Eating melons

Chapter 330 Is It Spicy?

To be honest, Wei Wei still doesn't really like doing kitchen work.

However, although she would be lazy and do a little less work, she would also do a little more to make up for the work she did less. It was not purely cheating.

I know that although these people love to eat and like spicy food, none of them can handle spicy food very well.

Therefore, Jiang Qi still held back when cooking. Although he added a lot of chili peppers, they were all non-spicy chili pepper segments. They were just for adding color. They only looked spicy, but they were not spicy at all.

After the non-spicy chili segments are fried, you can only taste the aroma instead of the spiciness.

But Wu Mei, who was helping here, swallowed after seeing the chili peppers in the pot, looked at Jiang Qi, but still said nothing.

But in her heart she felt that she couldn't eat this dish. It wasn't that she couldn't eat it, or that she didn't want to eat it, but that she didn't dare to eat it. She was afraid that her stomach couldn't bear it.

Jiang Qi's attention was all on the pot, so naturally he didn't notice Wu Mei's hesitation to speak, nor did he notice her worry.

The dish was almost ready. He put it into a small pot, sprinkled a handful of sesame seeds on it, and said to Wu Mei,

"This is ready. You can take it over and put it on the stove in my room to warm it up. I'll mix it with some kelp shreds."

After saying that, he started to cut the kelp into shreds. The kelp had been soaked there a long time ago, but the kelp was in pieces. If you want to eat it mixed with other ingredients, you still have to cut it into shreds.

Looking at the red and fragrant so-called dry pot rabbit cubes in the small pot, Wu Mei swallowed her saliva at the aroma.

It's not that she's afraid, it's that she's greedy. It looks red and scary, but when she smells the fragrance, Wu Mei feels like she's okay again.

Her stomach has always been fine. Before, when she ate spicy food, her mouth would only hurt a little, but her stomach never hurt.

Now when she thinks back to the time when she ate spicy food and how painful it was in her mouth, it doesn’t seem that painful at all, so she should be able to withstand this kind of spiciness!

The people who were stewing chicken over there took a deep breath when they saw the big red pot.

How much chili did Jiang Qi put in? The fried potatoes were already red, and they were a little discouraged.

But when they got closer and smelled the fragrance, they felt it was okay again.

They just eat a little bit. Their stomach's tolerance to spicy food has increased a lot, so their stomach should be able to handle it if they eat a little.

It was almost time for dinner, and Wei Wei's staple food was ready. Wei Wei secretly took out seven bottles of Beibingyang soda.

Anyway, with those two big packages and two more trips to the county, they brought back a lot of things.

No one else knew what they bought or what they had, not even Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin.

So no one would find it strange if she took out the Beibingyang soda. There was only one person who knew the truth, and that was Jiang Qi.

When Liu Jiaojiao saw the Beibingyang soda in Wei Wei's hand, her eyes lit up.

"Did you two buy this when you went to the county some time ago? No wonder you two had to carry a backpack to the county after your families sent so many things back."

Just because Wei Wei and Jiang Qi were carrying a big backpack, Wu Mei and Liu Jiaojiao couldn't go to the county.

Because Yu Xi had something to do that day and Yu Xi went to the town, Yu Xi's bicycle was taken away by him.

Wu Mei and Liu Jiaojiao wanted to ride on Wei Wei and Jiang Qi's bicycles, but Wei Wei and Jiang Qi each carried a large backpack, making it difficult for them to sit.

If they were asked to sit in the front, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi would not be able to ride the bike.

Let them sit in the back and carry Wei Wei and Jiang Qi's backpacks, or let Wei Wei and Jiang Qi sit in the back.

But Wei Wei and Jiang Qi must have a lot of things to buy since they were carrying such a big backpack. If they carried another person, they would definitely not be able to ride back, so they had to give up.

Originally, Liu Jiaojiao wanted to buy a bicycle for herself, but after hearing what Xiao Xuemu, Li Zhibin and Yu Xi said, and seeing that Wei Wei and Jiang Qi didn't buy one, she suppressed her thoughts and didn't buy it.

Wei Wei nodded and said, "I bought quite a lot. I still have a few bottles. If you want more, just take them."

Hearing this, Liu Jiaojiao's eyes brightened up a little more, "Okay, thank you Weiwei."

Although Wei Wei said to take it, she couldn't just ask for it for free, so the money still had to be paid.

Wei Wei just happened to think so too. This was not the handmade soap she mentioned that she could make herself. This thing could not be made by herself, so she could only buy it, and it was not cheap.

Therefore, she did not tell Wu Mei about it, because Wu Mei definitely could not afford that money.

Besides, Wu Mei would not accept it, and she also knew that Liu Jiaojiao would definitely give her the money, so there was no need to ask Wu Mei.

As soon as Wei Wei entered the room and saw the dry-pot rabbit on the small stove behind the table, her eyes lit up. It had been a long time since she had tasted Jiang Qi's cooking.

For Wei Wei, Jiang Qi's cooking would make her crave for it if she didn't eat it for three days, not to mention that she hadn't eaten it for nearly half a month.

"Wow, Jiang Qi's cooking skills are getting better and better. This is so delicious and tasty."

Wei Wei’s favorite is this kind of fragrant, spicy and numb thing, and Jiang Qi also likes it.

Unfortunately, Jiang Qi's original body was from Shanghai. Although he could eat spicy food, he ate less, so he couldn't eat that much.

Although Jiang Qi has trained her this year and she can eat much spicier food than before, she is still not as good as Wei Wei.

Because Wei Wei’s original owner was from Hunan Province and could also eat spicy food.

In addition, as long as the conditions are right, Wei Wei will never lack food to eat.

Before she had the means, Wei Wei spent all the little money she had on food, not to mention that now that she has money, she is a person who will never treat herself badly.

After the two recognized each other, one had money and things, and the other had skills. Their life could be said to be like that of a god, no worse than that of later generations.

It’s just that you have to eat it secretly, not as openly as in later generations.

With Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin providing cover, there was no need to be sneaky.

Unless there were some things that were not available in this era, the two of them had to eat secretly. Generally speaking, Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin could get them whatever they wanted.

Once, Wei Wei said she wanted to eat beef, but because it was winter, Xiao Xuemu couldn't take it out. But as soon as the beef thawed, Xiao Xuemu came back with more than ten pounds of beef.

Wei Wei even joked that Xiao Xuemu might have done something illegal, because the cows at this time could not be slaughtered casually.

Xiao Xuemu directly said that this was bison meat, but it was indeed bison meat, but it was fed in Xiao Xuemu's space. He fed a lot of cows in his space.

Although he only fed them for two years, the time inside was twice as long as outside. It was four years in the space, and they had bred several rounds, so there were still quite a few cows inside.

There were even water buffaloes, which he had secretly bought when he went to visit relatives in Yunnan Province.

Although he had domesticated cattle of this kind in his space, he was afraid that Wei Wei and Jiang Qi would be able to tell the difference between the two types of beef. After all, these two people were quite picky eaters.

As soon as the dishes were served, the meal began quickly. Wei Wei had a clear goal and reached into the bowl of dry pot rabbit with her chopsticks.

Because the meal was already served, there was no need to worry about the food getting cold, so the dry pot rabbit was served in a bowl.

As for why it was a basin instead of a bowl, it was because the two rabbits and a lot of potatoes were quite large and an ordinary bowl could not hold them all.

As soon as Wei Wei put the dish in her mouth, she felt something was wrong. The dish was delicious in color, aroma and taste.

It looks very red, so it should be very spicy, but the taste is wrong once you put it in your mouth. It is fragrant and numb, but not spicy at all.

It's a little spicy, but to Wei Wei, it's the same as if there wasn't any spiciness at all.

Wei Wei looked at Jiang Qi, "Doesn't this smell a little off?"

Jiang Qi also took a piece and tasted it. "Nothing wrong?"

Jiang Qi suddenly realized something and explained:

"Wei was afraid they couldn't handle it, so he didn't add that much spice."

After hearing this, Wei Wei also reacted. She had forgotten that they were not having a meal together.

The main reason was that she had gotten used to eating spicy food in the past two days, so she felt a little uncomfortable when she saw the non-spicy chili segments. She even thought Jiang Qi had put the wrong chili segments in.

As for why the food has been so spicy these past two days, the main reason has to do with Li Zhibin and Wei Wei.

Li Zhibin provoked Wei Wei again some time ago, and then Wei Wei took over the task of cooking and unilaterally broke up with Li Zhibin and Xiao Xuemu.

The dishes served every day are a combination of Sichuan and Hunan cuisine, which are both spicy and numbing.

But it’s okay that the dish is cooked like this, because Jiang Qi also likes it, and they both enjoy it very much.

Xiao Xuemu knew that Wei Wei was cooking, so he came to eat no matter what.

Because Xiao Xuemu knew how lazy Wei Wei was, he rarely cooked for her, and it was a rare opportunity to eat the food cooked by Wei Wei.

The one who was eating it was grinning, but he still had to eat it.

But I have to say that the dish is spicy, but it goes really well with rice and is very delicious.

Not to mention that Xiao Xuemu has liked spicy food since he came here. Although the food is very spicy, he is also very addicted to it.

Li Zhibin was the same. When he saw Xiao Xuemu and Jiang Qi eating here, he didn't want to eat alone, so he also came over to eat.

Therefore, when Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin were eating during this period, they were both grimacing and sweating profusely.

Seeing the two of them like this, Wei Wei did not change her mind at all. She always cooked Sichuan and Hunan cuisine, either alternating them or mixing them together.

After all, if Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin couldn't finish it, they could make it themselves. It wasn't like she wanted to eat with them. It was the two of them who asked her to eat with them.

Not to mention that she was the one who cooked, and Jiang Qi was the one who helped. Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin just ate the ready-made food, and they just washed the dishes.

Wei Wei has been cooking during this period of time. As soon as Jiang Qi started cooking today, Wei Wei looked forward to it.

So when Wei Wei saw the bright red dry pot spicy rabbit cubes, she thought it would be spicy. But when she took a bite, it was not even slightly spicy.

But Wei Wei didn't say anything. After all, it was a dinner party, and the food couldn't be prepared according to her taste. It had to be prepared according to the public's taste. If she wanted spicy food, she could just make it herself.

Therefore, I gave Jiang Qi a thumbs up and said, "It is also very fragrant, crispy and delicious."

When Li Zhibin heard Wei Wei say that it was not spicy, he was a little unconvinced and picked up a piece to taste it.

Li Zhibin was a little unsure of his taste buds. Had Wei Wei trained him these past few days? Why couldn't he feel the spiciness of such a terrifying spicy rabbit? So he nudged Xiao Xuemu's arm.

"Has Wei Wei forced my sense of taste to become unbalanced these past few days?"

Xiao Xuemu glanced at Li Zhibin with disdain and said, "If you are sick, go get treatment, or take medicine."

Xiao Xuemu learned this from Jiang Qi and Wei Wei, and Wei Wei and Jiang Qi usually say this to Li Zhibin. There's nothing they can do about it, since Li Zhibin always acts like that no matter what.

Even after being criticized, Li Zhibin was not angry. It should be said that he was used to it.

"It's true. I can't taste the spiciness of this dish even though it looks so spicy."

Xiao Xuemu rolled his eyes at him and asked, "Is this your first time eating non-spicy peppers?"

Li Zhibin reacted after being reminded by Xiao Xuemu.

Wei Wei had been yelling at him so much these days that he had forgotten that they also had less spicy pepper segments.

He had forgotten that not all peppers are as spicy as the ones Wei Wei had made these days.

Li Zhibin on this side was tortured to the point of doubting his life, while Yu Xi, Liu Jiao and Wu Mei's eyes lit up when they heard their words, and they immediately stretched out their chopsticks to the pot of dry pot rabbit.

They didn't know what Li Zhibin and Xiao Xuemu had experienced during this period, but in their impression, Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin could tolerate spicy food to the same extent as they did.

So since Li Zhibin didn’t think it was spicy, it probably wasn’t spicy for them either.

But as soon as the three of them took a bite, they felt the spiciness and began to doubt what Li Zhibin said. What did he mean by "not spicy"? It was obviously quite spicy.

However, the spiciness is still bearable for them, it’s just right.

If it were any spicier, they would have been unable to bear it. This level of spiciness was just right, delicious and refreshing. The three of them unconsciously quickened the pace of picking up their chopsticks.

Unlike Li Zhibin, Xiao Xuemu, Jiang Qi and Wei Wei on the side, the four of them are very common to this and eat it whenever they have the chance.

For Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin, after half a month of torture, this level of spiciness is no longer spicy enough for them. It would be better if it were a little spicier.

For Wei Wei and Jiang Qi, the rabbit bite was not as attractive to them as the potatoes inside and the plate of wild vegetables.

Although they are not love-brained, they like wild vegetables very much.

They may not be interested in digging wild vegetables, but they still like eating them very much.

Now they are just waiting for Wu Mei to go up the mountain and get more of these things, they want to eat them.

Originally, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi were planning to go to the place where they had picked wild vegetables last year to pick wild vegetables in the spring. After all, there were indeed a lot of wild vegetables there.

But after what they experienced in the mountains today, they have lost a lot of interest in picking wild vegetables.

I will probably go there again after a while, but at least not during this period. I'd better wait until the memory fades a little.
