Chapter 46 A Cook Who Doesn't Want to Be a Doctor Is Not a Good Father
Izakaya doesn't really require a lot of cooking skills, after all, it's a place to drink and chat, and you can make do with the snacks. Haruna led Kitahara Shuji around the kitchen for less than half an hour, and found that Kitahara Shuji could do it as soon as he heard it, and he could do it with his hands, and in a blink of an eye, there was nothing to teach.
She wouldn't have had much, just look at the name of the skill - home cooking, very rudimentary.
But this has already made her very vigilant, suspecting that Kitahara Hideji is a superman, and she was silent for a while and ordered: "Then please boil seventy eggs first, peel paper with ten radish, cut ten radishes with a dark knife, and slice five dishes of tofu." ”
Kitahara Shuji responded with a smile: "Leave it to me!"
He began to boil eggs in batches, which made Haruna's words that he wanted to remind him back in his stomach, and after standing beside him for a while with nothing to do, he turned his head to wash the vegetables, and at the same time instructed Natsuori and Natsusa: "I don't need you today, I can rest for the night...... But finish your homework first, and the eldest sister will definitely check it later, and if there is a mistake, you know the end!"
Xia Zhi and Xia Sha were stunned for a moment, tears suddenly rolled in their eyes, and they said in a trembling voice: "No...... Don't you have to work?" They didn't wait for Haruna to answer, they looked at each other and threw down the vegetables in their hands and rushed towards the entrance of the stairs together, only to have the two of them huddle at the door together. None of them let anyone, and the two people who were squeezing and squeezing there squeezed in and ran away.
Over there, Kitahara Shuji is also a little curious about stirring eggs, this tavern even has to boil the eggs separately, just for an egg yolk in the center - although the egg yolk is really disturbing on the eggshell, and it is not good-looking, but I am willing to put this kind of effort, this shop treats the cuisine very finely!
He looked around at the izakaya, which was not small in size, with paulownia wood floors, and the wooden floors looked quite familiar. There are seven or eight tables in the lobby, several large beer barrels stand on the wall, wine posters and handwritten menus are pasted on the wall, and there is a god hanging in the corner of the room, a small fox sits in the middle, with a white face, long tail and red eyes, and flies obliquely, as if it is the messenger of the god Inari - it may also refer to the god Inari himself, the image of the fox messenger is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the human form of the god Inari is removed in many places.
He hadn't paid attention to the izakaya before, and now it looked very fresh, but the floor felt a little weird, and there was a strange feeling that it shouldn't be this kind of floor, but nothing else.
He was looking at it with curiosity, but he saw the curtain lift, and Fukuzawa Fuyumi walked out. She has changed her clothes, and she is also wearing a Wu suit with wide sleeves and fine blue cloth, a short white apron, and a snow-white headscarf wrapped around her head, with two horns like two beast ears, and her body is small, she looks a little cute, but her small face is gloomy, and her stinky face is not flattering at all.
She stood in the middle of the lobby and looked around, her eyes slid over Kitahara Shuji's face as if she didn't see it, and suddenly exclaimed, "Where's Xueli?
Xueli poked her head in from outside the store and said happily, "No, it's here......! Sister, I just finished moving!" she said, her body still twisting and turning, as if waving her hand backwards, telling someone to leave quickly.
Dongmei's face looked a little better, and she ordered, "Go and do your homework." ”
Xueli gave a thumbs up: "It's all right!" After speaking, he shrank his head and disappeared.
Dongmei turned around in the lobby again, touched here and there, and after a while, simply picked up the rag and wiped it, with the posture of a little proprietress.
Kitahara Shuji took a few glances and concentrated on his work - no matter whether he has a grudge with the little radish head or not, he must at least do a good job after taking other people's wages, so that people can't find fault with it and have a clear conscience!
Haruna came over from time to time to take a look, and found that Kitahara Shuji was not much weaker than her, a skilled hand, and it seemed that she had been working here for a long time, and she was even more curious in her heart, but she didn't want to ask Kitahara Shuji, so she could only hold it in her heart.
After a short while, Fukuzawa Naokaka clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Okay, let's eat first!
Kitahara Shuji stopped, saw Haruna go to hold the rice cooker, and hurriedly stepped forward to take it. Haruna glanced at him, bowed her head slightly to express her gratitude, and then led him towards the entrance of the building, and helped him lift the curtain. Kitahara Shuji entered the corridor and took a look, a little unexpectedly, this corridor turned out to be very long, as if it led to other places, but before he could take a few looks, he was brought into a room by Haruna.
This room seems to be the common activity space within the Fukuzawa family, with a long low table and a lot of cushions scattered on the floor, and Natsuori Natsu is already here, and she is burying her head together to do her homework, it looks like they are copying each other, and I don't know who copied whom. At the head of the table, there was a little boy of three or four years old who was drawing crayons on his stomach. Haruna glanced at it and introduced it to Kitahara Shuji, "This is our younger brother Akitaro. ”
Kitahara Shuji silently calculated, and suddenly realized - no wonder the father of the Fukuzawa family always felt that he was lacking in qi, this is the birth of six children! Fraternal twins Fumi Yukiri, the old three Haruna, identical twins Natsuori Natsusa, and a lone seedling in the field, Akitaro...... Six, awesome, tired, right?
However, he hesitated for a moment, and asked tentatively, "Lingtang ......"
Haruna's face was expressionless: "I passed away more than two years ago." ”
"I'm sorry!" Kitahara Shuji bowed his head slightly and apologized, but Haruna didn't say anything more, signaling that he could do whatever he wanted, and then turned around and went out again. Kitahara Shuji sat for a while, there was nothing to do, then he looked at the only man in the second generation of the Fukuzawa family, Ding Akitaro, and found that he was very carefully drawing a picture of a monster, full of children's imagination, but unfortunately it was drawn on a piece of paper with words, and Akitaro was not afraid of life, seeing Kitahara Shuji come over and grinned, a mouthful of white raw milk teeth with a black hole - this little guy has no front teeth.
Kitahara Shuji liked the child very much, smiled at him kindly, watched him draw a few more strokes, and reached out and touched a book beside him - there were several books, and this child took these books to pad when he painted.
He looked at the cover and was somewhat surprised to find that it was Chinese—not kanji mixed with Japanese, or Chinese Simplified—with the title "The Essence of Acupuncture." He was surprised and picked up another one, this one is in Japanese, but it is a translation, the title of the book is "The General Explanation of the Strange Scriptures", and then he picked up another one, which is also a translation, "The Complete Book of Chinese Medicine".
Kitahara Shuji was even more surprised, and even flipped through it and found that it was full of medical books—what is the situation? Why do cooks have so many medical books? Chefs who don't want to be good doctors are not good fathers?
He hadn't seen simplified Chinese characters for a long time, and he felt very familiar for a while, so he flipped through it casually, but a dialog box appeared in front of him: Do you want to learn skills [Acupuncture: Southern School]?
Acupuncture doesn't seem to work!
However, Kitahara Shuji still chose yes, and he was ready to go back and find a way to get a beginner level to deceive a few attribute points. After he was dizzy for a while, he opened the [Encyclopedia of Chinese Medicine] again, and sure enough, there was a hint: Do you fuse [Pharmacy] and [Acupuncture: Southern School] into [Medical Skills]?
I have already learned the beginning, and the effect of integration is better, and it belongs to not learning in vain. He chose yes without hesitation, and for a moment he was almost squeezed out of his head by the huge amount of information, and he felt dizzy and nauseous. He endured the discomfort and took a few breaths, studied the few books at hand, and was dizzy, but he heard a soft and glutinous soft call in his ears, and the sound of "Ernie sauce ......" was not only crispy and swishing, but also had its own echo resonance effect.
Kitahara Shuji rubbed his temples, and found that the [Medical Technique] experience +1, he was speechless for a moment, and turned his head to look at it, only to see Natsuori and Natsu Sa coming up in front of him at some point.
They look the same, melon seed face, thin eyebrows and round eyes are very cute, red cheeks, long straight black hairstyle, and a layer of light fluff on the tips of the exposed ears.
They are kneeling together in front of Kitahara Shuji at this time, blinking their big eyes, their eyelashes trembling slightly, and their small hands on their chests look particularly cute and cute, and they don't have the vicious look of holding a long stick in a fight not long ago.
It's really like two innocent little angels, but Kitahara Shuji was called by them so that the hairs on his back stood up, and he was afraid that physical contact would be pitted, and asked with a smile: "Is there anything wrong with the two Miss Fukuzawa?" After all, it is the employer's daughter, so it is still polite.
"Just call me Natsuori (yarn), Ernie sauce!" they tilted their heads and said in unison, their voices were so crisp, and then they stretched the exercise book in their hands forward, and pointed to a question in unison and said pitifully: "What is the answer to this question, Ernie sauce is so smart, tell us, please!"
Kitahara Shuji glanced at the exercise book, and roughly estimated that it was about the level of the third and fourth grades, even if he was a little dizzy at this time, he didn't have the slightest pressure, and said silently: "One eighth." ”
"What about this one? This one is so difficult, does Ernie Chan know?" they had a clear division of labor, and they asked one question and wrote down the answers in the exercise book.
"A arrives first, nine minutes ahead of B. ”
"Ernie sauce is amazing!" The two little girls squeezed in front of Kitahara Shuji's knees, with a glint of adoration in their eyes, "What about this?"
"This is ......" Kitahara Shuji just learned skills and received a lot of information, and his brain was a little confused, and then he reacted - these two little girls are using him to do homework!
If he is allowed to teach, in line with the principle of being kind to others, Kitahara Shuji will explain patiently, but if it is just a lie to the answer, it will be embarrassing.
He pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "This is indeed a bit difficult, and the answer is 89." "+1 than the real answer in single digits.
"What about this one?"
"It can only be established by dividing into 9 groups, and the remainder is 25. Half right and half wrong answer.
Xia Zhi and Xia Sha glanced at each other, and a smile appeared on their little faces, but they quickly hid it, and Qi Qi said crisply: "Ernie sauce is really powerful, Ernie sauce is supreme...... What about this?"
"It will take 90 days to complete the bridge with 300 workers and 160 days with 500 workers. ”
"Wow, that's amazing...... the two of them half praised, and suddenly their ears twitched, and without the slightest hesitation, they rolled across the table together, and continued to write their homework shoulder to shoulder, as if nothing had happened just now.
He turned his head to look at the door, and sure enough, he found that Xue Li rushed in with a stack of dishes and a large food box, and greeted with a smile in his mouth: "It's been a long time! The eldest sister said a few words to us, and the nagging and nagging caused less time to eat." ”
Kitahara Shuji got up to help set up the dishes and chopsticks in the snow, and it was inconvenient to ask the whispers between the sisters, so he smiled and asked, "Xueli, what's going on with these books?"
