Escape: I rely on the food exchange system to survive to the extreme

Chapter 31 New chef takes office
It was not convenient to cook on the ship, but now before going to bed, Mei Qian was asked by her mother to cook for a stranger, which made Mei Qian's mood even worse.

Even Mei Qian was shocked that Mrs. Mei, who had always been stingy, actually agreed to get food for the other party without any conditions.

Is her mother just looking at the dishes?

But even so, Mei Qian couldn't bear to take out food from her own ration bag.

Li Baizhou looked at Mei Qian taking a small handful of wild vegetables and a small bowl of flour, and couldn't help but ask: "Just give me this?"

"What's wrong, can't you eat it? And not only you will eat these, but my father and brother will also eat them."

After Mei Qian finished speaking, Li Baizhou fell into silence looking at all the food in Mei Qian's small palms.

Mei Qian probably knew what he was silent about, but she didn't care. After putting down the ingredients in her hands, Mei Qian took out the reeds with roots and cut off the roots.

Previously, her mother said that the roots of reeds can also be eaten. If you are old, you can boil them in water, or just throw them in your mouth and chew them as a snack.

She planned to wash herself off and boil some water to drink later.

"What are you doing with this?"

Li Baizhou looked at Mei Qian's actions curiously, like a curious baby.

"I'll eat the wild vegetables later."

Mei Qian turned to answer Li Baizhou. Seeing him standing there with nothing to do, she pushed the small stove on the boat in front of him and said, "You, make a fire."

"Okay, but what is that wild vegetable paste?"

"It's just wild vegetables cooked in batter soup."

"That's right, I thought you were going to make steamed rice noodles."

"Huh? Steamed rice noodles?"

Mei Qian, who was peeling reed roots, suddenly turned around and faced Li Baizhou, who was lighting a fire with a fire stick, and asked, "How do you make this steamed vegetable with rice noodles?"

"Toss vegetables with flour and steam them in a pot, then pour hot oil and mix with salt."

As he spoke, Li Baizhou took the Qianqu Cai next to Mei Qian in his hand, smelled it carefully, and said, "But your dish smells a bit bitter. You can blanch it in advance, then wrap it in flour and steam it." .”

After Li Baizhou finished speaking, Mei Qian seemed to have discovered some big treasure, staring at him with bright eyes, which shocked him.

"Why are you looking at me like this?"

"Can you cook?"

Mei Qian asked this question without answering Li Baizhou's words.

Li Baizhou nodded slowly as he listened, and saw Mei Qian looking at him more and more eagerly, as if she had seen something treasure.

Then he saw Mei Qian and immediately decided: "Then you do it today! I'll help you~"

Li Baizhou:? ? ?

Without any intention of asking for his opinion, Mei Qian pushed the wild vegetable flour directly in front of Li Baizhou.

Facing the other person's expectant eyes, Li Baizhou found that he couldn't refuse the person in front of him.

However, when his eyes fell on the pitiful handful of qianqucai and the small bowl of flour, he was a little embarrassed.

"No salt and oil?"

"Only salt, oil..." Mei Qian thought of her half piece of Lulu meat with a high oil content, but this meal also included compressed biscuit powder. Lulu meat would be too luxurious, right? !

Mei You, a little master of calculation, decided to shake his head and firmly deny the existence of oil.

"salt……"

Hearing what Mei Qian said, Li Baizhou glanced at the inconspicuous gray-yellow rough block crystal next to Mei Qian's hand. When he met Mei Qian's sincere eyes, he fell silent.

Seeing Li Baizhou stand up suddenly, Mei Qian was stunned for a moment. She didn't know what the other person was doing suddenly, but soon she looked at him and didn't know when he actually put the baggage he was carrying at her home. On the donkey!

He also took something wrapped in oil paper from the bundle and said to Mei Qian, "I still have some salt here."

Hearing what the other party said, Mei Qian suddenly remembered to look at the fire folder next to the small stove that was lit on the side.

This fire seal was not found by her father in the hut, but seemed to be brought by the other party himself.

"What did you bring?"

After subconsciously asking the question, Mei Qian immediately regretted it. This somewhat involved people's privacy. If she were afraid, she wouldn't say it, right?

"Nothing, just some things that are useful in the wild."

Li Baizhou opened the oil paper, and Mei Qian took a closer look and found that he was actually carrying a bag of fine salt! It’s still that pure white fine salt.

"What the hell..."

This salt looks similar to the salt commonly eaten in later generations' families, but Mei Qian has rarely seen this kind of salt in her original memory, so this salt must be very expensive.

Mei Qian raised her head and looked at Li Baizhou again. When she realized that this man had actually come up with such a good thing, she showed a rare smile and said, "Then our family will provide the ingredients tonight, and you will provide the salt~"

Li Baizhou pursed his lips. It was not that he was dissatisfied with what Mei Qian said. It was just that he looked back and forth on the wild vegetables for a while, and then said: "How about we get some more, wait?" It might not be enough to eat.”

"No, our thick noodles are more filling than white noodles, and if you eat too much of these vegetables, they won't taste good. Let's just treat it as a temporary snack tonight~"

Of course, Mei Qian couldn't say that the ingredients in her house were "added", but it was obvious that Li Baizhou was doubtful of Mei Qian's words and still refused to take action.

"Oh, I'll boil some more water duck eggs in the water below later."

This is already Mei Qian's biggest concession.

After she finished speaking, Li Baizhou nodded and started cooking.

Mei Qian felt that this perspective of watching others cook was quite novel at first. Li Baizhou was just like what he said, he really knew how to cook.

Even because there was no steamer, Li Baizhou used the dagger he carried to build a temporary shelf with reeds for steaming wild vegetables.

When Mei Qian saw him taking out the dagger, she became convinced.

No wonder this man just threw the sword to her so easily. It turned out that there was a dagger close to him.

At this moment, Mei Qian felt lucky that her family did not express any ill intentions toward him.

It’s true these days, you can’t live without a dark heart.

It's too dark, and it's possible that you might get into trouble and get into trouble.

Mei Qian sighed as she thought about this, and unconsciously put the reed root that was originally intended to be used to boil water into her mouth and started chewing it.

"what are you eating?"

Mingming Mei Qian saw that the other party kept lowering her head while eating, but as a result, the other party noticed her every move of her mouth.

"Reed root, do you want to eat it? It's slightly sweet."

Mei Qian stretched out her hand and handed it to him, and Li Baizhou simply took it and began to eat it imitating Mei Qian's movements.

The reed roots are quite moist, and the juice inside has a slight sweetness. Although it is not outstanding, it is interesting to chew it when you are bored.

Under the moonlight, Mei Qian sat cross-legged at the stern of the boat, washing other fresh wild vegetables while secretly observing Li Baizhou.

Looking at his skillful cooking skills, Mei Qian had already begun to think about how to make him continue to cook.

After a while, the stern of the boat was filled with the aroma of rice, like the kind of food that is brought up by steam in the kitchen.

Mei Qian took a big sip and turned her eyes to the members of the Mei family who had been seduced by the scent at some point.

Mei Qian: 0.0
Mrs. Mei and everyone: =v=
Li Baizhou seemed to have expected this. He looked at the astonished Mei Qian and asked again: "Do you want to make one more serving?"

This time, Mei Qian nodded happily: "Yes!"

　Interested babies can search for "Qianqu Cai" on Du Niang. It is indeed a good food and medicine, but generally it can be used as medicine, but its taste is really hard to say~
