Wen Xiaoxiao placed the needed vegetables from the space either in the fruit basket or the bucket.
After bringing everything to the kitchen, she began preparing the meat ingredients.
Cleaning the vegetables was easier and less time-consuming compared to the meat.
Wen Xiaoxiao skillfully handled the three plump fish she had taken from the bucket.
Not all three fish were for the Zombie King. She was planning to prepare one for the Zombie King and the remaining two for lunch for everyone else.
To her, it didn’t matter whether she made more or less. It was better to make extra so that everyone could enjoy it together.
After processing the fish into chunks, she placed them in a large bowl to marinate for a while to make them more delicious.
Next on the list was chicken. She had taken three chickens, planning to braise half of them and make soup with the other half.
After processing the chicken, Wen Xiaoxiao put it in the pot, added the seasonings, and started boiling them. If the chicken wasn’t pre-boiled, it wouldn’t be tender and the texture wouldn’t be satisfying.
She then proceeded to process the other ingredients, which took a considerable amount of time.
Once the meat ingredients were ready, Wen Xiaoxiao started preparing the vegetable ingredients. Vegetable ingredients were easy to prepare. Just wash the vegetables several times and make sure that they are properly cleaned.
The vegetables were grown in the space, so they weren’t as dirty as vegetables grown outside. The vegetables in space were all tender and soft. Not only did they look pleasing to the eye, but the taste was also superb.
Once all the ingredients were processed, Wen Xiaoxiao started cooking.
She prepared a large pot of steamed white rice in the rice cooker. The rice was produced in the space, and the fragrance it emitted when steamed smells very appetizing. Moreover, the water used to steam the rice was the spiritual water from the space, making it more delicious.
Since she had many dishes to cook, Wen Xiaoxiao used three pans simultaneously.
She habitually stir-fried the meat dishes first before moving on to the vegetables.
If the vegetables were stir-fried first and then the meat, the vegetables would cool down and affect the overall taste.
Chicken, fish, and shrimp were cooked in separate pans, one after another. Although this approach increased the speed, it was undeniably tiring.
Soon, the aroma of the dishes filled the kitchen. The Zombie King had been patiently waiting there, not disturbing Wen Xiaoxiao as she prepared the delicious food for it.
However, the scent coming from the pans was starting to make it unable to resist its cravings. It wanted to eat.
Wen Xiaoxiao hadn’t cooked any proper meals for the Zombie King in the past few days. It had only been given fruits, and while the taste of the fruits was good, it preferred to eat freshly cooked meals.
Thinking about how it would soon be able to enjoy the delicious food, the Zombie King’s gray-white eyes narrowed happily.
It sniffed the air, savoring the mouth-watering aroma. The entire Zombie King felt content.
After a short while, the three dishes were ready. Wen Xiaoxiao used a spatula to transfer the dishes from the pans to the plates one by one, and then she stored them in the space to keep them warm. Cold dishes would affect the taste.
Then she resumed stir-frying the remaining vegetables. There were still many dishes left to cook, with over a dozen vegetables that needed to be stir-fried.
Wen Xiaoxiao prepared twenty dishes, not only for the Zombie King but also for the whole family. That’s why there were a lot of dishes.
After all, the Zombie King had a big appetite. Even if she prepared a lot of food for it, it wouldn’t be enough to fill its teeth.
As time passed little by little, Wen Xiaoxiao finally finished cooking all the dishes. She lifted her arms, feeling a bit sore from all the stir-frying.
“Damn, I’m so exhausted.” Wen Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but curse.
Wen Xiaoxiao returned to the sofa and lay down for a while after bringing out all the dishes for the Zombie King.
After resting for a moment, Wen Xiaoxiao went over to where they were.
It was already noon at this time. As she entered the living room, she saw everyone chatting and laughing. Bo Yibing was playing with the children, and Xue Yuna occasionally chimed in, creating a joyful atmosphere.
Seeing that it was almost noon, Mother Fu said to Xue Yuna, “I’ll head back now. I’ll come to see the little ones another day.”
After she finished speaking, she stood up from the sofa and prepared to leave.
“Why leave? Just eat here at noon. I’ll have someone cook,” Xue Yuna said.
“No need to cook. I’ve already prepared everything,” Wen Xiaoxiao said as she entered from outside.
“Mom, are you tired?” Wen Bei ran up to Wen Xiaoxiao obediently, hugged her leg, and looked up at her with her sparkling eyes.
Wen Xiaoxiao smiled and patted the little girl’s head and said, “Mommy is not tired. Darling, are you hungry? Mommy has made many dishes you love.”
“Wow, Mom, I love you so much!” Wen Bei’s eyes curled into crescents when she heard that her mom had made many delicious dishes for her.
She hasn’t eaten her mother’s cooking these past few days, so she felt very greedy.
Wen Xiaoxiao walked to the dining table and brought out all the dishes from the space. The air was instantly filled with the aroma of the food.
Mother Fu, who was about to leave, changed her mind because she couldn’t resist the tempting smell of the dishes Wen Xiaoxiao had cooked.
Everyone who hadn’t tasted Wen Xiaoxiao’s cooking couldn’t help but feel their mouths watering.
Bo Yibing’s stomach growled uncontrollably. His face turned red with embarrassment.
Wen Xiao covered his mouth with his chubby hands and secretly laughed, his small chubby body trembling. Wen Mo, Wen Heng, and Wen Yang also joined in the laughter.
However, not long after Wen Xiao laughed at Bo Yibing, his own stomach began to protest with a growl.
His smiling face instantly turned serious, and his mouth pouted with grievance.
Bo Yiliang looked at his silly son and his silly brother, feeling an inexplicable urge to laugh.
He curled his lips and waved at the pitiful little boy. “Come here.”
Wen Xiao got off the sofa and slowly walked over to Bo Yiliang. With a pitiful tone, he called out, “Daddy~”
Wen Xiao pouted and looked at Bo Yiliang.
Bo Yiliang pinched his chubby little face and whispered something in his ear. In an instant, the unhappy expression on Wen Xiao’s face turned into hearty laughter.
The other children looked at Wen Xiao who was inexplicably laughing with curiosity.
“Let’s go, time to eat.” Bo Yiliang called the children to wash their hands, while Wen Xiaoxiao took out the bowls and chopsticks from the kitchen.
At the dining table, everyone started devouring the food. Bo Yibing, with a mouth full of food, couldn’t help but praise: “Delicious, so delicious.”
Bo Yibing’s speech was a bit unclear due to the food in his mouth.
After the meal, everyone felt satisfied and collapsed on the sofa. The bowls and chopsticks on the table were cleared away by the housekeeper.
Wen Xiaoxiao sat on the sofa and used her mind to check her merit points. She found that she had accumulated nearly 200 million points.
Presumably, it was because Wu Xiaoyi had saved many people, which resulted in such a high number of merit points!
She then checked the merit points required for Peach’s transformation and found that she needed 100 million points.
Suddenly, she felt a tinge of regret. However, since she had already promised Peach, there was no room for regret.
So, without seeing Peach, she cast the magic for Peach’s transformation in advance, and Peach slowly began to undergo the transformation at this time.
