Chapter 35 Candlelight Dinner

He didn't think much about it, he really needed to hurry up. In the past, I just put the water in and cooked the rice, so it didn't matter. Now we have to cook. If it's dark, we can't be sure whether the vegetables are cooked or not. If they are overcooked, we won't be able to eat them.

While thinking about it, he put in the water, put the washed rice in, and then put two more sausages on top. Then, we started to stir-fry the bacon. Since there were no side dishes, we just stir-fried it briefly.

As for the water used to soak the bacon, it was poured directly into the pot together with the carrots, and the carrots were boiled. It just so happens that carrots don't have much water, so they can absorb a little water, make them taste less bad, and save a lot of water. Moreover, there is salt in the water from soaking the bacon, so even the salt is omitted.

The last step is to fry the fish, because fish has a fishy smell. If this dish is cooked in the front, the fishy smell will not be easily washed away, which will cause the fishy smell to be stained on the subsequent dishes, affecting the taste of the dish.

After finishing it, he put the dishes on the table. Since it was only for two people, he didn't make much to avoid wasting it. Although I gained a lot today, it is relatively scarce after all. If I don’t find new food later, I won’t have anything to eat.

After doing this, the rice happened to be cooked, so he served two bowls of rice, each with a sausage on top.

At this time, Wang Qiushui also came out. She was wiping her wet hair with a towel, but her nose was twitching, "It smells so good, I can already smell the scent of bacon."

He took out a candle, lit it with a lighter, and placed it in the middle of the table. "Well, the food is ready, just enough to eat."

Wang Qiushui nodded, "Do you want to wait until you finish taking a shower?"

He shook his head, "No, the food is still hot now, let's eat first. I'll just wash the bowls and stuff later and wipe them."

Wang Qiushui said "Oh", then asked with a blushing face, "You didn't peek at me taking a shower just now, did you?"

He took a step back and looked at her in fear, "Have you discovered all this?"

Wang Qiushui's face turned even redder, "**."

He couldn't help but laugh, "If I peeked at you taking a shower, I wouldn't have time to cook. Besides, the door is closed so tightly and it's not transparent. How could I peek in?"

Wang Qiushui blushed. She put the towel away, then snorted and sat down, "Then how do I know? I won't tell you anymore. I'm so hungry."

He sat opposite Wang Qiushui and said, "Well, let's eat. I'm very hungry. I've been moving things all day."

Wang Qiushui picked up Kuaizi and saw that there was actually a sausage on top of the rice. She picked it up and took a bite, "Sweet?"

He nodded, "Yes, Cantonese-style sausages are all sweet."

Wang Qiushui chewed the sausage a few times and swallowed it. "It's a heresy that there are sweet sausages."

He nodded again, "You're right. Since you're a Salty Party member, you definitely won't be able to eat this sausage. Just let me do it. By the way, you probably won't be able to eat the next meal either. Let's give it to you. Let me cook something new for you." As he said this, he reached over to get Wang Qiushui's bowl.

Wang Qiushui picked up the bowl first, "Is the rice sweet too?"

He took his hand back and said, "Yes, because the sausage is steamed together with the rice, which saves some effort and gas. At the same time, the aroma and oil of the sausage will slowly flow out and be absorbed by the rice. In this way, the rice will have the flavor of sausage. So, if you are not used to it, I will eat an extra portion and you can just wait a little longer."

Wang Qiushui picked up the sausage again and took a bite, "Who said I can't get used to it? Besides, if you cook it again, wouldn't I have to watch you eat it? That would be cruel."

He smiled and said, "Why do I think it is more cruel to force salty people to eat sweets? I thought you didn't care about this. I wish I had asked you just now."

Wang Qiushui took another mouthful of rice at this time and said, "Well, it smells so good. The rice is filled with the aroma of sausage. Moreover, it actually doesn't feel so unacceptable to eat. I even feel so happy now."

He also took a bite of the sausage, "Well, maybe it's because of the sweetness. Because sweetness can stimulate the body's dopamine secretion and make people happy. So, when you are unhappy, you can eat some sweets."

Wang Qiushui paused for a moment, "There are no sweets anywhere now, not even snacks."

He smiled and said, "It's okay. There is a convenience store further down the street from the restaurant. There should be a lot of snacks in it. Of course, that's assuming it hasn't been raided by anyone."

Wang Qiushui said quickly, "Okay, then our goal tomorrow is the convenience store. I want to move all the snacks there."

After he swallowed the food, he said, "You are too greedy. Besides, eating too many snacks will make you gain weight."

Wang Qiushui thought for a while, "Don't be afraid, I won't be fat. Besides, with the amount of exercise we do every day, let alone gain weight, it will be good if we don't lose weight."

He nodded, "That's true. You exercise more than me. Eat more. Bacon and fish are both good. Don't worry, they are both salty."

Wang Qiushui took a piece of each and tried it, "Well, it's so delicious. Fortunately, I met you, otherwise I wouldn't be able to cook it even if I got these ingredients. By the way, why didn't I see the ham?"

He shook his head, "The ham is too difficult to cut, and there's not enough time, so I won't do it today."

Wang Qiushui picked up another piece of boiled carrot and said, "That's it, let me try this." Then her face turned ugly, but she still managed to swallow it.

He was speechless, "Actually, if you can't eat it, you can spit it out. There's no need to force yourself."

After all, these carrots are not fresh anymore, so they definitely won’t taste any better.

Wang Qiushui shook his head, "It's wrong to waste food, and it's also disrespectful to the chef. Besides, I fought for this carrot with my life, so of course I have to eat it."

He smiled and said, "It's okay, the carrots are all here, so you don't have to eat them anymore. We can eat potatoes, they are still fresh."

Wang Qiushui smiled and said, "Then you can eat potatoes cooked in different ways every day?"

He responded, "There's nothing we can do about it. We only have potatoes. It's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice."

Wang Qiushui smiled even more happily, "Are you a clever woman or a clever husband?"

He thought for a while, "Anyway, now you are responsible for fighting and I am responsible for cooking. There is nothing wrong with being a clever woman."

The breeze blew in from the window, and the candlelight swayed, bringing a ray of light to the room.
