Became a salted fish pretend heiress and handed over the system
Chapter 255 - 244: Preparation

Chapter 255: Chapter 244: Preparation

Xia Yue and Xia Xi directly returned to their own yard. On the way back, they had already called Yan Mo, asking him to bring Wen Ziyin and Mo Si over for dinner.

The two of them went straight to the kitchen. Xia Yue put the seafood they had caught into a big basin— it was brimming with sealife.

"Is there too much for us to finish?" Xia Xi, who saw Xia Yue still filling the basin, asked in surprise.

"No problem, we will definitely finish it." Xia Yue replied while stuffing seafood into the basin, adding that just the Spiritual Cat’s belly alone could devour half of it.

The system doesn’t even know what it means to be full, if the food is tasty, it could eat it all by itself.

"But there’s so much, we can’t possibly handle it all!" With all this seafood, how long would it take to clean it all?

"Don’t worry, I have a smart nanny robot that can help us clean it." Xia Yue had already thought of this problem.

"Is the robot waterproof?" Xia Xi asked.

"It’s waterproof. The nanny robot should be. I’ll go get it, you look at what we’re going to do next and familiarize yourself with the ingredients." Xia Yue said uncertainly, but decided to give it a try anyway.

"Okay, you go ahead." Xia Xi felt it was the best choice.

Xia Yue went to her room and found the nanny robot named Liuliu, asking it if it could handle water and whether it could clean seafood.

Liuliu confidently replied it could.

Xia Yue then brought it to the kitchen, pointing at the two basins of seafood and instructing it to sort and clean them.

She and Xia Xi also started to clean together.

Liuliu first sorted all the seafood, then began to clean. Its speed was fast and its cleaning thorough.

For every single piece that Xia Yue and Xia Xi cleaned, it could clean four or five.

After cleaning one basin, Xia Xi told Xia Yue, then got up to prepare the ingredients and marinate the seafood that needed to be marinated.

Xia Yue continued to sit there and clean.

When they were almost done, Yan Mo brought Wen Ziyin and Mo Si in with some vegetables.

"Is there anything we can help with?" Yan Mo asked as he walked in.

"You guys can clean the vegetables. I’ve almost finished handling the seafood with Liuliu." Xia Yue said, gesturing to the vegetables they were carrying.

The three of them nodded, rolled up their sleeves, and began working.

Shortly thereafter, the system and the Spiritual Cat came in too.

"What are you two doing here crowding the place? Go play elsewhere, come back when it’s time to eat." Xia Yue scolded, concerned that they might get trampled underfoot because the kitchen was already quite cramped with five people. Both of them were small, so it wouldn’t be good if they got stepped on while moving about.

[We’re just watching, we’re not trying to steal food.] The system didn’t understand her concern and retorted.

"She’s worried that you might get stepped on since the kitchen is too crowded. With so many people around, it’s easy to overlook you two since you’re so small. It would be easy for an accident to happen." Yan Mo explained, noticing the misunderstanding between the system and Xia Yue.

[Oh, don’t worry, I am very nimble. You won’t step on me.] The system finally understood, but still didn’t want to leave.

"Look at Dragon Zun who knows how to behave, it wouldn’t elbow its way in like you. When it’s time to eat, it wouldn’t miss out. What are you looking at?" Xia Yue, not knowing if the system was deliberately being sarcastic, spoke sharply to it.

The system gave her a glare but didn’t say anything, instead it started moving around them in a circle, with the Spiritual Cat following behind.

[Work hard. We’ll go outside for now.] After completing their quick tour, they said that to those present and scampered off with the Spiritual Cat.
