.Xu Wangming was stunned for a second, and then his eyes wandered and said: "Ahem, I...of course I want to buy leeks."

How could he have the nerve to admit that he had mistaken leeks for spring onions? He felt outrageous even when he said this mistake.

"Oh~" Wen Jiu said in a longer tone, "Uncle Xu, just eat leeks for dinner."

After finishing speaking, she looked at the ingredients on the chopping board with some confusion.

She felt that Xu Wangming must have entered the supermarket in a hurry and grabbed a few random items from the fruit and vegetable section without even considering whether these ingredients could be combined and used.

But this kind of small problem is nothing.

Wen Jiu first searched the stove and cupboards, then opened the refrigerator and took a look.

The condiments here are quite complete, and some condiment bottles are not even unpacked, but there are still a few things she needs missing.

So she turned to look at Xu Wangming and said, "Uncle Xu, you can't just stand and wait. Besides, how can you be embarrassed to eat if you don't work, right?"

As soon as he heard this, Xu Wangming knew what Wen Jiuding was up to.

"Then tell me, what do you want me to do for you? Wash vegetables or cut vegetables?" He said and took two steps forward.

However, Wen Jiu only replied: "Bring me some herbs, rosemary, thyme and basil leaves."

Her words made Xu Wangming a little confused, "What do you want these herbs for? Do you plan to make potions here or do you want to make nutrient solutions?"

"I use these for cooking," Wen Jiutai explained patiently, "Rosemary and thyme are ground into powder respectively, and basil leaves are the freshest ones."

Seeing that she looked serious and didn't mean to be joking, Xu Wangming nodded and turned around and walked towards the door.

"Uncle Xu! Please help me ask nurse Liu Meimei if I can borrow her ingredients?"

"I will only use a little. I will transfer the star coins to you later, and then you will transfer them to her."

Wen Jiu's voice sounded again, and Xu Wangming turned around frequently to respond.

After she finished speaking, Xu Wangming sighed and left quickly.

Wen Jiu was the only one left in the kitchen, and she began to process the ingredients in an orderly manner.

The first thing to deal with was the large bag of boneless chicken legs. She washed the bag of chicken legs and divided it into two parts.

Part of it is used to make borscht. There is no need to marinate and season it, just cut it into small pieces.

The other part had to wait for Xu Wangming to bring what she needed before she could deal with it, so she washed and cut all kinds of vegetables and put them aside just waiting to be turned on and put into the pot.

"Xiao Wenjiu, I brought the herbs you asked for."

Xu Wangming closed the door and strode to Wen Jiu's side, then placed two bottles and a handful of basil leaves on the chopping board table.

"Thanks, uncle." Wen Jiu picked up the bottle and looked at it. The label was thoughtfully put on it, for fear that she would confuse rosemary and thyme.

"I asked Nurse Liu for you, and she said you don't have to be polite to use it as you like." After giving the things, Xu Wangming dragged a chair out from the corner and sat down to wait for the meal.

Hearing this, Wen Jiu nodded and immediately began to process the other part of the chicken leg.

She put large pieces of chicken legs into the basin, then poured in salt, black pepper, rosemary and thyme, and then added some garlic cloves and onion rings. Finally, she put on gloves and mixed the chicken legs with the seasonings.

Pickled.

While this part of the chicken leg needed to be marinated for a while, Wen Jiu found a stew pot from the cupboard and prepared to simmer the borscht on the fire.

Every household has its own way of making borscht soup, and this dish evolved from red cabbage soup introduced to China from abroad, so there are more ways to make it. (1)

The method Wen Jiu chose was a relatively simple Shanghai-style method, but due to limited materials, she could only try to restore it as much as possible.

After lighting the fire, she poured a small amount of oil on the bottom of the pot, then added onions and sautéed them until they were slightly browned and soft, then added diced carrots and tomatoes and stir-fried again.

"Uncle Xu, please help me get Nurse Liu's butter from the refrigerator."

It is not difficult to make dairy products such as butter, so it is a common ingredient here.

As soon as Xu Wangming opened the refrigerator, he saw Nurse Liu's butter. There was a pink love sticker on the palm-sized package, with Nurse Liu's name and the name of the ingredients written on it in pen.

The seasonings and kitchen utensils in the kitchen are shared, but you have to prepare the ingredients yourself.

In order to prevent confusion between others using your own ingredients, medical staff who often come to the kitchen to cook will label the ingredients.

"Here you go."

Wen Jiu took the butter from Xu Wangming, tore open the package, cut a small piece and threw it into the pot, then stir-fried until all the light yellow butter pieces melted.

Then she poured a large bowl of water into the pot, stirred the ingredients in the pot, and then added chicken legs and potatoes cut into small pieces, as well as a little seasoning.

The next step was to cover the pot and simmer, so Wen Jiu began to make another dish.

Fry the marinated chicken legs in a pan until browned, then add a small piece of butter until melted, then add sliced ​​white mushrooms and fry until soft.

Then he added various seasonings and the milk kindly provided by Nurse Liu. In fact, it would be better to use light cream here, but there is no light cream in the refrigerator to use.

Although Wen Jiu could make her own whipped cream, she was really hungry and didn't want to waste any more time, so she chose milk to make do.

After stirring the contents in the pot evenly, add the browned chicken thighs that you just fried and cook until the soup thickens.

As time goes by, the aroma in the kitchen becomes stronger and stronger. You can smell the sweet and sour aroma of borscht and the captivating garlic aroma of chicken stewed with creamy mushrooms without even having to smell it carefully.

"Xiao Wenjiu, when can we start dinner?"

Xu Wangming felt extremely hungry when he smelled the fragrance. He had eaten and drank half a bottle of nutrient solution at noon today, and in the afternoon he was dealing with various things outside and was a little dizzy. It was not easy to find time to go to the supermarket to buy ingredients.
p>

He originally wanted to go back to the hospital after dinner, but someone sent him news that Zhou Xia had been pestering Wen Jiu, so he hurried back without having time to have dinner or drink a nutrient solution.

.

"Come on, come on." Wen Jiu swallowed, and the spoon in his hand was stirring the pot of thick borscht.

Guessing that it was almost done, she picked up the bowl next to her and filled two full bowls of borscht, and then put the stewed garlic cream mushroom stewed chicken on the plate.

"It's time to eat, Uncle Xu!"

Hearing the sound, Xu Wangming hurriedly washed his hands and walked quickly to the chopping board.

Since everyone prepares meals, they take them back to the office or take them to the cafeteria to eat, so there is no special dining table prepared for people to use in the kitchen.

But now only Wen Jiu and Xu Wangming are here, so they make do with the chopping board as a dining table.
