Chapter 306 Her Little Jiujiu

At eight o'clock in the evening, Tokyo fell into darkness.

In the dim light, the commercial buildings in the distance are still lit up with lights. Occasionally there are white-collar workers returning home late walking in a hurry on the street. The sound of high heels tapping on the ground is clearly audible. The gap between day and night is reflected in the street lights. Drawn further and further away in the darkness that cannot be illuminated, this fast-paced and prosperous city seemed to have finally slowly fallen silent at this moment.

Beiyuan Rinyin, who was sitting in the passenger seat and fastened her seat belt, turned her eyebrows and looked out the window.

Those beautiful eyes reflected the rapidly retreating city street scene.

Today's two meals were enjoyed by both guests and host. Even Ejima Miao, who was usually relatively restrained, relaxed a little today and no longer was so entangled in the "Code of Chamberlains". Her parents were as usual, He didn't ask about Che's work matters, but just chatted about home affairs and trivial matters in life that were either interesting or boring.

She didn't know whether this was good in other places, but in their home, in her opinion, this was the best.

Shaking his head, Beiyuan Linyin turned his eyebrows and his eyes fell on Beichuan Che's profile.

As the warm orange light of the street lamp continued to overlap with the shadows in the car, his face also gained a sense of depth.

"Che."

After hesitating for a moment, Beiyuan Linyin took the initiative to start the conversation.

"Ok?"

Beichuan Che, who was driving the car, responded, but did not turn his head to look at Beiyuan Rinyin as usual. Most of his attention was still focused on the road in front of him.

"Is this dinner good for tonight?"

Beiyuan Linyin shrank into the seat, adjusted her sitting posture slightly, and sat in the seat in a more comfortable posture.

"Really good."

After glancing at the traffic lights ahead, Che Kitagawa lightly tapped the brakes, slowed down the car, and turned on the turn signal.

Luckily for them, the traffic light just changed from red to green.

"Just good?"

Beiyuan Rinyin put her elbow on the passenger armrest and propped up her chin.

"There may be some surprises and surprises." Beichuan Che chuckled, and naturally heard the meaning of Beiyuan Linyin's words. He paused and added, "I really didn't expect that, aunt's The craftsmanship will be so outstanding.”

He knew that Beiyuan Risa was responsible for the food at Beiyuan's house.

After all, my fiancée would mention this from time to time.

However, he really never thought that Beiyuan Risa's cooking skills would improve so much after more than half a year.

If the scoring was not so strict, the aunt who was always smiling could get a very high score.

Especially after he was used to eating dishes made by Eshima Myo, such a surprise was even more rare.

It is no exaggeration to say that now that they occasionally go out to eat together as a family, he rarely feels like 'Hey, he did a good job'.

But if you think about it carefully, it is normal. After all, it is easy for people to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

"Mom's cooking is always delicious."

Beiyuan Linyin straightened her small nose, and her delicate little face was full of pride.

"but……"

The next second, Beiyuan Rinyin changed the topic, raised her eyebrows, and looked at Miao Eshima who was sitting in the back seat and listening to their chat through the rearview mirror in the car.

"Compared to the Cooking Immortal, he is still far behind."

She blinked, and there was more ridicule and teasing in her tone, but it was more of heartfelt recognition.

Myo Eshima's cooking skills are truly incredible.

"...hay?"

Ejima Miao was stunned for a moment, not understanding why the topic suddenly turned to him, but soon, the valet came back to his senses and looked at the man who was also in the car through the rearview mirror. The line of sight of Rinne Hoien is intertwined in light and shadow.

When their eyes met, Beiyuan Linyin was the first to chuckle uncontrollably.

"I'm just complimenting you."

After coughing slightly and trying to calm down her emotions, Beiyuan Rinne raised her eyebrows at Ejima Myo in the rearview mirror and made a cute face.

"But Miss Linyin's tone just now doesn't seem right."

Miao Eshima tilted her head, and the shadow in the car covered the slightly raised corners of her mouth.

She liked to do something bad at such times.

"This is called deep love and deep responsibility."

Beiyuan Linyin had a straight face, but the corners of her mouth could not help but raise slightly.

She didn't believe it herself.

But, it's not a big deal.

The wisest approach is to remain unchanged in the face of ever-changing situations.

"Ah~"

Ejima Miao showed a look of disbelief.

"Humph."

Beiyuan Linyin snorted a little arrogantly, did not say anything, just rolled her eyes at Miao charmingly, and then chose the tried and tested method of breaking the situation - forcibly changing the topic.

"Speaking of which, we are going back the day after tomorrow."

Beiyuan Linyin paused and mentioned this matter that made her feel inexplicably empty.

"uh-huh."

Bei Chuan Che took up the conversation quite cooperatively.

In fact, according to their original plan, they had to go back the day after tomorrow.

But after discussion, both Beiyuan Rinne and Eshima Myo wanted to stay at Wutong Yaen for a few more days, so their return was naturally postponed by one day.

"After we go back, our winter vacation will only have one week left."

Ejima Miao, who was sitting in the back row, raised her head and looked at the dark roof of the car, feeling a little emotional for a moment.

She hadn't felt it before, but now that she thought about it, she suddenly realized that time passed so quickly. It seemed like yesterday that the winter vacation happened.

"Time flies so fast."

God knows whether it was driven by Eshima Myo's movements, Beiyuan Rinne also leaned back on the seat and looked at the same car roof that was submerged in darkness.

"But the beginning of school and holidays seem to be the same for our danasama."

Ejima Miao did not continue to be sentimental, but changed the topic in another direction.

"That's true." Beiyuan Linyin raised her hand in agreement, "He completes what needs to be done step by step every day, exercising in the morning, then writing, taking a lunch break, and listening to music in the afternoon. Read a book.

“Let me say something that even I think is a bit outrageous.

"It's like our danasama has no desire to rest."

From the time he arrived at Wutong Yayuan, in Beiyuan Rinyin's impression, the only time Kitagawa Che could really talk about 'rest' was on the day of welcoming the New Year. Apart from that day, he was almost there all the rest of the time. Follow the schedule before the holiday.

If she hadn't clearly known that it was winter vacation, she would have mistakenly thought it was a Saturday or weekend during school.

"Linyin, you are wrong. Didn't I say it before? The time I spend with you is rest for me."

Beichuan Che coughed slightly and corrected Beiyuan Rinyin's statement.

It's not that he has no idea of ​​rest, but his rest time is relatively fragmented. If there are many things to do every day, it is actually not much, but that is the difficulty. It requires persistence every day.

"Look."

Beiyuan Rinyin turned around, looked at Ejima Miao, and gave her a look of "Look."

"Young Master is like this." Ejima Miaoxin showed a coquettish look and cooperated with Beiyuan Rinne, "At this time, you will say such beautiful words to change the topic."

"..."

Hearing this, Beichuan Che didn't say anything, he understood it too well.

At this time, his own servant is in a state of 'rebellion'. If he insists on talking to each other, he doesn't know how long he will be teased by these two girls.

"Oh, I don't blame him, who told..." Beiyuan Linyin pursed her lips and pretended to be pitiful, "Are we just going to do this?" "Yes."

Ejima Myo sighed quietly, and then looked at each other with Rinne Beiyuan who just turned around.

Then, neither of them could hold back their laughter.

Listening to the laughter in the car, Kitagawa Che's mood improved unconsciously.

He shook his head and slowed down.

They were almost back to the port area. At the current speed, they would be home in about 10 minutes.

"But then again, you promised Rina-san this morning."

Putting away his smile, Beiyuan Rinyin mentioned another thing with some gloating.

This morning, Rina Toshima had been complaining about the chef of Toshima's family for a long time in their small group.

It's not that the food made by that chef is not delicious. In terms of taste, there is absolutely nothing wrong with the food made by that chef, and it can be said to be delicious in the conventional sense.

But there is a gap between 'delicious' and 'delicious'.

Compared with most restaurants outside, the cooking skills of the chef they hired cannot be said, but once the comparison object is replaced by Myo Eshima, it can only be said that there is a gap between chefs. .

Especially for a gourmet like her.

Unexpectedly, Eshima Myo will also fine-tune the taste of certain dishes according to everyone's taste. With such meticulous 'care', the taste of many dishes will further widen the gap.

If you are used to eating good food, then you will eat ordinary food. It won't be a big deal in the short term. I thought that if I endure it, I will be able to expand my horizons, but it will be almost ten days in a blink of an eye, and no matter how good of a character I am, I will lose my patience.

However, Rina Toshima is already used to excellent cooking skills, so she can't help but feel even more disparate.

"That doesn't matter."

Eshima Miao was stunned for a moment, then smiled.

For a person who is passionate about cooking, there is nothing more gratifying than being loved by the people around you.

It is no exaggeration to say that as a chef, it is a great blessing to have a 'taster' like Rina Toshimaro.

"It doesn't matter?"

Beiyuan Linyin tilted his head and repeated this sentence.

"Yes." Ejima nodded, "Just make more food. At most, cook more rice? Even if Rina-san can eat, it's not too outrageous."

She knew the portion of each meal at the Kitagawa family. Rina Toshimaro ate a lot, but if she had to say it, it was actually not bad, not to the point of exaggeration.

"Do you really think so?"

There was a faint smile on Beiyuan Linyin's face.

She suddenly discovered that this emotionally sensitive servant sometimes seemed not as smart as she imagined.

According to what Tashi Sei Rina said in the line group, it has basically reached the point where "the mountains and rivers are exhausted, and the ammunition and food are exhausted".

But based on her understanding of Toshimaru Rina, the neighbor's sister does have certain requirements when it comes to food, but she is not that picky.

This time, the so-called "Miao, I want to eat the food you cooked" is not so much that I am completely controlled by the desire of words, but it is better to say that I want to see someone.

It's just that the person involved behaved more tactfully and covertly.

"There is a word to describe it, beautiful and delicious."

Ejima Miao pursed her lips and looked out the window.

Her face was reflected in the rear window.

She knew very well in her heart why Rina Tashisei was so pressed for time, or took it so seriously. In the final analysis, it was just to see the young master as quickly as possible.

But she knew that she had no special ideas.

She didn't think anything of such little thoughts. On the contrary, she thought...it was pretty good.

Looking at it from another perspective, doesn't this indirectly prove that my young master is very charming?

"Ok."

Beiyuan Linyin understood what the attendant meant, and could only sigh helplessly.

In this regard, she boasted that she was not as discerning as this close attendant.

"By the way, I remember there's nothing left in the refrigerator over in Bunkyo District, right?"

When it came to returning to Wenjing District, Kitagawa Che immediately realized this problem.

Regarding the riddle between his fiancée and Ejima Myo, he was too lazy to guess and had no intention of guessing.

He was more concerned about the refrigerator at home and whether he had to work overtime that day to buy groceries in advance.

"Yes."

Ejima Miao nodded. Before moving to Wutong Yayuan temporarily, they had finished all the ingredients in the refrigerator.

"Is there not a single bit left?"

To be on the safe side, Kitagawa Che asked again cautiously.

"Yes."

This time the person who answered him was not Myo Eshima, but Rinne Hoien who was sitting in the passenger seat.

"I cooked the food on the last day." Beiyuan Linyin sighed, "For the evening meal, we had already finished all the fruits, vegetables and meat. The only thing left was probably those few A sterile egg?”

"Then we will really have to make another trip at once." Myo Eshima took over the words, "But why don't we buy it here? The prices in the shopping street here are similar to those over there."

"Hmm, more ceremonial?"

Hearing this, Beiyuan Linyin turned around and said this half seriously and half jokingly.

"..."

Ejima Myo retracted her gaze from the window and was silent for a moment.

How could she answer the call?
"Ahem, in short, Miaoti's plan is also acceptable."

Beiyuan Linyin, who felt that what he just said was a bit silly, coughed heavily and picked up the conversation abruptly.

"Didn't Shiori also say that he would be back the day after tomorrow?"

Ejima Miao smiled evilly in her heart and pretended to mention this matter accidentally.

"Yes."

Beiyuan Linyin frowned calmly, but nodded in response.

"Then if we wait until we get back to buy groceries, we might have to trouble Shiori and Rina-san."

Ejima Myo paused and added this sentence.

And with the temperaments of Shiori Kashiwahara and Rina Toshisei, these two people would definitely want to drag Kitagawa Teru along when shopping for groceries.

Because they haven't seen each other for a long time.

"Then we'd better buy it the day before we go back."

Almost instantly, Beiyuan Rinyin made a judgment.

For her, what is the optimal solution is already in front of her.

The sense of ritual is just a joke.

At this time, she knew very clearly what to choose.

"Then please ask Miss Linyin to come with me."

The corners of Miao Eshima's lips raised slightly, and she calmly looked away, hiding her cheeks in the shadows.

As for the little ones in Miss Linyin's heart, she knows.

But, as a qualified valet, she will keep the other person's secret~
