As a child from the countryside, Jerry was proficient in all kinds of housework and farm work very early in his previous life.

After graduating from college and staying in the city to work, most of the time they cook and eat by themselves.

It's not because they think the food outside is unclean and unsanitary. Children from the countryside don't care about that. It's just because cooking by themselves can save at least half the cost of eating out.

With the rise in prices, in the city, if you rely on spending money to eat outside, three meals a day will cost at least 30, which is still average.

If you want to eat more meat and oil, it is estimated that you have to start at forty.

And when he buys vegetables and cooks by himself, especially when he goes to the vegetable market, he will bargain again. Generally, he can eat for two days for more than 30 yuan, and the food is very good.

"The children of the poor should be in charge early!"

This sentence was originally intended to praise the children of the poor for being more sensible and able to bear hardships than the children of the rich.

But actually, that's not a laudable thing.

Because the child is too obedient and sensible, most of the time it is just because of the cruel life that he has to be obedient and sensible.

Which child doesn't want to be loved or spoiled by someone.

The life of the poor has been very hard. Going to school is the pressure of study, going to work is the pressure of work, getting married is the pressure of life, and after getting old, there is the pressure of the body.

The only childhood that is free and happy without pressure, but must learn to "head home early".

This is a very real portrayal of Jerry's previous life.

So although he can't be called a chef, he is quite good at some home-cooked dishes.

As a person with an adult soul, he is of course unwilling to accept Haas's upbringing and care for him, and he will take the initiative to undertake some things within his power.

Such as cooking, housework, and taking Elsa.

Of course, part of the reason is that Haas is a typical scumbag.

If Jerry doesn't clean up the house, Haas and Elsa will make a mess in the whole house within two days, making his scalp numb when he sees it.

As for cooking, huh, Haas's cooking is really dumped in the community, the kind that stray cats won't eat.

One can imagine how much food they ate in those days when Jerry couldn't cook!

"Aisha likes noodles, so let's make a bowl of noodles in clear soup in the morning!"

Jerry is not used to eating certain western foods, so except for saving time when he is in school, he will cook some western-style breakfasts. Usually, during weekends or summer vacations like now, he will cook Chinese-style breakfasts most of the time.

As for whether Haas and Elsa will get used to it, it's actually okay.

Although they don't like some Chinese-style dishes, there are too many Chinese-style dishes, and they always like to eat, such as his noodles in clear soup, Kung Pao chicken, boiled fish, pot-wrapped meat, and fish-flavored shredded pork. ......

Haas had wondered why Jerry cooked so many Chinese dishes. Jerry calmly put the Chinese dishes he bought from Chinatown in front of Haas.

"Jerry, you got up so early again, it's summer vacation, you can actually sleep a little longer, and Dad can order takeaway for you!"

Just when he took out the ingredients he needed from the refrigerator, Haas, who was sleepy, also started to get up and pack himself.

As a sheriff, Haas doesn't have winter and summer vacations, and he still needs to go to work as usual to handle the follow-up to yesterday's bank robbery.

Jerry turned on the gas stove and replied:

"It's alright, I'm used to it. You can go and wake Aisha when you get it done. Eat noodles this morning, and it won't be delicious if it's late!"

"Noodles? Oh, that's great, I love noodles!"

After Haas packed himself up, he went to Elsa's room.

It is not an easy task to get this little guy Elsa up to eat, and it is estimated that Haas will take a lot of work.

"Aisha, get dressed and get up to eat!"

"Has, the **** of death, don't even think about taking my Snow Queen away from the castle. Take the trick: Freeze the Ice Spear of the Void!"

"Ouch!"

Hearing the sound of the father and daughter fighting fiercely from the room, Jerry also smiled and shook his head.

Heat a pan, cool oil, and then slap three eggs. After the eggs are formed, turn them over and fry them until both sides are burnt and fragrant. Add the pre-heated hot water. When the fragrant eggs touch the hot water, they stimulate the milky white, fragrant and delicious taste. Soup base.

When the water in the pot boils again, take out the eggs and divide them into three parts for later use. Add the noodles, and by the way, put in a few small green vegetables that have been picked in advance.

When cooking the noodles, take out three bowls and add the right amount of soy sauce, vinegar, salt, chopped shallots, and most importantly, lard.

The noodles are boiled with water for the second time, and the soup is poured into three bowls respectively, and then the noodles, eggs and small green vegetables are added in turn, and a bowl of fragrant and refreshing clear soup noodles is completed.

At this time, Haas finally lifted the reluctant Elsa out of the room. That's right, it's the kind of lift that literally carries the collar of her shirt in the air, and supervises her to brush her teeth and wash her face.

“My Favorite Noodles!”

Seeing that breakfast is her favorite noodle, Aisha cried out with joy.

"Eat it quickly, don't get cold for a while!"

Jerry stroked Elsa's messy hair.

"Seriously, Jerry, if you open a Chinese restaurant in the future, the business of UU Reading www.uukanshu.com will be very good. This noodles are much better than the ones I ate in Chinatown!"

Haas ate the noodles from the bowl with his fork and couldn't help but admire.

"That's fine. It's okay to do it occasionally. I don't plan to spend it in the kitchen every day!"

Cooking is Jerry's survival skill, not a hobby.

"Then have you thought about what to do in the future? Scientists, police officers, lawyers, or entrepreneurs?"

Haas took a gulp of soup as he spoke.

In Haas' eyes, a child as good as Jerry was something he had never seen in all his years, so he felt that as long as Jerry was willing, these occupations should not be a problem.

Hearing this, Jerry was stunned for a moment.

Scientists, police officers, lawyers, and entrepreneurs, all have previous life experience, the ability to learn with the bonus of Little Red Star, and the ability to magic. These careers that they longed for in previous lives seem to be easy to achieve in this life.

But are these really what he wants?

In the past life, he yearned for these occupations, not because he liked them, but because he felt that the wages and benefits of these occupations were good, and it was out of his reach as an ordinary worker who had nothing to do and was not good at communication.

But in this life, he doesn't seem to need to worry about money, so what kind of person does he want to be in the future, and what kind of job does he want to do?

"I haven't thought about it yet, let's talk about it when I grow up!"

Putting down his chopsticks, Jerry smiled and said his answer.

Indeed, he really hasn't made up his mind yet, at least for now he doesn't have anything special he wants to do, he just wants to strengthen himself, and then protect the two relatives of Haas and Aisha from harm in the future.
