章 40: Chapter 40: The beginning of cooking

作者: Carefree 機械翻訳

It was only at this moment that they began to believe what others had said about Sheng Fenghua making Li Chunmei choke.

Sheng Fenghua was not in the mood to care about their opinions, though. These two days in the hospital, she had not eaten well at all. So when she returned home, she sat down to rest before starting to cook and pick vegetables.

Si Zhanbei watched and reached out to help.

Seeing that he was so proactive, Sheng Fenghua nodded her head in satisfaction. Not bad, he had good taste. Even if Si Zhanbei did not help, she could still handle it. But for ladies, a man who would take the initiative to lend a hand with the housework was rare and valuable.

The two of them worked together, and the vegetables were quickly picked.

Next, Sheng Fenghua handed the picked vegetables to Si Zhanbei and said, "I'll go deal with the chicken and fish; you wash the vegetables."

"Okay!" Si Zhanbei did not say much, picked up the basket, and went to wash the vegetables.

Sheng Fenghua went into the kitchen and cut the fish. She separated the head and body, chopped the body into small pieces, and immersed them in cooking wine starch. She not only liked to eat the fish head but also liked to eat fried little pieces of fish.

Therefore, when she bought the fish today, she specifically bought a whole fish, not just the fish head.

After she was finished the fish, Sheng Fenghua was ready to cut the chicken into small pieces. Si Zhanbei was also done with his task, bringing out the vegetables. He saw her chopping the chicken with a knife.

He could not help but walk in, take the knife from her hand, and say, "Rest for a while. I'll cut it."

Sheng Fenghua was stunned when she heard that. She turned to look at Si Zhanbei for a while, handed the knife to him, and turned to peel the garlic. Although he didn't know how to cook, his strength was greater than her. In just a few moves, he had chopped the chicken into small pieces.

After he was done, he asked Sheng Fenghua, "Are there any more vegetables to cut? I'll do them all together."

"There's no need. You can sit outside. I'll do the rest myself." With that, Sheng Fenghua pushed Si Zhanbei out of the kitchen and began to cook.

Si Zhanbei turned around, left the kitchen, sat in the living room, and read a book. However, after keeping it open for a long time, he still did not read a single word. His gaze would sweep in the direction of the kitchen from time to time. When he smelled the fragrance wafting here, there were a few times where he almost got up to take a look.

Although he wanted to see what smelled so good, he was afraid that Sheng Fenghua would be unhappy. Amidst this kind of mood, half an hour soon passed. Sheng Fenghua's dishes were almost done, so she shouted, "Zhanbei, get a bowl and chopsticks. It's time to eat."

Hearing Sheng Fenghua's shout, Si Zhanbei threw the book aside, stood up quickly, and went to the kitchen.

When he walked into the kitchen and saw the few cooked dishes, his eyes were filled with surprise. Not to mention the fragrance, just their appearance whet his appetite.

Looking at these dishes, Si Zhanbei's mind flashed with doubt again. Previously, he had occasionally seen Sheng Fenghua's cooking, but they had been this good.

Could it be that along with her personality, even her cooking skills had changed?

While he was thinking, he heard Sheng Fenghua say, "What are you daydreaming about? Quickly get the bowls and chopsticks. It's time to eat."

As Sheng Fenghua said this, she even pushed Si Zhanbei.

After a slight nudge, he came back to his senses. He took the bowls and chopsticks from the cupboard, washed them, and left the kitchen.

Then, he went back in and carried out the dishes that Sheng Fenghua had prepared.

When he had finished arranging the food, Sheng Fenghua came out with the last bowl of soup. Si Zhanbei looked at the steaming soup and was worried that she might get hurt, so he quickly went forward to take it.

After he placed the soup on the table, he turned to look at Sheng Fenghua and said, "In the future, I'll handle such matters. How are you? Was it hot?"
