People in Zongman: My Dimensional Cuisine

"Ok!"

Leonora laughed and said, "Look forward to it! Let's go back now."

"Okay!" xn

Erina and Nakiri Managi each held onto Shiraha's arm, while Alice, after drinking a cup of herbal tea, also found it quite delicious, but as the last one to wake up, she was the one carrying the thermos.

"Hey? Bai Yu, I have a question for you."

"Hmm? Rantabi, what's wrong?"

"Hehehe... Bai Yu, do you know what mala tang is?"

"Yes, I know. I quite like eating it."

"Let's make it and eat it tomorrow too!"

"That's no problem, it even saves us trouble."

"Great!" xn

Chapter 158: Jianbing Guozi and Grilled Cold Noodles May Cause Hair Loss (Please Subscribe~)

Erina and the others were really looking forward to it. Even Shiraha liked this snack, so it must be pretty good. Shiraha loves to eat dishes that offer a lot of freedom and a great atmosphere, so this mala tang (spicy hot pot) is probably going to be good too.

Lucifer asked in confusion, "Hey, Rantabi, what about the other snacks you were thinking of? Did you think of anything else?"

Rantabi nodded and said, "There's a lot. Besides the chicken feet you've eaten, there are all kinds of buns, wontons, and... grilled cold noodles..."

Katahara Sayaka paused for a moment, then said, "Huh? Wasn't that the cold noodles we had yesterday afternoon? You can grill those?! Can they even taste good...?"

The others also looked puzzled. Bai Yu smiled and said, "Rantabhi, I didn't expect you to have eaten grilled cold noodles before? To be honest, I haven't had this for more than two years."

"This is delicious! Although it's not a fancy dish, it still has its own unique charm. It's really good!"

Bai Yu nodded and said gently, "The cold noodles for grilled cold noodles are different from those for boiled cold noodles. I guess they don't have the cold noodles for grilled cold noodles here... It's also not easy to make them, so it's better to just go back to the shop and eat there."

Rantabi cheered and said, "Great! Grilled cold noodles! Spicy hot pot! Grass jelly! It's all here! Now I have snacks to watch TV!"

Erina and the others swallowed hard, suddenly becoming very curious about how China had developed so many strange and wonderful dishes. They were really curious.

Yuuko Ichihara asked with some anticipation, "Is the grilled cold noodles delicious?"

"Hmm! Two sheets of cold noodles, an egg, a grilled sausage, then brushed with various sauces, sprinkled with chopped green onions and cilantro. But I don't like adding green onions and cilantro, and there's also vinegar, which I tried but it wasn't very tasty..."

"It's soft, and the sauce is very flavorful. It's perfect for eating while watching TV. By the way, shops that sell grilled cold noodles usually also sell other things."

"For example... Jianbing Guozi, Egg Crepes, and stinky tofu! Jianbing Guozi is delicious, but I don't like eating fried dough sticks..."

Nakiri Managi swallowed hard and asked, "What's a jianbing guozi?"

"What I see is... a spoonful of batter on a baking sheet, spread it into a pancake, then add an egg. Make the pancake first, then you can add all sorts of fried skewers, sausages, etc. I still don't like adding scallions or cilantro; I think it tastes best eaten plain..."

Erina asked with some confusion, "So what kind of fruit is 'fruit'?"

"What fruit is it? But I didn't understand why it was called Jianbing Guozi at the time. Later I found out that this dish originated in China. In many parts of China, youtiao (fried dough sticks) are called da guozi, so the guozi in Jianbing Guozi is youtiao!"

"Huh?!" xn

Rantabi laughed and said, "Bai Yu! I was right!"

Bai Yu nodded and said gently, "It seems you really like street food stalls. That's right, this 'guozi' is actually fried dough sticks, but many people don't like them and will switch to something else. You can also add fried dough sticks to mala tang (spicy hot pot)."

Rantabi nodded and said, "Yeah! But I didn't add it. I felt it was too oily. Fried stinky tofu is delicious too, and it doesn't smell that bad!"

Ran Yakumo asked with some curiosity, "Fried...stinky tofu? Is it really delicious?"

"It's delicious! Lots of people love it. Hey, maybe we should travel to China sometime. Erina, you and Managi might not be able to accept it though."

"Hmm..." x2

Bai Yu smiled and said, "You seem to have forgotten that we can temporarily weaken God's Tongue with a very strong-flavored dish."

"Yes!" xn

Erina and Managi breathed a sigh of relief. The thought of the family going on a trip together, with them chatting and eating on the street while she could only watch, made her want to cry.

What other snacks are available?

Rantabi thought for a moment and said, "Lots of things...like fried yogurt, all kinds of milk tea, all kinds of spicy duck necks, and grilled skewers, spicy skewers, and so on."

Lucifer asked in confusion, "Spicy skewers? Skewers? What are all these...?"

"This..."

The group chatted as they walked towards the main house. As soon as they entered, they heard Kasugano Sora whisper, "How about... we eat first and then take a bath?"

Everyone fell silent for a moment. Bai Yu smiled and said, "Go take a good shower and change your clothes before preparing the food. It won't make a difference if you wait a little longer. Otherwise, be careful with your wet hair..."

Kobayashi Rindou waved his hand and said, "Caught a chill? A cold?"

Bai Yu shook his head and said, "No, wet hair can cause all sorts of problems, such as... hair loss."

"Pfft..." xn

Where did the concern come from? How did it turn into hair loss?! But it did make everyone's already good mood even more relaxed. Nakiri Managi said with a smile, "Then I'd better go take a good bath. I don't want to go bald."

"I'm going too!"

Yukari Yakumo asked in confusion, "Eh? Shiraha, aren't you going?"

“When Yonglin and I went out to buy swimsuits, we took a shower and didn’t go in the water again. There was no need. I’m going to prepare the ingredients.”

"Oh! Got it!"

After Yukari Yakumo and the others left, Shiraha smiled, shook his head, and said softly, "It looks like tonight's dinner will be quite interesting, but... I wonder what Leonora meant earlier..."

Meanwhile, Leonora, who was taking a shower, said softly, "Bai Yu... It's so wonderful that Alice succeeded... This girl made the right decision at the right age..."

On the other side, Kobayashi Rindou whispered, "Hmm... Leonora, Yuuka, Yuko... there's one left, who should I choose... Ah! So annoying! I guess I should just choose Lucy! I'll give Yumiko a surprise! That's decided!"

While they're still reminiscing about their previous confessions, thinking about other things, or wondering what to eat later, as long as they don't sleep, their train of thought won't stop, which makes the future even more meaningful.

Chapter 159 The Conversation Between Gentian and Yuuko, and the Activities of Totsuki Academy (Please Subscribe~)

At this moment, Yuko Ichihara was carefully combing her long hair. Yuko Ichihara's hair was the longest in the family and also the best in terms of quality. It was truly as shiny, beautiful, smooth, and silky as a waterfall.

Yuuko Ichihara has always been very concerned about her hair. Although there are no palace intrigues or dramatic events in her family, she still wants to improve herself to make herself more important in Bai Yu's eyes.

Yuuko Ichihara knew very well that when Shiraha and Yuuko Ichihara were together, Shiraha loved to play with Yuuko Ichihara's hair. It's worth mentioning that Yuuko Ichihara has always been very protective of her precious hair.

"Gentian, if you're here, just come in. What are you doing standing at the door?"

As Yuuko Ichihara combed her hair in front of the mirror, she casually remarked something. The next moment, Rindou Kobayashi opened the door and walked in, saying with some emotion, "Having magic is really convenient."

"I guess that's all it'll do. Hey, what are you doing here? You came without even drying your hair."

Kobayashi Rindou didn't say anything, walked to the side, picked up Ichihara Yuuko's hair dryer, and started drying his hair. After a while, Kobayashi Rindou said softly while drying his hair, "Your hair is really outrageous. If you weren't tall enough, your hair could be used as a mop."

"Get lost, you're the one who's a mop."

"Really! Zdada said this morning that he almost got his hair tied up. Why did you grow it so long?"

Yuko Ichihara put down the comb, tossed her long hair, and then said gently, "Because Shiraha likes it."

"You knew it! Seriously, you haven't made a move at all, even though you work this hard every day."

Yuko Ichihara sighed and casually pulled a small white strip from the pocket of her nightgown. Rindou Kobayashi glanced at it and then laughed, saying, "Oh dear, it hasn't been that long. It'll be two lines sooner or later."

"I hope so. You have no idea, but now, whenever I see Orange and Sota, I feel that kids are just too cute. I used to find them quite annoying, but now I think it would be really fun for a family to be together."

Kobayashi Rindou nodded and said, "That's true. Lucy said the same thing. I saw Kyoko and her family eating together at the same table before, and it looked very warm and cozy."

"Yes, it does look very cozy, but now that I think about it, having a child means you can't smoke, you can't drink, and there are so many other things to be careful about. I've heard that childbirth is very painful..."

"So?"

"Hmm... So, if my child doesn't listen to me in the future, I'll... I'll... I'll..."

Kobayashi Rindou laughed and said, "Come on! You wouldn't be willing to do that, would you? I bet you wouldn't even be willing to do something a little heavier."

"Sigh... What happened to the saying that a mother's status rises with her son? I feel like having a child will only diminish my own status."

"Regret it?"

"Let's reduce the number of students, it doesn't matter. Besides, she might not be really disobedient. Maybe she'll be very well-behaved. With her parents' mindset and interpersonal skills, she'll definitely be very sensible."

Rindou Kobayashi rolled his eyes and said, "You're just bragging. Hey? Yuuko, how long does it take you to make one piece of clothing?"

"What do you mean by making a garment? An overcoat?"

"Correct."

"Not counting the planning, this is the fastest it can be in a day. If we use magic, it might take less than ten minutes."

Kobayashi Rindou's lips curled slightly before he said softly, "Eh? That's really impressive..."

Yuko Ichihara asked in confusion, "What is it? What are you planning to do? You didn't come to me all of this, did you?"

"Although these aren't the main points, it's okay to chat about them. But you're right, I do have other things to do. Come find me after dinner tonight."

Yuuko Ichihara paused for a moment, then asked in confusion, "Huh? Looking for you? What's up?"

"You'll find out then, won't you? You have a mission, understand? Be prepared."

Yuko Ichihara looked at Rindou Kobayashi with a puzzled expression, but seeing Rindou's serious look, she didn't say anything. However, Yuko Ichihara suddenly thought of something and asked in confusion, "Eh? Am I alone?"

"No, after careful consideration, there are still three people left. You don't need to worry about them. Just come find me when the time comes. Do you think I would cheat you?"

"Yeah... Alright then, if there's nothing else, let's go. I'm starving. Rantabee was talking about spicy hot pot and grilled cold noodles, and it's made me hungry."

Kobayashi Rindou nodded and said, "Me too... Oh right, I think I remember that chicken dish that Shiraha made, but I can't remember the name. I only know that it was said to be a very delicious dish."

"Eh? Really?"

When it comes to food, who in our family has more authority than me?

"That's true... after all, you're a foodie."

"Please say 'gourmet,' thank you!"

"No, I won't! Don't be shy!"

The two chatted as they walked toward the kitchen, running into Yumiko and the others along the way. Alice took a good shower, washed off the remaining pen marks on her face, and then put on a nice makeup.

"Hey, Alice, why are you running so fast? Where are you going?"

"Um...I..."

Lucifer said irritably, "Alright, alright, I know what you're going to do. Bai Yu isn't going to run away. Be careful, or Leonora will see you and scold you again."

Alice sighed and said, "Ugh... this is a headache... Anyway, Sister Longdan, Sister Xiaotao... I have something to ask you two."

"Eh?" x2

"I mean... there's an autumn foliage viewing event and something in September, as well as a school festival... I think the Elite Ten of the third year are going to participate too, are you two going back?"

Momoko Akane paused for a moment and said, "Oh dear, how could I forget about that... Gentian Cotton, shall we go back?"

"Well... let's go back. It's only for a short while anyway. Just treat it as a daytime outing."

"Ok!"

Lucifer and the others looked puzzled, but didn't ask anything. When they got to the kitchen, they saw someone brushing something on a huge iron plate, scrubbing chicken nuggets.

Saki wasn't wearing her usual military cap; instead, she was wearing a nightgown and leaned over to take a look, asking in confusion, "What are you doing?"

"Cooked oil with some sauce added."

"Huh? What are you making... so many green and red peppers."

"You'll find out soon enough. Hey? Leonora, what are you doing?"

Leonora, wearing a long dress, leaned closer to take a look before saying in confusion, "Hmm... why does this chicken look a little incomplete?"
