Chen Xu put down the bowls and chopsticks, and Yang Jinxia, who had finished eating before him, stood up and began to pick up the dishes on the table. His movements were very natural, as if he was used to cooking.
He moved his butt/butt on the chair with some unease, stood up, and said, "Let me help you."
As he said that, he picked up the soup pot, saw that there was still some soup in it, and didn't know what to do with it, so he asked her, "Do you want this more?"
"No more, throw it away." Yang Jinxia raised his head and smiled at him, and said.
Chen Xu walked into the kitchen with the pot in his hand, looked at the stove and the sink, not knowing where to put it, bent down to look, and there was no trash can underneath.
After he moved here, he hasn't cooked here yet. He always eats nutritious meals, mainly to save time. Of course, the price of various fresh ingredients is also one aspect.
At this time, Yang Jinxia came in with a bowl, and seeing that he was at a loss with the pot, he couldn't help laughing, and said, "Just pour it into the sink. There is a kitchen waste treatment device in the sewer, so don't worry about clogging."
Only then did Chen Xu pour the whole pot into the sink, and said with a dry smile, "I didn't expect that it's the space age, and the kitchen is no different from ours."
"Yeah, I guess the people on the spaceship must have longed for life on Earth." Yang Jinxia said, put on her apron, and started to wash the dishes.
Chen Xu couldn't just stand beside him, but there was no place in front of the sink. So, I took a look outside, picked up the rag and went out, wiping the table again.
Looking back, she saw that she was still washing the dishes. After thinking about it, she simply wiped the chairs as well.
After Yang Jinxia finished washing the dishes, he went in and put the rag back in place.
"Well, I'm going back to my room." He wiped his hands with a dry cloth and told her.
She had already sat on the sofa and said, "I remember you don't take a nap."
"I'll go in and read."
"Or, watch it in the living room?" Yang Jinxia looked at him with pleading eyes, "I stay at home alone every day, it's boring, I want you to spend more time with me. I won't disturb you."
Chen Xu thought about how she would be in a daze at home alone every day, and couldn't bear to refuse, and said, "That's fine." He sat on the sofa, turned on the light screen, and looked at it.
Yang Jinxia sat on the other side of the sofa, drew his feet up, and was also looking at the light screen, his eyes swept over Chen Xu's face on the other side from time to time.
Neither of them spoke, the living room was very quiet, only the sound of each other's breathing.
However, Chen Xu had a feeling that was different from usual, and his heart was peaceful and warm.
... ... ...
In the afternoon, in the cockpit, Chen Xu was still sitting there, looking at the screen in front of him, his eyes scanning the position of the time display in the lower right corner.
Eleven past three.
"This is the sixteenth time you have been distracted since the afternoon, and the frequency is 300% higher than usual." Taichu's voice suddenly sounded.
He said, "I just check the time, but you, if you don't make a sound, I won't be distracted."
"You are a little abnormal this afternoon. Is it because you had dinner with your wife at noon?"
"You talk a lot today." Chen Xu raised his head warily and glanced at the circular device on the top, which is where the camera is located.
Taichu said, "Besides work, it is also my duty to care about the captain's life and emotional state. Human beings are not machines, and it is impossible to keep focused all the time. Only by paying attention all the time can help you better manage the Dawn."
"You say what you say one by one. The one who set up the language module for you at the beginning couldn't be an old fritter with a mixed agency." Chen Xu said with a smile.
After chatting for a few words, he continued to read.
In fact, what Tai Chu said was right, he was indeed not very focused in the afternoon, and after reading a book for a while, he felt a little bored, always thinking about when it was time to get off work.
He knew that he was looking forward to returning home. Therefore, we will frequently pay attention to time.
He shook his head, trying to put these distracting thoughts behind him.
Finally, it was time to get off work.
The working hours on the Shuguang are not much different from those on Earth, but the working hours have increased a bit. In management positions, at least ten hours a day is required.
It was already seven o'clock when he got off work.
When he got back to the door, he was inexplicably nervous. When he opened the door, he saw a busy figure in the kitchen, and a warm current surged in his heart.
"You're back." The sound of cooking came from the kitchen, saying, "The dishes are not ready yet. There are fruits on the table. You should eat some first to fill your stomach."
"It's okay, I'm not very hungry." Chen Xu put down the things in his hands, walked to the door of the kitchen, saw that there were still two cut vegetables not fried, and asked, "Do you need me?"
"No, you go out and wait."
Chen Xu saw that she insisted on doing it by himself, so he didn't insist, and stood there watching. Her movements were very rusty, and it looked like she hadn't been in the kitchen much, but the steps were very clear, and there was no such thing as forgetting to put salt or other seasonings.
He can be regarded as a semi-professional chef. Just by watching her cooking process, he knows that the dishes will not be too unpalatable.
When she finished frying a dish, he would take it out for her, and set up the dishes by the way. When the last dish was finished, the two of them sat down and started to eat dinner.
"How is it?" Yang Jinxia looked at him expectantly.
Chen Xu tasted every dish, finally nodded and said, "It's pretty good."
She was a little disappointed, "That is to say, not good enough."
"It's good enough for someone who hasn't cooked a few times. When I started cooking for myself, my level was far behind yours."
"Although I am very happy, I know you are comforting me, and I will work hard to learn."
Chen Xu said, "You don't have to do this, I'm not picky eaters."
She said, "Here, that's all I can do for you. I can't help you much else."
Chen Xu put down the chopsticks in his hand and said, "Actually, you don't have to be so nice to me."
She looked a little surprised, "I'm not good to you, who is good to me? Do you want me to find another man?"
Chen Xu couldn't help but be at a loss for words, he absolutely couldn't do it if he was asked to agree against his will.
"If one day, we can return to the earth, back to the original time, I will definitely not disturb your life. But, here, there are no other human beings, only the two of us, I hope you can stay with me By my side, be happy, and count as a day after the end of the day.”
Yang Jinxia said, and put a piece of meat in his bowl, "Even if you still have concerns, it doesn't matter, as long as you can stay with me."
Chen Xu looked at the several dishes on the table, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
ps: I'm a little tired today, that's all.
