Chapter 51, Recuperation 2
Although steamed sweet potatoes are Ram's specialty, I still feel very uncomfortable eating too much of this stuff. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
[There are a lot of ingredients, but even if I prepare a lot of ingredients, I feel that there is still a lot of difference.] 】
[Is Barus going to be a witch's potion? First of all, Ram won't drink a soup like a lizard's tail or a fly's wing. 】
[Are you serious?] Normal people wouldn't drink something like that.
[Although it feels like a Western aristocratic country hundreds of years ago, there is no such thing as soy sauce or vinegar, but there is ketchup, and I have to say that the direction of evolution is really peculiar. 】
Originally, I was a little looking forward to it, but when I saw Baruslam, who had been talking to himself, he sighed, I should still prepare some steamed sweet potatoes, right? After all, as a qualified maid, only Ram can satisfy all the guests now, and I have to work hard!
[Subaru, I'm going to prepare other ingredients, please work hard here.] 】
[Wait a minute, sister-sama!, you just called me by my name!] (Subaru pronounces the same as the Pleiades)
[Hmm?............ Is there such a thing? Barrus?]
[Forget it, it should be happier if I could change the name.] 】
[So Barus...... What do you want to call it?]
[Ram, it's okay to call me brother-in-law!] Black Thirteen looked at Ram, who was a head shorter than him, with an expectant expression.
Brother-in-law...... That's ...... What do you mean?] Ram, who was holding his head up, had a slight doubt, it would be bad if he was being teased by Barrus by some strange name on his side.
[Friendly salutation between friends!Just refer to you and me!] Black Thirteen stretched out his thumb, come on, sister!
[Huh, why should I be friendly with a cockroach alone!? Barrus is so strange!] Ram's disgusted look made Black Thirteen feel very hurt......
――――――
After cleaning the sweet potatoes, there was a rapid and even collision sound behind him, and in a strange situation, Ram secretly glanced back, looking at the flies behind him and didn't know what they were doing.
[Hmm...... Cut into strips, and so fast?!What is Barrus doing?]
[Ahh It's going to take a little while, so let's wait a minute. When he was seriously chopping vegetables, Ram was taken aback by the sudden approach, but this did not affect anything, and the speed of his hand remained the same.
Looking at Barus, who turned his head to talk to himself without changing his face, and the speed in his hand had not yet fallen, Ram was a little admired, he hadn't seen the knife work so skilled for a few days, even Ram, who was the most powerful in the mansion, had to agree with his strength a little~
[If you go on like this, you'll get your hands on it~Barus~]
[Wow!!~ I was actually cared for by Ram! I feel that it doesn't matter if I am cut now!]
[No, it's better for you to cut off the whole hand!] Ram turned around angrily and continued to prepare his steamed white potatoes.
In fact, if you don't look at her black-bellied poisonous tongue attribute, Ram is still a cute girl, as for comparison with Emilia?
Hehe-Hei Thirteen also vaguely guessed something after the dream, it's not for nothing that he likes someone?!Black Thirteen shook his head, there are a lot of dishes to prepare, after all, there are several people, but the grain output in this world is so low that it is pitiful, no wonder those people eat meat and bread as the staple food for three meals a day, and they can't help but think of a new plan.
In general, there are several things that I have in mind that can be executed.
The first is what he thought of after seeing Viruhelum, and he encircled a mercenary as his guardian force.
Second, in a world where entertainment is not very developed and books are luxuries, it is also a good choice to encircle those bards and create a group of their own people to write novels that can justify Emilia's various names, which is also something that I think can be implemented after thinking about it for a long time. But before that, we have to solve the problem of papermaking, after all, although we know, but in fact, I am afraid that it will still have to pay some time and economy.
Thirdly-
Fourth-
[It's just a good time for you to come back, Lozval. 】
[Oh, tonight's dinner is a little special, is it prepared by the Pleiades?]
[Because I want to get something delicious, after all, the food has been too bad in recent days.] 】
[Because I want it, so I have it?ha~~] Lozval smiled inexplicably, approached the table and sniffed.
[It's really delicious, then I'm not welcome!] After saying that, I sat down unceremoniously.
【Then let's start eating!】At Lozval's command, everyone began to settle what was in front of them.
[Obviously the dishes haven't been served yet...... No, that's not the point! Damn, you robbed me of my lines. 】
[Hmm~~...... I haven't figured it out yet, anything in this mansion is mine~ including you!] I don't know what the makeup on his face is to hide anything, it looks particularly funny, and it really ruins his title of first-class magician in the royal capital. Lozval elegantly stuck a fork into the shredded green pepper meat in front of him.
[Hmm...... It turned out to be beef?I didn't expect the beef to come out of this way to have a unique flavor~ It doesn't look like it's roasted, and the soup inside looks rich, is it steamed?】
【Stir-fried.】 Black Thirteen took out a pair of chopsticks in front of everyone, holding a piece of sweet potato in his hand and holding other vegetables down his throat.
In fact, there are several kinds of dishes prepared to consider everyone's tastes, whether it is spicy or cold salad, there are exquisite and delicious, and the main dish is still behind, Ram is still preparing it in the kitchen, saying that it is to let himself go and eat something first, so he is busy there.
[Pleiades, the thing in your hand is very curious, it feels very interesting, is it also tableware?] Emilia was curious about the baby's personality and resurfaced, and the successful Black Thirteen hurriedly rushed to her side. Naturally, this situation has been thought of for a long time, and eating with couple's chopsticks in front of everyone makes people feel happy just thinking about the beautiful scenery like that. I will definitely be able to envy the single dog who came to eat on purpose!
[Emilia asked in person, it's really good! This thing is called chopsticks, and if you start using this kind of tableware since childhood, you can also improve your IQ~ I'll teach you how to use it!] Without saying a word, he took out the second set of chopsticks he had prepared and handed it to Emilia.
[Alas, is that so? I feel that it is difficult to get my hands on it~] Emilia smiled embarrassedly, she didn't seem to be used to it, and she felt a little wasted of his kindness.
[Ahh Holding Emilia's hand taught her the correct posture of holding chopsticks, and after a few times of picking up the dishes, Emilia also felt that she was starting to get started, and this kind of cutlery was surprisingly convenient to use!
[It's not my family's Emilia!Learning things is so fast!] Black Thirteen sighed a little, it's really rewarding to teach others something as new, especially a cute girl like Emilia.
[It's better to teach the Pleiades~] Emilia is concentrating on the dishes in front of her, but it seems that she doesn't like to eat green peppers very much, and all of them are left on the plate.
Black Thirteen seemed to realize that something was wrong and shouted.
[What's wrong?]
[Damn, I was so serious just now, I forgot to hold hands with Emilia personally, can I do it again?Let me re-experience life, life is incomplete without holding hands with Emilia!] Just now, because neither of them felt ambiguous, Black Thirteen didn't notice it. But when I think of a natural Emilia, and I don't think about myself at all, I feel very powerless.
[The Pleiades are really, holding hands is something that only couples can do~] Hearing this, Hei Thirteen felt that he had been stabbed again, what a good opportunity to justify, but he was missed by himself!~~~
Black Thirteen returned to his seat with some doubts, so many dishes...... Where did it go? No, it must have been where all the dishes on the empty plates in front of me had gone?
[Thank you for your hospitality!] Julius wiped his mouth, he had no expectations. But this ...... A unique meal, as if each dish can open its own taste buds, accidentally eat a little more, anyway, the guy is not eating, just help him share a little. Having said that, although this amount seems to be a lot, I realized that it was too little when I ate it.
[Thank you for your hospitality!] Veruhirum can still restrain a little in this regard, but he is also satisfied, there are some flavors in these dishes that he has never tasted, originally just to heal the injury as much as possible, but after eating two bites, I don't know why my appetite became very good, and I accidentally ate the portion of Lord Pleiades...... And I feel a little underfed.
Finding the somewhat embarrassed Black Thirteen, Emilia's expression was a little complicated.
[If you don't mind...... I still have some ...... here]
[Amilia, it's not right to be a picky eater!And these are just appetizers, and the main dish for the finale is still to come!]
Hearing the words behind Black Thirteen, Veruhirum and Julius, blushing a little, tied the sanitary cloth they had taken off again with lightning speed, ...... In fact, it is true that I have not eaten enough.
[But the green pepper is really hard to eat, well, if I have to eat it...... The taste is unexpectedly good! There are some other flavors in it, not bitter at all, how to do it!]
The practice of green peppers in this world is very monotonous, that is, boiled in water to eat softly, green peppers like that are really difficult to swallow, if it is not for the nutritional value of green peppers, I am afraid that green peppers are the most unpopular dishes on the table.
[I took some condiments from the south, east and west, although it is not very complete, but it is good to be able to make such a taste. 】
【Everyone's been waiting for a long time~】Pushing the cart, a large pot of soup is placed on the table, and there is a container under it that is burning with flames.
[It took some time to prepare the things that the Pleiades wanted, did Lord Lozval come back too?] Ram wiped the sweat from his forehead with some happiness.
[Thank you for your hard work, let's dine together!] Hei Thirteen stood up, put the dishes on the cart one by one on the table that had been cut, and put the dishes that had been eaten back on the cart, which was another circle of good dishes.
[Let's go!]
Julius, who had already tasted the sweetness, quickly picked up a piece of food with a fork and put it on the plate, and after swallowing it, he found that although it was still refreshing, the taste was obviously different from the cold salad just now.
[This thing is called hot pot! There are two kinds of soup in it, one is spicy and the other is umami! What flavor you want to eat, just put your favorite dish in it!] Hei Thirteen looked at the hot pot in front of him happily, there is no such thing as hot pot in this world, and it is also a kind of happiness to be able to eat hot pot little by little in another world.
Thinking like this, Black Thirteen watched as Julius, Viruhyrum, and later Lozval poured almost all the dishes on the table into the table, one dish after another.
[You give me enough to stop!]
[That...... I'd better drink the soup, huh?] I also want to try what it tastes like, but I'm afraid it won't be my turn to look at it like this, Emilia smiled a little embarrassedly.
[I'm very sorry to all the adults, because it was Barrus's idea, I even let the adults do it themselves, I'm very sorry~] Ram said this, but poured a whole plate of sliced mutton into it, and I am afraid that all the mutton will suffer.
[There are no friends at the dinner table!This is the battlefield!The weak will only be eliminated!Emilia is too~Hey!That one is not fully ripe!Wait a minute, leave me a little!Damn, there are no more dishes?] No way, Black Thirteen had to go to the kitchen to prepare some more dishes, but fortunately, there were finally enough dishes in the kitchen. I hope these guys don't finish the soup......
After coming out of the kitchen, the fight continued, and after glancing at Emilia with her chin on her hands, she looked happily at everything in front of her, and Black Thirteen also smiled and pushed the cart over.
[I've been waiting for a long time, an invincible and delicious meal, and some secret sauces have been prepared, which can be adjusted by yourself according to personal preferences!] In fact, it's just some garlic, ginger, sesame seeds, these things are chopped together, because there is no soy sauce, so some sesame oil is mixed with some things with a heavier taste, and the taste is still good.
[Huh~~ It's spicy!] Turning his head to look at Black Thirteen's Ram's cheeks were red, Black Thirteen wouldn't think that the sister in front of him would be shy or anything.
[Please use it slowly, I'll go get some drinks.] If you have ice, you don't have it in the storage room, but you can't pay attention to it that much.
【Pleiades, do you want to help?】Emilia walked over quietly away from the few people who were fighting for food, and after coming back, this is the first time she has been alone with Emilia.
[If you can, can you help you get some edible ice cubes?]
[Ice cubes? No problem~ Do you have any new ideas for the Pleiades?]
[Let's wait and see!]
Ice cream, the big killer that will appear on the market in the future, is also one of the next plans of Black Thirteen - food strategy!
