Chapter 57 Start decorating
Other fruits are also handled smoothly. Apples, pears, and peaches are peeled and cored with golden fingers, cut into teeth with a click, and put into crisper boxes before they have time to oxidize and stored in the space; or they can be cut in half without packing. The box can be opened and chewed directly after you get it in your hand.
Put the crisper box in front of you, spread your palm on it, and release the real seedless pomegranate grains into it; grapefruit even breaks down the white film, and the pulp is perfectly separated with just a light break; oranges don't do this, just Decompose the outer skin, then break it into two halves, and you can eat one piece directly.
In fact, not all fruits need to be put in the crisper. Only those that have lost their peel need a container to contain them - not even necessarily. If it weren't for the sense of ritual when she eats the fruits, they would not be put in the box and released directly from the space. It's not impossible in the mouth.
At the same time, there are some fruits that are more convenient not to be put into containers, such as lychees.
Handfuls of lychees chilled in the refrigerator are very convenient to eat. Just use your golden fingers to break down the shell and core and transfer them directly to your mouth, so you can taste the special sweetness without missing a drop of juice.
Naturally, there is no need to put fresh lychees with shells and branches into crispers. If they are properly processed and then packed, the tender and juicy pulp will lose its internal and external support, and it will be too easy to be squeezed. Although time stands still in space, the flavor will definitely be greatly reduced from the moment it is taken out.
There are also longan, rambutan, or the equally soft mangosteen, which are similar to lychees. If the hard outer shell is removed and the supporting core is decomposed, they may collapse even if they are left alone.
The fruits that Wei Jiaoju has been working on in the kitchen for a long time, whether cutting them into pieces or breaking down the cores and seeds, are kept in the space at the freshest, coolest and most pleasant moment.
When she got tired of processing the fruit, she went back to the bedroom to check the computer. The download progressed faster than she thought, and the computer almost ran out of things to download. Wei Jiao was so frightened that she quickly pulled the torrent file and loaded it up.
Then I took a little break from my busy life, leaned on the bed, and continued to cache radio programs on my mobile phone. In her mouth was the kiwi fruit that the cook secretly ate. This pure sweet and de-acidified variety cured her of the problem of sour water in her mouth when she thought of the word "kiwi fruit" for many years.
At noon, I made do with a box lunch from the space, continued to process the fruits, and started to focus on making pasta in the afternoon.
When it comes to hot dishes and cold dishes, she naturally dare not say that her craftsmanship is comparable to that of restaurants outside, but when it comes to dumplings and steamed buns, the fillings made by herself are irreplaceable.
My favorite pork stuffing with sauerkraut and beef stuffing with white radish is skillfully minced, seasoned, and stirred. I move a chair and put a tablet next to it, so I can make it while watching the show. The bun is pulled and pulled to create layers of folds, and is shaped in the hand; the left, middle and right sides of the dumpling are pinched, and the remaining open dough is pressed out with folds, and then shaped into a crescent moon.
Now that we’re making pastries, we don’t miss anything else: big soft steamed buns, big and round scallion pancakes, thin spring cakes and sweet sugar cakes, and a few twists for decoration, the whole kitchen is full of deliciousness. The aroma of pastry fills the air.
I just ate a few big buns in the evening, which were just right when dipped in vinegar. After finishing the meal, I took a rest and started to cut the fruit again, while the big pot next to me was steaming the fruits of today's labor. The mobile air conditioner loaded with frozen food and ice water has begun to work conscientiously, and the effect is not bad. She can stay in the kitchen comfortably all day.
Time flew by while busy. When Wei Jiao washed away the kitchen smell, her computer had just finished downloading another collection.
She filled up the download list with satisfaction, went to the memo to cross out items, and then finally leaned back comfortably on the bed, scrolling through the cached radio programs on her phone.
An uneventful night passed. Wei Jiao got up early and put all the large items in the house such as beds, sofas, coffee tables, etc. into the space, trying to present a bare appearance suitable for applying heat and sound insulation materials, and then put All the materials needed today are placed in the living room.
She had taken the time to communicate with the decoration team yesterday, and they could help her put up the materials, and it could be done in one day.
The washing machine and refrigerator have also entered the space and continue to shine and heat. Of course, the computer still works outside in an environment with network access.
She kept the old refrigerator in the kitchen and put some freshly purchased mineral water, juice and soda in it. She also put a few bottles of room temperature outside for the decoration team. The wrapped gifts were also put aside, waiting for the opportunity to be given.
The decoration team arrived on time. Wei Jiao went to pick up the people at the gate of the community and watched them fill in the visitor registration form one by one. She felt quite safe.
After leading the way home, the six of us entered the air-conditioned room and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Wei Jiao rubbed her hands: "Well... this is the bathroom. It's too hot. You can wash your face or something. Uh... there's cold water and drinks in the refrigerator over there. If you can't drink cold drinks, there's room temperature ones next to it. Whatever. Drink..."
"I'll wipe my face first. It's so uncomfortable to sweat..." Sister Ma was wearing a red and white plaid shirt and a white peaked cap. Her face was sunburned under the brim of the hat, so she hurriedly went in to boil water to wash her face.
Wei Jiao and a few others walked into the house, pointed to the decoration materials placed in the center of the living room, and then pointed to the location of the refrigerator.
The two elders brought three younger ones. Wei Jiao looked at them and estimated that they were not much older than herself. One of them looked obviously childish, with two clusters of red on his cheeks.
Several people took water to drink, and watched the youngest girl take a bottle of soda, swallow it with a frown on her face, and then smiled happily, showing her white teeth, and said to her: "Thank you, sister!"
Wei Jiao was so surprised that she felt a little embarrassed to thank her.
Sister Ma came out after washing her face, drank two mouthfuls of water, and then started drying.
Change the doors first, starting with the bedroom door. The division of labor was clear. They dismantled, delivered, and moved very neatly. However, Wei Jiao didn't know what to do, so she could only browse the cache on her phone while standing in a place that would not interfere with other people's work. Crane your neck to see what's going on.
Guessing that what she described with her golden finger was something good, Sister Ma and another older person named Liu took the lead and explained it to the three young people. Wei Jiao tried to follow along, but the lines were separated by a mountain. After a few words, it was like a math class, and I lost track of him as soon as I lowered my head and then raised my head.
Probably after the key points were painted, the soldiers split into two groups. The two older ones continued to install the door, while the three younger ones entered the bedroom and began to put up heat and sound insulation materials.
Wei Jiao watched from the side, not knowing how to do it. She pulled and tore, pulled and stuck, and then took out a shovel-like object and scraped and pressed. The piece of material was perfectly attached to the wall, and then the three of them continued. Match it with the next piece.
To be honest, if it wasn't inappropriate, Wei Jiao would have wanted to record it and keep it.
Doesn’t this look more exciting than the decoration videos on the Internet?
