Chapter.4 Hamburger and Boy

The boy picked up the egg. His forehead was full of sweat. Even though he sat down and stood up repeatedly, he did not show any signs of difficulty.

However, unlike the boy, Grayk was expressing his difficulties with his whole body.

For Gray, who was born as a nobleman, this was the first simple labor he did in his life. Therefore, unlike a boy who was skilled, his entire body was covered in sweat. My face is distorted and my body is so tired that it almost kills me.

Grake was exhausted and asked the boy next to him.

“Isn’t it hard?”

“are you all right. Rather, you are the son of a high-ranking family, right? “There’s even an escort.”

The boy said, looking at Howie who was standing quietly behind Gray.

“Well, that’s true.”

“You know, can you get out of the way? “That’s exactly what I wanted to dig up!”

The girl found the bamboo shoots at Gray’s feet and shouted.

“Oh yeah?”

Grayke, startled, stepped aside. In this place, he is rather an embarrassment. That hurt my pride a little. Still, I didn’t show it and started imitating the girl’s actions with the intention of doing a little better.

“I will definitely give my mother a gift. With my own strength. “Without anyone else’s help.”

The boy left the girl and Grace behind and continued to crawl through the forest, muttering non-stop, looking for bamboo shoots. It was a tremendous force of action. Graeke let out an exclamation again.

“What was it like at other restaurants before coming here?”

Grayke, who was suddenly curious about this, asked the girl in front of him who was digging for bamboo shoots while holding a tool with her small fern hands.

“I got kicked out of the door. “They don’t even listen to my story.”

“I see.”

Graeke nodded. Then he cut the bamboo shoot with his mouth closed. It was difficult, but the last bit of pride Gray had was not to let the situation spread to a girl younger than him who could not rest.

“Quite a lot, huh? I also collected a lot of eggs. Okay, I passed.”

When we returned in the evening, the hands of the three people were all covered in dirt. It took quite a long time since I was asked to work starting from lunch. Thanks to this, I didn’t have to come to Limon Forest to pick up eggs for a while.

It is beautiful to see people working hard to achieve something.

Because I lived like that too.

I wasn’t strong from the beginning. I rolled and rolled on the floor.

I almost died and tried to die.

I have crossed the threshold of death countless times.

I survived only because of my persistence. Because all I had was hard work.

So, if they just pretended to work, they wouldn’t have given anything. But the dirt on their hands is well worth it.

“Then will you wash your hands and call your mother? As promised, I will prepare a dish for the whole family to eat.”

“Really?”

“Of course.”

When I emphasized it again, the boy shouted with great excitement.

“thank you! thank you! thank you! “Ren, let’s go quickly!”

“Yes, brother!”

The boy went down the hill without letting go of his sister’s hand, fearing that he might lose her. Graeke looked at it and opened his mouth.

“It was a somewhat embarrassing day. Because I didn’t do as much work as that girl… . But I also worked. For the first time… .”

“Well done. “The next lord.”

Graeke had a blank expression on his face. Maybe it was because it was difficult, but it didn’t seem like that. It looks like he’s thinking about something.

I left the boy, picked up the basket, and returned to the restaurant.

I don’t know their true value in this world, but both eggs and bamboo shoots were worth a lot of money. So strictly speaking, I am not doing free labor right now. I have no intention of working for free.

“Aren’t you the next lord, Baron? When my family comes, will we eat together? “I will pay you for the amount of work you do.”

“Yes, that’s right! i get it. I want to eat too. “I’m going to eat it all because I earned it with my own efforts.”

I smiled at Gray, who nodded vigorously, and entered the kitchen. To prepare dishes.

As soon as I did that, the boy and girl came back.

With a woman with a shabby appearance.

As soon as the lady saw me, she lowered her head and opened her mouth with an embarrassed look on her face.

“Oh, I’m sorry. I heard that my kids were causing trouble, but what are they cooking? . sorry! sorry!”

As soon as the boy’s mother arrived, she didn’t even think about straightening her back and just repeatedly said she was sorry.

“no. “I think I was trying to save up money I didn’t have and give you a gift. I don’t think that’s something to be sorry about, but if you really think that way, I think it would be worse.”

“But I know better than anyone else that it’s only a small amount of money. How can you cook food that even the kids can eat with that kind of money? . The kids there were talking about meat dishes and all… .”

“you’re right. It’s a dinner party. You don’t have to worry about that part. I appreciate his filial piety, but I can’t give it to him for free, so I let him help with something. Oh, it wasn’t anything strange, so don’t worry. Among the ingredients needed for the store, there are some that grow in the Limon Forest, and I just asked them to help me dig them up. Isn’t it worse to reject a gift you give to your mother with legitimately earned money? “Look at the children’s faces.”

I almost whispered at the end. Then the woman looked at the children. The face of a boy and a girl mixed with worry and anticipation.

When she saw her children, the woman pursed her mouth as if trying to hold back something. And he nodded.

“Is that so… . Then please give me just that much. Just that much. “I will be indebted to you.”

“Don’t worry about that, just sit at this table.”

After giving directions, I started heating the iron plate. It’s a meat dish.

I’ll show you a proper course meal.

The first dish to be served was chicken soup.

The chicken itself is not used.

I just use chicken broth. Although Palenque cuisine itself is prohibited, eggs and Palenque broth are excellent ingredients that are used in various dishes to give them a deep flavor.

First, dice various vegetables and fry them. The point is to provide green onion oil. The more vegetables, the better. That way, that woman will also feel less burdened by money.

The chicken broth made by boiling Palenque has a deep flavor with Munton mushroom powder, pepper and salt. Add this broth to the stir-fried vegetables and simmer. This is the completion of a simple vegetable soup.

The highlight is the taste of vegetables.

“This is not the main dish. This soup will whet your appetite. “Taste it slowly.”

“wow! “Mom, I guess the dish comes out multiple times!”

The girl stamps her feet. I looked divine. The woman just nods while looking at her daughter.

The girl’s eyes also lit up as she lifted the spoon.

Grake was already gulping down the soup.

I immediately prepared the second dish.

Bamboo shoots dug up by children.

There is no other healthy food like this.

As soon as I return from the forest, I peel the raw bamboo shoots that I boiled and cut them diagonally. Then, cut some beef and raw monton mushrooms diagonally and stir-fry them together, season with soy sauce, then wash and boil the green vegetables and season with salt.

Bamboo shoots infused with meat seasoning and the taste of seasoned monton mushrooms.

It’s nothing special, but it’s very nutritious.

The dishes we had shared were handed out again.

“This is the bamboo shoot dish I picked up earlier. Each of you worked hard to find it, so don’t leave anything behind and eat it all. “It’s a very healthy dish.”

“Oh my goodness!”

The woman let out an exclamation.

As expected, this time, Gray took the bamboo shoot to his mouth first.

“This is crunchy. Something crunchy and a clean taste spreads through it. “Isn’t it better to eat it with the mushrooms and meat below?”

I shout out while appraising myself. boy and girl. And my mother ate bamboo shoots non-stop. I am satisfied to see that.

I returned to the kitchen again.

A meat dish for Gray, who had already eaten hamburgers with the boy’s mother. And I plan to serve hamburgers to the boy and girl. This is the main dish.

First, place a thick piece of Beleran meat on an iron plate. Veleren, a monster with strong vitality, was eaten raw among mercenaries. It is famous for being parasite-free.

The Beleren meat began to cook from the outside.

Cheeeeeeeek!

Sizzling. The smell and sound of cooking meat makes you feel the gaze of the table outside.

Beleren meat that is completely cooked on the outside. But the inside is still red. It’s like when you cook beef, the center is red.

Yes, this is the point. Belleren meat is delicious only when eaten in this condition.

The undercooked center of bellelen meat. Cut out only the center. So put it on two plates.

The sauce is based on chicken broth, flavored with red wine Chambertin, then added and simmered with monton mushrooms. The hamburger sauce is demi-glace sauce, but this bellelen meat is based on chicken broth.

Pour the sauce on top of the meat to complete the Veloren steak.

And then I quickly make two hamburgers.

The boy and girl’s eyes widened.

“Wow!”

There are loud exclamations of exclamation.

“I’ve never eaten such luxurious cuisine before… . “What’s the price over there?”

The lady gave me a look filled with concern. I shook my head.

“It’s Beleren meat. I cooked it because I had to eat it by today. Otherwise, I have to throw it away.”

This is a lie. Still, it is necessary to provide peace of mind depending on the customer’s situation. Belleren meat is, of course, the highest quality meat caught yesterday. Still, it’s better to say this than to make them behave.

“Oh this is amazing! I put it in my mouth and it melted together with the sauce! “This is my first time doing something like this.”

Graeke continued to let out exclamations. The boy’s mother also cut the Beleren meat with a knife. And chew.

The boy and girl looked at the hamburger in front of them without even touching it. It looked like he wanted to eat it very much, but he stopped his action, probably because he wanted his mother to enjoy it.

A face that wants to see a reaction.

A face full of anticipation.

Their mother, noticing their gaze, eventually burst into tears.

“Hey guys. This is my mom’s first time cooking like this in her life. Thank you, thank you. “It’s really delicious.”

“mom!”

“are you okay. delicious. “Yours also looks delicious, so go ahead and eat them.”

When the woman started eating meat again, the boy and girl also took a bite of the hamburger.

“Wow!”

The girl’s happy face was extremely cute.

The meal ended with dessert. The boy and girl, led by the lady, kept nodding their heads and left the restaurant.

“If I succeed, I will definitely come back again!”

The boy shouted like that. okay. Thank you for coming back. After seeing that, Gray asked me.

“No matter how you look at it, isn’t it more expensive than the level of work done? “I’ve never tried cooking like this at home.”

“It can’t be. Cooking at our house isn’t that expensive. “Because it’s my iron rule.”

And actually, the price of the bamboo shoots that the kids dug up is worth that much. Hehehe. I don’t see any loss. That’s the man I am.

“Still, I think there was a lot to learn. This and that. “You are like a teacher.”

“If you are grateful, you will exempt me from taxes later when you become a lord, right?”

“I don’t think that will work. “I heard a good lord doesn’t give preferential treatment?”

“haha.”

You learn quickly.

“Instead, I will come more often. “You are on my side, right?”

“Maybe so.”

Are you on my side? This is a line I’ve heard a lot somewhere.

Anyway, after hearing my answer, Grake left the restaurant with a very satisfied face.

The money I earned was 500 runes. For the time being, you don’t have to go out to get eggs and bamboo shoots, so you get your money’s worth.

I went up to the second floor. Lulin didn’t wake me up on purpose. I thought there would be a commotion.

But what doesn’t really happen if you don’t wake it up? If you leave it as is, it will last for a hundred years. This dragon.

I shook my head and went up to the second floor.

Still, I have to feed them.
