Chapter 228 Moonlight in the Garden
Without the "help" of the two troublemakers, Kino made rapid progress, and every delicious dish was baked and served on the table.

The ingredients that can be bought in Twilight City are not much different from those in the previous life, but the cooking methods are different, and the finished products are naturally very different.

In this era, the main cooking method is roasting. It is the same for folks or nobles. All ingredients are roasted on the fire, and they are hard roasted after sprinkled with seasonings. The taste is very single.

Kino used all kinds of cooking methods in his previous life, frying, boiling, frying, cooking, and frying made a table of dishes, including foie gras cooked in French style, roast goose with boneless pure meat, sea salt marinated turnip. Stir-fried beef cubes, deep-fried seafood omelets made of live lobsters, and a pot of hot silky chicken soup.

Although Lorna and Solandelle came from aristocratic backgrounds, they usually eat "healthy" nutritious meals, low in oil and salt, and very light.

Especially Solandelle, when she went to the folks to eat a piece of ordinary roasted pig's trotters, she could eat it with tears in her eyes. How could she have seen such a big meal?

At this moment, the two of them were like starving ghosts who hadn't eaten in eight lifetimes. Even Solandelle couldn't keep her restraint anymore, and started to gobble it up. If she didn't care about being a guest, she might have grabbed it with her hands.

Lorna, on the other hand, was like a real giant dragon, crazily sending food into her mouth, chewing a few times before swallowing, and then impatiently picked up the next piece of food, saying indistinctly: "Kino, the meat you cooked is too much." It’s delicious! If you don’t want to be an administrator in the future, you can resign and become a chef in Lenglie Valley, and you will definitely conquer the stomachs of those dragon knights!”

Kino couldn't help smiling: "Forget it, my salary is settled in silver months, which is pretty good. If I want to be a chef, wouldn't I only be able to settle in copper months?"

Lorna smirked and said, "What are you talking about! Your culinary skills can't be overstated by Jin Yue's settlement! I have never eaten such delicious food!"

Chino: "Don't you have a palace cook in your family? Their cooking skills should not be bad, right?"

Lorna sighed heavily: "Hey, don't mention it! The palace chefs can't stand the temperature in Lenglie Valley, so they don't want to come. We usually have to fly out to eat, or roast with dragon's breath."

"The last time my dad cooked a meal himself, yue~ you don't know how bad his cooking is! I gave my family Fei Ye a bite of his rice, and Fei Ye Lianye made me four dishes and one soup. "

The three of them ate and chatted, talking and laughing. After eating for almost two hours, Lorna and Solandelle ate their bellies round. Want to eat. But can't eat anymore."

"Okay, don't spoil your stomach, come here first today, and I'll make it for you later when I have a chance." Kino stood up, "Let's go, go for a walk to digest food."

The government residence covers a large area and has a dedicated back garden. The temperature has already warmed up in the "fog and rain" season, but the evening breeze is still cool, and the moon is hidden behind the veil-like clouds, emitting a soft light.

The shadows of the trees intertwined and stretched in the hazy moon, the three of them walked in the garden, Kino and Lorna strolled on both sides, and Solandelle bounced in the middle, her figure seemed to blend into the night.

The three of them came to a lawn. Solandelle sat on a chair, while Lorna lay down carelessly, looking up at the starry sky.

Kino came to a tall tree, picked three round things with his mind, washed them in the pool, and walked over with them: "Come, eat some fruits after dinner."

Solandelle took it, stared at it and wowed: "Is this from the apple tree I gave you?"

Kino: "Hmm, it's the first time it bears fruit after planting it, and I haven't had time to taste it yet."

For those who fill their stomachs, the refreshing fruit after a meal is very attractive. Lorna couldn't wait to take a bite, but before chewing twice, she suddenly froze, and cried with a wrinkled face: "Okay~~bitter~ ~Ah~~”

"Bitter?" Kino also took a bite, feeling the rich sweetness in his mouth, which was no different from the one he ate for the first time in Solandelle's room. He said doubtfully, "It's very sweet, how could it be bitter?"

Solandelle took the apple and bit it down. While chewing, she smiled sheepishly and said, "It still tastes the same, it's really bitter. This is the type of apple."

"Because the doctor told me that good medicine tastes bitter and bitter things are good for health, so I planted a lot of these apples, but everyone didn't seem to like them"

Lorna gave Solandelle a lot of face, and forced herself to finish eating the apple, but her face was wrinkled from the bitterness: "It's so bitter. Kino, why do you say it's sweet?"

Solandelle also tilted her head: "Yes, they were all picked from a tree, and yours should be bitter too."

Kino chewed slowly, as if tasting a delicious dessert, he shrugged: "I don't know why you find it bitter, but I tasted it, it was very sweet."

"Well, maybe your sense of taste is different from ours." Lorna only found this explanation.

This kind of disagreement about the sweetness and bitterness of apples also appeared in Wangcheng. At that time, Chino and Sting ate the apples grown by Solandelle, and Sting also said that they were frighteningly bitter.

Kino originally thought it was Sting's own taste problem, but now Solandelle and Lorna both said it was bitter, which was a bit strange.

Chino did have a congenital genetic defect and suffered from painlessness, but he did not have a taste disorder. He didn't know why others would taste bitter
He was sure it was sweet.

The three of them didn't continue to dwell on the topic of apples. While chatting, they looked up at the starry sky, and the sea of ​​stars was reflected in their pupils, like a dream.

There are ups and downs in the world, but in front of the scale of the universe, a thousand years in the human world is just a flick of a finger, and the starry sky in front of me may be like this in the era of the Sun King, shining extremely brightly.

Looking up at the night, Kino asked, "Lorna, I have a question for you. Why did you have conflicts with Graber during the day? I don't think you two have a purely personal grievance. Hostile."

Lorna was still smiling playfully just now, rolling and playing on the lawn, like a little dragon cub that just broke its shell, but when she heard this question, she immediately turned around on the lawn, with her back to the two of them and did not move. , remained silent and did not speak, and could not see her expression.

Solandelle gently took Kino's hand, shook her head at him, and signaled not to ask this question.

Chino is not the kind of person who is extremely curious, and he didn't intend to force Lorna to say something she didn't want to say. He just wanted to change the subject, but he never thought that Lorna would speak up on his own initiative.
"My mother" Lorna's voice was very low and sad, with a kind of hesitation, as if she was struggling to expose the bloody wound in her heart to others.

In the end, maybe because she had initial trust in Kino, she whispered the second half of the sentence: "My mother died at the hands of the Troy family."
