After the empress transmigrated, she became the judge of the entertainment industry.

It doesn't matter whether we only played together or not, we played together anyway.

Ye Sanqing retracted his thoughts and smiled, "Then will you help me kill the fish?"

Although she could ask anyone for help at will, Sheng Luoxin seemed quite eager to participate in the activity.

“I might mess things up…” Sheng Luoxin said helplessly.

If he could cook, then Sheng Hanyu would probably never have achieved anything in the culinary field...

"It's alright. I'm here, it's okay to try," Ye Sanqing encouraged.

“Then…” Sheng Luoxin looked at her. Ye Sanqing seemed quite confident, which gave him some confidence as well.

He then thought that Sheng Hanyu was currently unable to move around easily, and it seemed that he could indeed do some things for her.

“Okay. I’ll help, but you have to tell me what to do.” After saying that, Sheng Luoxin looked at Ye Sanqing as if facing a formidable enemy.

"Okay." Ye Sanqing stood up.

"Are you getting ready?" Sheng Hanyu asked as they got into the car.

“First, I’m going to punch the fish,” Ye Sanqing nodded, pointing at the fish.

"So I'm just responsible for watching over things?" Sheng Luoxin asked.

"Huh?" Sheng Hanyu was quite surprised. It sounded like Sheng Luoxin was going to help.

He wasn't against it, but he felt that it was truly remarkable that Ye Sanqing could persuade Sheng Luoxin!

“You’re right,” Ye Sanqing told him. “Anyway, with me here, I can clean up any mess it gets into.”

Sheng Hanyu pointed to the chessboard on the table, "That's what you call an endgame."

"..." Ye Sanqing felt like he was telling a lame joke and was speechless.

"I won't cause any trouble for the Three Pure Ones..." Sheng Luoxin said immediately, not wanting Sheng Hanyu to worry.

“I didn’t think that way,” Sheng Hanyu shook her head. “Then you guys go ahead with your work, I’ll keep an eye on things.”

So Ye Sanqing knocked the fish unconscious with a single punch.

Of course, this method of killing the fish was completely unconventional, but the fish looked too tough, and Ye Sanqing felt that the conventional method of hitting its head with the back of a knife would not work.

As long as the fish meat isn't too tough, it's fine.

"Okay, then let's clean out the internal organs first..." Ye Sanqing said and started to work, showing no intention of letting Sheng Luoxin take over.

Sheng Luoxin and Sheng Hanyu exchanged a glance.

Sheng Hanyu explained, "This process is dangerous and can easily injure your hands."

Sheng Luoxin nodded.

He had watched fish being processed many times, but when he did it himself, he never even got to this step.

Of course, you could let someone else do the pre-processing while he just cooks, but no matter which step he does, it will fail for some inexplicable reason.

Ye Sanqing felt that it didn't matter if he failed, as long as he didn't get hurt, so after cleaning up his internal organs, he said, "You can try scaling the fish."

Sheng Hanyu immediately found a relatively safe small knife and gestured, "Put your hand here, apply force from this angle..."

Ye Sanqing saw that he had taken over the task and didn't say anything, then went to clean the fish's internal organs.

"Wow, it seems like it can work." Sheng Luoxin scraped off a small portion of the scale and exclaimed in amazement.

"Don't rush, be careful of the slippery surface, scrape slowly." Sheng Hanyu said, glancing at Ye Sanqing.

Ye Sanqing understood what he meant. If Sheng Luoxin could successfully handle the fish, it would mean that the attributes set on him were loosening.

Although it has been confirmed that the marriage incident did not lead to a coma, it would still be good to be a little more lenient.

"Okay... Is the fish alright now? Won't it get bad if I process it for too long?" Sheng Luoxin scraped for quite a while, but she finished without any unexpected problems.

“It’s alright, the sun has already set and it’s quite cool,” Sheng Hanyu said. “Besides, you’ve already done a great job.”

Such a big fish must have been chopped into pieces for braising or pan-frying. While it's certainly better to process it as quickly as possible, this short period of time won't matter.

"Yes, it's cleaned very well! Excellent. Should we make the fish head into soup? Or make fish head with chopped chili peppers?" Ye Sanqing asked.

"How about half and half?" Sheng Hanyu said, looking at the large fish head. "The kids can't eat spicy food, but they can drink the soup."

Will any of the recipes be repetitive?

"I'll differentiate the seasonings and side dishes to avoid repeating them."

“Okay, then…” Ye Sanqing looked at Sheng Luoxin, “Are you tired? Would you like to try cutting chili peppers? Or preparing other meats?”

"I actually succeeded... Oh, I'm not tired, is there anything else I can do?" Sheng Luoxin said in a daze.

Although it was a very small thing, he felt a great sense of accomplishment for no reason, as if something that had been holding him back had suddenly disappeared.

"How about marinating the chicken?" Sheng Hanyu suggested.

"Okay, you teach me."

So when the others returned, they saw this somewhat strange scene: Sheng Luoxin did something, and the other two started praising him, like they were coaxing a child.

It feels like the roles have been reversed...

But given Sheng Luoxin's image, everyone assumes he's someone who's never lifted a finger in the kitchen, so it's quite normal that he's clumsy at cooking.

"Why do I feel like the older brother... no, the uncle, is more like a child?" Xiaoyuan asked, puzzled.

She sensed it when they played together in the car, but couldn't quite put her finger on it. It was just that this handsome uncle seemed to play with them without revealing his age.

"Teacher Sheng is just not used to cooking," Xiao Ze explained.

"Let me see," Xiaoyuan said, then stood still and looked at them.

She suddenly thought of her parents. She was required to learn to cook when she was very young, but they didn't have this attitude. Instead, they had an attitude of "it's your duty to do well, and it's your fault if you don't do well."

Xiaoyuan also felt dazed, unsure whether it was envy or emptiness.

After all, Mom and Dad are gone... There's no use thinking about it now. Xiaoyuan shook her head and stepped forward to ask, "Can I help?"

“Xiaoyuan is back.” Sheng Hanyu nodded to her. “Could you help peel the garlic and wash the scallions and potatoes? But be careful not to get your hands in your eyes.”

"Okay!" Xiaoyuan felt useful and became happy, so she went to get the vegetables to wash.

"Sigh, even kids are more skilled at things than I am," Sheng Luoxin said, looking at Xiaoyuan.

"Actually, I'd rather she wasn't so skilled." Ye Sanqing noticed Xiao Yuan as soon as she returned, and could tell what she was thinking just by looking at her expression.

For Ye Sanqing, cooking is a pleasure, and also a practice for the variety show, but for Xiaoyuan, it may be a responsibility and an obligation... which is actually not good.

However, this kind of thing can't be accomplished with just a few words; it takes time.

“Yes. Afterwards, we need to make her feel that her work is valuable, just like yours,” Sheng Hanyu said to Sheng Luoxin.

"I'm just glad I'm not causing any trouble..."
