Mystery: The whole good living master

In order to prevent getting lost in the intricate streets around Iron Cross Street that had no municipal planning, Mu Fange opened the Traveler's Gate directly downstairs of the apartment rented by the Moretti family.

When Mu Fan Ge knocked on the door and entered the room, Melissa was trying to explain to her brother how normal young people fall in love.

Klein pulled his ear in confusion: Isn't it true that a normal relationship can start as long as you muster up the courage to invite the other person to the cafeteria for dinner?

(This is all due to the damn Time Worm No. 1)

Melissa was startled by Mu Fange, who was carrying a large bag of food, and hurried over to help.

Mu Fangge used his demigod-level agility to easily avoid Melissa's outstretched hand, and like a slippery fish, he slipped through the pursuit and blockade of the two Morettis.

Melissa put her hands in front of her and followed Mu Fange anxiously: "Did you buy too many ingredients?"

"No, there are just a few more varieties. It's less than a week's supply, so it won't go bad in this season..." Mu Fange fully demonstrated his experience in accurately calculating the freshness of food and consumables data when playing simulation catering games before the time travel.

"Look at this. Chicken legs, onions, bell peppers, potatoes... just cut these up and fry them to make a dish."

While counting, Mu Fange took out the corresponding ingredients from the big cloth bag and put them into a brown paper bag, and then stacked them neatly on the windowsill between the window and the fence.

"Cut the pork tenderloin into strips and fry it with garlic over high heat until cooked through. Then add the lettuce. Don't overcook it. Remove from the pan when it's just cooked through."

Melissa stood beside him, somewhat flattered, trying to memorize the recipes Mu Fange provided. However, Mu Fange spoke too fast, and Melissa soon couldn't keep up with the pace because there were too many and too complicated recipes. Under the influence of her true vision that loved potions, her eyes even turned into a series of mosquito-repellent eyes.

"Then we have beef shank bones and white radish. Cut the white radish into thin slices, blanch the bones in water, and then stew them... Brussels sprouts, tomatoes, and beef brisket are also stewed. Blanch the beef brisket first, then stir-fry the tomatoes to extract the juice, tear the Brussels sprouts into pieces by hand, cut the potatoes into strips, and stew them together... Forget it, I might as well come over tomorrow and cook for you!"

Mu Fan Ge made clear arrangements for Melissa's nutritional diet for the next week as she was still growing.

Melissa was shocked by this sudden concern and stood there at a loss: It was her first day meeting Miss Almana, right? She was a complete stranger to Miss Almana, right? Could someone really be so nice to someone they met for the first time?

As gentle as a mother - this thought suddenly appeared in Melissa's mind.

For some reason, her sight suddenly lost focus and her vision became blurry. Miss Almana's figure also blurred into a silhouette, which reminded Melissa of her mother who had passed away. Since her mother's death, Melissa had to be strong, independent, and sensible to share the pressure with her brothers. Although her brothers loved her very much, there was no longer a gentle mother around her who could take care of her unconditionally and meticulously...

Sometimes, suffering and setbacks will not make strong people cry. Instead, it is the empathy, care and concern that can soften people's hearts.

No! This is absolutely not normal! Is Miss Almana's love for her brother due to her love for him, or is it because she is gentle to everyone?

Melissa's brain was working so fast and she was brainstorming so intensely that she completely ignored the question of where Mu Fan Ge bought so many fresh ingredients.

Mu Fan Ge closed the window and took out the remaining two potatoes, a tomato, a white onion, two heads of garlic, a carrot and lamb chops from the bag. After thinking for a moment, he opened the window again and took back the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half.

Melissa, who was too sensible, quickly pulled her brother forward and wanted to take over the job of washing the vegetables.

But Mu Fange was not going to let them get involved. He held the basin with one hand and used the back of his free hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of Melissa's eyes.

He hadn't even cut the onions yet, so why were Melissa's eyes red?

Mu Fange used his body to push Klein away. In Mu Fange's view, Melissa was a child and Klein was a kitten. They didn't need to work and just had to wait for food.

Mu Fange took the basin full of ingredients to the public washroom to fetch water for washing the vegetables, leaving behind in the room two failed cooked prawns with steam coming out of their heads and red cheeks, unable to move due to physical contact with the succubus.

(Adam: It makes sense that the brother and sister have the same preferences.)

…………

Mu Fange was using the knife skills he had gained from playing games to cut vegetables: wash the potatoes, cut them into dice with the skin on, remove the stems of the tomatoes, peel the onions, and cut them into four large pieces with cross cuts, cut the garlic in half horizontally with the skin on, cut the carrots into thick slices, cut the lamb chops along the bones, and remove the fascia.

Although the feel of chopping melons and vegetables is different from that of chopping people, the principle is the same.

Melissa squatted beside Mu Fange, and tried to persuade him with both emotion and reason. Finally, she succeeded in getting the task of tearing the cabbage by hand by acting cute. Now Melissa and Klein were in charge of tearing the half cabbage into pieces.

Then throw the lamb chops into the pan and fry until they are shaped and changed color, the bottom is slightly charred and the fat is melted. Roast the vegetables that have been cut in advance over the flame of the coal stove for a while, and throw them into the pan together. Wait until the vegetables have completely absorbed the gravy and fat in the pot, and the potatoes and cabbage are fully cooked... Precious ingredients only require the simplest cooking methods. The busy Chef Mu then takes out the baked soft garlic, peels and crushes it, mixes it with butter softened at room temperature, and sprinkles it with black pepper and salt to season. This is a simple roast lamb chops and seasonal vegetables with garlic white sauce!

(No, you can really cook?)

While Mu Fange was busy putting the finished dishes on plates, Melissa had the foresight to drag out a folding table from under the bunk bed, skillfully set up the table top next to the bunk bed, and wiped the dust off it with a rag.

This folding dining table moved with the three siblings twice. Later, Benson was busy with work and was always on business trips. Klein was admitted to university and didn't go home often. Melissa could solve the problem of three meals a day at the desk by herself. This dining table, which is not much younger than Melissa, has not had the opportunity to appear for a long time.

Mu Fan Ge turned his back to Klein and Melissa who were busy wiping the table, and secretly stretched out his evil hands towards the food on the plate - good, he didn't steal anything, which meant that this plate of food did not contain any substances that were harmful to ordinary people!

Mu Fange put his guilty feeling aside, put the plate on the table and made a "please enjoy" gesture.

The charred lamb chops were covered with a thin layer of golden, transparent fat, with a section of shiny bone soaked in soup exposed at both ends. They were neatly stacked on large pieces of cabbage leaves along with steaming light yellow potatoes, wrinkled dark red tomatoes, milky white, translucent onions, and orange carrot slices.

The two thin Moretti men, who looked malnourished for a long time, sat side by side uncomfortably on the lower bunks of the bunk bed, watching Mu Fange fill up the bowls in front of them in no time.

Melissa drank juice, while Mu Fan Ge shared a bottle of ginger beer with Klein.

The roasted cabbage has a refreshing sweetness, the potatoes are soft and glutinous, the tomatoes are full of sweet and sour hot juice, the onions are sweet and oily on the outside, and slightly spicy on the inside... The lamb meat is very tender, with a perfect balance of fat and lean meat. The heat is just right, and the abundant gravy is locked inside by the high temperature. The mutton smell has long evaporated during the frying, leaving only the unique mellow milky and meaty aroma of the lamb. With a light bite, the crispy lamb meat falls off the bone completely.

Mu Fan Ge prepared two kinds of dipping sauces: butter garlic white sauce and black pepper salt, which were used to match vegetables and lamb chops respectively. There were meat, vegetables and dipping sauces. Look! Caucasian rice is so simple!

Mu Fangge watched with a smile as the two nervous and reserved people suddenly became active after tasting the lamb chops, eating with great concentration.

Inexplicably, he felt like raising piglets - no, no, no, this idea was too blasphemous. Mu Fan Ge shook his head and threw the wrong thoughts out of his mind.

By the way, Melissa turned into a squirrel under the True Vision effect of the Love Potion! And it was a red squirrel with a big fluffy tail... Why is that?

Mu Fan Ge originally thought that the ability of the Eye of True Vision was only to see the extraordinary forms of others, but now Klein and Melissa are both ordinary people, but they can also be affected by the Eye of True Vision... In the food world of the mother nest, the Eye of True Vision can also see the essence of things through the appearance... What kind of system is the love potion, which has never appeared in the original work? If you want to find the answer, seeking promotion may be the only way.

Also, Klein is a black cat, Melissa is a red squirrel, so what would Benson be?

If you don’t understand, just ask. Seeing that Melissa and Klein had eaten their fill and the food on their plates had been cleared away, Mu Fan Ge took the opportunity to ask a question: “I heard Klein say before that you have a brother?”

Klein couldn't help but wonder: Did I say that?

Melissa, who was completely familiar with Mu Fan Ge, nodded and chattered about introducing her brother Benson to Mu Fan Ge.

Klein thought about it: Maybe I forgot...

"Benson is our brother. He works for an import and export trading company. They do some commercial import and export trade with the southern continent, such as some agricultural products and industrial products... For example, various canned goods..." Melissa slapped her head and remembered: "Oh, yes, this... Central steam heating device, this technology comes from the southern continent. It was Benson who introduced their company's business to the landlord!"

Mu Fange listened with a smile to the information that was not explained in the original work or changed due to the butterfly effect. At the same time, his hands were not idle as he quickly picked up the empty bowls, plates and forks.

"And the gas lamp on the desk." Klein added, pointing in the direction of the desk.

After being reminded, Melissa excitedly explained, “Yes, my brother also persuaded the landlord to install that gas lamp. The landlord helped us bear most of the cost of the pipeline modification. This new gas lamp was also bought by my brother from the company at cost price!”

"My brother works very hard. He always works overtime and is always on business trips. Now he seldom comes back to live with us..." Melissa felt a little disappointed. Although she was very sensible and considerate of her brother, she missed him very much.

Klein sighed, "There's nothing we can do about it. The trade competition in the Southern Continent is too fierce. The policies there are very conservative, and there's a lot of demand in the Northern Continent. Although the price of raw materials in the Southern Continent, the cost space and market are very large, there are too many merchants in the Northern Continent. After dividing it among each company, we won't make much..."

Melissa complained quietly: “Even if we make money, it won’t be included in the clerk’s salary.”

Mu Fange picked up the plate and stood up: "Klein will graduate soon, everything will be fine."

"Yes! Everything will be fine!" Melissa's clear eyes once again lit up with twinkling lights.

Then Melissa's eyes followed Mu Fan Ge's movements, and she quickly realized that she had made a mistake - she had once again lost the initiative in washing dishes!

Mu Fan Ge: The plan works!

"Please! Please, Miss Almana, let me wash the dishes!" Melissa, who tried to use force to snatch the plates but failed, begged Mu Fange with her hands folded.

But Mu Fan Ge was unmoved. He looked at Melissa's hands. The skin was rough and cracked, there were scars on the fingertips caused by welding guns and knives, there was a thin layer of calluses on the palms, and there were a few red spots like frostbite on the back of her hands. It was obvious that she often did housework. It didn't look like a little girl's hands at all!

No! Absolutely not! The water is so cold in winter, and you want Melissa to wash the dishes? You must be kidding! Absolutely not!

When Mu Fange didn't come, Melissa washed the dishes. When Mu Fange came, Melissa still washed the dishes. Then didn't Mu Fange come in vain?

"You're the best, Almana. You cooked the meal, so I have to wash the dishes, right?" Melissa tried to use the same trick again.

But tearing cabbage by hand and washing dishes are not important jobs in Mu Fan Ge's eyes, so the answer is still: No!

Melissa stood in front of Mu Fange and glared at him, pretending to be angry, but Mu Fange refused to listen and didn't say anything or lose his temper. He just stared at Melissa blankly.

"Not...that...but..."

"Me! I've always been responsible for cooking and washing dishes... You can't take my job..."

"Let's be reasonable...If you want to eat, you have to work. You can't eat for free, right?"

"Klein you!"

"But...but..."

Melissa only held on for a short while before she surrendered under Mu Fange's gaze.

So, under Melissa's resentful gaze, Klein whistled, picked up the pot, and followed Mu Fange to the public bathroom.

For some reason, the landlord was unusually quiet today. Even though three young people were chatting, washing dishes, and cleaning pots in the public bathroom... they failed to attract the short, thin, and stingy landlord who always knocked on the bathroom door with his cane.
