"It’s just a little cabbage, you can’t back down now, no matter how you cook it, it’s still edible."
"Captain Lin, listen to my advice. After all, you were her teacher. If she quits halfway, all her future embarrassments would be blamed on you."
The cooks chimed in, one after another, as if they were performing a crosstalk, entirely unabashed.
But just as they were getting into the swing of things, all of them were chased away by Captain Lin’s iron spatula.
Watching them scurry off, still shouting, "Captain, you have to teach her well, Flossie’s future is in your hands," Captain Lin hoveringly lowered the iron spatula he was holding up.
How infuriating!
Grinding his teeth fiercely, Captain Lin angrily cursed, these little rascals!
"Captain Lin, time to add the oil."
Suddenly, Flossie Wright’s voice came.
Startled, Captain Lin rushed over reflexively.
Still, he was a step too late...
In a pot that had not been dried from water, a spoonful of oil was put in and immediately it went "sizzle" and "crackle," the oil water splashing, the sound echoing.
Flossie Wright instinctively took two steps back.
With a darkened face, Captain Lin could only shake his head and sigh in the end.
Oh well, what can be done with such a hopeless case?
All he could do was to accept his fate.
After "humbly learning" in the kitchen for a morning, Flossie Wright had finally cooked four dishes and one soup, with a bowl of rice on the side.
When Rowdy Brightwill got the text and came to the cooking class, he saw several dishes on the stone table in the backyard at first sight.
Stir-fried cabbage, Braised Pork, Vinegar Shredded Potatoes, Stir-fry Eggs, and Pumpkin Soup.
In addition, there was a hot serving of white rice.
"You made all of these?"
Rowdy Brightwill looked at Flossie Wright standing next to the stone table, eyes filled with disbelief.
Although Flossie had invited him for a meal last night, he thought that she would just let Captain Lin cook a few dishes. He never expected Flossie to actually cook everything herself.
As to why he could tell at a glance, it was simply because Captain Lin could never produce such utterly unappetizing looking dishes.
Flossie Wright nodded in response, pointing in the direction of the rice, indicating that he could start eating.
Just then, Captain Lin, who had tidied up the kitchen, walked by. Casting a glance at Rowdy Brightwill, who had just sat down with his chopsticks, he shook his head sympathetically and silently walked away.
"Aren’t you eating?"
Picking up a piece of cabbage and about to pile it onto his rice, Rowdy Brightwill suddenly seemed to ponder something and looked up to ask Flossie Wright.
With her arms crossed, Flossie Wright watched him sanguinely.
A sudden feeling of foreboding springing up in his heart, Rowdy Brightwill chewed a bite of the cabbage with some hesitation.
After a few chews. Hmm, the cabbage wasn’t that bad.
He then took a bite of the stir-fried egg, tasted a bit salty.
He had a sip of the pumpkin soup, it was slightly bland.
He ate a strand of shredded potato, little bit too tough.
He bit into the braised pork, kinda hard.
Thus, Rowdy Brightwill was one hundred percent certain that these dishes were indeed prepared by Flossie Wright.
"Continue at your leisure."
Seeing Rowdy’s eyebrows relax from a furrow, Flossie Wright knew it was time to slip away and was about to leave.
"Where are you going to?" Rowdy Brightwill called her back.
"Check on the vegetable field."
Shrugging her shoulders, Flossie Wright walked away with calm strides.
Poor Comrade Rowdy, watching Flossie’s retreating figure and then looking back at the food on the table, let out a heavy, sorrowful sigh, before painstakingly setting about tackling the spread of food.
After all, it was Flossie’s good intentions so it wouldn’t be right to waste...
