An Hao went to the kitchen to cook. The vegetables at home had been delivered to her by someone from An Ping, who supplied them to the school canteen.
They had plenty of vegetables at home, so there was no need to go out and buy any.
An Hao randomly picked a few vegetables, green beans, garlic scapes, and potatoes. Her movements were swift as she washed and chopped the vegetables, then tossed them into the wok with oil and salt, without any other seasonings, and began to stir-fry them quickly.
Halfway through, she tasted it twice, added another spoonful of salt, and another, until even she felt it was inedible, and quickly served the dishes on the table.
In the pot was a tomato and dough-ball soup, to which she had also added a good amount of salt.
While cooking, she boiled two kettles of water, adding a bit of alkaline noodles to each, making sure the taste was strange and hard to swallow.
