Discontented,
I laugh and ask the bleak sky
To answer why these years have passed by
Why can't there be a world with no goodbyes and no separations
No worries and no grief
To answer why these years have passed by
Why can't there be a world with no goodbyes and no separations
No worries and no grief

Date: 2021-11-11 04:31 am (UTC)In any case, were you in need of assistance? I can make you something to eat if that's what you came here for.
no subject
Date: 2021-11-11 04:51 am (UTC)Was testing the bells.
But, you had offered lessons.
no subject
Date: 2021-11-11 04:56 am (UTC)I did! Would you like to try making something from your cookbook?
no subject
Date: 2021-11-11 04:58 am (UTC)[shakes his head slightly]
Would request a Yunmeng dish.
no subject
Date: 2021-11-11 05:02 am (UTC)I am more familiar with those. Did you have one in mind, or will any do?
no subject
Date: 2021-11-11 05:06 am (UTC)Will trust your recommendation.
no subject
Date: 2021-11-11 05:37 am (UTC)If we're making proper Yunmeng dishes...then we'll have to go with Sichuan chicken and lotus and pork rib soup. Would you get out the pork and chicken?

Date: 2021-11-11 06:18 am (UTC)Ah, perfect. For the chicken we'll want to boil it in a large pot with some of the other ingredients. I'll have the ginger and green onion ready if you can get the water boiling.
Both of these dishes don't have many ingredients, so it shouldn't be difficult to keep track if you want to recreate them later.

Date: 2021-11-11 06:26 am (UTC)[he'll fetch the pot and water and get them on the stove, too...]
no subject
Date: 2021-11-11 06:32 am (UTC)when she has pulled out all of the various spices she needs she does indeed slice up the green onions and ginger to add into the pot with the chicken. and then, because this is a teaching lesson, she goes over each one of the ingredients with Lan Wangji so she knows what they are and how much to add in.]
no subject
Date: 2021-11-11 02:14 pm (UTC)he doesn't speak except to acknowledge when she prompts him, actually! but he doesn't seem uncomfortable? at least as far as she can tell. a silent and diligent student.]
no subject
Date: 2021-11-11 04:21 pm (UTC)she lets it be quiet right up until she takes the chicken out and puts it in an ice bath to have it cool]
I had something I wished to speak to you about as well, Hanguang-Jun.
no subject
Date: 2021-11-11 05:23 pm (UTC)You may speak.
[he is carefully chopping some extra ingredients. it is possible he was expecting this.]
no subject
Date: 2021-11-11 06:01 pm (UTC)You don't need to go into detail if it's difficult to discuss. But I thought it would be painful to A-Xian to speak of it. Would you tell me what happened, after I died?
no subject
Date: 2021-11-11 06:08 pm (UTC)Am unsure he remembers.
...
You recall the sects' concerns, regarding the Stygian Tiger Seal.

After your death, he lost interest in control. The Seal was activated. Sect leaders escaped casualties, but they were heavy.
