Zong Ruoan became even more interested: "Oh? You can cook? How does your cooking compare to your aunt's?"
Xia Chujian compared with her hands: "Compared to my aunt, there is a huge gap... But compared with other chefs, I think I can also reach the top."
Everyone: “…”
This is a bit of an exaggeration.
Xia Yuanfang smiled and touched Xia Chujian's forehead, saying, "You didn't eat much candy today, did you? How come you're drunk?"
Xia Chujian hugged Xia Yuanfang's shoulders and said, "Aunt, I'm so sleepy, my heart is beating so fast..."
"It's not midnight yet, you can't sleep." Ping Qiong pulled Xia Chujian over, "Come, let's play finger-guessing games!"
The two girls started playing Turtle Fist with great interest.
Li Fu pulled Song Mingqian and said, "Let's play finger-guessing! Let's play the real man's game!"
Ye Shijie was drinking red wine alone, looking ahead with empty eyes, as if he had no focus.
Xia Yuanfang lowered his eyes, not looking at anyone, and scooped himself a bowl of creamy soup from the Zong family.
The soup tastes okay, but the proportion of cream is a little too much, so when you take the first bite, it feels greasy and makes you choke.
Xia Yuanfang felt that if she was given the same ingredients, she could make it taste better.
Zong Ruoan looked at Xia Yuanfang at this time, changed her address and said, "Aunt Xia, Chu Jian just mentioned that you used to be a senior researcher at Li's Pharmaceuticals?"
Xia Yuanfang nodded: "Yes, I raised Chu Jian with the salary there."
Since Xia Yuanfang had no intention of becoming a chef, and Xia Chujian also said that Xia Yuanfang was better at other things than being a chef, Zong Ruoan suggested, "I wonder if Aunt Xia still wants to go back to being a researcher?"
Xia Yuanfang smiled and said, "No, at my age, I don't want to work for others anymore."
But if you don’t work, you won’t have any income.
Zong Ruoan felt that it was inappropriate for Xia Chujian to become a bounty hunter at such a young age.
He stared at Xia Yuanfang and said, “Aunt Xia is still young, haven’t you ever thought about finding a new job?”
Xia Yuanfang seemed to understand what he meant and smiled, saying, "Of course I've thought about it, but I want to do something new and meaningful. I'm collecting information now, and I'll get started once I'm well again."
Zong Ruoan wanted to persuade her again, but he thought of Xia Chujian's school records that he had found.
With her poor academic performance, she probably can't do anything else except being a bounty hunter.
What's more, she has some talent as a bounty hunter.
Although she is not a genetically evolved person, her talent in firearms is really outstanding.
Zong Ruoan looked at Xia Chujian with deep eyes. Many thoughts ran through his mind, but he finally suppressed them one by one.
A few people chatted and laughed, and soon it was almost midnight.
Everyone turned on their virtual display screens and tuned into the Imperial Royal Television's midnight countdown event.
Although the Beichen Empire already has quantum communication technology, and can ignore the long distances between stars when communicating with each other and achieve the effect of instant communication, each planet also has its own four seasons and division of day and night, so it is not possible to achieve time consistency in everything.
For example, midnight on New Year’s Eve is based on the time in the capital of Beichen Star.
At midnight in the imperial capital of Beichen Star, not to mention on other planets, even in other places on the same planet, it may be daytime or nighttime. In short, the time is different.
Therefore, some activities, such as this empire-wide New Year's Eve event, are recorded in the imperial capital of Beichen Star, and then sent to local planetary TV stations, and then broadcast on time according to the time in other places.
At midnight on New Year's Eve in Mulan City on Guiyuan Star, they were watching a recording of the large-scale New Year's Eve event held in the imperial capital of Beichen Star a few hours ago.
But everyone has gotten used to it, and is not any less interested just because it's a recorded broadcast.
Because they can use three-dimensional holographic projection to project the situation at that time into their own living room and feel the atmosphere at that time.
When the recording of the New Year's Eve event began to play, everyone saw on the virtual screen in front of them that it seemed that all the people in the Beichen Empire had gathered in the large square in front of the Beichen Star Imperial Palace.
Of course, only a small number of people actually come to this square to participate in the annual New Year's Eve countdown and blessing activities.
Most people can only use a three-dimensional holographic virtual system to project themselves onto this square.
These projected people are either standing or sitting, and some are even lying on the bed.
Of course, this kind of projection will have a live broadcast segment, so there is mechanical intelligence responsible for supervising and screening the projections that can be broadcast live.
Those projections that made indecent gestures in an attempt to attract popularity during the New Year's Eve countdown were blocked by mechanical intelligence early on.
These people can see themselves, but others cannot see them.
Let them entertain themselves...
