But after thinking about it for a while, she gave up on the idea.
It wasn't that she didn't trust Si Tian, but she was unwilling to risk her family, even if there was only a one in a billion chance.
"Anything is fine with me, what do you want to eat?"
Anyway, with the spiritual spring water and such delicious pickled cabbage, no matter what kind of meat it is, the taste should be pretty good.
Si Tian also suffers from decision-making difficulties. After agonizing for a long time, he still presented two options for Zhu Qing to choose from.
"Okay, so which do you think is tastier, pork ribs or pork belly? I've never had them stewed with sauerkraut before, so I don't know which one is better. You choose one, okay?"
She looked conflicted and tugged at Zhu Qinghao's sleeve.
Zhu Qinghao grabbed her hand, stopping her from shaking.
"Alright, alright, you've torn my clothes. Here, take the ribs, not the pork belly. Keep them to make braised pork."
After Zhu Qinghao answered, Si Tian felt as if she had been saved and agreed without hesitation.
"Oh, great! Shall we have braised pork tomorrow?"
Zhu Qinghao couldn't help but give her a look that was hard to describe.
"Do you want to listen to what you're saying? We haven't even eaten yet, and you're already thinking about tomorrow."
Si Tian chuckled and licked her lips sheepishly.
"Isn't it because winter is so boring? All I do all day is think about these things to pass the time. You won't let me think about side hustles, so all I can think about is eating and drinking."
Besides, it's just the two of us living here, so there's no way to do any entertainment.
Zhu Qinghao thought she was complaining about how quiet the place was, so she asked.
"What, you want to live with them? They must be..."
Before she could finish speaking, Si Tian quickly shook her head.
"No, no, no, it's too lively over there. I can't handle it. I'm not worthy of it. I prefer it here. It's quieter here, but there are no unpleasant things to do."
"Okay, okay, don't try to get me into trouble. I don't want to live with them, I'd rather die than go! I want to stay with you!"
Zhu Qinghao blinked, looking utterly innocent.
“I didn’t say I was going to send you to live with them. I was just saying that it’s more lively over there. What do you want to do? There will be someone to keep you company.”
Si Tian thought for a moment, then shook her head.
"Never mind, I don't think I'm that fond of crowds."
Thinking about how much trouble those educated youths at the settlement were good at causing, Si Tian suddenly realized that she must be someone who just doesn't like crowds.
"However, it seems we live a bit far away..."
Si Tian looked regretful, and Zhu Qinghao immediately saw what she was thinking, giving her an annoyed glare.
"Don't just watch other people's misfortunes all the time. Maybe they want to see your misfortunes too. If we get too close, we'll be involved in everything."
Si Tian sighed and smacked her lips.
"That's true. Never mind, I'd rather eat and drink, that's safer."
Both of them are action-oriented. Seeing that the sauerkraut was ready, they actually started making pork ribs, sauerkraut, and glass noodles stew. The pork ribs were naturally brought out by Si Tian.
The two were cooking together in the kitchen when a person, bundled up tightly, approached from outside Zhu Qinghao's backyard. However, the person seemed to hear laughter coming from the kitchen and quietly retreated.
