This made Tiancheng very distressed. It was not that she could not suppress her emotions, but her feelings for the little commander were not as pure as Lafei's. Every time she looked over, she would always be noticed by the alert little commander, which really gave her a headache.
No matter how entangled Tiancheng was, life had to go on. After Su Xin came back, she no longer read the books she found interesting, but continued to study emotional
She always felt that she owed Lafite an answer, but now she had only written a solution and could only get one point at most. This made the little commander, who was uncomfortable with the low score, very dissatisfied and she began to immerse herself in related anecdotes and videos all day long.
Rafi's insomnia was not cured because the little commander didn't want to sleep with her. When you asked her why, the little commander would stammer and say that she took advantage of Rafi.
Lafite is so numb, is he the modern Liuxia Hui? He didn't even take off his clothes and still said he was taking advantage. If there was any advantage, it was Lafite who was pushing his head against the steel plate all day long.
But Su Xin just refused. She was very determined to sleep in separate beds. She even asked Helena to come out and ask her to persuade Rafi to go back to his room and sleep.
Rafi was so embarrassed that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He had no choice but to obey her and walked back to his room with his pillow.
The bedding was filled with her usual scent of red wine, and the lingering peach scent had long since dissipated. Rafi looked at the two pillows on the bed, and after a long silence, he pulled one up and held it in his arms, muttering softly.
"...wood…"
When Yubari arrived at Su Xin's port area, he hurriedly chose a room, then said hello to Su Xin and fell into a sleep-filled time that lasted for several days.
She didn't sleep well on the train because there was always a section of the journey that made the carriage shake a little, and the monotonous and repetitive sound of the train made it impossible for her to fall asleep peacefully.
Now she finally got the chance, so she turned on the air conditioner, then threw herself into the soft and elastic quilt, and wrapped herself in the quilt like a cloth cocoon. With the occasional bird calls outside, Yubari closed her eyes.
An eye.
It was a rare occasion that Yubari had a good sleep, which lasted for a particularly long time. He didn't even dream. He just felt his eyes closing and opening again. His sore eyes and tired body were healed without any medicine.
When Yubari woke up, two whole days had passed. He stretched his body, and when he turned around, he found that there was still someone sleeping in his bed.
Chubby legs, soft belly, long golden hair covering the entire bed, isn't this Su Xin's shipgirl Eldridge?!
Yubari was full of questions. He shook Eldridge tentatively, and after waking her up, he asked her, "Eldridge? Why are you in my room?"
"...I feel sleepy..."
Yubari was silent for a while, "...Then why don't you go back to your room and sleep?"
"...The commander...will call me...for dinner..."
Yubari was stunned when he heard this, and was deeply impressed by Eldridge's obsession with sleep. "Then you should sleep for a while. I have rested enough. You probably won't have a chance in the future."
Eldridge lay in the bed and slightly raised the quilt, "...Hmm."
Yubari sighed and got out of bed. He suddenly thought of something and froze for a moment. "That's not right... Didn't I lock the door? You can't get in even if you have the key... How did you get here?"
Hearing this, Eldridge lazily stretched out his hand and turned his palm towards the door from a distance, and then Yubari heard the sound of his door being locked.
"Click."
"..."
"Should I call in the military police?"
Chapter 254 Yixian Ninghai Cooking Record
Ninghai and Pinghai have a new life
Although the two of them had not signed the documents to register their identities, the young commander was very hospitable and allowed the two sisters to stay in the port area and they could leave anytime they wanted.
This is a great benefit. Not only is the food and accommodation free, but they don't have to take any responsibility. Commander Su is really a good person!
Look at this smooth and artistic stone road, look at the neatly trimmed green plants, smell the fragrance of flowers and plants filling your nose, and touch the amusement facilities that are full of the smell of money.
My goodness, this is not the level of having a mine at home, right? What kind of miner would build an amusement park at home? Just build it, but the ticket money is not collected, and all the income from the amusement park is given to the little yellow chickens.
Ning Hai, who had only been poor and had never touched money, simply couldn't understand it. He had never seen someone so squandering. Investing for free without asking for returns, right? What a business genius!
But no matter how angry she was, that was just her own thought. After all, they were still outsiders at the moment and had no right to care what the little commander did.
"Come to think of it, this bed is really soft..." Ning Hai sat on the edge of the bed and pressed it gently with her hand. It was so elastic that she couldn't imagine.
Pinghai's eyes sparkled. He threw away his slippers and jumped up. Then he was bounced back into the air by the mattress, as if he was playing on a trampoline, going up and down and enjoying it endlessly.
Ning Hai let her jump around, although she was a little worried about whether the bed would be broken and whether she would have to pay for it, but when she thought about the little commander's lifestyle of spending money everywhere, she didn't care.
But they couldn't make too much of a fuss. After all, the bed was for the two of them to sleep on together. If it was really broken, it would be too embarrassing to ask others to move to another room.
As for why Ning Hai wanted to sleep with Ping Hai, it was actually not arranged by the commander. Since the dormitory was renovated and expanded, there were as many empty rooms as there were people. It was mainly because Ning Hai himself felt embarrassed.
Before signing the registration, Ning Hai, who had good character, always felt that he was taking advantage of others. Not only was it food, but the two sisters took up two rooms at once, which made Ning Hai feel a little guilty.
So she had to say that she and her sister were used to sharing hair accessories, stockings and the like, so it was natural for them to have separate beds, and therefore they still wanted to live together. Only then did the little commander feel relieved and gave up the idea of persuading her again.
As a ship girl of Donghuang, Ning Hai is very conscious. Her conscience tells her that she cannot just eat and drink for free, so she strongly requests to go to the kitchen to help Yixian.
The young commander had no objection to this, and Yixian was of course very welcome. So Ninghai took advantage of Pinghai's absence to enter the kitchen and became a glorious member of the kitchen.
Dunzi (cut vegetables, side dishes).
It’s not that Yixian didn’t let her cook, it’s just that she herself is not very good at cooking.
Before, Ninghai’s family was too poor, so he could only cook simple things, such as noodles or porridge.
She had no money to buy meat, let alone use it to cook. If she really had a piece of meat, she would have pickled it, smoked it, made it into bacon, and then divided it into 49 meals, and eaten it for two or three months to be satisfied.
Therefore, Ning Hai is really useless in cooking. She can get excited for a long time just by touching beef, so how can we expect her to cook any dish?
However, Ning Hai has done some research on knife skills. He can cut food as finely as he wants and slice it as thinly as he wants. The reason why he has developed such extraordinary knife skills is because he is poor.
In order to make the limited ingredients produce effects beyond their own size, Ning Hai did a lot of research in the basement.
If you buy a potato as a vegetable, you have to peel it, right?
If the potatoes were peeled too thick, some of them would be wasted, which Ning Hai could not tolerate. So she spent a lot of time and carefully peeled them for a long time, and finally only scraped off the thin layer of potato skin without damaging the potatoes.
Every bit.
Speaking of shredding, in order to be able to eat more meals and create the illusion of a large quantity, the shreds must be very thin, so that there will be a sense of space when stacked, and it will be easier to feel satisfied when eating.
Ninghai did everything he could to save money, and it was hard not to improve his knife skills.
Yixian praised Ninghai's knife skills and decided to take this opportunity to teach Ninghai how to cook, so that in the future, no matter who follows the little commander out, they can take care of the little commander's dietary health.
Ning Hai didn’t want to learn it at first, because if the dish was burnt or the wrong amount of seasoning was used, no one would eat the whole dish, which she thought was a waste.
Yixian tried his best to persuade Ning Hai, and promised to re-use the failed dishes. Only then did Ning Hai feel relieved and he timidly followed Yixian to learn cooking.
At first, I saw Ninghai heating up the pan, adding oil, and stir-frying the vegetables. Everything went smoothly. I didn't expect that the problem came with the seasoning step.
"...Put more."
“No, no, no, no… I’ve already put enough chicken essence in there…” Ning Hai had a sad face and refused to do anything.
Yixian frowned and patted the back of Ninghai's hand, watching her shake some chicken essence into the spoon in her hand, "Okay, now let's add some salt?"
"Chicken essence... doesn't it have flavor? Salt shouldn't be used..."
Yixian suddenly realized that Ninghai's problem seemed to be much more serious than she had imagined, so she reached out and grabbed Ninghai's hand, forced Ninghai to scoop a certain amount of salt with a spoon, and then forced her to put the salt into the pot.
Ning Hai looked depressed, as if he had thrown a handful of money in, which made Yixian laugh helplessly, "Why do you feel so distressed? Salt shouldn't be expensive..."
"You know, I have to take care of Pinghai." Ninghai explained with a frown, "I always have to buy some vegetables to adjust the nutrition."
"There was a heavy rainstorm once, and the basement was dripping so much, but we didn't pay attention to it. As a result, the next day, half a bag of salt was poured out, and a lot of water flowed out of the basement."
Ning Hai sighed, "Then we had no salt to eat for half a month."
Yixian wanted to laugh but felt it was inappropriate. After thinking for a while, he patted Ninghai's head and comforted him, "After coming here, you don't have to calculate so...precisely."
"Well... no! Waste is shameful! We must take it seriously!"
Yixian sighed, "But if you don't add soy sauce, it will burn dry..."
“Oh? Ah! Ahhhhhhh! Soy… soy sauce, soy sauce!”
"...Pour a little more."
"A lot more! Look, Sister Yixian, the color has changed!"
"...
The two of them argued for a long time over the seasoning process, which resulted in the dish missing its best time to be served, and it became a failure that was dry and a bit charcoal-black.
Yixian looked at the food in the pot with a troubled expression, "This...can't be saved..."
"No...can't waste it!"
So during dinner that night, the young commander saw Ning Hai frowning and eating a dark brown dish in front of him. The more determined his eyes were when he picked up the food, the uglier his expression became after he took a bite.
"......What's wrong with Ning Hai? Is he suffering from pica?"
"She insists on saving food." Yixian replied with a smile, and picked up a piece of the farthest dish for the little commander with a chopstick, "So Susu can't be picky about food. You have to finish your meal, okay?"
Su Xin looked at the fish mint leaves in the bowl and said, "Ugh."
Chapter 255 On Growth
Portland finally stopped concentrating on making clothes, raised his little face and stuck to Indy again, which made Indy breathe a sigh of relief.
After all, my sister is always by my side, warm and intimate, and would give me some clothes, pants and even underwear that she made by herself.
Although the styles are very beautiful and in line with Indy's own temperament, Indy actually doesn't want to keep accepting the kindness from Portland. But she doesn't have anything to show for herself, so every time she receives a gift, she feels very embarrassed.
Very reluctantly.
Portland finally became quiet for a while because of the departure of the little commander. Indy felt relieved but also a little worried.
Because as time goes by, Portland, which used to be so clingy every day, now shows no sign of sticking around at all. This should not be possible.
The longer the time went on, the more worried Indy became. He almost called the repair ship Mingmiao for advice. Fortunately, the young commander returned to the port, and Portland became his usual self, walking towards Indy with a pile of clothes in his arms.
"Ah! Indy~" Portland's expression was bright and smiling when he saw Indy, "You came at the right time, come and try the new clothes I made for you, it must suit you very well~"
Indy was reluctant at first, but then she thought that this was the first time Portland had given her clothes since June, and it would not be good to refuse. So Indy thanked him and picked up the top piece in Portland's arms.
This is a short-sleeved top, made of excellent materials, with a simple design and a short hem. It belongs to the category of belly-exposing clothes, but compared with the fancy lace and ribbons in the past, this one seems normal and is something that Indy can wear out.
clothes.
Indy nodded to show that he liked it, and looked at the next one.
This seemed to be a dress, and a very tight one at that. Indy felt that she might not be able to wear it. She was about to say that there seemed to be something wrong with the size when she heard Portland exclaim "Ah".
"This isn't for Indy-chan, it's for the Commander..."
Yin was stunned and silently put down the skirt in her hand. She just held her short-sleeved shirt in her arms and looked at her sister with a very complicated look.
"In...Indy-chan...?"
"Watch
Not long after Commander Su arrived at his post, Portland rushed in with a pile of clothes, followed by Indy who seemed to be in a less than enthusiastic mood.
"Sister Portland? What's wrong?"
"Ah... Commander, I'm here to bring you some clothes!" Portland said, "Hey whoosh," and threw a bunch of clothes in his arms onto the sofa. "I made them all myself, huh? Try them on and see if they fit you, Commander."
The young commander stood up from his seat, feeling very curious, "Haven't I been away for less than a month? How come there are so many clothes..."
"Hehe... I have a lot of time... so I will just do it slowly..."
Su Xin looked at the pile of various clothes. Regardless of the styles, the thoughtfulness alone was enough to move the little commander.
But she still had a question after being touched, "Why didn't Sister Portland put these in the space, but brought them here herself?"
"Ah... these are only a part of it, because there is no more room in the space... hehe..."
Su Xin was stunned for a moment, silently calculated the number, and was immediately shocked. When Yindi heard this, his face darkened eight degrees.
Since Portland had already delivered the clothes to Su Xin, she had no choice but to wear them, so the little commander picked up the top dress and went to the bathroom to change clothes.
The main color of the dress is pure white, but it is not too reflective and glaring. The sleeves are a little short, as is the hem. After Su Xin put it on, she felt something was strange, but she looked at herself in the mirror and found nothing unusual, so she
She opened the door and walked out.
I thought I would only have to endure the gazes of Portland and Indy, but when I went out, I found that the command room was full of people.
As soon as they saw the little conductor, they started to make a noise, praising her good looks and her beautiful clothes. Phoenix even whistled, making little conductor Su blush.
"How is it? Commander, do you like it?" Portland asked expectantly.
Su Xin felt uncomfortable speaking the truth in front of so many people, for fear of disappointing Portland's enthusiasm, so she only said good things to make Portland happy.
"This one, this one, you should try this one too! The denim style is really cool!"
