"Wake the lady up... Wake the lady up... Wake the lady up..." 2569’s voice was so quiet that Du Xixi couldn’t quite make out what it was mumbling.
But as soon as 2569 heard movement and lifted its head to see Du Xixi already coming downstairs, she clearly heard 2569 exclaiming loudly, "The lady woke up herself!"
Du Xixi couldn’t help but chuckle. She glanced at the pitiful little expression on 2569’s electronic screen and speculated, "What’s up? Did your Marshal instruct you to wake me up at a certain time?"
Du Xixi wasn’t silly. Although 2569 could mumble anything when it short-circuited, it rarely short-circuits now and even shows true butler robot abilities in front of the children, so 2569’s "nonsense" mumbling was quite unusual.
Du Xixi heard that shout from 2569 loud and clear, and she almost guessed it right away. It was likely Ke Lian or Ke Xing who instructed 2569 to wake her up for streaming on time.
Since Ke Xing is busy taking care of the kids, it’s more likely that it was Ke Lian’s thoughtful instruction.
"Yes! The sir told me to wake you up when the streaming time is near! He said if you’re late for streaming, you’d be displeased!"
Understanding Ke Lian knows her well, Du Xixi softened her gaze, even finding the silly 2569 adorable. She patted 2569’s furry head and said, "2569, you’ve completed the task your master gave you. How about taking on my task?"
"Please instruct!" 2569 was still a bit "childish." Hearing Du Xixi coaxing it , it happily slid in two circles around her, then eagerly lifted its electronic screen, with its previously pitiful expression turning into twinkling stars.
Du Xixi coughed, truly curious about who input so many elderly emoticons into 2569’s system library, but it was undeniably cute. She said, "The meal I’m making today needs your great help! Remember to clean your mechanical hands thoroughly in a bit." ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ N()velFire.net
2569’s mechanical hands could clean themselves, and having helped Du Xixi clean ingredients so many times, it was quite familiar with this step.
It smoothly glided into the kitchen, and while Du Xixi put on her apron, it had already turned on the faucet, placing the washable mechanical hands under the stream for a thorough rinse.
Du Xixi watched intently, discovering that 2569 was meticulously performing the seven-step handwashing method, step by step, just like she had seen on Blue Star before.
But based on her memory, Blue Star Empire and Star Era didn’t seem to emphasize this handwashing method. Isn’t there already the most advanced sterile cleaning technology here?
"2569, who taught you this?" Du Xixi curiously walked over to 2569, observing its careful circle motions over its other mechanical hand, showing intent to spin every corner several times, she couldn’t help but smile.
Du Xixi could confirm she had never used the seven-step handwashing method in front of 2569, never even mentioned it. So where did 2569 learn it? Could the Cultural Relics Bureau have dug up the handwashing method along with the recipes?
lifted its head, but its hand movements didn’t stop, even switching to the other mechanical hand to continue washing. It replied blankly, "Madam, it was Rob who taught me! He said making food requires the cleanest and safest environment, so he taught me this seven-step handwashing method, instructing me to assist you and to clean up before cooking myself."
"Washing hands properly is indeed a good habit. Rob taught you well." Rob once spent time with 2569, and Du Xixi naturally didn’t pay attention to how two non-humans communicated, but it seems Rob taught 2569 quite a bit during that time.
See, even the seven-step handwashing method was discreetly taught under Du Xixi’s nose! As for where Rob learned it, Du Xixi didn’t plan to probe further.
Not to mention 2569 possibly doesn’t know, but this seven-step handwashing method isn’t some highly advanced patented invention.
It was originally developed for maintaining hygiene, and in the Star Era, talent isn’t scarce. By chance, they might have similarly developed a seven-step handwashing method!
