"Okay, okay, let's have a hammer fight. You can play with yourselves while I prepare the materials for tonight."
Gu Sanqiu clapped his hands, then picked up Xingqiu: "Come here and help me."
Qiqi, on the other hand, has been attracted by the flowers and plants in the courtyard, and is currently in a state of self-indulgence, so she doesn't need to worry about the other person.
"Hey, why should I be the one to attack you?"
Xingqiu struggled and was dragged into the kitchen by Gu Sanqiu, but he still honestly picked up the kitchen knife and prepared the ingredients for dinner.
There may be a lot of people here today, and if we don't call someone to help, we will be pressed for time.
But as for why I only carried one Xingqiu, it can only be said that there is a price for committing suicide.
Two kitchen knives were flying up and down in the kitchen, and Xingqiu used his divine eye to condense water spheres floating in the air. For tasks such as washing vegetables, he only needed to throw them in and let the vegetables pass through the water spheres.
Quite convenient.
Gu Sanqiu slapped the stove, and a large amount of ingredients that had been washed on it flew up instantly. Under a few rays of light, Xingqiu on the side was holding several plates and picking up the finely chopped ingredients in batches. OK, perfect fit.
Xingqiu sighed: "Tsk, I suddenly understand why when Xiangling was on duty at Wanmin Hall, Master Mao had no intention of making big pot dishes. He is a serious chef, and his hands-on skills should be better than the two of us. "
"Xiang Ling mainly has a partner who gets along day and night. Guo Ba is very good at controlling fire. Even the chef of Xinyue Xuan in Liuliting can't compare."
As an acquired skill, fire will still be affected by status, but Guo Ba is different. For him, flame is the purest instinct.
Not to mention the simplest method of controlling fire for cooking, even using flames to create dishes that look like birds and beasts is no problem.
But to be honest, if authority is used in this way, it feels like a waste from any angle.
Considering that a certain demon god from Mondstadt is taking the lead in terms of "abuse of authority", this should not be a big deal.
As the demon god of stoves, I, Guo Ba, should be able to use my authority to cook. It should be considered a normal thing.
Besides, my knowledge has been greatly reduced. What is my authority?
"For Good Reasons"
Xingqiu cut up the mushrooms and said, "After all, these are all auxiliary ingredients. You couldn't have eaten the main ingredient today by yourself."
"You thought I was you."
Gu Sanqiu took out a huge box from the storage cabinet. After seeing this scene, Xingqiu couldn't help but look at the box.
"There is also a box in the storage cabinet, a refrigerator for low-temperature storage?"
"Well, I use elemental crystals as a power source. In addition to ensuring the freshness of the ingredients, I can also add an extra flavor, although it sounds wasteful."
"Ordinary elemental crystals are not very valuable, as long as you don't use too many precious elemental crystals as energy supplements."
Xingqiu stretched out his hand curiously: "Let me see what's inside. It must be a very precious ingredient for you to preserve it so well."
"That must be very precious."
Gu Sanqiu slapped Xingqiu's claws off with a slap: "You take care of the remaining dishes. It seems that there are a few more people outside. I'll go greet them."
"Go ahead, go ahead, don't just find a reason to run away from the kitchen."
Xingqiu waved his hand to Gu Sanqiu and continued to deal with the remaining accessories with a serious look on his face. Although he was the second young master of a large chamber of commerce, as a hero who traveled around the world all year round, Xingqiu's life skills were still very high.
But after half an hour, Gu Sanqiu still hadn't come back. Xingqiu couldn't help but wonder if this kid really ran away secretly, leaving him alone to handle the ingredients.
What a hateful Sanqiu!
Xingqiu washed his hands and went out, and then he saw three people sitting at the table, and Qiqi, who was holding coconut milk and dangling his calf.
"What are you doing?"
Xingqiu walked over and took a look at the card game on the table: "Why don't you play? Even if Patriarch Qiqi plays cards slower, it's not impossible to play."
Chongyun smiled bitterly: "We originally thought so, but then we encountered the dimensionality reduction blow from novice luck."
"Ancestor Qiqi doesn't understand the rules, but she can always put together a bunch of card types that she thinks are 'good-looking and pleasing to the eye', and then we are gone."???
Oh, I got it.
Xingqiu understood: "Then why did it stop again? Do you understand that everything you earn through luck must be returned?"
"Ahem, it's just about winning and losing. Playing between friends is nothing."
Wu Yuming Lei coughed: "But the person who came just now is Sanqiu's sister. Sanqiu was dragged into the room in the center as soon as she came out."
"We were too embarrassed to eavesdrop on the details, but the Qiqi Immortal said that she heard a very stern 'kneel down' from inside."
oh.
Xingqiu understood, and then sat down next to Qi Qi in a carefree manner.
"It's okay, it's just that Sanqiu has been taught a lesson. What a big deal. He sounds like he has been a good boy since he was a child. Let's play with ourselves and keep going!"
“Yo ho—the leader of this hall is making a grand appearance!”
Hu Tao and Keqing ran in holding hands: "Three autumns and three autumns, what delicious food are you going to treat us to today?"
Keqing's hand was gently pressed, indicating Hutao to take a look at the atmosphere in the courtyard first.
Xingqiu became Qiqi's dog-headed strategist, and the four children and one elder really had a lot of fun. Xin Yan and Xiang Ling also assumed the role of dog-headed strategist, but most of them were playing tricks on Chongyun and the others.
But that was not the case at the table next to them. Ning Guang, Zhong Li, Beidou and the special commissioner named Ye Lan, the four ultimate poker players, started playing the complex version of Liyue Millennium again.
Bai Zhu was looking at the flowers and yam and apple trees in the courtyard seriously. Guo Ba was jumping around, trying to reach Changsheng with his short hands.
On the contrary, Changsheng stretched and contracted. It looked like the rice cake was teasing Changsheng successfully, but in fact it was the little white snake teasing the stupid big guy below.
Behind Ning Guang, Gu Sanqiu held a teapot with a sad face and dejected heart. He had lost his status as the head of the family to the waiter in the shop.
"Oh, people are almost here."
Gu Sanqiu raised his head and glanced at the Overload Group that had just entered the door, then placed the teapot on a chair beside him.
"I'll prepare the main ingredients, and then everyone can start dinner."
Hu Tao ran over and hit Gu Sanqiu on the chest with her small fist: "Where are Grandma Ping and Teacher Yun? You didn't invite them, did you?"
"Yan Fei has already found a place to deal with it. There are too many cases to come here."
"Uncle Tian, I heard that Sister Huixin had several dinner parties with a former male classmate recently. The old man has been going crazy for the past two days. In addition to making suggestions for his daughter, he also has to investigate news about his classmates. He has no intention of coming.
Dinner together.”
"Yun Jin has work in the evening. Grandma Ping and Sister Gan Yu both said they were busy and asked us to have fun."
"I can't find where the others are. Anyway, all the people who can come here from Liyue Port are here."
Gan Yu might just be busy with work, but Grandma Ping didn't know for sure. Judging from the time when she borrowed the dust-cleaning bell, Grandma Ping seemed to have always known that Zhongli was wandering around in the world, and then they didn't see each other.
The bewildering behavior of immortals.
"Eh? Does Yun Jin have work at night?"
Hu Tao looked at Zhongli who was standing aside: "My hospitable Lord, you won't have to rush off to the theater later."
Zhongli openly admitted that he wanted to fish: "What the hall master said is reasonable. Mr. Yun's plays, whether old or new, are worth savoring carefully."
