Yukinoshita's Correction Method

"Thank you for your hard work~" Yukinoshita Haruno handed Azuma Yunshan some hot tea, "If it weren't for you, I would have to unpack it at the door and take it in one by one."

"It's just a piece of cake." Dong Yunshan drank the tea and went back to continue studying with Yukinoshita Yukino.

Yukinoshita Yukino explained in great detail: "Wasabi is rich in isothiocyanates, so adding freshly ground wasabi to teriyaki sauce not only adds flavor but also promotes protein absorption..."

"Touyun~" Yukinoshita Haruno called from the bedroom, "Can you come over here for a moment?"

"Yeah." Dong Yunshan agreed, then looked at Yukinoshita Yukino.

Yukinoshita Yukino closed her eyes and waved her hand.

Dong Yunshan walked into Yukinoshita Haruno's bedroom and saw the folded quilt.

"Could you please help me put this up there?" Yukinoshita Haruno pointed to the upper space inside the closet. "I tried several times but couldn't get it in."

The position is a bit high, and the quilt is soft and big, so it is not easy to squeeze in.

"It's no big deal." Dong Yunshan reached out, tiptoed slightly, and stuffed the folded quilt in.

"It was so easy?" Yukinoshita Haruno's eyes were full of surprise. "If I had called you earlier, I wouldn't have had to waste so much energy just now."

"Is there anything else?"

"I can handle the rest myself. By the way," Yukinoshita Haruno took out a wooden box, "This is for you."

"Hmm?" Dong Yunshan took it and said, "This is...?"

"I originally wanted to give it to my father, but after buying it, I realized that my mother had already bought the same thing for him." Yukinoshita Haruno blinked, "So this one is yours now. Consider it a thank you for your hard work these past few days."

Dong Yunshan opened the wooden box and saw two handkerchiefs inside.

Although he didn't know much about these things, they didn't look cheap.

"It's too expensive." Dong Yunshan closed the box. "I feel that even if there are a few more of the same ones, Mr. Yukinoshita would still want to receive the one you gave him."

"But I don't need to give him the same one. I can just buy him a new one." Yukinoshita Haruno's cheeks puffed up slightly. "Or should I give it to Yukino and let her give it to you, then you will accept it?"

"...Thank you, I like it very much." Dong Yunshan had no choice but to accept it and walked out with the box.

Seeing what was in Azuma Yunshan's hand, Yukinoshita frowned slightly: "What is that?"

"Handkerchief." Azuma Yunshan opened the box and showed it to Yukinoshita Yukino.

Yukinoshita Yukino's brows furrowed a little deeper. In her impression, her sister would not do anything unnecessary without any intention. "She gave it to you?"

Dong Yunshan nodded: "It's for your father."

Yukinoshita Yukino: "Hmm?"

Volume 4 is about to start school: Chapter 132 Adjustment

"I'm planning to give it to your father," Dong Yunshan explained briefly. "...but it's too expensive, so I'm wondering whether I should accept it."

"It's not as expensive as you think." Yukinoshita Yukino glanced at the brand and said, "Just keep it."

"I'm so grateful for what I've received." Dong Yunshan flicked his finger, and the box began to spin on his fingertips. "Now that I've received the gift, shouldn't I focus more on cooking?"

"From what you said, you didn't intend to put your heart into it?" Yukinoshita Yukino narrowed her cold eyes. "If you want to improve in a short period of time, you must do your best."

"Then I'll keep it." Dong Yunshan opened the box, took out a handkerchief, and wiped his forehead twice, "Hey, Xueno, do you think I look like..."

Yukinoshita Yukino: "Hmm?"

"Does this look like someone who would use a handkerchief like this?" Dong Yunshan put the handkerchief away. "It doesn't really match my style of dress."

"Then wait until the style is right before using it." Yukinoshita Yukino threw the rag to Azuma Yunshan, "This is what you're going to use now."

"Indeed." Azuma Yunshan took the rag, wiped the countertop, and continued to prepare lunch under the guidance of Yukinoshita Yukino. "By the way, I just remembered that I haven't given you a gift since I received your sister's gift."

"For me?" Yukinoshita Yukino blinked blankly, and naturally thought of her sister's original intention of giving the gift to Azuma Yunshan. "Did you prepare a gift for your mother?"

Dong Yunshan: “Hmm?”

"Isn't it?" Yukinoshita Yukino tilted her head, "Then why did you give me a gift?"

"...your sister said the gift was a thank you for the past few days." Dong Yunshan skillfully cut the eggplant with a diamond-shaped knife, his speed a little frightening. "Think about it carefully, you worked much harder than me these past few days, and yet I didn't give you any gifts."

The rich young lady, who had no relatives or friends in the family, gave up her vacation to enjoy herself and was busy helping to take care of the baby. She wrote a detailed plan and couldn't even sleep well at night.

Dong Yunshan just invited him to a meal and asked him to teach him cooking.

I didn't pay attention to it before, but now looking back, it was really unkind of a thing to do.

Yukinoshita Yukino glanced at him: "You have delivered it."

"Have you ever given it to me? Ah... that was caught with your money." Dong Yunshan recalled, "and it was just a doll."

"You caught it." Yukinoshita Yukino's face was stern. "And it's not just a doll..." She paused and added, "It's Johnny the Panda."

Dong Yunshan glanced at the row of Johnny Pandas under the TV cabinet and nodded slightly: "I remember."

The teaching continued and the two continued to be busy as before.

But his eyes would fall on the wooden box from time to time.

A gift of gratitude...

Before this, neither Yukinoshita Yukino nor Azuma Yunshan had ever considered this basic social etiquette.

And once it is taken into consideration, it can no longer be ignored.

The small wooden box seemed to slowly expand, turning into a barrier between the two people, gradually widening the distance between them.

Politeness is amazing.

It can make strangers become familiar.

It can also make familiar people become strangers.

"Toyomo~" Yukinoshita Haruno's voice came from the bathroom, "Please bring the clothes on the bed, thank you for your hard work."

"Wait a moment." Dong Yunshan agreed, walked into the right second bedroom, picked up the clothes on the bed, and walked towards... the bathroom?!

"Give it to me." Yukinoshita Yukino raised her chin towards the kitchen.

Dong Yunshan immediately handed the clothes to her and turned to walk towards the kitchen.

Yukinoshita Yukino knocked on the bathroom door, opened it a crack, and handed the clothes in.

"Huh?" Yukinoshita Haruno's face appeared through the gap, "Thank you, Yukino."

"Are you surprised?" Yukinoshita Yukino's eyes were cold, "Sister Yang No?"

She actually went to such lengths... Yukinoshita Yukino completely understood her sister's thoughts.

Ask Dong Yunshan for help, then give him a gift to express gratitude, which will make Dong Yunshan think about the issue of social etiquette.

This caused Yukinoshita Yukino and Azuma Yunshan to reflect on their relationship with each other.

Are the two of them really close enough to accept each other's help with peace of mind?

No matter what the result of the reflection is, once it begins, the relationship between the two is destined to be re-examined.

Both of them will treat this relationship with caution until there is a result.

This also widened the distance.

At this time, Yukinoshita Haruno took the opportunity to close the distance.

No matter how many times Yukinoshita Yukino defeated her sister over Azuma Yunshan, Yukinoshita Haruno could always win her back over Azuma Yunshan.

Just one gift can turn the situation around.

"I didn't expect Yukino to help me." Yukinoshita Haruno smiled slightly, "If I had known earlier, I would have asked you for help directly."

"It's better for you to work harder." Yukinoshita Yukino closed the bathroom door and returned to the kitchen. "The teaching plan needs to be adjusted."

"More adjustments are needed?" Dong Yunshan asked, "What are the specific details?"

"You'll be cooking for the next few days, and I'll be responsible for explaining the principles and correcting any errors." Yukinoshita Yukino pushed the half-processed ingredients toward Higashi Yunshan. "You need to learn to follow recipes on your own, so you can learn more dishes in the future."

"That makes sense. Let's do it this way." Dong Yunshan said confidently, "Leave it to me!"

"I talk, you do the work. The better I teach, the better you cook, and the better I eat. This is the reward for my hard work, no extra thanks needed." Yukinoshita Yukino's lips curled up slightly, "If you must give me something as a thank you, how about giving me a corrected you?"

"You reminded me." Dong Yunshan's eyes lit up. "Isn't it like giving you a great gift if I correct you?"

"It doesn't matter what you think." Yukinoshita Yukino snorted, "If you can really do it."

"Don't be impatient." Dong Yunshan handled the ingredients skillfully. "It takes time."

"That depends on the process and what the result will be." Yukinoshita Yukino pointed, "Just like cod, the same refrigeration process, different time, the taste will also change."

Dong Yunshan humbly asked: "How long should it be refrigerated?"

"Go look at the menu." Yukinoshita Yukino began to implement the new teaching plan.

After taking a shower, Yukinoshita Haruno wiped her hair and looked towards the kitchen.

Azuma Yunshan and Yukinoshita Yukino were both in the kitchen.

Unlike before, only Azuma Yunshan was busy, with Yukinoshita Yukino supervising on the side.

Neither of them... looked at the wooden box placed aside.

Yukinoshita Yukino heard the voice and turned around to meet her sister's gaze.

Want to distance ourselves?

The corners of Yukinoshita Yukino's mouth rose slightly.

This kind of mutually corrective relationship is not so easy to break.

Volume 4: School is about to start: Chapter 133: Friend Invitation

"Tempura depends 30% on technique and 70% on the ingredients. Different ingredients require different preparation methods." Yukinoshita Yukino explained the key points, "So the pre-treatment of the ingredients..."

"No, no, no, I've been really busy lately." Yukinoshita Haruno curled up on the sofa, looking so lazy that she didn't look like a rich lady at all. "I won't tell you recently~"

Noticing the look Yukinoshita Yukino was giving her, Yukinoshita Haruno blinked and responded simply: "That's all, let's talk again when we have time."

Seeing her sister hang up the phone, Yukinoshita Yukino continued, "Root vegetables can be heated in the microwave for two minutes to soften the cell walls. Leafy vegetables should be sprayed with water mist and then quick-frozen for ten minutes to preserve the color. Mushrooms should..."

The ringtone rang, and Dong Yunshan pointed to his cell phone.

Yukinoshita Yukino stopped explaining and poured herself a cup of black tea.

"This is Dong Yunshan. Um... um... okay, I roughly understand." Dong Yunshan explained the situation concisely. "In short, you want me to help you find someone, but you only have a photo - is that right?"

Yukinoshita Yukino looked up at him.

"There is indeed a method of finding someone through a photo... but I don't accept any apprentices," Dong Yunshan refused flatly. "There are many people who have mastered this method now, and you should have heard various related reports, so it's best not to spread it if possible."

Yukinoshita Yukino nodded slightly and took a sip of tea.

"I can help you find it... I can." As soon as Dong Yunshan said this, he immediately felt the gaze of Yukinoshita Yukino, "But I have other things to do now and don't have time. I can introduce you to someone who is professional in finding people."

After hanging up the phone, Dong Yunshan sent the contact information, added two more messages, and put the phone aside.

"Temperature control is the key to successful tempura, and it's also your weakest point right now." Yukino Yukinoshita briefly explained the principle. "When the surface of the food comes into contact with 170°C hot oil, the water quickly vaporizes to form a steam layer, preventing the oil from directly contacting the food, reducing oil absorption. Continuous evaporation forms a porous structure on the surface of the food, resulting in a crispy texture..."

The cell phone rang again. There was more irritation in Yukinoshita Yukino's eyes. She raised her eyes and stared at Azuma Yunshan.

Dong Yunshan shook his phone to indicate that it was not his that was ringing.

Yukinoshita Yukino turned and stared at her sister.

Yukinoshita Haruno pointed to the side and said, "It's your phone."

Only then did Yukinoshita Yukino notice that the ringtone sounded familiar.

Because almost no one calls her, she almost forgot her cell phone ringtone.

"Hello, I'm Yukinoshita Yuki..." Before Yukinoshita Yukino could finish her words, a girl's voice came from the phone.

"Xue-no!" Just by listening to the voice, one can feel Yuigahama Yui's anticipation, "Let's go find Xixi to play!"

"Xixi..." Yukinoshita Yukino lowered her eyes slightly, "Xixi has returned home."

"Huh? Going home means...?"

"Mother Dongyun took her back yesterday."

"Is that so..." Yuigahama Yui couldn't hide her disappointment, but soon she had a new idea, "Then let's go shopping together! Komachi said there's a great new store that opened recently."
