Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 77: Chapter 77: Hong Braised Bamboo Rat

Translator: 549690339

“Wow, so you eat pretty much the same stuff as us humans, huh? The only difference might be that you eat it raw while we eat it cooked.”

Qin Xue never expected that the bamboo forest would be spiritual bamboo, and it even had bamboo rats inside. Thinking of the plump bamboo rats, she wanted to taste them too.

“Master, it’s not that I don’t want to eat cooked food, but you forgot about me. So, I had to find food on my own. Although I can talk, I haven’t cultivated into a human form and it’s impossible for me to make a fire and cook food.

So, to avoid starving, I had to eat raw food. Master, when will you cook something delicious for me?” Xue Ling started to ask for treats.

“l can cook for you, but you have to catch a couple of bamboo rats first. Just so you know, I’m not good with live ones, so you need to kill them before bringing them to me.”

Qin Xue was not afraid of dead people, but she was scared to kill things that look like rats.

Xue Ling took the order, quickly dashed out, and returned with frightening speed.

Qin Xue put on her clothes and sat on the stone steps to wait for Xue Ling.

In no time, Xue Ling dragged a bamboo rat in front of Qin Xue and quickly darted away, then returned with another one in tow.

Qin Xue weighed the dead bamboo rats in her hands; they were not light.

“Alright, I’ll take them outside and cook them, then I’ll give you some to eat. I’ll make braised bamboo rats; I like spicy food, so I won’t put chili in yours. Just wait.”

“Thank you, Master.” Xue Ling waved its claw at Qin Xue.

Qin Xue took the bamboo rats out of the space, skinned them, washed them, cut them into pieces, and prepared some peppers.

Qin Xue washed the pot, heated the oil, fried the ginger and Sichuan pepper, stirred the meat until it changed color, added soy sauce and a bit of sugar, then mixed it with the spiritual spring water to braise the dish.

When the meat was tender, she turned up the heat to thicken the sauce, and the fragrant braised bamboo rat was done.

Qin Xue brought a plate of spicy and a plate of non-spicy braised bamboo rats into the space.

She and Xue Ling sat side by side on the stone steps and enjoyed the meal.

“Master, the food you made is really delicious.” Xue Ling ate adorably, its mouth twitching!

“Of course, my cooking skills were taught by my grandma, how could they not be good?”

As Qin Xue mentioned this, she went silent. Was her grandma alright?

“Master, can you cook delicious food for me again next time? Oh, there are some bamboo shoots over there. Do you want to dig them up and eat them? They are tender and crunchy.” Xue Ling noticed Qin Xue’s mood and suggested digging up some bamboo shoots.

“I’d like to, but how do I explain to Chu Molin where these bamboo shoots came from?” Qin Xue loved bamboo shoots, but she couldn’t let anyone discover her space.

Even though she was holding a gold mine, she had to endure the hardship of poverty.

“Oh, that is a problem,” Xue Ling forgot that Chu Molin didn’t know about the space,

“Well, don’t worry about it. I’ll just wait until he’s not at home and eat alone, just like now.” Qin Xue wasn’t trying to keep Chu Molin from eating but rather compensate him with other things since she didn’t know how to explain her situation.

After finishing the meat, Qin Xue and Xue Ling rubbed their bellies. So full!

There was no need for dinner tonight; she would make a bowl of noodles for Chu Molin instead.

She had bought some meat yesterday, and it was still in the space, so she decided to make him a bowl of noodles with meat sauce.

“Xue Ling, I’m going to pick some vegetables to make noodles for Chu Molin, and walking will serve as exercise. Do you want to come along?”

“Let’s go together. Master, I want to eat noodles too. Make some extra, and I’ll have a bowl too.’

Just thinking of Qin Xue’s cooking made Xue Ling drool.

“Um, Xue Ling, do foxes eat noodles too?” Qin Xue asked the white fox in confusion.

“Master, I’m not an ordinary fox; I’m a Fox Fairy. It’s just that I was sealed for too long, and my spiritual power has been consumed, so I’m weak. But I’ll become strong and powerful eventually.” Xue Ling didn’t want to be this weak either.

However, after being sealed for who knows how long, it was awakened by Qin Xue’s blood, so it has to cultivate slowly now.

“Oh, I see. How powerful exactly?” Qin Xue looked at Xue Ling doubtingly.contemporary romance

It wasn’t that she didn’t believe it, but Xue Ling didn’t look like something anyone would believe.

“Um, I don’t know right now.” Xue Ling felt less and less confident.

Couldn’t the master simply believe in it without doubting it?

“Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. Let’s go pick vegetables.” Qin Xue didn’t want to frustrate Xue Ling further.

Together, they went to the vegetable field, picked a bunch of leafy greens, four tomatoes, and over a dozen chili peppers.

Looking at the tree full of peppers, she thought about making some chili sauce to go with meals.

Spread it on a bun or some bread, and the taste would be superb.

It would even be great to add a little to noodles; the flavor would make her mouth water.

She decided to do it, and she would buy some jars tomorrow to start making it..
