"Men are not like this when they first get married. They want to feed the food to their mouths. It will be fine in a long time."
It is normal for couples to be clingy during the honeymoon period, but they will eventually dislike each other, and with the pressure of life, no one will want to please each other anymore.
"That's true."
Mrs. Liu didn't think so. She whispered, "I heard that Miss Qi's man has been pursuing her for many years. It should be different, right?"
"My husband was also very passionate when we first got married, but he didn't buy me meals every morning. Although it was just a side job, people are different."
Mrs. Chen was silent.
Yes, her husband had never done such a thing. When they got married in the countryside, she had to get up and cook for the whole family the next day. It was tiring and embarrassing. Now thinking about it, she had to agree with Mrs. Liu.
After Qi Sisi filled her stomach, she went downstairs to continue working.
I have finished making dumplings and am now making steamed stuffed buns.
It was small and delicate, about the size of a baby's fist. At Qi Sisi's request, it was filled with quite a bit of stuffing. It was bulging and had a circle of wrinkles, which looked very pleasing.
Qi Sisi suddenly had an idea, and asked Zhao Xingyu to get some red yeast rice powder from upstairs, and after diluting it with water, she would add a little red to the small circle in the middle of each bun.
The contrast between white and red is very obvious.
“It’s pretty good!”
Zhao Xingyu said seriously.
Qi Sisi grinned with great satisfaction at that time.
"Sister Qi, should we steam the buns first or cook the dumplings first?"
“Steam the buns first!”
Qi Sisi did not hesitate.
Unlike dumplings, steamed buns are fine to be eaten cold.
The dumplings have to be eaten hot.
Besides, after all the trouble, it's already eight o'clock.
In two hours, dinner will be ready.
The buns are steamed and the dumplings are set aside, placed neatly on a large stainless steel plate.
Piled high.
Give one to everyone to try.
"tasty!"
Zhao Xingyu finished a bun in two bites, his eyes narrowed, and the coldness around him disappeared.
"Eat slowly, be careful of the heat."
Qi Sisi pointed at him in a reproachful manner and handed him another bun.
Zhao Xingyu was obedient and savored it slowly this time.
He was holding a bun in his hand, but his eyes were always on Qi Sisi. It was unclear which one he wanted to eat...
The buns were all steamed, so Qi Sisi was in no hurry to cook the dumplings.
"Let's prepare the ingredients first."
After nine o'clock, the vegetables purchased by the canteen were delivered, including lettuce, cabbage, and asparagus.
The meats included pork, pork ribs, five lively perches, and a few large shrimps.
To her surprise, there was also beef, which she said was obtained by her teacher, Old Man Liu.
There are also some tofu, bean curd skin and so on.
The custom-made iron pot was delivered by Yang Dongbiao, who is also coming to eat today.
He used to be from this military region, and some people knew him. He was allowed to pass with his discharge certificate.
Coming with him were Black Cat's gang. The young men were talking and laughing while carrying a few red square tables.
Place it on an empty space, spread the two legs apart to form an X with a circle, and then put the table top on it.
There were 3 tables in total, which were moved in two batches.
"Just in time!"
"I'll leave the job of cutting vegetables to you guys."
Zhao Xingyu was not polite at all when he summoned people.
He still remembers how these guys questioned his wife before.
Sisi clearly has a special liking for him, and it's really too much for these guys to dare to question her.
"ah......"
The black cat screamed immediately and wished it could fall to the ground.
"Even the donkeys in the production team don't yell like that..."
I just finished moving a table and I’m sweating all over. Don’t you even have time to breathe?
"Boss, aren't we here as guests today?"
Big Bear couldn't understand. He just wanted to come here to have a good meal, so why did he have to work?
"Are you bringing a gift?"
Zhao Xingyu glanced at the hands of several people without any hesitation. They all came with empty hands. How could they have such shame?
"no......"
Several people answered sadly.
It seems that today is unavoidable, the boss is worthy of being the boss.
After washing the vegetables, cut the lettuce into two sections; peel and slice the asparagus; and split the Chinese cabbage in half in the middle to ensure that the leaves are not too large to fit in the pot.
Since we have beef, we can use pork to make meatballs.
There happened to be a few unpaid laborers, so we asked them to take turns chopping the meat into stuffing.
"You came at the right time. I'll give this job to you." Zhao Xingyu called out without any politeness.
If you want to eat, you have to work.
His wife is busy there, why do these brats want to eat ready-made food!
Cut the beef into thin slices, marinate it to remove the fishy smell, and then blanch it in the pot for a few minutes before eating.
This job requires meticulous work, so Qi Sisi was in charge.
She was using the chef's knife that Master Liu had given her as a gift. It was a long, slender knife that was small and thin overall, making it perfect for slicing meat.
I happened to be close to a few young men and saw it clearly, which caused a lot of laughter.
"Sister-in-law's work is so good!"
"I've never heard that my sister-in-law can cook before?"
"The meat is sliced so thin, it won't fall into the pot when it's hot pot, right?"
Several people were muttering to each other.
Zhao Xingyu said proudly: "When you meet someone, you should look at him with new eyes. Your sister-in-law has now become the apprentice of Chef Liu in the cafeteria. She studies hard every day, so her skills are naturally different."
He looked so proud that if you didn't know him well, you would think he was the one becoming the disciple.
Several members of the team immediately exclaimed even louder.
"Sister-in-law is worthy of being sister-in-law. She even learns from the best teacher when cooking!"
"Boss, why don't you go and become an apprentice? Are you going to let your sister-in-law cook for the family?" Black Cat deliberately targeted him.
Zhao Xingyu was almost choked.
"Sisi likes to study, so I took this opportunity to become your disciple. Stop slandering me."
His cooking skills are also very good. He usually cooks for himself when he has nothing to do. He used to cook often at Qi's house, and Sisi has eaten a lot of it.
"Yes, Brother Xingyu's craftsmanship is very good." Qi Sisi replied with a sweet smile, staring at him with a mischievous smile on the corner of her mouth.
Zhao Xingyu suddenly felt as if a fire was burning in his heart, making his body and mind feel hot, and his ears quietly turned red.
Is the craftsmanship Sisi is talking about cooking skills or real "craftsmanship"?
