Picking up an egg, Leiyin gently rubbed the surface of the eggshell. It felt very small and cute. There were similar ingredients in the world she once lived in, but they were much larger.
On the continent of Leitings, farmers basically raise a type of bird called a bird.
When a female cockatoo grows to about one hundred days old, she will start to lay eggs, usually one to two every three days, which are about five times the size of normal eggs.
When Leiyin was young, Queen Angelita Noah Sigurd would cook her favorite egg dishes specially for her whenever she had free time...
It was a sunny noon. Angelita was not wearing any luxurious palace dress, and she pushed away the guards and maids who were following her.
Wearing a simple long skirt with a waistband, she held Leiyin's little hand and walked in the palace.
The mother and daughter came to a corner of the central courtyard, where a simple small kitchen had been renovated.
"Little Lilia, do you want to eat cheese omelette or baked eggs today?" Angelita bent down and pinched her little daughter's cheek lovingly.
"Mother, Lilia is not picky about food, she eats everything..." Leiyin replied firmly.
"No, you can only choose one." Angelita gently tapped her daughter's little head and said with a smile.
"Lilia needs to eat more if she wants to become a warrior like her father and brothers..."
"That's not possible. Little Lilia is so cute. She can't turn into a muscular idiot like your father and brother in the future..."
…
Recalling her mother's gentle smile, Leiyin's eyes were a little moist, and her hand holding the egg couldn't help but use a little force.
Bang!
The egg couldn't withstand the pressure and burst. The yolk shot out from the gap between the fingers and hit the head of Xu Fei, who was still giggling, at a speed of 123.1 kilometers per hour.
Snapped!
"!!!??..."
Before he could even utter a sound, Xu Fei rolled his eyes and fell on his back. At the same time, a big bump appeared on his forehead.
About a minute later.
"?" Xu Fei suddenly woke up and found himself sitting on the ground with his back leaning against the kitchen door.
"What happened just now? Who attacked me!"
He touched his forehead and cheeks, and found that the silky egg white was all over his face, moisturizing his skin.
Leiyin looked at him nervously, but hesitated to speak.
Standing up tremblingly, I saw a lot of tiny cracks suddenly appeared on the wooden door of the kitchen, and a piece of egg yolk was slowly sliding down...
Xu Fei looked at Leiyin's eggshell-covered hands with some surprise, as if he had some idea of what happened before.
Leiyin pursed her lips and hurriedly put her jade hands, which still had the green light remaining after using the recovery magic, behind her back.
"..." Xu Fei.
"..." Leiyin.
Seemingly confused by what she saw, Leiyin panicked and picked up an egg again to crack open.
"Hero, stop!" Seeing this, Xu Fei exclaimed reflexively, stepped forward and grabbed the girl's white jade-like wrist.
"I was thinking about something just now. It's no problem this time..." Leiyin lowered her head and objected softly.
How dare Xu Fei believe her? She was inexplicably knocked unconscious by the egg yolk, which was simply unheard of!
And I still don’t know what happened specifically, and I don’t dare to ask in detail. I only have a rough guess.
Taking a deep breath, Xu Fei said seriously: "Leiyin, listen to me. Menial work like beating eggs is not suitable for you. It is usually done by rough men. Leave it to me! A gentle and careful woman like you , you should cut vegetables! That kind of even and smooth knife skills can only be achieved by women with delicate minds."
"Okay... let go of your hands..." Seeing the other party's serious look, Leiyin had no choice but to agree.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I was in a hurry." Xu Fei let go of the girl's wrist and scratched his head, thinking about why he shouldn't wash his hands today? He picked up the egg basket and walked aside.
The reason why Leiyin was asked to beat eggs was because Xu Fei was once a leader among overtime dogs, and he always ate simple and quick fried eggs, boiled eggs, and steamed eggs.
I can't say he's good at other things, but he's definitely a master at beating eggs. He can even hold two eggs in each hand and crack four eggs at the same time without them turning yellow.
According to the original plan, Leiyin, as a royal child from another world, would definitely not enter the kitchen.
Then you definitely can't do a job like beating eggs that practice makes perfect. Then you can take the opportunity to show off your skills and teach you step by step.
Unexpectedly, the reality did not follow the script at all. If Leiyin was asked to crack eggs a few more times, she would probably be dead first...
Glancing at the egg basket unwillingly, Leiyin walked towards the small wooden table opposite the stove.
On a small rectangular table over one meter high, there is a clean and tidy cypress wood chopping board. It looks like it has not been used a few times and has just been wiped clean.
There was a vegetable basket hanging on the side of the small table, which contained a variety of fresh vegetables, all of which Xu Fei bought at noon.
"Xu Fei, which one do you want to cut..." Leiyin asked.
"Peel the papaya and cut it into pieces. Let's make papaya stewed pork ribs first. It will keep you warm in the winter." Xu Fei touched his nose and responded with a smile. He felt that the conversation just now had the feeling of a young couple, and he couldn't help but feel sweet in his heart.
Lei Yin awkwardly turned on the faucet and rinsed the surface of the papaya clean.
She looked at the kitchen knife and stretched out her slender fingers to touch the stainless steel blade, feeling a little envious. Daily necessities in this world are very convenient.
On the Leitings continent where Leiyin once lived, chefs also used kitchen knives, but they were made of black iron and were much bulkier than the one in their hands.
She still vaguely remembered the scene when she was cutting meat before watching someone cook for the last time...
It was the winter three years ago, and my father, Barnt Kugaru Sigurd, personally led the army to go on an expedition.
After pursuing the enemy into the Bales Mountains, they suddenly encountered heavy snow and blocked the mountains, and the troops were trapped for nearly half a month.
The cold wind was still howling at night, and Leiyin sat by the fire in the camp with deep thoughts.
This battle was a rapid march and did not carry much food and grass. If the weather does not clear up next week, not to mention the morale of the army, will the nobles in the country know that their father is trapped...
With a roar, the curtain of the military tent was opened.
A tall, middle-aged man wearing a fur cloak, a crown, and short silver hair and beard broke in.
The man's whole body was covered with snowflakes, and there were two big streaks of snot that had frozen into icicles hanging from his nostrils, which was incompatible with his majestic image...
"F-Father...?" Leiyin's thoughts were suddenly interrupted, and she looked at the person in front of her and said in surprise. She didn't understand why her father was returning from the snowstorm at this time, and what if he was attacked by enemies on the way.
"Little Lilia, come out with your father quickly, let me show you something good, hahahahaha!" King Barnt laughed boldly, and the two icicles of snot in his nostrils broke off and fell to the ground and shattered. .
Leiyin, who was still sitting in front of the fire, immediately shivered, turned into an afterimage and hid in the distance, and looked at the big nose that was gradually melting on the ground with disgust.
King Barnt was not embarrassed at all and waved his hand vigorously, gesturing for her to follow.
Stepping out of the military tent, the biting wind and snow instantly hit my body.
Leiyin looked forward, and saw a young general wearing heavy aqua armor, dragging a huge wild boar carcass over six meters long towards this side.
"Brother Frederic..." Leiyin called softly.
The young general walked closer, put down the wild boar easily, and then pulled out the two icicles embedded in his nostrils and threw them back gracefully. He was none other than Duke Fred, the second prince of the Sigurd Empire.
"Sister Qihuang, you are not happy because you have meat to eat today."
Fred said happily. He always loved his youngest sister very much. When he learned that Leiyin was going to join the Imperial Knights two years ago, he even had a private fight with King Barnt. Of course, the result was He was beaten so hard that he had to call his daddy all over the place.
"Lilia, the blizzard is not terrible, what is terrible is the people who are afraid of it. This kind of thinking will be contagious and spread, eventually leading to low morale of the entire legion or even collapse." King Barnt slowly pulled out the giant weapon on his back. sword.
Leiyin looked at her usually indifferent father, her eyes filled with confusion.
King Barnt grinned, walked to the wild boar, and suddenly burst out with a roar of thunder: "Fighters of the empire, your most respected king, hunted food in the cold blizzard, and today everyone has broth to drink. !”
Hearing the king's roar, people gradually gathered in the originally oppressive military camp.
An old knight looked at the wild boar, licked his chilblained lips, and shouted in a hoarse voice: "O king, cut it."
Slowly, other knights and soldiers also shouted, and finally formed a roar like a mountain roar and a tsunami.
""Cut it! Cut it! Cut it!""
King Barnt raised his giant sword high above his head and shouted again: "Hahaha, cut it how you want!"
The hungry warriors immediately responded with a louder roar:
""Cut it in two with one sword! Cut it in two with one sword! Cut it in two with one sword!""
…
Recalling her father's hearty smile, Leiyin unconsciously rubbed the center of her eyebrows, and gradually tightened her right hand holding the kitchen knife, raising it high.
"Cut in two..."
Xu Fei, who was imagining how to instruct Leiyin to cut melons, was awakened by the sudden murmur. He turned to look at the girl and asked in confusion: "What's a knife?"
Snapped!
The sound of a kitchen knife hitting the chopping board was heard, and the papaya was evenly divided into two halves.
Immediately afterwards, the next moment, the chopping board was also divided into two halves, and then the table...
Suddenly, a white light flashed in front of Xu Fei's eyes, and a few light things fell down, which were his bangs...
Click, click, click.
Mechanically, he turned his head to look at the kitchen door. The stainless steel kitchen knife that had been used for many years was firmly inserted into the wooden door.
Looking at Leiyin again, the little girl's cheeks were slightly red and she reached out to cover her mouth. She was looking here in panic. In her right hand, she still held the handle of a kitchen knife that had lost its blade.
Two minutes later...
Leiyin was pushed out by Xu Fei very simply, and he also told her solemnly that in this world, men are the mainstay of the family, and women will not easily set foot in the kitchen! This is a very important issue related to men's 'face'!
Of course Leiyin didn't believe this... Although she was simple, she was not stupid. She was obviously disgusted with her clumsiness.
Hearing the sound of the door being locked from the kitchen, Leiyin pouted slightly and sat back on the sofa in displeasure to continue reading the book "Modern History of the World".
