Chapter 31(1/2)

Mu Zixi raised his head and forced the tears in his eyes back.

Then, she discovered her unfamiliar movements in the world. She held a spatula in one hand and a cell phone in the other, looking at this place and there with her eyes. Mu Zixi took a breath and remembered a thought-provoking question: Can Xiao Jin cook?

She stepped forward in three steps and opened the kitchen door.

Xiao Jin turned around, hurriedly grabbed a rag and wiped it on the marble countertop, pretending to be calm and said, "It's almost done, just go out and wait."

Mu Zixi glanced at the remaining leaves of ingredients on the countertop, as well as the water traces around the vegetable sink, and the potatoes cut into irregular pieces that had not yet been poured into the pot on the counter.

A trace of sorrow climbed up the wooden pillow stream's eyebrows.

There was already a dish filled with dishes, and the fragrance came from the dish. Mu Zixi pulled a pair of chopsticks from the chopsticks and asked, "Can I try it?"

Xiao Jin looked nervous and nodded.

This may be her first time cooking.

Mu Zixi picked up a chopstick and dried bamboo shoots without any hope and put them into his mouth.

Xiao Jin was so nervous that he couldn't even care about the pot. He stared at her expression without blinking: "How is it?"

Mu Zixi cast an incredible look at her.

Xiao Jin: "Is it delicious?" She actually tasted it when she was out of the pot. It was not as delicious as Mu Zixi, but it could barely be eaten.

Mu Zixi swallowed the dried bamboo shoots and said sincerely: "It's not bad."

Xiao Jin breathed a sigh of relief and continued to deal with the ingredients in the pot according to the recipes on his mobile phone.

Mu Zixi picked another chopstick to try the meat. The meat was cut a bit thick. In addition, it was smooth and elastic at the mouth. Mu Zixi handed over the kitchen to Xiao Jin and went out in a messy way.

Xiao Jin can actually cook?

Mu Zixi thought of something and walked back: "Has the rice been cooked?"

I remember when Xiao Jin was cooking for the first time, he made the ingredients messy, and everything that should be braised was burnt, and everything that should be cooked was burned. He even forgot to cook the rice. When he was reminded, he asked her how to cook rice. In the end, Mu Zhenxi rushed her out of the kitchen.

Now Xiao Jin looked at her calmly and said, "It's cooked, it's in the rice cooker."

Muzhaixi: "!!!"

She squinted her eyes, and didn't even feel relieved when she saw the lit insulation button. She opened the lid of the rice cooker and knocked it. The rice was crystal clear, the particles were full, and there was no more or less water.

Mu Zhenxi was completely speechless. He went to the living room to wait for dinner, and he felt like he was in a dream.

"It's time to eat." Xiao Jin brought the vegetables out. Mu Zhenxi got up to help when he heard the sound. The four dishes were served together. The two of them served the meat with dried bamboo shoots, garlic okra, double onion and tenderloin, and the last one was seaweed egg flower soup.

"Why did you think of cooking?" Mu Zhenxi placed the bowls and chopsticks and looked at Xiao Jin opposite him.

"I feel that I'm idle at home and I'm just finding something to do."

"You..." Mu Zixi paused and said, "Didn't you know how to cook before?"

Xiao Jin smiled: "I don't know either. Maybe I learned it later. Cutting vegetables is a bit difficult, but it's easier to put the pot. Besides, there are recipes, so it's not very difficult."

Mu Zixi nodded and served himself a bowl of soup.

Xiao Jin's eyes were staring at her drinking soup without any moment, and Mu Zhenxi looked at her and felt uncomfortable.

Xiao Jin explained embarrassedly: "I just hope to get feedback."

Mu Zixi took a sip and said to the truth: "It's a bit salty."

Xiao Jin: "Then I'll put less salt next time."

When Mu Zixi heard this, he put down the spoon and made a slight bump on the edge of the bowl, saying, "You don't have to cook."

Xiao Jin was injured: "Do you think I'm not delicious?"

Muzhaixi: “…No.”

Xiao Jin said: "Then let me do it, I'll just do it."

"No." Mu Zhenxi frowned and said, "You are just a daughter of a thousand gold. What are the bad things to do? What do you do with such rough work? What do you want to eat? Just hire a nanny to do it."

Xiao Jin was particularly displeased by what she said. He ignored the awkward kindness in her tone and yelled back: "What's wrong with Miss Qianjin? Miss Qianjin can't cook. As you said, Miss Qianjin can reach out to eat and open her mouth. I'll hire someone to help me put on my clothes?"

Muzhaixi: "…"

That's not what she meant.

Forget it, I can't tell her. Besides, Xiao Jin has to lose his temper, bow his head and have a meal.

She refused to respond, and Xiao Jin calmed down herself, secretly annoyed that she had been too much again. Mu Zixi wouldn't be angry, right? She secretly looked at her with her eyes and Mu Zixi's eyebrows were quiet, as if she was not angry.

Muzixi has little appetite, and the bowls at home are not large in size. Usually, you can add a flat bowl to serve rice, and occasionally you have to reduce the meal speed. The dining speed is controlled within a fixed time.

Xiao Jin secretly looked at his watch and found that the prescribed time had come, and there was still half a bowl of rice left in Muzixi bowl. She observed quietly for a while and found that the rice in the other party's bowl was compacted, and it seemed that there was only one flat bowl, but in fact it was half more.

Mu Zixi suddenly looked at her: "You seem to be laughing?"

Xiao Jin quickly pressed down the corner of his mouth, saying, "No."

Mu Zhenxi picked up a chopstick and ate it with the rice. In fact, she was already full, but she still wanted to eat more. Xiao Jin went to the kitchen herself and counted down the number of times.

After dinner, Xiao Jin went to clean up the dishes and was stopped by Mu Zixi: "If you cook normally, you wash the dishes. If you cook today, I will wash the dishes."

Xiao Jin and she looked at each other for two seconds and let go of their hands.

Mu Zixi put the bowls and chopsticks into the kitchen and skillfully released the water.

Xiao Jin stood at the door and looked at her back, thought about it for a while, and slowly started to laugh.

This should be the same for ordinary couples, even couples?

She was in a good mood all night and couldn't help but hum a song in front of Mu Zhixi. That night in the hospital, Mu Zhixi sang the theme song "True Love" of "The Prince Turns into a Frog" to her, and hummed in a low voice, "Give me more clips, piece together unknown accidents, lose the original love of memory." She looked at Mu Zhixi who was mopping the floor. Mu Zhixi met her eyes, freeze in the air for three seconds, and moved away.

Xiao Jin did not miss the smile that flashed across the corner of her lips.

Xiao Jin did not read a book for the first time, turned on the TV, searched for "The Prince Turns into a Frog", and watched it from the first episode. The familiar theme song came into his ears, Mu Zixi looked up speechlessly, and Xiao Jin sat on the sofa holding the pillow in both hands, looking at the TV screen with expectant expressions.

What a kid.

Twenty minutes later, Mu Zixi finished mopping the floor, washed the mop, took away the empty fruit plates on the table, washed a plate of cherries, put them on the coffee table, took two bags of melon seeds, and handed them to Xiao Jin a bag.

Xiao Jin: "Hahaha."

Muzhaixi: "Shut up."

Xiao Jin was so kind that he even covered his mouth, but he still showed a pair of curved smiles.

Mu Zixi could only pretend that he could not see her.

The two watched three episodes of TV series together. Xiao Jin ate all the cherries, Mu Zixi ate only two, then cleaned up two trash cans, put them on new garbage bags, and threw them out tomorrow.

Xiao Jin wants to continue watching the fourth episode, but was stopped by Mu Zixi: "Go and take a shower and go to bed."

Xiao Jin got good feedback from Mu Zixi today, and he was a little swollen. He lay on the sofa, rolled around because of his own weight, and said coquettishly: "I'll watch another episode. Shan Junhao just lost his memory and was so exciting."

Mu Zixi refused mercilessly and said, "No, you can wait for tomorrow to be more exciting."

Xiao Jin looked at the distance from the sofa to the ground and carefully rolled from the sofa to the ground.

"I'll watch another episode and take a shower after watching it, I promise."

Muzhaixi: "…"

She thought absurdly: Is she a rogue?

Xiao Jin rolled twice, Mu Zixi was unmoved. She got up from the ground embarrassedly, patted her body, and settled down to discuss terms with Mu Zixi: "I'll see tomorrow, are you still with me?"

Mu Zixi had a stern face: "I will draw tomorrow night."

Xiao Jin drooped his ears and went back to the room in shame to get his pajamas.

Mu Zixi waited until she could no longer see her back before laughing softly.

The next night, Mu Zhenxi, who claimed to be painting, accompanied Xiao Jin to watch two TV series. The two of them discussed Ye Tianyu's deception. Mu Zhenxi felt that she should not have deceived her family with her family for her own selfish desires, and deception itself was wrong. Xiao Jin felt that the other party was a stopgap and was understandable. The ending proved that she got the desired result in the end, and everyone was happy.

Mu Zhenxi said that this is a TV series. The two of them are not from the same world. It is like a fairy tale that only describes the princess and the prince living happily together, but does not write about the story of the prince and the princess in the future. The prince and the princess are like this, let alone the princes and ordinary people.

Xiao Jin argued that there was Cinderella, how do you explain? Mu Zhenxi smiled: Cinderella was originally aristocrat, and both of her sisters could attend the dance party. Because she was not favored, she was not from a humble background.

Xiao Jin said you went off topic, obviously talking about deception, but why did you get involved in class? Mu Zhenxi said I didn’t go off topic. Ye Tianyu not only had a huge difference in family background and the other party, but also deceived the other party. This could not happen in the real world.

Xiao Jin frowned and said: You are too realistic.

Mu Zixi smiled and said: You are obviously too romantic, but you still believe in what you play in the TV series.

Xiao Jin looked a little angry, and Mu Zhenxi stopped talking. He picked up the teacup and drank water, stood up and said, "I'll go back to the study."

Xiao Jin smashed the pillow on the sofa.

The night was unhappy, and the next morning, it seemed that I forgot about this little episode. Mu Zhenxi knocked on Xiao Jin's door as agreed and called her out for a run. In order to avoid running together, she went out for a step first. Xiao Jin went out later. Mu Zhenxi did not run around, so she basically never met the other person in the morning running. She went home, took turns taking a shower, and then went out for breakfast.

She went to the soup noodle shop. Xiao Jin's education since childhood made her unable to suck like others very naturally, but she would occasionally make a little noise. Today, she realized that the side dishes in her bowl were different from those in Muzixi. She put a bunch of sour beans, pickles, dried radish, shredded ginger, etc. in her bowl. There was basically nothing else in her bowl except shredded kelp, peanuts and vegetables.

Mu Zhenxi glanced at her lightly and said, "You are picky about food, don't you know what you think?"

Xiao Jin smiled with a smile on his lips.

She knew, but she just wanted to hear Mu Zixi say it in person, which shows that Mu Zixi still remembers these details.

On the way home, Mu Zhenxi answered a call. She glanced at Xiao Jin and did not avoid her, and her expression became more serious.
