Chapter 192: Soft Rice, Eaten Hard
Lucia’s first job was far from the scene she had imagined.
She thought it would be a great profession of saving lives and healing the wounded, but the main thing she did was running errands like wiping tables and getting medicine.
After a day, although she didn’t do anything, she still worked hard.
When she got home, Lucia was like a salted fish that had been drained of all its strength, lying motionless on the sofa.
That expression, that posture, was exactly the same as Xia Li’s in the morning.
It is said that two people who have been together for a long time will have a ‘couple look’. Xia Li thought this was mysterious, but now it seems quite real.
“Tired?”
Xia Li walked over and put the ingredients he bought today on the floor.
“Not tired. ”
The evil dragon lying on the sofa closed her eyes, her mouth tougher than a dead duck.
“I used to work part-time in a cafe. The first few days were also tiring, and I would lie down when I got home… It wasn’t physical fatigue, but mental fatigue. I had to face all kinds of customers with a smile all day long, and my face became numb from smiling. ”
“We don’t have to put on a professional smile in our line of work. ”
Lucia said in an old-fashioned tone.
After saying that, she paused and looked up at Xia Li who was tidying up the refrigerator.
“I am mainly responsible for being a background board in the corner of the consultation room… The attending physician said that my professional ability is very strong, but my affinity with small animals is a little lacking, so he suggested that I should learn more. ”
When she said this, Xia Li could clearly hear Lucia’s unwillingness.
But in the next second, she quickly adjusted:
“But, to be a pet doctor, you don’t have to get along with pets. Pets can’t talk, and they don’t pay. I just need to get along with the pet owners! Today, a big sister praised me for being cute, and she said she would come back to me for deworming next time!!”
A smile bloomed on Lucia’s face, the corners of her mouth sweet, like the sun that could melt snow in winter.
Xia Li sighed inwardly.
Okay.
He was still thinking about comforting this dragon…
With Lucia’s cheerful personality, she didn’t need Xia Li’s comfort at all.
“What are you doing?”
After resting on the sofa for a while, Lucia regained her energy and walked into the kitchen to look at Xia Li.
Xia Li was putting a carton of eggs in the refrigerator, washing his hands and starting to wash the rice.
“Cooking,” he replied casually.
Seeing this, Lucia rolled up her sleeves and started to intervene.
Washing rice is playing with water, which she is good at.
“Let go of the rice, let me do it!”
“Let you do what, I’m cooking tonight. ”
Xia Li pushed the evil dragon away from the sink, and Lucia didn’t fight him for it, standing by thoughtfully.
Closing the lid of the rice cooker, Xia Li wondered what to cook tonight.
He didn’t buy much at the supermarket in the afternoon. The meat and vegetables were half a chicken, two catties of ribs, and half a catty of pork.
Lucia always liked to buy meat at this supermarket. The meat products they sold were very convenient. The chef would be responsible for processing them, cutting the ribs into sections and shredding the pork. This undoubtedly solved the urgent need for Lucia’s worrying knife skills.
“Scrambled eggs with cucumber and shredded pork with chives, do you want to eat?”
Xia Li had the menu in mind and turned to ask Lucia.
This dragon was standing beside him supervising, with a smile on her face.
“Eat!”
There was no point in asking this question, after all, this dragon was happy to eat anything.
“Xia Li…”
“Go ahead. ”
“I’ll support you in the future, you cook for me every day!” Lucia suggested.
Xia Li’s hand that was washing the chives stopped, and he turned around in surprise.
“You’re reversing the heavens… This line should be said by me?!”
No.
This dragon had only been working for one day, and she was already thinking about ‘rebelling’?!
“You little intern, earning forty yuan a day, it’s not enough to buy two catties of ribs!”
Lucia thought for a moment and said, “But, you said writing books is unstable, maybe next month the book will be gone and you won’t have a penny, but I can have 1200 yuan every month. ”
“That’s true…”
“So, I’ll support you! At worst, we’ll eat less ribs in the future!”
◈◈◈
Xia Li was about to vomit blood when he heard this.
Was the point about ribs?!
“Don’t you see that I’m staying at home now, but this is called forbearance, do you understand?”
Putting the washed chives on the chopping board and cutting them, Xia Li distracted himself and began to instill traditional human concepts into the evil dragon.
“Forbearance?”
“Haven’t you seen movies? Those reclusive masters are like this… First find a place to hide, develop wretchedly, and then accumulate strength. So, I’ll still support you in the future. ”
Lucia stood by the side, listening to the sound of the hero chopping vegetables, thinking about the reasoning he was talking about.
She didn’t know much about reclusive masters or anything like that.
But, seeing Xia Li driving her to work and picking her up from work, then cutting and frying at home to cook for her, she liked it.
If only Xia Li would always be like this…
There was a feeling that Xia Li revolved around her, that she was loved and cared for by Xia Li.
In return, the only thing she could do was to hand over her little money and buy ribs for Xia Li to eat…
Oh, right.
In human terms, this feeling is called ‘life’.
Lucia liked this kind of life.
“I think you must have it backwards. ”
Xia Li thought this was much more serious than cooking.
He put down the kitchen knife and turned sideways to seriously say to Lucia.
“I’m glad you understand the way human families are maintained… But the position is wrong. Different humans play different roles in the family. ”
Lucia looked up blankly, and Xia Li knew this guy definitely didn’t understand.
He had to make her understand.
Xia Li didn’t want to eat this dragon’s soft rice!
“Think about it, you marry me, you’re pregnant… Anyway, there are many times when girls are inconvenient, so generally men support a family.
It’s not that women can’t do this, but it’s easier for men to do it.
Besides, most men don’t want their wives to run around outside, but rather hope that their wives will take care of the housework, so that they can go out and make money with peace of mind. I also have this idea, maybe a little bit of male chauvinism. ”
“Oh…”
Xia Li said a lot, but got a rather perfunctory syllable in return.
Lucia just stared at his eyes, her beautiful and flawless golden brown eyes blinking, not knowing what she was thinking.
Xia Li’s nose was crooked with anger.
He took off the apron from his neck and hung it on Lucia.
“You cook this meal!”
“But I’ve never cooked stir-fried pork with chives…”
“It doesn’t matter,” Xia Li himself was anxious, “I’ll eat whatever you cook!”
To implement ‘male chauvinism’ is to implement it to the end!
This dragon had only been out for one day, and Xia Li had only been at home for a few hours, and she was already trying to be the master of the house!
What’s with all this.
Xia Li sat back in the living room, brooding.
Hearing the sound of cucumber peeling in his ears, Xia Li finally couldn’t help but stand up.
“Give me the cucumber to slice… With your knife skills, you’ll cut it thicker than your fingers!”
Snatching the kitchen knife from the evil dragon’s hand, Xia Li skillfully sliced the cucumber into thin slices.
“The knife should be placed like this, otherwise it’s easy to cut your hand. ” Xia Li held the kitchen knife and taught her personally.
The kitchen knife was clattering, and this knife skill was top-notch even in another world.
The little dragon was stunned watching from the side.
The hero must have always slayed dragons like this…
No, he was just talking about ‘wife’s big belly’ and ‘marriage’.
Lucia shook her head, her mind in a mess.
She just thought of a way of life for a human family, but Xia Li said so much about it.
The dragon brain was originally single-core and single-threaded, and now her CPU was burning.
