C57 Apprentice

Right now, this was the only thing that Bai Xian could do. After leaving the logistics officer's tent, she went straight to the tents where the women and children lived.

Relying on his good culinary skills, Bai Xian had already become a celebrity in the army camp. Once she walked in, everyone's gaze turned towards her.

Bai Xian coughed lightly: "Hello, my name is Bai Xian. I'm here to ask if any of you want to learn how to cook.

After she finished speaking, she saw the expressions of many people moving, and smiled as they returned to their own tents. Bai’s mother was sitting under the lamp sewing on clothes, so Bai Xian immediately went forward to pick up the clothes: "Mother, let me do it.

Bai’s mother grumbled: "Xian Er, your mother is still young. You treat me like an old man and don't let me do this, you don't let me do this either."

Bai Xian intimately leaned on Bai’s mother's shoulder: "Mother, I like you to rest. Your body is weak, so it won't hurt to rest a little more."

Bai’s mother pinched Bai Xian's nose: "You, ah, I know you pity Mother, but Mother loves you too. You are so tired from cooking all day, Mother wants to help you."

In order to prevent Bai’s mother from getting tired, every time Bai Xian went to the kitchen, it was like she was a thief. She would go and do some preparations beforehand, and by the time Bai’s mother arrived at the kitchen, Bai Xian would already be done.

Bai Xian had already made up her mind long ago not to let Bai’s mother work at all if she could let her rest. Thus, no matter what Bai’s mother said, she would not let him toil even a little bit.

"Mom, you don't have to worry. Tomorrow, I plan to teach people how to cook. When there are more people who can cook, I won't have to work hard anymore."

Bai’s mother nodded his head: "Did the leader of the army agree?"

Bai Xian laughed proudly: "Don't worry, mother. Just now, Big Brother Da Hu and I went to ask the logistics officer, he had already approved it. Mother, did Little Xiu go learn kung fu from Brother Cao San?"

Today was Bai Xiu's first day of learning martial arts with him. Bai Xian thought to himself, he didn't know if Bai Xiu could endure the hardship of learning martial arts, in this chaotic world, one must first have the ability to protect themselves.

The Bai’s mother was also worried about Bai Xiu, so the two of them had been chatting and waiting for Bai Xiu to return. An hour later, heavy footsteps came from outside the tent, and Bai Xian got up to open the curtain to see the bitter faced Bai Xiu.

Upon seeing Bai Xian, Bai Xiu kept back the expression on his face, as though the past two hours of horse stance was nothing to him, "Sister, I'm back."

Bai Xian did not expose Bai Xiu's disguise as she thought that her little brother was really too sensible and too kind. "Little Xiu, how's your study today, are you tired?"

Bai Xiu said calmly: "Big Brother Cao San said that I was too skinny and lacked strength, causing me to squat for two hours in horse stance."

The brother and sister duo returned to their tents. Not long later, the Bai’s mother turned out the lights for everyone to rest.

Right now, Bai Xian allowed her to think about Song Yue every night before she went to bed. Of course, sometimes she would also think about the modern Shao Yue, Shao Yue.

Bai Xian laughed bitterly. Actually, these were all her fantasies, in the modern world, when she worked hard to get close to Shao Yue for a year, Shao Yue had only treated her as an ordinary friend. On the other hand, ever since they first met, Song Yue had always taken the initiative to help her.

Maybe this was God's compensation to him? Bai Xian slowly thought that, in the face of the God Lord, she had no strength to retort and could only strive to walk forward. She would definitely not give up so easily and she would absolutely not sit still and wait for death.

The next morning, Bai Xian washed up simply and headed towards the kitchen. When she saw the group of people standing at the entrance of the kitchen, she was nearly shocked. When she went to ask yesterday, there was no response.

Ma Dahu squeezed out of the crowd with difficulty: "Bai Xian, they are all here to learn to cook."

Bai Xian nodded her head calmly, just now she had counted a total of eight people other than herself. She said loudly: "Since everyone is here to learn how to cook from me, then you all must follow my orders.

In the ancient times, ordinary girls would always cook after marriage. Seeing that everyone had raised their hands, Bai Xian nodded to himself.

"Alright, since everyone knows how to cook, let's prepare the ingredients we need this morning. I'll open fire later and teach you how to cook."

The few girls who came to learn how to cook from Bai Xian were all passionate people. Not long later, everyone started to work and chat, and Bai Xian found out about everyone's situation. Of course, she was most concerned about a girl her own age.

When the city was surrounded by the Chu Jun, she and her mother went to visit her grandfather's home outside the city, which was how they managed to escape from the calamity. However, not long after, the enemy attacked their grandfather's village, and their grandfather's family was killed by the Chu Jun.

When Bai Xian heard of the girl's tragic encounter, he couldn't help but take a few more glances at Shen Yunqing. No matter who saw this lively and passionate girl, they couldn't believe that just a few days ago, all of her relatives had already left her.

Shen Yunqing actually liked Bai Xian a lot, he was not like other people, when he heard about her, he would immediately look at her with sympathetic and bitter eyes, and Bai Xian's eyes were filled with even more pain and respect, causing her to quietly move closer to Bai Xian.

"Sister Bai Xian, you don't have to worry about me. I know that even if my father, mother, and grandfather had gone to hell, they would still think that I care about them. That's enough."

Bai Xian withdrew the deep meaning in his eyes. It seemed that Shen Yunqing wished for him to treat her normally. "Yun Qing, come and wash this dish clean."

Everyone was busy picking up firewood and flames. After half an hour, all the food needed for breakfast had been prepared, and Bai Xian looked at everyone with a pleading gaze. He smiled and said: "Alright, let's start to cook."

She picked up a small bowl of fish and said while she cooked, "These fish are small, stew them a little bit more so they don't need spitting. Look carefully, first oil, then ginger, then garlic, then fried the fish in flames."

Bai Xian patiently explained the cooking steps step by step. In the eyes of the bystanders, her movements were fluid and her grasp of the cooking process of the ingredients was precise and just right. Every time was perfect, and without realizing it, a few dishes would be cooked.

As the soldiers did not have much to eat in the morning, the side dishes were mostly appetizing, Bai Xian cooked some mixed fish, pork shredded pork with lard, fried chicken head, tiger soup, and the main course was still the Hu Pancake that Ma Dahu cooked previously.

These disciples who followed Bai Xian to cook were already attracted by Bai Xian's cooking, so they took the initiative to help him do other things. They helped him distribute the food and washed the tableware, allowing him to relax a lot.

After the meal, Bai Xian said to the rest of the people: "Everyone, do not worry, in a few days, I will let everyone cook for themselves.

Shen Yunqing stuck out her tongue playfully: "Big Sister Bai Xian is so powerful, we would like to see more of you."

After many years of friendship between Bai Xian and Shen Yunqing, Bai Xian was truly glad that he had Shen Yunqing as his good friend. He had to protect her even if it meant disregarding the wrath of the Son of Heaven.
