Chapter 686 I am not Oodi
Finally, there were no more tasks in Xiao Zhai, and Su Xia could take a break for a while.
After resting for several days after the simulation exercise, Su Xia went back to work. Although there was not much to do at work, work was almost the same as rest.
"Admiral, have you made up your mind?" Enterprise was wearing a long windbreaker and jeans today. After entering the office, she took off her windbreaker and hung it on the hook on the wall, revealing the thin beige sweater underneath that perfectly outlined her figure, with a curvy figure. "Is the garrison going to hold a Spring Festival Gala?"
"The company is a little late for work today." Su Xia leaned back in her office chair. "Halloween is an event, Christmas is an event, and New Year is the Red and White Song Festival... Aren't there too many events? Too much is as bad as too little. Otherwise, let's have a good rest on New Year's Eve. Of course, not having the Spring Festival Gala doesn't mean we won't do anything."
"What is the Admiral going to do?" Enterprise asked.
"First of all, we have to decorate the place, put up couplets, hang lanterns, etc., and then we have to have a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner..." Su Xia said a lot. She had discussed this issue with Yixian a long time ago and had a preliminary plan in mind. "Let me think about it. The task of decorating the place cannot be left to Missouri..."
Su Xia paused, hesitated for a long time, and slowly said: "Yixian is busy, the canteen can't do without her, Ninghai and Pinghai are also busy... We can't leave it to Chongqing."
"You seem to distrust Chongqing very much?" Enterprise asked.
"Do you think Chongqing is reliable?" Su Xia asked back, "I think Scharnhorst and Royal Ark, who like Chinese culture, know more about it than her."
"Whether it's the Scharnhorst or the Ark Royal, they're better off with the Admiral," Enterprise said with a smile, "The Admiral understands, so why not let him take charge and set up the tutelage according to his ideas?"
Su Xia suddenly looked at Enterprise and said, "That's a good idea."
Su Xia thought about it again and said, "Forget it, I know how to put up couplets. We don't even hang lanterns at home."
"Whatever, just decorate it however you want. It doesn't have to be a certain way. As long as there's a New Year atmosphere and everyone is happy, that's fine." Su Xia paused. "Anyway, we can start purchasing now. Don't cram at the last minute. There's time to check for deficiencies and make up for them. As for the decoration, one day is more than enough."
Next, the two discussed the Lunar New Year for a long time.
The simulation exercise is over. Pennsylvania is staying well in the Naval Base. Although he has not agreed to join it, as long as he doesn't mention leaving, everything will be fine. Ibuki has gradually adapted to the life in the Naval Base and participates in exercises every day. At the same time, he is involved in intelligence work under Suxia's instruction. Now he has plans for the Lunar New Year. There is really nothing to do in the Naval Base.
It was soon time to get off work at twelve o'clock. Su Xia had garlic lobster with pasta for lunch. She spent half an hour in the cafe to digest the food, and then had the essential lunch break every day.
In the afternoon, Su Xia performed his duties as an admiral as usual - caring for his shipgirls. Speaking of which, Xiao Zhai's mission had a deadline, and he had to fill the port area with everyone's laughter before the New Year, so it was obvious that he had to act quickly.
Su Xia strolled to the British residential area this afternoon and found the kitchen by smelling the aroma. It was not tea time yet, but the snacks needed for tea had to be prepared.
The cooking skills of the British are cursed. Generally speaking, as long as you follow the recipe, even if you can't cook delicious food, it will definitely not be too bad, but if you give it to them, they can always come up with a lot of tricks. In any case, the baking skills of the British are generally good, of course, with the exception of some people.
Su Xia saw Shengming, his loyal, reliable, and versatile head maid, and walked gently behind her, holding her soft waist, resting his chin on her shoulder, and asked, "What is Shengming doing?"
Reputation replied: "Scone."
Considering that Mingwei was working, Su Xia did not continue to disturb her and just got close to her for a while.
Su Xia saw the counterattack and she was preparing various tasks.
Su Xia was idle, so she stood aside, playing with a fine bone china cup while watching Surrey stirring the egg liquid. To be honest, he was not watching her stirring the egg liquid, but caring about it. Surrey was a heavy cruiser designed by the Royal Navy before the London Naval Treaty. Compared with the previous County-class cruisers with weak protection, the armor protection design was greatly strengthened.
Of course Sari noticed Susha and found that he was staring at her.
Why did the master keep staring at her?
What mistake did she make again?
The garrison is having difficulty operating. Is the master going to cut its expenses?
Starting from her, a maid who had just joined the naval base and knew nothing?
The more Sarri thought about it, the more uneasy he became. His movements became increasingly erratic, and then, the egg beater flew out.
Sari looked at the egg beater that fell in front of Su Xia. The sticky golden egg liquid was dripping from the egg beater. He slowly raised his head and saw his owner, then squatted down to pick up the egg beater.
"Sari is too careless." said Su Xia.
"I'm so sorry." Sari reacted and said in panic, "Master, please don't chase me away."
She likes her current life in the naval base. She is known as a reliable senior, and as a cute senior in counterattack. Everyone cares about her.
"I didn't say I was going to drive you away." Su Xia said innocently.
“Master, don’t bully Sarri.” Counterattack stood up.
"I really didn't say anything." Su Xia explained, "If you think about it, you will know how I could possibly drive away my ship girl and my maid."
"Sari is so insecure." Su Xia walked to the wash basin with an egg beater, "Sari is so cute, I can't love her enough."
"Master, you are not allowed to tease Sari." Counterattack said again.
Su Xia looked at the little maid and said, "Fighting back is now the senior's job. The senior protects the junior."
“Yeah, yes, I’m a senior.” The counterattack is that of a weak little maid, but she has to act like a senior in front of cute juniors.
"Great." Su Xia praised.
"Why are you still using this egg beater? You can buy an electric egg beater." Su Xia returned the egg beater to Sari and reminded her in a low voice after the counterattack, "I won't bully Sari, but counterattack... your decisive weapon has not yet been fulfilled."
A blush suddenly appeared on the cute face of the counterattack.
The master only knows how to bully people.
The small commotion did not affect everyone in the kitchen, and everyone was working hard.
There are quite a few people in the British department, so if we want to prepare enough snacks for so many people, especially a large group of young ladies in the British department who are more picky than each other, the snacks must be rich and delicious, and it will not do with only a few maids. Among them, the flower maid Shropshire, as London's sister, is not allowed to enter the kitchen, so a lot of people are needed to help. In addition to the maids, there are many other people helping in the kitchen.
Su Xia saw a white-haired girl with twin ponytails wearing an apron.
"Why is Oodi here?" Su Xia said.
The white-haired girl with twin ponytails turned her head and stared at Su Xia.
"Just kidding." Su Xia said, "I know it's Lin Xian."
Linxian, the first ship of the Royal Navy's Linxian-class light cruiser.
In history, Lin Xian made his debut in Operation Weserburg, and participated in support operations for the Trebuchet Campaign and the Normandy Landing. In between, he mainly performed escort support operations in Malta, and lived well until after the war.
In the game, Lin Xian has no transformation and no skills. It is worth mentioning that as a strengthening material, the growth rate of the four basic attributes is roughly the same, which can be regarded as a nutritionally balanced dog food. In addition, because her portrait is very similar to Oyodo, both have yellow eyes, white hair and twin ponytails, and the face shape and clothing style are also similar, she was once called Oyodo by many African admirals who lost their fortunes in gambling on Oyodo.
"I know the admiral is joking," Lin Xian said, "but this kind of joke is not funny at all, it's really annoying. Lin Xian is Lin Xian, and Oyodo is Oyodo. No matter how rare Oyodo is, Lin Xian doesn't want to be mistaken for Oyodo, or for someone else."
"I'm sorry." Su Xia lowered her head.
"It doesn't matter." Lin Xian is not the kind of person who would not give in even if he was right.
"The Admiral has become a very well behaved person now." Galatia was also helping in the kitchen. She was Lin Xian's younger sister and the second ship of the Lin Xian-class light cruiser. She did not have any significant features compared to her sisters.
"Don't use words like 'good'." Su Xia said.
"What's the word to describe it?" Galatea asked.
Su Xia thought about it. His Chinese was not very good, so he couldn't think of an appropriate word at once.
"Anyway, we can't use the word 'good'." Su Xia said, "We are not children."
"Reliable?" Galatea asked.
"It's still not quite right." Su Xia said, "It should be said that one can correct mistakes if one knows them."
Su Xia looked around and asked, "Why does it feel like someone is missing?"
"No one is missing..." Lin Xian looked around, "Maybe it's because the Goddess of Dawn is not here."
"It's not the Dawn Goddess, it's Chongqing." Su Xia corrected, and at the same time realized that it was no wonder that she always felt that someone was missing. When Yixian and Ninghai Pinghai worked in the cafeteria, Chongqing, the former Dawn Goddess of the English department, often stayed in the English department. Her cooking skills were not worth mentioning in the Chinese restaurant, but she was second to none in the English department.
"Don't worry about the details." Lin Xian said, "I don't know where she went."
"I learned new dishes from Shuguang... Chongqing." The icy beauty with glasses spoke.
Penelope, the third ship of the Royal Navy's Linthean-class light cruiser.
In the early days of the Penelope Crusade, the ship was mainly used for escort missions. Later, it was transferred to the K Fleet in the Mediterranean and was responsible for intercepting Axis merchant ships. During this period, it encountered an air raid in the Mediterranean, and the whole ship was full of bullet holes and shrapnel. The officers and soldiers nicknamed it a porcupine. Despite this, it insisted on sailing to Gibraltar for repairs, and continued to fight in the Mediterranean after the repairs.
Penelope's portrait in the game is quite cute, but that's all. She's not very strong.
Su Xia stared at Penelope and asked, "Are you serious?"
"Yeah," Penelope said.
Su Xia just smiled. He didn't dare to try British cuisine, except for the head maid's cuisine of course.
