Game World: Am I a toy of the system?

When Bai Xiaotao came back with the wine jar, this was the scene she saw, dazzling and helpless.

Chen Xi put a piece of boiled lamb tripe into Yao Jun's bowl, then looked at Bai Xiaotao who had returned and said, "Xiao Luo, teach Master Mu Zhao how to eat it later."

Xiao Luo nodded: "Okay Miss."

Picking up the lamb tripe and putting it into his mouth, Yao Jun stood up and walked over, took a can of wine from Bai Xiaotao's arms, and said with a smile: "Let's go eat, it's quite simple and delicious."

Bai Xiaotao nodded slightly without saying anything. She put the other can of wine in the corner of the front hall, sat down at the table, picked up the chopsticks, then looked at the ingredients and the small tripod on the table, but didn't know how to start.

Xiao Luo left her seat, walked to Bai Xiaotao, picked up a pair of serving chopsticks on the table, picked up a piece of mutton, and whispered how to eat it.

The method of eating hot pot is very simple. Bai Xiaotao is not a fool. She figured it out after boiling a few slices of mutton herself. The rest is to master the best boiling time for each ingredient.

Bai Xiaotao didn't expect that just by blanching it and coating it with the prepared dipping sauce, the mutton would taste so delicious.

No one had discovered this way of eating before, after all, the meat was just cut into thin slices. However, Bai Xiaotao soon discovered that the milky white soup in the pot was the soul!

Looking up at Chen Xi opposite her, although Bai Xiaotao didn't really want her to be her stepmother, she had to admit that her cooking skills were really good!

Feeling someone was looking at him, Chen Xi turned around and saw that it was Bai Xiaotao. He was not surprised at all and nodded with a smile, saying, "We are quite pressed for time today, so we don't have time to prepare many ingredients suitable for hot pot. I will prepare them for you later."

Bai Xiaotao nodded without saying anything, but she couldn't help but feel curious about the ingredients she had never seen before.

After eating and drinking, this time Yao Jun did not just stand there and watch, but rolled up his sleeves and helped with the work. Bai Xiaotao was so surprised that she also stood up to help clear the table.

Chen Xi looked at Yao Jun and his son with some surprise and said, "Just take a rest. Leave these tasks to Xiao Luo and me."

"Just leave this work to us, you can take a rest."

Yao Jun cleaned up the dishes quickly and handed them to Bai Xiaotao. Then, without fear of the heat, he picked up the dishes and the small tripod in the charcoal basin and took them to the kitchen.

Chen Xi didn't really rest in the house. He followed Yao Jun to the kitchen. Looking at Yao Jun and Bai Xiaotao who were skillfully washing the dishes, he said, "They are quite skilled."

Bai Xiaotao didn't say anything and concentrated on her work. When she was hanging out with her father outside, they both did everything by themselves, so this job was no problem for her.

Yao Jun turned his head and smiled, "You don't think I traveled the world at the age of 15 with servants around me, do you? Just like those gilded young masters."

Chen Xi nodded. She really thought so before. She chuckled and said, "But now I believe it. You clean the dishes better than me and you clean them clean."

Yao Jun: "I haven't done it for several years, so my hands are not used to it anymore."

Chen Xi knew he was talking about what happened after he was injured, so he joked, "You can do more in the future, and you will become more skilled."

Yao Jun raised his eyebrows and looked at her with a mysterious smile on his face: "Really? Then I will find a way to do more in the future!"

Chen Xi frowned. Although she could hear that the tone was not right, she couldn't figure out what was wrong with the sentence. She was not in a good mood, so she had to find something for the person to do.

Chen Xi said calmly: "You don't need to figure it out. Just come over to eat and I'll leave the dishes to you."

"Sure." Not only did Yao Jun not refuse, he even felt better.

After washing the dishes, Yao Jun and Bai Xiaotao handed the kitchen to Chen Xi and Xiao Luo.

Because they had hotpot today, there wasn't much to clean up in the kitchen, so Chen Xi wanted to boil a pot of water and take a bath later.

There is no air conditioning now, and she is soaked, so Chen Xi said: "Yao Jun, you have sweated a lot, go back and take a shower and change clothes before going to the party."

Yao Jun nodded and asked, "What about you?"

"I'll boil some water now, but... I don't want to go to the party again." Chen Xi didn't know what was wrong with him. His thoughts kept changing and were so chaotic that it was annoying.

Bai Xiaotao frowned when she heard this, "This is a banquet hosted by Queen Meng..."

Before she could finish her words, Yao Jun interrupted her with a wave of his hand: "Xiao Tao, if your aunt Xi doesn't want to go, then don't go."

Bai Xiaotao was frightened, thinking that her father had called the wrong name, so she quickly walked over and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Father, you called the wrong name."

Yao Jun raised his hand and ruffled his adopted daughter's hair, and said with a smile: "Xiao Xi is not an outsider, she will know one day."

My father is really crazy! He has only known this woman for a few days!

Bai Xiaotao said in a serious tone, "Father, can you please not tell her for now?"

Yao Jun frowned, narrowed his eyes slightly, and stared at Bai Xiaotao, wanting an explanation.

Facing such a father, Bai Xiaotao was also frightened, but she still looked at him stubbornly and refused to give in!

At this time, Chen Xi came out of the kitchen carrying a small wooden barrel. Seeing that the atmosphere between them was not right, he asked, "Mr. Yao, Mr. Mu Zhao, what's wrong with you?"

Bai Xiaotao felt as if a mountain of weight had collapsed on her body. She took a few breaths of relief, glanced at Chen Xi, turned around and walked towards the gate.

You want me to thank you? No way!

Yao Jun's eyes darkened, then he said to Chen Xi with a smile, "It's okay. I just had a small conflict with her. We will talk it out later."

Chen Xi: "Oh, Master Mu Zhao is still young, don't be too strict."

Yao Junrushan's tall and straight figure softened instantly, his eyes softened, and he readily agreed, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Why do we feel like an old married couple?

Chen Xi blushed for no apparent reason, and turned his head away pretending not to care: "You guys should go back and change your clothes, don't delay us."

"Ah."

Yao Jun took two steps towards the wheelchair, then turned around and said, "Xiao Xi, go to bed later. I have something to tell you when you come back."

"What's the matter? Why can't you tell me now?" Chen Xi said.

"I'll talk to you when I get back. Now I'm leaving."

Yao Jun walked to the wheelchair and sat down. Bai Xiaotao pushed the wheelchair and left without even saying hello.

Watching their backs as they left, Chen Xi looked toward the kitchen door, shrugged at Xiao Luo who had just come out, and said, "Maybe this is the complicated relationship between stepmother and stepson."

Xiao Luo came over and whispered, "Miss, just now I heard the young master call Mr. Mu Zhao Xiao Tao, did you hear it?"

Chen Xi nodded thoughtfully.

"Maybe I shouted the wrong thing. Whatever, let's go get some water. It's so uncomfortable to be all sticky."

Xiao Luo saw that Chen Xi didn't want to say more, so she agreed and didn't mention it again.

Today is the day of full moon, the weather is fine, the night sky is clear, a brilliant Milky Way stretches across the sky, and a silver disk hangs high in the sky.

There was a small table and three small chairs in the small courtyard. There were six kinds of snacks and a pot of hot tea on the table.

After taking a shower and changing into dry clothes, Chen Xi sat on a small chair, leaned back, and looked at the full moon in the sky.

"It's so big."

In modern times, Chen Xi often enjoys the moon and drinks tea alone, which is a little hobby.

After traveling back to ancient times, I would occasionally take advantage of my free time to prepare some snacks, a bowl of tea, and sit alone in the backyard to admire the moon.

Then she discovered that the moon of this era was really big. If the modern moon was compared to a silver plate, the moon of this era was like a basin.
