Dad's Tianting Taobao Store

Chapter 39

Xiao Qi was still sleeping, Xiao Ming got up quietly, covered her with the quilt, turned and left the room.

Xiao Ming first went to check the ginseng planted in the yard before, and now they are as tall as a calf, and some of them are even about to start blooming.

He has checked the information about ginseng planting, although it is the first time to get started, but because of the unique conditions, it seems to be growing well.

Although a few plants died during the period, most of them survived and grew gratifyingly.

After pouring water and straightening the crooked ones, Xiao Ming walked towards the other side of the yard.

Although the house is a bit dilapidated, but fortunately there is a kitchen, but there is nothing in it, and it is still the most primitive stove.

Xiao Ming had already cleaned it before, and although it was a bit worn out, it was barely usable.

He took out all the things he bought before from his Qiankun bag and put them on the table. Xiao Ming fished out two fish from the pond and went back to the kitchen.

Just when she was about to cook, Xiaoqi woke up unexpectedly. She seemed to have found it after hearing the sound, and stood at the door with the white cat in her arms, looking this way curiously.

"Papa, what are you doing?"

Xiao Ming originally wanted to wake up Xiao Qi after finishing it quietly, and give her a surprise, but he didn't expect Xiao Qi to find her first.

He said: "Braised fish in brown sauce, does Xiao Qi want to eat it?"

Hearing this name, Xiao Qi's eyes lit up immediately.

"It was Papa who told Xiao Qi before going to bed, the braised fish?"

Xiao Ming felt a little helpless when he heard this. "That's right, that's it."

Since the last time Xiao Qi told Xiao Qi the bedtime story of Sleeping Beauty, Xiao Ming really couldn't think of other stories.

In Xiaoqi's eyes, those ferocious monsters are even more cute, and they must not be injured.

Xiao Ming couldn't find any other stories, and once he accidentally mentioned the delicious food in the room, unexpectedly, Xiao Qi became interested, listened to it with great interest, and finally fell asleep contentedly.

Since then, it has been out of control, and every night's bedtime story has become a variety of recipes.

Xiao Ming is ready to read China on the tip of his tongue, looking for material.

Hearing the affirmative answer, Xiao Qi ran over excitedly, looked at Xiao Ming with bright eyes, eager to try, but obediently did not move.

Xiao Ming saw through her thoughts and asked proactively, "Does Xiao Qi want to do it with Dad?"

"Can you?" Xiao Qi looked at him excitedly.

Immediately afterwards, he became lost again, holding his hands nervously.

"But...Xiao Qi doesn't know how to cook, what should I do?"

She worried that she would add to the chaos.

Xiao Ming smiled and said: "Don't worry, Xiao Qi will start with the simple ones first, and then he will be good at it. Now let Dad make it for Xiao Qi to eat."

Xiao Qi nodded upon hearing this.

"Xiao Qi can help. When Xiao Qi learns, she can cook for Papa."

"Then I'll wait for Xiao Qi to take over the spoon later."

Said, Xiao Ming looked at the action in front of him, what can Xiao Qi help?
"Xiaoqi, can you help Dad light the fire?"

Xiao Qi looked at the unfamiliar stove in front of him, and said firmly: Don't worry, Baba, Xiao Qi promises to complete the task! "

After speaking, he sat down on the small bench.

Xiao Ming had already lit the fire just now, now he only needs to add firewood to it, the firewood on the side was also picked up by Xiao Ming from the yard before, so it should be enough.

Xiao Qi put down the white cat in his arms, looked at the firewood in front of him, frowned slightly, his whole face was very tense, as if he was facing a very difficult task.

"Don't worry, Xiao Qi is fine." Xiao Ming encouraged.

Xiao Qi carefully put the firewood in...

Seeing that her movements gradually became proficient, Xiao Ming felt relieved.

"If the fire goes out, blow on it and it will start again," he reminded.

"Got it, Baba."

Xiao Qi's eyes were fixed on the burning flames, and he didn't dare to relax for a moment.

As soon as the white cat broke free from Xiao Qi's shackles, he jumped onto a chair beside him, staring straight at the fish in the pot, almost drooling.

Xiao Ming glanced at him, and thought the cat was well-behaved. He didn't jump directly into the pot, and couldn't help muttering: "Tigers also like fish?"

The white cat meowed a few times, eagerly looking at the things in the pot house.

Xiao Ming turned the fish upside down and closed the lid, and then suddenly found that Xiao Qi hadn't moved since just now.

He turned his head and glanced over there, and saw Xiao Qi obediently sitting on a chair, busy with her head down.

Xiao Ming asked suspiciously: "Xiaoqi, what are you doing?"

"Baba!"

Xiao Qi raised his head suddenly.

Xiao Ming was startled when he saw his face.

I saw that Xiao Qi's face was dark, and his whole face was covered by soot, only a pair of eyes were shining.

She looked at Xiao Ming suspiciously.

"Papa, what's the matter?"

Seeing her appearance, Xiao Ming couldn't help laughing.

"your face……"

Xiao Qi looked at him suspiciously, not understanding what was going on.

Xiao Ming hurriedly said: "Don't move yet."

He took out his mobile phone, took a picture of Xiao Qi sitting in a chair, and showed it to her, holding back a smile.

"Xiao Qi, look at your appearance now."

Xiao Qi approached suspiciously, and when she saw herself in the photo, her eyes widened in fright.

"This...is Xiaoqi?"

Xiao Ming nodded.

Xiao Qi took a closer look, grinned, and pointed at himself in the photo.

"Xiaoqi's face is so dark."

Xiao Ming was melted by the smile on his face, and said: "Xiao Qi, don't move, I will wipe it for you."

After speaking, he took a towel and dipped it in some water, and carefully wiped off the soot on her face.

"All right."

Xiao Ming asked curiously again: "Xiao Qi, what were you doing just now? How did you make your face so dark?"

Speaking of this, Xiaoqi suddenly became worried.

"Papa said, when the fire goes out, you can blow on it... Then, Xiaoqi will become like this."

Xiao Qi's face was full of confusion, as if he still didn't understand what was going on.

Xiao Ming was amused by her appearance.

"Sorry, I forgot to remind you, don't get too close when blowing, or you will become a little cat if you are not careful."

Xiao Qi wiped her face.

"It's okay. Papa, is it ready?"

"Just wait a few more minutes."

Xiao Qi's eyes lit up immediately when he heard the words, and he stood aside holding Xiao Qi, his eyes fixed on the contents of the pot.

The movements and expressions of one person and one cat were surprisingly consistent, and they stared at them without blinking.

Xiao Ming went to prepare a few other side dishes, and took the time to steam the rice brought from the room, which happened to be served with braised fish.

"Papa, are you ready?"

Xiao Ming took a look. "Just 3 more minutes."

Xiao Qi looked at it anxiously, and couldn't wait.

Seeing that Xiao Ming was busy, he ran over to help with short legs.

"Papa, Xiaoqi is here to help you."

After a few minutes, as soon as Xiao Ming opened the lid of the pot, a strong aroma wafted out, not to mention Xiao Qi, even Xiao Ming himself was a little hungry.
