To the eternal you

Prayer is in the kitchen.

I just cleaned the ingredients, and now I am thinking about what to cook. White radish should be the first choice for soup, and hot radish in winter is better than ginseng.

Afterwards, he took a few white porcelain plates with ingredients on them, containing sliced ​​potatoes, vegetables, carrots and other nutritious ingredients, as well as two good steaks.

It is said that it is the special frozen fresh meat shipped from Mond. It has an excellent taste that ordinary wild boars do not have, but it also has a more wild smell.

So the girl is still carrying out the necessary steps to remove the fishy smell, scalding and scalding in boiling water.

"By the way, Mom, pay attention to the temperature. If the fire is too high, it will burn."

Qi looked at Mama Ying, who was also wearing a kitchen apron, her exquisite and slim body was still uneven under the cover of the large apron.

At this time, she was holding a pot in one hand and a knife in the other, looking cautiously at the stove.

"Ok!"

How should I put it, the surprise is full of momentum, but it doesn't need such a big fanfare just because of the temperature, right?

The crimson flame swallowed snake-like fireworks, and the charcoal crackled, and the little snake-like swimming fire gradually roasted the pitch-black charcoal red, turned gray, and then dispersed into a wisp of fireworks.

After Qi probably confirmed the temperature, he put the small iron pot on it. From the actions of Ying's mother, it was obvious that she was a beginner who had never been in the kitchen. In addition, there were clear soup base and red oil soup base in the iron pot. .

She put it down from the beginning, she was afraid that Ying's mother would blow up the stove if she was not careful, and the pot must have a big hole after the overload reaction, so tonight she and her mother can only hold the unprocessed steak and eat it raw up.

After the small meeting, the soup was gurgling and rolling, and the heat and aroma came out. The kitchen finally looked like this. Qi put the ingredients in without haste, red and white radishes, green vegetables, thin yellow potato chips, When boiled together, it is like a hodgepodge, which is both beautiful.

"Let's cook it like this for a while, you can't eat it until it's cooked."

The girl put the lid on the pot and looked at the cautious mother Ying.

"Have you learned it, Mom?"

"No, no problem, even I know that the food must be cooked before eating, just leave it to me."

Shadow put his hands on his hips and said with some air.

"Well, just take a look once in a while. Don't be too nervous. After all, it takes time to cook the food. I'll go and see how the steak is doing."

The girl nodded in satisfaction, then turned around and flicked her cute braids like a fish, went to the side to pick up the meat scalded by boiling water, and began to check the color and smell, poking it from time to time.

After about a while, Yingmama's panicked voice came.

"Pray, pray! Why is there white bubbles under the pot lid?"

"It's just a normal phenomenon. It will be like this after the soup is boiled. If mom is curious, you can open it and have a look."

Qi made a rough estimate, picked up the steak, the perfect shape of the steak was stained with water vapor, and then put some spices and sauce to marinate for a while before grilling.

Handle the steps here, praying to look back.

Mother Ying nervously picked up the lid of the pot, and held a pot in the other hand. The bottom of the pot was facing the lid, as if to block the heat. She sneaked a glance at the tumbling food, feeling a little proud for some reason.

"Pray! The vegetables seem to be almost cooked!"

"Okay, I'll come over now~"

The busy girl like a bee washed her hands, wiped off the water droplets on the apron in front of her, and then rushed to Ying's side.

She also kindly blocked the bottom of the pot in front of Qi, and when the girl turned her head to look at it suspiciously, she showed a slightly proud smile.

"This way you won't be scalded by the gurgling heat."

Noticing that the tip of her mother's nose was reddish, Qi laughed a little.

"Mom is getting too close."

She put the lid of the pot aside, picked up a spoon to fill up some hot soup, blew it lightly, and then took a sip.

The soup seems to be well integrated with the ingredients, and the concentrated umami taste blooms on the taste buds, making people unable to help but take a few more sips. She handed the spoon to her mother.

"Mom, let's try it too~"

"Good, good."

She took her daughter's spoon, and watched her turn back and poke the food lightly with her chopsticks to confirm, a little cute, and then subconsciously sipped the soup on the spoon.

Pretending to be ignorant, he sipped lightly along the position that Qi touched just now, the soup was slightly hot, but after drinking it, he always felt his body warm up.

"Well, it's almost there, Mom, try this again~"

The girl picked up a piece of radish and put it on her spoon, then looked at her expectantly.

When the radish is in the mouth, there is a smooth and hot feeling, and the juice overflows. The combination of the fragrance and the umami of the soup permeates the air.

It's been a long time... I haven't eaten such a dish.

The corners of her mouth couldn't help but draw, showing a contented smile.

"Well, it's delicious."

The girl who got the expression she wanted to see was equally satisfied, picked up the pot, went to the room with her mother, and put it on the small round table.

Then he went back to the kitchen and put the almost suitable bacon on the side of the special barbecue grill.

The sound of sizzling meat and the smell of oil soon wafted outside, making Ying feel even more hungry, which he had never felt this way before.

The meat steak that had been processed quickly turned brown in color. The girl gently cut off the meat and picked it up, and handed it to her mouth with a sweet smile.

Ying took a bite, breathing out because it was hot, and at the same time was moved by the full gravy and heart in the meat.

"Pray, it's delicious."

She admired in a low voice, but she was also embarrassed to cover her greasy mouth.

"Hmph~ enjoy this dinner."

After waiting for a while and grilling two steaks, the two returned to the warm room together.

Enjoy this dinner quietly, without talking, as long as you taste it carefully, you can feel the heart of the food.

That is a "word" that can replace a thousand words

After eating the dishes beautifully, Ying looked at the girl who was packing the tableware and was a little curious.

"Qi, why did you want to learn cooking before?"

After putting away the plate in her hand, the girl showed a slightly nostalgic smile.

"Probably because the first time you ate food, you felt very happy?"

She scratched her cheek, a little shy.

"At that time, I was very curious about the taste of the shiny crystal butterfly. After eating it, I tasted the scarlet petals. At that time, I thought it was delicious."

The girl's words made Ying's heart suddenly lift up.

"Later, Granny Tsubaki also cooked delicious food for me. When I ate it, I could feel that the world had become more colorful, as if I had come alive to look at the world in a different way."

"I want my mother to experience that delicious feeling, so maybe we will have more in common~"

Ying clenched his hands under the table.

"Qi, I want to keep eating your cooking from now on."

"Okay, it's mom after all."

The girl picked up the tableware, and Ying helped her pick up the heaviest pot, and the two walked together to the kitchen.

While chatting and laughing, most of the time, Qi took the initiative to throw out the topic, and Ying occasionally answered, even if it seemed to her that there was some cold joke, Qi would laugh out loud.

The tableware will be cleaned by the chefs from the Okakusho. After all, it is a violation of etiquette to let the Ogosho-sama cook by himself. If they wash the dishes by themselves, they will start to doubt whether they have done something wrong. The Ogosho-sama uses this euphemism way to warn them.

The girl walked forward with her hands behind her back, flicking her neat and lovely braids.

She came to the yard and stopped, tiptoed slightly, and stretched out her hand as if wanting to touch the stars.

"pray...?"

"Ah, I'm a little shy to be seen by my mother."

The girl turned around, with a blush on her cheeks, and her outstretched hand was hanging on her chest.

"I sometimes want to do that when I'm alone at night, as if I'm a little closer to the stars."

"I am very happy today. I am so happy that I am in a trance. I wonder if I am dreaming."

Tears flowed from the corners of her eyes, crystal clear, but she smiled softly and peacefully.

Ying silently walked up to her and hugged her gently.

"sorry..."

"No, I'm not sorry... Mom has something else to say, right?"

The girl clings to her.

"Well... there is indeed something else."

Shadow rubbed his daughter's forehead, and then parted a little. The clouds in the sky drifted past, and the covered bright moonlight shone on the girl.

It was so beautiful that it was dreamy, and even she felt like she was dreaming.

"Pray, I like you."

Sincere emotion seems to break the illusory hazy boundary.

Also pour out the words that are backlogged in the bottom of my heart.

"...Um."

The girl's voice became lower.

"So, can...let me...can I kiss you one more time?"

Ying lowered his head and looked at the surprised girl, his words were full of deep love.

"No."

Qi gently covered the lips of the other party who wanted to get closer.

"It's too cheap for mom, wait until next time, after I forgive mom."

The pitiful squirrel-like gaze made the girl giggle.

Not far from the side of the two, Huasanli, who was dressed in a red and white witch costume and a cat face mask, was so transparent that she could hardly see them, quietly watching the two of them.

His eyes were faint, like a will-o'-the-wisp that suddenly lit up at night.
