ingredients in the kitchen, Li Xi walked around, mixing and eating. Before she even reached the table to sit down, half of the rice was gone. Since there were no outsiders around, Li Xi didn't care about table manners at all, hugging the bowl and digging into the food.
After a while, the bowl of rice was empty. Li Xi was very satisfied with the meal and was about to get up for another bowl when she looked up and saw Luo Jingxuan and Assistant Jiang coming in.
So fast?
"You're back?" Li Xi was so surprised that she was a little stunned. Plus, she had just eaten so much that her lips were greasy, making her look like a child caught eating secretly. It was a little cute.
Touched by Li Xi's cuteness, Luo Jingxuan coughed twice to cover up. "I'm back," he said, and then went to his room. Li Xi thought, probably going back to the room to wash his hands and change clothes before coming out to eat.
Assistant Jiang paid no attention to the beauty, only smelling the aroma of food in the air. When Luo Jingxuan's figure was blocked by the stairs, he rushed to the kitchen in one step and followed Li Xi into the kitchen door.
"Ms. Li, why didn't you wait for us and ate alone first?" Assistant Jiang's tone was filled with resentment. He did not hesitate at all. He washed his hands hastily at the sink and opened the cupboard to get a bowl.
"I thought even if you guys were coming back, it would be around 9 or 10 o'clock. Who knew you'd come so early?" Li Xi had gotten used to Assistant Jiang's outgoing nature. As long as Luo Jingxuan wasn't around, Assistant Jiang treated Li Xi like a friend, or a dining companion, without any politeness at all.
"I hope the ingredients you prepared are enough for us." While she was speaking, Li Xi had already served the rice and prepared the side dishes. She was now scooping the sauce. This time she chose fried chicken mushrooms.
"It's not enough. You can prepare it now." After scooping the sauce, Li Xi stepped aside and started mixing the rice. By the way, she instructed Assistant Jiang to choose the sauce himself. "There are several kinds of sauces. There is freshly made mushroom meat sauce, fried chicken mushroom sauce made two days ago, and there are also ready-made beef sauce and Korean bibimbap sauce. It depends on which one you like. Choose it yourself."
"The first bowl must be the freshly made mushroom and meat sauce. It smells so good when it's fresh out of the oven." Assistant Jiang has a bigger appetite than Li Xi. He serves more rice and chooses more dishes than Li Xi. When he scoops the sauce, he also scoops an extra spoonful.
Li Xi had already mixed the food and was already carrying the bowl to the dining room when Assistant Jiang slowly emerged from the kitchen. He was in a similar state to Li Xi before, eating as he walked.
When preparing the bibimbap, the two of them still had the energy to chat, but now that they were eating, no one wanted to speak and they just focused on finishing the food in front of them.
When Luo Jingxuan changed his clothes and came down, he saw his cheap wife and the daring little assistant sitting face to face. Each of them held a bowl and buried their heads in eating, and no one spoke.
Hearing the noise, the two of them looked up at the same time, then lowered their heads in tacit understanding and continued eating.
Luo Jingxuan: “…”
In the end, Aunt Lin couldn't bear it anymore and helped Luo Jingxuan to serve the rice and dishes. Then, she was very "understanding" and helped Luo Jingxuan choose the mushroom and meat sauce that Li Xi had just cooked.
When the meal was served, she even "specially" reminded him to choose the meat sauce that Miss Li had just prepared.
Luo Jingxuan: "..." The little assistant who was trying to persuade the boss to go home for dinner because of his stuttering was so busy eating that he had no attention for his wife. He was always thinking about helping his wife to sell good things for him.
Well, my cheap wife has bribed most of the people around me.
