"Come, drink some soup first and try my handiwork."
Ji Xueqing quickly brought out a bowl for Xiaoman, and then took a spoon to help Yin Xiu fill a bowl of winter melon and pork ribs soup and handed it over.
When Xiao Man saw Yin Xiu taking the bowl, he immediately scratched his head and screamed at Yin Xiu. From time to time, he stretched out his little tongue and licked his lips twice. He stared at the fragrant meat and bones in Yin Xiu's bowl and salivated.
When Ji Xueqing saw this, she burst out laughing, looked at Xiaoman and said, "I'll serve it to you right away, don't worry!"
After saying that, Ji Xueqing picked up the bowl given to Xiaoman and said to Yin Xiu with a smile: "Is Xiaoman always so greedy? Geez, it's so cute."
Yin Xiu touched his nose, glanced at Xiaoman who was standing directly on the dining table, and said, "The little guy is indeed a greedy snacker."
Ji Xueqing smiled and put the filled bowl in front of Xiaoman, and called Yin Xiu again, "Yin Xiu, eat it and taste it."
"okay."
Yin Xiu picked up the bowl and took a sip of the soup. Although it was not very delicious, it was rich in aroma and moderate in taste. Still very good.
Of course, the reason why this soup is a little less delicious is mainly because of the ingredients used to make the soup.
For people who are accustomed to eating various spiritual fruits and elixirs in the world of cultivation, if they eat soup made from ordinary pig bones in this secular world, they will naturally feel the shortcomings in the taste.
Especially now that most of the ingredients sold on the market are produced by feeding with various hormones, feeds, etc., the taste is even worse.
But Yin Xiu is not that particular. He hadn't eaten food for many years, and now a mouthful of fragrant and rich soup made him feel lingering aftertaste.
"How is the taste?"
When Ji Xueqing saw Yin Xiu drinking the soup, she immediately looked at him expectantly.
Yin Xiu smiled slightly, put down the bowl, and said to Ji Xueqing: "It's very good, the taste is moderate, and the simmering time is enough. The soup has a strong fragrance in your mouth..."
"Really? Hehe, then you can try other dishes."
Ji Xueqing laughed happily.
The little man next to him also held the small bowl in front of him and drank a few mouthfuls of soup. His little tongue stretched out to lick his lips from time to time, with a look of enjoyment on his face.
Xiaoman, who had always only eaten various spiritual fruits or elixirs, tasted this very different taste for the first time, and obviously liked it very much. After putting the bowl down, he immediately grabbed a piece of ribs from the bowl with his two little paws, held it and started to chew on it...
Ji Xueqing seemed to have a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction when she saw Xiaoman's "gobbling" look, smiling and looking at it with great interest.
While Xiaoman just immersed himself in eating, Yin Xiu and Ji Xueqing chatted while eating.
Yin Xiu's rescue that night and the brief conversation between the two in the morning made Ji Xueqing have a good impression of Yin Xiu. Otherwise, she wouldn't have invited Yin Xiu to her home for dinner tonight.
"By the way, Yin Xiu, I heard you say in the morning that you have been studying in the mountains. What are your plans in the future?"
Yin Xiu shook his head and said: "I don't have any specific ideas for the time being. Let's settle down for the time being. The rest will depend on the situation."
This is true. Yin Xiu, at least for now, has no special goals or plans. If anything, the only clear thought is that I hope my state of mind can be perfect, my cultivation can take that step, and I can break through to the stage of transcending tribulation.
This is also the reason why he returned to Earth from the world of cultivation on the other side of the distant starry sky, not far away for hundreds of millions of light years.
It's just about how to achieve a perfect state of mind... This is not something Yin Xiu can achieve subjectively.
Or it can be said that this is something that cannot be traced at all. Maybe a sudden flash of enlightenment in his mind at a certain moment will make him take this step, or maybe, after ten or eight years, or even tens of hundreds of years, he may not be able to take this step.
"Don't have any plans yet?"
Ji Xueqing murmured, her eyes suddenly brightened, and she said to Yin Xiu: "Otherwise, you don't have any plans right now. If you don't mind, how about coming to work with me in the company? I just need an assistant to help me handle it. Some things, why don’t you give it a try.”
"If you feel uncomfortable by then, how about making other plans?"
Yin Xiu didn't expect Ji Xueqing to suddenly make such a suggestion. But it can also be seen that she is really sincere, and it is not a false courtesy.
But Yin Xiu was still a little surprised.
"Is this appropriate? You also know that I have been studying in the mountains, but I don't have a diploma from an outside school. I also have certain deficiencies in certain aspects of ability. Can it meet the requirements of your company?"
Ji Xueqing didn't care much about this and said: "It doesn't matter. The company I work for doesn't value diplomas so much. Diplomas don't mean everything. Besides, even if you don't understand something then you can just come directly. Ask me and I’ll teach you!”
Ji Xueqing felt that Yin Xiu had just come out of the closed mountain to the outside world, and it seemed that he had no relatives or friends in Yinhai City, so he felt that it was necessary to help Yin Xiu. At least it allowed him to slowly find his feet.
Ji Xueqing only regards Yin Xiu as an ordinary person who always needs to spend money on food and accommodation when living outside. Yin Xiu is unemployed now. Even if he has some savings, he can't just sit back and have nothing, right
Ji Xueqing had pure good intentions and a certain affection for Yin Xiu, so she wanted to try her best to help him.
Yin Xiu hesitated for a moment, looked at Ji Xueqing's sincere eyes across from him, and thought to himself that since he didn't have any other plans now, why not just listen to Ji Xueqing's suggestion and go to work in her company for the time being
Experience the life of an office worker in a modern city for yourself.
Hmm... It seems to be okay. Anyway, I don’t know when I will be able to be in a perfect state of mind and take that step. Now, being idle every day is just idle, but it's actually very boring.
After all, he is currently at a bottleneck in cultivation, and no matter how much he cultivates, he cannot increase the true energy in his body even a little bit. It is also a good choice to find something to do for yourself and experience life as an ordinary person.
"Well... OK. But will this make it difficult for you? After all, I don't have any diploma. Is your company boss or manager willing to recruit someone like me who knows nothing and has nothing? "
Hearing Yin Xiu's agreement, Ji Xueqing immediately responded happily: "Don't worry, as long as you think there's no problem. I can handle everything. There's nothing difficult or difficult to do, hehe!"
Ji Xueqing narrowed her eyes and laughed. With a bit of girlish innocence. She doesn't seem to be very old. She is probably around twenty-three or four years old at most. She has a somewhat girlish heart and is quite normal.
After all, the current era is very different from when Yin Xiu was 'young'. A girl in her twenties, thirties, or fourteen years old has just stepped out of college. It still retains a bit of girlish innocence.
