Qin Xue cleaned the fish, made some cuts in it, and marinated it with a little starch, salt, and soy sauce before setting it aside.
She then washed the vegetables, peppers, and the onion, ginger, and garlic, and prepared a bowl of thickening sauce.
After chopping the onion, ginger, and garlic, Qin Xue washed the wok to stir-fry the vegetables.
She glanced at the dwindling supply of spices and wondered if she should take the seeds from the spices and plant them in her space.
Thinking leads to action, which is Qin Xue's guiding principle!
She picked out the seeds from the Sichuan pepper, tsao-ko, and star anise, and set them aside to plant later. She also took some fennel seeds.
Now, Qin Xue was not sure what else she needed.
As long as the seeds can be planted, she would think about taking them into her space to plant.
Qin Xue now treated her space as a versatile one.
