In the next twenty minutes, Xu Hongyi and Yu Feng, Mao Lingling and Zhan Qi also entered the room one after another.
Mao Lingling said to Qin Fei and Bai Xiang very honestly, "Two seniors, if we are at the bottom, please give us some food."
Concubine Qin: "Okay, okay."
But the fact proved that even if they had done their homework urgently, it was still just acting. Mao Lingling and Zhan Qi only got four questions right each, which was a tie with Jiang Mo and Li Zimeng. She left in dissatisfaction.
Xu Hongyi and Yu Feng are an elderly couple and they answered seven questions correctly.
The rankings were Qin Fei and Jiang Zixi, Xu Hongyi and Yu Feng, Bai Xiang and Yu An, and the last two groups ended in a tie.
The director team calculated the answering time and found that Mao Lingling and Zhan Qi were at the bottom.
Since it was expected, the two were not very disappointed.
Jiang Mo and Li Zimeng looked a little embarrassed. They were so confident that they thought they would be the first.
Now it’s time to choose ingredients.
...
...
Concubine Qin and Jiang Zixi began to choose——
Princess Qin took the pork ribs and potatoes without hesitation, and asked Jiang Zixi what he liked.
Jiang Zixi pointed to the cauliflower, peppers, eggs, and vermicelli.
The two of them selected enough ingredients for a dinner in the evening and stopped taking more, leaving them for others.
The second couple to come forward were Xu Hongyi and Yu Feng.
The director didn’t prepare much food, it was very limited. If they took too much, there would be little left for the people behind. Oh, they didn’t need to take too much. Even if they took as little as possible, the first three people would only have simple dishes left for the people behind. ..
As for the last two groups, Mao Lingling and Zhan Qi were not nervous when they saw that there were few ingredients left, because they were already prepared to eat for free.
Li Zimeng and Jiang Mo were the fourth group to step forward and took the remaining egg, cauliflower, and the not-so-large amount of chicken. Li Zimeng looked back at Mao Lingling and the others apologetically and said, "How about we eat together?"
Mao Lingling thought that this amount of food was not enough for one person, let alone four people. "It's okay, it's okay. Concubine Qin and I have agreed to go to her place for a meal."
Li Zimeng breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this. She was reluctant to give away such a small amount of things, but she had to act generous in front of the camera.
Mao Lingling and Zhan Qi strolled towards the third room holding the last lettuce.
Among these people——
Mao Lingling was afraid of being embarrassed if she disturbed Bai Xiang and Yu An, a real couple. She also felt uncomfortable as Xu Hongyi and Yu Feng were of higher seniority and were husband and wife. Only Qin Fei and Jiang Zixi, a fake couple, did she feel no pressure to disturb.
Dragging Zhan Qi and holding the remaining ingredients, the two of them strolled to the third house.
"Princess Qin!"
"This." Qin Fei's voice responded.
Mao Lingling subconsciously looked towards the door, but there was no one there. After searching for a while, she finally saw Concubine Qin peeking out of a window. Concubine Qin waved at them and said, "In the kitchen, come over."
Just as she finished shouting, a hand reached out and took her back. It was Jiang Zixi. "Don't look so far out. It's dangerous. I'll go open the door."
Three minutes later
Jiang Zixi opened the door.
Zhan Qi said embarrassedly, "Excuse me."
Jiang Zixi said, "It's okay."
The three of them went back to the kitchen, where Concubine Qin was standing in front of the stove. No one could cook better than her. After all, she had been in charge of cooking since the time when the eldest wife of the Qin family had something going on.
Jiang Zixi was responsible for helping to peel potatoes and doing other chores.
Zhan Qi realized that he couldn't just eat other people's food for free, so he said, "Is there anything we can do to help?"
Concubine Qin said, "Then you should wash the pots and pans. It feels like they have been left there for a long time."
Mao Lingling and Zhan Qi agreed immediately, and the small kitchen was instantly crowded with people.
Mao Lingling was even more relieved. It turned out that there was no pressure here.
Jiang Zixi cut the potatoes into pieces, took a small piece and asked Concubine Qin: "Is this okay?"
Concubine Qin said, "It's a little big. It's a little smaller. It's about this size." She gestured with her hands.
Jiang Zixi also looked at it seriously and nodded, and then cut it again, and the size was just what Concubine Qin wanted.
After finishing the fight, he did not leave, but stood by the stove. Although it was already autumn, the fire in the kitchen was hot. Qin Fei had a thin layer of sweat on her forehead. Jiang Zixi looked at her and took out a tissue: "Wipe the sweat."
Concubine Qin thanked him and was about to take it, but her hand fell empty. Jiang Zixi personally wiped the sweat off her face.
Concubine Qin had her hands full, so she didn't think much of it. "The potatoes are almost cooked. How about you try it?" She took a small plate, put a small piece of potato on it and handed it to Jiang Zixi's mouth, asking him to help her taste it.
Since she started filming, she hasn't cooked like this for several years.
When I go back to Lao Qin's house, I basically cook for my mother and Fei, and everything is simple.
Jiang Zixi was tall, and he bent down slightly and lowered his head when he heard her, until his forehead was almost touching hers before he tasted the potatoes.
The smell of a man suddenly came between her nose, with a strong smell of hormones that made her heart skip a beat. She felt that he was too close, and wanted to retreat without leaving a trace. However, there was no room to retreat behind him. Well, she could only wait for Jiang Zixi to retreat, but he didn't rush to retreat. He ate the potatoes, tasted one carefully, and said, "It seems a bit bland, no salt?"
Concubine Qin suddenly realized, "I forgot."
She quickly looked for the seasoning, luckily there was some in the kitchen.
Try it again after adding salt, the taste will be almost the same.
Jiang Zixi suddenly laughed.
Concubine Qin glanced at him in confusion and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Zixi stepped back and stood up straight, saying, "My brother also made stewed potatoes last time, but it wasn't pork ribs, it was chicken."
Concubine Qin was surprised, "Brother Jiang Chen can cook."
Jiang Zixi said, "No, I learned it at the last minute."
Concubine Qin understood immediately, "Is it for Sister Mingyue?"
Jiang Zixi nodded, "That's right."
Concubine Qin clicked her tongue twice and said, "I can't tell. I can't tell. Is it delicious?"
Jiang Zixi said bluntly, "It's not tasty. It's not cooked at all."
Concubine Qin laughed out loud.
Seeing her smile, Jiang Zixi continued, "I went there at a wrong time. I had just finished work and was thinking of going to see my brother during a break. But he was cooking and invited me to stay for a meal. I thought it was nothing, but the stew was either too hard to eat or too salty. But guess what?"
Concubine Qin turned around and gave him a curious look.
Jiang Zixi said helplessly, "Mingyue was lying and praised the food throughout the whole process, saying it was delicious and made my brother feel flattered. Do you think this is a case of beauty in the eyes of the beholder or is there really something wrong with their taste buds?"
Qin Fei thought of Jiang Zixi's awkward state of wanting to speak but not being able to speak at the dining table, and almost laughed out loud, "I know about this, Mingyue doesn't want to cook. Whoever works hard shouldn't complain, so of course she has to praise him. If she gets frustrated, what if Brother Chen doesn't do it next time? She will have to do it all."
Jiang Zixi thought it made sense and said, "I won't do that."
Concubine Qin: “?”
Jiang Zixi said, "If we were together, I wouldn't let you cook." After a pause, he said, "This time is an exception. I will learn when I go back."
