Chapter 11: Cooking for the First Time



"But then again, just now on the road, Brother Sheng told me to remember to bring gloves and water to work tomorrow. I thought I'd boil some mung bean water to help relieve the heat."

"Okay, then I can be responsible for making a fire. I am good at making a fire and I am very skilled at it!"

Hearing this, Nanqiao looked up at Xian Chen in surprise and said, "How do you know how to make a fire?"

Shen Nian chuckled and said a little embarrassedly, "Isn't this just because I was playful when I was a kid? My grandma's home is in the countryside, and every time I go back, I make a fire and roast sweet potatoes with the children in the village..."

"Well, I've learned a skill..."

"Then go make a fire first, I'll wash these and they'll be ready in no time."

"Okay, but, Xixi, there are two stoves here, do you want to use both?"

"Let's cook them all. We also need to steam the rice and boil the mung bean water for a while to make it taste better," Nanqiao said after thinking for a while.

"Okay, it will be ready soon," Shen Nian said, jumping and running to the kitchen

After washing the vegetables, Shen Nian returned to her room and took out some seasonings, dried chili peppers, green beans and some dried white fungus from the space.

When Nanqiao came out of the room, Shen Nian had just started a fire, so Nanqiao prepared the rice first.

The rice is white and tender without any impurities.

But Shen Nian's life at home was not bad, so he didn't notice anything unusual.

Just after I steamed the rice and washed the green beans and white fungus and soaked them in water, I heard Shen Nian's voice.

"Qiaoqiao, I've got it done. What else do you need me to do?"

"No, go wash your face and cool it down for a while, you are sweating all over."

Shen Nian wiped the sweat from his forehead carelessly and said, “Then I’ll go wash my face. Call me if you have any work to do.”

"Okay, go ahead," Nanqiao said

Nanqiao saw that the fire was already lit, so he quickly stir-fried some cabbage. After the cabbage was done, he smelled the aroma of rice on the side. After it was simmered for a while, he scooped out the rice and placed it on the counter on the side. He then took a bowl and covered it with it.

As for the stewed rice, I washed it, poured water and mung beans into it and continued to cook.

After preparing the rice, Nanqiao started to fry the spicy chicken....

In this regard, Nanqiao's taste is very similar to Shen Nian's. Although he is from Shanghai, he loves spicy food very much....
