Chapter 35: The Poor Stray Dog
As a female college student, Kiyomi Ruri often hears some kind of rumor, it is said that bad girls like to accuse middle-aged bald uncles of being bus-perverts, because this kind of person is best blackmailed, and they don't dare to cause the slightest trouble, and they are often very aggrieved and lose money in private, even if they don't do anything.
The reason for this is probably that this kind of person has a family to bear and at the same time owes a mortgage for decades, and does not dare to take any risk of losing his job, which shows the terrible debt.
Now Kiyomi Ruri understands this deeply, and for the sake of only 40,000 yen, she fell deeper and deeper, and had to enter the door of Nanahara Takeshi's house with grievances, and became a housewife.
Well, the resentful housewife, just looking at her facial expressions, can be named as the heroine of "The Ghost Kills the Housewife", and the ratings are at least 20.
"Put the umbrella away, and polish my shoes." Nanahara Takeshi entered the house, kicked off his shoes and lay down in the living room, commanding the little maid, no, it was the little assistant who worked, "The tools are in the drawer under the shoe kitchen." ”
Kiyomi Ruri stood in the entrance expressionlessly for a moment, threw away the umbrella, opened the drawer vigorously in anger, found a box, took out the velvet brush, flannel, shoe polish and the like, and wrinkled his nose and carried the stinky shoes of Takeshi Nanahara to open the brush.
"Wipe the rain clean first." Qiyuan Wu Luohan lay down, touched a book, and commanded while reading the book.
"I know, I'm not a fool, I don't need you to teach me how to shine my shoes!" Kiyomi Ruri had a dark face, and replied loudly, wiping it with a flannel.
"There's a lighter in the box, apply shoe polish and burn it with fire, what are you doing in such a hurry. Do a line of love, you are now my assistant, you have to do all the things I don't want to do, you have to have a bit of work ethic. Nanahara Takeshi didn't mind Kiyomi Ruri's bad attitude at all, but patiently taught her what to do, after all, if he taught it, he would save trouble in the future.
Well, it's a good boss, and he cares about the growth of employees, anyway, he thinks so himself.
Kiyomi Ruri was stunned for a moment, took out the lighter from the box, couldn't help it, and asked curiously, "Why do you want to burn it with fire?" ”
"Remove water vapor, dissolve shoe polish, and by the way, use heat radiation to open the pores of the leather and deeply moisturize the leather, so that the shoes are brighter, softer, more comfortable to wear, and more thoroughly maintained - these shoes are 'heirlooms', fetal cowhide handmade soles, I am ready to wear them for 20 years, and I have carefully maintained them!"
Can it still be like this?
Kiyomi Ruri thought about it, felt that it seemed to make a little sense, carefully tried it, and found that this kind of shoe polish was viscous enough and had a gelatinous texture.
"It's now! The Tibetan fox attacked, rub hard! Nanahara Takeshi decisively gave the order.
Kiyomi Liuli moved when he heard the sound, plucked up his energy, took a flannel cover to extinguish the fire, and his little hands moved at high speed, wiping out an afterimage. After a moment, she stopped and was surprised to find that the upper seemed to be softer and brighter, anyway, brighter than her mother's shoes, and the leather was more glossy and more comfortable to look at.
It really works!
"You're so smart, you'll be able to teach you." Nanahara Takeshi is also very satisfied, he can't bear to wear dirty shoes, but the smell of shoe polish is too bad, his nose can't stand it after crossing, every time he has to rub his scalp or simply send it to the store for maintenance, it will be much more convenient to have this Tibetan fox in the future.
Kiyomi Ruri pouted with her back to him.
Cut, and yin and yang weird me, this nasty ghost......
But she wiped it harder, burned and rubbed, and soon finished polishing the two big shoes of Qiyuan Takeshi, feeling soft and delicate, like a work of art, the more you look at it, the more pleasing it is.
Sure enough, it's me, as long as I'm serious, I can do everything well, even if it's a shoeshine polish!
Hmph, that's amazing!
It may be the first time in her life that she has been so serious about shining shoes, she suddenly became interested, took off her small round-toed leather shoes, turned her back to Nanahara Takeshi, knelt down at the entrance and began to wipe herself again - GET to a new skill, you need to strengthen the practice, and the leather shoes can also ignite, a little fun.
Nanahara glanced at her bubble socks—baggy socks, thicker socks that are slightly longer and thicker than regular socks, derived from boot socks that protect the calves when climbing.
Due to its good thermal performance, it was very popular in the Tohoku region of Honmoto in the 80s, and later it was adopted by the Hokkaido Prefecture as one of the special accessories for women's hand water clothing, and then became popular throughout the country.
This kind of socks is also very popular with female high school students, because girls wear skirts all year round, leg fat is easy to accumulate, coupled with the general short height, wearing this kind of socks piled on the feet and neck, it will appear that the legs are thinner, which can offset the adverse effects of radish legs in disguise, and can add a lot of overall points.
It's just that Kiyomi Ruri's legs are straight and slender, not radish legs, there are no these problems, wearing this kind of socks indoors looks a little draggy, it looks very eye-catching, a little uncomfortable, but Nanahara Takeshi didn't say anything, just glanced at it, and was ready to let her change into cotton over-the-knee socks later, and slowly transform her, not to mention that she wiped her small leather shoes, and continued to read there with a book.
Seven or eight minutes later, Kiyomi Ruri polished her round-toed small leather shoes shiny, put them on, sat in the hallway, looked at them twice, snorted twice, and was very satisfied, and then turned to Nanahara Takeshi and asked, "Okay, you've wiped the shoes, can I go back?" ”
It's not a loss, I helped him shine his shoes, but I also got new skills, and I also used his shoe polish and tools, which is basically even, no, it should be considered a little earned.
"No, go get a vacuum cleaner and dust the house." Nanahara Takeshi flipped through the pages, looked very attentively, and casually assigned her a new job.
Is this endless?
Kiyomi Ruri was very dissatisfied, but she had time to take a look at Takeshi Nanahara's living room, and was surprised at a glance, Takeshi Nanahara's living room was ridiculously simple, except for tatami mats, there was only a small square table and a few cushions.
In an instant, the resentment in her stomach disappeared a lot, and she finally remembered the fact that Takeshi Nanahara was an "orphan", living alone was far from being as easy as he seemed on the surface, no wonder he had become a money-obsessed ghost.
With a soft heart, she didn't yell at Nanahara Takeshi, but protested: "It's clean now, why do you have to clean it, you don't want to toss me on purpose, right?" "The living room is simple and simple, but it is really clean, not even a little dust can be seen in the corners, it is not like the place where the boys live, she does not feel the need to clean it at all.
"I see dust in my eyes, let you clean it, I'm the boss, I have the final say, and I'm not allowed to talk nonsense." Qiyuan Wu didn't raise his eyelids, his eyes kept on the page, he just rubbed his fingers at her, and signaled, "You still owe money, hurry up and work less BB."
Kiyomi Ruri couldn't help it, scolded him in his stomach, took the vacuum cleaner in the direction he pointed, connected it to the power and began to push it in the house, and after pushing the living room, he was ordered to scrub the stairs and the corridor on the second floor, and he was busy like a little bee for a while.
Nanahara Takeshi lay there and didn't move, just read his book, and when she finally finished working and came downstairs, she immediately said, "Wash your hands, wash them, and then go cook." ”
Kiyomi Ruri was already a little unbearable, and when she heard this, she couldn't believe it: "What? I promised to be your assistant, but I only have an hourly salary of 100 yen, and I have to cook for you? ”
This guy is such a bastard, maybe he should go raise money, pay it back directly, and then break up with him!
"It's the last job, and you'll be off work after cooking." T teach, no, domestication also requires a process, this is only the first day, you can't let her blow up, you have to go step by step, and Qiyuan Wu is not too demanding.
Well, if you just clean it every day and cook a meal, you can get rid of the debt, it's not impossible.
Kiyomi Ruri hesitated for a moment and confirmed, "Only cooking is left?" "If she has to go to the bathtub after cooking, she may have to change from a detective to a murderer and bury Takeshi Nanahara directly in the backyard.
"Yes."
"That'...... I'm going to work two hours today, no, three hours. Kiyomi Ruri took the opportunity to talk about the conditions, and when she got to work, she found out that the hourly wage of 100 yen was really a trick, and the more she worked, the more angry she became.
Qiyuan Wu didn't care about this little money with her, and waved his hand very coolly: "Count you for four hours!" ”
That's pretty much it!
Kiyomi Ruri snorted, became happy again, went to the bathroom to wash her hands, and then walked to the kitchen, asking in her mouth, "Do you use a rice cooker or a pot?" Do you have all the kitchen utensils? Where is the apron? ”
In fact, if Nanahara Wu begged her, she really wouldn't mind coming over every day to cook a hot meal for him, after all, this guy's background is quite pitiful, and he can rescue stray dogs.
"Use pots and kitchen utensils."
"It's good to have." Kiyomi Ruri is ready to show off her cooking skills, show her skills, and cook a good meal for Nanahara Takeshi, a "stray dog", but as soon as she pushed open the kitchen door, she was suddenly startled - the bedroom and study were not seen, but Nanahara Takeshi did not have a total of few pieces of furniture upstairs and downstairs, and he looked like a super poor ghost, but he didn't expect the kitchen to be luxurious and scared to death.
Two super large vertical fresh-keeping refrigerators, a set of transparent moisturizing and constant temperature sterilization cabinets, and a horizontal silent freezer are placed in a corner of the kitchen, with a shiny combination kitchen stove in the center, and three groups of knife racks next to it, and the rest of the pots and pans, cups, pots and pots are uncountable for a while, and there is even a huge double-layer oven.
Are you sick and spending all your money in the kitchen?
Kiyomi Ruri was shocked, and for a moment wondered if a person like herself, who had only learned how to cook miso soup, knead rice balls, make sandwiches, and fry fried tofu in home economics class, was worthy of standing here.
"What are you doing in a daze, the rice is in the cupboard, hurry up and work." Nanahara didn't wait this time, and the follow-up came. He is now the emperor's tongue, and he has very high requirements for eating, but he can't let her come nonsense, he has to teach him more carefully.
"Uh, okay......"
Kiyomi Ruri came back to his senses, quickly put on his apron, took out the pot, and opened the cabinet to take the rice, but the cabinet was opened, and there was a row of large and small rice bags inside, and he was stunned for a while, not knowing what kind of rice to use.
Nanahara Takeshi stood behind her and pointed, "The two bags on the left are japonica rice, take a measuring cup, take a cup and a half from the first bag, and take a quarter cup from the second bag." The third bag is Chan rice, also a quarter of a cup, and the fourth bag is sake rice, and a tenth of a cup is taken......"
Kiyomi Ruri interrupted him and was puzzled, "Why is it so troublesome?" ”
"Because the rice cooked this way is delicious."
"It's all rice, what's the difference, my mother only uses one kind of rice."
"And is your mother's cooking delicious?"
Kiyomi Ruri shut up, took the rice and put it into the pot according to Takeshi Nanahara's request, and then was about to go to get tap water, but was immediately stopped by Takeshi Nanahara, "Don't use tap water, there is mountain spring water in the refrigerator." ”
"It's just a meal, you really have a lot to do......" Kiyomi Ruri muttered, directly opened the refrigerator to get water, added it in an appropriate amount according to Nanahara Takeshi's requirements, and was about to sit on the stove.
"Haven't washed the rice yet." Nanahara Takeshi gave another instruction, "Add a little sesame oil, the kind in the No. 2 bottle above, a drop from the No. 3 bottle, put a little powder from the No. 4 bottle, and gently rub it with your hands for a while, just like massaging rice." ”
"Huh?"
"Do what I say, and remember it, and that's one of your main jobs in the future."
"Cut~" Kiyomi Ruri pursed her lips, added some sesame oil, and then began to "massage" the rice, and it was confirmed that Takeshi Nanahara was definitely a little sick!
Nanahara Takeshi was still not satisfied, and urged sternly in the back: "Be serious, add some emotion to it, the ingredients are like a mirror, it will treat you how you treat it, be religious." ”
"That's it!" Kiyomi Ruri was too lazy to quarrel with the mentally ill, so she began to rub hard - add feelings? I'll add resentment to it and poison you!
"Alas, the children can't be taught, let's change the water to the fire!" Domestication is not a day's work, and Nanahara Takeshi does not force her to become a qualified coolie in one day, so she can only grieve her tongue today.
"Be careful to choke to death later!" Kiyomi Ruri cursed persistently, turned on the fire and sat in the pot, then wiped her little hands on her apron and looked at the refrigerator and asked, "Is there miso and tofu?" I'll make you miso tofu soup. ”
Curse him and curse him, but he is still a poor ghost at heart, and she doesn't mind working hard to cook him a little harder.
"No need, your work for today is over." Takeshi Nanahara took a boiled egg timer and set it next to the pot to set the time for the rice.
Kiyomi Ruri was taken aback, and the movement of wiping her hands stopped, and she said in disbelief: "There is nothing else, you ...... Do you only eat rice? ”
In an instant, all her impatience and resentment vanished, and a deep sense of pity arose in her heart.
Yes, he lives alone, living on grants and scholarships, even if he can occasionally cheat some money, there are always some unavoidable expenses in life and study, and he is afraid that he mainly eats soy sauce bibimbap every day, right?
No wonder he asks so much for cooking, it turns out that this is almost all he has for dinner.
I shouldn't have cursed him just now, and I regretted it a little......
Kiyomi Ruri's heart softened, and he felt a little guilty that he had just cursed Nanahara Martial Arts to choke to death, and he wanted to go home and steal some meat from the refrigerator, but he didn't know how to speak, and he was a little afraid of hurting his self-esteem.
She was hesitating, when suddenly a hot breath with a strong fragrance came to her face, and Nanahara Takeshi opened the sealed oven and said with a smile: "How is it possible, I made a burgundy beef stew and roasted it regularly for three hours, and now the time is just right, and it will be ready to eat immediately." ”
As he spoke, he took a saucepan out of the oven wearing insulated gloves, and it was full of juicy chunks of beef, which looked terrible delicious.
Kiyomi Ruri's face is wooden.
