"Little sister, how about I make you some rabbit meat later?" Su Xue said, holding up the rabbit in her hand.
Su Yun looked at the rabbit in Su Xue's hand, pouted and said, "Roasting rabbit meat over a fire again, it's not tasty at all."
"No, today I'll just cook for you myself, how about that?" Su Xue said, putting down the utensils she was holding on the ground and picking up the wok. "Little sister, look, this is the wok for cooking. I'll use it to cook something delicious for you later."
When Su Yun heard that her older sister was going to cook for her, she jumped up with joy. A foodie is a foodie, and she is easily satisfied.
"Sister, where's the rice? Let me help you wash it." When Su Yun lived at Liu Xiaoyuan's house, she once helped Liu Xiaoyuan's mother wash rice.
Upon hearing this, Su Xue was taken aback and said, "I forgot, I forgot to buy rice."
Su Yun patted his belly and said, "Without rice, people can't get enough to eat!"
Liu Xiaoyuan said to Su Xue, "Come to my house tonight, and I'll give you some rice."
Next, Su Xue began to clean the gray rabbit. She was extremely skilled at skinning and gutting it. Seeing Su Xue's skillful knife work, Liu Xiaoyuan thought that Su Xue must be a person with excellent knife skills, and her cooking skills probably wouldn't be bad either.
As it turned out, Liu Xiaoyuan realized he was wrong, terribly wrong. Su Xue's knife skills were indeed good, but they were probably only adept at skinning and cleaning internal organs; as for cooking skills, Su Xue was completely clueless.
A wild rabbit was chopped into four pieces by Su Xue and was about to be put into a pot to stir-fry. And it wasn't stir-fried with oil, but rather a whole pot of water-boiled rabbit meat.
Upon seeing this, Liu Xiaoyuan immediately realized that Su Xue probably couldn't even cook.
"Su Xue, can you cook?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked, looking at Su Xue.
Su Xue said matter-of-factly, "No, what's wrong? This is my first time cooking!"
Liu Xiaoyuan was speechless. You just said you were going to make something delicious for Su Yun, but I think you're going to make some culinary disaster for her to try.
Liu Xiaoyuan shook his head, dodging the kitchen knife in Su Xue's hand. Seeing this, Su Xue looked at Liu Xiaoyuan coldly and asked, "What are you going to do?"
"What am I going to do? Of course, I'm going to show you what stir-frying is all about!" After saying that, Liu Xiaoyuan picked up a cleaver and chopped the rabbit meat into small pieces.
"See? You have to chop the rabbit meat into small pieces so it cooks faster and absorbs the flavors better," Liu Xiaoyuan explained as he chopped the rabbit meat.
Su Xue, watching Liu Xiaoyuan's actions, nodded as if she understood but not quite.
"Wash the ginger and garlic for me." Liu Xiaoyuan instructed Su Xue like a chef. Su Xue responded with an "oh" and immediately took the ginger and garlic from the bag and washed them.
After Su Xue prepared all the ingredients, Liu Xiaoyuan said to her, "Watch closely, see how I cook, and learn from me."
Liu Xiaoyuan poured out the water from the pot and waited for it to dry before pouring oil into the hot pot. Once the oil was about 70-80% hot, he put the chopped rabbit meat into the pot and stir-fried it.
Soon, an enticing aroma of rabbit meat wafted out, and Su Yun, the little foodie, almost drooled, smacking her lips and saying, "It smells so good!"
Even Su Xue, the ice queen, was attracted by the aroma of rabbit meat, which seemed to be a hundred times more fragrant than roasted rabbit meat.
Once the meat was almost cooked, Liu Xiaoyuan added the chopped ginger and garlic to the pot and stir-fried them together with the rabbit meat. This not only removed some of the rabbit meat's gamey smell but also enhanced the aroma of the dish.
Soon, the aroma of ginger, garlic, and rabbit meat wafted from the pot, mingling and entering the nostrils of Su Xue and her sister.
"It smells so good!" Su Xue couldn't help but feel her appetite whetted and exclaimed. As for Su Yun, that little foodie, it goes without saying that her mouth was practically watering.
Su Xue's beautiful eyes were fixed on Liu Xiaoyuan. As she watched him constantly stir-frying the vegetables in the pan, Su Xue felt for a moment that it would be incredibly blissful to have such a man taking care of her.
Seeing that the stir-frying was almost done, Liu Xiaoyuan scooped some water into the pot with a bowl, then put the lid on, clapped his hands, and said, "Wait a while, the fragrant rabbit meat will be ready."
About five minutes later, Liu Xiaoyuan lifted the lid of the pot, and another aroma wafted out. Seeing that there wasn't much soup left in the pot, Liu Xiaoyuan immediately added salt and light soy sauce, and then mixed it well.
"Su Xue, try it and see how salty it is," Liu Xiaoyuan said to Su Xue, scooping up a piece of rabbit meat with a spatula.
Su Xue wanted to use her delicate hands to take it, but she seemed afraid that Liu Xiaoyuan would scold her. Seeing this, Liu Xiaoyuan said, "Don't worry, just use your hands, it's fine."
Hearing this, Su Xue glanced at Liu Xiaoyuan, then picked up the rabbit meat from the spatula with her hand, turned her back, and put the rabbit meat into her mouth.
"How is it? How's the saltiness?" Liu Xiaoyuan pressed.
"Delicious!" Su Xue turned around and nodded quickly, but her eyes were fixed on the rabbit meat in the pot, as if she hadn't eaten for several days.
Hearing Su Xue say it was delicious, Liu Xiaoyuan took the bowl and scooped the rabbit meat out of the pot. And just like that, a bowl of fragrant rabbit meat was served.
Like Su Yun, Su Xue didn't know how to use chopsticks and was about to use her hands to eat the rabbit meat in the bowl when Liu Xiaoyuan stopped her, saying, "Use chopsticks to eat, especially Su Xue. You're such a grown-up, you must learn to use chopsticks."
Su Xue felt that it was unrefined to always use her hands to pick up food, so she picked up chopsticks, but she couldn't hold them properly at all.
Liu Xiaoyuan couldn't bear to watch any longer, so he walked over to Su Xue's side, grabbed her right hand with both hands, and was about to teach her how to hold chopsticks when he saw Su Xue staring intently at him.
Damn it, you accidentally touched that girl's hand; that's blatantly taking advantage of her.
Liu Xiaoyuan quickly let go of his hand and said, "I'm sorry."
I originally thought that even if Su Xue wasn't angry, she would at least say a few cold words. But to my surprise, Su Xue not only wasn't angry, but instead said, "I haven't even learned how to hold chopsticks yet, why are you letting go?"
Upon hearing Su Xue's words, Liu Xiaoyuan thought he had misheard.
Su Xue actually took the initiative to let him hold her hand. Liu Xiaoyuan naturally couldn't miss such a good opportunity.
Liu Xiaoyuan immediately grabbed Su Xue's small hand again, feeling that Su Xue's small hand was soft and smooth, and the feeling of touching it was extremely comfortable.
As soon as he covered her with both hands, Liu Xiaoyuan couldn't help but grope her a few times. Seeing this, Su Xue glanced at Liu Xiaoyuan and asked, "What are you touching me for?"
Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile, "No, I just wanted to see if your hands could learn to hold chopsticks as soon as possible."
Su Xue actually believed Liu Xiaoyuan's nonsense and asked, "How is it? Will my hands be able to learn to hold chopsticks soon?"
Holy crap! They're that easy to fool?
"I don't know yet. I need to keep watching to find out the answer." After saying that, Liu Xiaoyuan began to openly take advantage of Su Xue's soft hands.
