Wearing gold-rimmed glasses, Tianhai Qimingyue held a book in both hands, sitting on the single sofa diagonally opposite Sakakihara Suzu, hearing the voice of Sakakihara Le and her sister coming back, she was still buried her head, and her eyes fell forever between the lines of the book.

"Isn't my aunt at home?" Tianhai Jiu Liuli walked out of the kitchen.

"No, that's the busiest time for their restaurant." Sakakihara Le handed the water he had just picked up in his hand to Sakakihara Suzu, and he didn't even say "Thank you, brother".

Tianhai Jiu Liuli: "So, we are the only ones who came to dinner today?" ”

"That's all there is to it."

Cooking has always been something Sakakihara has been doing.

Grocery shopping, chopping, stir-frying, washing pots, washing dishes... After more than ten years, he has been used to these things.

After all, my father ran away, and my mother at that time worked five odd jobs outside alone, getting up early and greedy to make money.

As the eldest son in the family, how can he not bear the pressure of daily life in the family?

Looking at the various ingredients that he had just bought from Don Quixote in front of him.

Sakakihara was thinking about what to eat today.

Three younger sisters.

They have different preferences.

Tianhai Jiuliuli likes vegetables and fruits, and likes light.

Tianhai Qimingyue is unknown for the time being, but she likes potato chips.

Make a smorgasbord salad for your sister and a fried rice with potato chips for your sister?

Potato chips fried rice is a bit strange though.

But Sakakihara can only think of this one dish related to potato chips.

Just do it.

Eggs, cucumbers, tomatoes, grapes, melons.... Sakakihara put these ingredients into a basin, and suddenly remembered that when he moved, he brought the corn that he hadn't eaten before.

So he turned around and opened the refrigerator again, and took out the corn and put it in the basin.

"Almost." Sakakihara glanced at it and reached out to pull out the small kitchen knife placed next to the microwave.

Cucumbers peel and cut into cubes, tomatoes washed, corn ready, melons peeled, washed and cut......

Sakakihara cut a kitchen knife neatly, he turned around and went to the cupboard to get a large glass bowl, and put the cut ingredients in reserve.

Finally, start boiling water, and put the eggs and corn together to boil.

"Need help?" Tianhai Jiu Liuli put his hands behind his back at this time and smiled at him.

"It's okay, I'm busy by myself." Sakakihara smiled at her.

"Really, you don't need to?" Tianhai Jiuliuli is probably not confident in his cooking skills, and his tone is not very firm.

"It's okay, just go watch TV, I'll probably be able to finish it in half an hour."

"Okay then."

In fact, Sakakihara Raku feels himself as the eldest brother of this group... To shoulder a certain amount of responsibility - this is also his habit for more than ten years.

Whether it is in the handling of the relationship between several people, or in life, you can do what you can, without bothering others, let alone the righteous sister you just met.

Please, they Sakakihara will always feel a little unhappy in my heart.

The corn is cooked in a pot, and Sakakihara prepares Suzu Sakakibara's favorite carrot and potato curry rice and potato chips fried rice.

At the same time, I was busy preparing three-point dishes.

Sitting back in the living room, Tianhai Jiu Ruri kept looking at Sakakihara Le, who was busy preparing meals in the open kitchen, and asked:

"Is Sakakihara-kun so busy every day?"

"That's right, my brother likes to cook, and my mother can't come back in the afternoon, so I let him do it." Suzu Sakakihara was lying on the largest couch, swiping her phone expressionlessly.

"That's right."

While washing, chopping, and cooking vegetables, and preparing condiment samples, you should also pay attention to the temperature of the water in the pot.

The cutting board that has been cut raw meat should be washed again, and the bowl with raw meat should be washed again...

Tianhai Jiu Ruri silently looked at the busy shadow in the kitchen, turned back to Sakakihara Suzu and said:

"I'd better go help Sakakihara-kun."

"No, he's busy alone." Suzu Sakakihara smiled at the information on the phone screen, and replied in a casual tone.

"I think... I still have to do a favor. Tianhai Jiu Liuli got up and walked over.

"Haha, interesting."

Suzu Sakakihara held the mobile phone screen with both hands, did not squint, and when she saw the chat history in the group chat of her colleagues, she smiled happily again, and her two legs kept staggering on the sofa.

She turned around, looked left and right, suddenly felt a little thirsty, turned her upper body sideways, and reached for the cup of water that Sakakihara had poured for him on the coffee table.

But when she picked up the water cup and sat up cross-legged, her eyes came to the stage, only to find that in the open kitchen diagonally opposite the living room, Tianhai Jiu Ruri and Sakakihara Le were chatting and laughing.

......

Suzu Sakakihara stared at it for a long time.

"This should have been expected in advance." Tianhai Qimingyue on the single sofa lifted her gold-wire glasses, and her slender white hand stroked the pages.

Suzu Sakakihara glanced at the water in the cup until she had only half of it, and then looked up at the seven bright moons of the sky in the sky who were sitting upright.

"What...?"

Tianhai Qi Mingyue picked up the hot teacup in front of her, took a sip above her thin lips, didn't look at her, and said unhurriedly: "It's nothing, it's just that as a combined family, I think there are some things that must be prepared in advance." ”

The heat swirled over the girl's calm face, and Suzu Sakakihara couldn't see her face clearly.

She lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking, and then laughed, "Of course." ”

Tianhai Qi Mingyue put down the teacup and did not speak again.

Ten minutes later, Sakakihara brought all the dishes to the table, and then took a pair of dishes and chopsticks to each of them in the kitchen sterilizer and placed them in front of their respective positions.

"Nine glass, give."

"Thank you."

"Seven bright moons."

"Thank you."

"Ah Ling." Sakakihara Raku took the last pair of chopsticks in his hand to her.

"Why am I the last?" Suzu Sakakihara raised her head, and her beautiful colorful purple eyes reflected Sakakihara's appearance.

“...？”

Sakakihara hesitated for a while, not understanding what she meant, "You're the youngest, so you're the last, okay?" ”

Suzu Sakakihara took his chopsticks and remained silent.

The two Amami sisters sat across from each other, and Sakakihara sat on the side with Sakakihara Suzu.

Sakakihara looked around at the family that suddenly got together, coughed twice and said:

"Now, you're ready to go, you're welcome."

Tianhai Jiuliuli smiled, clasped his hands together and lowered his head: "I'm moving." ”

Tianhai Qimingyue was expressionless, put her hands on the hem of her skirt and bowed her head: "I started." ”

Sakakiwara Suzu secretly glanced at the smiling Amami Kururi opposite, poked the curry rice in the bowl with chopsticks, and said, "I'm moving." ”

Sakakihara heard something wrong with her voice on the side, and lowered his voice and asked, "Wasn't it okay just now?" What's wrong? ”

"You don't have to." Suzu Sakakihara also whispered, moving to the side with her stool in both hands.

？

Have you had this period yet?

Sakakihara didn't feel like he had provoked her at all.

Alas... Calling brother when you have something, ignoring people when you have nothing to do, so my sister is a creature that is quite troublesome, and she was cute when she was a child.

Shiro made her a curry rice.

"Potato chips fried rice, first time I'll see you."

In the delicate and flawless eyes of Tianhai Qimingyue, a little surprise was reflected, but the tone lacked ups and downs, and the expression was almost nothing.

Sakakihara retracted attention from Suzu Sakakihara.

Tianhai Jiu Ruri said on the side: "When I was shopping for vegetables in the afternoon, Sakakihara-kun told me about this, and he also asked me what kind of dishes you like." ”

"Ill-intentioned."

"It's obviously about whether you're good or not." Tianhai Jiu Ruri couldn't help but defend Sakakihara Le.

"Who knows."

Sakakihara Raku: "......"

Did she instinctively or did she really recognize it?

Why does he always feel that Tianhai Qimingyue seems to know something.

"But the fried rice looks okay, better than my father and sister."

Tianhai Qi Mingyue scooped a scoop of fried rice into his bowl with a spoon, and said casually again After I started, I took small bites of the potato chips fried rice into her cherry-like lips.

Sakakihara was looking forward to Qi Mingyue's reply, and kept watching her chew and eat slowly.

This potato chip fried rice is the first time I have made it, but the taste of the fried rice made by the cooking skills with the title of "proficient" should not be bad due to the cooking level 3 and the title of "proficient", right?

Although he didn't know what the level of mastery was, he had been busy with school and a new home recently, and he hadn't verified the effectiveness of the system.

However, even though Sakakihara has full confidence in his craft for almost ten years, he still can't help but pay attention to what he has made when someone else tastes it for the first time.

"How?"

"It's delicious." She commented.

The dishes that can make Qi Mingyue continuously give "delicious" evaluations cannot be said to be rare, but can only be said to be rare.

She belongs to the kind of person who can eat anything, but feels bored with everything she eats.

Only when she hits the acceptable point in her heart will she feel delicious.

Just be delicious.

Sakakihara Le breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, since it was delicious, this should be regarded as compensation for you in advance.

It's not too much to trade a well-sautéed fried rice chip for a pack of unopened iced potato chips, right?

"As long as you can get used to eating, I thought you wouldn't be able to adapt to my craft." Sakakihara said with a smile.

Tianhai Jiuliuli waved his hand: "No, I like the food cooked by my aunt and Qi Mingyue." Yes! That's right! Speaking of which, my father and aunt still know each other because of cooking. ”

"Is there such a thing?" Sakakihara asked curiously.

"Yes, my father came home that day and said that he met a very interesting aunt today."

"Sister, there is no need to talk about that kind of thing."

"What's wrong? Dad chasing his aunt is also quite interesting, and later he deliberately took flowers every day to pick her up at his aunt's place of work. ”

"No matter how you look at that situation, Dad looks like a rich man."

"No... I think it's quite romantic, what does Sakakihara-kun think? "Tianhai Jiu Ruri looked at Sakakihara Le.

Sakakihara didn't expect her to suddenly ask herself, "It's a little weird." ”

Tianhai Qi Mingyue immediately turned his head sideways: "Isn't it very old-fashioned?" ”

Sakakihara rejoiced: "A little. ”

"My sister lost, Qi Mingyue +1 point, and now it's 4 points."

"It's clearly 3 points!" Tianhai Jiuliuli retorted.

"My sister remembered wrong."

"Absolutely not!"

Sakakihara asked suspiciously, "What does a fraction mean?" What is the perfect score? ”

"With a full score of 5, you can ask the other party to do one thing, a competition between me, at the beginning from an unconvinced sister, but as the initiator, she has not won once." Tianhai Qimingyue said to Sakakihara Le.

"That's because... Because I'm not serious! Tianhai Jiu Liuli's cheeks flushed.

"Yes, sister, Qi Mingyue also fully agrees with my sister's words."

Sakakihara Raku: "......"

And this kind of game?

"If the elder brother wants to participate, there is no problem, as long as the score is 5, the elder brother can ask the elder sister to do anything."

When Tianhai Qi Mingyue said the three words "anything", he consciously or unintentionally accentuated the syllables.

"Qi Mingyue, what about you!"

"Qi Mingyue won't lose."

"Impossible! Last time... No, it was last time, and you almost lost to me! ”

Tianhai Jiu Liuli got closer and closer, and Tianhai Qi Mingyue turned her face away in disgust: "Judging from my sister's loss of 67 rounds, my sister's victory over Qi Mingyue is infinitely tending to zero." ”

"Seven Bright Moon!!" Tianhai Jiuliuli was stimulated by her appearance, grabbing her small shoulders and shaking vigorously.

Tianhai Qi Mingyue said with her eyes half-closed in her sister's shaking: "Sister used violence against Qi Mingyue again, Qi Mingyue wants to tell Dad and let him spank you." ”

"No, no, no!"

The twins of two beautiful girls who look exactly the same have scuffled together.

Sakakihara played a round on the side: "Or... Let's eat first. ”

At the lively table, only Suzu Sakakihara was sullenly poking the rice in the bowl with chopsticks, muttering a few words inaudibly.
